Adventurer of the Elf World

Chapter 853: Mountain Town

It can be seen that those people left here in a very casual and careless state.

But what could cause this?

Mechanical failure of the power plant?

Or natural disasters such as fire and earthquake?

Xiu did not waste too much time outside and soon got up to explore in depth.

The front is still an office area. This should be the place where workers supervise the operating status of the equipment. Xiu looked at the large screen and abandoned computers in the hall and felt familiar.

There are some other things that are actually similar, mainly the control room that controls the operation of the power plant.

But I don’t know what this place has experienced at that time. Most of the equipment has failed, and some have even been damaged. You can still see traces of being charred by electric arcs on the instruments.

However, it has not burned even after being destroyed like this. It can only be said that it took a lot of effort to design and build it.

After exploring these fancy areas in front, Xiu did not find any traces of elves.

There is not even any trace of Rattata. This abnormal situation makes Xiu more vigilant.

After passing through the control area here, it is not directly connected to the main body behind, but needs to pass through a section of road.

When Xiu came here, he was still a little surprised.

The square building was a giant made of steel and concrete, with thick cables connecting all the way from the building.

It must be said that human creativity is very terrifying, such a large building rose from the ground in the ravine.

Standing in front of it, Xiu couldn't help feeling a little insignificant.

However, Xiu didn't linger too much, but walked in directly.

Xiu didn't know much about power plants, but he could distinguish some basic types and functions.

It can be seen that this power plant should be thermal power generation, but the technology in this world is often a bit strange, and there should be some technology he doesn't understand.

Such a large abandoned power plant actually has no electric elves.

Regarding the electric elves, Xiu thought it was normal, because it had been out of operation for many years. Even if it attracted electric elves at the beginning, it would slowly dissipate after the power was cut off here.

But what he found strange was that there were no elves here.

They can be seen on some other buildings, but not here.

"Let's take a look from the outside." Xiu felt the picture in his mind, and the next second he appeared in the air outside.

After flying around the huge building, Xiu really found some interesting traces.

That was the area where the power plant transmits electricity to the outside.

There was obvious damage on the outer wall and the cable.

There was no electricity at this time, so Xiu was not afraid. He stood directly on the cable joint and leaned over to observe the traces carefully.

The charred burn marks should have been attacked by something that damaged the outer wall at that time, but it also looked like the traces of arc burns caused by discharge.

So many years have passed, Xiu really couldn't judge the situation at that time based on this information, and could only make bold assumptions.

"This mark looks like it was caused by lightning." Xiu took out his camera and took a picture of the mark and muttered in a low voice.

And Casey on the side looked over here and said lightly: "Maybe it was just a Pokémon like Bobo standing on it that caused an electric shock."

"Indeed~ But this also shows that the closure of the power plant is most likely not due to design defects and backward technology as those people say." Xiu put away the camera and looked around, as if he wanted to find more traces to support his point of view.

After ascending to a high altitude, Xiu originally wanted to find more traces to piece together the situation at that time, but with the vision brought by the elevation, he soon saw some traces of buildings in the north of the power plant.

"It seems that there are people living there. Go over there and take a look. Maybe there will be more gains."

Xiu did not dwell on this empty shell. If he wanted to know what happened here faster, he had to find the witnesses of that year.

Xiu's figure disappeared directly in the air, and the next second he landed in the sky above that place.

Looking down, you can see that this is an ordinary town, and there is also a spirit center.

Xiu found a remote corner and walked around the town.

Some buildings here do not look like they have a history of more than ten years. On the contrary, they are older. It seems that the town did not appear after the power plant.

However, the power plant should have brought prosperity to the town at that time.

Because some modern buildings are concentrated in the south of the town, they should be industries related to the power plant at that time, but now they have become residential areas.

The personnel composition of the town is basically middle-aged and elderly, just like most towns. Even if there are young people, they are left-behind children under ten years old.

The town was not big, and Xiu walked around quickly, and finally stopped in front of an old house.

Xiu just asked around, and this is the mayor's house.

Under the shade of the tree in front of the house, there was an old man half-lying on a chair, and he looked particularly leisurely.

"Grandpa~"

Xiu approached and greeted him, but the old man didn't seem to hear him, and only opened his eyes slowly and looked at the person after he called him repeatedly.

But his slightly turbid eyes were a little confused, as if he didn't remember whose child this was.

"Hello, grandpa, I'm a traveler passing through the town. I heard that grandpa is the mayor, and I want to ask you about some things about the town."

"Oh oh oh!" The old man seemed to react, got up from the recliner and walked towards the house, "Come in and have a glass of water first."

Xiu followed him without hesitation.

The house has a history, and you can feel the historical atmosphere from the wood used to build it, but it is well maintained and there is no problem.

There is a living room at the entrance, and the set of log tables and chairs in the middle also looks like they were handed down.

The old man led Xiu in and sat down, then picked up the kettle and poured a glass of water for Xiu, then slowly said: "I grew up in the town since I was a child, just ask if you have any questions."

"It's like this, I'm a traveler, recording the places I've walked, and I want to know the development history of this town."

Xiu didn't ask about the power plant directly, but chose to slowly transition with the town as the topic, otherwise he was worried that it would arouse suspicion if he was too deliberate.

Because he didn't know whether the closure of the power plant had anything to do with the town.

In the subsequent chat, Xiu learned about the situation of this town, which did exist in the previous kingdom.

Because there was a river flowing out from the mountains and then flowing into the sea, bringing a fertile field here, and the sea was not far to the east, so it was a grain-producing place during the kingdom period.

Moreover, this is a relatively good location to enter the mountains. It can shorten most of the journey and directly enter the mountains to bring out the resources in the mountains. There are also many trainers and people picking herbs coming and going.
