Elf life

As the gravel barrier was breached by the combined attack, the memory scene that Gardevoir wanted to show Charmander officially came to an end.

【That’s it for now, Charmander.】

Hey, received!

I already know all about the story about strange power and the Yokan of the Forest, ah no, to be precise, the story about strange power and the enchanting-eyed butler.

Thank you Gardevoir.

【You're welcome,】

[Then, there are more important things outside waiting for you to complete. Of course, you will get the answer to this story in a while. 】

Charmander felt that Gardevoir's resonant aura was getting weaker and weaker.

The surrounding space began to fade away,

And he is about to wake up.

"Please wait a moment longer, Gardevoir, so the resonance ends like this?"

Swish swish swish, brush——

(The resonance officially ends and the surrounding space returns to normal)

By the time Charmander reacted again, Gardevoir's pure white space had long since disappeared, and in front of him was Pikachu, who was already worried and could no longer worry.

"Charmander!!!"

Next, Charmander looked around and made sure that he was lying on a warm little bed.

The light beside him was soft, and it was obvious that it was inside a certain building in the Haoli tribe. The beams and other structures were also very strong, and there were even a lot of fitness equipment used to train muscles piled nearby.

"Woooooooo, it's great that you're okay, it really scared me to death, Charmander!" Pikachu almost cried.

"I'm sorry Pikachu, it's my fault for making you worry again."

The moment he finished speaking, Pikachu quickly shook his drooping little head, and the two little beasts lost their strength:

"No, it was my failure to help that put Charmander in danger."

"Little Charmander, you must be seriously injured. Fortunately, the brothers from the Haoli tribe didn't make things difficult for us, and even let you live here directly..."

Live here?

By the way, what is this house?

The next moment, I saw that the leader of Wei Li had been waiting at the door for a long time, waiting for the little fire dragon to wake up.

"This is my house. I hope Captain Mo Jin doesn't mind. We only have so many accommodations in Qishan."

Um, the room of the strange force leader!

Sure enough, everything went as Gardevoir expected. After that, Pikachu was not attacked at all, but was directly entertained by Wei Li as a distinguished guest of the gold-touching sect.

Later, he simply let Captain Mojin and Charmander go to his room to rest temporarily, and even treated Pikachu to a dinner table.

Now Charmander has woken up,

It was already dark outside the house, and time passed very quickly. Guai Li motioned to the tribal brothers to prepare some simple refreshments and fruits to see if Captain Mojin wanted to eat them.

Charmander: "Thank you for the treat, I'm fine now."

Pikachu breathed a sigh of relief, but Charmander couldn't just rest like this. The most critical purchase negotiation hadn't been completed yet.

Then the little fire dragon suddenly said seriously:

"Well, our visit to the Banshan faction's territory this time is actually to seek cooperation in steel products. I don't know what your wishes and bids are."

The leader of the strange force quickly replied:

"I have already heard your junior brother explain the whole story clearly."

"Our tribe has been in troubled times recently. Please forgive me for any offense I have made in the past."

"There is no need to bid, the forest yokan is the best thank you gift."

!

Then, Guai Li began to talk sincerely about the various major events that had happened to the Haoli tribe recently.

The first was an uncharacteristic shutdown.

The Haoli Tribe, which was originally open all year round, had to shorten its opening hours due to the sudden reduction in steel production a year and a half ago, and is scheduled to open the Tribe every winter in the future.

A large number of old customers have been lost, and orders are getting lower month by month.

It's not that they don't want to do business, but the tribe's current low steel production has made it almost impossible to do business.

Little Charmander suddenly realized:

"I see, is that why you went to such a dangerous place alone some time ago to look for the legendary Muchen Steel?"

【!】The monster was stunned in place!

Pikachu innocently asked in a low voice:

"Hey, Charmander, why are you saying strange things again after you woke up? We haven't heard of Muchen Steel or anything like that."

Charmander slightly moved his claws in front of his mouth in a not-too-loud motion, and Pikachu immediately understood.

Wei Li: "Ah hahaha, nothing can escape your eyes, Captain Jin."

"Not bad, but it's a pity that it failed."

Charmander:......

"Until now, we are still trying to restore the ore veins as much as possible and mine first-grade steel as much as possible. This is considered as compensation to the tribal brothers."

Obviously, when the leader of Wei Li said these words, he was deliberately concealing his emotions.

Charmander fell into deep thought.

It is almost similar to the situation of the Long Nose Leaf tribe. Last time, the green apple forest production was reduced, and this time it is the turn of the first-level mineral veins to be reduced.

It seems that the reduction in mine production will have a lasting impact on the leader of Wei Li. Not to mention the objective reasons for the previous epidemic, the reduction in mine production is definitely closely related to a lot of subjective reasons.

environment,

That's right, it should still be the miasmas Gardevoir mentioned before.

It will definitely have a huge impact on the mineral veins of the Haoli tribe.

In fact, just when Guai Li discovered the anomaly, the environment around the entire tribe had already undergone wave after wave of subtle changes.

The same is true for the Spirit of Steel Peak. The entire mountain range was originally very easy to mine.

But after a certain day, the tribe's daily mining life suddenly turned into an extremely dangerous occupation.

There were frequent strong earthquakes in the mountains within one month, and even in the next three months, the mountains would be shaken about 40-50 times each time.

This is not a small number. In the smallest case, it will cause partial collapse of the mountain. In the worst case, it will directly trigger a series of mountain earthquakes and destroy all the mineral veins in a matter of minutes.

At this point, Pikachu suddenly remembered something.

According to the encyclopedia knowledge he had learned, this natural phenomenon can be called

——Mountain migration, or frequent movement of the earth's crust.

"Now, earthquakes in geographical knowledge are also caused by active crustal movements. It's just that Treasure Town does not belong to the earthquake zone, but the Steel Mountain Range is different."

"By comparing the maps, I discovered that the Mountains of Steel are actually on the edge of a small earthquake zone and are easily affected by crustal movements."

Charmander listened carefully, and Pikachu continued:

"Just like volcanoes, they are divided into extinct volcanoes and active volcanoes."

"Normally, the Mountains of Steel are extinct volcanoes and will not erupt. They will only enter a short active period at a certain period, but according to encyclopedia knowledge, there is no need to worry."

"Eventually peace will return."

Hearing this, Charmander, who held his chin with his small claws, suddenly asked:

"But, Pikachu, you just said that this phenomenon should only occur for a period of time."

Pikachu nodded: "Yeah."

"So, with such frequent mountain shaking lasting for several months, could this be an anomaly?"

"Hey, hey, that's abnormal!"
