Adventurer of the Elf World

Xiu didn't seem to care much, but he took out a can of snacks.

The Sandshrew, who originally looked very weak, actually took small steps and came to Xiu and nudged his arm.

"Hahaha~ All for you, no one will snatch it from you." Xiu said as he twisted the lid and handed the whole can to it.

Sandshrew carefully held the can with both hands and ran to the side, then picked out the snacks with his long claws and ate them deliciously~

"Ah~ So comfortable~" Xiu lay in the hot spring and slid down, with only his head above the water.

Surrounded by warmth, Xiu felt like he was about to fall apart.

After running around for so many days, even if he was made of iron, he would have metal fatigue, not to mention that he was just an ordinary person.

However, Xiu couldn't help but communicate with them on the telepathic channel about some of the information he had just inquired about after he stopped for a while.

"We should go and see that villa. Maybe there will be unexpected gains. As for other places, Honglian Island is so small. We will know when we go around."

"Didn't you say that we won't discuss those things today?"

Xiu just smiled when he heard what Casey said, and then lay back in the water.

But after a while, he sat up again and said excitedly: "Maybe I found a way to make Sandshrew not afraid of water!"

The elves all looked at Xiu, especially Sandshrew, with vigilant eyes.

It always felt that Xiu was going to catch him for some experiment again.

"Haha~" Xiu laughed dryly twice, raised his hand and waved, saying: "No more, no more, today is a holiday, everyone have a good rest."

After that, he slid into the water again.

He really didn't say it nonsense, but really thought of a way to deal with it.

The idea is very simple. The ground energy will dissipate quickly in the water, so just don't let the ground energy contact the water.

The Sandshrew has steel energy in its body. If it can wrap its body with steel energy, that is, completely metallize it, then it can be immune to water damage, right?

This idea went back and forth in his mind as soon as it came up, but he didn't want to disturb the elves' leisurely vacation too much, so he could only think about it slowly.

After soaking for a while, Xiu got up. Although it was very comfortable, his little brother couldn't stand it if he soaked too much. He could not give other face, but he still had to respect his little brother.

Besides, he was responsible for the meals of several elves.

After a good night's rest, Xiu counted his equipment in the morning and took the elves to the destination.

However, Xiu was not in a hurry to reach the destination. Instead, he slowly walked around the entire Honglian Town first, and then went to the villa located in the south of Honglian Island.

Originally, Xiu thought that there were only a few villas at most. After all, this place was remote. It was okay to be close to the town, at least it was convenient to enter and exit, but it would be troublesome if it was far away from the town, because this place was all mountainous, and there was only a circle of road around the outermost island.

Unexpectedly, this kind of villas began to appear away from the town center. Along the way, he saw at least thirty or forty of them, some large and some small, but the common point was that they were all very exquisitely built, and they looked like they were only completed in recent years.

And each of them built a road directly to the ring road. I have to say that they are really rich.

"It seems that with the development of society in recent years, there are more and more rich people."

Most of these villas are uninhabited, and some have even been abandoned for a while. The windows are broken, and it is obvious that someone has entered.

I don’t know what the builders thought. They actually built it in the south of the island. Don’t they know that they will be hit by typhoons and rainstorms in the first place? In Xiu’s opinion, it is a pure waste of resources.

Anyway, Xiu is not in a hurry. He takes Casey on the ring road. When he encounters a fork in the road, he glances over. If it is too far, he uses Casey’s vision.

Finally, they found the half-burned villa in the southeast of the island.

No wonder the old woman said that the place was too remote. By the time the people in the town found it, it had been burning for a long time.

The front wall of the house collapsed, and there was no trace of the gate. The right half had been burned, and the wall was full of traces of flames. The surface wall peeled off in a large area, revealing the steel and cement of the wall.

A part of the half that was burned by the fire had collapsed. It was not known whether it collapsed in the fire or collapsed naturally due to the erosion of the sea breeze after burning. Fortunately, the main skeleton was still there.

But now none of this mattered.

Xiu slowly approached, and Casey floated beside him.

Superpowers had spread, and Casey's perspective was projected in Xiu's mind.

"No, I guessed wrong. This is not a place to study Mewtwo."

After Xiu got the information of the entire villa, he directly overturned his previous guess.

There was indeed a space under the villa, but it was impossible to accommodate a research institute.

I don't know what he thought of, Xiu suddenly stepped forward quickly and walked into the villa.

Xiu didn't care about the collapsed part, but found the kitchen of the villa and started moving the ruins.

The fire devoured most of the traces here, but some traces cannot be easily eliminated.

Even after two years, Xiu can still find some related traces in the kitchen.

"This is not the Rockets' base. From the dishes, it can be seen that there were no more than three people active here at the time. Although the stove was burned, there was not much carbon deposit in the disassembled components. So the owner must have rarely cooked here, or even never used it."

A normal research institute cannot have only three or five people, which means this is not Team Rocket's place, maybe it's just a vacation villa of some rich man.

But why is the time so coincidental?

Xiu thought about it and looked at Casey beside him and asked: "Have you found anything?"

"Over there." Casey gave a picture, which was the part that was burned down.

Xiu walked over slowly and carefully explored the traces, but all he saw were the remains of fire, and he couldn't tell what it was.

Until the collapsed ruins, Xiu squatted down and searched for a while, and said to himself: "This is the collapse caused by the attack, and the fire started from here, so what was the situation at that time?"

While he was talking to himself, Casey had already used his ability to move the bricks and stones on the ruins, revealing a piece of burnt ground.

Xiu also gathered his thoughts and stood up, then walked to the floor, stomped his feet a few times, and muttered as he listened to the sound coming from it: "What on earth does the owner of this house do?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a teeth-grinding metal friction sound came from the ground, and the floor was forcibly pried apart by Casey's brute force.
