章節 151: Heading to...
A few days ago.
"Brother Ayan...waaahhh..." Fallarbor Town's health clinic, one of the few "town doctors" responsible for residents' illnesses, were extremely busy.
The sudden explosion had injured many workers who were developing Mt. Chimney and constructing cable cars. The injured quickly filled up this usually quiet little health clinic.
Rina and Myu, the two little girls from the Old Green House, were stopped outside the health clinic with tears in their eyes. They couldn't disturb the injured while their wounds were being treated.
The other orphans from the Old Green House stood there in a state of panic, their hearts filled with anxiety and prayers...
Grandma Arlan's wrinkled face was twisted, her eyes barely open, hands clasped together, trembling slightly...
Apart from them, other residents of Fallarbor Town, with various emotions, were also looking ahead with complex feelings. Besides Ayan, there was more than one injured person from Fallarbor Town...
For the usually calm Fallarbor Town, such sensational events hardly ever occurred.
With too many wounded, the small health clinic in Fallarbor Town couldn't handle it all. Shortly after the accident, they had already requested assistance from a higher-level city.
Not only the doctors but also the members of the construction team and the professionals who rushed to the scene conducted a thorough investigation of the location where the explosion occurred.
In projects like this one, involving wilderness development, there were plenty of accompanying professionals. Most incidents and cases of accidents that occur were due to attacks from Pokémon in the wilderness.
Although most Pokémon have gentle temperaments and only a few will attack humans actively, however if their territory is encroached upon and there is not a significant disparity between the parties involved, they will definitely launch an attack to protect their territory.
In such cases…..which often occur during wilderness development, the pioneers have become smarter, developing a profession to negotiate with wild Pokémon…..They strive for a win-win situation where they don't infringe on Pokémon's interests while carrying out their projects. In this regard, humans have been generous, and the Pokémon have received corresponding rewards and understanding. As a result, incidents of Pokémon attacks during wilderness development have greatly reduced.
Being attacked by wild Pokémon was normal, and construction teams were prepared for it.
However,
This incident was far from simple. According to the evidence, no matter how you infer from any angle, this explosion was not caused by Pokémon.
All the clues pointed to modern technology.
If the accident had been caused by Pokémon, even if many people were injured, according to the contracts signed before the start of work, it wouldn't have been considered too severe an event.
But if it was done by humans...this accident would attract widespread attention.
Afterward, in just a few days, news of what happened here spread through various channels to multiple places, becoming known to many.
Even newspapers began to report on the "Mt. Chimney Disaster."
At the same time, countless eyes began searching for the mastermind behind the scenes.
...
...
The vast expanse of the azure sea, waves continuously surged, crashing against the rocks, emitting thunderous roars, splattering white foam.
However, on this sea surface where water and sky merge in one color, a silhouette resembling several snow-white feathers dancing in the fierce sea wind, darted over the surface of the sea—
"Altaria, can you hold on?"
This shadow was clearly Terrance and Altaria.
Upon unexpectedly learning about the disaster at Mt. Chimney and the incident that left many Fallarbor Town residents seriously injured, Terrance subconsciously thought of the people at the Old Green House.
Especially with rumors circulating that this disaster was man-made, and that the explosion was far from a one-time occurrence. In the aftermath, it triggered multiple mountain collapses. This event instantly jolted Terrance's heart.
This situation, it's as if a bunch of "terrorists" were wreaking havoc.
This couldn't help but make Terrance worried about everyone at the Old Green House. Even if rescue teams were rushing to Fallarbor Town, he couldn't shake off his concern for the situation at the Old Green House.
Old Green House, with no means of self-defense, must be in a state of panic, being dragged into such a situation from their usual peaceful life.
If these "terrorists" were to trigger further disasters near Mt. Chimney and Fallarbor Town, Terrance couldn't imagine the aftermath.
If Terrance were to return, at least he could take care of everyone. Even if chaos were to break out, there would still be room for resistance.
After all, Terrance had become quite a skilled Trainer by now.
Moreover, it wasn't just Terrance who was worried. His Altaria's mother, the ruler of Mt. Chimney also lived atop Mt. Chimney.
Upon learning of this incident, Altaria couldn't possibly remain calm.
Stay calm.
Impossible.
Without seeing it with their own eyes, Terrance and Altaria couldn't rest assured. Even though Terrance was about to participate in the Intermediate Breeder exam, he chose to give up this opportunity and rush back to Fallarbor Town immediately.
It was just a Breeder Examination, not a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Delaying it a bit wouldn't be regrettable.
"We're about to see land soon, keep going." Terrance shivered from the sea breeze, but he ignored it.
They made the bold decision to have Altaria fly them across the ocean directly.
Traveling by ship would waste too much time. Several days had passed since the incident occurred, and who knew what had happened by now.
There was no news to be found, no information online. Worried about the Old Green House, the two of them resorted to the most ruthless method to get to Fallarbor Town.
This approach was undoubtedly very dangerous. Encountering sudden situations like storms or Pokémon running out of stamina could be fatal.
However, Terrance was confident in Altaria's abilities. Crossing the ocean was something Altaria could handle.
Especially in a region like Hoenn, where island chains form a mainland that can be seen every so often, Terrance's confidence was even stronger.
Time passed quickly. Passing by one island after another, sea towns, and cities, Terrance and Altaria finally saw Slateport City.
Slateport City, Fallarbor Town, both were located on the largest mainland in Hoenn. Reaching Slateport City meant they were not far from Fallarbor Town.
In the vast ocean, where one could hardly see a single person, the harsh temperature difference made Terrance and Altaria extremely uncomfortable, but they didn't hesitate even slightly at the moment.
Their destination was right in front of them. With one final push, they could return to Fallarbor Town and Mt. Chimney to see what exactly had happened.
"That's... "
Just as they were about to descend in Slateport City, Terrance was suddenly attracted to a sound coming from below.
