Suddenly, lightning flashed outside, and Qing Wu heard several screams. Immediately afterward, Qing Wu smelled the odor of burning protein.
Qing Wu poked his head out of the archive room. A group of small Pokémon floating in the air unleashed Thunderbolt.
This was a group of Magneton. After they unleashed Thunderbolt, several charred-looking objects lay on the ground, emitting wisps of green smoke.
These were corpses electrocuted by Thunderbolt.
Don't think that in the anime, Ash being hit by Thunderbolt is like eating and drinking. Almost everyone has the physique of a Super Saiyan.
To be hit by a Thunderbolt in the Pokémon world is basically a death sentence, and you won't even be able to recover.
"These fools, since they all knew they were coming to a power plant, why didn't they wear rubber suits?" Qing Wu regretfully said to the charred trainers or hunters.
"857" Those were living, breathing people.
Qing Wu directly tore open his black robe, revealing the power plant worker's uniform underneath, which was also made of rubber.
Qing Wu remembered a power plant employee saying that some of the Pokémon raised by the power plant were very friendly to the power plant employees.
Unfortunately, this did not make the Magneton stop attacking. Instead, their eyes narrowed at Qing Wu.
The leading Magneton took the lead in unleashing Thunderbolt. The rubber on Qing Wu's body prevented him from suffering much damage.
"Come out, Arcanine, help me clear them out." Qing Wu released Arcanine and said to him.
Arcanine nodded. With a wide open mouth, countless flames poured out from Arcanine's mouth. The robust flames burned the entire passage.
At this moment, the fire triggered the power plant's fire alarm system, making a jingling sound.
Immediately afterward, the fire sprinkler system began to operate, and large chunks of fire-extinguishing foam sprayed out from the sprinklers.
Unfortunately, the foam did not extinguish Arcanine's flames. Instead, it made the flames burn even more fiercely.
The Magneton's bodies were all burned red.
Once a magnet turns red from being burned by flames, it loses its magnetism. Magneton are all made of magnets, so they are no exception.
Qing Wu watched as the Magneton disintegrated in the air, clattering to the floor.
Qing Wu used the system to scan the Magneton scattered on the ground, and these Magneton's potential wasn't very good.
"What a pity," Qing Wu recalled Arcanine.
Arcanine had just finished producing, and was still in the recovery phase. Qing Wu did not dare to let Arcanine overexert himself.
If the mighty Growlithe knew, it might even chase Qing Wu around.
God knows how perverted this mighty Growlithe and its wife are, making Qing Wu, a single dog, eat dog food every day.
Qing Wu searched the charred corpses and found four Poké Balls, which contained Magneton.
Catching Magneton in front of the Magneton clan, it was no wonder the Magneton clan was so angry.
One of Qing Wu's purposes for coming to the power plant this time was to capture Shinx, Luxio, and Luxray.
Luxio's evolution, Luxray, can Mega Evolve. Luxio can Mega Evolve, and Luxray can evolve again.
These three Pokémon are all good, powerful Pokémon.
But so far, he hasn't seen these three Pokémon, and when he did, it was a whole group of them.
These Pokémon are all gregarious Pokémon. If a large group of them unleashed Thunderbolt, Qing Wu wouldn't be able to handle it.
Although he was wearing a rubber suit, it could prevent Thunderbolt attacks.
But this rubber suit couldn't withstand Million Volt, or Ten Million Volt attacks!
The high temperature of Million Volts was enough to melt this rubber suit. By then, Qing Wu would be dead beyond dead.
Qing Wu took out the intelligence he bought from the black market. There had been quite a few scattered hunters who had previously ventured into the power plant.
Most of these bold hunters did not rush out of the power plant.
A small batch of hunters who rushed out were all electrocuted, but they brought back useful information.
The entire power plant was very large. Qing Wu was currently still on the periphery of the power plant. To reach the deepest part of the power plant, next to the unmanned generator, he had to pass through a long lightning corridor, a power vortex device, and a seawater pressurization room.
This lightning corridor was originally a place for transmitting power outwards, but it was occupied by a large number of Electric-type Pokémon, becoming a natural barrier to entering the interior of the power plant.
Most of the hunters and trainers were blocked in the lightning corridor.
The power vortex device was a storage device that transmitted power outwards from the generator. It attracted many powerful Electric-type Pokémon to reside there.
...
The seawater pressurization room was the most dangerous place, occupied by a group of Electabuzz.
They treated the seawater pressurization room as their own lair, hatching Electabuzz there.
That place was also known as the Reaper's checkpoint. God knows that in an environment full of seawater everywhere, Electabuzz's electric power was amplified to be terrifyingly strong.
Finally, there was the unmanned generator. No one knew what was ultimately there. Almost all hunters retreated after reaching Electabuzz's territory.
These hunters were ambushed by Electric-type Pokémon when they retreated to the power vortex device, suffering heavy losses.
As soon as Qing Wu approached the lightning corridor, he saw lightning filling the sky. Countless hunters and trainers sent out their Pokémon, battling the Electric-type Pokémon.
The Pokémon sent out by the trainers were all Rock-type and Ground-type Pokémon, which were extremely effective against Electric-type Pokémon.
But the smart Electric-type Pokémon found a breakthrough: directly attacking the trainers.
There were many exposed wires in the power corridor, with strong currents making crackling sounds.
The Pokémon that had exhausted their electricity directly ran to the exposed wires to recharge.
The battle became a stalemate.
Qing Wu saw that Du was already a little impatient, wanting to break through the layers of Electric-type Pokémon and rush into the power vortex device area.
The power corridor was very large, an important hub connecting to the outside world. Many Pokémon clans were distributed here.
Manectric, Magneton, Shinx, Luxio, Pikachu, Plusle, Minun, and Geodude were all battling the trainers' Pokémon.
"Strange, why don't I see any Voltorb?" Qing Wu felt it incredible.
Voltorb was the protagonist of the power plant. Why couldn't he see a single one here?
No, that's not right, something's very wrong. Qing Wu slowed his pace.
"Voltorb itself isn't a strong Pokémon. It's easily driven away by powerful Electric-type Pokémon. It's impossible for them to be in the power vortex device area, and it's also impossible for them to be in the territory occupied by Electabuzz."
"So where would Voltorb appear? If I were Mauville Group, where would I place Voltorb to maximize the destruction of these hunters and trainers, sacrificing their souls?"
