Griffin Rock East.

Faxian is a high-tech city in Hong Kong, China. The residents there are all in on the Rescue Bots' secret, that they are actually aliens. Dr Meili Szeto and her laboratory there are working as part of the Scrubber Initiative.

Fiction

Rescue Bots cartoon

Three Scrubbers went out of control and were released on the city, resulting in the Griffin Rock rescue team having to GroundBridge there to subdue them. To protect the project, Blades, Dani, Quickshadow, and High Tide were assigned to Faxian. The Morocco virus got wind of the project and arrived via the GroundBridge, managing to evade Blades's team and make off with the technology from the lab. Upgrades With the GroundBridge down, Blades and Dani were able to borrow a rocket booster so they could fly back to the US to help out when it turned out Morocco was not down for the count.

Notes

• The city's name may be a reference to the Buddhist monk [[wikipedia:{{#if:|:}}Faxian|{{#if:Fǎxiǎn|Fǎxiǎn|Faxian}}]] (法顯/法显) or the Mandarin word for "find"/"discover", fāxiàn (發現/发现).
• Of course, Hong Kong is a city by itself, and Mandarin is not the native language of most Hongkongers, who speak Cantonese as well as English. Faxian thus might be an homage to the neighboring tech hub of [[wikipedia:{{#if:|:}}Shenzhen|{{#if:||Shenzhen}}]] (深圳).
