How to Look for a way to control the extractor in Genshin Impact

In this part, you need to find the two missing Control Keys in order to shut down the Energy Extraction Device. You can obtain them in any order.

Climb the ladders to the top of the building, where you'll find a huge crack in the wall. Enter the crack to find the first Control Key. Approach it to claim the Key—no need to defeat the Eremites.

Second Control Key location

Jump down until you see the entrance pictured above. Enter it to find the second Control Key. There's a Dendro boulder and an Auspicious Branch inside, but interacting with them will only summon more Eremites, so you can leave after approaching the Key.

After obtaining the two Control Keys, interact with the Energy Extractor Device at the top of the building to begin a battle segment. A circular gauge will appear above it. Your goal is to stand beside the Device until the gauge above it becomes full. If you're too far away or if there are enemy disruptions, the gauge will stop filling up, so make sure to defeat all the enemies that spawn and stand close to the Device afterward. Once the gauge is all filled up, the Energy Extraction Device will turn off, rewarding you with an Exquisite Chest.
