The night is getting darker and everything is silent.
Birds with black bodies fluttered across the ground and swooped down.
The noisy wind on the plain seemed to have calmed down, and the world seemed to be covered with a layer of black cloth.
The light of the red moon also began to dissipate, gradually hiding in the dark clouds.
"water!"
"It's water! We're saved! We have water!"
"Thank God, thank Jesus, thank you for the new life..."
"...."
Countless dark shelters began to gradually light up with sparks as the sound of raindrops became louder and louder.
The next moment, some people excitedly rushed out of their shelters and stood under the sky, enjoying the touch of "water" wantonly.
boom!
A bolt of lightning that penetrated the sky and the earth appeared in the sky, suddenly lighting up the earth and illuminating the crazy expressions of these people.
The roar that followed was like a warning, shaking the world.
Wow!
As time went by, the light rain that was originally sparse suddenly became heavy. In the dark night, the sound of rain became the only solo sound.
The dry earth greedily absorbs the nutrients that fall from the sky.
The cracks on the ground that had been exposed to the sun for days gradually began to heal under the care of the rain.
Everything seems to be alive again.
but...
"Ah, my face...how could my face look like this!"
When the first person's face began to appear pits that looked like they were corroded by concentrated sulfuric acid, the crowd who rushed out were dumbfounded.
With the light of lightning, a sudden glimpse.
People who were outside in the rain suddenly discovered:
The exposed skin has been burnt black, with tiny pits appearing. It doesn't hurt, and there is a different kind of numbness.
The most terrifying thing is...
All of this happened quietly.
In the World Channel, countless meteorologists and chemists who traveled through time also experienced acid rain anomalies.
"Everyone, be careful. Don't let the rain get on your body. This rain is unusual!"
"Maybe it's not sulfuric acid. I did an experiment and it didn't corrode wood or land at all. Those who have the conditions can collect some and study with me."
"Professor Li has run out of speeches today. Let me help him by saying: Professor Li said that this kind of acid rain may contain a kind of nerve acid. Do not let your body be in direct contact with acid rain for a long time. If you get wet, wipe it off quickly."
"No wonder I have lost consciousness in the corroded areas. Please, save me, I don't want to die."
"Mom, I want to go home, I want to drink water, I don't want to stay here, please help me, please"
"My stomach hurts so much. I drank a little rainwater just now. It hurts so much. I hurt so much!"
"...."
More and more insensitive speeches have taken over the world's channels, creating an apocalyptic panic.
Water droplets have begun to invade the dilapidated house...
The poorly sealed underground hole shelter began to seep water crazily...
The terrain is too low and potholes have begun to accumulate rainwater...
More and more people are beginning to understand the meaning of disaster.
It turns out that this is not just a disaster for a small group of people, but!
A disaster for everyone!
Acid rain is so terrifying!
...
"Woof woof woof, woof! Oow!"
In the dark sanctuary, Sumo opened his tired eyes and looked at Oreo, who was manicuring on the bedside, and felt sleepy for the most part.
"What's wrong?"
Holding the bed with one hand, Su Mo sat up and touched his chest.
After several days of hard work, coupled with the injuries caused by entering the ruins, as time went by, I finally recovered a lot.
Following Oreo's line of sight, Sumo suddenly discovered that a lot of water had seeped into the stone door of the shelter, making a piece of stone slab wet.
"Oops, there's something wrong with the rain!"
Seeing Oreo grinning, Su Mo suddenly felt his scalp numb.
Subconsciously, Sumo opened the game panel and checked the world channel while getting dressed.
As the game panel opened, prompts began to sound.
[Record]: "Attention to all players, attention to all players, attention to all players"
[Record]: "The first disaster, acid rain, is coming (novice protection). Please be careful with all players and don't be careless."
[Record]: “This disaster lasted for 36 hours”
[Record]: "Please note that the system announcement will cease operations after the first novice disaster is over."
[Record]: "Congratulations to player Sumo, it has been detected that your shelter's disaster resistance attribute is currently ranked first in the world. Do you want to disclose the ranking data and start the shelter's live broadcast of disaster resistance simultaneously?"
[Record]: "Please note that starting the live broadcast will not broadcast the inside of the shelter, but will start a surround live broadcast above the shelter, which can only be used by other players to observe the ground buildings!"
[Record]: "If you activate live broadcasts for more than fifteen minutes in total and successfully survive the disaster, you will receive a random survival airdrop*1"
[Record]: "Turn it on?"
The messy notification sounds were like the buzzing of birds, blasting in Somo's ears.
"The disaster has already begun? And this live broadcast?"
It took a few seconds for Sumo to immediately understand the current situation.
The acid rain disaster has indeed begun, and the water seeping into the shelter must be acid rain.
However, even a shelter like his that had already seen water was the first. Somo did not dare to think about how miserable the other shelters were at this time.
Ignoring the system prompts, Sumo chose the Advanced World Channel to investigate.
As soon as I entered, the overwhelming world channel seemed to have restored the grand scene that I had traveled through on the first day.
"My shelter is going to be flooded. When will this rain stop! I hate, I hate, I hate that I didn't dig and drain the water!"
"My feet! My feet have been corroded by the rain. I have no feet anymore, ahhhh!"
"Remember not to touch the rain directly with your skin, otherwise the nerves will be corroded immediately. Try to use plant fibers to absorb water if possible, and never let water touch you!"
"This is not a natural disaster, it is a baptism. Only in the heavy rain can we humans find the way forward! Amen!"
"O God, can your believers go to your heaven after death?"
Countless insensitive comments occupy 99% of the chat boxes.
Sumo only looked at it for three to five seconds before he was so shocked that he couldn't speak.
There are traces of acid rain on the earth, and the material components in it are clearly known.
However...
According to what is said in the current world chat channel, the acid mixed in this kind of acid rain does no harm to objects, but as soon as it touches the human body, it will corrode violently and silently...
"It's actually neurotic!"
With a look of horror on his face, Sumo suddenly thought of the black dog he had encountered in the ruins for some reason.
There are countless disgusting rotten spots on the surface of the black dog's skin, and it is not aware of it. Even when Somo pokes it with a spear, it has no reaction.
Turn off the world channel and turn on the regional channel.
The number of members in the regional channel seems to be stained with bright red blood at this time, which is unacceptable.
323...
Before going to bed yesterday, Sumo also deliberately remembered the number of survivors in the regional channel. At that time, there were still 645 people.
In just one night, half of the people disappeared in the rain.
The remaining three hundred people were also in danger at this time.
It's okay if you choose an above-ground shelter. As long as the terrain is not too low-lying, at least you don't have to face the Shura scene of acid rain rushing into the shelter for now.
Smart people, relying on wooden shovels and buckets, carefully ensured that water would not pour into the shelter.
Brainless people simply made simple raincoats and umbrellas out of plant fibers.
Wearing a raincoat and holding an umbrella above his head, he climbed to the roof of the wooden house shelter, and then made wooden boxes and planks to barely create a small attic to escape the disaster.
Those who drank their fill from the acid rain will remain in this wasteland forever, and will never live again.
After observing for a while, Sumo closed the game panel, stared at the leakage area.
If the rain outside is really so scary, then it makes sense that his shelter should be ranked first.
As an underground shelter, there is not even a puddle underground at this time.
Relying on the good sealing of the stone gate, there is great hope to avoid the first wave of disasters!
"Oreo, don't touch that water!"
After telling Oreo, who was grinning at the rain leak, to stay away, Sumo took out the cloth he had stored before the disaster and began to study rainproof plans.
