Chapter 2458 A terrible natural disaster (two chapters in one)
"Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock..."
The sound of raindrops sounded.
In this inaccessible place, the noise was very loud.
After having breakfast, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead stayed at the entrance of the cave, looking into the distant sky, waiting for the heavy rain to fall.
Not long after, after a bright silver-white electric light illuminated the sky and the earth, huge raindrops fell from the sky.
This heavy rain has been brewing for a long time, and it can be predicted that it will rain very hard.
The raindrops were not very heavy at first, but after more than ten seconds they formed into threads and were blown randomly by the wind.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead always looks for the leeward direction when looking for caves, so the wind will not affect him now.
The strong wind brought a lot of rain to a forest, and many leaves were beaten by the rain and kept making sounds.
Some trees were relatively small and could not withstand the wind and rain, and were blown directly to pieces.
Some small animals that had never experienced such a big battle were trembling with fear, huddling together desperately, and making tiny sounds from their mouths.
The pig-headed captain, who had a brown birthmark on his forehead, looked at the rain falling heavier and heavier, and his mood inevitably became heavy.
Although the new residence is located on a high ground, it is unlikely to be flooded by rainwater.
But if it rains so hard, some accidents will inevitably happen, and then these accidents will be uncontrollable.
My current residence is not as safe as I imagined.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead was a little worried. Now that the rain was getting heavier, he wondered if he should make some plans.
After thinking about it, it seems that there are basically no materials on hand that can be used to make special tools.
"well."
"If you are in the city, you can buy some materials in advance."
"Now in this place where there are no people, even if I have an idea, I can't implement it."
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead sighed a few times, recalling the mission he had received before coming out of the city.
At that time, we should seize the time to return to the city, so that we would not be trapped outside.
However, now that things have happened and a long time has passed, we can only look forward and regretting will be of no use.
Suddenly a gust of wind changed direction and blew some rainwater towards the cave.
The pig-headed man captain, who had a brown birthmark on his forehead, was suddenly hit by the rain and his clothes were wet in many places.
"Made."
"This wind is too weird."
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead cursed a few words, and then quickly retreated deeper into the cave.
He came to sit in front of the campfire and took off his clothes to dry.
Because we collected a lot of wood yesterday, there is no shortage of fuel now.
I added some wood to the bonfire to make the fire burn brighter, so that the wet clothes could dry faster.
After about ten minutes, all the clothes soaked by the rain were dried.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead put on his clothes again, came to the entrance of the cave, and looked out.
By this time, the rain had reached a terrible level.
The pig-headed captain, who had a brown birthmark on his forehead, looked around. The misty rain obscured his vision, making it impossible to see clearly what was happening a hundred meters away.
And it's raining so hard now, it's affecting a lot of places.
You can vaguely hear a rumbling sound from the front left. This sound is not thunder.
The pig-headed captain, who had a brown birthmark on his forehead, opened his eyes and looked carefully at the place where the sound appeared. Soon he saw an extremely terrifying scene.
A large amount of rainwater flows into low-lying areas, and then accumulates somewhere, eventually turning into a flash flood.
Wherever the flash flood passed, everything was destroyed. Some animals that had no time to escape were trapped and must have died.
The forest encountered a flash flood and was all knocked down.
Although the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead had seen flash floods before, this was the first time he encountered such a terrifying flash flood.
Fortunately, the residence he chose is located at a high place, and the flash floods will not affect him for the time being.
"Rumble..."
A majestic flash flood hit a small mountain, and the mountain collapsed under the constant impact of the flood.
A large amount of soil and stones fell into the water, making the already turbid flash flood even more turbid.
Some small animals were not taken away by the flash flood for the time being, and they hugged the big trees and shivered.
Rain fell from the sky and washed everywhere.
Water flows to lower areas, and more and more rainwater collects in low-lying areas, forming lakes that are rapidly expanding in area.
The impact of such natural disasters is not very obvious now. When the flash flood reaches the vicinity of the city, if no response is taken.
Once a flash flood hits a city wall, even if the city wall is very strong, its strength will decrease under constant impact.
If this continues, the city wall will inevitably collapse.
Regarding the city wall, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead is too far away to know the current situation.
However, he could deduce some results based on the extent of the flash flood in front of him.
More than two hours passed unknowingly. After staying at the entrance of the cave for so long, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead finally withdrew his gaze.
The situation outside is gradually returning to calm, so there is no need to continue to wait and see at the entrance of the cave.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead turned around and walked deeper into the cave. The wood he had added earlier was burned out again.
…………
Zecheng.
On the majestic city wall, soldiers standing guard were chatting quietly.
It's raining heavily now, so the soldiers on guard don't need to be as vigilant as usual.
Suddenly, a very strange sound sounded in the distance.
When the soldiers heard the noise, they immediately looked into the distance and saw the terrible flood.
I have never encountered such a thing before, and now I suddenly saw it, and I was stunned for a moment.
News about the arrival of the flood was quickly conveyed to the higher-ups. Knowing that the flood was about to arrive, some powerful generals soon came to the city wall.
Powerful psychic energy waves emanated from these generals, and then the ground began to tremble not far from the city wall.
Thick earth walls rose from the ground, blocking the way of the flood.
"boom."
The force of the flood was so powerful that it bombarded the earthen wall and instantly caused many cracks in the earthen wall.
"No, a wall alone can't stop the flood..."
Someone saw many spider web-like cracks on the earthen wall, and his face suddenly turned pale.
Fortunately, at this time, these generals increased their output and built a stronger earth wall.
Two earthen walls resisted the flood and finally stopped the raging flood.
If there is no way to move forward, we can only change the route, and the flood will flow towards the lake in the distance.
There is an endless lake that serves as a reservoir, so the city will basically not be flooded.
By the evening of this terrible rainstorm, many places outside the city had turned into swamps.
If earthen walls had not been built on the outside in advance to guide a large amount of rainwater into the lake, more places would have suffered.
The residents living in the city also knew what was happening outside the city at this time, which was not the case usually when the rainy season came.
Now that something like this has happened, everyone is a little worried.
Fortunately, many soldiers came to the city wall to prevent possible changes outside the city, which brought some comfort to the residents inside the city.
Some rebels hiding in the dark did not choose to cause trouble when the natural disaster came.
They also know that if they mess up at this time and affect the soldiers' ability to resist natural disasters, they will eventually suffer.
…………
The overcast sky blocked the sun, and if you didn't pay attention to the time, you couldn't tell whether it was morning or evening.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead got used to the noise caused by the heavy downpour outside, and then lay down next to the bonfire to rest.
It was raining so hard outside at this time, and many creatures were looking for places to hide, so the chances of them attacking you were slim.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead was resting in the warm cave very peacefully. When it rained, the temperature began to drop rapidly.
If you didn't collect a lot of wood in advance and didn't have a bonfire to warm the cave, you would definitely be shivering with cold at this time.
The ground suddenly began to shake.
The whole cave shook, and some pebbles rolled down.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead was lying down and resting when he was awakened by the sudden earthquake.
He quickly stood up, but couldn't stand firm because the ground was shaking.
Half a minute later, the tremors disappeared. At this time, there was a sudden sound inside the cave.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead turned his head and looked.
It was found that the wood piled together collapsed and a lot of wood rolled to the ground.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead had no time to clean up the wood on the ground at this time. He quickly came to the entrance of the cave and looked ahead.
Although it is still pouring rain outside, the impact of this time's earthquake and mountain shaking can be clearly seen with the naked eye.
A huge crack appeared in the ground in the distance, and a lot of rainwater flowed into this crack.
I don’t know how deep this crack is, but a lot of rainwater flowed into it, but it didn’t fill up the crack.
If it hadn't rained at this time, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead would definitely go and check it out.
Silver-white thunder and lightning flashed in the clouds, and the terrible thunder shook the sky and the earth.
If you run around when there is lightning and thunder, you are very likely to be struck by lightning, so for safety reasons, it is better to stay in the cave.
Anyway, I am better prepared this time. No matter how long it rains, I can withstand it. I will wait until the rain stops to check the cracks.
The entrance of the cave where the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead was, was facing the crack.
Not much is known at the moment, he can only see a lot of rainwater flowing inside.
It rained heavily for so long, and some of the accumulated rainwater formed many small lakes. At this time, the place where the cracks appeared happened to be not very far from these small lakes.
Rainwater pours into the crack. According to common sense, the crack should be filled quickly.
The pig-headed captain, who had a brown birthmark on his forehead, felt that something was wrong, but nothing dangerous had happened so far, so he could only think about it.
"roar……"
A loud beast roar suddenly appeared.
Now it is pouring rain, lightning and thunder, and noisy sounds cover the world.
The roar of the beast can be clearly heard in such an environment. It can be imagined how powerful the beast that made this roar is.
The pig-headed captain, who had a brown birthmark on his forehead, frowned. He saw a huge creature appearing under the clouds in the distance.
Silvery white lightning appeared and struck at the strange beast flying in the sky.
The thunder and lightning suddenly changed direction not far from the alien beast. It must have been affected by the supernatural power exerted by the alien beast.
This is an alien beast that exudes third-order peak spiritual energy fluctuations. It is at least a hundred meters long. Every time it flaps its wings, the strong wind it brings will blow away the rainwater in a large area around it.
Thunder and lightning can't do anything to this strange beast, and now it is flying unscrupulously in such terrible weather.
Now that the rain curtain blocked his vision, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead could only see the outline of the alien beast, and could not identify the alien beast through careful observation.
"This strange beast is so strong."
"Is it going to attack Zecheng?"
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead was a little worried. If such a powerful beast attacked Zecheng, even if it could be driven away in the end, it would still have to pay a heavy price.
Suddenly, this powerful beast changed its flight direction, and it no longer continued towards the city.
"roar……"
The terrifying roar of the beast appeared again, and a large amount of rain was affected by the shock wave and spread to the left and right.
The next second, the alien beast took a breath, and rainwater actually gathered in its mouth.
"call out."
A water ball fell from the sky.
The blow from the alien beast hit the top of a hill.
There was a loud bang, and the top of the hill was razed to the ground.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead looked at the scene in the distance in horror. The hill he had climbed before and sat on the top of the mountain blowing the wind for a while, unexpectedly it was flattened.
I don’t know why this strange beast launched such an attack. It attacked the top of the hill and then left.
After a while, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead discovered that the strange beast of unknown origin had completely disappeared.
The other party came suddenly and left suddenly.
The behavior of alien beasts is sometimes hard to predict. The pig-headed man captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead thought about it for a while, but without any clue, he stopped thinking about it.
The caravans we encountered before are now complaining incessantly.
The heavy rain was so terrible that it flooded the area around the caravan.
If the rainwater continues to flood the land, the caravans will have no place to stay.
