Chapter 395 – 395. Thunderstorm 2
A week later.
A small city near Beijing. 3:30 in the morning.
The city has been in quite a bit of confusion since a week ago, seawater of unknown origin flooded the city.
It wasn’t just this city.
They were people in cities around Beijing who had already suffered from salty water coming out of their faucets.
They used to be like that, but now they couldn’t help but feel absurd as they looked at the seawater openly attacking them.
There wasn’t that much water. You should try a little higher than the ankle.
Still, the city, which was a fairly low-lying area, suffered significant damage even from that amount of water.
Since everything, including their homes, was flooded with water, residents who had been trying to salvage useful items all day ended up moving to the school gymnasium provided by the party to sleep.
That number alone is not a small number. People filling the gym.
I think a few hundred will be the basics.
Inside the gym where I finally calmed down the noise and fell asleep.
Suddenly, a huge amount of seawater gushes out from the ceiling, and those who were sleeping are startled, pack their bags and come out of the gym.
Because they were so hectic… They didn’t feel anything strange under their feet at all.
There are also a lot of dark clouds in the sky.
Crumbling
Suddenly, lightning struck the school playground.
People who managed to get out of the gym were shocked when they saw the lightning.
Lightning struck again from a little distance away.
Shocked, they cover their heads and hide inside the gym.
But… I was momentarily stunned as I saw the water soaking my ankles.
The salty smell of the sea. But they couldn’t think any further.
Because the lightning struck and fell directly into the pouring seawater.
As I was watching those scenes, I smiled with satisfaction.
The thunderstorm is powerful enough. However, there is a need to spread the effect more widely and clearly.
Seawater for that. Even if you are not directly struck by lightning, you cannot avoid electric shock if you come in contact with seawater.
The results obtained through numerous experiments with Chinese dogs.
Lightning that falls due to a skill can be blocked with the skill.
However, it cannot prevent lightning from hitting the water and causing electric shock to people who touch it.
At least so far, I haven’t seen anyone who has prevented it.
What I found out after electrocuting quite a few dogs in Wuhan. Therefore, the effect is certain.
Maybe it’s because I only kill sloppy bastards.
I don’t think you’ll die right away if you use the shield to reduce damage.
Anyway, I feel like I know why there are no water-related skills.
Wasn’t this meant to prevent something like this?
Late morning. A thunderbolt that illuminates the entire surroundings in pure white.
As I turn on the detection, I feel the surrounding presence disappearing quickly.
Really… It’s incredible power. It’s too much to kill people.
Even though I think like that, I don’t neglect to check for signs around me.
It continuously blinks in all directions and scans the surroundings with an overwhelming detection range.
I used my skills as a guerrilla at dawn, so no matter how quickly I respond, it will take some time.
In the meantime, we can leisurely use our skills and run away.
This is the third time. So far, I’ve been able to escape safely. When will these guys attack?
When casting Thunderstorm, the preparation time is 1 minute and the duration is 4 minutes.
There would literally have to be a 5-minute standby team to come catch us. It won’t be that easy.
Will we be able to withdraw safely this time? . I tried it, but it was detected far away.
Those floating in the air. Those standing just outside the range of the thunderstorm.
Come. In the end, you came.
I can finally test it against them.
In terms of time, there is still about a minute left in the thunderstorm.
You wouldn’t just watch that, right? I immediately signaled Anna.
She has learned all her reflexes and her shield.
It immediately surrounds Mina, who is using the skill, and puts a protective shield around her.
And the gate opens centered on Mina and Anna.
A gate measuring 2 meters by 2 meters surrounds them like dice, front, back, left, right, top and bottom.
Kkkk. Even if I think about it, it’s a crazy idea.
The shield can block all area skills. Even a thunderstorm.
The only things that can break such a shield are melee skills that can break the shield and nullification of area skills. Ah, the area where skills cannot be used.
However, melee skills cannot approach Mina or Anna because of that gate.
You can’t enter a place you can’t see by blinking. And if you just approach, you will just pass through the gate and go to the outskirts of the city.
Nullifying wide-area skills is impossible because you have to reach the bottom.
Perhaps the only way to destroy this is by using the skill-free zone beneath our feet?
But if you come to spread it on the ground… That guy is my food. I just have to stop it.
I don’t know if they can think like that.
Are they really going to try to come in here for the rest of the time? I hope those guys come in.
But, I guess they are also idiots. Well, I guess your life is precious too.
Moreover, it would be difficult to accurately determine the cube I made with the gate.
It will be almost invisible when viewed from a distance.
When you look at the gate, you can see the place on the other side.
The place I saved is also the sky, so if you look at it from a distance, you can just see the sky inside the gate.
The corner of the cube, should I say the bezel of the portal? It will just look like it’s floating in the air.
You won’t even be able to see Mina and Anna inside.
Even if you come close and look at it, you will have to look at something to notice it, but it will be difficult to figure out what it is from that far away.
Ah. If you have something like clairvoyance, you might know. No. Even if you are not a clairvoyant, you can see it with binoculars.
Anyway, the thunderstorm is over. Mina and Anna went straight through the gate, and Seunghee and Se-Ah, who were on guard nearby, also went straight through the gate.
We came to the outskirts of the city where the thunderstorm unfolded.
Immediately release all gates. Neat finish.
“Are you going to do something else today?”
“Uh, go and rest for a while.”
In response to Seunghee’s question, the gate to the bunker was opened, and the four women boarded the gate right away.
Immediately close the gate and fly to the next area. It’s a pity that I couldn’t retrieve the coin… It won’t take long to recover all of that.
Save up hard. I’ll pay you a lump sum later.
China’s land is large.
That’s why there are plenty of places to make a fuss.
Over the past week, as a preliminary work, a lot of seawater has been sprinkled on cities around Beijing.
There is an abundance of prey. Even if you scatter it anywhere, there are plenty of bastards everywhere.
The defenders have no way to stop the guerrillas. That’s the biggest difference between those guys and us.
All I have to worry about is the safety of me and your woman. But not those guys. Stupid guys.
As our guerrillas increase, their fatigue accumulates.
In terms of cost-effectiveness, it is truly the best. With just the five of us, how many idiots will have to stay up all night?
I don’t know why things like that are maintained in a world where everything is ruined.
Anyway, those who are obsessed with useless things like ideology, ideology, religion, and philosophy are not allowed.
You have to let go of what you have to let go quickly. If I still hold onto something like that, I will use it.
I think so, but… Still, you can’t let down your guard.
There are definitely people like that among these bastards.
Those who pretend to maintain the communist system and implement the ideal world according to their ideology, but are fully satisfied with their own self-interest.
It can’t be there. And there are definitely some capable people among them.
They are the only ones you need to be most careful about on this shitty continent. The problem is that you don’t know where you are.
Besides, there’s no way they’ll come out if you bother them like this.
They are the most difficult ones. Those guys with heavy butts and smarts.
Let’s just stop thinking and move on to the next area.
They must be strengthening security around cities hit by floods right now, right?
Idiots. I will choose the battlefield I want to fight in. And it’s probably not the place you might expect.
Roll the dice for perfect randomness.
North for even numbers, south for odd numbers. Yay. Okay North. Next time…
East for even numbers, west for odd numbers. Hmm. This time it’s the west.
Good. Next go northwest. Next, I rolled the dice three times. 2 and 4 and 3.
Hmm… Good. Then let’s add 2 and 4 to get 63. Truly random, completely determined by you.
Then it was decided. Blink 63 to the northwest. Go go go.
After roughly looking around the location of Blink 63, we head to the largest city.
Hmm. This definitely seems like a place I’ve never been to. Then, first save it in the outskirts.
Find the area with the most assholes. Hehe. It’s nice here. It’s bustling.
The land mass is so large, and there are so many people around Beijing that it can be thought of as a real cockroach den.
To be honest, I don’t think it would make a difference even if I sprayed some water and started a thunderstorm.
How many times must I do this for the damage to accumulate?
The range of the thunderstorm is 200 meters in radius. Mina is currently receiving the range increase 2 passive, so it is 260 meters.
No matter how large the area is, it is only a circular area with a diameter of 520 meters.
Mina needs to improve her passive quickly. Only then will the scope become much larger.
Anyway, now I’m having fun spraying water.
Mobilize all six gates and spray them evenly around the area.
They think it’s raining because it’s spraying from the sky, right? Of course, it is an enormous amount of water.
I opened the gate to the bunker, stuck my head in, and shouted.
“Friends! Time to get to work!”
All four women came out and closed the gate. And Mina uses her skills right away.
“Thunderstorm.”
Jiiiiing
A huge yellow line drawn around Mina.
Now, just by drawing that line, I feel like endorphins are surging in my body.
That line is the border of death. If you stay in this circle, you have no choice but to die.
Let’s hope her own skill is a shield.
Rumbling
Gathering dark clouds. This preliminary time is 1 minute. It’s quite long. It’s so long that I wonder how I can wait for this.
However, once the first lightning strikes, a spectacular spectacle that compensates for the wait unfolds before your eyes.
Flash! Crumbling!
A thunderbolt hitting the ground. And not to be outdone, the second thunderbolt follows.
From then on, I can’t count who came first. Death falls in countless numbers.
From the royal seat, you can see the lightning strike that destroys buildings and everything else.
If you disband the party in this state, everyone except Mina will be killed, right? Wow. It’s scary to even think about it.
Nope. Seunghee and Anna have a protective shield. Only Se-Ah and I will be the ones to suffer. Ugh.
Seunghee and Anna mastered reflexes and learned her shield.
I was thinking of teaching them detection, but I took a sharp turn when I saw the thunderstorm.
A protective shield is also necessary. Of course, there is a counter… Are there any skills without counters? It’s all the same.
I hope Seunghee and Anna become Tier 9 and Tier 10 quickly.
Because there will be EMPs and tornadoes.
I’m quite curious. Thunderstorm has a skill tree, so if you look at it, it is a Tier 5 skill.
That’s about it… What about high tier skills? I can’t help but look forward to it.
Besides, Mina has one more shot.
A skill that can be learned by mastering Blink. Plague.
We’ll be able to give more gifts to our little friends who are already suffering from the water crisis, right?
It can’t be anything but exciting.
Even though I’m thinking about random things, I don’t neglect to investigate my surroundings.
Did it come too randomly? It won’t come until the thunderstorm is over.
“Aren’t those guys coming again?”
“Even if they come, they won’t be the ones from earlier, right? Since the distance is quite long, another contingent will come.”
“Whoa. Really? I see.”
Se-Ah has learned a lot of skills, but has yet to practice them properly. Even though the dam was broken, I have never had to deal with people directly.
So is that so? He looks a little nervous.
No matter how much you sparred and trained like a real fight, you can’t help but feel nervous.
The four-minute thunderstorm ends and the dark clouds disperse.
Another successful guerrilla. No one has shown up yet, but everyone rushes straight through the gate.
“Huh? Are you going to do more? Are you not coming in?”
Seunghee sticks her face out at the gate and asks me.
“No. I’ll just do a little more work, save other areas, and then I’ll be on my way. You can sleep first. Everyone worked hard.”
“I understand. Come back quickly! I’m worried!”
“There’s a party. Don’t worry.”
“I understand!”
I closed the gate right away.
Where should we go next? After all, it would be best to ask the dice.
