The torrential rain was a terrifying sight when it swept inland.
Xu Duoduo sat on the bay window seat, unable to make out anything outside. There was no need to fear drought anymore, but rain this heavy was frightening.
It also caused landslides, cave-ins, urban flooding, and all sorts of other disasters in many places.
Things were better inside the major bases.
They only needed to guard against flooding.
The buildings had all been reinforced by ability users, and so had the ground.
During the two days they were stuck at the base,
Xu Duoduo went out with Qin Luo from time to time to help prevent flooding.
They cleared drain openings, dealt with fallen trees on the roads, and things like that.
Shishi's spatial ability came in handy.
Once she activated her Spatial Protective Shield, it could serve as a giant "umbrella." Unfortunately, her ability had its limits.
She couldn't cover the whole H City Base.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have had to worry about flooding or run outside every day.
Wang Weihu, Bai Shu, and Chen Xiaofei didn't take part. They lay around their apartment for two or three days because their reactions to the six-star mutant core injection were pretty intense this time. Last time, Qin Luo had clung to Xu Duoduo, but these three single guys had a rough time of it.
Wang Weihu frantically burned off energy with push-ups. Bai Shu took cold showers every day, then asked Xu Duoduo for a heap of ice cubes and soaked directly in ice water.
For all Chen Xiaofei's swagger beforehand, he whined just as much afterward, rolling around in bed in misery. Nobody on the team could whimper and moan like he could.
Eventually, Bai Shu couldn't stand watching anymore and hauled him off for a cold bath.
