Chapter 205 Eye of the Storm
The power of heaven and earth always fills people with awe. You never know which one of tomorrow or accident will come first.
I originally planned to stay for a week and then leave, but I didn't expect that when the last day came, Manila ushered in the first typhoon of the year.
"What a shocking power!"
A group of people gathered around the glass curtain wall of the hotel, looking at the pouring rain from the sky and the accompanying violent wind.
A large area of trees in the distance was blown down, vehicles were drifting and rolling on the streets, and heavy rain accumulated on the ground like a vast ocean.
At a glance, it looks like the end of the world.
The departure plan was interrupted. It was impossible to travel in such bad weather.
"There was really no warning about this storm. It was sunny and sunny yesterday, but when I woke up in the morning, it was windy and rainy." Jiang Yu admired the scene outside the window.
"Such extreme weather should be predictable, but there is no local forecast for extreme weather. It's really strange." Nan Jue had a look of confusion on his face.
"No matter what, I can't leave today. Anyway, I don't have to worry about eating and drinking here." Zhao Man stretched himself, feeling comfortable staying in his hotel.
Nanrong Ni's eyes were filled with worry. As a family with a thorough understanding of the ocean, this kind of weather was not normal at all.
This is not in the country. If something goes wrong, you basically have to rely on yourself. The Manila mage's belief in resisting the demon is far from that firm.
"Are you okay?" Mu Tingying noticed that her face didn't look good. Even though she was demoted to the bench, as her follower, she still needed to pay attention.
"It's okay~" Nanrong Ni quickly calmed down his emotions and shook his head before replying.
……
The Misty Islands connect to the Pacific Ocean, where three monstrous momentums are confronting each other. Two huge black shadows are sinking in the ocean, and the other figure is a huge foggy shadow, whose momentum is not inferior at all.
None of the three terrifying giants took action, they just stayed where they were, and no one was willing to take a step back.
The strong momentum collided, steaming the water vapor on the sea surface, and pushed it into the high altitude, thus rolling up a huge storm. With the three as the center, they gradually converged into a huge eye of the storm.
The eye of the storm drives a large amount of surrounding water vapor into the clouds. When encountering low temperatures at high altitudes, it condenses into thick cumulonimbus clouds, which gradually spread toward Manila along the upper air currents.
The clouds in the sky were gradually unable to carry the thicker and thicker water vapor, and turned into heavy rain halfway. At the same time, they squeezed the air and formed strong winds, and the two mixed together.
Naturally, the three monster giants will not care about such trivial matters. A little drizzle is not within the scope of their attention. The pride of the monsters cannot be lost. Even if anyone retreats, they are likely to face the attack of the other two monsters. Bullying the weak and fearing the strong is not just low-key. The monsters can do it, and so can they.
The heavy rain carrying the aura of the top monsters naturally caused the carnival riots of the sea monsters. Normally, the sea area near Manila is considered a safe zone, but today it was broken through by the monsters in the outer sea.
From time to time, sea monsters will land along the outer coastline of Luzon Island. Fortunately, the entire coastline is surrounded by high mountains, and ordinary sea monsters cannot rush over.
The only thing worth worrying about is probably the accumulation of water caused by the heavy downpour, which has caused waterlogging in the city, and some mountain demons have rushed into the city.
Manila Magical Society Building.
Most of the top magicians in the city are gathered here. From early morning to now, no one here dares to leave voluntarily. They are all on standby.
In the hall, a large screen for detecting the threat of demons was hung on the wall. It showed the area on the Pacific side of the Misty Islands, which was a bloody place at the moment.
That area spread all the way to Manila, but the color began to change and the danger gradually decreased, but that didn't mean it was gone.
Various red dots have appeared in the city, indicating that many monsters have entered the city, and these monsters are threats.
Faced with this extremely unfavorable environment, they must organize and dispatch more urban demon hunting teams to eliminate them. If necessary, they will also need the support of high-level mages.
"These damn monsters...fortunately they didn't attack the city on a large scale."
"Ajie~ don't sigh, it's okay~"
"Thank you for being able to laugh. It's really scary to be in such a ghost place. I should have stayed in the country."
"At least... the domestic environment is not that bad."
The black-haired man in the corner looked at the big screen. The bloody area was so far away that it could affect it.
No~ This is no longer an influence, this is a natural disaster caused by demons... If they come over, what's the point?
The middle-aged man with yellow hair on the side had deep disdain and contempt in his eyes. There is no immortal in this world.
Even if there is no threat from monsters, it seems as if the city they live in is safe. Mages with magical power are more hateful than monsters.
Those bastards were just like vampires... When he thought of the pure and beautiful face in his memory, his eyes flashed with deep hatred.
He even wished that the Siren would come in and finish playing together!
The entire hall was filled with a depressing atmosphere. Many people had sullen faces and did not even dare to take a breath, for fear of making a splash and becoming the prettiest guy and attracting everyone's attention.
Compared with them, those mages who fought on the front line were really miserable, braving the harsh stormy environment and clearing out the monsters that had sneaked into the city.
In this environment, the power of many elemental magics is greatly affected, and they even relied on magic-killing tools to hunt monsters. If they encounter the sea monster, their danger will increase sharply.
Just as they finished chatting, an exotic woman wearing a professional suit came to the two of them.
"Master Liu Jie, this is a high-level order signed by the president. Please follow the newly formed demon hunting team to eliminate the demons in the city."
The secretary handed over a piece of A4 paper with a serious face, put it on the other person's desk, turned around and left, not caring whether he wanted to or not.
Anyway, a large number of foreign mages come here every year. Since they are here, they naturally need to help at critical moments.
"Fuck~fuck!"
"If there are so many local high-level mages, they will keep an eye on us foreign mages."
Liu Jie swore in a low voice, with an abnormal blush on his face. He was obviously angry. He could even feel the gloating glances at him at this moment.
But he didn't dare to refuse. He had finally spent so much money to enter the Magic Association. Was he going to quit like this?
If he quits, all his previous efforts will be in vain. When he thinks of all the ridicule after quitting, his heart seems to be tightly grasped by a mysterious force, which makes him terrified.
Under the contemptuous and pitiful gaze of his yellow-haired middle-aged colleague, Liu Jie took a deep breath, picked up the paper on the table, and left.
