Chapter 312 - Muir’s Abode (1/2)
She reached out to wipe her face, but there was already nothing there.
However, Bai Qingqing was struck by an idea
– it was the vibration of the sounds that made the rain fall!
Bai Qingqing recalled this nature documentary she once saw on television, which featured a place with a unique topology. She still remembered that the place was at a high elevation and surrounded by mountains. The entire land was shaped like a loudspeaker.
The magical thing was that if people were to stand in the middle and shout loudly several times, very quickly raindrops would start to fall. And after the shouting stopped, the falling rain would also come to a halt.
Of course, that was a remarkable spectacle that came to be due to its unique geographical location; the movements of air currents, etc., were some of the principles behind that phenomenon.
But they didn’t need that. With the large cloud above them, they only had to find a suitable loudspeaker. Based on the beast howls of the City of Beastmen, she felt that using sound vibration to make it rain was a highly feasible idea.
The cloud was drifting at a fast speed. Bai Qingqing grabbed Curtis’s arm and said anxiously, “Can you find a place with this shape? The surrounding mountains have to be connected, and the closer they are to each other the better.”
Bai Qingqing gestured the shape of a loudspeaker with her hands and added, “Search along the path of the cloud. I might have a way to make it rain.” Shifting his gaze away from the cloud to Bai Qingqing’s face with much difficulty, Curtis said, “I’ll go and find it.”
“Screech-“
A clear and loud eagle screech was heard above their heads. Bai Qingqing and Curtis raised their heads unanimously, only to see the black head of an eagle peering down from the roof.
With a hiss, Curtis felt a strong killing intent explode all over his body. Raising his snake’s tail, when he got a clear view of the situation on the roof, that killing intent nearly solidified.
Just as Curtis was preparing to move, Muir transformed into a human that wasn’t able to fly. With his hands placed on the roof, he jumped onto the walkway on the sixth level and narrowly managed to avoid Curtis’s attack from above.
