Chapter 98: Xi'er (Part II)
The old man was still a little wet. She held a towel to wipe the water in one hand, and continued to knock on the door with the other, "I hear you talking about Xi'er, girl, you know Xi'er, don't you?"
Ruan An was stunned for a moment, and then heard Shen Wen's somewhat embarrassed dissuasion outside, "Mom, how many times have I told you, there is no one named Shen Xi in our family!"
There was a slight commotion outside the door, and Sophia asked with her mouth, "Grandmother Shen Xi?"
Ruan An smiled bitterly and nodded. Then he motioned for the two of them to find a place to hide first, avoiding talking to Shen Wen and the old lady, and he opened the bedroom door and said in a tone that was almost coaxing a child, "Old lady, don't get excited, I'll find you a set of dry clothes to put on first." Let's change our clothes first, don't catch a cold. β
Although the old lady of the Shen family still wanted to continue to ask something, with the joint efforts of Shen Wen and Ruan An, the old lady could only swallow the question back into her stomach for the time being. I changed into a dry outfit. Then he sat down on the couch again, and looked at the sky that was gradually brightening outside, without saying a word.
After sneaking out of the closet, Sophia glanced at Panakaya, "Then I'll find a way to disperse the clouds, and you can help too." It is said that there will be a plague after the flood, so you should at least find a way to suppress the spread of the disease, right?"
"It's easy!" Panakaya waved her little fist, "It's too troublesome to suppress a little, just wipe out all the healing bacteria in the city." β
Sophia shrugged her shoulders, "It's up to you to decide this kind of detail. I don't understand it anyway. Then, she pushed open the window and jumped out, and with a slight tap of her right foot on the tumbling water, the whole person flew at a great speed. In the blink of an eye, Sophia was already above the thick clouds. The sun is not yet fully revealed, but the sky above the clouds is already white.
Sophia is wearing a voluminous black gown today. The slightly shiny skirt is blown by the wind, but it looks quite dusty. She stood still in the air and pulled a heavy-looking hammer from her skirt.
The warhammer is not too long, about a meter to the touch, and there are inconspicuous rust marks attached to it. The hammer head resembles a pineapple, and if it weren't for the beautiful hollow structure on the hammer head and the huge red gems exposed in the hollow structure, I'm afraid most people would think that this is a cultural relic dug up from the ruins of an ancient battlefield.
"Shadow, do my bidding!" Sophia raised her hammer aloft in her hand, and some black began to take shape from the air in all directions. As soon as the black shadow like dust approached the warhammer, it was attracted by the red gem in the hammer head. As the rate of absorption increases, the black shade that is absorbed into the gem gradually obscures the intriguing red color of the gemstone.
The shadow seemed to have weight, and the hammer in Sophia's hand creaked with a tooth-aching crunch, and the metal hammer seemed to bend as if overwhelmed.
"In the name of the God of Assassins!" Sophia's right elbow curled slightly behind her, and her left foot slowly took a step forward with the sound of the warhammer, "Holy Light, that enemy looks worth fighting!"
Shouting something completely out of line with her profession and holding a weapon that no assassin would choose, Sophia, the god of assassins, slammed the warhammer she had been accumulating for a long time.
The swing of the hammer bent in mid-air to a worrying point, and the rust attached to the hammer, as well as the gray coating of the hammer itself, quickly peeled off from the hammer, revealing the dazzling purple-blue color that had been obscured.
"Smack!" With a crisp sound, the warhammer drew a rounded arc beside Sophia. The jewel that had turned black suddenly regained its original bright red. The black granular shadow attached to the gem was thrown out, and after a few moments, countless huge concentric circles suddenly appeared in the clouds beneath Sophia's feetβthe traces left by the rain clouds that had been abruptly erased from the sky.
After absorbing the shadows and wielding the war hammer, after repeating this action dozens of times in a row, Sophia looked at the clear and unobstructed Ningyuan County under her feet, and nodded with satisfaction.
The staff of the Ningyuan County Meteorological Bureau, who were monitoring the clouds, were going crazy. The sudden appearance of precipitation clouds, which were unwarning and completely contrary to common sense, had already made their nerves crumble to the point of making strange crunching sounds. Heavy rains continued for a long time, and the clouds weakened much more slowly than normal. These completely unexplained phenomena have made the three views of these staff members who have been engaged in meteorological work for many years almost collapse. And the fact that the clouds disappeared without warning made them even more mad.
"What's going on?" the director of the Ningyuan County Meteorological Bureau grabbed the stunned radar engineer beside him, swaying back and forth, as if this would shake the answer out of the engineer's head. "What's going on!"
Seeing that Sophia successfully resolved the rain clouds, Panakaya also floated out of the window and stood next to Sophia in the air. She patted Ji You's shoulder with satisfaction, "I can't see it, you still have a good hand at playing with the warhammer." β
The children below say that the real Assassins had the heart of a berserker. Sophia put the hammer back in her clothes. He rubbed his hand on Panakaya's body, "Alright, it's your turn to perform next." β
Panakaya looked at the ocean beneath her feet, and her face became a little solemn. "In this water...... It felt a little wrong. β
"It's all so deep, there must be something wrong, right?" Sophia didn't think much about it, just urged, "Anyway, you deal with the problem of the disease first, and if there is anything else wrong, you can find a way later." β
Sudden floods can bring a lot of sediment and garbage. These things are washed into the city by the flood, and as the flood waters recedes, they will stay in place. Direct sunlight then shines and the temperature rises. The already filthy garbage slowly decays, a large number of bacteria and viruses multiply violently, and mosquitoes, which live in symbiosis with large areas of water, will also become the main route of transmission. If it is not quickly controlled, I am afraid that it will not be long before the entire county will be plunged into a plague.
Panakaya had just planned to use a miracle to completely wipe out the common disease-causing bacteria. But the moment she looked into the stagnant water, she sensed that something was wrong. It was as if what was under his feet was not a flood, but a pool of sticky and heavy blood. She felt a slight chill down her spine, and she was vaguely nauseous.
However, Sophia is right, if there is really any change after disposing of ordinary bacteria, it should be too late to find a way. Panakaya thought to herself, dispelling a trace of unwarranted concern in her mind. Standing in the blue of the sky, he began to cast a blessing.
On the surface of the water, there are several silver aluminum test tubes floating. The lid of the test tube seems to have been bumped by something while drifting. Faintly, you can see green mucus slowly leaking out. After a few swirls in the water, the slime is quickly diluted to the point where it is impossible to see.
Shen Xi, who was lying on the treatment table, suddenly opened his eyes.
