Chapter 106: Before the Rainstorm

"It's going to rain. "It's the exclamation that every resident of the Third Flame City will say when they look up at the sky.

The weather on the Butt Plateau is somewhat similar to the Whispering Swamp, but it is very different. Whispering Swamp is the typical rainy season in the summer, spending almost every day in rain, and the continuous rainfall can turn the swamp into a lake, and the lake converges into an ocean. But the Butt Plateau is different, the Butt Plateau is a little drier, and the rainfall is much less frequent than that of the Whispering Swamps, but the rainfall is not at all, and the torrential rain falls from the sky, washing away the world ravaged by the heat and heat.

Therefore, every civilian on the Bute Plateau is looking forward to the rain, and whenever it rains, everyone enjoys the coolness brought by the torrential rain as if it is a festival. Children often sneak out of the house and run into the rain to play, even if the heavy rain has blurred the children's vision, it cannot extinguish the joy and enthusiasm in their hearts, and they will continue to play until their worried parents take them home and give them hot water baths and beat them up.

However, when today's residents look up at the gloomy sky, instead of the usual joy before the rain, they are immersed in pain and suffering. Today's sky was particularly gloomy, with grey cumulonimbus clouds obscuring the blue sky and the dazzling sun, and before noon, the sky was as dark as evening. Although there is no direct sunlight to guide the scorching heat, the gray clouds press low above the city, making the air dull and oppressive, giving people a sense of torment that cannot breathe. The oppressive air was filled with the humidity before the rainstorm, and in the sweltering environment, even if you stood still, fine sweat would continue to ooze from your body, and sweat soaked people's thin clothes, and the wet clothes stuck tightly to their bodies. It makes people feel unspeakably uncomfortable.

In fact, this kind of weather and such suffering are not uncommon, and they can occasionally be encountered a few times during the rainy season, but this time it is different, this time the people, from the oppressive and silent environment, instinctively feel a burst of unease. It seems that something terrible is about to happen, and it seems that some danger is about to befall everyone.

"It's going to rain. On the floating island a few hundred meters above the ground, some mages who occasionally walked out of the real yàn room looked at the sky outside the floating island, and let out the same sigh with heavy faces.

From the edge of the floating island, gray clouds surround you, both above and under your feet, and unlike the ground, you are high in the sky. A faint roar of thunder could be heard echoing in the dark clouds, and the faint electric light, flickering in the clouds, emitted bursts of scorching smell. The mages who lived high in the sky were more sensitive than ordinary people on the ground, and they also felt uneasy, but not the fear before the danger came, but the weight of their hearts like a heavy weight. I always feel that some ominous signs are around me.

"It's going to rain. The busy Felek found a rare break and walked slowly out of the gates of the town hall. Standing on the steps outside the hall, looking up at the gloomy sky with his hands behind his back. The dark clouds rolling in the air were getting thicker and darker, obscuring his vision, so that he could not even find the familiar floating islands that floated forever in the air. Felek shook his head and sighed softly. He said to himself: "This should be the first rainstorm of the year, the rainy season is finally here." Hehe, I used to hate this depressing period before the rainstorm, but today it's really strange, I don't know why. I suddenly feel that such weather also has its favorite side, after all, in this time period, everyone will be full of expectations for the rainstorm in the near future, this yearning for the future, no matter how many times I see it, I will be full of envy. ”

"Your Excellency. Another young gray-robed mage also walked out of the town hall, and asked with a puzzled face, "Did something happen to you, why did you feel this way?"

"Heh, it's just that I'm a little depressed because of the weather. The red-robed Felek shook his head and said softly: "Occasionally, when I am depressed, I wonder if I live an ordinary and ordinary life like these people all my life, will it also be an incomprehensible happiness? Living like them, although it seems pitiful, and the whole life is muddy, but sometimes ignorance is also a kind of happiness, at least they will not have so many unnecessary troubles, and they will not have so many worries. ”

"Ha, Lord Archon must have forgotten that I came out of such an ordinary family. The gray-robed mage smiled and said, "You only see the good side of their life, but you ignore the most important point, that is, even if you live this ordinary and monotonous life, your life will be full of troubles and worries, in this respect, in fact, ordinary people and professionals are the same. Therefore, I would rather choose more troubles than go back to that ignorant life, after all, after seeing a more wonderful world and experiencing the known happiness, it is the most painful torture to return to ignorance. ”

"Oh, you don't understand. Felek didn't continue arguing, but said with a rare smile on his face: "But that's fine, after all, you are the hope of this city, continue to work hard, and in the future, try to rejuvenate the city that the teacher has spent a hundred years of hard work to build." ”

"Renew?" the young gray-robed mage scratched his head and asked suspiciously, "Why is it rejuvenated? Now under the management of you and several ancestors, our city is perfect." ”

"It's just a slip of the tongue. Felek shook his head and said, "Don't worry about this, aren't you going to go home to eat with your parents? Well, but forget it, it's okay to accompany them more, just give you half a day off, anyway, it doesn't make a difference, go quickly. ”

"Thank you, Archon. The bewildered gray-robed mage couldn't understand what Felek was sighing at, but it was also a great pleasure to have an extra half-day off, so the young man nodded, and after leaving a few steps, he remembered something, and suddenly turned around and asked, "My lord, you should go back to the floating island earlier, after all, it is about to rain." ”

"Yes, I know. Felek didn't move, still standing on the stone steps with his hands behind his back: "But I still have to wait for some friends, some friends from afar." (To be continued......)
