151. Disaster
There are smart people who have already hid in it, Jiang Che found out.
However, he didn't care about anything, anyway, the purpose of renting a house was just to save people.
Wave the mage's hand to push the clutter away from the front door.
The crowd rushed in. Someone accidentally slipped and fell into the water and almost didn't get trampled to death.
The scene was extremely chaotic for a while.
Jiang Che and Leng Yue could only struggle to maintain order, and those who fell were helped up by the hands of the mages.
After about five minutes, the line behind him was finally emptied...
Jiang Che smiled contentedly.
The task of reaping gratitude a hundred times is considered overfulfilled. System rewards begin to be settled.
I don't know what the reward of lucky plus one is, but it's better than nothing...
"Che, what are you doing, it's raining so hard outside?" Li Rong had just finished class, and her consciousness contacted Jiang Che and found that someone was outside.
"I housed homeless people outside and have now gone back." Jiang Che replied thoughtfully.
As a student, he had seven days off. Li Rong didn't, she wanted to rest for seven days and was called to class.
"Yes, there will be a lot of people affected by the disaster at this time, and the principal should be told." Li Rong appeared in the principal's office with one step.
At this time, Nozomi herself was not present.
A remnant of the Spell Illusion sat on the table, looking at Li Rong with a faint gaze.
"What's the matter?"
"I'm thinking about the living conditions of the victims outside, and whether we need to organize people to rescue them."
"Ordinary students, don't make a mess, without a mage shield in this rain, it will only look embarrassing. The official mage has already started to inform, you don't need to worry about it, you just need to prepare the class. ”
Li Rong thought about it, and this is also the truth.
Before leaving the principal's office, he hesitantly glanced out the window.
It's raining so hard!
The imperial capital began to flood again, this time spreading to the knee above. Many residents living in low-lying terrain were forced to flee.
At this time, the benefits of living on the upper floors of the building are reflected. In fact, high-rise buildings are not popular in the imperial capital, and both the poor and the rich are more inclined to live in bungalows and villas.
The casters pulled the water, but were powerless in the face of a rainstorm rarely seen in decades. People can only be encouraged to run to higher ground.
Perhaps it was the organization of a large number of people to release the spell to disperse the rain clouds at intervals, and the rain gradually became smaller with the passage of time. However, the situation is still not optimistic...
Some people have begun to show signs of hypothermia, collapsed in the sewage, and never got up again.
Jiang Che and Leng Yue were drafted out not long after they arrived home.
Not long afterward, the Imperial Capital's protective barrier was opened again. It is said that this time it was only twenty minutes!
What can you do in twenty minutes?
Smart people will calm down and think of a way, as for ordinary citizens, most of them follow behind the crowd, looking for a place where they can shelter from the rain.
Soon, every building in the districts of the imperial capital was crowded with people.
The hallways, the stairs, everything where you can stand is stuffed.
The consuls also wanted to requisition the residences of the inhabitants of the building and offered to compensate them. As a result, it was met with serious opposition and protests, and almost did not cause a new round of turmoil.
People are selfish.
Including Jiang Che too. After completing the task, he was a little hesitant to temporarily give up his mansion to the victims of the disaster.
So beautiful new home, shiny hardwood floors, newly bought wool mats...
"No, don't think about it, we don't have many people in our house, you might as well think about other troubles." Leng Yue seemed to read Jiang Che's thoughts, and interrupted loudly.
"Why not?" Jiang Che asked seriously.
"If we open the barrier, the water that is blocked by the door will rush in immediately, and the first floor will immediately flood. Then there are the second and third floors, how many people do you think you can squeeze? Leng Yue thought.
"At least a thousand, if anything, maybe far more." Jiang Che is very confident in the area of his mansion.
"How many people do you know?" Leng Yue asked again.
"More than half a million people in our district have been severely affected." Jiang Che had heard it mentioned.
"So, does it work?" Cold Moon waved her mage's hand to open a clogged sewer.
"It would be useful if everyone accepted it together." After Jiang Che finished speaking, he felt that it was unrealistic. Those rich people will give up their mansions to ordinary people?
No kidding.
Even if it is yourself, it takes a long time to make a painful and hesitant decision.
Those who are selfish will not allow the victims to enter their homes.
There are only a few minutes left until the end of the Protective Barrier.
Jiang Che raised his head in a daze, looking at the cloudy sky from afar, the current was beating rapidly, "Cold Moon, is there a way to reduce the consumption of the protective barrier and make it last longer?" ”
"Yes, it's a solution to the problem." Leng Yue frowned in contemplation, and conveyed her thoughts to the organizer, the Neo Holy Order Mage.
Neo Rank mage replied, "There have been people who have mentioned similar ideas in the past, but I tell you, it is impossible to change at all, because it is now the minimum power of the Protector Barrier. No matter how low it is, the protective layer will not be able to coalesce. The thinner layer of energy is nothing, and nothing can stop it. ”
