Their ATV skipped atop the water than it drove. That was the feeling. The vehicle kept jumping up with every bump, and the bumps were not small. If not for his increased dexterity, Eric would have both the vehicle and the people would have fallen by the roadside long since. They encountered a particularly large bump as they came up to the bamboo house. The ATV jumped as high as three meters, landing on the parking lot. ‘ plop ‘ ‘ klink ‘ There were two sounds from the vehicle. The tires burst, the wheel frame was broken. Eric did not care about that at all but pulled his grandfather out of the vehicle, then put the entire thing in the inventory. His grandfather looked like he had many questions, Eric ignored them all. “ We must hurry ! “ Eric pulled him by the hand. “ Mom, pick up Mimi. We need to go up the mountain ! “ Eric shouted as soon as he entered the home. His mother and grandmother had just taken a hot bath, changed their clothes to pajamas. He did not even give them ti
The decision to direct the tip into the bay proved to be both right and wrong. The wave, which would have hit the coiling dragon island, then wrecked the coast line was broken out of its path. However, the arrow has become a cyclone of water, rising the already gigantic height of the thousand meter high sea into a single whirlpool taller than the dragon horns. They would be submerged, and pulled in to the sea with more than thousands of kilograms of force. If that water touches them, they will be minced meat ! His grandfather, grandmother, mother and little sister were standing atop the hill, looking at the swirling pool of water around them in utter shock. The cyclone is two meters taller than the place by two meters. Only the lighting rod is taller than the whirling water pool. He levitated all of his family up without hesitation. The water is closing in on him. He pushed a small bubble up and around him using water manipulation, but his mana is low ! Water is too strong ! Fo
Eric lifted his arm, aimed at the fish. He only had one chance at this. The plate sank once more. However, this time, the fish had more than enough mana to pull the water up. It lined up with Eric, a spectral water shark roared in the water behind it. Just as the beast was about to swallow him, Eric fired a single shot, straight into the beast’s mouth with his gun. The next moment, it’s as if the time had stood still. The blue fish, swimming through the ocean like the king of the sea, vanished in bubbles piece by piece. The gigantic swirling pool around the island kept it’s shape despite the death of calamity beast, rising in height with each growing minute. Air around their family stood static, as they looked up the rising water wall with dread. As the water pressure built, the basin plate sank lower and lower in the ground, conversely, the height of the dragon horn mountain rose. Eric and family felt like they were on a gigantic bull rider machine with how badly the mountai
It was still raining heavily. Eric set up a tent one more time. A bigger and sturdier one - whose only disadvantage is being ugly. It’s not even fugly like a pug, it’s plain ugly like a plastic boat. Yet, it’s rain resistance is top notch, it came with a dry flooring of about a palm tall. Eric set up a water collector on one side, collecting the rainwater. At this height, they can drink it directly. His mother started cooking right away. Eric fiddled in the corner with setting up a diesel generator. His grandfather has gotten through to the old man on the island town, and informed them that they won’t need a rescue. All the same, the government is sending a medical team to check up on them. They still wore the oxygen nebulizers, but removed their life jackets. Mimi has long since came out of her child bag, and she is fast asleep in her own little bed. They all changed their clothes, had a bath, then, drank warming medicine brewed by his grandmother. The generator was up and runn
“ What ? “ Eric thought he’s hearing auditory hallucinations. All soil on the island has been washed away ! The pier has been crushed into fertilizer , the fishing boat they have had for a mere month is twisted into a churro … they barely have a bag of rice left ! In such a scenario, the old man still wanted to live on the island ? Eric was dumbfounded. “ Grandfather, I think you do not understand ! There is no soil on the island, not even sand ! Before, we drove an ATV to ride up to the house on the plateau. Now, the same drive is impossible. The bay is still open, but … the pier is broken. The ramp we use to tow the boats through has become a cliff ! Just how do you plan to live on this island ? “ Eric was pissed. “ The bamboo grove is fine. I see it from here. “ His grandfather retorted. “ Do you want to be a panda, eating only bamboo ? In that case, sorry ! No chance ! The bamboo roots are rotting. Don’t forget, the grove has been soaked in salt water. It may look alive now
The night has fallen like a wet blanket of darkness. In the deep darkness, a man is skating at top speed on sunglasses. He avoided all the obstacles easily, and made it to the only place in a fence with a hole in it. He effortlessly slipped through the fence, then entered an apartment through the backdoor. It’s Peter Ho’s apartment building. ◆◇◆A dark balloon reflecting the night sky flitted through the sky, gently sliding through the air. It arrived at the rooftop of a skyscraper, then came to a slow stop. A little girl in hot pants and a fitted black shirt jumped down from the balloon. There are holsters on her thighs, daggers on knee high boots, twin blades on her back and extendable claws on her elbows. She moved with the grace of a cat, jumping down from the building top, going floor by floor, she jumped into the third apartment from the top, and rolled into a stop, holding her gun at the ready. She looked all around, making sure no targets showed up in her map, then walked
As Eric watched the eternal lightning that connected their island to the sky, he finally gave up on convincing his grandfather. Sometimes, you just have to wait for people to realize facts on their own. Worse yet, at his grandfather’s age, with valid reasons, he is more stubborn. Since they made their decision, Eric could only equip them with as many skills needed for survival as possible. The lightning made their continuing stay here uncomfortable, but they can’t go down just now. First, he needs to initiate them as players. Now that he has server chat activated, it is best if they are initiated as players. Their current talents being enhanced is more than enough to guarantee their survival and safety for the time being. It is just as well there is a tunnel from here to the dragon temple they could use. Eric took his mother down the tunnel first. Followed by mimi, and his grandparents. He first touched the dragon statue to make sure the electricity was not flowing through the stat
He came up in a village. There are hundreds of people around him, in a small village congregation type area.“ Heroes ! Please help. The mountain floods are about to arrive any moment now. We need to raise the embankment height ! “ The village chief is shouting.[ Mission ][ Save the village from flooding ][ Failure penalty : passive debuff title unreliable ][ Success Reward : Quest Altar blueprint ]( accept ) ( deny )Eric looked at the person beside him.
