Beauty and the Beasts

Chapter 313 It’s Raining

If they created the vibration effect, even if it was an ice mountain in the skies, combined with this topography that was richly endowed by nature, the ice would shatter from the vibration, wouldn’t it?

Since there wasn’t a strong breeze, they waited for a long time before the cloud drifted over like a tortoise.

All the preparations were in place. The skies started turning dark, and Bai Qingqing could sense all the beastmen present waiting with bated breaths. It was so quiet it was as though one could hear the sound of the cloud floating.

Bai Qingqing, seated by the hillside, couldn’t help getting to her feet. Parker and Curtis were standing on her left and right respectively.

Winston glanced at her, and Bai Qingqing returned that with an affirmative gaze.

“Listen to my commands.” Winston raised his hand.

The edge of the cloud had only just shifted into the skies above this territory when the beastmen could no longer hold themselves back. Clenching their fists in anticipation, they swallowed their saliva and cleared their throats, their fiery gazes fixed upon that beastman with a perfect and powerful physique.

Right now, in the eyes of those beastmen, Winston was their only hope. None of them had any idea that the one who devised this plan was a delicate and frail female.

After taking in a deep breath, Winston abruptly waved his hand downwards. “Roar!”

A deafening roar exploded throughout the terrain. Just the howl of one beastman could blast a person’s eardrums; with ten thousand beastmen roaring in unison, it felt like the earth was about to shatter from the impact. Unless one personally experienced it, it was hard to imagine just how mind-blowingly powerful that sound was.

Just the aura alone was enough to cause a behemoth to retreat in fear. The plants throughout the mountains and wilderness shook as the sound waves rippled throughout the region, refracting in the mountains and into the skies.

Bai Qingqing let out a shriek and retreated one step, using her hands to cover her ears. Right away, Curtis grabbed her body to help steady her footing. Parker, too, looked towards her with concern.

That short and explosive howl lasted around one second before abruptly stopping. The beastmen quickly took in a breath, before Winston waved his hand once more, and the beasts unanimously howled again.

Using his body to block Bai Qingqing, Parker said, “Are you afraid? I’ll bring you out.”

Bai Qingqing shook her head. She was merely startled by the sound, and when she covered her ears and looked over again, she was astounded by the formation of the beastmen. If it wasn’t for the fact that she had been living with them for a year, she would have thought that this was a batch of well-trained soldiers. Winston truly had solid leadership capabilities—from his actions to his expressions, he resembled a stern army instructor. He was simply born to be a leader.

However, as she listened to the deep howls which one couldn’t distinguish whether came from a human or a beast, she glanced at the beasts in her surroundings, and her lips couldn’t help twitching a bit. If one were to replace the beasts in this scene to wild animals, other than being impactful, it would also look extremely comical.

Bai Qingqing looked up at the skies. As she listened to the roars, her heart grew tenser and tenser.

Will they succeed?

It should work, right? There’s no reason for it not to work.

But these were merely theories that hadn’t yet been put into practice. What if they failed?

Time seemed to slow down several magnitudes due to Bai Qingqing’s perception. Each and every one of those slow and deep howls felt like a gigantic rock pounding upon her heart.

But in fact, the beastmen had only roared four to five times.

Suddenly, a splash sound—which resembled the shaking of non-woven bags—was magnified using an amplifier, causing all the startled beastmen to look over. That included Bai Qingqing, Curtis, and Parker.

The color of that patch of ground had turned into a darker shade of brown from the moisture. Before the beastmen could react, they heard another splash sound, followed by a halt, before yet another splash sound rang in their ears.

The splash sounds came for as many howls the beastmen let out earlier, before completely stopping.

Finally finding back her voice, Bai Qingqing covered her mouth in amazement. “It’s raining…”
