Chapter 419: Unusual Rain
Matthew made the necessary arrangements, and the people that Jaden wanted to meet were brought over. Jaden did not do anything other than telling them that he would be observing them for the next few days before deciding on what he was going to do.
His Initial plan was to give this group of people abilities, so that they would be able to continue working as bodyguards even in the chaotic situation after he had released the mutation gas.
But then, he thought of something. What if he gave them the abilities, and instead of continuing being bodyguards and working for him, they decided to go their own ways?
It was not as If he was having any metal that he could guarantee the loyalty of this group of people. It was not something that could be found even within the system store.
It was clear to him that If he wanted someone that would be loyal to him, it would only work if he decided to purchase human resources from the system store.
But that was not something that he was currently planning to do. Yes, it was part of his plans, but at least not for the time being. Currently, the person with the strongest ability that he could get was one with the grade A ability.
But, the mutation gas that was going to be released was going to lead to the appearance of many more mutants. And there was a great possibility that there was going to be the appearance of a mutant with a grade S ability.
Jaden understood one thing. Even though it was true that the system could grant him humans as long as he spent money, those humans were not from other civilizations. Instead, they were from within this very same world that he was in.
Clearly, grade A ability was the best that could be found. And obviously, it was not from the leader of the Raven mercenary group, as even after Jaden had killed that person, the option of getting a mutant with a grade A ability was still there.
As for the group that had been brought over, they were quite confused by Jaden's decision, including Matthew. From the conversation before, and the actions that had followed, which included them being transported from wherever they were through helicopters, it seemed that there was an emergency.
But now, Jaden had simply told them to wait for the next few days? That was something that confused them, including Matthew. But Matthew thought of something.
He remembered that Jaden had said that in the next few days, some changes were going to happen. Could it be that Jaden was waiting for those changes? So, what kind of changes were the ones that Jaden was waiting for?
….
After meeting up with the group, which surprisingly included Sasha Davis, Jaden finally decided that it was time for him to release the gas.
The moment that he thought of that, he immediately communicated with the AI. "Release the gas."
{Will be done within the next 5 seconds.}
The reason why the AI was capable of releasing the gas was simply because of the apparatus that were being used to contain the gas. They were connected online, allowing the AI to be able to operate them.
It was a clear day, and there was no any sign of rain. The snow had already begun melting, and people had finally begun moving around without wearing thick sweaters.
The streets were currently bustling, with people moving to and fro. The traffic was once again congested, which was something to be experienced especially during winter.
"Hey, what's happening? I thought that the weather forecast said that there was not going to be rain today, especially considering that we are just moving from winter."
"Huh? Rain? What train are you talking abo- Huh? When did the clouds appear in the sky? Was it just not a few seconds ago that I was looking up in the sky, when I saw that it was completely clear?"
"Can someone tell me if this world is going to undergo apocalypse? Something like this is what I have read about and seen in those apocalypse movies."
"Stop being delusional. What apocalypse are you talking about? Just because the weather suddenly changed, being completely against the predictions that have been made by the weather forecast, you think that the world is going to experience the apocalypse?"
"You think that I'm joking? Just wait. I'm telling you, this world is going to undergo an apocalypse."
Such conversations could be heard all over the world. But the same thing was common to everyone, including those mutants in Nazu nation, they were confused by the appearance of the clouds in the sky.
It might be true that In some areas, clouds were already high up in the sky, but still, they darkened even further, but there was no rain that was coming down.
The situation Intensified, to the extent that the clouds that had appeared immediately blocked the Sun, preventing its rays from reaching the ground.
The areas that had been previously experiencing winter, and war just about to start experiencing another season suddenly felt the temperatures that had just begun rising begin to plummet again.
For the mutants, they tried using the abilities that they possessed, trying to understand what was going on, but they realized that they could not find anything at all.
This was definitely the first time in the history of mankind where, clouds appeared all over the world. And, there was a great similarity between the clouds in all areas, indicating that the cause of the appearance of the clouds all over the world was the same.
For an entire day, no any other change occurred. The entire world had been plunged into a moment of darkness, and the only source of light was from the electric lights and other lighting devices.
And for the first time in the entire history of mankind within this world, they experienced a situation where 24 hours of darkness reigned.
Just as people were confused about what was going on, the following day, at the exact time that they think clouds appeared in the sky, another change suddenly occurred.
Rain drops began dropping from the clouds above them. Rain was not something that was considered strange, but in this situation, it was considered extremely strange.
The reason behind that being that the rain drops were actually green in color. People were used in seeing the rain drops being clear in color, but for the first time, they saw a green rain.
The rain water that was gathered in different areas was actually green. It was as if several plant life had appeared within a water reservoir.
Most of the people all over the world try as much as possible in order to avoid the rain, but for those that were curious about it, they allowed themselves to be drenched by the rain. Well, that even applied to those people that could not find shelter on time, or never bothered after they had been found by the rain while outside.
But all those people that experienced the rain that was ongoing for several hours could not help but find that there was something strange just a few minutes after experiencing the rain.
They suddenly felt that their body temperatures had begun decreasing at a rapid pace. And in just a little while, they collapsed onto the ground, as their bodies began spasming. Continue your saga on empire
The others that were observing the situation were dumbfounded. They immediately rushed over to try and see what was going on with those that had collapsed, while others immediately made a vow not to expose themselves to the rain.
As for those that went to help the group of people that was spasming, they realized that they could not find anything unusual about these people, other than the fact that their bodies kept on spasming.
Additionally, a little while after they themselves had been exposed to the rain, they began experiencing the same situation.
So, some people with raincoats and other methods of blocking the rain took action. They managed to take those groups of people from the rain, and rushed them to the hospital.
And, this was something that was happening all over the world, indicating that the hospitals all over the world were suddenly stormed by a large number of patients.
As for the doctors, they could not understand what was going on with the patients. All the equipment in the hospital showed that everything about the patients was normal.
But at this point, many people, including the governments in different parts of the world already understood that the cause of this was obviously the rain that was completely strange. So, an announcement was made, advising the citizens all over the world to try and avoid exposing themselves to the rain.
After all, if it turned out that after getting exposed to the rain, people would actually die or suffer some incurable diseases, then things would obviously get complicated. And, there was a probability of a worldwide pandemic of diseases that did not have cures emerging.
At the same time, for the second time yet again in the same month, leaders all over the world held a meeting again. This time, they were discussing about the rain.
