In the next few days, the heavy rain did not stop, but there was a tendency to get bigger and bigger. A lot of the accumulated rainwater did not have time to flow down the mountain and poured into the cave where everyone lived.

The problem of food has not yet been solved, but there is a crisis of survival.

San, who had just returned from hunting, carried a hare that was so thin that it was almost out of shape, and said worriedly: “This will not work, can we change to another cave?”

“I know very well, it should be clear that there is no cave that can accommodate so many of us in the vicinity except for this cave. Moreover, the smaller the caves are, the lower the terrain is. I am afraid that it has already been filled with rainwater. ”

They wanted to wait for the rain to stop and then continue to climb over the mountains, but who would have thought that the rain would keep falling, and they would be trapped here and become trapped beasts.

Now that the food in the clan has reached the bottom, the people who go out to hunt often can’t catch much prey, and if they can’t go out again, they are afraid that they will really be trapped in this cave. Of course, they are more likely to drown before being starved to death.

Looking at the water in the cave that had not yet reached his knees, the patriarch smiled bitterly.

“You can’t go on like this any longer, and if you continue to wait, you will just sit back and wait.” Choosing to go out, or staying inside, is just the difference between early death and late death. Pascal suddenly stood up and was about to go outside.

“Wait, it’s very dangerous to try to climb this mountain now, don’t go! Some of my friends used to climb the mountain in this weather and fell off the mountain!” San stopped Pascal loudly, In his opinion, Pascal’s behavior is courting death.

Although he knew that Pascal was right, if he could die late, everyone would be willing to live a little longer. After all, after waiting for this period of time, there may be a turning point.

Pascal just got out of the cave when he took a deep breath because of the sight in front of him.

The large rain screen slammed on the protective cover around him, and the force was amazing, but he couldn’t feel it anymore, he just stared at his feet.

The turbulent floods have not receded for a long time. These floods continue to swirl under the mountains, forming eddies, and the water surface is constantly rising. When he went out hunting the day before yesterday, the water had just flowed over the foot of the mountain, but today, the water has reached the mountainside, and it is only half a person’s height away from where Pascal was standing!

If they don’t want to leave anymore, I’m afraid they will be flooded by these floods before night!

How so!

Why is this place that has never experienced floods suddenly flooded this year?

The snow-capped mountain that is the source of the flood, has also seen it before. According to the amount of snow on it, although it may cause a flood, it is not at the current scale.

When this situation appeared, it was as if God deliberately drove them out to kill them all.

Pascal’s fists clenched fiercely, no, the most important thing now is to escape from here first, and investigating this abnormal flood has no meaning for them at all. They have to live first before they can think more.

Since the situation is very critical now, even a minute and a second cannot be delayed.

Pascal walked quickly into the cave and told the patriarch and the others what he had seen outside.

“How is that possible!” San obviously didn’t believe all of this, and he quickly ran out of the cave: “When I just went out hunting, I saw that the flood was still some distance away from us…

“The scene, his words stopped abruptly. The patriarch came out behind him, and when he saw the scene in front of him, his anxiety almost solidified. The orcs and sub-beasts who followed Pascal’s words and followed him started to cry in fear and despair. Instead, the patriarch regained some sense of reason and calm.

At this time, everyone can panic, only he can’t panic, his clansmen are still watching him! He must find a way to get them out of here safely!

He turned to the hunter who often hunted on this hill-an orc named Jay. The orc sometimes takes things from his clan to sell, and likewise, he brings back some of the things his clan needs from the outside world.

The patriarch knew that if they still had a chance, then this chance must be tied to Jay.

“I know that there is a passage that leads to the outside world. Can you tell where it is?” the patriarch asked.

He doesn’t go out very much, so he is far less familiar with the terrain here than Jay. If it wasn’t for the heavy rain and his vision was severely affected, maybe he could still find the passage. But now, this has become completely impossible for him.

“I know where it is.” Jay’s lips were very pale: “but its entrance is close to the top of the mountain. It is raining heavily now, and the mountain wall is so slippery that we can’t climb it at all.” It was also for this reason that he did not take the initiative. Mention the passage to the patriarch.

The patriarch’s eyes dimmed.

Could it be that they only have one way to climb the mountain? In this kind of weather, if you want to forcefully climb the mountain wall, it is a very dangerous thing for the orcs, not to mention the sub-beasts whose physical fitness is not as good as the orcs in all aspects? If he wants to escape by climbing a mountain, it means that he has to make up his mind to abandon most of the Asian beasts…

No, the patriarch wiped the rain that hit his face fiercely.

In any case, they cannot abandon their companions! If he wants to live, he must sell his conscience, and he would rather they die here together!

At this time, Pascal spoke, and his voice was still very stable, unlike the obvious panic on the faces of the people around him. There seems to be a contagion about him, which can calm the person he talks to: “That passage is from top to bottom, isn’t it? So, at this height, where is that passage?” He Looking at Gerald: “Can you feel it?”

“Get into the hole with me.” Jera tugged at the cuff of Pascal’s trousers, then stood up and walked into the cave first – now he can no longer walk on all fours, the rain will drown him.

Pascal saw that it was going hard, and when he fished his arms, he fished a small thing into his arms.

""

Pascal followed Gerald’s guidance to the deepest part of the cave. The people of the orc tribe were influenced by Pascal and felt that they might be saved, so they followed with a glimmer of hope.

He stretched out his claws and gestured towards a certain direction deep in the cave: “I can feel a hollow place nearby… Well, it’s about half a cave from here, I don’t know if it’s there? Gerald has not seen any other cave, and his reference is of course the one where he is currently: “But there may be another cave there.” He is not quite sure.

“Ah, I remembered, that cave is really not far from us at this height!” A strong light burst out from Jay’s eyes, but the light quickly extinguished, and he shook his head: “Even if It’s like this, and we can’t escape from that passage.”

The distance of half a cave sounds like it’s not far, but it takes days to dig with bare hands. What’s more, the cave they were in was actually very deep. Even if it was only half a cave, trying to dig it with bare hands would be an impossible task for the orcs.

Moreover, judging from the rate at which the floodwaters were rising, they simply couldn’t wait that long.

“Since we’re sure it’s in that direction, then it’s easy to handle.” Pascal walked to the front of the mountain first, and didn’t care whether his abilities would be exposed. He folded his hands on his chest, and there was a large area the flames spread from his folded arms to the mountain wall, and there was a big gap on the mountain wall in an instant.

The orcs suddenly lit up.

Pascal turned his head: “Are there any of you who have the force, come and help me dig the channel together!”

The orcs with the force accounted for half of the orcs. When they heard Pascal’s words, they stepped forward to work with Pascal. But most of their forces are very weak, and they can’t make a hole in one move like Pascal. They can only add up, but it’s better than nothing. Even those orcs without the Force are silently digging the mountain walls with their bare hands, striving for themselves and their companions to gain a little more life.

After a while, one of them ran out of force. But these orcs who had exhausted the force were not in a hurry to rest. Instead, they began to dig the mountain wall with their bare hands, just like the orcs who did not have the force. He didn’t mean to stop.

No one complained of suffering and tiredness. Now, everyone is racing against time with all their strength.

San and some sub beasts also joined them. Although they are not as powerful as the orcs, before the crisis of the whole tribe, they don’t want to hide behind the orcs anymore, and they also want to do their bit. Maybe their power is insignificant, but what does it matter? As long as there are hundreds or thousands of such insignificant powers, they will be able to have more vitality!

The strength of the orcs and the sub-beasts may not be strong, and their results are far less amazing than Pascal and Claire, who have elemental power, but their perseverance is daunting.

After a while, they actually cut a big hole in the mountain wall.

Before everyone could cheer, they heard Karen, who was hiding in the corner with the two Asian beasts, scream in horror: “It’s too late! It’s too late! The flood is coming to us!”
