Webnovel Author In The Apocalypse World-Chapter 420: The Rainmaker

However, he did ask for one on behalf of the Giant Pasture Grass.

Despite its massive size, the Giant Pasture Grass was, at its core, like a child—aside from being lazy, it was no different from an eager, playful kid.

So, Kim Haru requested an extra-large bundle of Nimbus Baa Sheep-shaped kites for the Giant Pasture Grass.

While the other people each held onto one or two Nimbus Baa Sheep, the remaining large flock was all tied to the Giant Pasture Grass.

The fluffy white Nimbus Baa Sheep clustered together, floating high in the sky with the Giant Pasture Grass holding onto them.

If not for the ropes securing them, they would have been indistinguishable from actual clouds.

The Giant Pasture Grass was thrilled to be playing with these strange toys that were somewhere between kites and balloons.

It gripped the Nimbus Baa Sheep ropes with its leafy tips, moving them around excitedly, completely immersed in its fun.

Kim Haru glanced up at the vast flock of Nimbus Baa Sheep in mid-air, then looked down at their shadows cast on the ground.

Suddenly, a thought popped into his mind.

Speaking of which, are Nimbus Baa Sheep afraid of heat?

Kim Haru stared at the Nimbus Baa Sheep, which were being flown like kites by the crowd, and started to get an idea.

The Nimbus Baa Sheep were, of course, not afraid of the heat.

Their thick wool provided excellent insulation—not only keeping them warm in the cold but also cool in the heat.

Even under the scorching midday sun, they remained energetic when left outside.

This provided Kim Haru with the perfect conditions to execute his plan.

That afternoon, the sun continued to blaze in the sky, radiating heat over everything below.

Although it was slightly cooler than noon, the temperature was still high.

Many people had resumed their work, but before long, they were drenched in sweat.

One by one, they were forced to take shelter inside the buildings, cooling off for a moment before returning to continue their tasks.

Just as they were working in this cycle of labor and rest, a vast shadow suddenly appeared, covering them entirely.

It was as if the sun had vanished in an instant.

The sudden change made everyone pause what they were doing and look up.

And the sight that greeted them left them in shock.

"What is that...?"

"Oh my god, am I seeing this right? A huge cloud?"

"It suddenly feels so much cooler!"

"Wait... why does that cloud have ropes attached to it?"

"Holy—! Those are Nimbus Baa Sheep!"

"What?!"

"Nimbus Baa Sheep? How did they get up there?!"

"Watch out! Something's falling!"

Before anyone could react, things started dropping from the massive shadow above.

Cool, damp, and refreshing against their skin.

Water!

Their initial wariness was instantly washed away as the droplets hit them.

"It's rain! It's actually raining!"

"No way! Rain? In this heat?!"

"Come outside, hurry! This rain feels amazing!"

"Aren't those Nimbus Baa Sheep? How are they making it rain?"

"I see Mr. Kim at the end of those ropes!"

In all their time struggling through the apocalypse, no one had ever seen a drop of rain during the blazing summer.

The scene before them was nothing short of a miracle, leaving them astonished.

One by one, they ran into the rain, cheering and laughing like children.

After their initial excitement settled, curiosity took over—how exactly had it started raining?

The massive cloud formed by the flock of Nimbus Baa Sheep was impossible to miss, and the rain had only begun after they appeared.

Anyone with a bit of sense could connect the two.

And those kite-like ropes hanging from the sky?

Everyone noticed them, too.

When someone pointed out that the ropes led back to Kim Haru, everything clicked into place.

Of course—it was Mr. Kim.

Making it rain was nothing for him.

Perhaps there was nothing in this world that Kim Haru couldn't do!

The crowd's gazes at the end of the Nimbus Baa Sheep lines were filled with fervent admiration and reverence.

They were itching with curiosity, wanting to see firsthand how the rain had been brought down.

However, at the same time, they worried about interfering with Kim Haru's work.

So all they could do was steal a few longing glances in that direction.

Then, someone snapped them out of their daze with a scolding.

"What are you all standing around like fools for? Do you think Mr. Kim went through all this trouble to bring us rain just so we could stand here dumbfounded? With such a great opportunity, how can we afford to waste it? Get moving! Work harder and finish your tasks properly—that's the best way to repay him!"

The rain was already falling, and they'd figure out the details later.

For now, they couldn't let Mr. Kim's effort go to waste.

With that, everyone suppressed their urge to follow the Nimbus Baa Sheep lines and resumed their work.

That's right—how could they waste the precious rain he had brought them?

The brief pause caused by the unexpected rainfall ended, and everyone got back to their tasks.

Without the scorching sun beating down on them and with the cool rain carrying away the heat, their work efficiency skyrocketed.

Their movements became swift and precise, and the previous exhaustion and irritability disappeared entirely.

The rainfall didn't last long, and its coverage area was limited.

Soon, people noticed that the "cloud" above them was slowly drifting away.

Before they could panic, a researcher wearing a badge from the institute stepped forward and explained, "The current rain coverage area is still small, so we need to move along a set route. Don't worry—if this experiment succeeds, rain will become a regular occurrence."

Hearing this, the crowd finally relaxed.

They had been anxious, fearing that the precious rain would leave and never return.
