Bean-sized raindrops soon fell down.
This kind of torrential rain was no better than hail when it hit people.
If the drizzling rain was a dot and the torrential rain was a line, then this violent storm was the surface.
The sky was like a bucket with a hole in it, and endless rainwater poured out from it.
There was no gap in the rain. Lu Chen could only bear the huge pressure and move forward.
No matter how good the drone was, it could not withstand the pressure of this kind of rainfall and still fly in the air. Therefore, Lu Chen had already put away the other drones, leaving only one outside.
After the storm, Lu Chen grabbed the only one and stuffed it into the back pocket that contained Little Xiaofeng and Little Flattop.
Everyone could no longer see the scene outside. They could only guess what kind of desperate situation Lu Chen was in from the howling wind, the violent rain, the light snow, and the helpless cries of Little Flathead Bro.
Could he be panicking, helpless, or had already collapsed?
He didn't.
Even though his vision was blocked by the rain, he had already memorized every step to get close to the cave.
About ten minutes later, Xiao Xuefeng, Little Flattop Bro, and the drone in the back pocket were in a daze. Then, the sound of waterproof fabric rubbing against rocks could be heard.
Brother Lu was climbing into the cave! Isn't it?
Definitely! I already heard the sound of cloth rubbing against each other! If they were still walking in the rain, there would not be such a sound!
I'm an outdoor rock climbing enthusiast. The rocks are the most slippery when it rains. The streamer doesn't have any protective gear either. I hope it's okay...
Just as they had guessed, Lu Chen was indeed climbing towards the cave.
The rain and the plants growing in the crevices of the rocks made every foothold a bottomless abyss.
Fortunately, Lu Chen was well prepared. He had already changed into a waterproof suit and anti-slip rain boots.
Therefore, although he was climbing a little slower, his footsteps were still steady.
Just a little more…
Just a little more!
Lu Chen suppressed his irregular heartbeat due to the short period of high-intensity exercise and looked up at the cave.
It did not matter if he did not look at it, but when he saw it, Lu Chen's heart skipped a beat.
This cave…why is it so small!!
This was too small!
However, the rain outside was getting heavier and heavier. He could not hang outside like this forever.
Gritting his teeth, Lu Chen climbed up the rock wall with one hand. He first threw the backpack that contained Xiao Xuefeng and Xiao Buzzcut into the cave, then stuffed the backpack into it, and finally climbed in himself.
Lu Chen was not exaggerating when he said that this cave was too small.
Previously, when he used the drone to search for this cave, Lu Chen did not control the drone to check it out carefully. He only remembered the location.
Now that he thought about it, it was probably because of the distance and light from the camera that made him make a wrong judgment.
He thought that the cave was big enough, but it was actually not only small, but also very shallow.
Putting in Little Snowfang, Little Flathead, and the backpack, they had already occupied nearly half of the cave.
In addition, it was also low in height, and Lu Chen was tall. Even when sitting in the cave, he had to bulge out his skin. Even when he knelt down, he would bump his head.
Wanting to stretch his legs? Sorry, I can only reach outside the cave.
However, even if it was such a depressing cave, Lu Chen was already very glad.
Because the rain outside was so heavy that it was unimaginable.
He untied the back pocket that he had just thrown in and carried Xiao Xuefeng and Xiao Buzzcut out.
Although the back pocket was made of waterproof fabric, the wind and rain were too strong, and a lot of it still poured into the back pocket.
Their fur was wet.
Xiao Xuefeng was fine. There were no external injuries on her body. It was just a little cold.
However, there was still a wound on his butt.
If the wound that had finally recovered was soaked in water and infected again, wouldn't all his previous efforts be in vain?
Lu Chen quickly picked up the little crewcut and reached out to touch the few medicinal cloths on its buttocks.
Fortunately, the cloth was still very dry, perhaps because the crewcut was pressed under the small snow wind just now.
Lu Chen was slightly relieved.
Little Xiaofeng and Little Flathead were fine, and there were still two "good daughters" in the bag.
He wondered if snakes were afraid of thunder and lightning.
Thinking of this, Lu Chen quickly opened his backpack and took out the box that contained the large worm larva.
Previously, because he was afraid that such a heavy rain would scare the two sisters and cause them to run around, Lu Chen had specially placed them in the box that contained the large worm larvae before he set off.
This way, the two of them would not run around and get lost. When they were hungry, they could eat the larvae in the box to satisfy their hunger.
To be safe, Lu Chen did not open the box directly after taking it out. Instead, he raised it up and looked at it.
Fortunately, the two sisters seemed to be sleeping and were not affected by the lightning and rainstorm.
Lu Chen opened the box with relief and was about to take them out.
After all, they were still his precious daughters. Lu Chen could not bear to let them stay in the box filled with soil and worms all the time.
However, the moment he reached out and touched the bodies of the two small flashing pythons, Lu Chen realized that something was wrong.
Usually, the two little Flash Python sisters liked to wrap themselves around Lu Chen's hands and arms. Lu Chen was very familiar with the touch of the two of them.
The snakeskin of the Flashing Scaled Python was very tough, but it was a kind of toughness that was slightly elastic. Otherwise, the two little fellows would not be so agile.
However, now that he held the two small Flashing Scaled Pythons in his hand, Lu Chen only had one feeling.
It was stiff.
If it wasn't for the fact that the system mission had not failed, Lu Chen would have thought that the two of them had already left.
"Xiao Bai? Xiaobai?"
Lu Chen held the small white flashing python and called out softly.
Usually, when he stretched out his hand, the two of them would crawl onto his body. Lu Chen did not even give them names, so he could only call them that at this time.
Snakes did not have eyelids. Even when they were asleep, there was only a thin layer of transparent membrane covering their eyes.
Hearing Lu Chen's call, the thin film covering the eyes of the small white Flash Python trembled slightly.
The small white flash python struggled to open its eyes.
Its eyes were still as clear and bright as rubies, but Lu Chen felt that its eyes were very tired.
"Hiss…hiss…"
The little white python gently stuck out its tongue and licked Lu Chen's finger. Then, it 'closed its eyes' again and stopped moving.
This time, Lu Chen was really at a loss.
Lu Chen took out the flashlight from his bag as quickly as possible and carefully examined the body of the small white Flashing Python over and over again.
There was no problem. There was no problem anywhere.
But if there was no problem, why would it be like this?!
Lu Chen thought for a long time but still could not figure out what was going on.
She took out her phone from her bag and wanted to call Qin Xin to ask what was going on. However, the thunderstorm and heavy rain had a strong impact on the signal of the base station, so she couldn't make a call at all.
Even the live broadcast was temporarily interrupted.
Calm down, calm down…
He could only rely on himself now.
Lu Chen forced himself to calm down as possibilities flashed through his mind one after another.
In the end, it was still locked onto the 'molting.'
Previously, Qin Xin had reminded him that the shedding of the Flashing Scaled Python would be more special, and the third phase of the system mission also required the two sisters to "successfully shed their skin".
However, there were no signs of them shedding their skin…
Lu Chen did not believe it and checked again.
This time, he finally noticed a slight difference!
