I got an S-level talent in the apocalypse, and I will lead Blue Star to rise

Chapter 315 Convocation
Acid rain has been falling intermittently for ten days, and there is still no sign of it stopping; in fact, it is getting heavier and heavier.

Even outside Mo City, puddles of varying sizes began to appear due to the rain, and there were even rivers.

This path is completely impassable.

In Motown, people go to school and work in an orderly fashion.

I only occasionally feel a sense of disorientation when I look at the heavy rain outside.

On the contrary, the children, innocent and naive, discussed whether or not they should sneak out to take a look.

Yuanyuan is Chinese and was sent to Motown by her parents to study.

Although he preferred digging for wild vegetables, his parents insisted that he come to school.

He was already tired of the routine of going between home and school.

The teacher who was lecturing at the top had just turned around to write on the blackboard.

Yuanyuan nudged her friend next to her, "Dandan, should we sneak out later? I heard it's really spectacular outside the city."

The boy, called Dandan, gave Yuanyuan a disdainful look.

“My name is Daniel, not Dandan.”

He was from Motown, and his family was somewhat wealthy, but not aristocratic.

His father had suffered enough from illiteracy, so he sent him here first to teach him to read and write.

Initially, the children from Motown and the children from China were in different classes.

Especially the older students, most of them are Chinese.

Daniel is in first grade, and there are many Chinese children in his class.

He didn't understand why this group of people liked Motown so much and always wanted to go out and see it.

In reality, these Chinese children had been locked in the small room for several months and were already going crazy from being cooped up.

If the acid rain hadn't been so terrifying, they would have fled the city long ago.

Yuanyuan pouted when she saw that her friend was unwilling.

But he's quick-witted; if his friends aren't willing, he'll find someone else.

So he secretly whispered to the children in the back row.

The two children in the back row are both Chinese, and they are usually mischievous.

The three children immediately agreed to sneak out after class.

Why not sneak out after school?

That's because after school, the teachers watch them go home one by one, leaving no chance for them to sneak away.

Daniel lives in Motown, and on weekends when he's not in class, he stays home and reads.

My father told me how terrible the acid rain outside was.

After class, Yuanyuan and the others sneaked out, trying to slip away.

Daniel looked at them, seemingly wanting to say something but holding back.

In the end, I went to the office, found the teacher, and told her about it.

Upon hearing this, the homeroom teacher adjusted his glasses.

She had this specially made to keep these mischievous monkeys in check.

"Okay, I understand the situation. You can go back to class now. I'll go find them."

Having experienced natural disasters, these kids are fearless and always looking to cause trouble.

Yuanyuan wasn't the first to try to sneak out; the homeroom teacher knew perfectly well what loopholes existed in the school.

Yuanyuan and the others came to a corner of the school playground. One of them squatted down, and the other stepped on his shoulders, trying to get up.

Before they could even climb over the wall, the homeroom teacher had already arrived.

Where do you want to go?

Yuanyuan and the others were startled. "Teacher Wang, Teacher Wang."

In the end, the three were obediently dragged back to the classroom, and their escape plan failed.

Daniel breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this.

He didn't really understand why these children wanted to go outside the city so much.

There was clearly nothing there, and it was very dangerous.

But Yuanyuan said, "A free bird cannot be caged!"

After school, the children in China were sent home one by one.

Daniel also saw his mother waiting for him at the school gate.

"Mom!" This is always his happiest moment.

"How are things going? Are you getting along well with your classmates?"

The first thing his mother did when she picked him up was to ask him how he was getting along with his classmates.

Daniel felt a little guilty. "It's...it's fine."

Actually, she initially agreed when her husband insisted on sending Daniel to school.

But on her first day of school, she saw so many Chinese people with completely different appearances and had second thoughts.

She was afraid that these "relatives" of the city lord would bully Daniel at will.

But after working there for several days in a row, she gradually lowered her guard.

Chinese people often strike up conversations with her when they pick up their children.

She even helped her husband close several business deals.

But Daniel looked a little worried today, so she asked him a question.

Seeing that her son didn't say anything, she didn't ask any more questions.

On her way home, as she passed the grocery store, she remembered that she seemed to be running low on salt.

She went inside and saw a smiling shop assistant.

Originally, most of the shops in Mo City were owned by nobles.

The shop's employees were either servants of nobles or people arranged by relatives, and they almost all looked down on people.

But ever since these city lords' "relatives" arrived, they have completely changed the atmosphere of Mo City.

You can come in and browse freely; even if you accidentally come across something, you won't be forced to buy it.

Daniel gave his mother a bag of salt and also asked for a bag of snacks.

"My classmates said this is especially delicious."

Mom thought that the family was still relatively well-off, so she said, "Buy it!"

As the mother and son strolled around, they unknowingly bought quite a few things.

When she got home, she discovered that her husband hadn't gone out at all.

"Didn't you say you were going to see old Neville today? Why are you back so early?"

Old Nawi was an elder of the caravan, and the man went to see him to discuss the next route.

Normally, the man might not come home until late at night.

But why is he back so early now?
Daniel's eyes widened, a bad feeling creeping over him.

The man reminded him, "Daniel, go back to your room and do your homework."

Adults don't want their children to hear about their affairs.

Back in his room, Daniel secretly left a crack in the door and pressed his face against it, trying to hear what his parents had to say.

But he heard nothing.

The man and his wife kept talking, their voices very low.

A short while later, the man went out again.

Hearing the noise, Daniel quickly ran out.

"Mom, what's wrong? Did something happen at home?"

Looking at this precocious child, the woman pulled him into her arms.

"Don't worry, nothing serious has happened. The city lord has just summoned all the caravan captains in the city."

The husband had no idea what the city lord would announce; any decision he made could be devastating to the family.

The man went around asking around for connections, hoping to get some information in advance.

Unfortunately, he was destined to return empty-handed.

The next day, the woman got up early to see her husband off.

Both of them wore forced smiles.

"Don't worry, I'll take care of things at home."

After watching her husband leave, the woman quietly wiped away her tears, sat on the sofa in the living room, and fell into deep thought.

The man boarded the carriage and arrived at the city lord's mansion.

Before I even got off the bus, I saw quite a few familiar faces.

Everyone wore an expression of unease.

No one knows why the city lord would seek them out.
