My brother entrusted his child to me, and I livestreamed raising the baby, making the Empress cry wi

The crowd's curious gazes darted back and forth between Lin Ye and the enormous creature, their expressions a mixture of doubt and anticipation.

Suddenly, Lin Ye looked up at the thing, and before anyone knew what had happened, the thing began to vibrate slightly. The vibration was extremely light and slow, as if something that had been dormant for a long time was slowly awakening inside the cylinder, stretching its limbs.

The grayish-white luster on the surface of the tube moved slightly with the vibration, like a pool of moonlight rippling in the wind.

The light was not dazzling, but had an indescribable texture, neither silver nor jade, which made people feel as if their souls were drawn into it at first glance.

The water around the pipe outlet changed first. The previously calm water suddenly rippled, with fine, neat circles of ripples spreading silently in all directions. Each circle shimmered with a murky yellow light, only to be shattered by the subsequent raindrops.

Then, the murky water seemed to be drawn by some unseen force, slowly and steadily flowing towards the pipe opening.

A shallow whirlpool gradually formed on the surface of the water, spinning faster and deeper.

Various fallen leaves, broken wood, tattered clothes and other messy floating objects began to swirl and gather towards the vortex from all directions, disappearing without a trace as soon as they entered the pipe.

Is it absorbing water?

However, although this thing was not small, it was not that big compared to the vast expanse of water. Even if it were completely filled, it probably wouldn't hold even one percent of the water in the area. ... Everyone looked on in confusion.

After a while, a sharp-eyed soldier noticed the parts of the houses in the low-lying farmland on the right that were above the water and suddenly felt that something was wrong.

He scratched his head, took two more steps closer, and looked more closely. It seemed that the part above the water was longer.

Those houses were earthen houses belonging to farmers along the official road. The rammed earth walls had long been softened by water, and the roofs were covered with gray-black tiles, showing that they were quite old.

The farmland was low-lying, and the accumulated water almost swallowed the entire house, leaving only half of the gray roof exposed, which looked like a few stones floating on the water from a distance.

The roof now appears to be slowly growing out of the water, with a noticeably larger section visible above the surface.

One by one, the tiles that had been submerged by the water reappeared, covered with yellowish-brown mud, glistening wetly in the rain. A few blades of grass were still stuck in the cracks between the tiles, dripping water.

The soldier rubbed his eyes hard, blinked hard, and squinted to look carefully, afraid that he was seeing things, or that the continuous rain had made him dizzy and that he might be mistaken.

Raindrops drifted down his face, cool and refreshing, but he was oblivious to them, only feeling a tightness in his throat and a rapid pounding in his heart.

Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that the exposed portion was indeed increasing very slowly. Although the speed was extremely slow and barely noticeable without close inspection, it was a real and tangible increase.

He immediately pointed incredulously at the houses, his voice trembling with excitement, and shouted, "Look! The water level is dropping!"

The shout was sharp and urgent, carrying far through the rain. Everyone who looked in the direction he was looking was shocked.

"It's really going down...it's really going down!"

"That roof...it's definitely more exposed than before! I remember it only showed a little below the ridge, but now half of the entire roof is showing!"

"My God! This thing is incredible!"

……

The crowd immediately stirred. The soldiers chattered amongst themselves, their voices filled with barely suppressed excitement and shock.

The medical officers also gathered in twos and threes by the water's edge, squatted down, and reached out to try it.

A medical officer's hands trembled violently. He gestured at the water's surface, then looked up at the silently rotating grayish-white cylinder in the distance, muttering, "This thing..."

His voice was muffled by the sound of the rain, but the vibration in it was still audible.

The water on the official road was overflowing from the rice paddies on both sides, and it was connected to the accumulated water on both sides. At this moment, the water level was also slowly dropping.

The soldiers looked down at their feet; the muddy water, which had just reached their calves, now seemed to have become shallower.

The crowd's gazes towards the infinite water pump were now filled with shock and awe. This thing was truly amazing!

After confirming the effect, Lin Ye immediately took out two more and placed them on the right side, then started using them together.

Three enormous, gray-white vehicles stood side by side on the right side of the official road, their short, thick metal legs deeply embedded in the water-soaked roadbed, as if they had grown out of the ground and were incredibly stable.

Rainwater hit the tube body and slid down its smooth surface without leaving a trace, making the three fuselages appear even more austere and mysterious.

Three thick pipes were stuck together in the water, causing the water level at the pipe openings to sink in. Three whirlpools swirled around each other, creating some interference and pulling out several crisscrossing streams of water.

The water level dropped rapidly. Visibly, the water on the official road, along with the upper layer of water from the fields on the left, began to flow continuously towards the three pipes. The water washed over the road surface, carrying layers of mud and forming several turbid torrents around the pipes.

The wild grasses that had been submerged on both sides of the official road have reappeared, their leaves covered with yellow mud. They droop in clumps in the rain, looking disheveled, but at least they have seen the light of day again.

Then, Lin Ye ignored the situation and took out a flying sword.

The flying sword was only about the size of a palm in my hand, its entire body shimmering with golden light, and there were several extremely fine patterns faintly visible on its blade.

The raindrops fell on the sword without stopping, but were repelled by an invisible force, turning into finer mist that dispersed in the wind.

[A flying sword: Used for manned flight. Its size, speed, and altitude are all controlled by the user's will. It can reach a maximum speed of 200 kilometers per hour and a maximum altitude of 150 meters. A single use cannot exceed one hour. Required Shock Points: 900000.]

This was exchanged when I first came to Great Flame to take away Old Ye's remains. I haven't used it since, but this time, I can use it again.

Lin Ye told everyone to wait where they were, while he took two steps forward while carrying the little bag.

Then, he gently tossed the small flying sword in his hand into the air. With a thought, the sword made a soft "hum" and grew longer in the wind.

In the blink of an eye, it transformed from the size of a palm into a giant sword over ten feet long, hovering steadily about three feet above the ground.

The previously subtle lines on the sword's blade have now become clear, resembling some kind of ancient runes, emitting a faint glow that, in its flickering light, gives one the feeling that the sword possesses a spirit.

Lin Ye, carrying the little boy, stepped onto the flying sword, which soared into the air amidst the astonished and reverent gazes of the crowd.
