Following Jotaro's instructions, Jolyne extended the range of the silk threads upwards as well.

Dio is nearby, and he will definitely launch another attack soon.

Although pausing time is an incredibly powerful ability.

However, if you can't see the opponent's attack, you won't know when to initiate a time stop.

The ability to stop time without knowing when it will activate is practically useless and can actually become a weakness.

Because after one time stop is activated, it takes several seconds before it can be activated a second time.

Those few seconds when the time stop cannot be activated could cost them their lives.

That's why Jotaro needed Jolyne's threads as a medium for exploration.

However, at that moment, Jolyne suddenly felt a sticky sensation under her feet.

She looked down and was surprised to see a pool of blood at her feet.

And emerging from the blood was a pale face—it was Ames!

Chapter 788 Blood Rain

How did Ames end up here?

Jolyne was stunned.

But she soon discovered that Ames was dead.

Only Ames's face emerged from the pool of blood!

Her body has completely disappeared!!

Not only that, Jolyne also saw the black floaters in the blood, but these floaters were already motionless and completely dead.

These planktonic organisms are none other than FF!

"Ughh ...

The sudden shock of the scene before her eyes caused Jolyne to let out a mournful cry.

Ames and FF were killed.

Except for her head, Ames's entire body below the neck disappeared, while FF dissipated into planktonic organisms scattered in Ames's blood.

In just a moment...

Did Dio eliminate the two of them in just a fleeting moment of light?

At this moment, Lu Ye, Josuke, and Jotaro also noticed this phenomenon.

But there is no time left for grief and prayer.

It seems likely that the weather forecaster and Emporio were also murdered.

Dio is still alive, but his abilities are unknown, and it's uncertain when the next attack will come.

We must be fully alert and prepared for the impending attack.

"Damn it... We have no idea what Dio is doing. Let's move on, Jotaro-san. It's too dangerous to stay in this open area!" Josuke couldn't help but say.

“No.” Jotaro shook his head. “Although I don’t know Dio’s exact location, I can sense that he’s very close to us, probably within twenty meters. If we rush towards the nearest building now, we’ll be playing right into his hands. We’ll be crushed the moment we move. So, is the reason he’s not attacking because of time stop?”

“But how exactly did Dio launch his attack? We should have landed before him. Unless Dio accelerated his own time or his new Stand ability is very far away, there’s no way to explain the weather forecast and Emporio’s disappearance.” Lu Ye looked around.

“Accelerating time…” Polnareff seemed to remember something at this moment. “Jotaro, look at your watch.”

Upon hearing Polnareff's words, Jotaro raised his left wrist and glanced at the time.

However, upon looking at it, he realized something was wrong.

It is 8:03 PM.

But when he arrived, the sun had just sunk below the horizon and night had just fallen.

At this time of year, it gets dark very quickly; you can usually see the moon by the time the sun sets.

"Time... has moved forward by about two hours?"

"what?"

Everyone was taken aback.

"Time... has moved forward two hours?"

“Yes.” Jotaro checked his watch. “The watch isn’t broken. Time is still flowing, and the second hand is moving at a normal speed.”

"It seems to be true!" Jolyne took out her phone. "It's around eight o'clock now. Time really has sped up!"

“Time reduction…” Polnareff pondered. “No, it’s not quite the same. If time were truly being reduced or skipped, there’s no reason we would still be alive.”

But just then, Lu Ye spoke up: "The weather forecast is still alive!"

"what?"

"You see, now I know why Dio didn't attack us."

Lu Ye pointed to the area around them.

"Although it's not very clear under the cover of night, this faint blackish-red gas... this is the miasma emanating from the 'Mortal Blade,' which can effectively prevent vampires from regenerating. It's also a dangerous substance that Dio cannot touch. It's likely that when we attacked Dio earlier, the weather forecast used air to trap the miasma and bring it around us, which is why Dio didn't attack us immediately."

“But the weather forecast itself has no more miasma…” Jolyne bit her lip, “but since the miasma is still around us, it means the weather forecast is still working, right?!”

“That’s right. Although the miasma has dissipated a lot, just as you said, the weather forecast is still alive.”

A gust of wind suddenly swept through the sky.

Dark clouds surged and rolled toward this side, accompanied by rumbling thunder.

Lu Ye and the others felt a slight tremor in their hearts.

The only thing capable of causing such a sudden change in weather is the weather forecast!

Only he has the ability to freely manipulate the weather.

However, at the same time, a question arose in everyone's mind.

That's why weather forecasters gather dark clouds overhead.

With a thunderous roar, the rain began to fall.

Jotaro was ready to use his time-stop ability, but only rain fell from the dark clouds.

"What is this? Is the weather forecast trying to remind us of something...?"

Just as Jolyne was thinking this,

Josuke, standing nearby, suddenly shouted.

"What...what is this?!!"

Just as Jotaro was about to say something, his brows furrowed instantly.

Because he smelled a strong stench of blood.

It's like turning on a tap that hasn't been used in a long time, and the water that comes out is a mixture of rust and yellowish odor.

Star Platinum appeared behind him, and thanks to his Stand's exceptional eyesight, Jotaro was able to see clearly what the "rain" falling from the sky was.

"It's blood!" Jotaro exclaimed. "It's actually blood!"

Lu Ye and Josuke were both stunned for a moment.

Blood?

But they quickly realized what was happening.

"Dulalalalalalala!!"

Josuke summoned Crazy Diamond and unleashed a barrage of attacks on the ground.

As the rubble splattered, Josuke activated Crazy Diamond's ability, repairing the rubble into a large umbrella that blocked the inexplicable rain of blood.

"What exactly is going on?"

"Is the weather forecast trying to tell us something...?" Josuke looked at Jolyne. "Is it some kind of code?"

“No, I’ve never seen a message conveyed this way before,” Lu Ye said. “If I had to put it in a way, raining blood over our heads is almost like saying, ‘I’m going to kill you all…’”

"hateful!"

"Don't panic, this isn't a weather forecast Stand ability." Jotaro calmly pointed out the problem. "Did you notice? This blood is warm."

After hearing what Jotaro said, Josuke and Jolyne were both startled.

indeed.

Although it fell from the sky, the blood was warmer than the rainwater.

"That is to say..."

“That’s right, it’s probably made from human blood,” Jotaro said. “Look over there at that building, the corpse-like beings have disappeared sometime ago.”

Josuke, Lu Ye, and Jolyne looked towards the former aviation building.

The undead people who were originally affected by the [Weather Forecast: Gale and Rain] ability have disappeared without a trace.

"Wait a minute, Dad, the zombies should turn into snails, and snails don't have blood... but there's so much blood..."

“The weather forecast has been deactivated,” Lu Ye interrupted Xu Lun.

Although it's called an interruption, weather forecasts don't have the ability to stop on their own.

Because once they stop, the undead will surge over again.

"Removing ability" is already a very euphemistic way of saying it.

The chances of the weather forecast still being alive are extremely slim.

The rain is getting heavier.

Lu Ye seemed to realize something, drew the Mortal Blade, extended it outside, and then retracted it.

The Mortal Blade was no longer just covered in rainwater, but also in blood and flesh, which mixed with the rainwater and dripped onto the blade.

“Hey… what are you talking about…” Polnareff was stunned.
