Kapitel 821: Underground Tunnel (Part 1)

A few days later, this would prove to be true. 

Days had passed and it did become hotter and hotter throughout the continent. However, most people were unaware of what was happening and wouldn't be able to notice much difference. It was too gradual. 

If one asked how hot it was today compared to five days ago, they would just say it got a little hotter. 

Of course, this was just an illusion that fortunately every Territory Alterra allied with was aware of. 

In the mountains, in Alterra, there were several simple ongoing underground constructions. They chose to dig the Western faces of the mountain to do this. The streams and tributaries were on the other side so it was better to avoid that area because it'd be much more prone to erosion and flooding. 

They also studied the wind movements and agreed that the Western part of the mountain range received enough wind and precipitation so it wouldn't be dried out, at least not more than other places.
