Suddenly, a startling clap of thunder sounded.
Boom, boom, boom...
Heaven and earth shook, shattering the silence of the night.
Accompanied by lightning, it illuminated the entire world with blinding brightness.
The tall trees on the mountain cast shadows of their peculiar shapes, which seemed especially sinister and terrifying in this environment.
Xu Fan and Cui Dong hid beneath the Descending Dragon Tower. When the lightning flashed, they were cloaked in the shadows, as if hiding within them.
Boom, boom, boom... The thunder rolled, the rain pouring down harder and harder.
This night's downpour would be one of the heaviest Zhonghai had seen in years.
The weather forecast had already issued a weather warning, a red alert at that, reminding the public to pay special attention and to avoid going out unnecessarily.
Red is the highest level of weather warning, and it could even lead to disasters.
This illustrates just how heavy the rain was falling tonight.
