Webnovel Author In The Apocalypse World-Chapter 419: Floating Sheep

If that were the case, would clothing made from their wool also have invisibility properties?

"Let's go check Pasture No. 4."

Kim Haru knew where it was, so he didn't need anyone to guide him.

He set off in that direction on his own.

After only a few steps, Kang Hose, who had been silently listening, suddenly moved closer and said, "Mr. Kim, I think I might know what happened to the Nimbus Baa Sheep."

"Hm?" Kim Haru was surprised.

"If my guess is correct, they probably flew away."

Kim Haru was momentarily stunned by Kang Hose's words.

Flew away?

Did the Nimbus Baa Sheep have flight capabilities?

That didn't make sense.

The system's description of the Nimbus Baa Sheep hadn't indicated that they were flying creatures.

Other airborne species, like Whirlwind Mule, exhibited clear signs of their abilities early on, but these Nimbus Baa Sheep had never shown anything of the sort.

Before Kim Haru could ask for more details, a speed-type ability user came running over at full speed.

"Mr. Kim, we found the Nimbus Baa Sheep!"

Following the messenger to the edge of the tall grass, Kim Haru spotted something unusual even before reaching the scene.

At the very tips of the tall grass, a large cluster of cotton candy-like fluff had appeared.

It was the missing flock of Nimbus Baa Sheep.

Kim Haru: "..."

So, Nimbus Baa Sheep really could fly.

At this moment, a large flock of Nimbus Baa Sheep was leisurely floating in the air and huddled together in a cluster formed by the Giant Pasture Grass.

If not for their tiny, jet-black beady eyes, they would have been indistinguishable from a cloud.

These Nimbus Baa Sheep didn't seem to realize that they had moved from the ground to the sky and were still trying to nibble on the leaves of the Giant Pasture Grass.

"I remember that when Nimbus Baa Sheep mature, they become incredibly light and can float into the sky at any moment, just like real clouds," Kang Hose scratched his head. "I meant to mention it before, but I forgot."

In other words, these Nimbus Baa Sheep hadn't flown up voluntarily.

No wonder they looked like a bunch of dumb sheep that hadn't processed what was happening.

Kim Haru knew that the mutated creatures of the apocalypse could be strange and bizarre, but this still expanded his understanding once again.

The caretakers, who had been counting the Nimbus Baa Sheep, had now finished.

Every single missing Nimbus Baa Sheep was here—no more, no less.

Everyone breathed a collective sigh of relief.

"Will they come down on their own?" The caretakers who had never dealt with Nimbus Baa Sheep before asked Kang Hose.

Kang Hose searched his memory for the limited information he had on Nimbus Baa Sheep. "We have to tie them with ropes and pull them down."

Just like helium balloons with strings attached.

So, everyone quickly went to find ropes.

Kim Haru continued watching the Nimbus Baa Sheep nibbling at the Giant Pasture Grass mid-air.

These fluffy white creatures had been chewing for ages, yet they hadn't even managed to bite off the outer skin of the grass.

Still, they remained persistent, smacking their lips without the slightest intention of stopping.

Kim Haru was worried that the Giant Pasture Grass might be upset.

He reached out to touch it, but before he could even utter a word of reassurance, he sensed a wave of joy emanating from the Giant Pasture Grass.

Besides joy, there was also a sense of accomplishment.

The Giant Pasture Grass knew that all the humans moving around on its territory were subordinates of the person it liked the most.

The animals running around also belonged to this human.

So, when it noticed that human's belongings seemed to be floating away into the sky, it immediately stretched out its broad leaves and caught them all.

Sure enough, not long after, that human came looking for them.

The Giant Pasture Grass felt incredibly proud of itself!

As expected, Kim Haru praised the Giant Pasture Grass generously, just as it had hoped.

The grass swayed its head in delight.

Even though others couldn't communicate with it, they could still tell from its movements just how happy it was.

While Kim Haru was chatting with the Giant Pasture Grass, the others had already retrieved the ropes.

With the help of the Giant Pasture Grass, everyone quickly tied a rope to each Nimbus Baa Sheep.

The fluffy white Nimbus Baa Sheep floated mid-air, drifting gently.

However, with the ropes restraining them, they couldn't drift too far—like a bunch of kites.

Some children, who had come over out of curiosity, instantly became excited when they saw this scene.

It looked like so much fun—they wanted to fly them like kites.

Ever since the apocalypse, the children had barely had any entertainment.

There was no way they could resist such a temptation, so they all gathered around the Nimbus Baa Sheep caretakers, eagerly offering to hold the strings.

Not just the children—even some of the adults around them were starting to feel a little tempted by the sight of the floating, living kites.

The Nimbus Baa Sheep, as carefree as ever, remained completely unfazed by their current predicament.

They let the humans pull them in any direction—so long as there was grass to eat, they were happy.

Yes, while tying the ropes, everyone had made sure to secure a bunch of pasture grass onto each one, greatly soothing the Nimbus Baa Sheep's mood.

Since Kim Haru showed no signs of stopping them, the caretakers handed out one or two Nimbus Baa Sheep to each person who wanted to "fly" them.

Even Kang Hose was holding one.

Right now, he was surrounded by Luna and Cresent—the cat and dog were both curiously observing the floating sheep.

One of the caretakers hesitated, glancing at Kim Haru uncertainly.

Should they offer Mr. Kim a Nimbus Baa Sheep to hold as well?

Kim Haru didn't take one.
