I am the old, fiery-faced man from the senior department.

"And... there might be villages nearby."

"……trouble."

The clouds within a radius of a hundred miles were gathered together by the eye of the storm, and lightning flashed amidst the spiraling dark clouds.

During the daytime, people in the disaster-stricken area can clearly see the "storm" crashing down from the sky.

The sky is like a dome, covering the vast wilderness.

"Hey, Kal'tsit, you wouldn't risk helping people whose existence is unknown, would you?"

So he asked during the day.

“You need me more.”

"Ah That's good."

Bai Zhou understood what she meant.

This is not her responsibility.

Kal'tsit will do everything in her power to save those she can, but she won't solve the train problem.

Whether to save the mother or the child is not a question for her; she will only save the person closest to her.

Daylight and her own priority are higher than those refugees who may or may not be in the disaster zone. She will not and cannot force Daylight into the dangerous disaster zone.

"But we can't just wait for the natural disaster to pass."

Bai Zhou gazed at the hurricane that had already revealed its form and took a deep breath.

The direction the storm was moving had already encompassed them.

The thin soil beneath our feet is unlikely to be able to support the roots that grow from the Heavenly Fiend and the ravages of natural disasters.

The Celestial Fiend's energy reserves are mostly used to maintain the protective shield, and the "roots" beneath his feet can only extend up to three meters.

It shouldn't be like this, but the protective shield covers a full ten meters, and there's also a main root that needs more Arcane Energy to maintain it.

Without more energy, their fate might be to be swept into the sky by the wind and tumble around.

"coming!"

The outer vortex of the storm was already upon us.

The armor formed by the arcane energy revealed shimmering patterns that then spread to the entire shield.

[Storm Arrives]

Bai Zhou used his bloodline power to condense his own wind to fight against this catastrophe.

When winds collide, there is only one outcome: the weaker wind is swallowed up by the stronger one.

"Not enough! The wind needs to be stronger!"

Even though he has embarked on the path of ascension, Bai Zhou's abilities are still weak at this moment, and he has no magical enhancement from Tian Ji. It would be extremely difficult for him to tear apart a natural disaster on his own.

"The wind is there, but we can't force it."

Knowing that his own winds are no match for the power of heaven and earth, Bai Zhou's insistence on fighting against them, knowing his own weakness, is tantamount to throwing an egg against a rock—a foolish act.

See clearly the direction of this storm.

Then... change your direction!

Since we can't fight it now, let's join it.

The blue wind coalesced into a sharp blade, pressing against the land and slicing through the incoming wind.

The wind, cut through, surged through both sides of the shield, then converged on the other side and continued forward.

They are safe for now.

"Your Highness..."

Looking at the boy who was standing alone against the storm, Kal'tsit could only sigh.

She was too weak.

"Kal'tsit! Can you tell me how much longer this damn thing will last?"

When the call of daylight is uttered, Kal'tsit will respond.

"Yes!"

"Visually estimated: the eye of the storm moved 100 meters in the blink of an eye. Preliminary assessment: the wind speed was 130 kt/s per minute, which is a level 4 gale, equivalent to a level 16 gale."

A string of technical terms came out of Kal'tsit's mouth, followed by a terrifying conclusion.

"Your Highness, we are expected to collide with the eye of the storm in ten seconds!"

"Um……"

The horror of natural disasters lies not only in their destructive power, but also in the Originium that follows and the intense Originium energy radiation afterward.

The Storm-type Originium can be considered the most disgusting of all the natural disasters.

Because the Originium that was born from this natural disaster... can fly.

Especially near the eye of the storm, the Originium flying everywhere... looks like falling space debris.

However, this might be an unexpected bonus for daytime.

"Heavens, prepare for a feast."

The sky full of Originium stones didn't seem like a nuisance during the day; it was a free buffet.

It would be even better if this buffet didn't leave a huge crater.

"Aoneng, delicious food."

A three-meter-tall cluster of Originium shards crashed into the shield, the powerful impact creating large ripples.

But it was then consumed by the overflowing arcane energy.

"Eat faster, you bastard! You can't just wolf it down now, you can waste it."

"Yes."

A large amount of Originium can be converted into Arcane Energy by the Heavenly Fiend, which is then added to the protective shield.

Within five seconds, the second and third layers of protective shields appeared one after another.

Now, they can withstand the bombardment of the Originium cluster near the eye of the storm.

"Put on your full armor, Kal'tsit! Don't show anything!"

The shield can withstand the impact of Originium and greatly reduce the transmission of the aftershocks.

However, even the Heavenly Fiend could not withstand the impact of hundreds of giant source stones.

If a sound wave strong enough travels through an enclosed space, it can indeed pulverize a person.

Kal'tsit, who was prepared, manipulated her arcane clothing, transforming it into a set of armor that resembled the Heavenly Fiend.

"Get ready, the impact is coming!"

The next moment, their vision was obscured by Originium.

"Too much! AoE! Even more AoE!"

Tian Sha ate with exceptional delight.

With more energy, the things that Tian Sha can do also increase.

For example, right now, the ground beneath their feet is already firmly occupied by the "roots" of the Heavenly Fiend a hundred meters below. The protective shield is like a towering tree, which even a storm cannot knock down.

In that case, they should be able to survive this natural disaster.

After the 32nd storm, heavy rain is coming.

"finally!"

The storm left them and roared away into the distance.

But Bai Zhou wasn't worried. Once over that mountain, the young storm would face the combined assault of high mountains and dense forests, and things wouldn't be as smooth sailing as they were on the plains.

Storms are most afraid of high mountains and dense forests.

One storm couldn't get them over, leaving them only to rage helplessly at the mountaintop. The other was too deep; the young storm couldn't handle it and would be swallowed by the dense, dark forest.

Although the storm has passed, the weather shows no signs of improving.

"It's not going to rain heavily again... Ah, it's already raining."

As Bai Zhou climbed out of the pile of Originium, his vision was obscured by the falling rain as soon as he looked up.

"This is really troublesome; the car can't go any further here."

Standing atop the piled-up Originium, gazing at the muddy plains, Bai Zhou pondered how to leave.

The storm whipped up the grasslands of the plains, leaving large tracts of land exposed and stripped of vegetation. After being washed away by the heavy rain, any car that was still in operation would surely have its wheels stuck in the mud.

"Ah, I've got it!"

During the day, an idea suddenly struck him, and he came up with a way to leave.

"Stay away, Kal'tsit."

First, let Kal'tsit take the pack animal out. During the day, grab the side of the cart, lift your arms sharply, and throw it out.

"boom!"

The car crashed into the ground, splashing up a large patch of mud and water.

"Your Highness? Are you going to modify this car?"

After Bai Zhou came out, Kal'tsit led the pack animal to Bai Zhou's side, who was banging on the cart.

"Hmm... I want to build one again."

After this natural disaster, the Celestial Fiend obtained enough arcane energy reserves to build a building ten meters in diameter, so building another car would not be difficult.

However, when using arcane energy to create items, a thorough understanding of the item is required.

For example, if the armor made by Tian Sha has never been exposed to Originium radiation in the air, it would be impossible for it to resist Originium radiation.
