Lu Ban had just entered his name and checked a few news reports when a rumble suddenly echoed across the sky.
He looked up. It had only just become light, and the sky was a clear blue.
"What was that sound?"
Xiya looked slightly confused. She stood up and glanced around, but soon fixed her gaze on one end of the road.
Lu Ban followed Xiya's gaze. At the end of the street that ran straight across the island, where they could see all the way to the horizon, dark clouds loomed and Thunder gathered. A mass of clouds large enough to blot out the sky was surging toward them.
Within just a few minutes, the dark clouds had expanded into an unmistakable natural disaster.
"A typhoon?"
Lu Ban found it unbelievable. The island was located at a latitude near the equator, and the equator was famously a calm belt. Areas near the equator did not produce typhoons.
Therefore, the storm appearing here was almost certainly not an ordinary storm.

The tablet also displayed a notification. Lu Ban tapped it open and discovered that the local meteorological bureau had issued an emergency notice. A typhoon was forming over the ocean south of the island, and ships at sea were urged to return to port as soon as possible and prepare against the wind. At the same time, the airport announced that all flights had been temporarily canceled.
"How could there be a typhoon here?"
Xiya found it hard to believe. She glanced at Amber.
"Could this also have been caused by that mastermind?"
"I don't know, but it's very possible."
Amber shook her head as she spoke. She looked toward the place where the storm was gathering and murmured to herself,
"Is He trying to eliminate unstable existences?"
