Chapter 179.2
If a brick works, what about a house?
Under Lin Beifans manipulation, an abandoned temple on the outskirts of the capital city suddenly vanished and reappeared thousands of feet up in the sky.
Without any support, it plummeted rapidly.
With a thunderous boom, the sound was enormous, and the area within a radius of 30 miles shook.
The house is fine, but what about a whole mountain?
A thought struck Lin Beifans mind. A small mountain, spanning a thousand zhang in radius, had suddenly vanished from the Hengduan Mountain Range, reappearing in the sky tens of thousands of zhang high.
A mountain of such size, even when its tens of thousands of zhang from the ground, is still immensely large and very conspicuous.
Many people who were working noticed it and couldnt help but exclaim in shock.
Everyone, look up! What is that? Why is there a black disc in the sky?
Its true! What is that?
Could it be a heavenly dog eating the moon? (TLN: Lunar Eclipse.)
Nonsense! The moon isnt even out, how could the heavenly dog eat it?
The heavenly dog eating the sun? (TLN: Solar Eclipse.)
But the sun is on the other side!
So what is that thing? Ive lived for over 30 years and Ive never seen anything like it!
Just then, the black disc disappeared.
Once again, everyone was astonished.
Eh? Why cant we see it anymore?
It appeared for just a moment and then vanished; are my eyes deceiving me?
Surely we cant all be seeing things?
As it turned out, Lin Beifan had taken the mountain back.
Lin Beifan dared not let it fall.
Because if it were to crash down, the destructive power would be too great!
Legend has it that a small asteroid spanning 10 kilometers in diameter struck Earth and wiped out all the dinosaurs.
Although this mountain was not as large as that asteroid, the destruction it would cause would be equally earth-shattering if it were to fall, and it would be impossible for it not to kill tens of millions of people!
So, it was better not to take that risk!
However, this acquisition was a huge surprise for Lin Beifan.
This ability is too overpowered. If I drop a mountain on someone, who could withstand it?
Although he was now a Great Grandmaster, even if he exerted all his strength, he couldnt destroy a large mountain!
But with this new ability, he now possessed the threat of a mountain!
The force of a large mountain falling from the sky is tremendously powerful!
Its even more terrifying than a nuclear warhead!
If a Great Grandmaster were to be hit, do you think they would survive?
What about a Supreme Grandmaster?
They might be powerful, but in the end, they are still human. Being hit by a mountain would definitely be too much to bear; if it didnt kill them, it would at least leave them crippled!
The effect would be absolutely awesome!
However, this move is a double-edged sword; it can only be used on ones own territory. While it destroys the enemy, it also destroys ones own homeland, so it cannot be used recklessly!
After the excitement, Lin Beifan turned his attention to the new feature awarded by Empire Sandboxthe Hand of Weather.
Can it change the domestic weather?
With a thought, Lin Beifan immediately started to operate.
He deployed the Hand of Weather, reaching into the skies of Empire Sandbox, fiddling with the clouds above, and gathering them together to form a large dark cloud.
At this moment, the outside worlds weather was rapidly changing, a dark cloud had formed, blocking the sunlight, and the land darkened.
The common people working were confused.
When did these dark clouds drift over? How did I not notice?
Is it going to rain?
Whats with this weather? It was clear just a moment ago, and now there are dark clouds!
Stop talking and prepare for the rain, take cover!
At that moment, Lin Beifans hand shook, and a torrential rain poured down.
The heck? Why did the rain come down so quickly?
One moment theres a dark cloud when you look up, and the next its raining. Its changing so f*cking fast!
Todays weather is really abnormal!
Stop talking, lets find shelter from the rain first!
Everyone sought shelter from the rain.
Lin Beifan watched the downpour and muttered to himself, Its raining, but without thunder and lightning, it feels like somethings missing!
With a snap of his fingers, thunder and lightning immediately appeared.
Boom
The louder he snapped his fingers, the more ferocious the thunder and lightning became.
And wherever his fingertips pointed, the lightning would strike with uncanny accuracy.
If he rubbed his hands together, it would be like a barrage of thunderbolts from above.
Lin Beifan was having a great time, playing with all sorts of thunder and lightning, while the common people below were scared out of their wits!
Has this lightning gone mad, striking all over the place? Whos ever seen such erratic weather?
Ive lived for so many years and never seen such a messy display of lightning. Its terrifying!
Could it be that the Thunder God and Lightning Goddess are throwing a tantrum?
One person with a loose tongue said, The Thunder God probably wouldnt, but the Lightning Goddess, thats another story! After all, with her age, women tend to easily lose their temper
Just then, a huge clap of thunder resounded in the sky.
Boom
The person was so frightened that they immediately knelt down, trembling and pleading, Lightning Goddess, I misspoke, I was wrong, please dont strike me!
After getting tired of playing with thunder and lightning, Lin Beifan gently waved his hand, and immediately a great wind blew.
The harder he waved, the stronger the wind became, chilling the common people to the bone.
Then, Lin Beifan rubbed his hands together and conjured a tornado, scaring the common people out of their wits.
Thinking it was the wrath of the heavens, they all knelt down and prayed for forgiveness.
After playing around for a long time, the rain started to lessen.
The clouds in the sky are dispersing, it wont rain anymore No worries, lets continue playing!
Lin Beifan moved the water on the ground up to the sky, forming dark clouds, and then carried on with his fun.
After experimenting for a while, Lin Beifan realized that this Hand of Weather was incredibly powerful!
It not only gave him the ability to control wind, rain, thunder, and lightning, but it also allowed him to adjust temperature and climate.
If you wanted a place to be cold, you could make it cold. If you wanted it to be hot, you could make it hot, with temperature differences reaching over 20 degrees Celsius.
The benefits this power brought him were immense!
Apart from enhancing his own strength, it could also boost national power, playing a role in stabilizing the country and calming the people.
You have to understand that in these ancient times with low productivity, farming depended on the weather!
If the weather was good, the years harvest was secured.
If the weather was bad, the grain yield would be affected, leading to famine and even revolutions, causing national turmoil.
But with the Hand of Weather, there was no need to worry about this problem anymore.
Whatever weather he wanted, he had the final say.
Not to mention securing the food supply, increasing the yield by several percentages was no issue!
In the future, my Great Xia will surely enjoy favorable weather, and the nation will be peaceful and the people safe!
