The boss of a foreign organization called the police, claiming that he was defrauded by me

"How come my clothes are soaked after just being blown by the wind? No... there must be something fishy going on. We need to get back as soon as possible."

"I've never encountered a situation where I can't stay on the sea for a long time. Perhaps something unexpected will happen next."

"For our safety, I think we should return to land as soon as possible."

The fisherman glanced cautiously at his son behind him and urged him on. This incident had made him somewhat nervous.

Unbeknownst to them, the strange phenomenon on the sea was actually Yang Xia practicing operating the weather controller repeatedly.

To master this skill as quickly as possible, he practiced countless times and spent an unknown amount of time.

Finally, with Yang Xia's persistence, he completed a series of basic training exercises, including those on air humidity and air velocity.

With his intelligence and quick comprehension, Yang Xia mastered these skills in the shortest possible time.

That's why the fishermen were puzzled. Yang Xia said with a look of surprise, "That's great! It seems my progress is pretty good."

"I've practiced at least 20% of it, and at this rate, I'll be able to master it completely soon."

Just as Yang Xia was feeling overjoyed, Meng Yu came to report the situation.

Yang Xia reluctantly stopped what he was doing and looked up at Meng Yu, who had a serious expression on his face.

He slowly opened his mouth and asked, "What's wrong... Is there something you need to report to me?"

Meng Yu said to Yang Xia with a serious expression, "Your Majesty... we have discovered some unpleasant circumstances, so we rushed here to report to you."

Yang Xia frowned and looked at Meng Yu, asking, "What is it? Speak..."

Meng Yu took a deep breath and looked at Yang Xia, saying, "We have discovered a large number of ships in the waters surrounding the Atlan Empire."

"These ships are scattered throughout the sea, most likely preparing to ambush a fleet from China."

"Therefore...we have come to report to Your Majesty, hoping that Your Majesty can make preparations and plans as soon as possible."

Upon hearing Meng Yu's report, Yang Xia frowned and said, "I already know about this. Keep a close watch on their every move."

"Remember... do not take any action for now. Report the situation over there to me regularly and wait for my orders before taking any action."

"You absolutely must not act on your own, do you hear me?"

Upon hearing Yang Xia's instructions, Meng Yu slowly nodded and said, "Yes... We will follow Your Majesty's orders and will not act rashly."

"However, Your Majesty, please find a solution as soon as possible, otherwise I fear it will be too late."

The system's prompts further solidified Yang Xia's determination to master the weather controller in a short period of time.
Logically speaking, proficiency with weather controllers should be gradually accumulated through continuous operation and in-depth exploration.

However, the current proficiency of the weather controller is extremely low. Even if it were applied to the waters surrounding the Atlan Empire, it could only create some minor waves at most, and would not pose any substantial threat to the warships that were poised to intercept the Chinese team.

Since that's the case, why not just find any sea area and conduct indiscriminate training, striving to raise proficiency to a whole new level in the shortest possible time?

Once you've mastered the skill enough to unleash its full power, then practice on the warships of the Atlantean Empire and the other two countries.

Yang Xia began to try to manipulate the humidity in the air, and he slowly doubled the humidity.

As the humidity level in the air gradually changed, Yang Xia's expression grew increasingly serious.

[Ding dong, congratulations host for completing the basic operation of the weather controller, proficiency increased by 5%]

The system's prompt immediately piqued Yang Xia's interest.

If such a high level of proficiency can be achieved by simply manipulating one value, then wouldn't it be easy to raise the proficiency to 100%?
After controlling the humidity, Yang Xia then tried to lower the temperature. After some manipulation, ice crystals indeed began to condense in the air.

The temperature continued to drop, and even on the nearby sea surface, tiny ice crystals began to quietly appear, drifting with the current...

"This is quite interesting; it doesn't seem too difficult."

Upon seeing this, Yang Xia couldn't help but smile with delight.

Once he can master the weather controller, things will be much easier.

Just then, Yang Xia received another notification from the system.

[Ding dong, congratulations host, you have increased your weather controller proficiency to 30%.]

[However, the host has reached the maximum opportunity to improve proficiency today and cannot continue to improve...]

Seeing the system notification that his weather controller proficiency had increased to 30%, Yang Xia felt somewhat disappointed. He had wanted to continue practicing, but unexpectedly, he couldn't improve any further. However, Yang Xia quickly adjusted his mindset, feeling that this was already quite good.

He sighed, resigned to temporarily putting the weather controller issue aside...

Then he turned his attention to Island X, wanting to find out what the situation was like there.

"Meng Yu... come here for a moment, I have something to ask you." Yang Xia looked outside and shouted loudly.

Hearing Yang Xia's call, Meng Yu strode in.

He said respectfully, "Your Majesty... what are your orders?"

Yang Xia looked up at Meng Yu and asked in a calm tone, "I just want to know, have you completed the overall monitoring and control of X Island?"

"Tell me the details, I need to know what's going on on X Island."

Upon hearing Yang Xia's question, Meng Yu looked up at him and quickly replied, "Your Majesty... we have already begun deployment and monitoring without stopping."

"However, the interior of the cave has not yet been explored; only some monitoring and control measures have been completed on the exterior..."

"However, we will finish soon. Please be patient, Your Majesty, and give us some more time."

After listening to Meng Yu's explanation, Yang Xia carefully considered the situation and felt that they could not delay any longer.

Perhaps everyone's abilities are limited, Yang Xia began to consider his next steps.

After a while, he looked up at Meng Yu and said, "Well then... you guys get ready first, I need to go there in person."

"I'll go and see for myself if I can find anything unusual. This matter is very important to us, and we must not be careless."

Meng Yu was slightly taken aback when he heard Yang Xia's idea. He looked up at Yang Xia and said, "Your Majesty... this is not appropriate."

"What should we do if you go to Island X and something happens?"

"The situation is so complicated now, you must not act rashly, otherwise the whole situation will become unstable."

Yang Xia waved his hand and looked at Meng Yu, saying, "It's alright... Just do as I say. I have to go there myself."

"You don't need to persuade me anymore; I'm already prepared." Meng Yu was unable to stop Yang Xia's actions and could only accompany him to X Island.
Yang Xia and Meng Yu, along with dozens of imperial guards, returned to the vicinity of the cave.

Based on his previous experience, Meng Yu cautiously pointed to the cave ahead and briefly explained to Yang Xia, "Your Majesty... the situation inside this cave is extremely complicated. We have seen a white-haired giant bear going in and out."

"Moreover, that white-haired giant bear is quite powerful, so we have never dared to approach the cave."

"Therefore, we cannot explore the interior of the cave, but we have a basic understanding of the surrounding area."

"This cave is sure to be full of dangers. Your Majesty must not enter or leave carelessly, lest an accident occur."

Yang Xia listened attentively to Meng Yu's account and learned that they had a fairly good grasp of the outer perimeter of the cave, but knew nothing about the interior. So, he started walking, gradually approaching the cave.

Seeing this, Meng Yu became very nervous and immediately blocked Yang Xia's way, asking anxiously, "Your Majesty... what do you want to do? That cave is really dangerous, you can't go there."

"What if you enter the cave and are attacked by a giant white bear? It's too dangerous."

Seeing Meng Yu's nervousness, Yang Xia smiled slightly, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "It's alright... what's there to be afraid of?"

"As the saying goes, nothing ventured, nothing gained. How can we know what's inside if we don't go in and see for ourselves?"

"I have my own plans, so please don't stop me. I know what to do."

Yang Xia remained calm, having made up his mind to enter the cave and find out what was going on. Meng Yu's obstruction had no effect on him.

After all, the system had assigned him the task of exploring the secrets of this cave. Although he might not be able to complete the exploration in one go in a short time, he had to do it himself.

"I want to see what secrets this cave holds that even you have to dissuade me. I suppose there must be something else out there inside."

Yang Xia narrowed his eyes, casting his gaze upon the deep cave, a faint smile playing on his lips.

"Your Majesty, please reconsider your actions. This place is truly not safe. If we rashly enter, we may face danger! Even if we wish to rescue you, the limited space may prevent us from doing so!"

Meng Yu looked helpless, as if he wanted to persuade Yang Xia not to take the risk so easily.

Yang Xia turned to Meng Yu and instructed, "Here's what we'll do... you and the other Imperial Guards will keep watch around here."

"I'll go in and take a look myself. If anything happens, I'll contact you immediately."

Meng Yu looked at Yang Xia with a helpless expression and said, "Alright then, Your Majesty must be careful."

"We are ready to obey your orders at any time. I will lead the Imperial Guard to guard this place and will not leave for a moment."

Yang Xia nodded to Meng Yu, then turned and walked into the cave.

When Yang Xia stepped into the cave, he found it to be extremely deep and dark.

Stone steps and a circular stone platform came into view.

Looking at these things, Yang Xia muttered to himself, "It seems... if my guess is correct, this place may have once been home to some kind of civilization."

"These things were left over from that time, and they are so well preserved that there is no damage whatsoever."

"If we hadn't gone into this cave, we wouldn't have discovered all of this. It seems that the decision to enter this cave was the right one."

As he spoke, Yang Xia began to explore the surroundings, carefully checking to see if he could find any clues.

Just then, Yang Xia discovered a dusty wooden box behind the stone platform.

"Huh... what's that? How come there's a dusty wooden box here?"

"Let's go take a look first. Maybe there's some secret hidden in this wooden box."

"Only by opening it and seeing what's inside will we know."

Yang Xia walked forward curiously and picked up the dusty wooden box.

Just as Yang Xia was about to open it, a white light suddenly rushed towards him.

Yang Xia dodged hastily with his agile skills, but when he looked closely, he was surprised to find a giant white bear that had appeared behind him at some unknown time.

The white-haired giant bear was staring at him intently, seemingly extremely displeased with his earlier behavior.

Its eyes were also fixed on the wooden box in Yang Xia's hand, which made Yang Xia even more curious and also quickly became alert.

Upon seeing the giant white bear that had suddenly appeared before him, Yang Xia instantly recalled what Meng Yu had told him earlier.
He immediately realized that the white-furred giant bear's attack power was not to be underestimated. The astute Yang Xia naturally would not choose to fight it head-on.

He looked down at the wooden box in his hand, and his intuition told him that this wooden box might be of great significance.

Yang Xia smiled, his brows furrowing slightly as he stared at the white-furred giant bear in front of him and said, "Hey, good heavens... you dare to block my way."

"That depends on whether you have the ability. I'm determined to get this wooden box today."

With that, Yang Xia, carrying the wooden box, intended to return the way he came. However, to his surprise,
At this moment, another giant white bear, exactly the same as the previous one, appeared and blocked Yang Xia's retreat.

Seeing that there were giant white bears in front and behind him, and that he was surrounded by them, Yang Xia's expression became serious.

But he still held the wooden box tightly in his arms, showing no intention of letting go.

Yang Xia eyed the white-furred giant bear with wary eyes, pondering a way to deal with it.

It seems that these white-haired giant bears have already regarded this cave as their territory, which is why they see Yang Xia and his companions as the greatest threat.

The white-haired giant bear began circling Yang Xia incessantly, its dark eyes glancing occasionally at the wooden box in Yang Xia's arms.

Yang Xia was aware of his current situation, but whether the white-haired giant bears would let him go if he handed the wooden box over so easily was still unknown.

Moreover, the system originally assigned him the task of exploring this cave, and this wooden box may very well contain a crucial secret, which is also part of the system's mission.

If he didn't resist and simply handed the wooden box over to the white-haired giant bear, Yang Xia would surely regret it when he returned. Yang Xia was never one to hesitate, and he had already made up his mind.

However, Yang Xia remained calm and composed, showing no fear on his face.

Just then, Yang Xia opened the simulator system and calmly redeemed two Power Pills from the store.

After swallowing the power pill, a joyful smile appeared on Yang Xia's face. Instantly, he felt his whole body filled with strength, and dealing with the two white-furred giant bears in front of him was no longer a problem.

Yang Xia stretched his limbs, holding the wooden box in one hand, and slowly approached the white-haired giant bear in front of him.

Seeing that Yang Xia intended to attack, the white-haired giant bear roared and charged at him. Yang Xia swung his right hand and easily grabbed the giant bear's tail.

"Hahaha..." (End of Chapter)
