’Weapon’ option was also a new effect of the ’Sky’ trait for Level 2 Sanctuary City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Level 1 Sanctuary City ’Sky’ trait’s effect was the ’shield’.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Which is the current energy shield wrapped around the outside of Dawn City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It blocks the fierce wind generated when Dawn City flies, and also provides incredibly strong stability for the entire city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This stability ensures that even if Yu Jin suddenly ’accelerates’ Dawn City, the subordinates inside won’t feel any shaking or stumble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were many more buttons on the control panel, but they were greyed out, and even their text was unreadable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Obviously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlocking them requires a higher Sanctuary City level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Exhale——\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Jin let out a
