The City of Terror

Chapter 43 – Mad Smashing

Wei Xiao Bei felt his blood run cold. He did not dare stay there any longer and broke into a run.

The thing that made him rejoice was that the black beetles’ speed was not fast. At the very least they were slower than him.

He only stopped running when he got back to his street.

At this moment, he began to ask himself whether he should leave the street or not.

It was easy to imagine that this street would not be able to stop the black beetles’ onslaught, unless there was some kind of miracle.

After ten minutes, the black beetles had entered his field of view.

Due to the difference in vegetation and the black beetles spreading on all sides, the black beetles that were moving towards the street had thinned out.

The black beetles that were moving in the front acted as a black stream, slowly flowing down.

Wei Xiao Bei thought for a bit and returned to the apartment building. He replaced the pitchfork in his hand with a club and returned to the end of the street.

Ten more meters, five more meters, he stopped moving and smashed the club down on the black beetles.

The club smashed the beetles without much of a sound, squishing them to pieces. Black juice splashed out from their bodies, staining the ground with black dots.

Wei Xiao Bei retreated a few steps and closed his eyes. Soon, he opened his eyes with delight.

There really is an effect!

When he had smashed four black beetles to death, he had gained one evolution point.

He stopped thinking and continued smashing the black beetles.

When he reached the street, he had already killed 200 black beetles, giving him more than 50 evolution points.

Compared to killing five Fishmen, killing 200 black beetles and gaining 50 evolution points was not worth it.

He only needed to use the pitchfork to kill a Fishman in one move, but killing the black beetles needed him to continuously smash the club downwards.

Another problem was that he needed to concentrate hard in order to prevent the black beetles from surrounding him.

These black beetles only provided a few evolution points, but the good thing about them was that there were many of them.

Though if the black beetles climbed up on him, then he would probably die a painful death.

It should be said that he was already grasping for breath at this moment. He had been continuously smashing down for more than 60 times whilst also trying to pay attention to his surroundings and retreat at the right times.

At the time, his mind was far more worn out than his body.

Seeing that the black beetles were close to entering the streets, he prepared to retreat.

This made him incredibly unhappy. If this place was occupied by the black beetles, then it would be very troublesome for him the next time he entered The Dust World.

If he did not want to wake up with a body full of holes and black beetles entering his stomach; he needed to find a safer place to enter The Dust World!

However, who knew where this safe place was?

If such terrifying black beetles could appear from the waters of Lake Cui, other places that he would find might not even necessarily be safe.

Naturally, if he truly wanted to guarantee his safety, the best choice would be to stop coming back and give up any ideas of getting stronger.

In the next moment, Wei Xiao Bei became baffled.

In the Dust World, only half of the street was left, while the rest was a wasteland and straight ahead was Lake Cui. The border between the street and the wasteland was extremely neat, as if it was cut by something.

The black beetles moved like a tide, but when it reached the very edge of the street, they immediately stopped. Not a single black beetle exceeded the edge!

It was like there was an invisible barrier blocking the black beetles’ way.

The black beetles at the back continued to surge forward, and very quickly, the black beetles had climbed up on each other like a rising mountain.

What is going on?

Wei Xiao Bei could not believe what he was seeing.

In the next instant, he unhesitantly raised the club in his hand and smashed towards the piled up black beetles.

First hit! Eleven beetles died! 2.75 evolution points!

Second hit! Nine beetles died! 2.25 evolution points!

Third hit! Ten beetles died! 2.5 evolution points!

......

The black beetles continued to accumulate at the very edge of the street, allowing Wei Xiao Bei to turn more black beetles into meat paste with every hit.

Time went by bit by bit. Wei Xiao Bei looked at his continuously rising evolution points. Even though he was tired, he was incredibly satisfied.

As previously stated, the amount of evolution points the black beetles gave was too small, but being together in their huge amount, they had given Wei Xiao Bei quite a bit of evolution points.

The only troublesome thing was that the black beetles kept increasing, continuing to surge forward. Even if Wei Xiao Bei was able to smash a lot of them to death at the edge of the street, the black beetles just accumulated in another place that he was not paying attention to. Doing this, the black beetles had slowly formed a perimeter wall.

Who knew when this black perimeter wall would crumble down ontop of him.

As a result, his back began to sweat and and he started smashing faster.

While he kept smashing down on the black beetles at the edge of the street, he failed to notice a red clothed, long haired woman standing on top of the roof of one of the small buildings on the other side of the street.

Following her appearance, a strange sound that could not be heard by normal ears travelled through in the air.

The sound echoed causing the temperature of the street to instantly drop.

Wei Xiao Bei could not help sneezing at this. Soon, the black beetles receded back to Lake Cui like a tide.

All of a sudden, Wei Xiao Bei was left alone, baffled at this scene.

What’s going on?

Because he was still worried that the back beetles would come back, he did not immediately respond. He only came back to his senses when the black beetles retreated back to more than ten meters away.

Those retreating black beetles were important evolution points, so he quickly chased after them and smashed towards them with the club in his hand.

However, as soon as he reached the lakeside, his instincts quickly warned him of the danger, stopping him from going anymore forward.

All he could do was watch the densely packed black beetles withdrawing into Lake Cui, disappearing from his sight.
