The City of Terror

Chapter 110 – Scorpion Meat Smells Bad    The scorpion’s tail was poisonous, but the meat under the shell was not. The only problem it had was the smell.

But compared to the other food inside The Dust World, it was not bad at all.

If Wei Xiao Bei had not previously used his great spear to the point where he made the Giant Black Scorpion meat inedible, he would have already collected their meat.

Although the Giant Black Scorpion looked big, its meat was not that much, only found under the shell and inside its legs.

The scorpion was 1.5 meters long, so the amount of meat that could be obtained from it was around 1 kg.

This, however, was normal, as scorpions were only at most 5 kg in weight. Being able to obtain 1kg of meat was already not bad.

After shoving the scorpion meat inside a plastic bag and into his backpack, Wei Xiao Bei dusted his hands off and returned back the White Mist Dagger to his wait.

He once again advanced forward by about 20 meters and another protrusion seemed to have received the vibrations and started moving towards Wei Xiao Bei.

After killing a Giant Black Scorpion with his bare hands, Wei Xiao Bei gained a bit of experience. Immediately, he stopped moving and waited for the scorpion to pounce out from the sand. When it came out, Wei Xiao Bei made a sudden maneuver to get behind the scorpion, grabbed onto its tail, and crushed it.

Once a scorpion lost their tail, the threat that they amounted against Wei Xiao Bei would notably decrease.

Wei Xiao Bei did not stop there. He stamped his foot on the sand and borrowed the momentum to jump.

Thousand Kilogram Fall!

With his left foot in front, he descended with high speed and fell on the back shell of the scorpion with the impact of a heavy steel pillar.

This kick had instantly shattered the back shell into pieces.

At this moment, the scorpion still struggled, but it was not far from death.

Wei Xiao Bei kicked off its pincers and once again took out the White Mist Dagger to dissect it.

In just a few minutes, he had gained another half a kilogram of scorpion meat.

This time, he had used too much leg strength, causing the meat to be wasted.

Huang Da Jun stood on top of the sand dune and looked at Wei Xiao Bei kill the different scorpions using a range of methods.

Facing such strong enemies, Huang Da Jun felt powerless. He roughly guessed that this place was another world and that in this world, strength far outweighed the advantage of knowledge.

Huang Da Jun was still a graduate from a famous university. Even if he was filled with envy in his heart, he was not an idiot.

At least, for this period of time, he could only rely on Wei Xiao Bei, his rival in love, to survive in this world.

After recognizing this point, it was easy to imagine how unpleasant Huang Da Jun felt.

Naturally, Wei Xiao Bei did not care about his thoughts at all.

After killing three more Giant Black Scorpions, Wei Xiao Bei returned back to the top of the sand dune. Not waiting for Huang Da Jun to come back to focus, he just chopped towards his neck.

Huang Da Jun’s vision immediately darkened and his body limply fell to the ground, fainting from the attack.

Wei Xiao Bei made a horse stance and maintained it on the spot.

Then, he concentrated into his Dantian.

For a martial artist that had reached a certain level, Qi was something that would be continuously produced by the body, but by being in a stance, that was when Qi would be produced the most.

At this moment of time, the Qi inside his Dantian was motionless. However, when Wei Xiao Bei placed his thoughts on it, it began to move and merge with the uncontrollable Qi inside his body.

Wei Xiao Bei did not maintain his stance for long, and after only about 20 minutes, he relaxed himself.

The Qi inside his Dantian had already increased to a certain degree.

The benefits of entering a stance, however, was not only this. Wei Xiao Bei had also felt a lot more energized; the fatigue that accumulated over his previous fights had substantially decreased.

Huang Da Jun, who was lying down on the sand dune beside him, had still not woken up.

Wei Xiao Bei did not pay anymore attention to him, and once again jumped down from the sand dune and followed his previous pattern of luring and killing the hidden scorpions one by one.

Five more scorpions died in different ways under Wei Xiao Bei’s hand. At the same time, the amount of scorpion meat inside his backpack increased by 5 kg.

However, in the next moment, Wei Xiao Bei could no longer be as relaxed.

The closer he got to the fiery red mountain range, the more the protrusions increased. Even if he wanted to attract the scorpions one by one, it had become impossible to do it anymore.

When the sand blasted open, there were now two scorpions that surrounded him and pounced.

Wei Xiao Bei slightly wrinkled his brows but charged them head-on with a huge stride, escaping between the two scorpions.

This was one of the things the Scorpions could not do.

Whether it was normal scorpions or these Giant Black Scorpions, both of them lacked the innate ability of jumping.

They could only move by crawling on the ground while jumping was an impossible thing for them.

As a result, before they could even turn around to find Wei Xiao Bei, their tails had been crushed, Wei Xiao Bei then knocked them against each other and killed them with a series of punches and kicks.

Wei Xiao Bei guessed that their lack of jumping ability was the reason why they were only 50 evolution points, while a Fishman Guard was worth 60 evolution points.

When Wei Xiao Bei finally passed through the valley, it had roughly been about an hour.

But this amount of time was certainly not a waste. By the time he reached the end of the valley, his evolution points had swelled up to 1101 evolution points.

However, Wei Xiao Bei’s gains were not just the evolution points.

Wei Xiao Bei did not forget about Huang Da Jun. Returning back to his location, Huang Da Jun had just started to wake up.

“Follow me.”

Wei Xiao Bei coldly glanced at Huang Da Jun and moved forward. Huang Da Jun did not know how to feel about the situation he was in. For one, he was puzzled why Wei Xiao Bei would knock him unconscious for no reason.

However, after following Wei Xiao Bei for a certain distance, he saw the opened corpses of the Giant Black Scorpions. His head pulled back when he saw the scene as he followed behind Wei Xiao Bei in a well-behaved fashion.

After passing through the valley, they were not far from the fiery red mountain range.

The closer they got to the mountain range, the hotter the surface temperature of the sand became. Wei Xiao Bei could somewhat tell that the surface temperature had already exceeded 50 degrees.

This meant that the temperature of the air around them was close to 40 degrees.

Huang Da Jun followed behind Wei Xiao Bei, dripping sweat wherever he went. He felt so hot and parched it was as if he was about to breathe his last.

As a small leader for a multinational corporation, Huang Da Jun had enjoyed the benefit of office air conditioning. Even his apartment had an installed air conditioner.
