NOVEL WEB Chapter 94 – Leg Hair of the Citizen of Long Bo?
However, Wei Xiao Bei was unable to change anything now. He placed the knife inside his backpack and made a mad rush towards Cui Hu University. Only when he hid behind the walls did he let out a sigh of relief.
The Mist Draconic Horse was too terrifying. Although the Citizen of Long Bo was much more terrifying, it would probably not waste any energy to try and find him with its large body. The Mist Draconic Horse was different. If it just passed by, it was already enough to cause a lot of problems.
White mist rising up from the pit of the giant footprint could be seen even from where he was. Wei Xiao Bei couldn’t help but shiver. He dispelled any thoughts remaining of wanting to go back to check it out.
He would rather check his own bounty. He also took notice that the flesh he had peeled off his arm was gradually staunching. He immediately looked at the black rod like thing that he had acquired with great difficulty.
What is this anyways?
When he tried feeling it, a name appeared in the items on hand section of the status panel.
It was leg hair of the Citizen of Long Bo!
No wonder Wei Xiao Bei felt like he had seen it before. Compared to the countless ten meter long hair on the thick, electric-pole-like leg, it was a lot shorter.
It’s very flexible and very durable!
Wei Xiao Bei picked up the leg hair and moved it like a great spear. He couldn’t help but be filled with happiness.
The leg hair of the Citizen of Long Bo was much better than any broken branch from the Big Tree Spirit.
Wei Xiao Bei held the arm-thick leg hair at one end and found that it was just the right length and size.
The expression ‘you plant a garden and the flowers do not bloom, you poke a stick in the mud and it grows into a tree’ truly matched his current situation.
The only problematic thing was that the pointed end of the leg hair was too soft so he could not use it as a spear head, and it was also too long. As a result, he needed to find an actual spear head and find a way to decrease its length.
After thinking for a while, he began making his move. He found a sharp rock from behind the school gate and chose the best position to cut the leg hair.
Wei Xiao Bei planned to cut off a part of the leg hair, but after 20 minutes of attempting to do so, he gave up. The leg hair was too tough. The sharp rock was not even able to leave a single mark on it.
Next, Wei Xiao Bei thought of burning off part of the leg hair, so he went to get decomposing wood and started a fire.
However, his plan had backfired. After being burned under 300-400 degree flame, the leg hair did not burn off. Instead, its luster increased further.
This had most likely increased the hair’s value, but he could only give up on using it now.
He was temporarily unable to change it into a great spear, but even using it as a rod was also not too bad.
Wei Xiao Bei suddenly thought of the knife that he had.
If it was the sharpness of the knife, Wei Xiao Bei had never seen a knife that sharp before.
Could I use it to cut off the leg hair?
Wei Xiao Bei retrieved that knife in his backpack. The mist on it had already disappeared, with there had been no harm done to the things inside his backpack.
However, evidence of corrosion left on the knife was not few. He used the rock to grind it a bit and the corroded parts fell off. The knife suddenly became incomparably reflective to the point that he could see his own face on it.
This knife seemed to have changed?
Wei Xiao Bei then noticed that a change happened on his status panel.
Item on hand: White Mist Knife (sharp, slightly corrosive property), Citizen of Long Bo’s Leg Hair (tough, flexible)
It was the first time Wei Xiao Bei had seen this kind of description.
Without a doubt, the knife in his hands was the White Mist Knife on the description.
Sharp? Slightly corrosive property? Tough? Flexible?
Wei Xiao Bei thought for a bit and picked up a branch. He used the knife to peel it. The knife had instantly shaved it into a smooth plane. Moreover, black marks were left behind on it.
The black mark was carbon powder. In just one cut, a layer of the branch had started corroding. The strength of the corrosion was not that small at all.
Soon, Wei Xiao Bei used the White Mist Knife to cut the leg hair of the Citizen of Long Bo. The results did not go beyond his expectations. The White Mist Knife was indeed able to leave a mark on the leg hair, but cutting it off would take a long amount of time.
Moreover, cutting it off would not enough. He also needed to polish the cut off point which would take a lot more time.
Wei Xiao Bei decided that for the moment, he had to put away this matter. He placed back the White Mist Dagger on his waist and walked towards the laboratory building while dragging the leg hair.
He did not need to worry about the friction on the leg hair. If the friction was enough to destroy it, Wei Xiao Bei would not have need to take so much time to think of a way to cut it.
The places Wei Xiao Bei passed by were still dusty. The ruined buildings, roads, flower gardens and other places had all accumulated a thick amount of dust.
Creak. Crunch. Before he even reached the building, he could already hear the footsteps of the Zombies.
Without a doubt, this was the sound of the Zombies’ footsteps.
As a result of muscle deterioration, the movements of the Zombies were slow. They could not even raise their feet by more than 15 centimeters, so their footsteps were also very different from a normal person’s, creating the sound of friction between their foot and the floor.
Wei Xiao Bei did not have a decent weapon on hand, so he did not dare simply strut towards them.
Being surrounded by the Zombies, or being ambushed by Lickers was something that Wei Xiao Bei was not willing to encounter.
A group of Zombies were wandering around behind the laboratory building. Their numbers were ten times more than the amount that he had seen before he left.
From his visual estimate, the group of Zombies were at least 500.
This group of Zombies crowded themselves in a small area, making it seem incredibly jam-packed. It was to the point that the Zombies were knocking on each other and falling tn the ground, taking them a long time before being able to get back up.
Wei Xiao Bei walked around the perimeter. It was lucky that he did not find any women, men or Lickers around.
After slightly eliminating his worry, he returned to the entrance of the laboratory building while dragging the leg hair.
The sound created from dragging the leg hair was not loud, but it was enough to catch the attention of a few Zombies.
Seeing the Zombies slowly move towards him, Wei Xiao Bei let out a mischievous laughter and swung the four meter long leg hair.
“Puff! Pop, puff!
The leg hair was very flexible. As he brandished it, he felt that it was similar to a lengthened qimei stick. With just one swing, five of the Zombies at the very front row fell to the ground.
