Chapter 162 - Green Dwarf Zhuang Zhuang



Chapter 162 – Green Dwarf Zhuang Zhuang

Zhu Xin Yi’s enemies were five Green Dwarfs that had cooperated with each other. Among them, there was one that looked more robust than the others.

Xiao Chou had been sent to retreat by two of the Green Dwarfs. On the other hand, when Zhu Xin Yi had just killed two of them, the robust Green Dwarf had slashed her thigh.

This gash made Zhu Xin Yi believe that she was going to die, but in the end, the robust Green Dwarf had been affected by her charm control. At that time, the mirror was in her pocket and blocked the slash. In the end, the mirror became like that.

When Zhu Xin Yi touched the mirror, she understood its use.

At this time, Zhu Xin Yi’s fights became easier, and the number of Green Dwarfs under her charm control increased.

As long as they encountered a Green Dwarf, the Green Dwarfs under her control swarmed around it. Zhu Xin Yi did not even have to make a move as the battle ended quickly.

It was easy to imagine the benefits that she had gained.

Wei Xiao Bei nodded his head and smiled, “Your ability is truly not bad.”

Wei Xiao Bei’s sincere smile made had uplifted Zhu Xin Yi’s mood.

From this moment on, Wei Xiao Bei would treat Zhu Xin Yi as a true friend. As the very least, he would not need to worry about something bad happening to her at a crucial moment.

This was the important part. For Wei Xiao Bei, a knife from the back was much more dangerous than an enemy from the front.

“You should be hungry right now? Go pick up a few pieces of firewood.”

After saying that, Wei Xiao Bei could hear the growling sounds coming from Zhu Xin Yi’s stomach.

This was natural. It was understandable for any human to easily feel hungry as their status increased.

It was not that Zhu Xin Yi was a glutton.

Hearing Wei Xiao Bei’s command, Zhu Xin Yi quickly nodded her head. While her face was still blushing, she whistled.

Immediately, the patrolling and combative Green Dwarfs ran over.

Wei Xiao Bei was speechless as he counted the Green Dwarfs.

There were 24 Green Dwarfs in total. And three of them were Elite Green Dwarfs.

Wei XIao Bei inspected an Elite Green Dwarf’s status.

……

Without a doubt, this Green Dwarf was an elite among Green Dwarfs. Its attribute values were also within Wei Xiao Bei’s expectations. The only thing that had surprised Wei Xiao Bei was the flee skill, a skill created from constant fleeing.

Wei Xiao Bei felt that this skill was not bad at all as it could help preserve their lives.

As for the name Zhuang Zhuang, it was without a doubt named by Zhu Xin Yi.

However, when Wei Xiao Bei had inspected Zhuang Zhuang, Zhuang Zhuang became angry and violently shouted. From the looks of it, being inspected by status appraisal was unpleasant for the monsters.

These monsters’ natures were single-minded, but they were quite extreme. If you provoked them, they would immediately get angry.

Naturally, Wei Xiao Bei already anticipated this. The charmed monsters should roughly understand that he was in the same group as their master, otherwise, they would have already bared their fangs at him.

Next, Wei Xiao Bei cut open the Shangfu while envying Zhu Xin Yi’s charm control ability.

Following Zhu Xin Yi’s orders, the gathered Green Dwarfs immediately dispersed and ran everywhere.

They would then pick up withered branches, dry grass, and even dried feces wherever they passed. When they could not hold them anymore, they would return back and pile the things up.

Compared to humans, the Green Dwarfs had some kind of innate ability in picking things up.

Wei Xiao Bei quickly dissected the Shangfu into pieces as the firewood around the place had increased to more than ten piles.

The next task was to light up the fire.

Compared to how he previously drilled wood to make fire, creating fire was now much more convenient.

He grabbed some dry grass and ignited them with the blue electric arc. In an instant, the grass burned up, and he threw them into the pile.

Wei Xiao Bei then skewered the chicken meat and started rotating them on top of the bonfire. The fragrance of meat immediately made the Green Dwarfs treat Wei XIao Bei better.

The Green Dwarfs appeared as if they had never smelled such a thick scent of meat. When they sniffed it, they immediately drooled a waterfall.

Wei Xiao Bei looked at the Green Dwarfs that were staring at the chicken meat. He was worried that they would not be able to endure and jump into the flames to get the food. As a result, he told Zhu Xin Yi who was helping him, “Give them the Shangfu’s offals.”

“But the offals are dirty.”

Zhu Xin Yi nauseatingly spoke. However, she immediately knew that she was wrong and obediently followed the orders to give the Green Dwarfs the offals.

The Green Dwarfs needed food, or they would starve to death.

This was not a game where monsters that were charmed and tamed would not need to eat or drink!

The Green Dwarfs under Zhu Xin Yi’s control would get hungry.

However, there was one advantage to them and that was that they could find food locally if they got hungry.

Naturally, if the owner could give them enough food and decreased the amount of time they searched for food, the owner could increase their combat time. The greatest benefit to the owner was the quick increase in gains or increase in attribute values.

The Green Dwarfs looked at the roasted meat on the fire and drooled, but in the end, they reluctantly parted their view and quickly took the Shangfu’s offals.

The amount of roasted meat that could be obtained from a single Shangfu was around 15 kilograms.

However, this was enough for Wei Xiao Bei and Zhu Xin Yi.

After filling up their bellies, Wei Xiao Bei and Zhu Xin Yi became spirited again.

In reality, the amount of time they had stayed in The Dust World was almost close to five hours. According to convention, it was almost time for them to leave.

However, after eating the Shangfu meat, their minds became clearer. This meant that the amount of time they could stay in The Dust World had increased a bit.

After putting away their things, Wei Xiao Bei told Zhu Xin Yi  some of his plans. He prepared to go to Cui Hu University to find a place to hide the food and water.

However, Zhu Xin Yi was not willing to stay there alone. As a result, the two of them walked together while the 24 Green Dwarfs followed behind them. Every time they encountered a Green Dwarf on the way, they would surround it and kill it.

After getting rid of the inconvenience that was the Shangfu’s corpse, Wei Xiao Bei’s gait became better. He would even run ahead and kick Green Dwarfs that were charging at him.

The distance from the hole to Cui Hu University had increased.

For Wei Xiao Bei, this distance was not long but for Zhu Xin Yi, it was a laborious task.

Luckily, Zhu Xin Yi was able to receive benefits from the Green Dwarfs killing their brethren and recovered a bit.

Additionally, Wei Xiao Bei would display his empathy and stop to rest from time to time. He would then hunt some Green Dwarfs to earn quite more evolution points.

After around an hour, Wei Xiao Bie and Zhu Xin Yi made it to Cui Hu University’s gate.

“This is Cui Hu University??”

Zhu Xin Yi looked at the tottering sign with puzzlement.

“That’s right. This is Cui Hu University. And, I am from Cui Hu City.”

At this point, Wei Xiao Bei did not hide this information anymore and immediately explained a few things to her.

He also told her things that she needed to watch out for in The Dust World as well as how to enter and how to leave it.

Zhu Xin Yi obediently listened. She did not interrupt him until he finished speaking. Zhu Xin Yi asked, “Brother Wei, I am from Hangzhou University. The distance from there to here should be more 2000 kilometers in reality? How could I have appeared here?”

In reality, Wei Xiao Bei had been thinking about this ever since he found out that Zhu Xin Yi came to The Dust World from Hangzhou University’s student dormitory.

However, Wei Xiao Bei was unable to come up with an answer for this no matter how much he thought about it.

“I also don’t know. The group that you came with also had people from different places, and not one of them was from Cui Hu City.”

Wei Xiao Bei explained while wrinkling his brows. The accent of people from Cui Hu City was a bit special. Wei Xiao Bei himself was also an outsider so he could tell if people came from Cui Hu City.

“Is that so?”

Zhu Xin Yi wrinkled her delicate brows and thought about it as well.

However, it goes without saying that she could come up with nothing.

In terms of reasoning, Wei Xiao Bei and Zhu Xin Yi were neither Conan nor Sherlock Holmes.

The rules of The Dust World were vague. Who knew if there was even any.

What made Wei Xiao Bei puzzled was that when he approached the laboratory building, there were no Zombies on the lawn behind the building.

All traces of the Zombies that wandered around behind the building had disappeared.

Could it be that they had moved?

Wei Xiao Bei frowned. The disappearance of the Zombies gave him a bad premonition. However, his early warning ability did not alarm him, so the effects of this should not be that much.
