The City of Terror - Chapter 12

Chapter 12 – Various Attacks, Attribute Growth

After being sent backwards, triangle eyes fell down to the ground. His body spasmed as blood flowed from his nose, creating a frightening scene.

Perhaps because these hooligans were too used to being tyrants, the remaining lackeys just stared blankly after meeting resistance for the first time in a while.

However, the two hooligans were not inexperienced in fighting. Wei Xiao Bei once again sent a punch towards green hair, striking him down. During that moment, red hair moved to thrust the broken beer bottle towards Wei Xiao Bei’s underarm. If the sharp edge of the broken beer bottle pierced through his underarm, it probably would not have taken long before he would bleed to death.

I’m going all out!

When this thought appeared in Wei Xiao Bei’s mind, he felt an electric current surge up from within his body. His muscle’s power and his body’s flexibility increased, and frantically, he twisted his body, barely dodging the broken bottle!

Pow!

Counterattack! Wei Xiao Bei’s left fist hit the red hair’s ear. Red hair only felt a wave of dizziness before weakly falling down. He let go of the broken bottle, breaking it to pieces as it landed on the ground.

12 points in muscle, adding on the 10 points in sturdiness, then dividing it by 2, gave the result of 11 points in strength.

Using his 11 points strength to attack these hooligans’ vitals was enough to thoroughly eliminate their fighting strength.

Wei Xiao Bei was publicly recognized as a good-natured person, but after entering and returning from the Dust World, the succession of changes in his body had stifled his psyche.

The three hooligans’ arrogance had turned the built-up feeling deep inside Wei Xiao Bei’s heart into rage.

The anger in his heart had dispersed a bit after knocking down the hooligans, but it was not enough.

Didn’t people from ancient times have a word for this?

The victor should chase the cornered enemy, do not be like the warlord!

(Explanation: In chinese history there was a warlord who let go of his enemy only to be backstabbed by the same enemy in the end. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xiang_Yu)

These hooligans were the enemy. If they did not receive enough pain, they might find trouble with him in the future.

Even if Wei Xiao Bei reported this to the police, it would be impossible for the local police station to protect him 24/7.

Wei Xiao Bei grabbed triangle eye’s arm and smashed it on the floor. With a loud crack, the hooligan’s bone broke.

Wei Xiao Bei followed the set pattern and did the same thing to the other hooligans.

A bone fracture would probably need them at least a hundred days to recuperate.

Wei Xiao Bei was confident that if these three hooligans came to find him after a hundred days, he would not need to be worried about anything.

Before leaving, he also did not forget to search through their wallets.

Although the three of them looked sloppy, the money in their wallets was not a small amount. Wei Xiao Bei left 500 yuan to the owner of the food stall for the damages and took more than 3000 yuan leftover.

At the very least, I now have food for 2 months.

Wei Xiao Bei was feeling hungry again after beating the three hooligans. He was so hungry that he felt as if his stomach acid rose all the way to his mouth, crippling his entire body.

Worried that the police might find him, he went into a restaurant and spent 50 yuan to reward himself.

After returning to the apartments, the corridor was completely empty, probably because it was already late at night. The droning sound of television could even be heard from the rooms.

Wei Xiao Bei weakly sat on his bedside. He stared at the ceiling for what seemed like a long time, remembering the earlier fight.

Naturally, Wei Xiao Bei was slightly remorseful because of the fight. Afterall, he was not an obedient child who only knew how to study, and fighting was a normal occurrence in the army.

His strength did go up a bit after putting in his evolution points, but what was most crucial was the electric current that passed through his body, stimulating his muscles. This was the power that caused his muscles to grow in an instant.

If the electric current had not stimulated his muscles, he would have been toast after those three hooligans were done with him.

A female voice from outside the door increased Wei Xiao Bei’s attention.

It was the voice of Li Lan Xing and Zhou Li Jun, “Little Zhou, your complexion looks bad. Are you sick?”

“Ah, Sister Lan, nothing is wrong. It’s probably just because I’ve been staying up too late.”

Zhou Li Jun’s voice was slightly bashful. He was, after all, a shut-in, so seeing a beautiful older sister would unavoidably startle him.

Wei Xiao Bei listened to Li Lan Xing’s voice. His heart grew warm, so he opened the door and laughed loudly, “Sister Lan, aren’t you early today? Where’s Brother Huang?”

Wei Xiao Bei nodded his head at Zhou Li Jun as a greeting.

Li Lan Xing’s face became gloomy as she frowned, “He’s working overtime again today.”

“Sister Lan? Since Brother Huang is not here, don’t forget to call me if you get lonely.”

Wei Xiao Bei chuckled and closed the door, causing Li Lan Xing to scold him, “You little brat, how dare you tease your Sister Lan. Standstill! Watch me sew your mouth shut!”

At this time, Zhou Li Jun’s face was already bashfully red. He quickly hid back into his room. Although shut-ins were well-versed in porn, they were incredibly shy when faced with reality.

Wei Xiao Bei looked at the darkened sky while leaning on his bed, making the the status window appear.

Name: Wei Xiao Bei

Race: Human

Gender: Male

Age: 21

Creature Rank: 1 star

Status: (The average adult male’s status value is 10)

Strength: 11 (Muscle: 12, Sturdiness: 10)

Agility: 9.75 (Hand-eye Coordination: 9, Flexibility: 11, Reflex: 11, Balance: 8)

Vitality: 10 (Health: 9, Endurance: 11)

Intelligence: 7 (Learning: 6, Reasoning: 8)

Awareness: 9.25 (Willpower: 12, Judgement: 8, Perception: 7, Intuition: 10)

Charm: 7.2 (Courage: 10, Persuasiveness: 7, Character: 7, Leadership: 5, Appearance: 7)

Skills: Shooting (Intermediate), Military Boxing (Intermediate), Electrical Work (Beginner)

Special Skill: Release Electricity (Maximum strength 7 volts. Maximum current 1.5 milliampere. This skill was formed after Wei Xiao Bei ate the Thunder Worm Electric Ball. Maintaining a constant output for a long period could allow this skill to level up. Using this while exercising would stimulate strength and slowly increase agility.)

Evolution Point: 0

Items on hand: none

He looked at his status and noticed that other than the 1 point increase in muscle and the 0.5 increase in strength, his special skill had also improved. The maximum voltage that he could now produce increased by 2 and the electric current increased by 0.5 miliamperes. Although it was not much, he couldn’t help but feel happy about it.

The increased amount was small but looking at the proportionality, it had probably increased by 55%.

The progress of his release electricity special skill was probably from his fight with the hooligans. But although he had benefited from using the electricity, it had also left him in extreme hunger.

Wei Xiao Bei felt that good things will always come with bad things.

The good thing was upgrading his special skill, and the bad thing was that his wallet will empty faster.
