Chapter 261 - The Hatchling Begins to Fly High
However, if he reads a lot more English magazines and uses English for conversations, then this gap would be easy to decrease.
After all, with a learning attribute of 20 points, even if he did not use evolution points to increase its their ranks, its rank up would not be slow.
Other people would need at least three years to deeply learn a language, but he would only need a month or even less.
Naturally, for something like this that would take up a lot of time, he would not mind using evolution points to quickly increase its progress.
After that, Wei Xiao Bei began to ponder where to find someone to teach him French and other languages. Other than that, he also needed to learn about how to identify Chinese medicinal ingredients.
Compared to languages, ingredients were something he could look up in the internet.
If he used the internet, he could find images of the medicinal plants. This was something that could not be done in ancient times.
In theancient past, there was only knowledge that could be passed down from a master to a student. They would bring their students to the wilderness and let them memorize their appearance.
The best part about the internet was that he could download information for a small price such as a plant encyclopedia or even a Chinese medicine illustration book.
These two sources of knowledge only cost Wei Xiao Bei 200 yuan. Naturally, this was a lot cheaper than buying a physical book, which would be around 5000 yuan for both of them.
Moreover, the illustrations of plants in electronic books was very clear, making it convenient to look at.
However, compared to gaining the [Language] skill, obtaining skills related to plant identification was a lot slower.
Wei Xiao Bei had doubted that he needed to memorize both books in order to gain the related skill.
Even if Wei Xiao Bei had a high learning skill, doing so would be very time consuming.
The books had tens of millions of words and tens of thousands of pictures...
Doing so would be truly difficult.
Luckily, compared to a normal person, Wei Xiao Bei's [Retentive Memory] was very useful here. At the very least, he would not forget what he had seen.
In the next few days, Wei Xiao Bei was like a spring-loaded robot that did not stop moving.
In the early morning, he would train his qi. After that, he would go work in the Long Hu Dou Restaurant until the afternoon. During his break, he did not forget to bring out his phone and start studying. After work, he would learn languages with teachers that he had hired until 10 pm. Then he would once again study the materials on his phone until 2-3 am. Only then would he go to sleep.
In short, if Wei Xiao Bei's vitality was not so strong, he would have already collapsed from overwork.
This was not just simple fatigue.
After learning French, Wei Xiao Bei dismissed his French teacher to temporarily stop this cyclic life. He moved a long couch to the outer practice ground to take a break while observing Huang Kun and Zhu Xin Yi training.
In truth, the language teachers that Wei Xiao Bei hired might be so expensive to the point that it was almost three times that of other people in their profession, but the duration of time that they needed to work was small. This could be considered as economizing.
After comfortably drinking tea, Wei Xiao Bei focused on his status panel.
Without any hesitation, he used up 200 evolution points to increase his French to proficient!
After his French reached proficient, he immediately felt as if he reached an adequate level.
It must be known that speaking fluently in French appeared stronger than speaking fluently in English.
In Europe, those who could speak French would refrain from using English. It must be known that in the sixteenth century, the British upper class would mostly speak French and not English.
At that time, only the commoners would speak English.
After dealing with another language, Wei Xiao Bei had 2540 evolution points left.
Afterwards, he focused on his agility's sub-attributes and increased them all by 3 points.
His sub-attributes were now like this: Hand-eye Coordination: 28 points, Flexibility: 38 points, Reflex: 26 points, Balance: 26 points.
This ramped up his agility to 27 points and decrease his evolution points by 2400.
This was enough to be able to support his muscle attribute that was at 40 points.
As for the remaining 140 evolution points, Wei Xiao Bei placed them in his electric current, increasing it to 331 milliamperes.
In an instant, his evolution points became zero.
However, Wei Xiao Bei did not regret this. As his evolution points disappeared, he became stronger and increased his survival rate.
After eating dinner, Wei Xiao Bei returned to his room and searched for more materials. Not long after, Zhu Xin Yi and Huang Kun knocked on his doors.
The two of them were not shy and bashful in front of him anymore as they opened their mouths, proposing to go to the Dust World to gain experience.
After becoming a 2-Star Creature, Huang Kun's motivation to gain experience increased. Zhu Xin Yi on the other hand was anxious after hearing that Huang Kun was now a 2-Star Creature. Thus the two of them worked together to summon up their courage to find their master.
After all, Wei Xiao Bei was strict in taking care of them and emphasized that they could not go into the Dust World without him leading the way. Otherwise, he would kick them out.
Whether it was Zhu Xin Yi or Huang Kun, this was something they were afraid of.
For them, Wei Xiao Bei was their leader, their master, and even a fatherly figure. Thus, they simply did not dare defy this rule.
However, training everyday in the dojo was also slightly tortuous for the both of them.
Thus they pondered for a long time before they summoned up their courage.
Hearing their request, Wei Xiao Bei could not help but let out a sigh. As the hatchlings grow up, there would come a time for them to leave their nest!
This day would definitely come and Wei Xiao Bei had pondered it before.
The life of being their caretaker was about to end, so he would be able to relax more.
"Okay! You can go now, but don't forget about safety. You should also refrain from being rude and impetuous."
Wei Xiao Bei smiled and slowly spoke.
"Master, we are really….what? Master agreed?"
Huang Kun wanted to put up a bit more fight, but he quickly reacted to Wei Xiao Bei's words and began to jump in joy along with Zhu Xin Yi.
Wei XIao Bei smiled and nodded.
Since their master had agreed to let them go, the two of them became more cautious. After asking a few questions to Wei Xiao Bei, they entered the Dust World through their own means.
Soon, their bodies gradually became transparent and disappeared. At this time, Wei Xiao Bei turned around and walked out.
Wei Xiao Bei currently did not have plans to enter the Dust World.
After his status increased a lot, he required time to adjust and familiarize himself with it. Additionally, he needed to stabilize his qi as he had just broken through a realm.
Naturally, learning about plants was something he needed to do in his idle time.
In the wee hours, Wei Xiao Bei, who was sitting on the couch outside his room, heard a bit of noise inside. He immediately looked towards his room.
Zhu Xin Yi and Huang Kun's body had already appeared.
Luckily, they injuries were not too heavy.
This time, they were both able to enter the Dust World without him and return safely. This was already a great feat. As for the injuries on their bodies, they was not much.
He quickly got up and brought the medicine box over. Before they woke up, he inspected their injuries.
Comparing both of them, Huang Kun's injuries were heavier than Zhu Xin Yi's. The deep wound on his back was something that needed to be stitched up.
Thus, after waking up Zhu Xin Yi, he let her be the nurse and began to give Huang Kun surgery.
After busying himself, Huang Kun's injuries were all dealt with. Then, he let Zhu Xin Yi go back to his room and followed behind to treat her injuries.
After leaving her, Wei Xiao Bei let out a small sigh.
Zhu Xin Yi's temper was truly firm. If it was another young woman, they would be worried about their injuries and cry. However, Zhu Xin Yi was different. She completely ignored the possible scars that might appear. On the contrary, she was much more worried that it would affect her training if it did not heal fast enough.
She had gone crazy!
Naturally, this included himself!
Wei Xiao Bei laid back down the couch and smiled as he fell asleep.
After waking up in the early morning, Wei Xiao Bei's mood became great. He found out that Zhu Xin Yi had finally become a 2-Star Creature after this visit to the Dust World.
This was a historic breakthrough!
This was not because Zhu Xin Yi could not charm 2-Star Creatures but because her special skill [Charm Control] had changed when she had become a 2-Star Creature.
Special Skills:
Proficient Charm Control: (This skill allows the user to control creatures with similar and lower creature rank than the user through means of massacre, threat, kindness, etc. The success rate of this skill is related to the user's charm and intelligence attributes. This ability is an innate ability of the user. For every 1-Star increase in the user's rank, this ability would upgrade. This ability can also be obtained when charm and intelligence attributes reach 20 points. Note: This skill allows the user to bring creatures from the Dust World into the real world, but it would consume the user's mental strength.)
[Charm Control] had become [Proficient Charm Control]. Moreover, the controlled monster could now be brought into the real world.
For Zhu Xin Yi, her power in the real world had increased!
It must be known that Zhu Xin Yi's current strength and agility was now on the same level as a robust man in his prime. Her vitality was probably even higher. With her Bajiquan, she could easily deal with many adult men.
If she had the Sacred Beetle Machete in her hands, dealing with 20-30 people would not be a problem.
However, compared to Huang Kun, she would not be able to easily close the gap between them.
But now, she had also become stronger in the real world by being able to bring over monsters from the Dust World.
It could be said like this, Huang Kun would not be able to put his hands on Zhu Xin Yi.
Chapter 262 - Everyone Has A Gift From The Dust World
Naturally, this was also because Huang Kun's [Fantasy Willpower] had not yet been activated.
From Wei Xiao Bei's point of view, everyone would receive a gift from the Dust World once they enter.
When he first entered the Dust World, his gift was his status panel, and the ability to use evolution points to strengthen himself. Moreover, the consumption of evolution points was less than other people by a bit. This was sufficient to allow him to quickly evolve!
On the other hand, Zhu Xin Yi had gained [Charm Control], a powerful late stage ability!
Huang Kun was slightly different. His [Fantasy Willpower] sounded very powerful, but the problem was that this ability would only activate by itself when he reached 18 years old.
If he wanted to take the initiative to activate it, he could need to increase his willpower, courage, and persuasiveness to 20 points!
With how Huang Kun's status was developing, Wei Xiao Bei felt that increasing his status in such a short amount of time would be difficult.
Huang Kun's status was leaning towards strength, agility, and vitality. His willpower had luckily grown to 10 points, and his courage was also 10 points. As for his persuasiveness, it was at 12 points.
Increasing these three in a short amount of time would be difficult.
Huang Kun did not have a status panel. The evolution points that he obtained would follow his nature and be used up, making it so that the amount used for these three sub-attributes was less.
However, it could be seen that this special skill might be a strong one once it activated.
Now in the early morning, Huang Kun and Zhu Xin Yi were training. They had shut the dojo gates tightly, and Zhu Xin Yi let out the Zombie Dogs and Treeman Saplings to become their opponents.
In truth, this training was leaning towards a real battle in the Dust World. And the combination of monsters were a lot stronger than Huang Kun and Zhu Xin Yi working together.
Although Wei Xiao Bei knew that this training had a lot of benefits, he did not join in. Zhu Xin Yi's strongest monster at the moment were the Zombie Dogs and Treeman Saplings. She still did not have any 2-Star Creatures. She could only get them the next time she entered the Dust World.
At night, Wei Xiao Bei just got off work from the Long Hu Dou Restaurant. He drove the minivan, but he did not immediately return to the dojo. After making a call to Zhu Xin Yi and Huang Kun that he will return late, he drove towards the direction of the old apartment.
The minivan could not help but stop at the beginning of the street because the road had already been sealed off. The inside appeared as if construction was about to begin soon.
In a panoramic view, the entire street was already in a miserable state as buildings and walls had already collapsed.
However, there were still sunlamps shining above, and some workers were either resting or playing mahjong in side the worker's shed.
On the other hand, the other half of the street had already been cleaned up, and there were loaders cleaning up the crushed stones
Seeing this scene, it should probably take another half a month for them to begin setting up the foundation and construct the highrise.
For the Da Hao Group's president, the earlier the place was constructed the better. This way, the money that he had invested would quickly have returns.
Wei Xiao Bei parked the minivan in an underground parking lot and came out wearing sunglasses and a cloak while carrying a bag. Then he walked towards the apartment street, specifically towards a dark corner. Seeing that there was no one around, Wei Xiao Bei relaxed his guard and entered the world of collapsed buildings.
After finding a building that was still intact, he entered through the window.
The inside was dark and empty.
For those landlords, they even carried away worn-out cabinets. In short, they were not willing to let things be thrown into the garbage.
Wei Xiao Bei did not avoid the dust on the ground and sat on it. He took out wine from his bag and broke the neck of it with a light push of his thumb..
With his strength, this was only child's play. Let alone wine bottles, even stones could be crushed to dust with a pinch of his fingers!
40 points in muscle was not a toy to play with.
It might appear that 40 points was only twice 20, but the power behind it was more than double.
Wei Xiao Bei had nothing to accurately gauge his strength, but at the very least, he could guarantee that he could carry a two ton vehicle.
Speaking of which, yesterday Wei Xiao Bei had encountered a large car blocking an alley that he was passing through in the middle. Seeing that no one was around, his hands itched and held onto the car's chassis. With effort, he had raised the car that was more than two tons on the side of the wall.
As for whether this was convenient for the driver to get in the car or not, Wei Xiao Bei did not care.
At the very least, he had considered himself to have done a good deed, helping the resident bikers of the alley.
Returning back to topic, Wei Xiao Bei was now already within the apartment street. Naturally, he was not here to drink wine and enjoy the scenery, but it was because he could not enter the Dust World from the dojo anymore.
He was already considerably lucky the previous time and escaped the attack through the door. In the end, he had safely entered the Northern European Dust World.
If this time he entered from the dojo, he might probably die this time. If it was another person making a mess out of his property and kill his men, he would also be unable to endure such a thing.
However, if Wei Xiao Bei went to the room where Li Lan Xing and Zhang Tian Tian stayed and entered from that place, he had a premonition that things would not go well.
Thus, he decided to come here to enter the Dust World.
Although the entire street was being demolished, the place he chose was not too eye-catching.
If anyone was to do the same as Wei Xiao Bei, no one would come to inspect as long as construction had not started.
The more valuable things inside the rooms had already been carried away.
Moreover, who would have so much time to come to such a dilapidated apartment to steal things.
Naturally, this was excluding people who would steal wooden boards, but this was very rare.
After pushing the bottleneck, Wei Xiao Bei aimed at his mouth and poured it down his throat.
After three bottles, his mind gradually became hazy as he slowly fell asleep.
When he woke up, the first thing he felt was that his nose was stifled. He quickly got up and saw that he was actually lying down on a pile of dust.
Dust spread everywhere, and his nose was stuffed with dust, causing him to choke.
Luckily, Wei Xiao Bei sensed that there was no other movement around him. After cleaning his nose with water, only then was he able to open his eyes and take a look of his surroundings.
Wei Xiao Bei had already came here before and accidentally toppled all of the buildings, turning them into a large pile of dust.
He had identified a location and walked towards Lake Cui.
The Thousand Eyed Devil might be a 3-Star Terror Creature, but the first time he encountered it, he used [Release Electricity] to get rid of its control over him.
He had previously said to himself that monsters like the Thousand Eyed Devil was the equivalent of a paper tiger as long as he could break through its illusion.
Although Wei Xiao Bei did not have a guarantee that this was so, he believed in it. No matter what was said, he would need to go take a look to understand the actual situation.
Naturally, the main reason he was going there was to for the black beetles.
The black beetles that he had encountered were like at tide.
Every single one of them gave him 0.25 evolution points, allowing him to become stronger in a short amount of time.
Speaking frankly, the reason he came into the Dust World was to farm evolution points.
The black beetle tide was dense and plantiful. There was so many of them, but they were all weak. However, once their number reached a certain amount, then the threat they posses was not small. However, for Wei Xiao Bei, they were not a danger.
No matter what was said, these black beetles were a lot weaker than the Sacred Beetle Descendants.
Thus, the black beetles had become his first choice in farming.
Before even moving 50 meters towards Lake Cui, Wei Xiao Bei immediately felt that something was wrong.
The two sides of the street was turned piles of dust. These dust were something that Wei Xiao Bei accidentally caused.
But now, Wei Xiao Bei felt that something was looking at him from those piles of dust.
The eyes had very weak power in them, but there was a countless number on them on him, making it hard for Wei Xiao Bei to ignore them.
With his high intuition, Wei Xiao Bei felt a tingling sensation on his body.
Could it be that the dust had mutated? From being lifeless, they had gained a life?
Although this kind of thoughts would be a joke in the real world, but for Wei Xiao Bei who had encountered too many strange things in the Dust World, this was not a joke.
Wei Xiao Bei touched his Small Holding Bag and the great spear appeared in his hand.
Whoosh!
The great spear was like a beating stick as Wei Xiao Bei smashed towards the dust pile!
Bang!
With a loud boom, the dust that Wei Xiao Bei hit had blown up and spread everywhere.
Large amount of black dots had been smashed into minced meat while the rest of the black dots began to crawl towards Wei Xiao Bei.
