The City of Terror
chapter-413

 After encountering this unfortunate incident, Wei Xiao Bei did not plan to continue advancing.

With bad luck looming around him, something bad might just happen if he went to check the Fire Dragon.

Just being chased by a few Scarlet Pheasants or having the Fire Dragon wake up as he went in would be too horrible to imagine.

After leaving Cui Hu University and entering a hundred meters into the meadow, Wei Xiao Bei lay down as he thought about leaving. He instantly lost consciousness as his body disappeared into thin air.

……

When Wei Xiao Bei opened his eyes and woke up, he walked to the outdoor practice grounds. At this time, the frost on the ground had already melted. Wei Xiao Bei was preparing to ask Zhu Xin Yi about something when he heard a clear voice. His gaze immediately landed on Huang Kun’s body which was covered in ice.

He could feel Huang Kun’s heartbeat hastening.

Although Zhu Xin Yi was not that sensitive to it, seeing her master’s calm appearance made her understood that her junior apprentice-brother had woken up.

In just twenty minutes, Huang Kun opened his eyes and the first thing he said was, “So hungry.”

Wei Xiao Bei could not help but smile.

Huang Kun waking up and being hungry meant that he was fine. The hunger was only from sleeping for too long. Additionally, the frost was not just from the power released by the Ice Heart.

Most of the frost came from the power of the Ice Heart that leaked out when it merged with Huang Kun. Moreover, this energy consumption was in Huang Kun’s body.

In short, it was the same as Wei Xiao Bei’s state when he uses up [Release Electricity].

Wei Xiao Bei immediately took out some barbecued meat from his storage bag. This barbecued meat occupied a huge space in his storage bag, but Wei Xiao Bei was being cautious so he was reluctant to throw them away.

Now was a good time to give some to alleviate Huang Kun’s hunger. After all, even if the barbecued meat could not restore Huang Kun’s stamina, the meat was without a doubt packed with nutrition inside.

Huang Kun ate more than thirty pieces in one go, even if a piece weighed around 250 grams. However, eating 7.5 kg in one go was still startling.

At the very least, Zhu Xin Yi, who had been getting water, had her mouth hung open.

Until Huang Kun could not eat anymore, Wei Xiao Bei did not speak anymore and told Huang Kun to prepare his mind. He immediately threw a [Status Appraisal] at him.

Although he had been examined by his master before, Huang Kun still felt uncomfortable at the feeling of having his soul being peeked at, causing him to lose control of his newly attained ice powers and let it spread everywhere.

“This ability is good. I don’t need to use air conditioning for the summer anymore.”

Zhu Xin Yi was a bit envious. Women were creatures that seek beauty. If she could, she would be willing to trade with Huang Kun. Although [Charm Control] was very powerful, it was an ability that controlled monsters. In truth, she was enduring the face of the Lickers she controlled. A normal person would have given up.

……

After looking at Huang Kun’s status, Wei Xiao Bei knew that he had not been lazy. He had ranked up from a normal 2-Star to 2-Star Elite.

However, after looking at Huang Kun’s status, Wei Xiao Bei shook his head as Huang Kun’s [Fantasy Willpower] needed him to be eighteen years old for it to be useable.

After taking in the Ice Heart, Huang Kun obtained a new ability, [Ice Power].

Moreover, the flash drive had also upgraded. Other than storing food and water, it could now store other objects even if it was only a few. It was now comparable to the Small Holding Bag.

Wei Xiao Bei nodded his head, satisfied at Huang Kun’s changes.

At this time, Huang Kun already pulled Zhu Xin Yi to the side to try out his new power.

The experimental results made Huang Kun satisfied. Even if he had just obtained the special skill, Huang Kun could already release frost from his hands and feet. From then, he could freeze his enemies. Even if it was a Licker, he might not be able to freeze them, but he would be able to weaken them a lot and stop them from running.

There was no doubt that the [Ice Power] might appear weak, but it was very suited for Huang Kun’s current circumstances. As an expert in close combat, being able to freeze the enemy as he touches them and letting the enemy receive negative effects would allow him to gain victory.

Naturally, this power would grow as Huang Kun grows. This was unquestionable.

Compared to Huang Kun’s excitement, Wei Xiao Bei felt depressed to the extreme.

After returning from the Dust World, Wei Xiao Bei was covered in dirt and felt unpleasant. Thus he went to the bathroom and prepared to take a hot shower.

With Wei Xiao Bei’s current vitality, hot or cold did not matter. As long as he did not jump into lava, the temperature did not matter. However, if there was hot water, he would rather not have a cold bath.

However, when he had just turned on the nozzle, an explosion came from outside.

When he came out with a towel, he noticed that the water heater had blown up into fragments, causing pungent natural gas to spread everywhere. Just when Wei Xiao Bei was about to close the valve, a spark suddenly lit up.

This caused natural gas to explode.

When Zhu Xin Yi and Huang Kun heard the sound, they saw Wei Xiao Bei standing there with his body turned black.

There was no doubt that the natural gas had exploded. If it was a normal person they might have died from the explosion or been sent to the hospital for 2-3 months.

However, for Wei Xiao Bei, the explosion did cause much damage. That much impact could not even harm his body.

However, the question now was, who had the worst luck?

It was Wei Xiao Bei! He had recalled that his body had been afflicted by some Curse of Ten Thousand Spirits causing his body to be in a state of bad luck.

After the water heater exploded, he suddenly noticed that even if he had left the Dust World, the curse still stayed with him.

“Your master will leave for some time.”

Wei Xiao Bei simply did not dare stay in the dojo.

This time the water heater exploded, but what about next time? The dojo might just catch fire and burn down.

You might call it immoral but Wei Xiao Bei was willing to go to a hotel even if it burned… At the very least, his master would not fly into a rage.

Thus after briefing Huang Kun and Zhu Xin Yi on some matters, Wei Xiao Bei left the dojo.

As for where he would go, he had decided to go to a small hotel beside the Fengtou Mountain.

In truth, Wei Xiao Bei felt that his situation was similar to a protagonist being led by life and death by a grim reaper. As he could randomly encounter danger, he chose a place far from cars.

In the Fengtou Mountains, the number of humans was scarce. On the other hand, the place he was staying at was once a peasant family’s courtyard. The highest building was only two floors in height. Even if the building collapsed, it couldn’t crush Wei Xiao Bei to death. Moreover, he could decrease the number of casualties that could occur.

Although Wei Xiao Bei was not a saint, he was not willing to create casualties if there was no need to do so.

Next, Wei Xiao Bei was able to truly feel how difficult it was to be afflicted by bad luck.

To avoid car accidents, he did not drive the car himself. According to [Precise Calculation], if he drove a car, the chances of a car accident happening was a hundred percent.

This made him decide to go on foot.

However, what Wei Xiao Bei never expected was that even if he walked there, Wei Xiao Bei had still encountered three car accidents. Moreover, it was the cars that took the initiative to hit him. When Wei Xiao Bei dodged, the car would hit a wall or a post.

After he saved the drivers of the cars, he noticed that the drivers were completely drunk.

It might just be a coincidence, but the bad luck still gave Wei Xiao Bei a headache.

There was no doubt that this had already involved fate.

When Wei Xiao Bei made it there and entered the small hotel, a heavy truck had charged into the hotel due to a brake failure, hitting the room Wei Xiao Bei was staying at and creating a hole. The more than twenty reinforcing bars that it was carrying were flung inside Wei Xiao Bei’s room.
