The City of Terror

The large tree roots that made up the ground immediately ignited, becoming a sea of flames that extended hundreds of meters.

Although Wei Xiao Bei avoided the fire storm’s range, he could not save his clothes as they turned to ashes.

Even the two large wolves that had once again gone invisible were forced out by the firestorm. They ran around with smoke all over their bodies.

The Flame Giant was worthy of being the Jotunn Giant’s Descendant. The attack was slightly slow, but against enemies with weak fire resistance, this attack would turn them into ashes.

In simpler terms, this move was used to deal with large amounts of enemies. Moreover, the sea of flames that formed afterward would deal a large amount of damage to enemies.

That said, a powerful attack like that should be one of the Flame Giant’s trump cards.

Thus, after using blood rupture, the Flame Giant appeared limp, and its body appeared to have shrunk a bit.

However, this was not without benefits.

Other than killing the enemy directly, the other two Flame Giants had been bathed in the sea of flames, appearing to be a lot more refreshed compared to before. They then went after Wei Xiao Bei from both sides.

The fireballs in their hands had grown to twice the size compared to before, appearing like meteorites coming down from the skies as they smashed toward him.

Even if Wei Xiao Beo dodged the burning meteorites, the meteorites would smash onto the ground and burst into smaller fireballs.

With the first attack, Wei Xiao Bei had almost been hit.

The worst part of this was that the ground was made up of the World Tree’s roots. Once the burning meteor landed, a sea of flames immediately formed as the roots burned, decreasing the space where Wei Xiao Bei could hide.

The temperature of the sea of flames could not compare to the firestorm caused by the Flame Giant’s blood rupture, but it was still around 600 degrees Celcius. In other words, as long as Wei Xiao Bei set foot inside, he could only resist half the damage of the flames. As for the remaining half, as long as time passed, then he would be burned to ashes.

Injuring ten fingers on the enemy was not as good as breaking one!

If the deadlock continued, Wei Xiao Bei could indeed kill the three Flame Giants, but the injuries he would receive would not be light.

The most important part was that once the sea of flames spread, the terrifying situation it would create was something that Wei Xiao Bei could not imagine.

Will the entire World Tree become a torch?

It was easy to tell how terrifying the consequences were.

Once the World Tree was removed, wouldn’t the Dust World shatter and become the Dust World stone?

If Wei Xiao Bei was outside the World Tree’s range to watch the events and wait to get the Dust World stone after everything ended, then it was not a bad event.

However, the World Tree’s scope was too huge. Wei Xiao Bei’s current position would not allow him to easily leave the place in a short amount of time.

Thus, killing the Flame Giants became Wei Xiao Bei’s number one priority.

Without any hesitation, Wei Xiao Bei charged into the sea of flames. The rising flames immediately drowned Wei Xiao Bei.

The continuous damage from the flames that exceeded 600 degrees Celcius was not inferior to the instantaneous damage from the flames that exceeded 1000 degrees Celcius. So much so that once enough time passed, the accumulated injuries would be more than ten times worse.

Wei Xiao Bei shut his mouth the moment he jumped into the flames.

In this sea of flames, even breathing the air would damage the respiratory tract.

After all, no matter how strong Wei Xiao Bei’s body was, he could not make his tender respiratory tract the same.

After running ten steps, Wei Xiao Bei’s partially burnt clothes burnt to nothing, leaving him naked.

If this was the real world, Wei Xiao Bei would feel a bit embarrassed, but in the Dust World, there was nobody else there to see him. Wei Xiao Bei was not the least bit ashamed. While he was running toward the Flame Giants, the thought of making fireproof clothes popped up in his head. Otherwise, he would have to forever fight fire-based creatures while naked.

Seeing Wei Xiao Bei was not afraid of the high temperature and was charging over, the two Flame Giants that originally planned to besiege him immediately quickened their attack speed. Under the support of the sea of flames, fireballs the size of raindrops shot towards Wei Xiao Bei.

Wei Xiao Bei did not pay any attention to the fireballs, as he let them land on his body. He extended his spear forward and used all his force. The originally twenty-meter distance was closed in an instant. The great spear did not fade in color and was like a silver dragon that jumped toward the Flame Giant’s chest.

“Die!”

With a whoosh, three thrusts were fired at the Flame Giant. It could only look with its eyes wide open as the spear penetrated its chest.

Puchi! Puchi! Puchi!

With three sounds, the great spear opened up three deep holes in the Flame Giant’s chest.

The Flame Giant’s height was its greatest advantage.

For normal creatures, these three thrusts would penetrate through to their backs, creating a hole that you can see through.

However, an injury like this against the giants had significantly less of an effect. Its internal organs were not touched at all.

However, this was not something they should be rejoicing at.

The moment that the great spear was pulled out, blue electricity burst from the wound, stunning the Flame Giant that was about to roll away to dodge.

However, this was not an instantaneous thing. There was no doubt that this was only a means to an end.

After pulling out the great spear, he lightly turned it and run it through the Flame Giant’s neck. Without pulling it out, he shook the spear.

How could the Flame Giant endure the shaking after its neck had been run through? With the added effect of [Power Crush], a hole had been blown open.

It could be said that the Jotunn Blood running through the Flame Giant’s body was extraordinary.

It had already been injured this badly. If it was another creature, it would have already been fatally wounded. However, when Wei Xiao Bei pulled out the great spear, the Flame Giant could still use its hands to clap at Wei Xiao Bei.

A desperate attack!

At the same time, the Flame Giant’s eyes shot out two lines of fire toward Wei Xiao Bei.

As the proverb goes, ‘a thin dead camel is bigger than a horse’.

No matter what was said, the Flame Giant was still a 3-Star Terror Creature. Even if Wei Xiao Bei had suppressed it, it could still let out all of its strength before it died.

This was the final attack of the Flame Giant. It could be said to have contained all of its life force as the speed of the attack was so fast that even Wei Xiao Bei could not dodge it.

With a loud boom, Wei Xiao Bei curled himself into a ball before he was struck by a large hand. In an instant, he had been slapped to the ground. Two lines of flame followed behind him and they were followed up by another slapping attack.

Bang! It was like a gas tank exploding after catching fire. The hole that Wei Xiao Bei was thrown into let out white flames.

This kind of white flame had an extremely high temperature that was not lower than 2000 degrees Celcius.

In other words, the majority of metals could not bear such heat and could only melt under it.

Under this kind of attack, even the White Mist Draconic Horse which was of the same rank as the Flame Giants would not be able to escape death.

Naturally, the Draconic Horse had a mist-like body. Its injury would be a lot heavier against flames.

Whether it was the attacking giant or the other two giants, all of them relaxed. They immediately moved their attention to the two Giant Wolves.

In truth, the reason why the three giants attacked Wei Xiao Bei first was simple.

As the Jotunn Giant’s descendants, they had Jotunn’s Blood that had the same ability as Wei Xiao Bei’s [Early Warning].

Their warning ability had told them that Wei Xiao Bei was the most dangerous existence around.

Just like that, the Flame Giants had grouped up to attack Wei Xiao Bei.

Wei Xiao Bei died just like that?

Just when the Flame Giants moved their attention to the wolves and were about to begin attacking, the flames in the hole suddenly burst as a burning human figure came out.

With movements as fast as lightning, Wei Xiao Bei instantly charged in front of the tottering Flame Giant with his spear forward.

Die!

Wei Xiao Bei swallowed a mouthful of Secondary Spring Water of Youth. His flesh had mostly been cooked, but the great spear in his hand did not sway and was thrust out as fast as lightning. In an instant, it had pierced through the Flame Giant’s eye.

Puchi!

Blood immediately flowed out from the Flame Giant’s eye as it roared in pain, but this was its last cry.

The incredibly sharp spearhead penetrated the eye and went into the brain. With a fierce stir, even if the Flame Giant had [Limb Regrowth] it would not be able to recover.

With a sudden blow, the Flame Giant had died.

1000 evolution points obtained.

At the same time, Wei Xiao Bei extended his right hand and the Flame Giant’s body disappeared in midair, as Wei Xiao Bei stored it into the storage bracelet.

At this time, the two Flame Giants did not notice that Wei Xiao Bei had broken out as they continued to chase after the two Giant Wolves.

That said, with the sea of flames supporting them, they were able to display the power of a 3-Star Terror Creature.

After continuously throwing balls of fire, the two wolves could not even dodge let alone escape.

At this moment, Wei Xiao Bei did not bother saving his strength anymore. He took this chance to charge forward while the giants’ backs were turned towards him.

When they were less than twenty meters away, Wei Xiao Bei burst forth with power.

Activate Intermediate Power Burst!

Activate Bold and Decisive!

Activate Deductive Reasoning!

In an instant, Wei Xiao Bei’s figure became a blur. In an instant, he had charged to the side of one Flame Giant. At the same time, he had thrust out his spear with three spears toward the heart, two towards the neck, and the last one toward the eye.
