The City of Terror

When he finished, he saw that his intimacy with Kashmir increased by 5 points.

This was not much, but it was a breakthrough regardless.

Seeing the reindeer approach, they were probably attracted to the smell. Wei Xiao Bei could not help but let out a small groan, startling the reindeers. He did not have any inclination to feed the reindeers with meat. Leaving aside whether this was cruel or not, Wei Xiao Bei would not choose to waste the barbecue.

It seems that creatures in the Dust World also feared the strong.

Without Wei Xiao Bei needing to show killing intent, the reindeers became obedient. They did not sneak out and followed beside him.

Naturally, Wei Xiao Bei knew that they were different from Kashmir who had established a partnership contract with him. These reindeers were only trying to lean on someone strong to protect themselves. If something bad happened, they were the first to turn around and run away.

After eating two pieces of barbecue, Wei Xiao Bei immediately began to cook more and replenished his supply.

After busying himself, he cooked most of the raw meat, but only a small portion was applied with cowberry since doing it with only one hand was quite troublesome.

If he had to apply cowberry to every piece of meat, then it would take him hours to finish.

Even if the meat was not applied with cowberry juice, it still became high quality goods. Unfortunately, it only increased stamina recovery and not mental strength.

After finishing his work and eating a few pieces of meat in the process, Wei Xiao Bei’s Small Holding Bag was fully filled, but there was around 100 kilograms worth of barbecued meat left that could not fit inside it. Wei Xiao Bei decided to make baskets from the branches of the shrubs and let the reindeers carry them.

Although the reindeers were young, they were still larger than mature reindeers in the real world. Every young reindeer was carrying about 25 kilograms of meat on their backs, and they were not strained at all.

Afterwards, Wei Xiao Bei rode on top of the female reindeer and picked up the fairy that was still gnawing on the meat, placing it on his shoulder. With a whistle, he signaled the reindeer to advance.

As for the reindeer corpses that he had killed, he did not care about them anymore.

Even if he turned them all into barbecue, he would not be able to move them. He’d rather just leave them there, and it might even attract the big wolf, diverting the danger from himself.

Wei Xiao Bei had slightly understood this region after listening to the Small Fairy.

It was just as he imagined. The giant tree was indeed the World Tree that was praised in European legends!

As for the land covered in gray snow, the fairy called it the Abandoned Lands. This should be similar to the Evil Lands that the Ming Lun Envoy described.

From the Small Fairy’s narration, plants only grew in the land around a certain range from the World Tree.

Wei Xiao Bei also asked a few things such as the European gods and other such matters.

Although the Small Fairy race began to live alone after 30 years old, they had a long life span, allowing them to understand many things.

It said that the place was the land of Ragnarok. The gods and the giants killed each other to the last being, submerging the world in burning blood and leading to the world’s collapse.

When the burning blood subsided and disappeared, the World Tree once again sprouted a new bud. Only then did life once again begin to appear in this world.

However, after the battle, the World Tree’s origin had received fatal damage, causing it to continuously weaken.

Following the World Tree’s weakening, the Abandoned Lands continued to expand towards the World Tree, worsening the living environment of the place day by day.

As for creatures there, the creatures that the Small Fairy had seen the most were reindeers and mountain goats. It had also seen elves, dwarves, big wolves, horses, wild boars, and even crows.

These were roughly the only creatures around the vicinity of the World Tree. As for stronger creatures, the fairy had not seen any with its movement range.

Among the reindeers, the strongest was the king of reindeers. It was a male reindeer with red antlers. Wei Xiao Bei guessed that it was a 2-Star Terror Creature.

The mountains goats there were the descendants of Heidrun, the goat who ate leaves from the World Tree which she converted into the mead that flows from her udders.

As for elves, they were light skinned creatures that were taller than most humans. The only difference between them and humans were their pointed ears. They were also good with archery. They were originally residents of Alfheim, one of the nine worlds of the World Tree, but after Ragnarok, their country also perished, causing them to spread out into this place.

The dwarves had also lost the majority of their culture and civilization. They were not excellent craftsmen or metallurgists anymore. However, they still lived underground and could not endure sunshine. If they were exposed to the sun, then they would turn into stone, unable to recover forever.

As for big wolves, horses, wild boars, and crows, they were all strong magical beasts or mythological animal descendants. Although their ancestors had already died in Ragnarok, they were still stronger than other creatures.

The big wolves were Hati’s descendants. During Ragnarok, Hati was the wolf that ate the moon. It was one of the terrifying wolf children of Fenrir, while Fenrir was the wolf that ate Odin, the leader of the gods.

The horses were the descendants of one of the horses owned by the Freyr, the phallic fertility god.

The wild boars were the descendants of the golden boar rode by Freyr. According to legend, the golden boar was even faster than horses.

The crows were the descendants of the crow that used to patrol the human world owned by Odin

In short, these creatures’ ancestors were famous legendary figures.

However, after hearing the Small Fairy’s narration, he felt that this place had truly declined.

In truth, Wei Xiao Bei felt that the Dust World could truly fit such things. It had even placed the world of Ragnarok inside it.

That said, Wei Xiao Bei felt that the Norse Gods were not that strong as their ends were already predetermined.

They were gods yet they were not immortal. Moreover, they needed to drink water from the fountain of youth to keep their youth.

When they had predicted Ragnarok, no matter how much the gods struggled, they could not escape their fate and died there.

Naturally, even if they relied on the fountain of youth to keep their immortality, they were stronger existences in comparison to him. Thus Wei Xiao Bei rejoiced that this was not the land of pre-Ragnarok. If it was like that, he would not know how to deal with the gods or giants.

The Small Fairy’s continuation slightly affected Wei Xiao Bei’s heart rate.

In the Abandoned Lands, it was said that there were corpses of gods and giants, but the environment of the place was too vile, so the fairy did not go there.

Hearing this, Wei Xiao Bei became slightly excited. After all, the gods and giants were very strong. If he could find the place, he might obtain something good.

Wei Xiao Bei was not an haughty person. Towards things like searching for corpses, a safer activity, he would not reject them.

Naturally, there might also be danger, but the danger should not be too high.

The fairy was happy about advancing towards the World Tree.

It must be known that the foundation of life in this world was the World Tree.

This place was the Dust World, meaning that there were a lot of dangers that prevented Kashmir from advancing towards the World Tree. Thus, it was like a person who could not leave their hometown but became excited once they were able to go elsewhere.

If the Small Fairy was alone, it would probably be eaten by some carnivorous monster before even reaching 5 kilometers of it.

How could the carnivorous animals bother to care about something like a curse. They only knew that the meat in their mouth was the best meat ever!

The Small Fairy could fly? Even if she could fly, the crows were a lot faster than itself.

For the Small Fairies, crows were their predator.

As he rode on the reindeer’s back, Wei Xiao Bei was thinking about where to distribute his 2100 evolution points.

If he placed them in the muscle attribute, his 30 points muscle attribute would quickly rise to 40 points. Then he would gain a new ability.

However, he thought about the consequences of doing so and gave up this thought.

In the end, Wei Xiao Bei decided to use 2000 evolution points in increased his hand-eye coordination and flexibility to 25 points while also increasing reflex and balance to 23 points.

As for the remaining 100 points, he placed them into his electric current, increasing the limit to 261 milliamperes.

This could be said as his policy.

Everytime he increased his attributes, he would place the remaining points into electric current. This way he could increase the strength of his special skill.

At the moment, the 1000 voltage was already enough as it could break the air and shoot out a short distance.

Thus, he needed to now raise the electric current to strengthen [Release Electricity].

In simpler terms, voltage determined electricity’s ability to break the air, while electric current determined how strong the electricity was.

The higher the both of them were, the stronger his [Release Electricity] would become.

Thus, Wei Xiao Bei made this decision.

For a human being, touching 90-100 milliampere electric currents for three seconds was enough to paralyze them and stop their heart beat.

However, the majority of Wei Xiao Bei’s enemies were not humans but monsters in the Dust World. Thus, increasing the electric current was a necessity.

The majority of the monsters Wei Xiao Bei encountered before were unable to be dealt with by electricity, such as the Wooden Training Dummies and the Monster Tools. He had tried it before but there was simply no effect.

But in this place, electricity should have its uses.
