Chapter 247: Unorganized and Undisciplined
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The 500-point man was the closest to the explosion point; his clothes and body were slightly damaged.
His expression was uncertain.
He stroked the wounds on his body quietly.
A crystal-clear ice piece appeared, repairing his injured body.
“A newbie.” He looked at the three of them, and the sternness and disdain in his tone disappeared.
It was replaced by a strange calm. “I will admit that I underestimated you. You have a lot of tricks up your sleeve. It is no surprise the guide was in such bad shape.”
Wang Wen listened quietly to the other party’s nonsense.
He quietly gathered his mental power.
That damn thing’s progress was as high as 500 points, and its strength was obviously many times greater than the State Preceptor.
It had taken about 30 percent of his mental power to defeat the State Preceptor.
If he wanted to defeat the 500-point man, he might need more than 100 percent.
So his goal was…
There was no target.
There were so many people there; why should they focus on getting that 500-point man?
He just had to kill some smaller monsters to make up for the progress!
As a result, Wang Wen not only did not interrupt the other party but hoped that the other party would speak a little longer so that he could plan his next move.
The 500-point man said expressionlessly, “You guys were very strong. Unfortunately, you have also successfully angered me.”
At that point…
All the people around him took a step back.
The man in white was scared out of his wits. He ran to the other side, trying to hide behind the crowd.
Wang Wen thought for a moment.
He led Zhu Xingguo and Ren Ruoruo into the crowd to hide while continuously condensing his mental energy.
The crowd was so agitated that they kept moving to the other side.
Wang Wen changed the solemn scene into one that depicted an eagle catching a chick.
Wang Wen’s group was the eagles.
The 500-point man was the hen.
The rest of the progress points were the chicks that needed to hide behind the hen.
The only difference was that the chicks were not afraid of the eagles.
Instead, they feared the hen would hurt the innocent chicks when it attacked the eagles.
Ultimately, they only saw the eagle shamelessly chase after the chicks.
Some of the stronger chicks were furious. They released their powers in an attempt to restrain the three of them.
In that instant…
Countless mud walls, steel plates, and cement blocks, even the unconscious beggars, blocked the three of them.
Various colored flames surrounded Wang Wen.
The transparent barrier he had just condensed instantly drained nearly half of his mental strength.
Wang Wen’s brow was drenched in sweat. “Attack and buy me time!” he said to Zhu Xingguo and Ren Ruoruo.
Zhu Xingguo and Ren Ruoruo immediately attacked.
Ren Ruoruo took out her only supreme treasure, the Great Sage and transformed. She plucked out its fur and summoned countless underlings to pounce on the opposite side.
Zhu Xingguo realized that his Fart Technique and Mosquitoes Must Die technique were both on cooldown.
Therefore, he looked through the Fair Exchange, which was like a garbage dump.
After a long time…
He clenched his teeth and threw a large black iron can forward with great force.
The Fair Exchange would maintain the item’s state when it was traded.
Out of the corner of his eye, Wang Wen noticed a familiar black iron can. His expression also changed.
He ripped them apart and fled in terror.
He was still uneasy, even though the transparent barrier obscured his view. He cast a shield for himself and then stood in front of Zhu Xingguo and Ren Ruoruo.
BOOM!
The black iron, like a chrysanthemum, had the ability to bloom.
Countless out-of-control high-speed particles scattered everywhere.
It destroyed everything it came into contact with.
The hall was dismantled.
[Level progress: 13%]
[Level progress: 33%]
[Level progress: 83%. ]
[Level progress: 133%. Level 600 cleared.]
[Level progress: 233%. Level 600 cleared.]
The transparent barrier sucked all of the spiritual energy he had gathered.
Wang Wen braved the storm and pulled the drone over to open the entrance to the next floor.
He pulled Zhu Xingguo and Ren Ruoruo, who had been riddled with holes by stray debris, and entered the next level.
The portal disappeared.
Snowflakes began to fall in the center of the explosion.
Everything the snowflakes touched gradually turned into ice crystals.
Even the violent, high-speed particles could not prevent the finger from wrapping. It came to a halt and froze in mid-air.
The radial space looked like a movie effect, with all objects frozen in place like ice sculptures.
He waited until all the noises died away.
That included the heartbeats of the people nearby.
A human-sized ice ball split in half.
When the 500-point man walked out, his face was cold, and his body was covered in ice crystals that were healing him.
He did not care about his injuries.
His gloomy eyes swept across the frozen hall.
There should have been three people in the radial area’s center, but there was only one.
He took a step forward and noticed that the ground had fewer scratches.
The 500-point man stood there, his jaw bulging. No one knew what he was thinking.
After a long while…
He threw an ice ball angrily.
The ice ball exploded on the ground, releasing a slew of sharp icicles that pierced the people lying on the ground.
The blood that flowed out became ice.
The bloody yet beautiful scene caused the audience outside the glass ring, who could not even be washed away by high-speed particles, to cheer and applaud in delight.
The 500-point man’s face turned even paler.
…
On the World Tower’s 601st floor.
In a time-limited secret room.
Wang Wen found the time-limited secret room to be relatively simple.
All of the riddles’ solutions were revealed at a glance.
If it was Ren Ruoruo, she might have to use her hands to spell out the answer.
Wang Wen reached out and tapped the lock to solve the puzzle.
Except for the headache and nosebleed, the time-limited secret room had become as simple as surviving in the wild.
But he was in no rush to decrypt it.
Zhu Xingguo and Ren Ruoruo were both seriously injured.
The black iron had detonated without any warning.
Even though everyone had already cooperated and experimented a few times between the 500th and 600th floors…
He was still caught off guard.
If Wang Wen had not activated the double layer of protection of the transparent barrier and the spirit shield, everyone would have been wiped out.
There was no time to leave the tower at that critical juncture.
The countless high-speed particles charging at them would only smash them to pieces.
Even so…
Zhu Xingguo and Ren Ruoruo had countless wounds on their bodies.
The small, penetrating wound appeared insignificant at first glance, but it penetrated their internal organs.
The bigger ones had broken bones and tendons, and their arterial blood spurted out like a faucet that could not be closed as their hearts pumped.
The Elixir of Life was poured onto the two of them as if they were free.
He still could not stop the bleeding.
The recovery rate could not keep up with the speed of injury deterioration.
Wang Wen frowned.
He was about to say something to Zhu Xingguo.
Zhu Xingguo took out two Great Rejuvenation Golden Core pills, one for himself and one for Ren Ruoruo.
Wang Wen raised his eyebrows and said with slight displeasure, “Why are you using the Great Rejuvenation Golden Core pills?”
The three of them had spent a long time researching the fact that the World Tower items could be sold.
It became a copy as the number of purchases increased.
Therefore, Wang Wen asked Zhu Xingguo to sell all their relics.
Aside from the supreme treasures that he could never duplicate, the other rare items were all three times rarer.
Even though it was three times more…
Rare items like the Great Rejuvenation Golden Core pill that could only be found between the 500th and 510th floors only had four of them, including the main one.
Using such important supplies on his own initiative was highly unorganized and undisciplined.
Wang Wen wondered if he had spoiled that disciple too much, causing him to become so unscrupulous.
Zhu Xingguo swallowed the Great Rejuvenation Golden Core pill but was perplexed by Wang Wen’s expression.
When he heard the question…
“Oh, because the Nine Transformations Golden Pill is a supreme treasure that can’t be duplicated, I wanted to leave it for you, Master,” he explained.
Wang Wen held his forehead, wondering if that was what he meant.
However, it did not matter what he meant at the moment.
Zhu Xingguo’s simple words struck Wang Wen’s heart.
Wang Wen stood quietly, watching Zhu Xingguo begin to copy other miscellaneous things and stuff them into their mouths. He shook his head and let him be.
Unorganized and undisciplined?
He would just call it that, then.
