Chapter 51 – Thousand Eyed Devil!

It seemed like the changes starting happening to Lake Cui when the black beetles appeared.

Looking at the clear lake water, he did not even dare to jump down.

This place is too strange.

It’s so strange, as if there are countless eyes looking at me.

No!

There really is something looking at me.

Wei Xiao Bei had just removed the rope bound on the pitchfork when he felt this strange feeling.

Though this was not due to his perception being strong, but because there were actually countless red colored eyes looking at him from the lake.

It looked as if the lake had somehow grew eyes. When Wei Xiao Bei looked at them, they looked back at him.

Fuck!

An unsuppressable cold air was wrapped around his body. Wei Xiao Bei could feel his limbs weakened and became dizzy. After a few moments, the air was so suffocating, he could not even breathe.

Just before he was about to completely faint, he felt something had staring him from behind, making his hair stand on end.

Electrical discharge!

At that moment, Wei Xiao Bei did not hesitate and let out his full electrical power.

Following this, countless tiny electrical arcs appeared from his body. The previous cold air was suddenly blocked, making him regain some control of his body.

When he finally recovered, he immediately moved back and turned to run away. He tried to frantically escape through the reed thicket. Even if the reed thicket would cause him some light wounds later on, he did not care at all.

Wei Xiao Bei only turned back to take a sneak look once the cold feeling he had mostly dispersed.

His heart trembled as he turned to look and   immediately sped up, using every bit of energy he had left.

What he saw when he looked back, was a strange fish slowly appearing from Lake Cui. Its body was over twenty meters long and its shape was no different from the Fiendish Man Fish;ash gray in color and a terrifying human head. The most terrifying thing about it, was that its entire body was covered in red eyeballs!

Even if they were separated by a hundred meters distance, Wei Xiao Bei was able to see his inverted image reflected by those red eyeballs.

He could feel goosebumps all over his body. The thing that frightened him the most was that when his eyes met with its eyeballs, the feeling of his body being robbed of control once again appeared, making him run for his life.

Without stopping at all, Wei Xiao Bei escaped to the back of the street. When he stepped on the street, a terrifying shreek echoed from behind him.

It was like someone was dying. He suddenly felt that the cold air enveloping his body had completely disappeared.

At this point in time, Wei Xiao Bei turned around to look at the lake.

Eh? The strange fish that had appeared on the lake disappeared without a trace.

Seeing that the danger had disappeared, Wei Xiao Bei’s tensed psyche immediately relaxed. His entire body weakened, unable to even stand straight, and he collapsed to the ground, gasping for oxygen.

When the strange fish stared at him, his mind tensed up. He did not even have time to think, but now that he was relaxed, a lingering fear appeared in his heart.

Luckily, his electrical discharge was able to fight his strange state, or else the result would just be too horrible to think about.

That strange fish was simply an enemy that he could not defeat right now!

Wei Xiao Bei vowed that he would not come back to Lake Cui until he had obtained the power to defend against that strange cold air.

This place was too strange. The monsters that appeared were things that should never exist.

After blankly sitting there for a while, he finally felt the pitchfork that he had been tightly holding onto the whole time.

This made him start to daydream.

If I had thrown this pitchfork at it, would I have achieved anything?

Perhaps it would have been enough to kill the enemy?

Or could it have simply counterattacked and kill me? All of these were possible options.

After thinking for a long time, Wei Xiao Bei came to the decision that there was an 80% chance he would have died. After all, the monster that appeared was not something a normal person could fight against.

Afterall, he was only a human being.

After putting away his thoughts, he discovered that a battle log had appeared below his status panel.

Battlelog: 

Encounter with 3-star Terror Class Creature, Thousand Eyed Devil. 

Body’s consciousness received Evil Thoughts attack.

Willpower: 12 points, blocked part of the attack.

Body has been slightly paralyzed.

Release Electricity partially removed negative effects.

Entered into the streets.

Evil Thoughts Possessor received an attack and disappeared.

Wei Xiao Bei had too many questions at the newest addition to his status panel, the battle log.

Thousand Eyed Devil? Terror Class Creature?

This name truly fitted the image of the huge strange fish. The amount of eyes Wei Xiao Bei had seen on it would probably not be below a thousand.

The monsters that Wei Xiao Bei had met after entering The Dust World were the Thunder Worm, normal Fishmen, Elite Fishmen, Fishmen Guards and the Fiendish Man Fish.

Other than the Thunder Worm, all of these strange creatures were only 1-star creatures. This was something that Wei Xiao Bei knew, he also knew that the strength between these creatures were different. Therefore, he concluded that the Fishmen must have been normal 1 star creatures, while the Elite Fishmen, Fishmen Guard, and the Fiendish Man Fish must have been 1-star Elite Class Creatures.

In that case, the Thunder Worm would have been a normal 2-star creature.

Thinking about it this way, it was easier to understand the difference between his enemies.

Wei Xiao Bei felt that if he put his life on the line, he was able to kill 1-star and 2-star creatures. In the case of the 3-star creature, Thousand Eyed Devil, he felt that he would not even be able to retaliate.

It was impossible for him to even approach it.

The Evil Thoughts attack had almost killed him. Even Wei Xiao Bei’s trump card, releasing electricity, was not enough to steer clear from the negative effect.

Is this the strength of a 3-star Terror Class Creature?

From this, Wei Xiao Bei had roughly made an outline. Inside The Dust World, a creature’s strength was expressed by the star rating. Moreover, the star ranking was further divided into the three levels – Normal, Elite, Terror.

As for ranks higher than Terror Class, he had not seen any yet, so he did not know.

However, what is this Evil Thoughts Possessor?

How was it possible that it received an attack once I reached the street?

Previously, those black beetles were not able to take a single step in the street.

This street made him feel as if it was a safety zone. Those that were stronger than a certain level were probably not able to enter it.

This point allowed him to finally understand the circumstances revolving around the black beetles and the Thousand Eyed Devil.
