Chapter 14: The Icicle Superpowered

Editor: Atlas Studios

When Du Gang returned to the female dormitory, the place was already in a state of utter chaos.

The wooden door, was utterly incapable of stopping these insects - hiding under the blanket, on the other hand, was simply an ostrich's tactic.

Almost every dormitory door had half the body of an insect sticking outside, and inside was the horrendous sound of their gnawing.

Du Gang shook his head in dismay.

He had taken note of what his classmates had said.

But it was no longer peace time, if one wanted to survive, they needed to cast away their illusions and maintain absolute rationality.

They had a chance of surviving, if they had come out then, even if it meant sacrificing himself, he would have bought them some time, but they chose to stay in the dormitory. He was not the savior of the world, even if he turned into a giant and held off the insects, once time was up, not only would they die, but he would be done for too.

So, from the very beginning, he had made it clear that all his actions should prioritize his own survival, saving people also has its limits. He waited in the hallway for one minute, even tried to buy them some more time, but unfortunately, he gave them a chance, they didn't catch it, if he had dawdled any longer, he would have been finished.

The layout of the male and female dormitories was more or less the same, room 605 was the same too. Du Gang quickly found Mu Chuxue's dormitory. At first glance, there was also half of a beetle's body at her doorstep.

"Ah, such a shame!"

Du Gang sighed, didn't want to go in anymore, and turned around to leave.

Just then—"Du Gang…"

A very faint voice came from inside.

It was Mu Chuxue!

Although he hadn't interacted with her much, he could recognize her voice clear as day.

She wasn't dead?

Du Gang halted, quickly transformed into a giant, then moved forward and grabbed the Black Beetle at his feet, pulling it out.

There was no struggle as he expected, this Black Beetle just like a lifeless heavy object, was directly pulled out by him.

What's the situation?

After pulling out the entire body of this Black Beetle, he realized this bug was indeed dead. There was a hole of about three centimeters in its head.

Looking inside, Mu Chuxue was sitting on the bed, cocking her head to look at him.

Du Gang dropped the beetle in his hand, returned to his normal size, and walked in.

"Are you alright?"

At this point, Mu Chuxue looked as pale and weak as if she was suffering from a severe bout of menstrual cramps, slumped down on the bed. Hearing his question, she looked towards a certain direction.

Following her gaze, Du Gang promptly found an "ice spike" embedded in the wall. The part protruding outside was already more than a dozen centimeters long.

An ice spike? A superpower?

Almost immediately, these words came to his mind.

He took a step forward, pulled the ice spike out, and then realized that in the hole in the wall, there was a source energy crystal emitting a red glow.

He understood now. Mu Chuxue really had awakened a superpower, and it happened to be very clever in ejecting the Source Energy Crystals in the brain of the Black Beetle, causing its direct death.

Du Gang took out the red source energy crystal and put it away.
