Reannie, on the contrary, showed a little hesitation in her eyes but became firm after listening to Wei Xiao Bei’s command. She walked over holding the bloody cavalry sword.

These Carthaginian soldiers were really made in the Dust World as they continued showing hostile intention even in this situation.

If it was a human in the real world, the person might be begging for their life.

Until Reannie chopped off the third head, the Carthaginian soldiers did not beg once. They even glared fiercely at her. It appeared that if they still had the strength, they might have jumped up and bit Reannie.

Seeing Reannie being so decisive, Tasopulo’s mouth widened in surprise.

Wei Xiao Bei said softly from the side, “Killing an enemy in this place can power you up. You know about this, right? I can only give you so much help.”

Listening to Wei Xiao Bei’s words, Tasopulo did not hesitate anymore. He rushed in while carrying the cavalry sword. He swung his sword, and heads were separated from their necks one by one.

The quality of these cavalry swords was bad. Before the heads of the Carthaginian soldiers were chopped off completely, Reannie and Tasopulo’s cavalry swords broke. In the end, they had to grab a javelin covered in blood and stab each of them.

Actually, when Tasopulo and Reannie were killing these soldiers, they had one thought: They only killed them to reduce their pain.

Yes. That must be the case! Looking at their painful expressions... it must be the case.

Their thoughts were similar.

This was not wrong.

Of course, if Wei Xiao Bei knew their thoughts, it’s uncertain if he would feel grievance for being a bad guy.

When the last Carthaginian soldier was dead, both Tasopulo and Reannie became absent-minded. No matter how they lied to themselves, these soldiers died at their hands.

This was an undeniable fact.

For these two who grew up in a peaceful era, the impact was too much.

Seeing that their expressions were somewhat dull, Wei Xiao Bei could not help but sigh.

Did I over do it??

I think I did. If someone had forced me to do this, I am afraid that I would feel troubled as well.

He had to know that these soldiers were not the same as those monsters. They were certainly the soldiers of the Dust World who would kill people, but their appearance was human.

Killing a monster had a different psychological impact from killing a human.

It would appear that staying in the Dust World at the moment was not going to work for the both of them. They might even be killed due to distraction.

Besides, Wei Xiao Bei could clearly see a significant change in their physical quality when they killed the few dozen Carthaginian soldiers. Based on this, it was enough for them already.

After asking the place where they entered the Dust World and their contact information, Wei Xiao Bei let them leave the Dust World and go back to the real world.

Seeing their bodies gradually becoming transparent, Wei Xiao Bei quietly turned around and left.

The next moment, Wei Xiao Bei appeared at the main road outside of Paris.

Wei Xiao Bei had a question. He wanted an explanation on whether or not the different places in the Dust World were connected.

This was important. However, Wei Xiao Bei had not had the chance to verify this since he had entered the Dust World.

This time, after he entered the Paris Dust World, the armies in the Paris Dust World were only strong in firearms, so each individual’s actual strength was weak. This point made Wei Xiao Bei feel a little relief.

After Reannie and Tasopulo left the Dust World, Wei Xiao Bei was in a bad mood. He simply wanted to find out whether this matter was aligned with his own thoughts.

The city of Paris in the Dust World was not smaller than the one in the real world. It could be said that it was a bit bigger

Wei Xiao Bei went straight through. For all the armies he met, no matter if they were from England, France, Russia, Austrian, or Prussian; he killed them all.

After killing for a while, Wei Xiao Bei felt much better. A soldier gave 20 evolution points, an Officer gave 50 evolution points. After the massacre, Wei Xiao Bei earned 2000 evolution points. Thus, his evolution points increased to 6684 points.

This time, Wei Xiao Bei did not think to consume his evolution points. He just wanted to earn them. He would consume them gradually, if he had time in the future.

After having some fun, Wei Xiao Bei only met some lone soldiers that were separated from the army over the next half hour hour of his journey.

Until Wei Xiao Bei reached the Paris suburb, he did not see a single army troop.

It was as if the armies knew that a monster like Wei Xiao Bei had appeared and dodged him.

Actually, Wei Xiao Bei faintly got this feeling when he entered the Dust World.

Every time, he wanted to earn evolution points through a different kind of opportunity there would be some changes, and it affected his plan to earn evolution points.

These things could possibly be explained by a specific reason.

Either the Dust World was affected by certain rules, or Wei Xiao Bei had bad luck. It was more likely to be some specific reason that Wei Xiao Bei had not discovered yet.

No matter what, he could barely accept such a situation.

To be honest, Wei Xiao Bei felt that the Dust World was like a hodgepodge of chaos. Whether it was from mythology, novels, movies, and even in history; they all appeared in the Dust World. Such a world’s structure was strange. As a result, the situation that he encountered made sense.

The suburb of the city of Paris Dust World was formed by dilapidated farmlands.

Wei Xiao Bei did not stop for long on the farmlands, and then he kept moving.

After ten kilometers, Wei Xiao Bei stopped. In front of him,a world of gray extended to the ends of his vision. It seemed extremely desolate.

As for the world behind him, it might be in ruins but it still had buidlings and roads that made it looks like the world of man. However, from his foot onwards, there was nothing but gray land, as if the world had been cut clean by something. Moreover the gray land in front did not even have a single speck of dust.

Wei Xiao Bei hesitated. The world in front of him was more strange than the ruinous Dust World, as if they were two different worlds.

He had some vague premonition of danger. If he took this step, it was hard to know what would happen.

This warning made Wei Xiao Bei feel discomfort, as though if he stepped out, something that was out of his control might happen.

Wei Xiao Bei thought for a moment and took one step. The ground was solid.

He squatted and touched the ground, then exerted some forces abruptly, but he could not dig a hole on it. The ground’s hardness had completely exceeded his imagination.

He took another step and was prepared to retreat at any time.

Nothing happened.

His pace got quicker. Later, Wei Xiao Bei was walking swiftly, and Paris grew further away behind him.

In less than half an hour, he could not see Paris behind him.

To be honest, it was easy to get lost in such a flat world without any landmarks.

If Wei Xiao Bei did not have [Precise Calculation] together with a strong perception to keep locking down the direction of Paris, he might get lost in here.

After running for two hours, Wei Xiao Bei almost left the territory of Paris, according to his speed, but he did not see any buildings or creatures at all, and the surface was the same flat gray as before.

He gasped lightly, then he sat down. He took out a barbequed meat from the Small Holding Bag and ate slowly.

Wei Xiao Bei understood that he needed to do something to distract himself. It was easy to gain mental disorders in such a world. If it was a minor case, it only bewildered people; if it was a severe case, a person might lose his mind.

This was like an incredibly large gray cover, which held him inside. This made people have an inexplicable and immovable fear.

To be honest, Wei Xiao Bei hesitated about whether he should return or not as he did not know how big this world was.

After eating barbeque, he ran for another 20 minutes, then he decided to return.

Of course, Wei Xiao Bei already had intended to leave the Dust World and return to the real world. However, he felt danger after having the idea of doing it in the gray world.

He did not know what this danger was, but he did not dare take the risk.

On his way back, nothing happened.

When Wei Xiao Bei saw the dilapidated farm, he almost cried out.

People who did not experience all this had a difficult time imagining the horror of running for a few hours in such a gray world.

Finally, he was back. After Wei Xiao Bei left the gray world and entered the suburb of Paris his mind felt extremely exhausted, even if he did not experience any violent fighting. He had to find a farm to lay down inside. He closed his eyes, then went back to reality.

When Wei Xiao Bei opened his eyes again, he had returned to the hotel room in the real world.

He sighed in relief. He rubbed his brow, and then he used the desktop computer by the bedside provided by the hotel to search the mythology of France and Paris, but he did not find anything about the gray world.

There were only a few mythologies throughout France’s boundaries. There were a few mythologies about Charles the Great once in a while.

Some stories about magical bean children and an Erlking. But these stories were the trivial things of ancient humans. There was no traditional fable meanings, not to mention they did not have a fantasy story like the Celtic myth.
