After a while, Wei Xiao Bei’s brows bunched together even tighter.

He had seen the path the Mutated Farmer’s Market was taking to the plaza. He was planning to let the Mutated Farmer’s Market fight with the strange house and benefit from their conflict, or at least learn something from it.

Yet, after activating [Precise Calculation] the path the Mutated Farmer’s Market was taking didn’t pass through the plaza. It was only moving within a hundred meters of the plaza.

He didn’t know what the strange house would do to the Mutated Farmer’s Market at a distance of one hundred meters, though it meant the execution of his plan would be quite troublesome.

Both parties might end up safe and sound.

This wasn’t what Wei Xiao Bei wanted.

It didn’t help that he was starting to feel a slight hunger.

He knew that this was an indicator that the side effect of releasing the arcs of electricity was in full force.

In fact, the effect of [Intermediate Power Burst] and divine power from Divine White Mist Great Spear were also close to dispersing.

Once that happened, Wei Xiao Bei would be in an extremely weakened state.

His choices were pretty limited in such a situation, all he could do was escape.

Wei Xiao Bei didn’t want the strange house and Mutated Farmer’s Market to remain completely untouched.

He scanned his surroundings and noticed a central air conditioner hidden behind a parapet atop the building.

The central air conditioner’s condenser was similar to a residential air conditioner’s condenser but the big difference was that it didn’t have a closed structure. The coolant was in a liquid state. When it circulated through the condenser, hot water would be sprayed at the cooling materials. Through the exchange of heat and subsequent evaporation, its cooling effect was much greater than a residential condenser. The central condenser was usually made out of steel and copper plates.

Basically, it was just a giant metal object.

Wei Xiao Bei rushed toward it.

The outer shell of the condenser was rusty, but the copper plates inside it weren’t, though there was some dust inside the gap.

The air released by Wei Xiao Bei’s swift movements blew away the dust.

Yet, Wei Xiao Bei did not care about the flying dust. He extended his arm and grabbed the base of the condenser, exerting his strength.

The condenser was extremely stable, being able to endure a level ten gale wind.

But with Wei Xiao Bei’s strength removing it was like peeling the sticker off an apple.

With just a body height of around 1.7 meters, he lifted the four-meter tall condenser away from the building. He then lifted it above his head and jumped to another building nearby. This scene stunned Shan Bing once again, who had finally finished vomiting.

Shan Bing mouth opened wide, and he was unable to close it for a while.

Seeing Wei Xiao Bei god-like performance at a close distance had a much greater impact on him than when he saw it standing atop a building far away.

Shan Bing was seriously considering kneeling down to Wei Xiao Bei.

He suddenly felt that his previous life as a prodigal son was too boring. Car racing, clubbing, and fooling around with girls were worthless in front of the scene before him.

Only a life like Wei Xiao Bei’s could truly be considered glorious.

Of course, he knew that he would never be able to risk his life like Wei Xiao Bei.

Though perhaps he could become his apprentice and learn from him.

While he leaned on the parapet thinking, Wei Xiao Bei had already reached the top of the other building.

The two buildings were located on the same side of the street and the distance between them was less than twenty meters. With Wei Xiao Bei’s currently enhanced strength, he could easily leap over the gap with a minimal run-up.

One building, two buildings, three buildings.

Wei Xiao Bei quickly jumped between buildings. He landed on top of smaller buildings and broke into the middle levels of tall buildings. Dust and rocks sputtered about, and his surroundings looked like a complete disaster.

Any buildings that Wei Xiao Bei went on faced a force similar to a crashing rocket, as no matter where he landed the ground was smashed by the impact of landing.

If not for Wei Xiao Bei’s fast reaction speeds, he would have stomped through the top of a building and fell to its lower level a few times.

Eventually, Wei Xiao Bei reached a building adjacent to the plaza. After calculating, he leaped high and threw the condenser. The condenser spun in the air and flew toward his target like a bomb.

An object like the condenser wasn’t built to fly in the air as it faced too much friction. Yet, with Wei Xiao Bei’s great strength the condenser flew forward. After it reached its highest point it fell quickly, corresponding with the parabola-like throwing arc Wei Xiao Bei had calculated.

The end zone of the condenser was the Mutated Farmer’s Market, which was still slowly moving and consuming buildings.

Whoosh!

As the condenser had a hollow interior and ventilation surrounding it, the swishing sound it made flying quickly through the air was extremely sharp.

Of course, even if the condenser fell silently the Mutated Farmer’s Market would still notice it.

Facing the falling condenser, the Mutated Farmer’s Market reacted immediately. The cement floor that was slowly moving forward paused, as though time had stopped.

The next moment, a layer of golden light had formed above the Mutated Farmer’s Market. The condenser fell right on top of it and attempted to break through it. The strong force behind it tried its best to pierce through the layer of golden light, but it failed to penetrate.

Eventually, when the force behind the condenser disappeared, the layer of golden light reflected the condenser back along its initial path with a force stronger than when it fell.

The scene was familiar to Wei Xiao Bei.

Wei Xiao Bei remembered last time, when he threw the steel object at it, the Mutated Farmer’s Market had formed a golden layer and reflected the steel object. Back then it made Wei Xiao Bei escape in a panic.

Now, however, Wei Xiao Bei did not bother with the reflected condenser. He was busy lifting another condenser from atop another office building. He lifted the condenser above his head and threw it toward the Mutated Farmer’s Market below him.

Wei Xiao Bei quickly realized that the top floor of all the office buildings had a central air-conditioner. He was wasting energy by carrying one from far away.

After every condenser was thrown, Wei Xiao Bei would change his position so that the Mutated Farmer’s Market couldn’t hit him with the reflected condenser. Although it broke the concrete floors at the top of the buildings, it didn’t harm Wei Xiao Bei at all.

Throwing one condenser after another aiming for the Mutated Farmer’s Market created many bomb-like effects, the condensers sinking into the layer of golden light before reflecting and absolutely decimating many of the surrounding buildings.

After throwing the final condenser, Wei Xiao Bei couldn’t help but sigh, turning and running toward the plaza.

The Mutated Farmer’s Market was indeed absurdly strong.

An attack like his would break the branches of the Big Tree Spirit and leave it heavily-wounded.

Yet, such a trick was totally useless against the Mutated Farmer’s Market as it could easily reflect it.

After facing the Wei Xiao Bei’s barrage, the Mutated Farmer’s Market was obviously furious.

Seeing that he was escaping, the Mutated Farmer’s Market immediately chased after him, its speed was much greater than before. The soft cement ground gushed forward like a strong tide, dragging the tall buildings it contained along.

The Mutated Farmer’s Market no longer had the appetite to consume the buildings in its way. It brought along the tall buildings that were part of it and squeezed into the street. The other parts brought the steel structure shed and flowed directly over the tall buildings in its way.

To be honest, the scene was astonishing.

If anyone had a video camera, shot the scene and brought it back to reality to make a fantasy movie, it would save a lot on visual effect costs.

The movie title could be “The City of Horror”. It would definitely sell.

Of course, even if the Mutated Farmer’s Market accelerated, it wouldn’t be able to catch Wei Xiao Bei.

After he escaped to the plaza, he climbed to the top of a building. He was feeling his power constantly decrease and was enduring the suffering that came from being in a weakened state.

Wei Xiao Bei couldn’t suppress his hunger anymore though. He took a few pieces of roast meat out from his Small Holding Bag and started to eat.

When Wei Xiao Bei stuffed the fifth piece into his mouth, the Mutated Farmer’s Market appeared at the edge of the plaza.

As mentioned earlier, the scene of it appearing at the edge of the plaza was indeed spectacular.

Grey cement gushed from the streets and the tops of buildings. The cement streets were covered with another layer of cement wherever it moved. The cement was constantly wiggling forward like a rising tide.

However, the parts of Mutated Farmer’s Market that rushed into the plaza stopped quickly.

Less than fifty meters in front of it was a fountain and a house on the plaza.

Of course, it wasn’t the fountain that made the Mutated Farmer’s Market pause.

When the Mutated Farmer’s Market noticed the strange house, it became extremely careful. The front part of the cement floor started to surge. It slowly stacked up, forming a cement wall with a height of six meters.
