Chapter 8: Hunting the Black Beetles

It took a while after Du Gang left with a group of black beetles before the students inside the dormitory breathed a sigh of relief.

“Those ‘cockroaches’ are finally gone!”

Judging from the much more relaxed look on everyone’s face, it was apparent that the “cockroaches” had put a lot of pressure on them.

“What do you guys think? How did Du Gang do it?”

Earlier, as the “cockroaches” had been pounding the entrance door, no one was foolish enough to ask. But now that Du Gang had left, someone finally couldn’t help but speak up.

“Yeah, his body got bigger all of a sudden, and his strength also became very powerful…”

“He jumped straight down from the sixth floor and surprisingly, nothing happened to him at all!”

All of a sudden, the whole dormitory was buzzing with noise as everyone spoke like they were venting their fears.

“Do you guys think that this will be an apocalypse?”

Many of the students present loved reading novels on a regular basis. They suspected that Du Gang had acquired some form of supernatural power.

As soon as these words were spoken, the crowd became thrilled.

If that was really the case, it meant that they would also have a chance to obtain supernatural powers.

“Most likely. None of us have ever seen Du Gang become bigger before. Maybe he has just awakened his powers!”

“Yeah, we must ask Du Gang about his supernatural power after he comes back later.”

Some people had long wanted to ask Du Gang about his supernatural power but didn’t dare to. And now, they had also made everyone else curious.

An Ya spoke with puckered brows: “Okay, the ‘cockroaches’ are gone now, so you guys should head back to your dorms too. Too many people here makes the room stuffy!”

Upon hearing her words, the students also agreed that the air in the room had heat waves. There was even a smell of rancid foot odor…

“It’s really too stuffy. I’ll head back first. See you later, Teacher An!”

“I’m going back too. Goodbye, Teacher An!”

Although An Ya had only led two classes, most of the students here knew who she was and bid goodbye before leaving.

When the group of students had left, An Ya then looked at Ma Li strangely.

“Teacher, I live here, in the same dorm as Du Gang!”

“Oh, it’s fine. I was just looking at your face because you seem a little red. Are you okay?”

Upon hearing her words, Ma Li stammered: “I-I’m… fine, Teacher! I’m just feeling a little hot!”

“Glad to hear that!”

An Ya casually responded. As a matter of fact, her mind wasn’t there. Compared to the students who were curious to know where Du Gang got his supernatural power from, she hoped that Du Gang could return safely.

An Zhong Military District.

This was, after all, the largest military district in China. Almost all of the surrounding spatial channels that appeared were under control within about half an hour.

The periphery of the 13 spatial channels were lined with a large number of artillery and laser weapons, enough to demolish any insects that crawled out of them.

“Reporting! The researchers have dissected the black beetle and found a crystal in its body that contains a very special energy!”

Yang Xiaotian looked at the photo. It was a spherical crystal the size of a fingernail with a crystal-clear surface. Inside, there was an unusually-dazzling red spot of light.

“What kind of energy is that?”

“According to their preliminary estimates, it may be related to dark matter. But we will only know the specific result after more tests…”

Yang Xiaotian nodded and continued to ask: “Did you get in touch with the Arctic Circle?”

“Not yet. The equipment is fine; it’s just that it can’t transmit signals. Experts deduced that it may also be related to dark matter…”

During the daytime, not all experts had fled to safety. There were still many scientific researchers who voluntarily stayed at the front line.

After Du Gang jumped on the roof of the laboratory building, he soon spotted the steel column that the student mentioned.

Is it a 20-centimeter thick and three to four-meter-long steel or iron column?

He couldn’t tell exactly what material it was made of. However, tempered glass roofs were usually supported by such columns, so he reckoned that its quality wouldn’t be too terrible.

Without much hesitation, he bent over, held the column up, and exerted some force.

The column didn’t deform!

“Quality’s good!”

He approved of it. Although he didn’t specifically measure how much strength he had, according to the previous instance, he was at least seven to eight times stronger.

After obtaining the weapon, Du Gang didn’t think much of it, but leaped down to the first floor and faced the black beetles that were crawling rapidly in the distance. He lifted the column in his hand and heavily swung it down at the one running the fastest.

BAM!

The black beetle was caught off guard and seven to eight of its thick, spiky legs instantly broke off. Its body was also slammed heavily to the ground.

On the back of its armor, a deep crater formed as if it were struck by a meteorite.

At the same time, dark greenish blood splattered.

Squeak! Squeak! Squeak!

The black beetle let out high-pitched cries as if it were in great pain.

After Du Gang saw the results, he was overjoyed. He hurriedly took advantage of this opening to pursue his attack, swinging the column heavily at the black beetle’s skull.

BAM!

Bang!

This time, it wasn’t only the sound of the column crushing the black beetle. There was also the deafening impact of the column colliding with the ground.

The black beetle’s skull was smashed by him, and dark greenish blood flowed all over the ground.

“One’s dead!”

At that moment, the other black beetles had arrived. One by one, they tilted up their bodies and pounced on him.

Du Gang saw the situation and quickly stomped his foot on the ground to spring himself up to the roof.

He looked at the insects below with a burning gaze. Although his face was stained with greenish blood, it couldn’t conceal his excitement.

“This feels awesome!”

The act of slaughtering had as if stimulated the hidden violent genes contained deep inside him, so much so that it aroused the fire in his blood!

After picking his target, Du Gang shouted: “You’re next!”

He leaped off the roof with the column in hand and smashed it down hard at the black beetle’s skull.

After the first experience, this time around, he directly aimed at its skull.

With the acceleration from gravity, the power brought by this heavy strike was even more terrifying than before.

BAM!

The black beetle’s skull was instantly pulverized into a green mist of blood. It couldn’t be more dead than this.

After Du Gang succeeded with this attack, he didn’t act too recklessly.

Using a little bit of force under his feet, he jumped back to the roof again.

Although his remaining transformation time wasn’t long, it was still more than enough to kill these black beetles!

Just like that, in less than three minutes, the eight black beetles that came after him had turned into severed carcasses that lay all over the place.

What amazed Du Gang was that the last black beetle neither showed any signs of fear nor did it frantically escape. On the contrary, it maintained an extreme and desperate desire in going after him!
