The bird became Wei Xiao Bei’s height the moment it finished eating the flesh shards. Soon, it trembled for a moment, then its temperature rose. In less than a second, its dried up feathers once again became fluffy.
This cyan bird appeared to be very fierce. Moreover, its single leg made it appear even fiercer.
However, it stood obediently in front of Wei Xiao Bei.
Wei Xiao Bei impatiently threw a [Status Appraisal] on its body.
After its body size increased, its status had also increased.
It was now a normal 2-Star Creature. Its strength, agility, and vitality had changed, but its awareness and intelligence had stayed the same while its charm had decreased.
In its special skills, the [High Temperature] had increased to 200 degrees. Even Wei Xiao Bei could feel the heatwave.
His [Flame Resistance] could decrease fire damage from temperatures below 300 degrees by 90%. However, it was not complete immunity.
This High-Temperature Bird was not bad. Wei Xiao Bei was a lot more satisfied. He originally wanted a bird that could fly while sustaining his weight.
However, the High-Temperature Bird was modulated to its peak.
Wishing to make it even stronger would probably require him to level up his Fledgling Life Altar.
Afterward, Wei Xiao Bei filled up the flesh storage and began to experiment.
He had bred a few more High-Temperature Birds and modulated all of them. In the end, he found the one with the best quality-price ratio.
When modulating the High-Temperature Bird, the optimal way was to use fifty pieces of flesh so the bird that appears would half as tall as a human person. Its status was not bad as it was a 1-Star Elite Creature, but it was already on par with a 2-Star Creature.
In truth, aerial type creatures had a natural advantage against land-based creatures.
After finding this optimum, Wei Xiao Bei used the remaining Dang Kangs to create large amounts of High-Temperature Birds.
Naturally, even if the modulation only used fifty pieces of flesh, the consumption was not small.
After optimally breeding fifty High-Temperature Birds, the Dang Kang corpse was nothing but ashes.
These High-Temperature Birds were under Wei Xiao Bei’s control, but even if he used [Precise Calculation] he could at most control twenty of them.
Luckily, the High-Temperature Birds possess a certain amount of intelligence. They could follow simple orders such as attacking targets and escaping.
This already made Wei Xiao Bei very satisfied.
Next, Wei Xiao Bei wanted to find some monsters to test these High-Temperature Birds’ combat capabilities.
Finding a Ba Serpent, a Dang Kang, or a Monster Tree was simply sending them to their deaths. This did not need to be thought over.
Wei Xiao Bei simply continued downstream to see if he could find a much more suitable creature.
As he went downstream, the scenery became more and more desolate. In the end, the magnificence of Bai Ta Hills had disappeared, replaced with the dusty ground.
Just when Wei Xiao Bei was about to return, information from a High-Temperature Bird that he sent forward as a scout entered his mind.
Church?
The creatures created by the Life Altar had a simple spiritual link with him. They could transmit their thoughts to him.
There was no doubt that at this moment, the image that appeared in Wei Xiao Bei’s mind was the church that had ran away after fighting with the Shing Wong Temple.
Naturally, the information that was sent back was a bit fuzzy. He needed to personally see it up close to be able to get to the bottom of things.
Wei Xiao Bei immediately increased his speed.
However, he soon witnessed the first battle that the High-Temperature Birds fought after their birth.
A Gargoyle had flown over from afar. The first thing Wei Xiao Bei did was dig a hole to bury himself.
In truth, according to his observation, the vision of the Gargoyle was normal compared to the acute vision of bird-type creatures. It was probably only at the level of normal humans. However, they possessed a powerful infrared vision that humans did not have.
In general, as long as the enemy had body heat, it would be difficult to escape their gaze.
Thus, Wei Xiao Bei dug a hole. That way, the High-Temperature Birds could cover the Gargoyle’s vision.
Wei Xiao Bei did not want the Dark Priest to notice his approach. It that happened, there was no doubt that the Dark Priest would mark him as a target.
On the other hand, the High-Temperature Birds assembled into formation. They let out large amounts of infrared rays from the heat of their bodies. This made it easy to attract the Gargoyle’s attention.
The thought process of a Gargoyle was quite stiff. Perhaps this was because of the order of the Dark Priest was to investigate.
As a result, when it saw the High-Temperature Birds it did not retreat nor advance.
Seeing that the Gargoyle did not leave, Wei Xiao Bei felt his headache.
The Dark Priest’s strength was not weaker than his. On the other hand, the strange church could increase his strength. In this situation, Wei Xiao Bei would not be able to see through his enemy’s true strength. His only option was to use [Status Appraisal], but if he did so, he would be exposed immediately. Perhaps the Dark Priest might even chase after him to the ends of the world.
Attack!
Since the Gargoyle was not coming over or leaving and only guarding the place, Wei Xiao Bei became angry as he gave the orders to attack.
Following the order, the High-Temperature Birds formed an arc as they outflanked the Gargoyle.
The Gargoyle appeared irritated. It completely changed its state as it launched an attack on the birds.
Whether it was the High-Temperature Birds or the Gargoyle, the two sides’ mode of attack was the same, fighting in close combat.
Naturally, if encountered with a normal creature, the temperature of the birds would be useful, but against the stone body of the Gargoyle, it was ineffective.
The biggest High-Temperature Bird was the fastest. In an instant, it had knocked against the Gargoyle and let out a deep sound. In an instant, the bird had let out blood and the Gargoyle’s body spluttered out rocks.
The High-Temperature Bird had pecked it 7-8 times, while the Gargoyle had used its two claws to attack the bird.
In the battle between both sides, both had been injured.
Among them, the one that took the most damage was the High-Temperature BIrd. Two deep three inch wounds appeared on its abdomen. The body of the Gargoyle was simply too hard as only two white dents had been left on it.
However, this was just the initial wave.
Next, the High-Temperature Birds attacked as a group and fiercely pecked at the Gargoyle.
Although the Gargoyle spiritedly attacked, it was insufficient in front of the High-Temperature Birds. For a moment, the rock fragments sputtered everywhere.
Moreover, Wei Xiao Bei let the High-Temperature Birds attack the Gargoyle’s joints and wings. Just like that the High-Temperature Birds fiercely attacked, causing the Gargoyle to grow weaker.
Even a steel cast robot would be weak in the joints, let alone a Gargoyle.
If they had attacked the Gargoyle’s stomach, it would take more than a thousand pecks for them to succeed in destroying it. If it was the joints, it would take them only around a hundred pecks.
The wings were even weaker. It had easily been destroyed under the ferocious attacks of the birds, causing the Gargoyle to fall to the ground.
The Gargoyle had a special ability. Once it landed on the ground, it could completely turn to stone and recover its wounds. Moreover, its defense would increase a lot.
However, the Gargoyle never imagined that the High-Temperature Birds would not let it go. They chased after it like mad and continued to peck.
These High-Temperature Birds crowded together, making the Gargoyle unable to see Wei Xiao Bei’s figure.
Soon, the High-Temperature Birds dispersed and flew up to the sky.
Wei Xiao Bei had already got out of the hole and taken a look. The Gargoyle had been crushed into powder. The stones left behind were less than the size of a fist.
What surprised Wei Xiao Bei was that his evolution points had increased from 1660 to 1740, increasing it by 80 points.
This was something Wei Xiao Bei never imagined. These High-Temperature Birds killing the Gargoyle had given him evolution points.
Wei Xiao Bei immediately thought of something good as he chuckled.
Indeed. Once he leaves the Dust Wolrd, the High-Temperature Birds would find their food. Then, he might be able to earn evolution points even without entering the Dust World.
Naturally, many elements needed to be observed to see if this could work. One problem was whether the High-Temperature Birds would stay in the Dust World or not once he leaves the Dust World.
Naturally, this was something to worry about later.
Since these High-Temperature Birds could gain evolution points for him, Wei Xiao Bei let the High-Temperature Birds open a path for him to prevent him from being exposed as he slowly advanced.
On his way, the birds had only encountered three Gargoyles.
However, this was not bad. He had freely obtained 240 evolution points.
After closing in on the church, Wei Xiao Bei dug into the dirt and only exposed his eyes.
There was no doubt that it was the Black Church. Whether it was the shape or the materials, they were all the same.
The Black Church was erected on the ash-colored ground. Looking at it created a beautiful snowy scenery. However, as the scene was accompanied by Gargoyles that were flying from time to time, it made it extremely gloomy and terrifying.
There were no small mountains in the surroundings. Those Gargoyles would bring back soil from far away. On the other hand, the Dark Priest was busying himself in the small plaza, using magic to create more Gargoyles.
