It was quite a while after Du Gang left with a swarm of Black Beetles that the people in the dorm room breathed a sigh of relief.

“Those ‘roaches’ finally left!”

The visible lightness on everyone’s face spoke volumes about the intense pressure they felt while the ‘roaches’ were present.

“How, do you guys say, did Du Gang pull it off?”

Previously, because the ‘roaches’ were continually banging on the door from below, no one dared to ask. Now that Du Gang had left, someone finally spoke out.

“Yeah, he just grew bigger all of a sudden, and he also seems really powerful...”

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

For a moment, the whole dorm room came alive with chatter. Everyone seemed to be venting their previous fears by engaging in conversation.

“Do you think, could this have something to do with the apocalypse?”

Among those present were regular novel readers who suspected that Du Gang had maybe obtained some kind of superpower.

This remark stirred up a wave of excitement.

If that were true, then they too might have a chance to gain superpowers.

“It’s very likely. Before this, none of us had ever seen Du Gang grow bigger. We only saw it for the first time just now. Maybe he was just awakened to it!”

“Yeah, when Du Gang comes back, we have to ask him about his superpower.”

Some people had been wanting to ask Du Gang about his superpower for a while but didn’t dare to. Now, this question had suddenly become something everyone wanted to know.

An Ya frowned and said, “Enough. The ‘roaches’ are gone, you guys can leave now. There are too many people here, it’s suffocating!”

Upon hearing this, everyone also realized how hot and stuffy the air was, it even smelled of sour foot odor.

“It is indeed too hot, I’m heading back first, goodbye Teacher An!”

“I’m also leaving, goodbye Teacher An!”

Although An Ya was only responsible for two classes, almost all the students here knew her, so they all greeted her before leaving.

Only when all the students had left did An Ya curiously looked at Ma Li.

“Teacher, I live here too, Du Gang and I share a dorm room!”

With a loud noise, the Black Beetle was caught off guard. Seven or eight of its thick and spiked legs snapped, and its body was heavily smashed to the ground.

On the back of the beetle, a deep pit appeared eerily, like one left by a meteorite on the ground.

At the same time, a stream of dark green blood splashed out.

“Squeak!”

This Black Beetle began squeaking continuously, as if it were in excruciating pain.

Seeing that his attack had an effect, Du Gang was delighted. He seized the opportunity to continue his attack, wielded his pillar, targeted the beetle’s head, and struck down again.

“Bang!”

“Bang!”

This time, not only was there a sound of the pillar hitting the beetle, but also the sound of the pillar hitting the ground.

The head of the Black Beetle was instantly smashed by Du Gang, and there was green blood all over the place.

“I got one!”

At this moment, the other Black Beetles had also reached up to him. They all inclined their bodies, ready to charge at him.

Seeing this, Du Gang stomped the ground, “springing!” back onto the rooftop.

He gazed at the beetles below with fire in his eyes. Although his face was smeared with some green blood, there was an unmistakable excitement.

“Awesome!”

Killing seemed to ignite the violent factors hidden deep in his genes, causing his blood to boil!

After selecting a target, Du Gang shouted “Kill!”, jumped down from the top, hoisted the pillar, and forcefully smashed it towards the head of that Black Beetle.

With the experience of the first time, he directly aimed at the head for the second attack.

After accelerating with gravity, this strike was even more powerful than before.

“Bang!”, the head of this Black Beetle directly turned into green mist, with no chance of survival.

After succeeding again, he did not act recklessly.

With a powerful pop of his legs, he jumped back onto the rooftop.

Although he didn’t have much time left in his transformed state, it was more than enough to kill these few Black Beetles!

In less than three minutes, all eight Black Beetles that chased him had been killed, leaving decapitated bodies scattered all over the ground.

What surprised Du Gang was that these Black Beetles, even if just one was left, still showed no emotion of fear or escape. They maintained an extreme desire for him to the end!
