Exploding Locust Blade

Han Wu gathered a large amount of wood and lit a bonfire.

Holding a wooden stick, he hid in the shadows and quietly waited for insects drawn by the firelight.

Sure enough, under the bonfire's lure, quite a few insects flew over, each one as large as a fist.

Han Wu held the wooden stick and knocked them dead one by one.

He then handed their shells over to the Little Locust Blade to absorb.

After working for most of the night, the Little Locust Blade reached level 5. With every level gained, the Little Locust Blade's quality improved slightly, and its durability rose a little as well.

The improvement was slow, but extremely steady.

From far away, Han Wu spotted the wolves' pairs of gleaming green eyes.

He hurriedly climbed a tree.

The wolf pack soon arrived. More than a dozen wolves circled beneath the tree, waiting for Han Wu to fall and become a meal on their plates.

Han Wu held on tightly, yet he could feel his strength draining away. He would not be able to last much longer.

He had no choice but to take out the Little Locust Blade and control it remotely.

This way, killing a wolf only cost 1 point of durability.

After killing all the wolves, Han Wu's Little Locust Blade had 1 point of durability remaining. It could still maintain
