127: Combination talents

It's him!

That terrifying devil, he actually caught up?

Antonia trembled all over, stomped on the accelerator, and picked up her weapon again.

It was hard to imagine, the sudden speed was so fast.

It was several times faster than a sports car, rapidly closing in on them.

Whoosh.

Whoosh.

Whoosh!

Three smoke grenades were fired at Lin Tianwei.

Antonia wasn't that naive; she knew that an opponent impervious to armor-piercing explosive rounds would be completely unaffected by ordinary attacks.

So she only hoped the smoke would obscure Lin Tianwei's Vision Field, buying them some time to escape.

However, she was still a bit too naive.

Not to mention that Lin Tianwei possessed a powerful Vision Field Talent, making it impossible for smoke grenades to affect his sight.

Just his various miraculous detection methods were in no way inferior to visual detection.

Watching Lin Tianwei get closer and closer, Antonia knew that if this continued, she would only face death.

Thinking of this, she gritted her teeth and looked at Galina in the passenger seat.

As long as Galina could buy her some time, she could escape the Tiger King's clutches.

Antonia said, "Galina, for the sake of our sisterhood, please try your best to hold off the Tiger King for me."

"Don't worry, I'll take good care of Leopoldo for you; you can rest in peace!"

She immediately opened the car window and threw her out.

Under Antonia's immense strength, Galina's body, like a giant rock, flew towards Lin Tianwei.

Galina's face was filled with despair.

She never expected that she would be betrayed by Antonia.

Powerless, she could only be swept by the strong winds, flying towards Lin Tianwei against her will.

If she fought with all her might, she might have been able to last one or two rounds against Lin Tianwei's claws.

But facing Antonia, who betrayed her, how could she possibly be so self-sacrificing?

She immediately retracted all her strength, meeting Lin Tianwei's attack with her flesh and blood body.

Instant kill.

An undoubted instant kill.

The speed of the charge, combined with Lin Tianwei's inherent powerful strength.

Killing Galina was a simple matter.

"Ding, congratulations to the host for killing a new target."

"Ding, Talent extraction successful. The host has obtained the Talent: Transformation (Supernatural)."

"Ding, please confirm whether the host wishes to use this Talent."

"Shēn Huà Wàn Wàn (Transform into All Things) (Supernatural): A Supernatural-level Talent that allows precise control of every cell in the body to transform into any desired appearance."

"Note: The greater the transformation, the greater the energy consumed."

"Repeated drastic transformations may cause irreversible effects on the body. Please use with caution."

Lin Tianwei frowned.

If it weren't for the last note, this would undoubtedly be a very powerful Talent.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it the Legendary shapeshifting spell.

However, with such severe consequences.

Lin Tianwei needed to carefully consider whether he should use this Talent.

Refuse to use!

After a moment of hesitation, Lin Tianwei unhesitatingly threw this Talent into the warehouse.

Keeping it as an upgrade material, or for use at a critical moment, would be a good choice.

The moment Galina died, Lin Tianwei felt something attach itself to him.

Although harmless, it seemed to be some kind of tracking method.

The ability of a Mental Power Talent.

Lin Tianwei instantly made a judgment in his heart.

With his Mental Power, although he wasn't very skilled yet, making simple judgments was still very easy.

However, he didn't care about this tracking method.

Tracking him?

It didn't matter if they had the strength.

Otherwise, it would just be sending themselves to their deaths, becoming nutrients for Lin Tianwei to grow stronger.

The most important thing now was to pursue Antonia, who was trying to escape.

Lin Tianwei was very interested in her Teleportation Talent.

Useless!

Through the rearview mirror, Antonia saw that Galina hadn't even delayed Lin Tianwei for a moment, and couldn't help but curse under her breath.

However, at this moment, she couldn't care about anything else.

She picked up her weapon and unleashed a barrage of attacks on the pursuing Lin Tianwei.

Unfortunately, such trash attacks couldn't cause Lin Tianwei the slightest harm.

They couldn't even slow down Lin Tianwei's pace.

Antonia could only watch helplessly as Lin Tianwei got closer and closer, closer and closer.

The scent of death assailed her.

Antonia instantly collapsed, ready to beg for mercy.

But then she saw a tiger's claw growing larger and larger in her eyes.

Until it completely buried her in darkness!

"Ding, congratulations to the host for killing a new target."

"Ding, Talent extraction successful. The host has obtained the Talent: Teleportation (Supernatural)."

"Ding, please confirm whether the host wishes to use this Talent."

"Teleportation (Supernatural): A Supernatural-level Talent. After setting a mark on a target with powerful Mental Power, consuming Mental Power allows for instantaneous exchange of positions with the target."

"Note: The mark may cause some slight impact on the target's mental state."

"The more similar the target is to oneself, the less Mental Power is consumed."

Use!

Lin Tianwei used this Talent without hesitation.

It seemed to be just a simple position-swapping Talent.

It even required setting a mark in advance, with many usage restrictions.

But in reality, this Talent was much stronger than Transformation.

Whether for sneak attacks or escapes, it was a truly invincible Talent.

Most importantly, this Talent could be combined with other Talents to produce unexpected effects.

Bloodline + Oviposition + Teleportation?

Perhaps he could use these three Talents to achieve infinite Teleportation and instantaneous movement operations.

Producing effects similar to divine abilities.

Since Teleportation determines consumption based on similarity, his Oviposition Talent, or his cloned self, would definitely be able to minimize consumption.

As long as he had enough targets and marked them in advance, he would be able to easily perform Teleportation with the lowest consumption.

However, Lin Tianwei still couldn't overcome the hurdle in his heart.

Oviposition, for a male tiger, still caused a dual physiological and psychological discomfort.

Moreover, even if Lin Tianwei wanted to operate that way, he couldn't.

Because he didn't have that much energy.

Currently, he didn't even have enough energy to grow to his complete form.

So how could he talk about consuming more energy to achieve the goal of oviposition?

Therefore, this idea was destined to be temporarily shelved.

Only when the time was right could it unleash its unique brilliant light.

After simply dealing with the B-level Awakened team led by Galina.

Without lingering, Lin Tianwei chose to return directly.

Unless necessary, he would not consume energy that could help him grow.

Eating and sleeping, sleeping and eating, this was the life he needed to live now.

He only hoped that those annoying humans wouldn't always come to bother him.

Although they were very enthusiastic, always wanting to give Lin Tianwei Talents.

But Lin Tianwei still felt that growing into his complete form as soon as possible was the most important thing for him right now.

Infinitely far away.

The moment Galina died, a young black man was greatly shocked.

He quickly asked his teammate, saying, "Talov, just now, did I have an illusion?"

This was a five-person Awakened team.

It was one of only three A-level Awakened teams.

Every member was an elite among elites in the Awakened.

Before them, a gigantic Awakened Beast lay on the ground.

It looked like a giant lizard.

This was the target of their mission.

After expending great effort, they finally completed the kill and received the reward for this mission.

Facing Leopoldo's question, Talov fell silent.

Although reality was cruel, this was the truth.

However, he didn't want to directly tell Leopoldo this cruel truth.

He could only remain silent.

Yet Talov's silence seemed to be the best answer, directly telling Leopoldo the answer.

Leopoldo was greatly shaken, muttering, "How is this possible? How could Galina die?"

"Her teammate is the super escape artist Antonia; how could they die?"

...After repeating it a few times, Leopoldo finally accepted this reality and said in a deep voice, "Talov, is your Mental Power sensing still active?"

Talov was a Mental Power Talent user, possessing powerful Mental Power.

With his powerful Mental Power, he could accomplish many operations.

The Mental Power on Galina's body was his masterpiece.

Not only could he use it to determine if Galina was dead.

He could also leave a mark on the enemy to track the target.

Talov sighed and said, "Leopoldo, I understand your feelings."

“We will avenge you.”

“No matter who the enemy is, whether they hide at the ends of the earth or the corners of the sea,”

“I will make him die and be buried with Galina!”

Talov spoke the cruelest words in the calmest voice.

In a sense, Galina’s death was a good thing for the entire team.

Even the powerful Leopoldo would not be half-hearted or think about leaving the team.

But to win people’s hearts, Talov still decided to avenge Galina.

Only then would Leopoldo be completely at his disposal.

He did not know what powerful enemy he would provoke because of this.

A mark?

That was just bait Lin Tianwei used for fishing!

—

Better late than never.

The news of the A-rank Awakened team’s complete annihilation reached Pato’s ears directly.

He found it hard to believe, yet also felt it was within reason.

After all, the Tiger King had always been capable of doing unexpected things.

“Perhaps we should use missiles again.”

“Use the power of more missiles to directly flatten that farm and completely eliminate the Tiger King!”

A thought suddenly flashed through Pato’s mind, and he spoke it aloud.

Derek’s scalp tingled when he heard this, and he advised, “Pato, don’t do such a foolish thing.”

“The outside world is not like our Ismail Institute; anything you want to do requires approval.”

“Unless everyone realizes the terror of the Tiger King, that he is an existence capable of overthrowing the entire America,”

“Otherwise, our request will simply not be approved.”

Pato paused, then said, “All signs indicate that the Tiger King is exactly this kind of existence. What more evidence is needed?”

“Those people, those people only see profit in their eyes and cannot see the hidden risks of his existence.”

“Damn it, the moment the Tiger King escaped from the Ismail Institute, we completely lost control of him.”

Seeing Pato regain his composure, Derek also breathed a sigh of relief and advised, “Besides, the plan to bomb with missiles is not cost-effective.”

“Each missile is expensive, and extensive bombing would be too costly for our Ismail Institute.”

After a pause, a trace of helplessness flashed in Derek’s eyes as he said,

“Moreover, we cannot guarantee that an increased number of missiles would be able to kill the Tiger King.”

“After all, he once withstood four missiles and easily survived.”

“Not only that, but he also underwent a Impure World Reincarnation (Reanimation Jutsu) and became even more powerful.”

Pato was immediately stunned.

That’s right.

Who could guarantee that more missiles would definitely kill the Tiger King?

After a moment of thought, Pato said indignantly, “Are we just going to watch the Tiger King run rampant,”

“And grow stronger little by little?”

Derek shook his head and said, “Of course, we can’t just ignore the Tiger King.”

“But we need to manage him with a different method and approach.”

“Increase the commission, directly raising the reward for the bounty mission to 100 million mane.”

“An additional 100 million mane for capturing him alive!”

“Such a high price will inevitably attract powerful Awakened to take action.”

“It might even tempt those powerful Awakened hidden among the populace.”

“In this way, the matter becomes simpler.”

“The Tiger King will certainly be disturbed by these Awakened, losing time to grow and develop.”

“At that time, either they kill the Tiger King, and the matter ends there.”

“We pay a bounty of one or two hundred million mane, and if we can obtain a sample of the Tiger King, it’s worth it.”

“Or they are completely annihilated.”

“This incident will inevitably attract a lot of attention.”

“Then, let alone missiles, even more powerful weapons might be used.”

“Most importantly, by then our Ismail Institute will be out of it, and our responsibility will be greatly reduced.”

“After all, we warned them before; it’s just that those foolish people didn’t believe it!”

After hearing Derek’s words, Pato immediately clapped and said, “Brilliant, brilliant!”

“This is simply a plan that kills three birds with one stone!”

“Derek, you truly are a genius.”

“I will immediately raise the bounty on the Tiger King to 300 million mane, with an additional 200 million mane for capturing him alive.”

“This is much cheaper than a whole bunch of missiles.”

“I believe the Tiger King will be very fond of the gift we send him.”

...300 million mane! 500 million mane!

This was the highest bounty mission ever.

As soon as the mission was released, it immediately caused a sensation among the Awakened.

That was over a hundred million mane.

As long as they could get this money, countless people could easily achieve their dreams.

However, the warning message about the A-rank Awakened team’s complete annihilation deterred most Awakened without sufficient strength.

They looked at the seemingly small and cute tiger on the bounty mission with some disbelief.

They could not have imagined that he possessed such terrifying strength.

But this warning message could only scare off ordinary Awakened.

More Awakened, with Ismail’s encouragement, set their sights on Lin Tianwei.

In their eyes, Lin Tianwei was not a tiger.

But layers upon layers of mane.

Looking out, it was completely endless.

In a certain tavern.

Leopoldo looked at the warning in the bounty mission and couldn’t help but clench his fists.

Galina was dead.

She died at the hands of this seemingly harmless Tiger King.

He had to avenge her.

Thinking of this, Leopoldo looked nervously at Talov.

The huge reward represented an extremely high difficulty.

The Ismail Institute was not a benevolent organization.

Since they could offer such a high reward, it naturally meant that Lin Tianwei was worth that price.

With such immense risk, whether Talov would keep his promise to help him was an unknown!

Seemingly understanding what Leopoldo wanted to express, Talov patted his shoulder and said, “Don’t worry, how could I back down?”

“This time, we will not only avenge you, but also bring back that huge reward.”

“Notify everyone, we depart tonight.”

Under a heavy reward, there must be brave men!

Undoubtedly, Talov was tempted by the bounty.

In his opinion, his team was the strongest A-rank Awakened team; dealing with a tiger would be a piece of cake, wouldn’t it?

As for why they were departing tonight, it was, of course, to seize ownership of Lin Tianwei.

Such an enticing reward would attract many flies.

If they arrived late and someone else got there first, it would truly be a heavy loss.

Hearing Talov’s words, Leopoldo was overjoyed.

In his opinion, with his team taking action, killing Lin Tianwei was a foregone conclusion.

Galina, wait for me.

I will definitely avenge you!

—

In the villa.

Ouro finally woke up from his coma and immediately began searching for his family.

Who could understand his feelings when he saw people transform?

His family instantly disappeared, and in their place appeared those two vicious women.

They looked panicked, covered in wounds, completely different from their arrogant demeanor before.

Especially Galina, that wound like shattered porcelain looked terrifying.

“What did you do to my family?!”

Ouro screamed hysterically.

But Antonia knocked him out with a single hand chop.

If it weren’t for the urgency of the situation, she would have definitely eliminated this guy who dared to provoke her.

“Dad / Husband, you’re awake!”

Two caring voices sounded, and seeing his wife and daughter unharmed, Ouro breathed a sigh of relief.

He then asked, “What exactly happened?”

Gerry said, still shaken, “I don’t know what happened either.”

“I was in a daze and did many things involuntarily.”

“When I finally regained my freedom, I was met with an incredibly powerful attack.”

“It was a striped tiger. Although its body wasn’t large, every strike had the power to destroy the world.”

“Just the wind it generated cut countless wounds on my body.”

“I thought I was surely going to die, but for some reason, the opponent held back.”

“Not only that, but a Giant Panda also healed me with a white light.”

“Otherwise, I might really not have been able to see you alive again.”
