131: ideological transformation
Lin Tianwei's Mental Power was originally much stronger than that of ordinary people.
Under the enhancement of his Talent: Mental Strength Enhancement (Extraordinary), it reached a peak.
Combined with his Talent: Mental Power (Advanced), Lin Tianwei's perception was already enough to cover the entire farm.
Any movement that occurred on this land could not escape his Mental Power's perception.
This piece of land had completely transformed into his territory.
In Lin Tianwei's perception, Black and White was also engaged in a bitter battle at this moment.
However, this battle was about to come to an end.
Black and White, who had long been in a state of being dominated by Awakened, finally stood up this time.
Relying on powerful physical reserves.
The healing effect of Life Force.
The weakening effect of Death Force.
After a long struggle, it finally regained the disadvantage little by little.
Or perhaps, it was deliberately showing weakness.
After all, these two were not Agility-type Awakened known for their strength.
Compared to the Awakened Giant Panda, whose physical body was naturally stronger than humans, they simply couldn't gain an advantage.
Perhaps the only trouble was how to prevent them from escaping.
Showing weakness to the enemy, and then slowly eroding their strength.
This was the method Black and White came up with.
When these two Awakened realized they were not a match for Black and White and wanted to escape, they found it was already too late.
Black and White knocked them out with one paw each, completely stunning them to the ground.
Then, carrying them on its back, it continued to run into the distance.
It had not forgotten Lin Tianwei's command to escape.
Unless it received a command to return, it would simply not come back.
As for worrying?
Black and White would never have such a foolish thought.
Worried that the boss couldn't defeat these tiny humans?
It would be better to worry that the sun would crash into the earth.
Black and White would never do such a thing as groundless worrying.
"Come back."
Through the mental link, Lin Tianwei directly called Black and White back.
Black and White, who was escaping, showed joy on its face, and carrying the two Agility-type Awakened, it scurried back.
However, with its not-so-fast speed, the return trip alone would take at least fifteen minutes.
During this time, Lin Tianwei began to harvest the remaining enemies on the warehouse battlefield.
First was Leopoldo!
Although he suffered a terrifying injury.
However, under the powerful Self-healing Ability of an Awakened, he still managed to survive.
Although he had not yet regained the ability to move, he was at least half-conscious.
Then he saw an incredibly terrifying figure slowly walking towards him.
Yellow and black.
As if carrying the shadow of the Grim Reaper, it was approaching him little by little.
Leopoldo's eyes widened with fear.
He struggled to escape Lin Tianwei's attack range, but found it was completely futile.
His body simply could not respond to his thoughts.
He could only stay motionless in place, feeling death closing in step by step.
Leopoldo suddenly felt a little envious.
Envious of his teammates who were directly killed by Lin Tianwei.
At least they didn't have to experience this endless terror like him.
Bang.
Lin Tianwei swung a paw, completely ending Leopoldo's life.
"Ding, congratulations to the host for killing a new target."
"Ding, Talent extraction failed, the host obtained four thousand one hundred Talent Fragments."
The next target to deal with was Kelo, who had the ability to control plants.
Facing the steadily approaching Lin Tianwei, Kelo performed even worse than Leopoldo.
He directly buried his head in his hands, as if burying his head in the sand, and curled up into a ball on the ground.
He kept muttering: "Spare me, I'll do anything you want."
"As long as you spare my life, I can do anything for you."
He was even stimulated by the footsteps Lin Tianwei deliberately made, igniting the fear within him.
He was so scared that he lost control of his bladder.
The strong smell made the keen-nosed Lin Tianwei frown directly.
However, he did not act immediately, but instead pondered how to deal with Kelo.
Kill him directly and obtain his Talent for controlling plants?
This might be a very good choice.
But it was not the best way Lin Tianwei thought of to deal with Kelo.
Lin Tianwei already had enough offensive means, and he didn't really lack this one in front of him.
This world has mutated, and the best application for the Talent of controlling plants might be in cultivation.
Cultivating powerful Awakened Plants.
Or cultivating a large number of high-energy plants to provide Lin Tianwei with a large amount of energy.
As a special Talent, arranging Kelo in cultivation might be the best choice.
The only thing that bothered Lin Tianwei was how to ensure Kelo would be obedient.
As a former human, he would never underestimate the moral bottom line of humans.
Especially Little Black.
The scum among humans.
Perhaps killing him directly, once and for all, was the best option.
There was still a long time, and in the future, he might not be unable to acquire subordinates with similar Talents.
Thinking of this, Lin Tianwei extended his tiger paw, ready to completely end Kelo's life.
However, at this moment, he found that Kelo, who was curled up on the ground with his head in his hands, suddenly broke down.
He stood up directly, and in front of Lin Tianwei, like a fool, he began to gesticulate wildly.
Feigning madness?
Lin Tianwei looked at Kelo with some confusion.
His Mental Power directly erupted, like a steel needle, piercing into Kelo's mind.
Lin Tianwei only felt that it was a mess, a chaotic paste.
It seemed Kelo was indeed insane.
In a sense, waiting for death is far more terrifying than death itself.
Watching his companions die one by one, Kelo had long been prepared to face death.
Especially after seeing Leopoldo killed by Lin Tianwei, he no longer had any hope of survival.
It was just that the waiting period for death was a little too long.
During the time Lin Tianwei was thinking.
Kelo finally couldn't bear the immense pressure and directly collapsed, turning into this crazy and foolish state.
Excellent farm tool?
Out of nowhere, Lin Tianwei thought of this Talent.
Since it was a Talent that came from Little Black, it meant that this was actually a trait Little Black possessed.
If so, if he just used him as a farm tool named Kelo, would it meet Lin Tianwei's requirements?
This was also the best choice at present.
Anyway, Kelo himself had already promised that as long as he could live, he would do anything.
He believed that even if he hadn't completely gone mad, if being an excellent farm tool meant he could survive.
He would absolutely accept it with wild joy.
Thinking of this, Lin Tianwei unhesitatingly activated his Beast Spirit Talent.
Using the immense disparity in strength, he directly controlled Kelo's body, making him unable to move.
At the same time, his Mental Power transformed into sharp spikes, injecting his thoughts into Kelo's mind.
I am an excellent farm tool.
The only thing I need to do is cooperate with the worker using this farm tool, use my abilities, and excellently complete farm work for my master.
Working for my master is the meaning of an excellent farm tool's existence!
Under normal circumstances, even an Awakened would not be able to withstand such violent mental output.
His mind being completely destroyed, turning into nothingness, and completely collapsing, was Kelo's only option.
But his mind had already collapsed in advance.
Like a blank sheet of paper.
Instead, he was able to readily accept Lin Tianwei's mental infusion.
Before long, Kelo's lifeless eyes, as if a soul had been injected into them, gradually became spirited.
His mouth constantly moved, and a low voice followed:
"I am an excellent farm tool.
The only thing I need to do is cooperate with the worker using this farm tool, use my abilities, and excellently complete farm work for my master.
Working for my master is the meaning of an excellent farm tool's existence!"
...As Kelo repeatedly recited this sentence, his eyes gradually became firm.
His gaze towards Lin Tianwei also became incredibly fervent.
Kelo died.
Kelo was resurrected.
He came back to life as an excellent farm tool.
This identity was also the meaning of his existence.
The moment Lin Tianwei released his Beast Spirit control, Kelo performed a full prostration to Lin Tianwei.
His head was pressed against the ground, not even daring to look up at Lin Tianwei's body.
He said in an incredibly fervent voice: "Master, please let me do farm work, work hard at farm work."
"No matter what kind of farm work it is, I can complete it excellently for you."
"Even if you want to turn the land under your feet into high-quality farmland, I can do it for you."
It seems the transformation was very successful.
Lin Tianwei looked at Kelo, who was prostrate on the ground, with satisfaction.
After all, he couldn't personally do the farm work of catalyzing plants every day.
Having such a handy farm tool would save him a lot of time and effort.
At that time, as long as he found an excellent worker, he would be able to maximize the ability of this farm tool.
To cultivate a fertile piece of land for himself.
However, now was not the time.
Lin Tianwei ordered, "Now is not the time to use you."
"Clean yourself up and stay in the corner of the warehouse, waiting for orders."
"Sooner or later, there will be a time to use you."
Upon hearing that he would not be used immediately, Kelo's eyes visibly showed disappointment.
But in an instant, he adjusted his mindset.
As an excellent farm tool, he should not have his own thoughts.
The master's thoughts were his thoughts.
In front of Lin Tianwei, he didn't even dare to stand up.
He just lay prostrate on the ground, carefully crawling into the warehouse.
After a simple wash, he hid in the corner.
Like the most ordinary tool, he tried to minimize his presence.
Probably no one would have imagined that such an excellent farm tool would be hidden in such an ordinary warehouse.
The former captain of an A-rank Awakened team, in Lin Tianwei's eyes, was only useful for this much.
It's just that, after losing his self, whether such a life still held any meaning for Kelo.
However, looking at his fanatical eyes now.
I believe he must be very accepting of his new identity.
He would only be happy if someone used him.
And sad if he was left to waste.
Just as Lin Tianwei finished arranging Kelo, Black and White also ran back, carrying two Awakened.
Throwing the two Awakened violently onto the ground, Black and White said like presenting a treasure, "Big Brother, these two humans are for you."
Although Black and White's intelligence had improved a lot after his Awakening.
Compared to humans, however, it was still far too lacking.
Being able to speak these simple words was already his limit.
Although the Talents on these two Agility-type Awakened were very enticing.
After all, Lin Tianwei had all sorts of Talents, except for Agility-type Talents.
But what kind of skill was it to snatch the spoils of his subordinates?
Even if Black and White couldn't possess the Talent extraction system that he had.
Killing these two Agility-type Awakened himself was the most cost-effective plan.
Thinking of this, Lin Tianwei said in an undeniable tone:
"Since they are the prey you captured yourself, you deal with them yourself."
Black and White didn't expect that Lin Tianwei would refuse the gift he had brought from afar.
If he wanted to deal with them himself, he wouldn't have bothered bringing them all this way.
He could only stubbornly move the two closer to Lin Tianwei and continued to persuade, "Boss, they are for you."
"You must accept them."
Although he spoke word by word, Black and White's words were full of determination, as if he wouldn't give up if Lin Tianwei didn't accept them.
They were just some trashy and unnutritious prey; there was no need to push them back and forth.
Without hesitation, Lin Tianwei directly ended the lives of the two.
Anyone who dared to encircle him, paying with their lives, was the lowest price!
"Ding, congratulations to the host for killing a new target."
"Ding, Talent extraction successful, host has obtained Talent: Agility (Advanced)."
"Ding, please confirm whether the host wants to use this Talent."
"Agility (Advanced): Advanced Talent, greatly increases the host's Agility attribute, allowing the host to gain faster speed."
"Note: If other attributes are too low, the effectiveness of the Agility attribute's enhancement will be greatly reduced."
"Ding, congratulations to the host for killing a new target."
"Ding, Talent extraction successful, host has obtained Talent: Flexibility (Advanced)."
"Ding, please confirm whether the host wants to use this Talent."
"Flexibility (Advanced): Advanced Talent, a flexible body that allows the host to perform many incredible movements."
"Note: Performing movements that excessively violate the body's limits may cause self-injury."
Lin Tianwei hadn't expected that these two seemingly insignificant Agility-type Awakened could allow him to extract two good Talents.
He immediately chose to use them without hesitation.
At the same time, the Talent: Flexibility (Advanced) also merged with similar Talents, making Lin Tianwei's entire body even more flexible.
As for potentially hurting himself?
If he were truly forced to such an extent, he naturally had no reason to hold back.
As long as he could achieve victory.
His powerful Self-healing Ability could completely restore Lin Tianwei to his original state in a short time.
After a moment of hesitation, Lin Tianwei chose to consume a large amount of Talent Shards to upgrade Talent: Sonic Wave (Intermediate) and Talent: Tenacity (Intermediate).
The current intensity of combat was increasing, and these two intermediate Talents were already somewhat outdated.
Especially with the intelligence support from the Ismail Institute, Awakened who came to trouble Lin Tianwei basically had a set of protective equipment.
This caused Lin Tianwei's powerful Sonic Wave Talent to be almost useless.
Expending a large amount of energy to use it would only barely affect the enemy, which was completely not worth it.
The Tenacity Talent was the same.
Even with the Reinforcement of the Reinforcement Talent, it was still somewhat outdated.
After a battle, Lin Tianwei actually lost dozens of tiger hairs and scraped off a few pieces of skin, which was an intolerable matter.
An upgrade was already an urgent matter.
It just so happened that this three-in-one A-rank Awakened team provided a great upgrade gift package.
This was just enough to make up for Lin Tianwei's shortage of Talent Shards and successfully complete the upgrade of these two Talents.
Talent: Sonic Wave (Intermediate) → Talent: Sonic Wave (Advanced)!
Talent: Tenacity (Intermediate) → Talent: Tenacity (Advanced)!
As the Talents successfully upgraded, Lin Tianwei felt that he had also become much stronger.
He believed that the next time he came into contact with humans.
He would give them a big surprise.
He would give them an unforgettable lesson: never provoke him.
It's just a pity that they will probably only be able to use this lesson in their next life.
—
A certain base.
Pato was currently reporting to Horace about Lin Tianwei with a serious expression.
Finally, he said with a very certain tone, "So I request to immediately launch missiles to bomb the farm where the Tiger King is located."
"To completely nip the problem in the bud, I recommend setting the number of missiles to twenty or more."
"Such a powerful ground strike should be able to completely eliminate the Tiger King."
At this point, Pato's tone was a bit hesitant.
He really wasn't confident that twenty missiles would be enough to deal with Lin Tianwei.
However, saying any more would make him seem a bit crazy.
Dealing with just an "ordinary" Awakened Beast didn't require so much manpower and resources.
However, even the number twenty was enough for Horace to think he was being absurd.
Horace looked at Pato in surprise and asked, "You're not kidding me, are you?"
"Just a mere Awakened tiger, why would it require such a big fuss?"
"In my opinion, not a single missile needs to be launched."
"Just send some Awakened mercenaries to deal with it."
"You're really making a mountain out of a molehill."
Facing Horace's seemingly questioning, but actually doubting, words, Pato seriously repeated his point of view, saying:
"I'm not joking!"
"I, Pato, request to launch at least twenty missiles for a fatal strike on the Tiger King."
Looking at the incredibly serious Pato, Horace really couldn't hold back and burst out laughing.
After laughing for a full three minutes, he finally stopped and said:
"This is the funniest joke I've heard in the decades I've lived."
"Pato, if you insist on this, I'll have to seriously evaluate your intelligence."
"Besides, even if I agreed to such a foolish plan, it would be useless."
"Because the higher-ups would never agree."
"If you change the number of missiles to one."
"And I help you embellish it a bit, exaggerating the Tiger King's strength, perhaps this plan still has a chance of being executed."
Perhaps having already anticipated Horace's reaction, Pato was completely indifferent to the other party's ridicule, merely saying lightly:
"You have no idea about the Tiger King's power!"
