246: Mighty and mighty
Tigers Might suppresses the world! Divine power is vast!
This was the later generations' evaluation of Lin Tianwei's actions.
With just one strike, he cleared out all Awakened creatures on the entire Blue Star that possessed rebellious consciousness. Such terrifying ability was fully worthy of the words 'Divine Power'.
After learning of the terrifying results of Lin Tianwei's strike, MacArthur's body stiffened.
Although it was summer, he felt a bone-chilling cold like the dead of winter.
In fact, everyone had the idea that the law doesn't punish a crowd, and also a tendency to follow the majority.
This is why so many people often make foolish mistakes at critical moments.
It's not that they aren't afraid of death; it's just that they don't think they will die.
Some even particularly enjoy the feeling of dancing on the edge of a knife; it's a different kind of thrill.
Only this time, they miscalculated.
They never expected that Lin Tianwei would be so impartial, destroying all dissenters in an instant.
He was as cold and ruthless as a god without emotions.
Although MacArthur chose to surrender, he didn't actually believe that refusing to surrender would necessarily lead to death.
Those were hundreds of millions of Awakened creatures, spread across every corner of the entire Blue Star.
Tiger King might choose to annihilate a place with many dissenting voices, similar to how he dealt with the Water Monster, to once again achieve the goal of killing a chicken to warn the monkeys.
This was also the most efficient and effective approach.
However, as the leader of America, even if there was only a 0.01% chance of death, MacArthur couldn't afford to gamble.
He had to be responsible for his country and people.
So he could only choose to surrender.
Yet, he never expected such an outrageous thing to happen.
A Tiger's Roar being able to spread across the entire Blue Star and being able to instantly kill all those on the entire Blue Star who refused to surrender were two completely different matters.
The former was merely simple sound transmission, while the latter required the consumption of endless, terrifying energy.
However, such an outrageous thing was actually happening before his eyes, so how could MacArthur not feel a chill run through him?
Just a little, just a little bit more, and he might have become one of those instantly annihilated.
In fact, many places that chose to refuse surrender were often in this situation.
They were generally small places, believing that Lin Tianwei wouldn't have the leisure to deal with them.
So they chose to be unique, using this distinct method to demonstrate that they possessed a higher level of awareness than major powers.
Yet they never expected that what awaited them would be the annihilation of their entire country.
That's right, he made the right choice, thankfully he made the right choice.
MacArthur wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, slumping weakly into his seat.
He was immensely grateful that he had made the correct choice at the first opportunity.
At the same time, a deep despair arose in his heart, as if a terrifying abyss was about to swallow him.
Lin Tianwei actually possessed such powerful strength, which meant that they had no chance of resistance at all.
A single thought.
Just a simple thought could annihilate the entire America.
Such a terrifying monster was not an existence that America could contend with.
After despair came a deeper understanding.
Completely extinguishing the thought of resistance might also be a tremendous good thing for MacArthur.
He only needed to focus on the sole matter of how to satisfy Lin Tianwei.
It was far simpler than overthinking everything.
Thinking of this, MacArthur suddenly realized that the importance of the Tiger King Special Task Force was far greater than he had initially anticipated, and he unhesitatingly dialed Etna's number.
Beep, beep, beep... After a few rings, Etna answered the phone.
MacArthur's relieved voice came from the other end of the line.
Along with his numerous admonitions.
Etna nodded repeatedly in agreement, like a chick constantly pecking at food.
Finally, MacArthur said very solemnly, “Etna, you must not have any thoughts of taking it lightly.”
“You represent our entire America.”
“A slight oversight could plunge America into eternal damnation.”
“You might have some small thoughts of defiance, but promise me, for the sake of America, put those thoughts away.”
Hearing MacArthur's words, Etna said with a bitter smile, “General MacArthur, you truly think too highly of me. How would I dare to have any small thoughts?”
“Don't worry, I will put 800% of my effort into handling matters related to the Tiger King.”
As an excellent data analyst, Etna was also particularly concerned about this incident.
The non-submissive individuals within America were his primary observation targets.
Those who chose to resist but only suffered immense pressure were Etna's primary observation targets.
Bang!
A muffled thud echoed out of nowhere.
The moment the twenty-four hours ended, his observation targets instantly turned into a bloody mess.
Etna's expression immediately stiffened.
Such a terrifying scene sent a chill through him.
The subsequent news overwhelmed him even further, making him feel Lin Tianwei's irresistible majesty.
The Tiger King had actually completed the cleansing of the entire Blue Star in an instant.
This was absolutely a god-like existence.
Facing such a terrifying existence, MacArthur actually worried that he would have small thoughts; Etna felt that he truly thought highly of him.
He took a deep breath, adjusting his mindset.
Etna looked at the plans he had formulated on his desk.
These plans seemed perfect, but they weren't perfect enough; many details still needed to be refined.
He had to work harder.
Thinking of this, Etna clenched his fists... The same thing was happening in every corner of Blue Star.
This time, no creature dared to question Lin Tianwei's majesty.
Because all creatures that dared to question Lin Tianwei's majesty were already dead.
They used their lives to show the entire Blue Star the consequences of questioning Lin Tianwei.
In the future, they might have many things to do, but the most important thing would definitely be how to satisfy Lin Tianwei.
They could not bear the wrath of a true god.
—
In the Tiger King Farm, within the Tiger King Temple.
At this moment, Lin Tianwei had once again focused his attention on the Alpha Gene.
Although there were still a few stragglers, they were clearly no match for Lin Tianwei and could be dealt with later when he had time.
Although this attack consumed a large amount of Lin Tianwei's energy, pushing his remaining energy past the warning line to a bottom-fishing level of 98%.
However, from the perspective of the results, it was a very worthwhile endeavor.
At least until this generation of creatures largely died out, it was absolutely impossible for anyone to jump out and seek their own demise.
Swatting a fly was simple, but for Lin Tianwei, it was still troublesome enough.
It must be said that Ouro's efficiency was very high.
Or perhaps it was Lin Tianwei's strength that was strong enough, causing the entire Blue Star to cooperate with his commands.
In just a few hours, the Tiger King Temple was filled with a large amount of experimental materials.
These were various Awakened creatures, big and small, chaotic Awakened creatures that had not explicitly expressed their submission to Lin Tianwei.
Under the effect of the Talent: Beast Spirit (Extraordinary), Lin Tianwei began the second round of experiments on the Alpha Gene.
He drove powerful Awakened creatures, one after another, like moths to a flame, continuously feeding the colorless liquid representing the Alpha Gene.
The Alpha Gene, in turn, accepted all of Lin Tianwei's offerings, devouring them madly.
First-order small Awakened creatures, first-order medium Awakened creatures, first-order large Awakened creatures, first-order giant Awakened creatures.
Failure, failure, failure, failure!
They were not strong enough and all turned into food for the Alpha Gene.
They couldn't even make the Alpha Gene grow by a single percentage point; their sacrifice was utterly worthless.
Indeed, first-order Awakened creatures were still too weak, not even qualifying as food for the Alpha Gene.
However, Lin Tianwei did not get discouraged and continued to feed them.
Second-order, third-order, ..., ninth-order!
When fed to a ninth-order giant creature, the Alpha Gene, which had remained motionless, finally reacted.
This was a nine-tier Lightning Lizard, with a body length of eighty meters. Its most powerful ability was to release lightning.
The accumulated lightning could even turn into thunderbolts to completely tear enemies apart.
However, this terrifying Lightning Lizard before him was merely Lin Tianwei's plaything.
Under the control of the Talent: Beast Spirit (Extraordinary), the Lightning Lizard could only walk towards the colorless liquid representing the Alpha Gene with fear.
Although the Lightning Lizard's intelligence was not high, it was not completely foolish.
Facing the Alpha Gene, which had already devoured countless Awakened creatures, its eyes held only fear.
However, it could not resist Lin Tianwei's control. Its ability slowly extended its long tongue towards the Alpha Gene at the bottom of the platform and licked it.
To conduct further experiments, Lin Tianwei also, for the first time, used his own power.
He forged a massive platform underground with incredibly hot flames.
A platform large enough to accommodate all Awakened creatures.
This was also a necessary measure to prevent the Alpha Gene from escaping.
No sooner said than done.
The originally quiet Alpha Gene came alive the moment it touched the Lightning Lizard's tongue.
It rapidly integrated into the Lightning Lizard's tongue at a speed imperceptible to the naked eye.
Just as had happened to every previous test subject.
Only this time, there was a clear difference.
Under Lin Tianwei's observation, the Lightning Lizard's body did not directly collapse.
Instead, it seemed to have completely absorbed the Alpha Gene, remaining terrifyingly stable.
Lin Tianwei's eyes gleamed with excitement; he had finally found the correct path.
The Alpha Gene was incredibly powerful. If he could obtain its hidden abilities, his own strength might become even greater.
Strong enough to break out of the universe.
At that time, an even vaster sky would await him.
Thinking of this, Lin Tianwei focused intently on observing the Lightning Lizard's state.
He dared not miss any subtle changes.
The most obvious change was the Lightning Lizard's mental state.
From panic to bewilderment, and then to a daze.
A very clear change could be seen in the Lightning Lizard's eyes.
Even faintly, Lin Tianwei felt a golden light flashing in the Lightning Lizard's eyes.
Although it was just a fleeting glimpse, it was still noticed by the extremely perceptive Lin Tianwei.
This time, perhaps he could succeed?
Under Lin Tianwei's excited gaze, the Lightning Lizard's body underwent terrifying changes.
As if unable to withstand the power of the Alpha Gene, after three minutes, the Lightning Lizard began to melt.
Just like the fate of the previous test subjects, it seemed to have touched a high-temperature wax product, gradually melting into a puddle of colorless liquid.
“Ding, congratulations to the host for killing a new target.”
“Ding, Talent extraction failed. The host has obtained 230,000 Talent Fragments.”
Before the Lightning Lizard completely melted, Lin Tianwei harvested its life.
Only this time, compared to the pitifully small number of Talent Fragments from before.
Although the extraction failed, Lin Tianwei obtained an extremely large number of Talent Fragments, actually amounting to 100,000.
Failure? Or perhaps not a complete failure?
The Lightning Lizard clearly showed signs of merging with the Alpha Gene, but ultimately, its body was too weak and couldn't withstand the Alpha Gene's power, leading to its collapse.
It was completely devoured by the Alpha Gene, becoming its food.
However, due to partial fusion, the Alpha Gene did modify the Lightning Lizard's body, granting it stronger power.
This led to Lin Tianwei still obtaining a large number of Talent Fragments despite the Talent extraction failure.
His experimental direction was correct!
Lin Tianwei was overjoyed.
Perhaps with a few more experiments, he would be able to obtain the powerful strength hidden within the Alpha Gene.
That was the powerful strength that could trigger a major warning from the Legendary-level Danger Perception Talent.
The powerful strength that could unknowingly bewitch someone with Mental Power as high as 50,000.
Just thinking about it made the Tiger feel excited about how powerful he would be after obtaining the Alpha Gene.
Powerful experimental materials, he needed more powerful experimental materials!
Lin Tianwei unhesitatingly issued a command to Ouro.
It was easy to get things done with subordinates; the needed items could be obtained with just a command.
If Lin Tianwei had to hunt prey one by one, a lot of time would be wasted, and it wouldn't be as easy as it was now.
Three hours.
In just three hours, Ouro delivered a large number of high-level ninth-order Awakened creatures, giant ninth-order Awakened creatures.
The people outside were worried about how to offer tributes to Lin Tianwei, who had just displayed his divine power, but they didn't expect such an opportunity to arise so soon.
They immediately sent a large number of ninth-order giant Awakened creatures without hesitation.
Not only that, but even more ninth-order giant Awakened creatures were on their way to the Tiger King Farm.
Even though it was already deep into the night, it still couldn't stop their enthusiasm.
Although these ninth-order giant Awakened creatures were merely failed, low-potential products mass-produced by the Research Institute.
Most of them lacked their own intelligence and could only serve as high-level experimental materials.
After the experiments were completed, their body parts would even be recycled as materials for modified humans, ensuring 100% utilization.
Although these ninth-order giant Awakened creatures had limited potential, they were just right as experimental materials for Lin Tianwei. (End of Chapter)
