35: Talent upgrade
"Ding, congratulations Host on successfully upgrading your Talent. Your strength has significantly increased."
Just as Lin Tianwei finished licking himself clean, the tingling sensation receded like a tide.
What followed was even greater strength.
More powerful control over Ultrasonic Waves.
He could also release more potent Ultrasonic Waves as his offensive weapon.
After a moment of contemplation, Lin Tianwei assimilated the changes in his body.
His throat trembled slightly.
A more powerful Ultrasonic Wave was emitted.
Although he had mastered a new power, he still needed some practice to skillfully wield it.
Under Lin Tianwei's control, the high-speed Ultrasonic Waves once again wove a network in the air.
But this time it was different.
This net was more precise and powerful, possessing stronger information-capturing capabilities.
Under Lin Tianwei's control, this giant net continuously spread, quickly covering the entire space.
A large amount of information, following the return of the Ultrasonic Waves, flowed into Lin Tianwei's brain.
Allowing him to once again experience the sensation of his brain being flooded with vast amounts of information.
Ultimately possessing human intelligence, Lin Tianwei's information processing ability was extremely powerful.
Coupled with a lot of repetitive information, this time, he wasn't as uncomfortable as before.
After analyzing this information.
He knew exactly how many mutated beasts were in the entire space.
What each mutated beast looked like.
He knew it all like the back of his hand.
Even the fur on their bodies was clearly visible.
There were even some Ultrasonic Waves that, following the gaps between the buildings, radiated outwards.
Bringing Lin Tianwei a small amount of information.
Unfortunately, the amount of information was insufficient, and Lin Tianwei was still unable to ascertain the situation outside.
After grasping this information, Lin Tianwei stopped emitting and receiving Ultrasonic Waves.
While this ability was powerful, it was not without its drawbacks.
Its energy consumption reached an extremely terrifying figure.
Even with Lin Tianwei's powerful body, it wasn't entirely without burden.
In less than ten minutes, the energy in his body began to drop to a warning level.
A warning level Lin Tianwei had set himself.
He had to ensure that his body had enough energy to face any problems that might arise at any time.
So he could only stop such large-scale detection.
Instead, he controlled the Ultrasonic Waves within a very small range.
Maintaining the lowest consumption state, he practiced his control over it.
One hour.
Two hours... ten hours!
Ten hours of training finally allowed Lin Tianwei to completely master his new ability.
At least within a small range, he could skillfully control Ultrasonic Waves.
For detection, and for attack!
The attack power of the upgraded Ultrasonic Wave, just thinking about it made the tiger anticipate.
Through previous detection, Lin Tianwei had already grasped the general situation here.
Soon, he found his target.
This was a huge python.
Its body was thick and powerful.
It coiled on the ground, sleeping soundly.
For most mutated beasts, the iron cage was a restraint, but also a protection.
Allowing them to rest peacefully in this unsafe place.
However, iron cages could only block tangible attacks, but not intangible ones.
Lin Tianwei's Ultrasonic Wave, naturally, was among them.
The invisible Ultrasonic Wave was emitted and quickly penetrated into the python's brain.
It condensed, then exploded!
Like a bomb, it instantly killed the python.
Its seemingly strong body was useless in the face of Lin Tianwei's invisible attack.
"Ding, congratulations Host on killing a new target."
"Ding, Talent extraction successful. Host has acquired the Talent: Giant Maw (Normal)."
"Ding, please Host confirm whether to use this Talent."
"Giant Maw (Normal): A normal-grade Talent, possessing the ability to open the mouth wider."
Useful, but not much.
Lin Tianwei chose to refuse to use it.
After all, without the unique body structure and digestive organs of snakes, Lin Tianwei did not need to swallow too much food at once.
Eating too much would instead affect his combat power.
After a light taste, Lin Tianwei yawned, closed his eyes, and prepared for a good rest.
Although the upgraded Ultrasonic Wave was powerful and the hunting efficiency was higher.
But once the excitement of becoming stronger passed, and a large amount of physical strength was consumed, even he felt a little tired.
Especially since using the Ultrasonic Wave consumed a lot of physical strength.
Coupled with not eating for a day, he had to reduce consumption to maintain his combat power.
However, just as he was about to fall asleep, the familiar large iron gate was opened again.
Feeling the vibrations coming from the iron cage, Lin Tianwei was a little surprised.
Only a mere day had passed, how was it his turn to enter the Arena again?
But this was exactly what he wanted.
This powerful body now needed some food to replenish its energy.
He just wondered which lucky fellow would have the honor of becoming his food.
Arriving at the familiar Arena again, Lin Tianwei first looked at the giant scoreboard.
That was the simplest way for him to get information about his opponent.
As expected, the number under his name had changed to "2".
Meaning he had achieved two consecutive victories.
On the other side of the scoreboard, it read Sword Lion, "47".
This number was even smaller than the previous Bat King.
However, Lin Tianwei would not underestimate his opponent because of this.
Here, every mutated beast fought with their lives on the line.
Arrogance would only hasten one's steps towards death.
Since it was called a Sword Lion, Lin Tianwei's enemy was naturally a lion.
Golden fur, a beautiful mane, a slender tail.
These were all typical characteristics of a lion.
The most striking feature was the Sword Lion's teeth.
Spotlessly white, like the finest white jade.
They formed two long swords, protruding abruptly from the Sword Lion's mouth.
They gleamed with a cold light, incredibly sharp!
Clearly, these were definitely two divine weapons.
A creature similar to a saber-toothed tiger?
Lin Tianwei was a little surprised, how could such a creature survive here?
The two saber teeth, which looked majestic and powerful, were nothing but a burden.
Otherwise, saber-toothed tigers would not have been eliminated by nature, allowing ordinary tigers to survive until the end.
Before Lin Tianwei could make a move, the Sword Lion opposite him transformed into a yellow lightning bolt and charged at Lin Tianwei.
The bloodlust in its eyes was enough to make people tremble, even through the screen.
: "Here it comes, here it comes, the highly anticipated lion-tiger battle."
"At the same size, who is more powerful, a lion or a tiger?"
"We finally have a conclusion!"
: "Unfair, this is unfair."
"This Sword Lion doesn't play by the rules. It brings cold weapons to a melee fight. Winning is an unfair victory."
"This is simply an unfair battle!"
: "No way, no way, there are actually people who still think this is an ordinary Siberian Tiger?"
"He's just not obviously powerful."
"If he were a truly ordinary Siberian Tiger, he would have turned into bear dung in the first fight against Sandru."
: "So you're very confident in this Siberian Tiger?"
"So how much did you bet on him to win?"
"Although the odds are only 2.2 times, as long as you bet enough, you can still make a fortune."
: "Although this Siberian Tiger is very powerful, of course I choose to bet on the Sword Lion."
"No matter how powerful he is, he can't be more powerful than this Sword Lion."
... In the security lounge, Hector was looking at the camera with excitement.
His right hand clutched a slip of paper tightly, which was none other than the betting slip where he had wagered his entire fortune on Lin Tianwei!
