385: Crazy loading

In a sense, Yoris's label for Lin Tianwei was completely accurate; he was indeed a genuine cheater.

Of course, Lin Tianwei's cheating method was incredibly advanced, so much so that even the Law Arena couldn't detect it.

It was like taking an exam: Lin Tianwei didn't know how to arrive at the answers, but the answers would simply appear, allowing him to effortlessly fill them in and get a perfect score.

Returning to the waiting room, Lin Tianwei was unaware that he had been marked as a "cheater." Not only would the Arena's difficulty automatically increase by one level, but he would also frequently encounter other cheaters.

Of course, even if Lin Tianwei knew, he would merely scoff.

Increased difficulty? This was exactly what Lin Tianwei wished for; at least it would prevent him from getting too bored in the Law Arena.

After a moment of thought, Lin Tianwei ultimately decided against continuing to matchmake.

The third Arena match had made Lin Tianwei realize the shortcomings of his current combat template.

As the saying goes, sharpening the axe doesn't delay chopping wood. He decided to return to the training room first, thoroughly modify his body template, and then continue with the Arena matches.

With a thought, Lin Tianwei instantly lost his vision.

The Black Deep Sea covered the entire training room, instantly transforming into the brutal terrain Lin Tianwei had encountered in the previous Arena match.

Not only that, but a terrifying shark was also lurking in the shadows, waiting for an opportunity. As soon as Lin Tianwei gave the command, it would launch its fiercest attack.

Unsurprisingly, if Lin Tianwei continued to not restrict the Arena's terrain, he would encounter Arena terrains that blocked his Vision Field more than once in the future.

If he couldn't solve the current predicament, he would be at a disadvantage from the very beginning of the Arena match.

Talent: Vision Field (Extraordinary)!

The first thing Lin Tianwei subconsciously thought of was this Talent, a Talent that could greatly enhance his eyesight and Vision Field.

This Talent allowed Lin Tianwei to see everything clearly even in extremely harsh conditions.

Talent Template: Vision Field (Extraordinary) loaded!

Lin Tianwei was so overbearing and unreasonable that he instantly added a Talent Template to his combat template.

His eyes gradually became dark and profound, possessing stronger eyesight and a wider Vision Field.

Unexpectedly, even after loading the Talent Template: Vision Field (Extraordinary), Lin Tianwei still couldn't see in the Black Deep Sea; everything before him remained pitch black.

Light, Lin Tianwei lacked light.

Even the best eyes cannot escape the basic principles of imaging. Without the refraction of light, Lin Tianwei simply couldn't acquire information about his surroundings.

Despite the failure, the Talent Template: Vision Field (Extraordinary) did not achieve the effect he had imagined, but Lin Tianwei showed no sign of discouragement.

His path to becoming stronger was inherently a journey of constant exploration through setbacks.

Failure was not horrible; what was terrifying was losing the courage to face failure.

If one Talent Template didn't work, then Lin Tianwei would use three, five, or even ten Talent Templates.

What he had no shortage of was Talent Templates.

Talent Template: Flame Control (Extraordinary) loaded!

Since he lacked light, Lin Tianwei would give himself the ability to emit light.

Although Lin Tianwei didn't possess the ability to evolve into a light bulb, he could achieve the same effect through other Talents.

Flame was the simplest and most practical light source, and it could even serve as an unexpected offensive method for Lin Tianwei.

As the power of the new Talent Template gradually flowed throughout his body, Lin Tianwei's physical attributes changed somewhat, and he also gained new power.

He acquired the miraculous ability to manipulate flames.

Whoosh... In the pitch-black Black Deep Sea, a flicker of flame suddenly shot out. Although it was instantly extinguished by the icy seawater,

it briefly illuminated Lin Tianwei's surroundings, giving Vision Field room to operate.

Only then did Lin Tianwei perceive the truth of this Black Deep Sea.

The reason it was as black as ink, apart from the absence of sunlight, was that the black substance mixed with the seawater was the culprit behind it all.

This was an extremely special black substance, possessing excellent water solubility, completely integrated with the Black Deep Sea, indistinguishable from it.

Most importantly, this black substance possessed a special ability to absorb light, which meant that even if Lin Tianwei could briefly illuminate his surroundings, he was destined to fall into darkness again.

It seemed these two Talent Templates weren't as effective as he had imagined.

This method of observation, relying on light refraction, had too many limitations and was not suitable for the ever-changing Arena environment of the Beast Arena.

Or rather, a single method of observation was not secure. Only by having a sufficient number of observation methods to acquire information could Lin Tianwei perfectly cope with various environments he might encounter.

Talent Template: Sonic Wave (Extraordinary) loaded!

Without hesitation, Lin Tianwei once again loaded a new template for himself. This time, he recalled his old friend, his first insight Talent—Ultrasonic Wave.

However, Ultrasonic Wave had long since evolved into Sonic Wave, a super composite skill that integrated various effects, possessing not only detection capabilities.

It could even cooperate with Mental Power, breaking free from the constraints of the propagation medium, and exert its due effect in any environment.

With the loading of the new Talent Template, Lin Tianwei's body underwent changes again. The first to be affected was his throat, the main vocal organ,

which began to gradually evolve into a super organ capable of emitting Sonic Waves of various frequencies.

Not only that, but Lin Tianwei's body also began to evolve.

This time, the loading of the Talent Template even covered every cell in Lin Tianwei's body, granting them all the special ability to emit and receive Sonic Waves.

In fact, the power of Talent Template: Sonic Wave (Extraordinary) was not limited to a specific vocal or receiving organ.

As long as Lin Tianwei wished, he could apply this Talent to all parts of his body.

However, this involved a problem: the power would be too dispersed to maximize the effect of this Talent.

So, Lin Tianwei ultimately formed a pattern with the throat as the primary and the body as the secondary, intending to utilize this Talent Template to its fullest.

A moment later, Talent Template: Sonic Wave (Extraordinary) had successfully loaded.

Along with it, Lin Tianwei's physical attributes also decreased significantly.

This was inevitable; to evolve the ability to emit and receive Sonic Waves in his body, Lin Tianwei had to sacrifice some strength.

It was also fortunate that this series of Talent Templates were not Talent Templates targeting the body, otherwise, after this series of loadings, Lin Tianwei's body might actually collapse.

Buzz, buzz, buzz... Low Sonic Waves, using seawater as a medium, spread rapidly outwards from Lin Tianwei as the core.

However, compared to this vast ocean, the propagation speed of the Sonic Waves was indeed a bit slow, so slow that it barely captured the huge body of Luo after half a minute.

Such a situation clearly did not meet Lin Tianwei's needs.

Sonic Waves did help Lin Tianwei discover the target, but it was simply too slow, even slower than Luo's attack speed.

In the universe, there are countless beings whose movement speed far exceeds the speed of sound.

If he relied on Sonic Wave exploration, Lin Tianwei would not only fail to get useful information but would also confuse himself and receive incorrect information.

Talent Template: Mental Power (King) loaded!

After much thought, Lin Tianwei still felt that exploring with Mental Power was the best choice.

Mental Power was formless and intangible, a very special kind of energy.

It not only had extremely strong penetrating power, but its intensity could also be adjusted at will. It even combined offense and defense, making it a super versatile skill.

At the same time, it could also cooperate with Sonic Wave to achieve stronger detection effects.

Although Mental Power had many wonderful uses, it had one sole drawback: it was limited by one's own Mental Power.

Even if you possessed exquisite Mental Power control, without sufficiently powerful Mental Power as a driver, you simply couldn't unleash the true effect of this Talent Template.

If Lin Tianwei remembered correctly, the Berserk Giant Bear's body template seemed to be brain-damaged, with an innate Mental Power deficiency that was terrifyingly low.

Mental Power: 80 (Poor).

Under the influence of numerous Talent Templates, Lin Tianwei's Mental Power barely reached 80, receiving a poor evaluation.

Such excellent Mental Power made it impossible for Lin Tianwei to unleash the true power of Talent Template: Mental Power (King).

Lin Tianwei tried to release Mental Power in all directions, only to find that its speed was actually slower than Sonic Wave, which was truly a wasted opportunity.

Talent Template: Mental Strength Enhancement (Extraordinary) loaded!

Lin Tianwei expressed his dissatisfaction and tried to salvage his excellent Mental Power attribute, loading a template that could enhance Mental Power attributes.

Mental Power: 80 (Poor) → 160 (Normal)!

Lin Tianwei: ...This Talent Template is very effective. Please don't load it next time.

Talent Template: Mental Strength Enhancement (Extraordinary) was not a Talent Template that provided a fixed Mental Power bonus, but rather, like Talent: Mental Strength Enhancement (Extraordinary), it could double Lin Tianwei's original Mental Power.

Although Lin Tianwei wouldn't fall into the predicament of 0 * 2 = 0, this Extraordinary-level Talent Template was still in a state of being given away for free.

In fact, Lin Tianwei's own Siberian Tiger template wasn't much better than the Berserk Giant Bear's, and might even be worse than the Berserk Giant Bear template.

After all, no matter how weak the Berserk Giant Bear was, it was still a Cosmic Beast. It was impossible for its Mental Power to be lower than that of the Blue Star creature, the Siberian Tiger.

If Lin Tianwei weren't an anomaly, it could be said that he was in a state of being completely crushed.

If it weren't for the power of Talent: Mental Appetite (King), constantly eating and eating, Lin Tianwei's Mental Power attribute would be terrifyingly low, and it would be impossible for him to have the exaggerated level of millions he currently possessed.

So now the problem arises: this is the Law Arena, and there is no food that Lin Tianwei can consume to enhance his Mental Power.

At the same time, Lin Tianwei also believed that the Law Arena, which relied on loading Talent Templates to enhance body templates, could not have such a mechanism for enhancing Mental Power attributes.

Under these circumstances, how could Lin Tianwei increase his Mental Power attribute?

The answer to this question was crucial for Lin Tianwei, who intended to reshape his body.

Otherwise, no matter how hard he tried, what he would re-form would be a flawed body, an imperfect body.

Law Book!

Lin Tianwei instantly thought of the answer to this question.

There seemed to be few Mental-type Talents suitable for this situation, but it didn't matter; he could fully comprehend them through the Law Book.

As his comprehension of the Mental Law deepened, he would naturally acquire relevant Talent Templates, and even powerful Talents that could be applied to his real body.

This was the correct way to open the Law Arena, and this was the true reason why the Law Arena could attract countless Cosmic Beasts to flock to it.

The Talent Templates comprehended in the Law Arena could completely become his own Talents, Talents that enhanced his original strength, helping every Cosmic Beast become even stronger.

Thinking of this, Lin Tianwei was no longer in a hurry to participate in the fourth Arena match. Instead, he planned to buy some Law Books to comprehend.

At the very least, he needed to raise his Mental Power attribute to a barely acceptable level.

Otherwise, once he encountered strange terrain, he would become a blind bear again. Not only would he be passive, but Lin Tianwei especially hated the feeling of being completely unable to perceive his surroundings.

That would give him the illusion that he was at the mercy of others.

With his mind made up, Lin Tianwei directly exited the training room and came to the lounge, which was a good place to comprehend the Law Book.

Opening the exchange list, Lin Tianwei didn't hesitate and directly exchanged for one hundred Law Books (Mental).

Although ordinary Cosmic Beasts usually bought Law Books one by one, and also comprehended them one by one.

But how could Lin Tianwei be an ordinary Cosmic Beast?

If he bought Law Books, which only cost ten points each, one by one, other Cosmic Beasts would think he couldn't afford them.

Of course.

Lin Tianwei didn't buy so many Law Books at once just to be extravagant.

Although comprehending Law Books one by one was the most cost-effective, it also consumed a lot of time.

At the same time, comprehending multiple Law Books simultaneously, while wasteful of points, yielded the best results and maximized time utilization.

If he didn't know how effective it would be, Lin Tianwei would even consider trying to comprehend a thousand Law Books at once.

As one hundred Law Books (Mental) materialized in the lounge, Lin Tianwei gradually closed his eyes and began to wholeheartedly comprehend the Law Books (Mental).

Perhaps it was because he had two major Mental-type Talents as a foundation, Lin Tianwei had never comprehended Mental Law before, but he felt completely unfamiliar with it. On the contrary, he had a special sense of familiarity.

Looking at the Mental Law surrounding him, Lin Tianwei tried to perceive it with his mind,

only to find that he was completely enveloped by the Mental Law, as if he had arrived in an ocean, an ocean composed entirely of Mental Power.

Boom... The seawater condensed from Mental Power, as if drawn by a force, slammed towards Lin Tianwei, but at the moment it touched Lin Tianwei's body, it merged into his body, allowing him to perceive a little information about the Mental Law. (End of chapter)
