Chapter 56: Genetic Lock

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In the haze, Lin Feng felt as if he had fallen into boundless darkness. His surroundings were pitch-black, without a trace of light.

“Where am I?”

“Where is this?”

“Anyone?”

Lin Feng ran with all his might, but it seemed like there was no end ahead. It was boundless. No matter how far he ran, he could not reach the end.

He punched his surroundings hard, but was met with no resistance at all. His invincible strength could not break through this darkness no matter what.

“Could this be hell?”

“Anyone?”

Lin Feng felt fear. His will had always been very strong, but now, he was trapped in this darkness. There was no one, no sound, nothing at all. All he could see was darkness.

Lin Feng did not know how much time had passed. Perhaps an hour, perhaps a day, or perhaps a year. Lin Feng no longer had any concept of time. He could only run madly, stopping when he was tired, but it seemed like he could not reach the end no matter what.

It was as if this darkness would never end.

“Dad, Mom, big brother, second brother, sister, and Qu Chen, I will get out no matter what. I must see you guys. I can’t stay here…”

This was the only thought in Lin Feng’s heart. Or rather, if not for this thought, he would have long been assimilated by this darkness, and might stay in this darkness forever.

Finally, Lin Feng seemed to “see” a pair of eyes appear in the darkness. Those eyes were so familiar.

‘The roars of the Wild Bovine sounded in his ears, as well as the figure of the Unicorn. There was also the despair in the gaze of the giant Proboscis Beast. The fleshworm dire beast in particular appeared like a stone sculpture, and had completely lost its vitality.

Lin Feng’s body shook. Wasn’t this the four dire beasts whose genes he had fused? Wasn’t this his source of power? Why were they also trapped in this darkness, and looking so helpless?

A voice called out from the depths of Lin Feng’s heart. Stop struggling. No matter how much you struggle, you can’t leave this darkness. If you’re tired, stop and rest. Stay here forever.

“No, I don’t want to stay here. I can’t stay here. I want to leave! Get! Away! Ah!”

Lin Feng howled like a madman. He looked up at the sky, which was still pitch-black.

At the same time, as Lin Feng roared, the Wild Bovine, Unicorn, Proboscis Beast, and fleshworm dire beast beside him seemed to be jolted awake, and they howled furiously with Lin Feng.

Swoosh.

Cold sweat broke out on Lin Feng’s forehead. He opened his eyes immediately, but his entire body felt extremely weak and did not have any strength at all. It was difficult to even move a little.

“You’re awake? I’ll inform the Chief Commander at once.”

A surprised voice sounded in Lin Feng’s ear. He looked over and saw a spirited woman in a white nurse’s uniform.

The nurse hurriedly ran out. Only then did Lin Feng observe his surroundings.

“Tm in the hospital?”

Lin Feng’s head hurt a little. The place he lived in looked like a hospital, and there was even the smell of antiseptic. He should be in a single ward, and there was no one else there other than the female nurse just now.

Lin Feng thought carefully again, and a vague memory appeared in his mind.

He seemed to be engaged in an intense battle at the frontline. He had just defeated three dire beast kings, and before he could kill the last giant Proboscis Beast, he had fainted for some reason.

He struggled to stand up, but his body was very weak. It seemed very difficult to even move a finger.

“What happened to me?”

Lin Feng was very anxious. Something seemed to have happened to his body. Moreover, was the nightmare he just had really just a nightmare?

‘The dream just now was too realistic. Even Lin Feng felt a lingering fear when he recalled it now.

Not long after, hurried footsteps came from outside. Then, they pushed the door open and entered. Many people entered at once. The person in the lead was Chief Commander Long Duo of the Dragon Mountain Base, whom Lin Feng had only seen once from afar before.

“Chief Commander, why are you here?”

Lin Feng was still very respectful towards Long Duo. On the battlefield, Chief Commander Long Duo also fought bloody battles, saving countless martial artists.

Seeing that Lin Feng had woken up, Chief Commander Long Duo heaved a sigh of relief, as if a heavy burden had been lifted from his shoulders. He smiled and said, “Of course I have to come. Lin Feng, you are the hero of Dragon Mountain Base. There are many people who are concerned about your life.”

“Hero?”

Lin Feng was still a little confused, not knowing what was going on.

“Of course you’re a hero. Lin Feng, you may not know this, but it’s precisely because you killed the dire beast kings, especially that fleshworm dire beast, in the decisive battle back then. It seemed to have an extraordinary status among the dire beasts. Once it died, all the dire beasts retreated. So, you

undoubtedly deserve the title of hero. You practically saved everyone at the Dragon Mountain Base.”

Lin Feng understood now. He had killed the fleshworm dire beast, causing all the dire beasts to retreat. But how was this possible? How could a dire beast king have such a huge influence?

One had to remember that there were 15 demons in the final battle. No matter how strong a dire beast king was, it couldn’t be stronger than a demon.

“Chief Commander, how long was I unconscious for?”

“Lin Feng, you’ve already been unconscious for seven days and seven nights.”

“What? Seven days?”

Lin Feng was shocked. He did not expect to be unconscious for seven days.

“By the way, Lin Feng, how did you lose consciousness?”

Lin Feng shook his head and said, “I don’t know how I lost consciousness either.”

Lin Feng really did not know. He had only fused with the genes of the fleshworm dire beast, but this shouldn’t be enough to make him unconscious, right?

“That’s right, I had a nightmare recently. I dreamed that I was in the darkness and couldn’t break free no matter what…”

“Wait, was everything dark around you?”

“Yes, it was completely dark. I couldn’t see anything.”

Long Duo frowned. He seemed to know something.

“Chief Commander, do you know what’s going on with me?”

“If Tm not wrong, you saw the lock.”

“The lock?”

“The genetic lock!”

Lin Feng’s mouth fell open. He had “seen” the genetic lock, just like that? Although he had collected a lot of information about the genetic lock, no expert who had broken the genetic lock had explained it to him in detail. How could he know the details?

Seeing that Lin Feng really did not know anything, Long Duo continued to explain, “The genetic lock is an invisible lock that exists in the bodies of humans. It can only be sensed under special circumstances. Normally, one can only sense the genetic lock in life-or-death situations. Once one senses the

genetic lock, they will immediately attempt to break the genetic lock.”

“Once you can sense the genetic lock, you can attempt to break the genetic lock and become an inhuman expert. Your body will begin metamorphosing rapidly. You wouldn’t fail under such circumstances. However, your situation is unheard of. Your body doesn’t seem to have begun to undergo

metamorphosis, either. How strange.”

Although Long Duo was experienced and knowledgeable, this was the first time he had encountered a situation like Lin Feng’s, where someone had sensed the genetic lock without undergoing metamorphosis..
