Chapter 64: Retreat

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Lin Feng understood his current situation now. This was equivalent to five locks. He had to break five locks to undergo metamorphosis.

As expected, as one obtained strength, one had to lose something at the same time. The world was fair. Lin Feng relied on the genes of the other four dire beasts to become practically the strongest person below the inhuman level. He possessed unimaginable strength among martial artists of the same

level, and obtained the honor envied by the masses. Thus, if he wanted to break the genetic lock, he would have to work harder than other martial artists.

Five genetic locks were not actually as intimidating as perceived. At least Lin Feng had already “seen” one of the locks. The remaining ones would be the genetic locks of the four dire beasts.

Although no dire beast had ever broken the genetic lock before, Lin Feng felt that since they were all genetic locks, there should be no difference between humans and dire beasts.

If he wanted to break the genetic lock of the other four dire beasts, he would first have to sense the genetic locks of the dire beasts. As for how, Lin Feng already had experience in sensing the genetic lock once. How difficult would it be to sense the genetic locks of the other dire beasts?

Hence, Lin Feng immediately took action. He kept recalling the “darkness” he had fallen into. Back then, he had appeared in the form of a “human”, which meant that he had sensed the genetic lock of a human.

Now, if he wanted to sense the dire beasts’ genetic locks, his first target was naturally the Wild Bovine’s genetic lock. This was the first type of dire beast whose genes he had fused, and which he had the deepest understanding for.

This was especially the case since Lin Feng had comprehended the Wild Bovine genes. In terms of breaking the genetic lock, apart from Lin Feng’s own genes, the Wild Bovine’s genetic lock should be the easiest to break.

Lin Feng spent three days collecting information and finally found the reason why he could not undergo metamorphosis.

On the fourth day, he spent the entire day focusing on sensing the Wild Bovine’s genetic lock.

He had already experienced sensing the genetic lock once. Even though he was sensing the Wild Bovine’s genetic lock this time, Lin Feng did not find it too difficult at all.

He tried again and again. So, in his daze, Lin Feng fell into a wondrous, dream-like feeling which he had no control over.

He could feel the howling wind around him, but his surroundings were pitch-black. There was panic and fear in his heart. He only wanted to run wildly. He didn’t even know why he was running, but he couldn’t control himself.

The howl of the wind grew louder and louder. Lin Feng shook his head slightly. He looked down and discovered that he had actually transformed into a Wild Bovine. Or rather, he himself was a Wild Bovine.

‘The Wild Bovine ran through the dark wilderness. There was a strong desire in its heart, and it was the yearning for freedom.

Swoosh.

After an unknown amount of time, Lin Feng opened his eyes and realized that he was still in the room. However, it was already well into the night outside.

“So the genetic lock of the Wild Bovine is the Wild Bovine’s desire. It yearns for freedom in its heart…”

Wild Bovines were only a very weak kind of dire beast in the Outland. They could not even be considered dire beasts. Other dire beasts hunted Wild Bovines, while humans also consumed Wild Bovines.

The Wild Bovines ran for their lives every day. They ran madly every day, but deep down, the Wild Bovines also thirsted for freedom.

This extreme thirst had almost been etched deep within the Wild Bovine’s genes. Even though it was already dead, even though they were fused into Lin Feng’s genes, this desire was firm as ever.

“Breaking the genetic lock means breaking the shackles. I see.”

Lin Feng understood. He really understood now. Even when he saw his own genetic lock in the past, his understanding of why the genetic lock could be broken was actually half-baked.

This was even the case for many martial artists. The reasons why they wanted to break the genetic lock and why they could break the genetic lock were probably unknown to most martial artists.

However, Lin Feng understood after seeing the Wild Bovine’s genetic lock. At this moment, he knew that breaking the five locks was not as difficult as he had imagined.

Lin Feng did not rest for too long. He began to fall into a daze again. This time, he transformed into a Unicorn.

Unicorns loved their horn very much. They would even “maintain” their horn every day, because it was their toughest weapon, and the tool with which they could drive away enemies.

Lin Feng transformed into the Unicorn. It had only one obsessive desire, and that was to protect its horn properly.

Next, Lin Feng transformed into the Proboscis Beast. Proboscis Beasts were extremely strong, but their temperaments were actually relatively mellow. They hoped that all the difficulties in the world could be overcome with their great strength and long trunks.

In 3 days, Lin Feng had already seen the genetic locks of the 3 types of dire beasts. He did not attempt to break the genetic locks, because he did not need to. Once he had sensed the genetic lock of the last dire beast, he would be able to break all 5 locks at once.

Only through this way could he break his genetic lock and truly begin his metamorphosis, restructure his genes, and become an inhuman expert. Lin Feng had never come so close to metamorphosis as he did now. It was almost within reach.

Once he broke the 5 locks, apart from the incredible power brought about by the metamorphosis of his own human genes, Lin Feng was also looking forward to seeing what other special abilities the other genes from the 4 dire beasts would bring about for him.

Lin Feng stayed in his room for 6 days. It was actually a little difficult for him to sense the genetic lock of the last dire beast, much harder than the other three.

This was because it was a brand-new type of dire beast. Lin Feng did not even know its name. It might take a longer time.

Just as Lin Feng was studying how to “sense” the genes of the last dire beast, Feng Xiu came looking for him.

“Brother Feng, are you ready? We’re retreating.”

“Retreat? When did that happen?”

Lin Feng had been sensing the genetic locks all this time. Naturally, he hadn’t paid any attention to what was going on in the base.

“Brother Feng, did you not receive the message on your communicator? The Chief Commander and the leaders of all the platoons have already given the order to retreat. Dragon Mountain Base is not safe. We are to retreat to Dragonlith City first. We are departing today, and all of us must retreat.”

Lin Feng nodded. He really hadn’t noticed. However, he didn’t have much to pack. Since it was a retreat, he naturally had to obey the order.

“understand. I don’t need to prepare for anything and can leave at any time.”

“Brother Feng, let’s go then.”

Lin Feng felt a little regretful that he still had not sensed the genetic lock of the last dire beast. Once he sensed it, he would be able to undergo metamorphosis and restructure his genes. Then, his strange illness would be cured.

However, the retreat would not take too long. Once they had retreated to Dragonlith City, he could continue to sense the genetic lock of the dire beast. At this point, Lin Feng was not in a hurry anymore.

Breaking the genetic lock was almost certain, and there was no rush.

Hence, Lin Feng and Feng Xiu left the room together. They discovered that there were already many martial artists gathered densely in the square. Apart from the martial artists from the 16 platoons, there were also some martial artists who had not arrived at the frontline and some logistics personnel.

This time, all of them were to retreat. Dozens of spaceships had long arrived at the base, and were receiving all the people in succession.
