Wasteland: My Items Can Be Infinitely Upgraded-Chapter 589 - 285: Wolf Ao with Tier Three Power, Administering Strong Medicine (Part 2)
"It can probably last for an hour, which should be more than enough to deal with this human settlement."
After listening to the intelligence provided by the Wolf King, Lin Feng was in shock.
After all, according to his predictions and expectations, Wolf Ao’s strength was at most only slightly stronger than Bishop Zhang Hui, making him the strongest among the three Level 29 evolutionary forms...
But what Lin Feng didn’t expect was that Wolf Ao’s reserve power was so astonishing.
Although the Tier Three power only lasted for an hour, it was more than enough to deal with the Salvation Army and Oasis Town.
Fortunately, just as Lin Feng was engulfed in shock, the wolf head, the consciousness expression of the Wolf King, continued to speak:
"But there’s no need to worry too much. After all, using my power comes at a very high cost for Wolf Ao. The load of Tier Three power cannot be borne by a Level 29 giant wolf that should have died long ago."
"And most importantly, while Tier Three power destroys its original cellular structure, the intense energy waves will also impact its brain consciousness, tearing apart its already limited primitive brain cells."
"This means that every time it leaves Fallen Wolf Valley and uses my Tier Three power, Wolf Ao will lose a part of its memory."
"The more it uses the power that doesn’t belong to it, the more memories it will lose, until one day, it might even lose its self-awareness, forget its past, and become a soulless zombie."
"Becoming a mindless beast driven by instinct, just like the Corpse Wolves in the Taishan Ruins."
"So this cost is something that Wolf Ao cannot bear, especially since its ultimate goal is to prolong its own life."
"If it loses itself and becomes a walking corpse, then all its efforts would be meaningless."
"The best way for you to resist the Desert Wolf Race’s attack is to make Wolf Ao clearly understand that the price and risks it needs to pay in this war far outweigh the potential gains..."
"This way, it might retreat in the face of difficulties and abandon the siege of the settlement."
"After all, with its nature like a cunning and crafty wolf, hidden beneath its sly and deceitful character is absolute selfishness, it won’t change because of the time and environment."
"Nor will it truly sacrifice itself for the greater good of the tribe’s future."
"Exploiting this weakness is the only way to resolve this crisis and eventually, in the future, eliminate it to rid the Wolf Race of this tumor."
Lin Feng nodded. If the leader of the Desert Wolf Race, Wolf Ao, is indeed as cunning and selfish as the Wolf King described, then having such a leader who exists only for its own self-interest would surely spell disaster for the entire Wolf Race.
After all, in order to extend its own life, Wolf Ao has already hindered the Wolf Race’s development for thousands of years.
During this period, the Desert Wolf Race neither faced suppression from external Tier Three Kings nor surveillance or harassment from large settlements. Logically, they should have thrived long ago.
Over time, even without a new Tier Three Wolf King appearing, at the very least, there should be dozens of Tier Two Clan Leader-level Desert Wolves existing.
They would form a massive beast pack, just like the Rock-Horned Horse Herd on the Wasteland.
But right now, in the Desert Wolf Race, apart from Wolf Ao, who is the first generation with pure bloodline, only its three offspring have become Tier Two Giant Wolves.
Calculating their overall strength, without counting Wolf Ao as an outlier who’s lived a thousand years, they aren’t even half as strong as Oasis Town.
So the original plan still needs to be executed.
It just requires some adjustments.
While Lin Feng was contemplating, Zong Shiyue, who was sullen and displeased beside him, finally spoke up harshly:
"If you ask me, just take my flesh and blood up there and jab these wolf bastards a good one."
"By the time the mutated flesh and blood infiltrate their blood vessels, with just a thought, that Level 29 giant wolf capable of exhibiting Level 30 power would suffer significant damage even if a true Tier Three showed up."
"I can still control the polluted Evolved Desolate Wolves to attack each other, continuing to infect those normal evolutionary forms, and eventually turn them all into my corpse slaves."
Lin Feng twitched at the corners of his mouth and directly dismissed Zong Shiyue’s idea of using this as an opportunity for personal vendetta:
"Using tens of thousands of Evolved Desolate Wolves just to send to you as fodder, who would compensate for my loss then?"
"The current issue is how to repel or resolve Wolf Ao, not to annihilate the entire wolf pack."
"The Wolf Race wants to slaughter Oasis Town as a resource for its own evolutionary expansion, and I too have my sights on the evolutionary meat and life source material from their bodies..."
"Or are you saying you can precisely control the pollution without forming a large-scale biochemical disaster while avoiding detection by the Holy Spring Sect?"
"Once the news spreads, next time it won’t be the Holy See’s Holy Temple Knight Order coming, but a Tier Three Bishop or even the personal visit of the Saint of Storms, to grind you to dust and uproot you completely!"
"Then when the Scorching Sun Forbidden Area passes in the future, the Holy See will use the big killer in their hands, like the nuclear weapons left from the old era, to directly flatten the entire Taishan Ruins."
"Do you think a temperature of millions of degrees can’t erase all traces of you?"
Choked by Lin Feng’s series of rhetorical questions, Zong Shiyue gradually calmed down and began to consider truly feasible countermeasures.
And after a moment, he reminded:
"Judging by your expression now, I guess you haven’t prepared countermeasures yet or you can’t solve the problem of this Level 29 giant wolf..."
"If you ask me, whoever tied the bell should unbind it."
"If this matter cannot use my flesh and blood origin, then why not consider starting from this fellow?"
Where Zong Shiyue pointed was where the Wolf King was located across the carriage.
Lin Feng narrowed his eyes and then asked the Wolf King:
"If you were brought along, could you control the Tier Three power within Wolf Ao’s body? After all, that’s originally your power, and just a little influence, like delaying its release or making it more volatile..."
"This would greatly affect Wolf Ao’s combat status, creating an ideal opportunity for our counterattack."
Upon hearing Lin Feng’s inquiry, after a brief loss of focus and contemplation, the Wolf King responded:
"Unable to control, because most of the Tier Three flesh it absorbed has been reconstructed, incorporating its own genes for construction."
"But it does have some ability to influence."
"Due to this piece of flesh I possess, only has the level of early Tier Three, and its quantity is insufficient, I cannot affect Wolf Ao from a distance."
"These flesh tissues need to be directly injected into Wolf Ao’s body to stimulate its Tier Three power, accelerating its activation for a short time and consuming its life force, destroying its original memories in its brain."
"As for slowing down the activation of Tier Three power, with my current strength and capability, the effect isn’t significant and might instead add more Tier Three flesh reserve for Wolf Ao."
Upon hearing this, Lin Feng roughly understood the utilization strategy.
That would be using the piece of stripped Wolf King’s Flesh in front of him to ignite the Tier Three power within Wolf Ao’s body, accelerating the release of the Tier Three energy it absorbed.
In turn, this would exhaust it to death.
This also means the combat strategy cannot rely on melee as the decisive moment, because once the Tier Three power is stimulated, and Wolf Ao enters its Level 30 King state, even Lord Bishop should avoid its sharpness.
Therefore, melee could only serve as an aid.
For instance, breaking Wolf Ao’s Fine Steel Wolf Hide defense on the surface of its body, then Lin Feng can take the opportunity to fire armor-piercing rounds from a distance to implant the Wolf King’s Flesh.
While Lin Feng was reformulating the attack strategy, the more clear-minded Zong Shiyue beside him provided his perspective:
"Don’t rush for a decisive battle yet. You still wish to use this attack by the Evolved Desolate Wolves to gather evolutionary resources, don’t you?"
"For now, focus on that group of Late Tier One Desolate Wolves and the other Early Tier Two Desolate Wolf Beasts, using their flesh and life source material to enhance yourself."
"It’s best to catalyze the Wilderness Wolf you’re raising to the Second Stage, so at least in melee entanglement, it can better engage Wolf Ao."
"Then you can use the Wolf King’s Flesh to administer a strong dose to this giant wolf, forcing it to abandon combat and flee to the wilderness to suppress the uncontrollable Tier Three power within."
Lin Feng nodded, the proposal offered by Zong Shiyue was indeed feasible, but the question remained whether the Divine Dog could expand from Early Tier One to the Second Stage within a day?
