Seeing Lin Feng frown, Long Duo consoled him, “You don’t have to worry too much, Although your condition is very special, it has not worsened at the moment. This is a good sign. Perhaps you did not undergo metamorphosis only because you overexerted yourself.”

Even though Lin Feng Imew that his situation was definitely not as simple as what Long Duo had said, he still nodded. Only he understood this matter. He even suspected that the reason he had not undergone metamorphosis should be related to him fusing the dire beast genes. However, he could not

explicitly tell Long Duo this.

“This time, I came not only to check on your condition, but also to give you your reward. Take a look now. The 100,000 points should have already been transferred to your account.”

“A hundred thousand points?”

Lin Feng hurriedly checked and realized that he had already obtained more than 120,000 points. Other than the 100,000 reward points and the original points, the remaining points were from the dire beasts he had killed when he obtained during the double points period.

“I got the first place because Shui Yuansheng, Gao Tianci and Yu Shan sacrificed their lives.”

Lin Feng’s heart sank at the thought of Shui Yuansheng, Gao Tianci and Yu Shan. If they had not died, he really might not have been able to obtain the first place reward.

“Yu Shan isn’t dead, but his condition isn’t very good. He’s currently receiving treatment in the hospital at the base. We’ve also sent him his reward.”

“Yu Shan isn’t dead?”

Lin Feng was quite happy. This was a fortune amidst misfortunes.

“all right, you can rest first. I’ve already requested help from the other bases. This time, the dire beasts have only temporarily retreated. No one can guarantee that they won’t make a comeback. I have to go back and make proper arrangements.”

Long Duo left the ward, leaving Lin Feng alone.

...

Although he still felt weak all over, he was slowly recovering. Hence, he called the doctor over and asked him about his condition in detail.

“Doctor, what happened to me?”

The doctor’s expression was a little solemn as he asked in a low voice, “Lin Feng, did you have any conditions in the past?”

Lin Feng’s heart sank. He nodded and said, “I have a very rare form of Atypical Organ Failure. Is it worsening?”

“It has indeed worsened. Your cells are currently in a very active state, and your metabolism is very strong. This is too abnormal. If this continues, you might only have a year left to live.”

“Ayear…”

Lin Feng felt bitter. He originally had two years left to live, but he did not expect to only have one year left now. Perhaps this had something to do with his rash fusion of the genes of the dire beast king. Perhaps it was due to the backlash from unleashing Spiral Forces like mad.

But whatever the reason, it didn’t matter anymore. He only had a year left.

The doctor looked at Lin Feng and seemed to want to say something, but hesitated. However, as a doctor, he still said impartially, “We did a thorough checkup on you and found that your cells are very active. Moreover, there’s a miraculous power that can rapidly heal injuries. Therefore, we didn’t actually

give you any treatment. We just allowed you to recover on your own.”

“Then why do I still feel so weak now?”

“You are exhausted, and your body has reached its limit. You still need some time to recover. We will give you nutrient solutions to speed up your recovery. However, there is no treatment for your condition for the time being.”

“know. Only by breaking the genetic lock and restructuring my genes can I cure my strange illness.”

“You know all that? That’s good. You’re the hero of the Dragon Mountain Base. If you can kill a dire beast king, you can definitely break the genetic lock.”

The doctor said a few more words of encouragement before leaving the ward.

After a while, a nurse brought Lin Feng some nutrient solutions. After injecting the nutrient solutions, Lin Feng could clearly sense that his body was recovering rapidly, and he was gradually gaining strength.

Lin Feng paid the points to the hospital and asked for a few bottles of nutrient solutions. After injecting all of them into his body, he drifted off to sleep.

‘The next day, Lin Feng woke up feeling refreshed. If the doctor had not insisted on keeping him for further observation, he would have planned on getting discharged.

Hence, Lin Feng also pulled out the genetic fusion device to check his physical attributes.

Physique: 60.16

Strength: 52.83

Agility: 20.27

‘Technique: Basic Fist Technique (Proficient, can be improved to adept through continuous practice), Wild Bovine’s Might (Mastered, comprehended Wild Bovine’s True Intent), Nonuple Body Tempering (Mastered, can summon a Spiral Force), Lightning Arc Blade Technique (Proficient)

Genetic Fusion: Wild Bovine genes, Unicorn genes, Proboscis Beast genes, unknown dire beast genes

Genetic Capacity: 98%

Seeing such physical attributes, although Lin Feng had already expected it, he was still very shocked. His physique and strength had almost doubled, and his agility had also increased by quite a lot.

The fleshworm dire beast lived up to its status as a dire beast king. Its genes were extremely domineering, far stronger than the genes of the other three dire beasts he had fused previously.

However, even Lin Feng did not know the name of the fleshworm dire beast, so at the moment, the display is “unknown dire beast genes” on the genetic fusion device. However, this genuine dire beast king took up far too much genetic capacity.

Currently, Lin Feng’s genetic capacity had reached 98%. This meant that at the level of a professional martial artist, it was next to impossible for Lin Feng to fuse other dire beast genes again.

In other words, Lin Feng could no longer rely on fusing the genes of dire beasts to increase his strength in the future, unless he could break the genetic lock. Once he broke the genetic lock, his genes would become stronger, and his genetic capacity would naturally expand. Then, he would be able to

accommodate more dire beast genes.

However, breaking the genetic lock was not something that could be done in a short period of time, let alone something that Lin Feng could achieve at will.

As his body fully awakened, Lin Feng felt that his strength had almost doubled. However, Lin Feng did not know the exact extent of his physical strength. He could only find out after the actual test.

Apart from the increase in his physical strength, Lin Feng could also clearly feel that there seemed to be a miraculous power in his body that was rapidly healing his injuries.

At this thought, Lin Feng took out the fruit knife in the ward and slashed hard at the back of the hand.

Swish.

A very shallow wound appeared on Lin Feng’s arm. With Lin Feng’s current physique, if Lin Feng had not used all his strength, a mere fruit knife would not have been able to leave a wound on his body.

As soon as the wound appeared, it healed at a visible speed before Lin Feng’s eyes. In about a second or two, the wound had healed completely, without even a scar.

Seeing this scene, Lin Feng’s heart was shaken. He recalled the terrifying restorative power of the fleshworm dire beast. That was an ability close to limb regeneration. Even many experts who had broken the genetic lock did not have such an ability.

After fusing the genes of the fleshworm dire beast, Lin Feng had actually obtained such a fearsome ability. This might be Lin Feng’s greatest gain from fusing the genes of the fleshworm dire beast.

“This dire beast has such a terrifying ability. Just what kind of dire beast is it? Humans already have an in-depth understanding of the dire beast world. Why have we never encountered such a dire beast before?”

Lin Feng frowned and fell into deep thought.

He had the vague feeling that this fleshworm dire beast might very well tum out to be a huge problem..
