Chapter 229: Control Room

Buzz.

The Mental Power Sphere trembled, and Lin Feng’s mental power erupted from his mind like a tide.

The invisible mental power was real. Lin Feng’s mental power swept towards the two lizards like an actual storm.

Boom.

The two lizards felt a splitting headache. In an instant, they both went berserk. They even fell to the ground and collided heavily with it, causing the entire ruin to shake.

“So strong?”

Lin Feng was a little surprised. He did not expect his mental storm to be so effective. However, his mental storm could not last for too long. In fact, it could only last for a moment.

Eleven seconds, twelve seconds, thirteen seconds, fourteen seconds…

The two lizards roared wildly. How much their heads hurt was evident from the way they smashed into the ground hard. Lin Feng rushed up at once, gathered all his strength, and smashed towards the lizard’s wound again.

Bang. Bang. Bang.

He struck again and again, yet he could not worsen the wound no matter how hard he tried.

Fifteen seconds, sixteen seconds, seventeen seconds…

When even Lin Feng’s head was going a little dizzy and his Mental Power Sphere dimmed, Lin Feng could no longer unleash the mental storm. The two lizards raised their heads again, revealing ferocious and bloodthirsty gazes.

“Grr…”

The two lizards were incomparably enraged. One of them charged ruthlessly at Lin Feng with its head.

Lin Feng’s body was sent flying backward. At the same time, the lizard opened its ravenous maws and tried to swallow Lin Feng in one gulp.

Lin Feng’s entire body was already severely injured. Although his injuries were rapidly recovering from the undying characteristic, there was no time for Lin Feng to recover at all. In particular, overusing the mental power in his mind caused Lin Feng to be on the brink of fainting.

“Get lost!”

Lin Feng roared and gathered all the strength in his body again. He stomped hard with his foot and retreated by leveraging on the force of the lizard, before landing from the air.

Lin Feng panted heavily. He had consumed too much energy and was too weary just now. Furthermore, he had overused his mental power and his head was spinning. He was relying entirely on his will to hold out now.

The bones and flesh in his body were collapsing. Apart from being shattered by the lizard’s tail, the rays used by the lizard were also destroying Lin Feng’s body.

Destruction and repair. Lin Feng had never sensed the changes in the cells in his body so closely. But now that he was almost at the end of his rope, he could sense the various changes in the cells in his body.

Some serious injuries were injuries from being rammed into by the lizard. Actually, it was relatively easy to recover from injuries. However, the lizards’ rays contained a strange force that constantly destroyed the various cells in Lin Feng’s body. As each cell broke and died, Lin Feng’s injuries worsened.

However, at the same time, Lin Feng’s other cells were constantly dividing to replace those destroyed cells.

“This is…?”

Lin Feng suddenly felt that he never had a complete understanding of his body. He did not know how his innate abilities were born, be it his strength ability, undying characteristic, armor, Petrification Technique, or Sharp Horn.

He had never understood his body so clearly as he did when seriously injured today.

In the dark, a flash of inspiration seemed to appear in Lin Feng’s mind. He wanted to grasp it, but had no clue.

What exactly were life transitions?

Were they not just the sublimation of life, the evolution of life? And the body was their foundation. If one couldn’t even understand their own body, how could they evolve and sublimate?

Lin Feng suddenly felt that he had taken the wrong path in the past. Or rather, his efforts had been misplaced in the past. There had clearly always been a path before him, yet he had never taken it.

If he could survive this time, he would definitely focus on studying his body. Perhaps the second life transition was hidden in his body!

But could he survive after sustaining such heavy injuries?

“All right, the door is open. Hurry up and go in!”

Longbetham’s urgent voice suddenly sounded in Lin Feng’s mind.

“The door is open?”

Lin Feng was a little surprised. It turned out that 20 seconds had already passed unknowingly while he was risking his life just now. Longbetham did not disappoint Lin Feng and opened the door.

Rumble.

The door of the control room began to open slowly. The lizard in front of Lin Feng had already opened its bloody mouth and was about to bite down hard. Lin Feng suddenly pushed at it with his arm with all his might.

Crunch.

Lin Feng’s arm was bitten off by the lizard. Even injured fingers would hurt, let alone an arm. Lin Feng almost fainted from the pain, especially now that his mental power was exhausted, and he was on the verge of collapse at every moment.

However, he cut his losses and sent his arm into the lizard’s mouth. Then, using the little time the lizard used to bite off its arm, he stomped on the lizard’s head with one leg and quickly leaped towards the door.

The door was slowly opening. It was very slow, just enough to accommodate an ordinary person. Lin Feng leaped to the door, rolled forward, and entered through the gap.

The two lizards were furious. They roared at the door and even slammed into it with all their might, but the door did not budge at all. It was completely undamaged.

“Phew…”

Lin Feng heaved a sigh of relief, but the door was still slowly opening. Lin Feng hurriedly said, “Longbetham, close the door quickly!”

“It cannot be closed. The door can only be closed after it has been completely opened. By then, they will have already caught up to us. You had better find a place to hide first. In your current state, if they catch up to you, you will definitely die!”

Lin Feng was indeed on the verge of collapse. He had lost an arm, and his body was riddled with internal injuries. If not for the rapid recovery from his undying characteristic, he would probably be unable to move now.

He looked around and realized that there were many devices around. There was a very sci-fi feel to it.

This was indeed the control room. If Lin Feng had the time, he could get Longbetham to try to control the ruins and close the defense mechanism in the ruins. Then, the mission would be complete. He only needed to contact Sage Kang and get the Sages to send experts into the ruins.

But now, as the door slowly opened, the two lizards were constantly roaring, ready to charge in at any moment. Lin Feng did not have time to stay in the control room at all.

“Longbetham, there must be some emergency passages in the control room, right?”

“They should be in front. Hurry up and find them. Those things are about to enter.”

Lin Feng hurriedly walked towards a passageway beside the control room. The passageway led downstairs. As Lin Feng walked, the lights in the passageway lit up.

Behind him, Lin Feng heard the footsteps and roars of the two lizards. They were still hot on his heels.

Just as Lin Feng was uncertain how long he could hold out for, another door suddenly appeared in front of him. Moreover, the path had already come to an end. There was no more path ahead, only this door.

“What should I do?”

Lin Feng was dumbfounded. There was no more path ahead, and there were two lizards behind him. This time, it seemed like he had really reached a dead end.
