Wasteland: My Items Can Be Infinitely Upgraded-Chapter 493 - 245: Beastification State, Tier Three Combat, Desert Wolf’s Shadow

After the Rock Horse Armor erupted with astounding power, the Tier Two Grand Priest realized that the opponent had already unleashed the Ascension Potion, entering the Second Stage and transforming into the Biological Demon Armor.

This was no time to hold back.

One must utilize every skill to drag the opponent to the point where the armor’s functionality is completely exhausted, leading to a direct collapse.

And this was the original plan arranged by Father Su An before the duel.

The Grand Priest immediately followed the agreed-upon strategy, unhesitatingly absorbing the remaining small amount of Tier Two Holy Spring Water within the Undying Holy Armor, instantly restoring the body to its peak state while activating another part of the alien gene.

The Desert Wolf Bloodline contained within the Desert Wolf Source Material manifested at this moment, notably altering the appearance of the Grand Priest, especially the genetic traits of the Clan Leader-level Desert Wolf.

The most prominent feature was the luxuriant fur.

The gene from the Desert Wolf would first harden the carrier’s skin and hair, followed by the expansion of muscles in the limbs, and sharp teeth and claws emerging from the ends.

Moreover, they were metallic teeth and claws, incredibly sharp.

After completing the initial activation and assimilation, a Level 20 Tier Two Evolver like the Grand Priest, by absorbing the early Tier Two Clan Leader-level Desert Wolf Source Material, could receive a physique enhancement exceeding fifty percent.

This is reflected in aspects such as strength and speed.

Most importantly, this additional enhancement does not have the bottleneck of tier evolution limits, meaning it can allow the Grand Priest’s state, like the Ascension Potion-enhanced Rock Horse Armor, to break through the early Two Tier limit and reach combat power equivalent to mid-Tier Two.

This would be enough to compensate for the defect of losing speed enhancement after the Undying Holy Armor suffered severe damage.

At this moment, the incomplete Undying Holy Armor could at most provide intelligent combat assistance and minimal protection.

Of course, the most crucial aspect was to conceal the external deformity when the Grand Priest entered the Beastification State.

After transforming into a Desert Wolf Warrior, combined with the Grand Priest’s own Physical Enhancement Superpower, although the power was still a bit lacking, the speed genuinely broke through the early Tier Two.

The original speed of a hundred meters per second, with the use of personal superpowers, could reach one hundred and fifty meters, plus the additional enhancement from the Beastification mode, could easily break through a hundred meters.

At the same time, the Undying Holy Armor’s lightness and agility made the transformed Desert Wolf Warrior Grand Priest more agile and responsive than the Rock Horse Armor in explosive state.

And at this moment, what the Desert Wolf Warrior needed to do was to conduct a primal hunting filled with wildness on the stage.

Whether it was the wolf pack once hunting large herbivores or now the Desert Wolf hunting Rock-Horned Horses, for the relatively smaller Wolf Race in terms of physique, a direct confrontation had never yielded victory.

After all, the size and power gap have always existed, even the Clan Leader-level Rock Horse Giant Beasts could easily surpass the same level Desert Giant Wolves in a power duel.

One was a colossal beast starting at over twenty tons, comparable to the giant beasts of Earth’s ancient dinosaur periods!

One was a slender, flexible top predator, weighing less than half of a Rock Horse Giant Beast.

As long as Desert Wolves have some sense, they wouldn’t confront Rock-Horned Horses head-on.

The hunting strategy employed by the Wolf Race was to rely on long-distance raids to exhaust the prey’s state as much as possible.

For example, the ancestors of Desert Wolves, originating from the Old Earth’s era North American wilderness wolf packs, when hunting yaks several times larger in size, would adopt a strategy of exhausting the enemy by taking turns.

First, they would engage in a surprise attack, only needing to inflict minor wounds on the prey, such as a bite on the hind leg or lower belly, to instill fear in the prey while causing it to bleed continuously.

This step could be done or not done, but if accomplished, it would greatly increase the chance of a successful hunt.

Following this was the pursuit tug-of-war, which was the key and essence of the wolf pack’s hunt.

During the chase, the wolf pack, relying on its slightly higher burst trait, would drive the target prey into a frantic escape, unleashing survival instincts, irrationally depleting its stamina.

In fact, the endurance of many large herbivores was stronger than that of predators, as they had to endure harsh environments, making them more resilient and better suited for long treks.

Such as camels and mountain goats.

But this sustained activity was built on a low-energy state.

Even if the current Evolutionary Desolate Beast Rock Horse Herds could migrate thousands of kilometers on the wasteland, their pace was only three to four kilometers per hour.

It was basically a brisk walking state. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

To make them sustain bursts of fast running, they could only last three to four hours at most, while in the Three Days in the Sky, under the Scorching Sun exposed wasteland, one or two hours would exhaust a Rock-Horned Horse.

However, compared to other Evolution Beasts or Human Evolvers, this endurance and stamina were already at the ceiling level.

Humans, without wearing Power Armor or driving mobility tools, could only endure for tens of minutes or half an hour before falling into dehydration leading to heat stroke, even causing heat-induced illness.

The strategy adopted by the wolf pack was to keep the target prey in a continual frantic escape state, depleting its stamina as quickly as possible.

As for the wolf pack, it employed a strategy of pre-arranged layout and ambush, with members dispersed along the prey’s escape route.

This way, each member only needed to complete its accelerated pursuit segment before handing over the hunting relay stick to the next member.

The original extreme running distance of several tens of kilometers was divided into several segments by the wolf pack’s leapfrog means.
