Chapter 157: The Method
Covered in gray dust, Zhou Liming was also enraged and suddenly clenched his fists tightly.
“Damn it, if you won’t let me have a good time, why should I let you have a good time?” With somewhat of a youthful temperament, Zhou Liming, in his annoyance, swung his fist and smashed it fiercely onto the Pig Beast’s head. The power of Zhou Lidan was terrifying; with a single strike, even without entering the Fierce Beast Form, it was incredibly powerful.
The skin of the Pig Beast was rough, which meant its defense was outstanding; among Level Three Fierce Beasts, it was definitely ranked high.
But Zhou Liming’s strength was too great; the force of this swinging punch was more than a thousand catties. Under one punch, even though the Pig Beast was fat and strong, it could not withstand it. It let out a loud snort and nearly failed to support itself, plunging its head down. Fortunately, the Pig Beast’s ability was indeed powerful; as its knees touched the ground, it scraped against the ground for friction, but then quickly stood up again.
Screaming with “oinks,” this Pig Beast finally became anxious, and the two ears held by Zhou Liming once again gathered orange-yellow light.
The appearance of energy power made Zhou Liming feel his hands go numb, and he abruptly released the hand still holding one of its ears. The formed light beam shot out without hesitation, then blasted into a building, blowing more than half of the five-story building away. Like it had gone mad, the Pig Beast sprayed wildly everywhere, a series of rumbling sounds rang out, and the surrounding buildings were almost turned into ruins by it, with broken walls everywhere.
No wonder people are not afraid of tigers, but are afraid of wild boars.
The destructive power of a Level Three Pig Beast was even above that of a Fourth Stage Rhinoceros Beast. Its strong endurance allowed it to use its Form Skill as if it were endless, squandering it to its heart’s content.
“Damn it, if I could also shoot eight or ten times like it, wouldn’t that be incredibly cool?”
Zhou Liming, realizing there was something wrong with his phrasing, could not help but give a dry laugh. He should be able to use it that many times; if he could really use it eight or ten times, with the destructive power of the Death Light, anyone who provoked him would directly have a city wiped out, leaving not even dregs behind, so who would still be arrogant?
After a bout of venting, it was impossible to always stay stiff; there would always be a time when it went soft.
After using its Form Skill more than ten times in a row, the Pig Beast finally became weak and limp. When walking, it no longer had its previous wildness, stumbling and panting heavily, with unsteady steps, looking like it might fall at any moment. Perhaps it really had overdrawn all its strength; this Pig Beast shook its head and finally “thumped” down onto the street, panting continuously.
Zhou Liming smiled, jumped down, and kicked this Pig Beast fiercely a few times, saying: “Run, go crazy, why don’t you continue?”
The kicked Pig Beast just let out a few “oink” sounds and let Zhou Liming kick it without reacting, just lying on the ground like a dead dog. However, Zhou Liming still caught a trace of fear for himself in its eyes. Do not forget, a Fierce Beast is also an animal; it is just that their abilities exceed human understanding of animals.
Fierce Beasts also have their own personalities and tempers; they are not wood…
Precisely because of this, Zhou Liming had the idea of taming them. As long as it is an animal, as long as it has its own thoughts, it is not impossible; the key is finding the right method.
Zhou Liming squatted in front of this Pig Beast, looking at its panting appearance, feeling very proud in his heart, and said with a cold smile: “Comparing endurance with me, even though you are a pig, you can’t possibly win.” He drooled and said: “Should I steam it, boil it, or braise it… I haven’t eaten twice-cooked pork in a long time, maybe I can have a taste.”
Suddenly, as if realizing something was wrong, Zhou Liming frowned and stood up; fortunately, no one saw his earlier actions, actually talking to a pig.
A few minutes later, this Pig Beast finally recovered some strength, then struggled to get up, making oinking sounds, ignoring Zhou Liming, and actually started gnawing on some flowers in the Small Town as if no one else was there, chewing them down into its stomach. A pig gnawing on peonies, having no appreciation for romance?
Zhou Liming was somewhat pleased; at least this Pig Beast was not like it was at the beginning.
Seeing that its gaze lacked the initial ferocity, Zhou Liming carefully walked to its side. Seeing it still ignored him and was just gnawing and eating, Zhou Liming hesitated for a moment, then jumped onto its back. To Zhou Liming’s delight, the Pig Beast only struggled slightly, then resignedly let Zhou Liming sit on its back, seemingly ignoring him.
“Hahahaha.” Zhou Liming laughed wildly, waving his hands and feet, almost rolling off the Pig Beast’s back, “It can really be tamed, Fierce Beasts can really be tamed.”
Humans knew too little about the world of Fierce Beasts, only knowing the tip of the iceberg. Humans now were like pioneers, exploring the mysteries of the Fierce Beast world. No one knew that Fierce Beasts could be tamed; if not for Zhou Liming living in this Fierce Beast Occupied Area, and having such a ridiculous idea, who would have thought that Fierce Beasts could be tamed?
But soon, Zhou Liming became worried, because he found that although this Pig Beast ignored him and let him ride on its back, the problem was, he could not command it to move.
Zhou Liming tried to act like he was riding a horse, clamping his legs against its belly, but what he got in return was just a cold snort from it, and it continued eating. In a moment, it had almost eaten all the flowers and plants in this row of the residential area, then walked to an elderly activity area in another residential area, gnawed off several juicy bamboo trees, and started chewing them loudly.
“Hehe!” Zhou Liming smiled bitterly; he had heard of riding horses, cows, sheep, and donkeys, but never heard of riding a pig; this was not a good mount.
After trying several methods and still unable to drive this Pig Beast, Zhou Liming saw its twitching ears and had an idea. He grabbed its ears and gave a pull; the Pig Beast actually stopped eating, and its expression became ferocious. Then Zhou Liming clamped his feet against its belly, and the Pig Beast spread its four hooves and started running wildly.
Its ears were like indicator rods; as long as Zhou Liming pulled its left ear, it would turn left, and pulling its right ear would make it turn right.
It seemed its ears were the control panel controlling it; when you let go of both its ears, it would stop. If you wanted it to continue running, grabbing its ears again would make it run. Zhou Liming tried it and completely understood how to control the Pig Beast this way; whether he wanted it to slow down or speed up, it could all be achieved through the ears.
“Tsk tsk, what high-tech transportation is far inferior to my biological transportation; it’s eco-friendly, energy-saving, and flexible, no need to worry about car accidents, nor about breaking down.” Zhou Liming was extremely happy, like a child getting a toy, controlling the Pig Beast to scurry everywhere in the Small Town. At terrifying speeds, the Pig Beast’s turning and flexibility were amazing; in this Small Town, it could still scurry around at speeds over a hundred kilometers per hour.
The Pig Beasts that had scattered earlier had not left yet but were wandering on the edge of the Small Town, foraging in the fields.
Stopping the Pig Beast, it had just recovered some strength, and having gone through a wild run, it was panting heavily again.
Riding on it, Zhou Liming suddenly slapped his own head and said: “Playing and playing, I forgot the serious business. I’m not here to find a mount, I’m here to make them meat pigs.” With this tossing about, it seemed like a short time, but it was already noon, with layers of clouds covering the sky, and the weather was a bit gloomy.
Seeming to remember something, Zhou Liming immediately pulled a long face, “It was this hard just to tame one Pig Beast; there are at least fifty or sixty here, when will I finish taming them?”
Zhou Liming found a red slogan strip, tied it around the neck of this Pig Beast he had tamed to mark it, and then smiled with satisfaction. Using this method to distinguish them, he wouldn’t need to worry about getting them mixed up later.
The key to taming Fierce Beasts was actually similar to taming wild horses; one had to exhaust their strength until they were as tired as a dead dog. Once you made them feel fear and left a shadow in their hearts, half the battle was won.
But saying it was easy, doing it was filled with difficulties.
The endurance of Fierce Beasts far exceeded that of Super Warriors by more than ten times, or even twenty times. Humans could only use Form Skills two or three times, but when Fierce Beasts used them, it was as if they were free, squandering them at will. Super Warriors with strong endurance were one thing, but ordinary Super Warriors would have been blasted to dust long ago, so what was there to tame? Fierce Beasts were not easy to deal with; one slip, and not even dregs would remain of oneself.
So for a seemingly simple task, probably no one other than a freak like Zhou Liming could complete it.
But regardless, taming this one Pig Beast made Zhou Liming somewhat excited, so he only hesitated for a moment, then gave a shout of joy, ejected himself, and roared: “My dear meat pigs, here I come.” He had made up his mind that no matter what, he would subdue this group of Pig Beasts.
Having understood the trick to taming them, Zhou Liming wouldn’t be stupid enough to do it like before.
Zhou Liming instantly entered his Fierce Beast Form, imitating the Pig Beast, charging and crashing, and plunged right into the group of Pig Beasts. Amidst their oinking calls, his powerful strength allowed Zhou Liming to pick up a Pig Beast and throw it dozens of meters away, “bam” onto the ground. Like throwing toys, Pig Beasts were sent into the air one by one, then fell freely to the ground.
Thus, the enraged Pig Beasts sprayed out beams of light one after another, covering Zhou Liming like a storm.
His powerful scales basically ignored the Form Skills of these Level Three Fierce Beasts. Zhou Liming let these Form Skills blast onto his body without slowing down, tossing these Pig Beasts around time and again. They were sent into the air repeatedly; after more than a dozen times, the Pig Beasts all over the ground could only let out miserable oinking screams, lacking even the strength to struggle to their feet.
