My Evolution Starting from a Giant Tree

Chapter 18: Domesticating Animals

Lin Meng turned his gaze to a branch not far away.

There, one prey after another was tied up by his branch and hung in the air.

A monkey with golden hair was very dazzling under the morning light.

Its bright eyes were wide open.

Unlike ordinary monkeys, this monkey was neither noisy nor loud.

However, Lin Meng believed that...

If it was not for his branches binding the monkey, it would definitely be the one making the most noise.

After all, the spirituality in the little monkey's eyes could not fool anyone.

"A very smart monkey."

He silently gave an evaluation in his heart.

Lin Meng's gaze moved along.

Other than the monkey, there was a bison, a white crane, and four wolves.

And...

A crew-cut, white hair, and silver fur.

This was the honey badger.

When Lin Meng saw the honey badger, he was surprised.

The honey badger also had a nickname, known as "crew-cut bro."

It meant that life and death were indifferent and, if you didn't like it, you would do something about it.

It was also known as "Africa's first brother."

However, this guy was usually distributed in Africa, West Asia, and South Asia?

Why did it come to the Mainland?

Could it be that the spiritual energy had recovered and this animal had begun to migrate?

As he thought, Lin Meng looked at the honey badger up and down.

It was 70 centimeters long and looked quite small and exquisite.

He even looked cute and silly from his facial features.

The top of his head was flat, and his back was covered with a layer of white hair. He looked very much like the big brother of society who had a buzz cut and deliberately dyed his hair white.

It was no wonder that some people called him "Brother Buzz Cut."

This really lived up to his name.

...

In an empty space in the canyon, several tree cages of different sizes were sitting around a thick willow tree.

And in the tree cages, most of the animals were quietly crawling.

However, what made people feel helpless was that...

In one of the tree cages.

The white-haired honey badger kept using its claws to dig at the ground. It had an aura that it would not stop until it dug through the ground.

"How stubborn!"

Lin Meng sighed and chose to ignore this stubborn honey badger.

It had to be said that with the recovery of spiritual energy, even the animals had a little more spirituality.

Just like the golden monkey, Lin Meng just put him down from the branch.

He ran to Lin Meng's side.

Although the monkey's round eyes kept rolling, the appearance of being tamed could not be faked.

Not only the monkey was tamed.

The bison with a crescent-like black horn on its head also obediently stayed by Lin Meng's side.

But the honey badger was different.

As the most difficult animal to domesticate, he used reality to tell Lin Meng what was called stubbornness.

He had just put down the branch.

He was like an arrow that had left the bow as he sprinted into the distance.

Lin Meng was so angry that he directly lashed out with his whip.

However, this guy was also stubborn. He would rather run away with Lin Meng's whip.

Even now, he was imprisoned in a tree cage made of branches by Lin Meng but he still did not give up on escaping.

"You guys are still obedient."

He turned his gaze to the other animals in the tree cage.

Not to mention the honey badger, the other animals made Lin Meng very surprised.

Especially that bison.

Race: Mutated Bison.

Lifespan: 4/30.

Level: Entry Level 2.

Innate Talent: Crescent-Shaped HornsThe most terrifying weapon is the fierce and extremely sharp horns, capable of tearing an enemy apart in an instant.

Special Ability: Earth StompRaising its forelimbs, the terrifying power is enough to shake the Earth.

Although this bison is only entry level 2.

Its innate talent is really strong.

One had to know that even the red fox that Lin Meng favored only had one special ability and the peregrine falcon had one innate talent.

But this bison actually had both innate talent and special ability.

One had to say, this talent made Lin Meng look forward to it.

And here, what was worth mentioning was:

Innate talent was an innate talent and it was a terrifying ability that could grow.

The stronger one was, the more terrifying one's innate talent would be.

Just like the peregrine falcon's innate talentthe bullet dive. It would constantly sublimate along with the peregrine falcon's strength.

In the future, it would be like a bolt of lightning and it was not impossible to eventually pierce through the enemy in an instant.

As for special abilities, this was different.

It was an ability that could only be developed by chance or by luck.

If it was not trained, its strength would stop there.

...

The red fox, the peregrine falcon, the bison, and this intelligent golden monkey could be nurtured.

Lin Meng thought as he gently stroked the golden monkey's head with a branch.

As for the others, the white crane, the wolf, and the honey badger...

Before he tamed them, it was not worth it for Lin Meng to expend his essence to nurture them.

Moreover, Lin Meng's patience was limited.

If he failed to tame them a few times, Lin Meng did not mind killing them.

He would turn them into his evolution points.

One had to know that Lin Meng's need for evolution points was extremely urgent.

Lin Meng himself had so many abilities that were waiting to be strengthened and upgraded.

New abilities were also waiting to be developed.

Moreover, he still needed to use evolution points to reach the even more terrifying tier 2.

Thinking of this, Lin Meng couldn't help but feel a little excited.

His current strength was already so powerful at tier 1.

Then how terrifying would a tier 2 be?

Right now, Lin Meng's main body, the willow tree, was already 32 meters tall and its trunk diameter had reached one to two meters.

Moreover, Lin Meng could feel that his growth speed was still accelerating.

Perhaps it was because he had awakened his innate talent, super regeneration. Lin Meng could feel that there was an endless stream of vitality in his body.

If he did not consume it, this rich vitality would continue to accelerate his growth.

Until one day, the sky above Lin Meng's willow tree blocked countless rays of sunlight and its roots extended for countless kilometers.

Other than its body getting bigger...

The most terrifying root in the world was even stronger than the bark.

Just based on its current hardness.

Putting everything else aside, it should be able to withstand a round of cannonballs being fired.

If it couldn't even withstand a cannonball, then it would be meaningless. The moment the humans discovered themselves, they would be finished.

Cannonballs were only the most common type of human weapon.

The truly terrifying weapons were rarely revealed by humans.

For example, biological weapons, genetic weapons, and the most terrifying mass destruction type weapons: nuclear bombs and hydrogen bombs.

Lin Meng clearly knew that before he had the ability to resist these weapons, he definitely couldn't take the initiative to expose himself in front of the humans.

That was tantamount to courting death.

As a human, Lin Meng deeply understood the principle of caution.

If the human race felt threatened by them, they would do anything to destroy them.

If necessary, they would use nuclear bombs and hydrogen bombs.

Therefore, playing dirty and developing was the way to survive.
