End of the World: My Items Can Be Upgraded Infinitely

Lin Feng lowered his movement speed and turned into a bright yellow light, traveling through the streets and alleys.

In some road corners, he saw opened sewer entrances with traces of bugs inside.

As Lin Feng expected, the Zerg did not destroy the city, but directly integrated into it, using the existing sewer system to build nests to survive.

However, this is not common sense.

Just like people cannot return to caves to live in groups, the urban system is incompatible with the habits of the Zerg.

If it weren't for the purpose of destroying and devouring the humans in the city, the Zerg would probably have no interest in the Iron Jungle.

With doubts, Lin Feng groped forward cautiously.

He walked past the edge of a previous war.

At this time, the remains of insect corpses everywhere have been cleaned up. Except for the traces of damage caused by shotguns, it is difficult to tell that a fierce urban street battle just broke out here three or four hours ago.

It is estimated that after Lin Feng and others evacuated, the Red Beetle came out to clean up.

The land cruiser could only move along the main road, so there was no time to collect the black spine corpses in other corner alleys. The situation at that time did not allow everyone to stay for a long time.

Who knows when the next wave of Zerg attacks will come. If there are twice as many Tier 2 tiger spine worms next time, it will be difficult for Lin Feng to escape and support him. The more than 100 awakened ones he has accumulated through hard work will probably be destroyed by someone. The tiger spine insects that only slip through the net will be eliminated directly.

The retreat was very hasty, and the battlefield was not even cleaned.

At this moment, Lin Feng was not surprised to see the clean streets and shopping malls.

But after taking a few steps, he suddenly stopped.

Because the glass at the entrance of a shopping mall was shattered by a shotgun, but the broken glass on the ground was swept and piled in the corner.

The strange-smelling insect blood splashed on the ground was not licked clean by red beetles. There was a slippery film of detergent remaining on it, exuding the slightest fragrance.

How can low-level Zerg have this kind of awareness, and it is impossible for them to clean up construction waste and use detergent.

There is only one possibility, that is, there are still surviving humans in this city that has been occupied by the Zerg.

It was they who used tools to clear the battlefield.

Thinking of this, Lin Feng became even more confused.

How did this group of people avoid the patrols and sweeps of the Zerg and survive in a city where food was scarce.

Unfortunately, telepathy cannot detect life forms below level 7, and ordinary people are not within the sensing range.

With doubts, Lin Feng slowly stepped into the mall.

After spending more than ten minutes searching carefully inside and out, except for some traces of human activities, no one was found.

But some traces are obviously new, such as the soil where the footprints fell, which is still wet.

Following the footsteps, these people left the mall and walked deeper into Jiacheng.

Lin Feng hid in the shadow of the corner and continued to move forward.

He had to find this group of people to understand the strange situation in Jiacheng.

Why can human survivors coexist with Zerg?

Bugs can't talk, but people can.

As Linfeng went deeper and deeper into the city center, he passed by a city park. The forest in midsummer was full of green leaves, just like the sides of the road...

The red beetles did not consume these low-fat foods.

The situation in the suburbs of Haicheng is completely different.

The Zerg seem to regard this city as their own homeland, trying to preserve its former appearance as much as possible.

And soon, Lin Feng, who was hiding in the corner, saw a few figures emerging from the park and forest in the distance.

Sure enough, there are survivors!

Lin Feng's eyes narrowed and he did not step out immediately to shout. Instead, he hid aside and observed the behavior of these people.

What was unexpected was that these survivors actually planted some kind of crops on the land of the park.

They use shovels, hoes and other agricultural tools to loosen the soil, and they look like normal humans working.

At present, if Jiacheng had not been captured by the Zerg, Lin Feng would have almost believed it.

Such a blatant planting behavior, without the acquiescence of the Zerg, they are just a bunch of lambs waiting to be slaughtered.

Lin Feng thought of some possibility.

Simply relying on force to advance and conquer cities and territories will definitely not be able to support such a large number of Zerg. There must be other ways to obtain energy stably.

It has been almost a month since the Zerg invasion, but humans have not yet understood the social and ecological structure of this alien Zerg.

The organizational order, social form within the ethnic group, and the most important point...

Their basic energy acquisition method!

The water source is only the basic material for obtaining energy. Just like human beings living on Blue Star, they rely on the photosynthesis of autotrophic organisms such as plants to accumulate solar energy into chemical energy such as sugar, starch, and protein.

But photosynthesis can only occur on the surface of a planet that is exposed to sunlight, while the Zerg mother nest is always a hundred meters underground, or even deeper.

In the airtight underground, let alone sunlight, even the existing life can only survive with some ancient bacteria and primitive low-level cells.

As a result, the Zerg must rely on other methods unknown to humans to obtain additional biomass.

So when Lin Feng saw the scene of survivors farming in the area occupied by the Zerg, he would think of...

Could it be the Zerg that are enslaving humans?

Force them to grow food for the Zerg.

Just like the parasitic mother body that controlled Cheng Zhan, she revealed before her death that this alien insect race had invaded multiple planets, and the red beetles at the bottom were the alien life forms they had captured and enslaved.

Perhaps in the future, after humans are really defeated, they will also become the objects of Zerg slavery to help them complete logistics supplies or take care of high-level Zerg offspring...

Thinking of this, Lin Feng, who was about to ask, bent down and quietly retreated.

After leaving the park, he continued to go deeper into the city center.

Not long after, after crossing two districts, Lin Feng used telepathy to detect a group of dense light spots within five kilometers from the city center.

From the size and brightness of the light source, they all have a life value of about 100.

It should be a group of black-spine insects in the early stage of the first order.

But the problem is that they are too densely gathered, even one per square meter, which is much denser than the swarms that Lin Feng had previously detected.

As he continued to go deeper, another possibility soon emerged in his mind.

Could it be that the light spots in the induction are not Zerg, but a group of human awakeners?

This idea has been circling in Lin Feng's mind since it appeared...

Ten minutes later, Lin Feng arrived a hundred meters away from the gathering of light spots, and then squatted on the top of a tall building.

The target location is a large chain mall, Wanya Shopping Center.

Seeing this scene, Lin Feng is more certain of his inner guess.

Because this mall cannot accommodate hundreds of black-backed worms, only small human awakeners can survive in it.

Soon, the humanoid creatures that walked out of the mall gate confirmed Lin Feng's inner guess.

A group of human survivors left the mall and went to the nearby green belt.

There, they also planted many crops.

Seeing that there were only five people, Lin Feng quietly moved over and came behind them.

Controlling the strength, he knocked out three of them with a knife, and then pointed the gun at the last man and woman who had not reacted.

Their strength is stronger than the other three. They are all lv13 or above in the first stage of the middle stage, and they are considered small leaders in this gathering place.

"Raise your hands, don't move!"

Lin Feng shouted in a low voice, and at the same time released his momentum as a second-stage middle awakener, which scared the two people to turn around and kneel down in a hurry.

Seeing the foreign survivors, the expressions of the two people seemed a little hesitant and shocked.

It seems that there are hardly any other outsiders here.

After all, in the outer circle of the city, a large number of insect swarms gather to guard and block "invaders".

"You... you are from outside?!"

The man who was kneeling on the ground and raised his hands was the first to react. He knew every face in the gathering place, but the young man in front of him, both in appearance and in his aura, was not in his memory.

Lin Feng nodded slightly and asked back:

"Jiacheng has been captured by the Zerg, why are you still alive? Why didn't the Zerg swarms in the outer circle of the city attack you?"

The man swallowed his saliva, his expression slightly excited, while the numb woman on the side flashed a glimmer of spirit after hearing Lin Feng's admission.

"We... we are kept in captivity by them."

"The managers of the gathering place, they are a group of..."

A trace of fear appeared on the man's face, and the woman who came to her senses on the side gritted her teeth and added:

"A group of insect people who are neither human nor ghost!"

"There is a bug parasitic on their backs, which can control their speech and thinking, and rule and enslave these survivors."

Lin Feng nodded, not surprised at all.

Since the queen mother in Haicheng can use the parasitic mother body to infiltrate the high-level of the 13th Division and steal intelligence, the Zerg queen mothers in other places can definitely rely on parasitic abilities to control and enslave local humans.

But the man and woman in front of them were a little surprised by Lin Feng's natural look.

They thought that if this news was passed on to the outside world, it would definitely cause an uproar.

After all, the Zerg, who have always been low-intelligence and stupid, actually have high intelligence and can even communicate directly with humans through parasitism...

"Go on, the purpose of the Zerg keeping you captive."

Lin Feng raised the muzzle of the gun, his tone stern, he did not trust the other party, even if they were not parasitized by the insects.

The man was shocked and said quickly:

"My name is Huang Qixin, she is Lin Ping."

"The Zerg arrived here half a month ago."

"There were still tens of thousands of Jiacheng locals who stayed in the city. Unfortunately, the Federation did not send garrisons. We were surrounded by a large number of Zerg on the way to evacuation. A large number of survivors had to retreat back to the city..."

"The last few thousand people hid in the center of Jiacheng."

"But that day, the Zerg did not launch an attack, but a few people walked out of the Zerg tide... Zerg people."

"They announced that we could survive , as long as you obey their orders and don't leave the center of Jiacheng, you can have the resources of the entire city. "

"After that... our nightmare began."

"The survivors were captured in the center of the mall, where the insects created a living flesh and blood incubator. We were forced to enter it and force reproduction in it..."

"Two weeks after conception, they will remove the placenta in the woman's belly."

"Put it in that flesh and blood object for nourishment."

As he said this, Huang Qixin glanced at the woman beside him.

Lin Ping's haggard and numb expression, as well as her shriveled abdomen, confirmed his words.

After Huang Qixin finished speaking with lingering fear, Lin Ping added:

"You... the explosion in the east of the city this morning, was it the federal army coming to rescue us?"

Lin Feng did not answer, but shook his head slightly, and his eyes became colder.

It seems that the ambition of this queen is no less than that of Haicheng.

The fighting strength of her subordinates is not as good as that of Haicheng, but she is already planning to seize the reproductive capacity of humans, wanting to completely control humans and use them for her own benefit.

The children raised by the Zerg have mixed into the safe zone of humans. Without being physically parasitized, any scanning method is useless.

The subtle mental control and brainwashing of thoughts are more terrible than all other methods.

At this moment, Lin Feng even had the idea of ​​destroying this gathering place controlled by the Zerg.

After all, if they are allowed to develop like this, they might come up with some strange things.

Compared with the human Zerg gene warriors, will the Zerg also mass-produce high-IQ combat-type second-order Zerg people in the future? !

To speed up the disintegration of human resistance.

Thinking of this, Lin Feng looked at the survivors in front of him, and his eyes became colder and colder.

Although he tried hard to save some people, he could not save all the thousands of people in the entire gathering place.

This means going to war with the Zerg in the whole city.

Rather than just breaking out from one side.

In comparison, killing is always easier than saving people.

If they stay here, they will always be a hidden danger...

Just when Lin Feng decided to pull the trigger, suddenly, a group of humans came from behind.

Most of them were just enhanced people, but behind these people, stood a strange man in a cloak, its back bulged high under the cloak, like a hunchbacked old woman.

And the strength of this strange man reached the early stage of the second stage.

Lin Feng's eyes quickly showed its identification data:

"Zerg mother, lv21/29"

"HP 250, physique 210, spirit 290"

While confirming the identity of the other party, Lin Feng's gun was already aimed at it.

Then, the hoarse voice of the parasitic mother came from the numb crowd:

"Hello, brave human warriors..."

Lin Feng's mouth corners slightly raised:

"Disperse these people, you should know that they have no effect on me."

The old woman laughed and said indifferently:

"The weakest point of human beings is kindness, whether it is to treat their own kind or other lives."

"So only a few strong people can overcome this nature and become the real rulers of your tribe."

"Then they keep singing the greatness of this emotion, trying to turn all living beings into lambs to be slaughtered at will, in order to facilitate their long-term rule..."

Lin Feng frowned slightly, suddenly turned the muzzle of the gun, and fired two shots behind him! !

I saw a man and a woman kneeling behind Lin Feng, with a deep hole in the center of their eyebrows, slowly falling to the ground.

And Lin Ping was holding a sharp spike in her hand, which was still sticky with purple-black smelly pus, which looked extremely poisonous.

Lin Feng turned around and switched the god-level pistol in his hand back to the lv25 armor-piercing magnetic cannon, then looked at the parasitic mother behind the crowd with interest:

"What conditions did you promise them to be willing to die?"

The old woman waved her shriveled fingers to disperse the humans in front of her, and replied:

"Her unborn child and freedom."

"You have an almost morbid obsession with sacrifice for your relatives and descendants, and this is easy to use..."

"And you humans have a famous saying,"

"As long as the benefits are enough, you can trade everything."

Lin Feng smiled and nodded, and turned the muzzle of the gun aimed at the mother to the Wanya Shopping Mall not far away:

"You are right."

"So if the people inside take another step, they will stay here forever."

The parasitic mother then looked embarrassed and waved her hand to stop her men from continuing to evacuate.

Then, as if sensing something, he bowed and said respectfully:

"Your Majesty wants to talk to you in person..."

Lin Feng frowned slightly:

"I have nothing to talk to you about."

"I am more interested in you than meeting the Queen Mother."

However, as soon as the words fell, the parasitic mother in front of him fell to her knees, then trembled and twitched all over, and the tumor on her back swelled several times.

The next moment, a gentle female voice came from the mouth of the old woman insect man who was lying on the ground with four legs:

"So how much benefit do I need to impress you..."

"For example, one hundred second-level tiger spine insects?"

Some people say that the Zerg are not smart, but that's not necessarily true.

The plot is going to start later, so go for it!
