Wasteland: My items are infinitely upgraded

The middle-aged man walked straight up to them.

Shen Yue took a deep breath, swallowed the food in her mouth, and like a guilty child who had done something wrong, she looked up, forced a smile, and respectfully greeted the middle-aged man:

"Greetings, Lord Han."

The man nodded, seemingly having some impression of Shen Yue, and then turned to Lin Feng, who was opposite her:

"Is this the newly arrived Upper Citizen?"

Shen Yue then explained Lin Feng's background, only saying that he was a distinguished guest of Father Su An, without mentioning the Bishop.

After listening, the man seemed thoughtful and looked at Lin Feng:

"With Su An's recommendation, you should soon be able to join Oasis and become an Upper Citizen. Take some time to walk around and see the place."

Lin Feng quickly stood up and followed up with:

"Thank you, Lord Han."

The man hummed in acknowledgment and then walked towards the depths of the second floor.

From there, he took the stairs to the third floor of the cafeteria.

Unnoticed, Shen Yue breathed a sigh of relief, patted her towering chest under her white robe, and calmed her racing heart.

She looked at the figure of the Chief Administrator Han disappearing at the staircase entrance, her eyes filled with a hint of envy.

"That's Han Tao?"

Lin Feng's voice came from the side.

Shen Yue snapped back to reality and nodded:

"That's right. The most legendary and powerful Evolver in Oasis Town for over a hundred years."

"Twelve years ago, he captured a leader-level Rockhorn Horse with his late-stage First Order strength, and from then on, he soared to the sky, obtaining the status of Oasis Upper Citizen, and soon after, he was promoted to a Second Order Evolver, becoming the first Chief Administrator from a Wastelander background in the history of Oasis Town."

After the introduction, Shen Yue noticed that Lin Feng was somewhat puzzled, seemingly unable to understand the latter part of her words.

Then she realized that Lin Feng currently knew nothing about the upper structure of Oasis, so Shen Yue ate the evolved meat on her plate while patiently explaining:

"The top layer of Oasis consists of five hundred First Class Upper Citizens, and above them, those responsible for decision-making and management are under a council system. The members of the council are called Chief Administrators."

"The council consists of nine Chief Administrators, and they are the highest authority in Oasis."

"Moreover, the minimum strength of these nine Chief Administrators must be Second Order Evolvers."

"The Church occupies three seats, including the Bishop, as well as two other Father."

"Secondly, the Li family, who established the Farm Village, holds two seats, the Li family head and his clansmen."

"The remaining four seats are divided among Dawn, Motorbike, and the Fifth Village's Wasteland Hunter Guild, each occupying one seat, as for the last seat..."

"It belongs to Han Tao, Lord Han, and he is also the only one among the nine Chief Administrators without a power background."

After listening to Shen Yue's introduction, Lin Feng narrowed his eyes and immediately asked another question:

"Besides the nine Chief Administrators, there should be other Second Order Evolvers in Oasis, right? Like Father Su An."

Shen Yue nodded and shook her head:

"Only the Church has them, because Father is sent from the Holy City, not from Oasis Town itself."

"The number of Second Order Evolvers in other forces are all known. To obtain a Second Order Evolver, it takes decades or even hundreds of years of accumulation, or like Lord Han Tao, venturing deep into the wasteland, exploring ruins and restricted areas, risking your life to gamble."

"But the latter path is like a single-plank bridge for thousands of troops to cross. It takes many years to produce such a person. Behind Chief Administrator Han are countless skeletons of Evolvers and Wasteland Hunters."

"The Church has a total of five Second Order Evolvers, in addition to the three seats in the council, and Lord Su An, who manages Holy Spring Village, there is also a Father who guards the pilgrimage convoy, responsible for sending a new batch of missionaries to the headquarters, as well as the recent monthly situation report of Oasis."

After saying that, Shen Yue said with emotion:

The Holy Spring Church has five Second Order Evolvers, but one of them needs to be responsible for the safety of the pilgrimage convoy, so there are only four in daily life.

The Li family, who controls the Farm Village, occupies two seats in the council, making them the strongest local force besides the Church. With the help of Dawn Village and Motorbike Village, the local faction of Oasis Town also has four Second Order Evolvers.

The Wasteland Hunter Guild is a transparent person among them.

For one thing, their organization is loose, and most of the members are mobile Wasteland Hunters. The senior management of the organization doesn't have much ambition for power...

They basically stay out of the conflict.

Like Lin Feng, they don't want to get involved in the struggle between the local forces and the Holy Spring Church, which has been above Oasis for a long time, for control of the Oasis warship.

So looking at it this way, Chief Administrator Han Tao, as the only clean person between these two factions without affiliation, his stance can largely influence the final outcome of this open and secret struggle.

It is probably because of his existence that the struggle between the two sides has not come to the fore, maintaining the superficial peace and tranquility of Oasis Town.

But with my offering of the Rockhorn Horse taming technology, and the subsequent improvement of the breeding system, it is no less than undermining the foundation for the Li family in the Farm Village...

It will also break this superficial peace and instantly intensify the long-accumulated contradictions between the two sides.

Shen Yue ate the evolved meat, not disturbing Lin Feng's dazed thoughts.

She had seen this kind of situation many times. Everyone who understands the power situation in Oasis for the first time will silently analyze the situation in their hearts.

Especially male Evolvers, who are particularly interested in the power comparison between these forces.

After eating more than ten kilograms of evolved meat, Shen Yue rubbed her slightly bulging stomach, looked at the handsome man in front of her, and said:

"Chief Administrator Han now manages the cafeteria, which is a lucrative position. The third floor of the cafeteria is also a dining area specially set up for Second Order Evolvers. I heard there's even late-stage evolved meat."

"Although Han Tao's experience can be described as legendary, as long as you dare to fight and work hard, you may not be able to catch up with his back, or even surpass his achievements."

"Lord Su An thinks highly of you, saying that you are the most talented Wasteland Hunter he has ever seen."

"In the future, becoming an Oasis Upper Citizen, evolving to the late stage of the First Order, taking on an important position in Oasis, as long as you accumulate enough resources, you may not have another chance to go further!"

"Don't forget to take care of me then."

Lin Feng came back to his senses, looked at the girl who had eaten three meals' worth of food in one breath, and besides ketchup, chili sauce and other seasonings, it was almost all evolved meat...

So he asked with some confusion:

"Eating so much, and it's your second meal, aren't you full?"

Shen Yue wiped the sauce from the corner of her mouth and replied in a low voice:

"This is my ability, a special enhancement of the stomach's digestive system, which can quickly digest food and replenish energy, and can extract nutrients from various foods, of course, the richer the calories, the better."

“The energy absorbed from food is stored, allowing me to fight continuously, but the cost is that because digestion is too fast, I become extremely hungry again less than an hour after each meal.”

Lin Feng nodded, unable to resist teasing:

“This ability could be called the 'Persistent Glutton.' If you evolve to the second tier one day, wouldn't even an entire Oasis Town be enough to feed you…?”

Shen Yue hummed twice, patting her belly:

“It's not like I don't work. Since becoming an Evolver, I've won the only Diligence Award in the church's diligent employee selection for five consecutive years!”

“And if that day really comes, I'll go to Holy City. Anyway, they can definitely support me there.”

“No, when I evolve to the late stage of Tier 1, I'll apply to be transferred back to Holy City. The food supply here is too small, and it's not as good as the Cardinal院 in Holy City.”

Saying that, Shen Yue sighed softly:

“I really miss the days when I was in the Cardinal院, undergoing missionary training and assessment.”

Lin Feng smiled:

“Then your grades must have been at the bottom, right? Otherwise, how would you have been assigned to Oasis Town…?”

Shen Yue's face turned red at the exposure of her past.

If it weren't for that old witch, the vice-院长, harping on her stealing the Eucharist, how could she, with her excellent grades, have been assigned to this remote and desolate place in the final job evaluation?

Somewhat annoyed, Shen Yue snorted again, stood up with her plate, and prepared to leave:

“Are you finished eating? Let's go visit other places, it'll be dark soon.”

Hearing Shen Yue's words, Lin Feng frowned slightly, finished the last piece of evolved meat on his plate, got up and followed her, asking in confusion:

“Dark? Is there still night in the wasteland now?”

The newest novels are first published on 69书吧!

Because she was holding a plate, Shen Yue turned her head and pointed outside with her mouth.

Lin Feng followed her direction and saw that the sky outside the second-floor window was indeed darkening.

He then remembered the dome covering the oasis and suddenly realized:

“Those hexagonal glass panels also have a gradient effect?”

Shen Yue handed the plate to the middle-aged monk responsible for recycling at the entrance of the stairs:

“It's not that high-tech. It's just that the photovoltaic panels that were collected on both sides are re-laid. But there is indeed a fake starry sky at night, which allows the upper residents to have a regular daily routine and get a good night's sleep.”

Lin Feng nodded, unable to understand.

Just to get a good night's sleep, they have to carry out dismantling and installation day after day, which is time-consuming and laborious. Is it really necessary?

Lin Feng increasingly felt that the life of the upper residents in the oasis had been completely separated from the wasteland's lower-class wilderness residents.

Following Shen Yue out of the cafeteria, the sky outside became even darker, and the dome in the distance began to be gradually replaced by photovoltaic panels, starting from above the church.

The upper residents who had finished dinner were about to welcome the night of the Holy Spring Day.

And they also possessed the most luxurious thing in the wasteland with three days of sunshine…

A night that isolates them from the sun!

Watching the slowly spreading photovoltaic panels, under the hands of hundreds of upper servants, gradually spread out, covering the entire upper residential area, Lin Feng suddenly realized that the so-called upper residential area he was in at the moment was nothing more than a mobile utopia in the harsh wasteland…

A perfect and closed small community.

Built on top of tens of thousands of wilderness residents, tens of thousands of permanent residents of the five villages, and eight thousand Oasis warship servants.

Seeing Lin Feng looking at the dome with a shocked expression, Shen Yue, who was used to it, reminded him:

“There's still half an hour before dark, let's go, let's go to the Oasis's Moon Garden first, it will be closed completely when it gets dark.”

Lin Feng turned around and followed Shen Yue's pace.

At this time, night was approaching, and the upper residents who had finished dinner returned to their homes one after another, and the streets were slightly empty.

The two walked one after the other along the 150-meter-long main road to the rear of the Oasis warship.

Here is a lush city garden.

It is built above the residential area.

More than 20 meters wide and 40 meters long, it is a small garden of nearly 1,000 square meters.

And it has a nice name, Moon Garden.

Lin Feng followed Shen Yue and climbed more than ten meters of high steps to reach the high-rise platform where the Moon Garden was located.

Looking around, in addition to trees and grass, there are also colorful clusters of flowers, which are blooming in full bloom.

The beautiful scenery caught Lin Feng's eye, this was the first time he had seen so many bright colors since he woke up in the wasteland.

If the artificial night on the dome brought a sense of shock, then the vibrant, life-filled Moon Garden in front of him…

It gives people a feeling of heartfelt relaxation, joy, and comfort.

No wonder the bishop said that after visiting the oasis, Lin Feng might change his mind and choose to stay.

Such a good environment, with no worries about food, drink, and entertainment.

It's even more comfortable than the underground shelter back then.

If he were in it, he would probably sink into it after a few days, so why would he go down to the oasis and continue to live facing the loess and with his back to the sky on the wasteland?

Is that a life worth living?

Isn't it great to stay in the paradise of the upper residential area?

“Come and see this!”

Shen Yue's words came from behind the flowers and plants. Lin Feng came back to his senses, moved at the sound, and saw a ten-meter-wide fountain pool, gushing with transparent and clean spring water.

The sunlight shone on the water mist, refracting a half-circle of seven-color rainbow, looming under the “sunset”.

At this time, the sprinklers in the nearby greenery suddenly started on time, spraying out sheet-like water waves, and countless water mists diffused…

This made the rainbow in the fountain pool instantly enlarge, condensing a colorful picture in the half-air of the garden.

“This is the most beautiful scenery in Oasis Town. Many upper residents hold their marriage ceremonies here.”

Shen Yue looked at this scene somewhat blankly.

Lin Feng, who had climbed up from the bottom, had gradually faded away from the throbbing he felt when he first saw the beautiful scenery of the garden.

Now seeing the clean spring water scattered all over the sky, the water vapor filled…

He then sighed at how much water it would take to build this Moon Garden:

“Just the fresh water wasted on this garden is probably tens of tons, right?”

“Does the oasis have such abundant water reserves? It seems that only two hundred tons are distributed to the bottom wilderness residents…”
