Wasteland: My items are infinitely upgraded

Father Su An nodded, this was the root cause of everything:

“Su Yueyue is not my biological daughter. I advanced to a Second-Order Evolver decades ago, but in order to complete the task of being promoted from Deacon to Father, I began to travel around the wasteland.”

“To search for traces of the Lord of the Holy Spring, or to thwart the conspiracy of the Church of the Blazing Sun, and kill their members.”

“And in a certain wanderer force, I accidentally discovered a group of believers of the Church of the Blazing Sun, who were excavating a small refuge site they had found.”

“They found many hibernation pods inside, taking the survivors out of them as sacrifices to the Blazing Sun not far away.”

“They were a group of extremely weak cultists. In order to lure out the big fish, I didn't act directly, but waited until they completed their first ritual…”

“As these people put the survivors into tin cages, hung them high, and then used focusing mirrors to collect the cursed light waves released by the Blazing Sun behind them, focusing them on the tin cages, the dozen or so survivors who had just woken up were ignited by the Blazing Sun and burned to ashes on the spot.”

“Then these lunatics collected the remaining ashes from the tin cages, stirred them into a juice with water, and then drank it.”

“They couldn't improve their own strength, so they used the ashes to suppress the burning curse in their bodies…”

“Through this, I also discovered the root cause of why the Church of the Blazing Sun was able to gradually rise and has been unable to be eliminated.”

“Using humans' fear of death, only by constantly sacrificing others can they prolong their own lives, and also put a reasonable coat on their evil deeds…”

“The truly extreme lunatics are always a minority. The lower and middle levels of the Church of the Blazing Sun are mostly these cursed people who have done many evils.”

“However, the ashes they collect, stored in jars, are mostly offered to higher-level existences.”

“After that, relying on my own strength, and using the Church's exclusive weapons, I successfully killed the people who came to make contact, several Late First-Order Evolvers, and destroyed this small Blazing Sun cultist group.”

“Finally, I was promoted to Probationary Father with this achievement.”

Speaking of this, a light flowed in Su An's eyes, obviously this memory was very profound for him:

“And Su Yueyue was one of the survivors I rescued during that wandering mission…”

“Her body was contaminated with a little bit of the Blazing Sun curse, which may not affect Evolvers, but she was just a child who hadn't been awake for long, even a small dose would kill her!”

“According to the rules set by the Church, all survivors contaminated with the Blazing Sun curse must be executed in advance to avoid becoming potential Blazing Sun cultists.”

“But Su Yueyue's appearance reminded me of my daughter who had died for many years. Finally, before the Church's pastorate came to take over, I still had a moment of compassion…”

“She was only six years old at the time, it wasn't her fault.”

“Later, in order to conceal her existence and prevent her from being discovered by the bishops of the Holy City, I, who was originally expected to go to the Holy Land for further study and meet the Saint, took the initiative to apply to be transferred to the poorest Oasis Town…”

“Because only here, no one can interfere with Su Yueyue's growth, and I also have sufficient freedom to study how to solve her illness and eradicate the influence of the Blazing Sun curse.”

Speaking of this, Father Su An let out a long sigh.

Obviously, he recognized Lin Feng's character before he could reveal these secrets.

Perhaps for Father Su An himself, being able to tell someone these things after suppressing them for so many years is a kind of relief in a sense.

Lin Feng took a deep breath, and couldn't help but admire Father Su An's character, but the final result may not be satisfactory:

“So you implanted the Wolf King's gene into Su Yueyue, wanting to use the power of the Third-Order King's bloodline to suppress the Blazing Sun curse in her body?”

“Didn't you use the Holy Spring water before? Logically speaking, the blessing of the Lord of the Holy Spring should be more useful than the Third-Order Wolf King's gene!”

Father Su An sighed softly:

“I used it a long time ago.”

“In the first year of coming to Oasis Town, Yueyue was almost soaked in the Holy Water.”

“At first, the effect was indeed very good. The Lord of the Holy Spring, as a great existence beyond the Third-Order, even a little bit of power that leaked out of His body could perfectly suppress the Blazing Sun curse…”

“But as I introduced before, this curse is not just a simple electromagnetic wave energy. It's like an immortal cancer cell. Once it adapts to the environment, withstands the suppression and cleansing of the Holy Spring's power, it will relapse again when you are not paying attention, and it will be more violent each time.”

“Like a maggot in the bone, torturing Su Yueyue to the point of wishing she were dead, crying and begging me to end her pain.”

“Once the Blazing Sun curse occurs, it's like being burned by flames in the body, making people feel suffocatingly extreme pain.”

“In the end, she can only be continuously soaked in higher concentrations of Holy Water to alleviate the torment of the curse in her body.”

“But she can't live in the Holy Spring water forever. Her physique is weak and her strengthening level is not high, so the price of using the Holy Spring over the years is that her development has almost stagnated.”

“I have been in Oasis Town for more than ten years, and Yueyue, who was originally six years old, should have grown up long ago, but now she still looks like a ten-year-old…”

“This is an unsolvable loop. Fortunately, the bloodline gene of the Third-Order Wolf King should have suppressed the curse in Yueyue's body?”

Father Su An shook his head helplessly:

“It won't last long, two or three years at most.”

“If you pay attention to the aura emitted by Yueyue, you will find that her aura is sometimes very unstable.”

“Sometimes it's in the mid-strengthening stage, and sometimes it drops to the early stage. This period is the onset period of the Blazing Sun curse, which will consume Yueyue's strengthening level…”

“And the whole process is extremely painful, but Yueyue is already used to it, as long as it's not a systemic burning pain, she can endure it.”

“But years of pain have also made her taciturn, and she has nothing to talk about with her peers.”

Speaking, Father Su An mentioned what happened yesterday afternoon:

“I didn't expect you to catch a live wolf cub.”

“Yueyue had a lot of fun playing with it, and her physical condition has improved a lot.”

Lin Feng recalled that he once discovered that Su Yueyue's aura was erratic, which was indeed as Su An said.

Thinking that she was just a teenager, but had already endured such a tragic fate, Lin Feng then said:

“Then leave the dog behind and give it to Yueyue as a companion.”

Father Su An shook his head:

“No need, if that wasteland wolf cub is well trained, it will be of great help to this relic search mission. In the underground ruins, it can rely on its bloodline gene to respond to the Wolf King's call and accurately find the nearby wasteland wolf origin.”

“It's not too late to come back and play after the mission is over.”

Lin Feng nodded, obviously not expecting that the unremarkable dog would have such a function.

After saying everything, Father Su An felt a lot more comfortable, and placed high hopes on Lin Feng:

“This mission is not only related to the Church, but whether we can fully control the oasis is also crucial to continuing Su Yueyue's life…”

“So… I beg you!”

Lin Feng slowly got up and nodded solemnly.

Leaving the village chief's office, he returned to the chariot camp where only Ding Yi was.
