Wasteland: My items are infinitely upgraded

As the two second-tier evolutionaries walked out of the shelter cave, they immediately caused a commotion among the wanderers gathered outside the cave.

Exclamations rose and fell, drawing everyone's attention.

The camp where Lin Feng's team was located naturally noticed this unusual scene and turned to look.

Following Zheng Yanying's gaze, they saw two evolutionaries with very different styles walking straight towards their team.

Mainly, the white-haired woman under the parasol was completely different from the other wanderers and wasteland hunters.

Lin Feng had noticed this leader of the Salvation Army at the entrance of the cave before.

At that time, due to the dim light inside the ruins, he could only barely see that she had white hair, and her attire was also very different from her teammates.

When she went deep into the shelter ruins, she was not wearing full armor, but a light armor and cool attire.

Now, under the bright sun, taking a closer look, the Salvation Army leader's attire is indeed unique.

Her upper body is only a white cropped tank top, paired with a leather jacket sewn with armor pieces and shoulder pads, and her lower body is a pair of faded ripped jeans.

She is about 1.7 meters tall, with a light and exceptionally slender figure.

But the most attractive thing is her stunningly beautiful face, with a pair of light blue eyes next to her delicate nose, captivating the soul.

Even Lin Feng, who has never been very interested in women, was slightly stunned.

The others naturally stared intently.

Until a light cough came from the side.

Zheng Yanying coughed twice, interrupting everyone's gaze, and then introduced the two Salvation Army leaders who came over:

"The white-haired woman is named Bai Ye, and she is the leader of this Salvation Army. She has a late second-tier evolutionary level, and her strength is powerful, making her a top existence among the second tier."

After Lin Feng finished speaking, everyone else reacted. With their overall strength, they could only deal with one or two early to mid-second-tier evolutionaries at most. Facing a late second-tier evolutionary, coupled with battle armor, they would have no power to fight back.

If the other party intends to attack directly, wouldn't it be just as Zheng Yanying said, everyone would be destroyed without a trace… …

Zheng Yanying nodded:

"That's right, we really can't handle it… …"

Then she comforted:

"But don't worry too much. The high evaluation of Bai Ye mostly comes from the awakened ability, space control, which has great development and evolutionary potential."

"And the space ability can only be regarded as an auxiliary ability at present. Like other rare energy-type abilities, because it cannot take effect remotely, the improvement of Bai Ye's own combat power is actually very limited… …"

"It is more about using space abilities to help her teammates improve their combat power."

As she spoke, seeing the leaders of the Salvation Army approaching, Zheng Yanying quickened her pace and added:

"This Salvation Army led by Bai Ye is more neutral among the wanderer forces. There are fewer wanted orders about them. Everyone doesn't need to be so nervous. At least they won't attack at the slightest disagreement."

The team members behind nodded, temporarily relieved, but the guns and weapons in their hands were not put down.

Lin Feng was thinking, the other party dared to expose a large area of ​​fair skin inside the ruins because they mastered the space ability, which can isolate external influences… …

Or, as the leader of Bai Ye, she inherited the evolutionary path of the third-tier king of the Salvation Army, so she has resistance to third-tier pollution.

If it is the latter, it is okay.

If it is the former, it means that although the other party's space ability does not improve the combat strength much, at least in terms of defense, it is at a full level.

As long as a layer of space shield is formed on the body surface, most of the attacks and damage can be isolated.

I don't know if the armor-piercing cannon with a damage of up to 150 points in my hand can penetrate the opponent's shield.

Lin Feng analyzed silently, his left hand already touching the armor-piercing cannon on his waist, and his whole body was hiding behind the car, only showing a quarter of his face to spy on the visitors.

Now, judging from the evolutionary level, the Salvation Army has the absolute initiative.

The team members had to prepare for the worst.

Be vigilant against the other party's attack at all times.

Fortunately, after the two walked in, the imagined confrontation did not last long.

Bai Ye under the parasol showed a smile.

She said to Zheng Yanying, who was facing her:

"You should also know about the things under the ruins."

"But what I want to explain is that the outbreak of the Aberrations and the appearance of the third-tier Aberration King have nothing to do with our Salvation Army."

As she spoke, the woman looked at Lin Feng standing behind the front of the car, staring at the special hunter's license pinned to his arm, which only showed half of his body:

"The gate to the -7th floor of Shelter -6 has been completely sealed off by the hunter team that went there last time."

"At first, we only thought that they didn't want other forces to get involved in the underground military factory, but we didn't expect that the last action of these bastards had awakened the third-tier Aberration at the bottom."

"At the same time, their exploration also killed two special hunters and a one-star hunter in the early second-tier… …"

"It's okay to die, but the key is that they turned into Corrupted Ones, and their equipment is still there. Ordinary light weapons, including flames, have extremely limited damage to the Corrupted Ones wearing battle armor."

"The hunter team that entered the bottom of the ruins at the beginning actually had a total of five special hunters and one one-star hunter, but after suffering heavy damage, they kept silent about it… …"

"As a result, we opened the closed gate and were directly attacked by the third-tier Aberration King and several Corrupted Ones, which not only caused heavy losses, but now even the upper three floors of the ruins have been occupied by a large number of Aberrations."

Zheng Yanying frowned slightly and said indifferently:

"This has nothing to do with us. In the final analysis, you wanted to obtain the machine tools in the underground military factory, so you released this group of Aberration monsters."

"So you came to us for something? If there's nothing else, we're going to other ruins to try our luck."

Bai Ye looked at everyone and nodded slightly:

"This time, I mainly came to thank this little brother named Lin Feng for his help just now."

"If it weren't for him, our losses would have been even more severe."

Seeing that the other party looked over and mentioned his name, Lin Feng stepped forward from behind the car and slowly said:

"I just wanted to save Lisa. She helped us a lot in the Wild Great Rift Valley before."

Seeing Lin Feng's whole face, Bai Ye's blue eyes under her silver eyelashes lit up slightly.

As the wasteland's recognized beauty, she was the center of attention in Salvation City, pursued by countless genius evolutionaries, including many young and handsome ones.

But compared to the man in front of her, there was still a slight difference.

Lin Feng himself was not bad-looking, and after achieving cross-level evolution, his entire temperament was strengthened again, and some blemishes and scars on his face were also restored to their original state.

Now, even among the evolutionaries who have no ugly people, he belongs to the top tier in terms of appearance alone.

And seeing Lin Feng, Bai Ye finally understood why Lisa would be devoted to him.

For Oasis Town, a small and medium-sized settlement with a total population of only 70,000 to 80,000, Lin Feng's appearance and strength are completely at the top level.

Even in the holy city with a population of millions, it is rare.

Naturally, it is easy to gain the favor of female evolutionaries.

Of course, for some male evolutionaries with special tastes and preferences, Lin Feng is also an excellent object of favor.

I don't know if he has sacrificed his appearance along the way in exchange for resources.

This thought flashed through her mind, and Bai Ye immediately replied:

"But in the end, it's still a life-saving grace. As the leader of the Salvation Army, I naturally need to show some appreciation."

Saying that, Bai Ye took out two light red crystal stones from the pocket of his leather jacket.

The pupils of Zheng Yanying and the others instantly constricted.

Seeing this scene, the corners of Bai Ye's mouth rose slightly:

"I heard from Lisa and the others that you are here to collect these Wasteland Wolf Originium Crystals?"

"These two Rank 1 Late-Stage Life Source Stones were collected by us along the way. Consider them a thank you gift for saving us. Take them."

With that, Bai Ye flicked his hands, and two Originium Crystals drew an arc in the air, flying towards Lin Feng in front of him.

Lin Feng reached out and steadily caught them. He twirled one in his fingers and saw that it was larger than the three Originium Crystals they had collected, with a diameter of about three centimeters.

And the life origin inside was still full and rich even after thousands of years.

"Thanks!"

Lin Feng put away the Originium Crystal and replied indifferently.

A Rank 1 Late-Stage Life Source Stone like this can fetch at least 5,000 points, especially since it can be used for an evolutionary path that can advance to Rank 3. Its evolutionary potential is much higher than that of the Rockhorn Horse's originium.

Lin Feng was naturally happy to accept such a super gift, which was equivalent to 10,000 points for free, enough to buy two more large-caliber guns.

Moreover, with these two Late-Stage Life Source Stones, the team's mission would be half completed. As long as they collected five more Rank 1 and one Rank 2 Originium Crystal, they could successfully end the mission without having to risk going deeper into the ruins.

After the Salvation Army leader, Bai Ye, presented such a generous "greeting gift"…

The relationship between the two teams instantly eased a lot.

In the face of利益, anything can be discussed. Even enemies from different standpoints and camps can become friends.

Although Zheng Yanying didn't say anything, she also put away the cold expression on her face, changing her previous tough attitude.

Seeing this, Bai Ye continued:

"Perhaps you need more Wasteland Wolf Originium Stones, but apart from the Feicheng Shelter, other small and medium-sized shelters have long been visited by generations of Wasteland Hunters. How can there be even wolf hair left?"

"If you want to continue collecting Life Source Stones, you have to return to this large shelter ruin and resolve the monster riot, and then kill the large group of Aberrants remaining on the upper three floors."

Lin Feng frowned slightly, slowly stepped forward, first signaling Zheng Yanying to hand over the negotiations to him, and then said:

"So? Do you have a way to solve this? To deal with that Rank 3 Aberrant, and the other Guild Hunters who have become Corrupted?"

Bai Ye nodded, maintaining a smile:

"We were just caught off guard before, plus the riot of Aberrant monster tide dispersed the strength of our team, so we had to retreat first."

"Now I've come up with an excellent solution that can quickly resolve the Aberrants left on the upper three floors, but in the end, we need some help to deal with the Rank 3 Aberrant and the other Hunter Corrupted."

"By the way, that One-Star Hunter Corrupted is still wearing a set of exoskeleton power armor, only the helmet and mask are damaged, and all other parts are intact."

"If we kill him, we can recover that armor, worth more than 20,000 points!"

As soon as these words came out, Lin Feng raised his eyebrows.

In fact, he didn't care too much about collecting Originium Crystals, mainly because these things had to be handed over to the church and couldn't be directly transformed or enhance his strength.

Because it has already formed a crystalline body, the purification and extraction filter is useless. Only the church has specialized technology that can use it to cultivate and induce the evolution cells of the Wasteland Wolf, and then perform corresponding surgical injections.

But right now, a set of power armor is a real treasure, and it is also a Tier 2 orange equipment, with a minimum universal level of twenty.

Once he gets it, even if it is slightly damaged, as long as it is not completely scrapped, Lin Feng can restore it to its original state.

Wearing a set of power armor, his combat power will be greatly improved. Coupled with the rapid-fire cannon and armor-piercing cannon, he can at least compete with Tier 2 mid-to-late stage evolvers.

Seeing that Lin Feng was interested, Bai Ye struck while the iron was hot:

"We Salvation Army don't need the equipment dropped by the Rank 3 Aberrant and Corrupted after they are defeated. It's too troublesome to maintain. You can rest assured about this."

"Including the Wasteland Wolf corpses encountered along the way, all the Originium Crystals inside can also belong to you."

"We only want the machine tools and production lines in the military factory."

Lin Feng looked at Zheng Yanying beside him. Seeing that she didn't object, he replied:

"What do you need us to do? At most, we can contain two Rank 1 Late-Stage Corrupted, or fully suppress that dead Tier 2 Early-Stage One-Star Hunter."

"We don't have the ability to deal with a Rank 3 Aberrant."

Bai Ye smiled and waved his hand:

"We will arrange all of this. You don't need to take risks. More precisely, we need your powerful firepower to assist."

"Especially Mr. Lin himself. If you can suppress the monster tide and the powerful Aberrant's attack like you did before, creating opportunities for us to attack, that would be great."

Lin Feng narrowed his eyes.

This is the real purpose of the Salvation Army seeking cooperation.

They value his powerful firepower.

Only such firepower coverage can suppress the most troublesome Aberrant monster tide. Otherwise, even many Tier 2 evolvers cannot withstand the surging tide of thousands of Aberrants.

But Lin Feng is more aware of the value of these shells.

Without the blessing of the upgrade system, obtaining the same firepower would cost an astronomical figure.

Take a small shell, one hundred points, three thousand rapid-fire grenade shells, which is three hundred thousand points.

The high-explosive armor-piercing shells fired by the armor-piercing cannon are comparable to 105mm howitzers, and the price is naturally more expensive!

From the strict control of the Holy Spring Church and the Guild,

The value of heavy weapons with great power is probably not lower than that of life originium.

From ancient times to the present, war has been burning money.

This is why evolvers who awaken gun-type abilities and energy control-type abilities have such high status and potential.

The former can directly enhance the power of guns and artillery, while the latter can also laterally empower bullets and shells to improve the strike effect.

But in general, they are all insignificant in the face of Lin Feng's almost unlimited firepower.

The three thousand rounds of ammunition for the rapid-fire cannon alone can instantly sweep away a small and medium-sized wanderer force of thousands of people.

In addition, another branded weapon, the armor-piercing cannon, with three hundred rounds of ammunition, is comparable to the firepower of a simplified artillery battalion.

According to the configuration of fifteen artillery pieces, each with twenty rounds of ammunition, Lin Feng alone, plus the rapid-fire cannon and armor-piercing cannon, can completely be comparable to a strengthened artillery battalion.

But he naturally cannot expose his true strength.

Especially near the ruins where there are many people.

According to the general strength of gun-type ability users, Lin Feng pondered for a moment and replied:

"Concentrating firepower like before will consume a lot of my ability, and it will take most of the day to recover."

"Currently, I can probably fire twenty enhanced shells in one go. Each one can shatter a Rank 1 Late-Stage Aberrant, or seriously injure a Tier 2."

Saying that, Lin Feng raised the rapid-fire cannon on his right hand:

"As for this enhanced version of the large-caliber AK, it can be comparable to the power of a heavy machine gun. Currently, there are only three or four hundred rounds of ammunition left."

"My firepower can barely resist the monster tide formed by thousands of Aberrants. If there are more, I can only retreat while fighting like you."

Bai Ye nodded slightly.

Judging from the firepower the man before him had described, it was already more powerful than most Tier 1 late-stage gun-type ability users. Moreover, the other party was definitely holding back, at most revealing seventy percent of his strength, keeping thirty percent as a trump card.

And twenty shells with the power comparable to tank cannons were enough to suppress that Tier 3 mutated creature, as well as the remaining corrupted ones.

Creating favorable offensive conditions for the Salvation Army.

"No problem, such powerful individual firepower is enough to cover our assassination operation."

Bai Ye smiled with satisfaction. The purpose of coming here to discuss cooperation was only Lin Feng from beginning to end.

However, the man behind the car opposite them put away the modified AK in his hand and replied instead:

"But this is a collaboration between you and me, not the team. What I need is not the Wasteland Wolf Origin Crystal, nor that power armor that will only be damaged beyond repair…"

Bai Ye put away her smile and stared at the man before her.

Lin Feng lowered his voice, pulled out two long guns comparable to rocket launchers, and while displaying them, slowly said:

"Your team attacked the Li family's pilgrimage convoy and seized the origin substance of a Chieftain-level Rockhorn Horse, which might be used in exchange for the full assistance of a gun-type ability user."

"And if you give it to me in advance, maybe I, who has advanced to a Tier 2 evolver, can possess the strength to severely injure a Tier 3 mutated king!"

"At that time, not to mention this Tier 3 mutated creature, even other Tier 3 sources of pollution in the lower levels, I can also help you deal with them."

"Going to Sub-Level Six and below to move out so many machine tools and production lines is not something that can be solved in one trip. At that time, you will need even more powerful firepower support…"

"Chief Bai, wouldn't you agree?"

Bai Ye looked at the man before her, her eyes slightly narrowed.

The fact that the other party knew about the Salvation Army team attacking the pilgrimage convoy of the Li family did not surprise her. Even the suggestion to use the Tier 2 Rockhorn Horse life essence for trade…

Was also within her expectations.

But what Bai Ye didn't expect was that the other party would have such ambition and courage to propose a transaction of paying first and acting later.

Moreover, what he said made so much sense that she couldn't find a reason to refute him.

After all, before successfully transporting out the military supplies needed by the Salvation Army, the team really needed to rely on the powerful firepower he possessed.

It was just that doing so would involve investing too much at once, and whether they could obtain the desired effect and return remained to be observed and discussed.

Although Bai Ye was the leader of this Salvation Army, she couldn't act independently on some major matters, and at least needed to gain the support of the majority.

Especially the last time they robbed the pilgrimage convoy in Oasis Town,

Although they ultimately won a great victory, the casualties were not small. The Li family lost a Tier 1 late-stage evolver, and a Salvation Army team member was also seriously injured.

After thinking for a moment, Bai Ye quickly made a decision:

"You're right, it's far from enough to just drive them away or seriously injure them, but trading Tier 2 life essence is a major matter. Perhaps we can first verify the goods…"

"To see if Mr. Lin's strength is worthy of our advance investment?"

Seeing his goal achieved, Lin Feng revealed a confident smile:

"No problem, after I rest for eight hours, let's begin the operation. At that time, my team members and I will do our best to cooperate with you to complete the task."

Bai Ye nodded:

"Then I will wait for Mr. Lin to recover his state and come to prove his true strength to everyone."

After speaking, she turned and left.

The tall, dark-skinned woman holding the umbrella beside her kept staring at Lin Feng's team's Rockhorn Horse chariot, examining it carefully.

As a mechanical engineer, Marie was obviously more interested in this uniquely shaped Rockhorn Horse chariot than in guns and men.

After turning around to hold the umbrella for the leader, she didn't forget to look back and take one last glance at the mighty and domineering Rockhorn Horse chariot.

After they left, the Four-Car Camp fell into silence.

Until a fragrant aroma wafted over, Lin Feng smacked his lips and said:

"Let's eat first, we can talk about everything else at the dinner table."

Liu Mingfei carried out a long dining table, which was converted from the original bed board, from the rear compartment of the chariot, placed it under the tent, and then found a few folding chairs.

On the other side, a large pot of stewed kudzu and horse meat, freshly cooked, was brought to the table.

Ding Yi also stir-fried two side dishes, as well as a pot of cold-mixed braised horse meat, as side dishes.

This meat was all Tier 1 early-stage evolved meat, a full twenty pounds, enough for everyone to enjoy.

Except for Lin Feng, the rest of the team members had good replenishing effects from eating it.

Lin Feng was a Tier 1 late-stage evolver, and eating early-stage horse meat was like eating a low-fat, low-energy diet, only able to provide a feeling of fullness without absorbing enough energy.

So, at the dining table where everyone gathered, Lin Feng only tasted Ding Yi's cooking, ate some curry-flavored kudzu, and began to think about the issue of cooperating with the Salvation Army.

Zheng Yanying and Zhou Hong, who were invited to come, the latter was a little better. He was responsible for driving and recording the entire operation, equivalent to the team's supervisor.

And Zheng Yanying, who was responsible for the specific action decisions, obviously had some opinions on this cooperation with the Salvation Army.

"We have no way to guarantee that they will fulfill their promises."

Zheng Yanying took a piece of horse meat and continued:

"If the final action fails, wouldn't it be a waste of several days in vain."

"We don't have much time left…"

Lin Feng nodded and did not refute, but only replied:

"But we have no other choice now. Do you want to go to Meteor Wolf Valley and challenge the Chieftain-level Wasteland Wolf? Compared to the cunning and cruel Wasteland Wolf, I would rather face the stupid mutated creatures in the ruins."

"Besides, according to the plan, I will become a Tier 2 evolver first, and at that time I will have enough strength to ensure that the Salvation Army fulfills the transaction as agreed."

Zheng Yanying took a deep breath:

"But the condition is that you have to help them complete the exploration and collection of the military factory. Even if you kill the Tier 3 mutated creature, they won't let you go."

Lin Feng shrugged, indifferently:

"No problem, you can take the Source Stone Crystals back to Oasis Town first, can't you? Anyway, the task this time is just to bring back the Wasteland Wolf's Life Source Stone."

"What's the problem with my team staying two more days?"

Zheng Yanying frowned tightly. Although the task was like this, she knew that the Church also needed Lin Feng's gun-type ability to provide firepower support to deal with the Li family's offensive.

But Lin Feng had never agreed to join the Church's frontal decisive battle with the Li family…

The other party obviously had other more thoughts.

After thinking about it, Zheng Yanying could only persuade:

"We don't need to have deeper cooperation with the Salvation Army. With too much contact, the Church has already agreed that after this mission is over, it will give Captain Lin a Tier 2 life essence to complete the evolution…"

"Moreover, Captain Lin has only just stepped into the late stage of Tier 1, and needs the evolution of level eighteen and nineteen before he can have the qualifications to advance to Tier 2. Why be in such a hurry?"

Lin Feng sneered in his heart. How could he not know the Church's routine.

Rather than facing the Li family with a desperate gamble, and being a workhorse for the Church to eat the pie of Tier 2 evolution…

It would be better to obtain it directly from the Salvation Army right now, which would be more realistic.

Thinking of this, Lin Feng expressed that he would carefully consider it later, and then picked up the iron pot, took the remaining half of the stewed sweet potato and horse meat, and walked towards the distant shelter cave.

After confirming that he was needed by the Salvation Army, he wanted to further understand the other party's strength,

As well as the way to quickly eliminate the mutated creatures next.
