Wasteland: My items are infinitely upgraded
#145 - Deterrence, hunting wolves? Level 25 rapid-fire armor-piercing cannon
Considering that the synthesized super weapon needed to be tested for its power, Lin Feng planned to take one or two people with him for an outdoor experiment.
So, he naturally brought Chen Shanshan, Ding Yi, and Liu Qian along, as these three were more energetic, and the former was more curious.
After instructing Liu Mingfei and A'Lian, Lin Feng and the three of them rode off on the tricycle, lightly equipped and ready to depart.
With Zheng Yanying holding down the fort at the camp, there was no need to worry about attacks. More importantly, Lin Feng had already advanced to become a second-tier evolver. Things were different now. His second-tier status was enough to deter any villains.
Before leaving the Feicheng Shelter ruins, Lin Feng also made a point of riding the tricycle to the entrance of the ruins.
Along the way, as he passed the camps of those wanderer forces, he directly released his own aura.
The overwhelming sense of pressure instantly swept through the nearby wanderers, including some mid-first-tier evolved beings, who genuinely felt Lin Feng's terrifying strength…
So, they all lowered their heads and turned away, not even daring to spy in secret, let alone make direct eye contact with Lin Feng.
After deterring these villains, Lin Feng's real purpose was to meet with the Salvation Army.
When he stepped into the cave again, he could already keenly sense the presence of the second-tier evolved individuals within: the leader, Bai Ye, and the second-in-command, Ma Li.
Ma Li's evolution level was only early-second-tier, but in terms of the thickness of her aura, she was stronger than him, estimated to be a level 21 or 22 evolved being.
But Lin Feng was confident that he could steadily overwhelm the other party with his "Gun Ability".
Bai Ye, who was making insulated cup bombs in the RV, and Ma Li, who was reinforcing and modifying the heavy truck, also felt something the moment Lin Feng entered the cave.
So, the two of them put down their work and walked out of the camp to meet the second-tier evolver, Lin Feng.
Bai Ye stopped outside the war chariot, looked at Lin Feng walking over, and revealed a slight smile:
"Faster than I imagined…"
"Congratulations, Mr. Lin, on successfully completing cross-tier evolution and becoming a second-tier Gun Ability evolver!"
As he spoke, Bai Ye's gaze shifted from Lin Feng's handsome face to the two heavy firearms he wore around his waist, veritable handheld cannons of heavy firepower.
Compared to when Lin Feng was in the late-first-tier, their size and caliber had both increased to some extent.
The damage and firepower must also have been greatly improved!
Lin Feng didn't hide anything. Now was the time to show his strength, so he immediately picked up the level 20 high-explosive rapid-firing cannon around his waist, his tone slightly proud:
"It's okay, mainly the changes in the ability are very big."
"The lethality has now increased by at least half. I need to go out and verify the specific damage and firepower, so the mission on the negative fourth floor needs to be postponed a bit."
"Currently, if I encounter a third-tier mutated king again, I can easily kill it alone."
In addition to demonstrating his strength, Lin Feng also wanted to test the other party's attitude. Postponing the next action time was a way to gain the right to speak.
It meant that future mission arrangements would no longer be entirely directed by Bai Ye but would require asking for and respecting Lin Feng's opinion; otherwise, putting in minimal effort was what civil engineers were best at.
Bai Ye nodded and then asked about the previous outing:
"To test the power of the firearms, why not just try it in the ruins? There are still many second-tier mutated creatures on the negative third floor, and the negative fourth floor also needs to be deterred and driven away."
Lin Feng shrugged, shook the rapid-firing cannon in his hand, which had a muzzle thicker than a cup, and said somewhat helplessly:
"The main reason is that the power has increased too much. It's even more powerful than when I killed the third-tier mutated king before. I'm worried it will collapse the floors of the shelter."
"Although it was built to the highest standard at the time, it's been several thousand years, after all. If it weren't preserved in the underground environment, it would probably have collapsed long ago."
"So, to be on the safe side, I'll try it in the wild first. When you hear the sound of gunfire, don't be too surprised."
Although he felt that Lin Feng's words were a bit boastful and annoying, Bai Ye still smiled and agreed:
"No problem. Anyway, that third-tier mutated creature has already been eliminated on the negative third floor, greatly shortening the expected progress. The action will start on the fourth day of the countdown, giving you a whole night to experiment before you can rest for a while."
"If you want to rest a little longer then, postponing it to 2:00 AM is also fine."
The original plan for cleaning up the negative third floor was to work from 3:00 PM to 12:00 AM, a full nine hours, but after going down for only an hour, Lin Feng cooperated with Bai Ye to directly solve the major problem of the third-tier mutated creature.
After that, the remaining mutated monster tides also scattered like birds and beasts.
The negative third floor was safely secured with little effort, and the group retreated from the ruins at 4:00 PM and returned to the surface.
After some conversation, Lin Feng began his evolution at 5:00 PM, taking a total of three hours to complete the cross-tier evolution.
Because of the immaculate evolution of absorbing pure source matter, the physical burden it brought was not great.
This was also why Bai Ye was slightly surprised.
It was only 8:00 PM now, four hours away from 12:00 AM. Postponing it to 2:00 AM would be six hours, enough for Lin Feng and the others to go out and return, and then rest for a while.
Lin Feng nodded and then prepared to leave.
Bai Ye didn't forget to remind him:
"Don't go towards the foot of Mount Tai in the southeast. There are still a large number of wasteland wolves in Meteor Wolf Valley. If you provoke the second-tier chieftain-level wasteland wolf, it's easy to attract the pack's revenge."
Lin Feng thought of the divine dog still in the transport vehicle, as well as Su Yueyue by his side, the latter having absorbed the genes of the wasteland wolf and also counting as half a wasteland wolf evolution path…
The two of them had inextricable links with the wasteland wolf pack of Meteor Wolf Valley.
Perhaps after this mission, he could imitate what he did in the Wild Grand Canyon, and finally do a big one, collecting enough fresh wasteland wolf evolved meat, extracting the corresponding life source matter, to help the divine dog achieve cross-tier evolution, while delaying the outbreak of Su Yueyue's curse, allowing her to grow up healthily.
Before, with only late-first-tier strength, Lin Feng naturally wouldn't dare to think about this idea.
After all, any chieftain-level wasteland wolf could lead the pack to overwhelm the entire team.
But now, after being promoted to a second-tier evolver, Lin Feng's strength had undergone a qualitative improvement, especially the derived changes of the Brand Power, the assembled super weapon…
Made Lin Feng feel that he could have the strength to challenge mid-second-tier, even late-second-tier mutated wild beasts.
Now, hearing Bai Ye's kind reminder, he naturally had some opposite extra thoughts.
After all, the divine dog was also a member of the team, and its evolution level and strength also needed to keep up with the team's standards.
Under the ripening of a large amount of enhanced meat, it was now about to grow to its youth, entering the middle stage of enhancement.
By the next Holy Spring Day, he would have to consider its cross-tier evolution.
And once past Meteor Wolf Valley of the Mount Tai ruins, finding the traces of the wasteland wolf on the vast wasteland would be much more difficult than migrating rockhorn horses.
The tricycle drove on the road, ridden by Chen Shanshan.
In the back carriage, one man and two women.
Ding Yi looked at Lin Feng, who seemed to be lost in thought, and guessed his plan, then opened her mouth and said:
"Wasteland wolves are different from rockhorn horses. Although both are gregarious animals, the former are fierce wasteland predators. As long as you don't go too far, killing one or two early-first-tier rockhorn horses won't attract the attention of the chieftain level."
"If you want to make a move, it's best to find a small to medium-sized wolf pack without the protection of a chieftain-level wasteland wolf, and follow them all the way after they leave Meteor Wolf Valley, waiting for an opportunity to strike."
Lin Feng frowned slightly:
"Large wild beast groups generally have chieftain-level companions to protect them, right? Like the ones we encountered in the Wild Rift Valley."
"Just now in Meteor Wolf Valley, there shouldn't be any small wasteland wolf packs nearby, right?"
Ding Yi shook her head and explained:
"Rockhorn horses are herbivorous migratory animals. They themselves are very weak in combat and need to survive by sticking together. Moreover, even if the number gathers too much, with the help of the photovoltaic rock armor, it won't affect their respective food and energy acquisition."
"But wasteland wolves are different. They have to eat meat to survive on the wasteland, and the barren wasteland can't always stably provide a large amount of food to meet the consumption of large wolf packs."
"Just like the wasteland wolf pack we encountered outside Oasis Town before, the number was only about twenty or so. Even wolf packs with first-tier evolved leaders still don't have too many members."
"The limited source of food restricts the size of the wolf pack, coupled with the competitiveness between themselves, and the mutual predation under food scarcity…"
After analyzing, Ding Yi pushed her glasses:
"All of the above factors determine that wasteland wolf packs will definitely part ways after leaving Meteor Wolf Valley and sneak into the wasteland to find prey on their own."
"At that time, we only need to drive this war chariot, and we don't need too many people. The remaining slower transport vehicles and dormitory vehicles can stay in place or return to Oasis Town."
Lin Feng nodded. With Ding Yi by his side, he could save a lot of wasted effort and also avoid stepping into pitfalls.
Liu Qian's expression was solemn.
The hunter's notes she once bought could no longer provide reference suggestions for the problems facing the current team, and she gradually realized that Lin Feng, who had been promoted to the second tier, was gradually drifting away from the other members of the team.
If Lin Feng wanted to adopt a family-style development model, then the other people could still help, such as serving as stewards in the farm village.
As for the wanderers, they were not within the scope of consideration.
The worst case was to continue to take the elite route in the form of a team, pursuing constant evolution and becoming stronger, instead of stopping to rest and stabilize development.
Then, everyone except Chen Shanshan had the possibility of being eliminated and abandoned.
And based on Lin Feng's rejection of the conditions offered by the church, not wanting to accept the rockhorn horse industry in the farm village, his wishes were definitely inclined to the elite route.
The sense of crisis that Liu Qian had just dispelled not long ago now surged into her heart again.
The second-tier team with Lin Feng as its core in the future would no longer need members who drive cars and manage logistics, but beings who all had a skill.
Her elder brother, Liu Mingfei, although he had the strength of a first-tier early-stage evolution, he himself had no fighting spirit. Now, even A'Lian and A'Ming, who joined later, were not as good…
Therefore, in this operation, the role of their Liu family siblings was becoming less and less important, and their status in the team and in Lin Feng's heart was naturally plummeting.
Liu Mingfei didn't care much. After becoming an evolver, he had no more goals to strive for. He just wanted to get a small official position in Oasis Town and live out the rest of his life comfortably.
Liu Qian had no way to change his mind. She couldn't force her own brother to face life-and-death crises. Given his personality, he would likely be the first to sacrifice himself.
Lin Feng had realized this, so he arranged for him to stay on the surface and guard the vehicle.
After all, it was unlikely for an ordinary person from the Old Earth era, especially an older man, to transform into a calm and decisive warrior in just a few months.
As for A'Lian and A'Ming, although they had some wasteland living and combat experience, their own evolutionary potential was limited, and their abilities were not strong enough.
Even with the awakened physique enhancement abilities, those male berserker evolvers were much stronger than them.
If the team needed core members to withstand damage, men were definitely more valuable to cultivate than women.
Therefore, Liu Qian, who was well aware of the changing relationships, had already vaguely sensed the future direction of the team.
The solemn expression on her face at this moment stemmed from her entanglement with her own destiny.
Of course, she wanted to continue staying in the team, following Lin Feng and the team members to see the new world and the distant large mobile cities.
Of course, the most fundamental reason was her own strength.
The newest novels are first published on 69shuba.!
The energy control ability that Liu Qian awakened had extremely high development potential, but it was too weak in the early stages…
At least she needed to evolve to the second level to see some improvement and have some effect.
Liu Qian learned from Chen Shanshan that the leader of the Salvation Army, an evolver with spatial control abilities, could fight tier-3 mutated creatures alone, and could also float in mid-air, releasing explosions more powerful than the cannons in Lin Feng's hands with a wave of his hand.
Although spatial abilities only had auxiliary effects in the early stages, as the level increased and the abilities developed, their power gradually became apparent.
This made Liu Qian very envious.
When she saw Bai Ye, the leader of the Salvation Army, in the shelter cave, Liu Qian was even more captivated by her stunning beauty and proud aura, her eyes full of longing and envy.
Bai Ye was the goal she was pursuing.
It's just that reason is very full…
Reality is very bony.
Extremely high potential means that it is only useful in the very late stages, but few physique-based energy-type ability users grow to the very late stages.
One reason is that the probability of awakening is very low, and the other is that a lot of resources need to be invested, especially for energy-type abilities, which also require one to explore and develop ways to use them, which consumes even more resources.
And now the wasteland is precisely the environment with the most barren and scarce resources.
The same resources can be used to cultivate multiple berserkers with physique enhancement abilities, and these warriors can also be directly put into battle and play a role.
So, as far as Liu Qian is concerned, if she wants to continue evolving and improving her strength, relying solely on empowering bullets will be difficult to improve in this lifetime.
Making empowered bullets consumes abilities, and these abilities require eating a lot of evolutionary meat to quickly replenish the state.
Only by staying in Lin Feng's team can Liu Qian conveniently and freely obtain the extremely precious evolutionary meat.
Otherwise, once she leaves the team, trying to earn resources by empowering bullets may not even be as profitable as the input cost.
The more Liu Qian analyzed, the more she felt that she could only stay by Lin Feng's side, stay in the team, to benefit and evolve to a higher level.
However, to stay, a skill of empowering bullets is far from enough.
Because Lin Feng himself does not need additional empowerment. His optimization ability can continuously increase the power of shells, which is faster and more convenient than small empowerment.
In the advancing tricycle, Liu Qian clenched the high-quality AK rifle she was carrying and secretly made a decision.
The tricycle traveled more than ten kilometers westward on the vast wasteland.
And this place was far enough away from the Feicheng Shelter to avoid affecting the underground ruins or disturbing the Meteor Wolf Valley, which was thirty to forty kilometers away.
Lin Feng then called to stop the advance.
Any further would be troublesome on the way back.
After getting out of the car, everyone looked around, searching for a symbolic target that could be used as a mark.
Soon, Lin Feng saw the ruins of a county town located at the western end of the Mount Tai Mountains, with many small hills about a hundred meters high rising nearby.
Lin Feng took everyone to walk for a while, stopping one kilometer away from the small hill. This distance was just right, allowing them to clearly observe the destructive effect of the super weapon.
After selecting one of the small hills, Lin Feng then picked up two cannons.
Armor-piercing cannon in his right hand, high-explosive rapid-firing cannon in his left hand, activating the branded power for assembly and synthesis:
"Do you want to consume ten points of health to temporarily assemble and synthesize the lv20 armor-piercing cannon and the high-explosive rapid-firing cannon?"
"Note: The temporary assembly and synthesis lasts only ten minutes, and the current potential growth limit is level 25."
Lin Feng did not hesitate and directly activated the organizational synthesis.
Now that he had two hundred points of health, the mere ten points of health were completely irrelevant and had little impact on his own state.
As ten points of health were drawn from his body and poured into the guns in his left and right hands, the two guns seemed to decompose and reconstruct, undergoing a transformation like a Transformer, reorganizing into a three-meter-long cannon.
The barrel was two meters long and more than twenty centimeters thick on the outside, and the inner diameter of the barrel reached more than a fist.
Lin Feng estimated that it must be thirteen or fourteen centimeters.
Equivalent to a 122mm howitzer, and as the synthesized super weapon was born, its attribute data also appeared in Lin Feng's peripheral vision, almost as powerful as a 122mm howitzer:
"Rapid-fire Armor-piercing Cannon lv25, Orange Quality, Branded"
"Basic Attributes: Damage 500, Effective Range 5 kilometers, Kill Coverage 25 meters, Remaining Tungsten Core Armor-piercing Shells 1000; Temporary Synthesis, Duration Ten Minutes"
"Additional Attributes: Ammo Recovery 1/1h; Space Magazine 1000 rounds; Area Damage (Coverage Radius 25 meters, Center 5 meters Damage 500); Extreme Pursuit (Switches to Automatic Mode, Ten Rounds Per Second), Armor-piercing Shells (Armor-piercing Ability Increased by 100%, Damage +50)"
"Note: The temporary assembly and synthesis effect will be lifted after ten minutes, and the lv25 rapid-fire armor-piercing cannon will degenerate back to the lv20 high-explosive rapid-firing cannon and the lv20 armor-piercing cannon."
With the additional enhancement of destructive shells, the total damage was as high as 550 points, enough to kill a mid-tier tier-2 evolver with one shot, or seriously injure a late-tier tier-2 existence.
With such lethality, Lin Feng felt that he could directly challenge a chieftain-level wasteland wolf or solo a chieftain-level tier-2 rockhorn horse.
Coupled with the exoskeleton powered armor, providing strength and speed enhancement, he could completely compete with a tier-2 wasteland wolf.
After reading the attribute data of the super weapon in his hand, Lin Feng did not hesitate, then hugged the three-meter-long, nearly half-meter-wide high-explosive armor-piercing cannon with both hands, aiming at the target he had selected earlier.
One kilometer away, a small hill two hundred meters high had a pile of boulders in the middle.
As the trigger was pulled!
With a bang, the strong recoil directly shocked Lin Feng's bow-stepped and hunched shooting posture.
If it weren't for the powerful physique after tier-2 evolution and the power of easily lifting more than ten tons, an ordinary tier-1 evolver would have his shoulder instantly shattered by the powerful recoil even if he held a synthesized weapon and fired a shot.
It should be known that this is an existence with a caliber and power even greater than a 122mm howitzer!
The recoil impact of a howitzer firing is comparable to a charged heavy punch weighing several tons, and the cannon barrel of a traditional howitzer also has a hydraulic buffer valve to resolve the recoil…
Lin Feng was equivalent to hard-eating the howitzer's recoil, and the muscles in his shoulders were a little sore, and his hands and feet were slightly numb in the vibration.
After all, it was normal for a level 20 evolved body to be a little unaccustomed to forcibly controlling a level 25 cannon.
As the large-caliber shell shot straight towards the hillside one kilometer away, there was a loud bang!
BOOM!
The giant rock ten meters wide and two or three meters thick at the point where the shell landed was instantly blown to pieces, with rubble flying everywhere, and the other stones nearby were also affected, shaking and rolling down.
The entire affected area was as described in the attribute introduction, covering a radius of twenty-five meters, close to the size of two basketball courts, and within the central area of five meters, even a giant rock two or three meters thick could be directly shattered with one blow.
Converted to the chieftain-level rockhorn horse, the tier-2 early-stage rockhorn horse that was once chased would definitely not be able to withstand the damage of this armor-piercing shell.
If there was a chance to meet again, Lin Feng would also let the other party experience the feeling of being chased and chased.
Three seconds after pulling the trigger, firing the shell, and hitting the explosion, a strong airflow swept over everyone, enveloping them in smoke and dust.
This was the diffusion of the shock wave. Although it was not very powerful one kilometer away, it was only a three- or four-level wind force.
But for Chen Shanshan and the other two, it was like seeing heaven and hell descending, incomparably shocking.
With just one shot, a clear area of fifty meters wide was blown out on the mountainside two hundred meters high. If this were shot at a group of wild beasts, wouldn't it directly send them to their souls…
One shell was a small beast group.
Even if he encountered multiple large beast groups, Lin Feng would have a very strong pressure to defeat them all.
Chen Shanshan curiously stepped forward to check the huge new gun in Lin Feng's hand.
Ding Yi was busy analyzing how to formulate subsequent plans based on Lin Feng's current combat power.
Liu Qian was impressed by Lin Feng's true strength, further strengthening her thoughts, took the AK rifle, and stepped forward to practice her marksmanship together.
Lin Feng tried two more shells to confirm that the power and damage of the rapid-fire armor-piercing cannon could easily seriously injure a late-tier tier-2 existence, then took the two women of the team and prepared to return.
Just then, a low moan came from the mountain bag that he used as a target.
Lin Feng sounded a little familiar.
Listening carefully, it was actually a wolf howl!?
