Wasteland: My items are infinitely upgraded

#170 - Weapon control, mutual testing, guild leader

The surprises Lin Feng brought to the guild were simply too many.

Just his appearance and status as a second-tier evolver could sway the situation in Oasis Town and influence everyone's plans.

And now, he brought the Hunter Guild an enormous surprise,

an opportunity sufficient to change everyone's fate!

After listening to what Lin Feng said, Xu Wanshuang's breathing unconsciously deepened.

The slight panting, accompanied by her swelling chest, rose and fell, as a flush crept from her swan-like neck to her snow-white face.

A slight tremor ran through her body, only suppressed after several seconds of effort. Enduring the throbbing in her heart, Xu Wanshuang took a deep breath, looked at the man before her with a smile that wasn't quite a smile, and slowly said:

"I wonder what matters Chief Bai entrusted to Mr. Lin, and what reward was offered?"

When Xu Wanshuang's older sister, the president of the Oasis Guild, learned about the Church's Wasteland Origin modification plan, she predicted that Lin Feng's team might encounter the Salvation Army exploring near the Mount Tai ruins.

Therefore, the Hunter Guild naturally knew what Bai Ye, who had advanced to the late stage of Tier 2 and possessed level 29 evolutionary strength, needed most now…

Nothing more than guns and food, the foundations upon which all forces stand in the wasteland.

Food was easy to solve. Many forces had breeding industries, mostly large herbivores, or those with more advanced technology directly used biotechnology to cultivate muscle tissue from advanced cells.

Evolved meat food reserves, as a problem faced by all forces, was actually easy to solve because everyone had enough.

For example, by paying a price, you could buy breeding wild beasts, or directly perform surgery to capture them yourself.

But the most troublesome thing was not food, but another foundation, the guns to protect the food.

As the saying goes, political power grows out of the barrel of a gun.

Without weapons, how could one defend the governed towns and protect or deter the subjects under their command?

Evolvers themselves, as armed forces, exist because of evolved meat. Besides that, weapons and equipment are also of utmost importance.

For example, a fully armed evolver is enough to challenge several existences of the same level.

Lethality and destructive power can be increased several times.

Otherwise, it would have been impossible for Lin Feng to get his start with a small revolver that couldn't kill a Tibetan mastiff by relying on the upgrade system.

In fact, weapons and ammunition were not scarce, but their circulation and trade were artificially restricted, creating scarcity.

Evolved meat is taken from evolved wild beasts. For large forces, it cannot form a moat of governance, but weapons are different.

Especially the physiques of evolvers far surpass ordinary humans. Cannons or heavy machine guns, large-caliber weapons, etc., that could only be placed on vehicles such as chariots in the past…

In the hands of today's evolvers, they are like fish in water. They can directly pick up hundreds of kilograms of 20mm machine guns, or even close-in weapon systems, while charging and firing.

Coupled with battle armor or power armor, the so-called humanoid tanks are not just talk!

Therefore, the importance of weapons and ammunition is self-evident.

However, the equipment and various raw materials for producing weapons are in the hands of major forces, and no one else is allowed to interfere.

This is to curb the development of small forces in the wasteland.

Including some first-class forces' royal cities, many need to rely on top forces after initial construction to maintain their normal operation.

This is also why gun ability users are so popular. They can bypass the authorities' weapon control and naturally obtain powerful firepower.

And Bai Ye, who is about to advance to Tier 3, is most worried about the food and weapon problems encountered in the future construction of the royal city.

Therefore, for the past ten years, she has been looking for news of the sale of weapon production equipment everywhere, and has also repeatedly investigated suspected ruins.

When the Hunter Guild recovered the news of a small lathe and a military factory from a hunter team, they immediately thought of Bai Ye's Salvation Army.

It was a pity that after some contact between the two parties, Bai Ye ultimately rejected the guild's highest request and exchanged a pure Tier 2 origin for all the information about the Mount Tai ruins where the military factory was located.

Including the internal structure and the dangers existing in the bottom three floors, such as a Tier 3 Aberrant King.

In the end, Bai Ye only obtained the equipment status in the military factory, and learned about the types of facilities stored, with ten portions of level 10 pure evolution fluid.

But Bai Ye was obviously no pushover. After obtaining the key information, she turned around and spread the news among the wanderer forces in the wasteland that a military factory had appeared in the Mount Tai ruins.

For a time, heroes gathered, and even many late-stage Tier 1 evolvers took the lead in taking a risk.

And these forces and teams naturally became the stepping stones for the Salvation Army.

Paving the way for subsequent in-depth exploration.

But what kind of person is Bai Ye? Her real purpose has never been just weapon equipment.

As early as when she passed through Oasis Town many years ago, she noticed the contradictions between the local clans and the Church.

When Oasis separated from Holy City, the Church conscripted some people from many families in the city, promising many benefits to ensure the logistics of the Oasis warship afterward.

But who would have thought that the environment where Oasis Town was located would be so harsh and difficult, almost a barren land.

The Church only wanted to maintain the acquisition of information about the restricted area, while the newly arrived civilians and wastelanders were constantly exploited, so contradictions were buried from that time on.

Sooner or later, when the local clans' wings gradually grew full, they would resist, wanting to seek more living space, and become increasingly dissatisfied with the Church, harboring resentment.

Eventually moving towards opposition, even confrontation!

And the guild only knew that the Salvation Army would attack the military factory in the Mount Tai ruins, and did not understand that Bai Ye's initial purpose was actually the Li family's Rockhorn Horse industry.

What could be more convenient than directly seizing the breeding industry that took great effort and time to cultivate?

However, these things had nothing to do with the guild, and even better aligned with the guild's interests.

After all, the devastated and severely damaged Oasis settlement needed the guild to assist in the aftermath and send materials and equipment for reconstruction.

In addition to profiting from this rebellion, the guild was most concerned about the acquisition of pure origin.

Therefore, when Lin Feng mentioned the Salvation Army and Bai Ye, Xu Wanshuang immediately wanted to know the details of the cooperation between the two parties.

But when she spoke, she suddenly realized her gaffe, exposing her and the guild's intentions.

The man before her stared with a smile that wasn't quite a smile, at Xu Wanshuang, whose whole body was trembling with excitement, and whose cheeks were flushed with blood.

Lin Feng knew that the guild was not surprised by his meeting with the Salvation Army, meaning that they had actually had transactions and cooperation long ago.

And what the Hunter Guild sought was nothing more than pure life origin.

So, after Xu Wanshuang lowered her head to calm down, Lin Feng slowly said:

"I wonder, President Xu, what kind of reward are you hoping for?"

Xu Wanshuang took a deep breath, calmed down, and restored the smile on her face:

"Mr. Lin, as a gun ability user, I believe Chief Bai of the Salvation Army also appreciates you very much and wants to recruit you as a member of the team, with generous treatment."

"But if it's just cooperation, it must be related to the Salvation Army's purpose this time, going deep into the Mount Tai ruins to find the rumored military factory."

"So, Mr. Lin encountered the Corruption's attack, allowing the previously exploring team to die in peace."

Lin Feng smiled:

"It seems the Guild's cooperation with the Salvation Army isn't shallow."

Xu Wan Shuang raised her eyebrows, as such words shouldn't be said publicly, especially under the rule of the Holy Spring Sect. The Vagrant forces have committed countless crimes and are wanted globally.

That's why the transactions between the two sides are so secret and cautious. Although everyone is aware of it behind the scenes, no one will admit it in public.

Slightly shaking her head, Xu Wan Shuang replied:

"The Guild is just a trading platform, undertaking all entrusted tasks. It will find suitable contractors for the client or help connect needs."

"We will recycle valuable items, and you can come to us for any needs."

"We are fair and just, only trading."

"We deal with matters and objects, not people."

Lin Feng nodded. As expected, being in a high position is different. It sounds like nothing was said, but also like everything was said.

Since the point had been made, Lin Feng didn't probe further and went straight to the point:

"Don't be anxious; the Salvation Army is just a Vagrant force. What good things could they have?"

"The things Chairman Xu needs may not be the rewards that can help me. I came here to monetize them. I just don't know what price Chairman Xu can offer."

Xu Wan Shuang narrowed her eyes. She didn't expect Lin Feng to react so quickly, also becoming a riddle-solver.

She didn't directly retort but instead spoke of another matter:

"I wonder if Mr. Lin ultimately helped the Salvation Army complete their commission?"

Lin Feng nodded, generously admitting:

"Fortunately, I didn't disgrace my mission. With Leader Bai Shou's cooperation, I killed a Tier 3 Aberrant King."

"Ultimately, I assisted the Salvation Army, returning fully loaded."

Hearing this, Xu Wan Shuang was both surprised and delighted. Forgetting her composure, she asked:

"Are there any Tier 2 materials?"

Lin Feng remained noncommittal, only smiling calmly.

Xu Wan Shuang thought she understood, and the expression on her face gradually changed from surprise to seriousness, as she slowly said:

"This matter is of great importance; I cannot make the decision alone."

"Especially the items Mr. Lin wants to exchange are not something I can sign off on. According to the rules and regulations, the Chairman of the Hunter Guild needs to discuss it with Mr. Lin in person."

"Please, Mr. Lin, be patient and rest for a moment."

After speaking, Xu Wan Shuang got up to arrange for Lin Feng to sit on the sofa aside. Then, she went outside and had Qin Lang, another Tier 1 Late-Stage manager in the guild, immediately rush to the Oasis to notify the Chairman that there was an important matter to discuss.

Finally, she had the service girl from the VIP box downstairs bring pastries and tea, personally serving Lin Feng in the office.

At this time, Lin Feng was sitting on the sofa, with a tall and graceful figure only a few inches away from him, allowing him to smell a faint fragrance.

Xu Wan Shuang's straight legs were close together, and as she bent down to pour tea for Lin Feng, her perfect curves were fully revealed.

It seemed that the Deputy Chairman Xu had other transaction ideas besides the physical items for this young Tier 2 Evolver.

However, Lin Feng didn't need it for the time being. Although Xu Wan Shuang was impeccable in all aspects, whether it was her figure, appearance, strength, or status.

Compared to her, those wasteland residents or permanent residents were like savages.

This was also the reason why Lin Feng had no interest in them at first. The smell of not bathing for months or even years was enough to deter anyone.

Moreover, he was too busy running around for a living at that time. If he still thought with his lower body, then that's all he would be in this life.

Now that the war is approaching and the situation is urgent, Lin Feng doesn't want to create unnecessary troubles before the battle.

Especially since the Hunter Guild has already revealed its intention to use him to influence the situation in the Oasis, he must act more cautiously to avoid being put in a passive position.

Moreover, Lin Feng is no longer the same as before. As a Tier 2 Evolver, even if he wants to branch out, develop his own family, and establish his own power, it must be someone like Bai Ye at least.

As for the current core members, only Chen Shan Shan is suitable to be his woman.

It's not because of her evolutionary potential; it's simply because she is obedient enough, which is the most important criterion.

And the more chaotic and unpredictable the world is, the more precious trust and loyalty become.

As long as someone is obedient enough and loyal, even if it's a pig with no evolutionary talent, Lin Feng will use countless resources to forcibly catalyze it into a Tier 2 Evolver, or even a stronger being.

To help him guard the city-state.

Besides, Chen Shan Shan has excellent talent, just lacking life experience and theoretical knowledge, which can be made up for later. Moreover, Chen Shan Shan's body has just started to develop. She used to be malnourished, looking like a fourteen or fifteen-year-old even at eighteen. Now that she is living a good life with plenty of meat, she has not only grown taller but also become more plump.

Lin Feng is very satisfied with this, so he has never restricted her diet.

After all, the body is the capital for combat evolution.

Just as Lin Feng's heart was swayed by the beauty before him, with Qin Lang's notification, a Tier 2 powerhouse stationed in the Oasis secretly left the warship.

Her departure instantly attracted many gazes.

As the balancer between the Church and the major families, the Chairman of the Hunter Guild also plays a role in mediating conflicts.

After all, as long as she is there, it is difficult for the two sides to fight.

A Tier 2 Mid-Stage Evolver is even more important than Lin Feng in this struggle, able to influence the outcome of the battle in the Oasis.

And her unexplained departure has given many lurking existences more ideas.

But now the Chairman can no longer care about so much.

Following behind Qin Lang, she quickly shuttled through the narrow and cramped corridors of the ship's cabin.

If the news that her sister Xu Wan Shuang obtained is true, then for the Guild, the transaction with Lin Feng is even more important than the chaotic situation in the Oasis.

With only a few seconds of shock and weighing the pros and cons, the Chairman chose to leave the Oasis she was stationed in and head to the Fifth Village Guild, a place she hadn't set foot in for a long time.

But now, there exists a treasure there that is more valuable than all the Guild's materials and equipment!

While the two were rushing to the Fifth Village at the end of the Oasis Town...

This news has already been passed to Bishop and the Li Family's Patriarch, Li Hao. Both of them had flickering eyes, deep in thought.

And the members below who wanted to "make contributions" were already eager to move, waiting for the right opportunity.

Outside Oasis Town...

The Salvation Army and his party, after leaving the Feicheng Shelter ruins, sent the supplies to their settlement in the wasteland. Then, they drove out ten transport trucks and more than ten battle vehicles, and arrived at the intersection with the main force led by Bai Ye.

Preparing to ambush the Farm Village of Oasis Town here.

At the same time, inside the Mount Tai ruins, Meteor Wolf Valley.

After realizing that the dark turmoil was approaching and the Wolf King was about to be born, the leader of the wolf clan, Wolf Ao, level 29, who was already in his twilight years, led thousands of wolves under his command and started the first stop of their hunt.

Heading to Oasis Town to hunt down the humans, especially the Tier 2 Rockhorn Horse-pathway Evolvers.

At this time, Lin Feng was still not clear that because of the butterfly wings he had flapped, many unexpected factors would descend on the already turbulent Oasis Town.
