Wasteland: My items are infinitely upgraded

#173 - The importance of Lin Feng, the road protector, the heavy truck

When Lin Feng revealed that he had another ten portions of level ten pure source essence, the Xu Wanfeng and Xu Wanshuang sisters present were filled with joy.

The latter stood to the side and couldn't help but let out a low exclamation, her slender legs tightly closed, already trembling slightly with excitement.

It wasn't that ten portions of level ten pure source essence were more valuable than the level twenty pure source essence, but that Lin Feng had brought them too many surprises.

Not only could he produce tier-two pure source essence, but he also had tier-one source essence to trade.

And behind these source essences, it indirectly showed the Savior Army leader, Bai Ye's, degree of importance to him, perhaps more important than anything else.

But thinking about it carefully, it made sense. A tier-two evolver who was not even thirty years old was already heaven-defying, plus he was the rarest type of firearms ability user.

A type of ability that was very powerful, whether in the early or late stages.

His strength was getting stronger and stronger.

A tier-two firearms ability user who could continuously provide remote firepower was exactly the strength that the Savior Army, which was seeking a breakthrough, needed most.

Presumably, Bai Ye of the Savior Army would definitely try to recruit and win over Lin Feng during this relic mission.

She might even be willing to offer extremely rare tier-two pure source essence for trade, with the intention of spending a fortune to attract talent.

Even if the upper limit of a tier-two firearms ability user's evolution was only mid-tier two in the future, they could easily suppress other late-tier two opponents.

They could be considered the number one person below tier three.

After all, the originator of this ability was able to severely injure a tier-three king when he was at the late-tier two limit.

Even if Bai Ye advanced to become a tier-three king in the future and led her Savior Army back to becoming a first-class force, Lin Feng, a tier-two firearms ability user, would still be extremely important.

Especially since her ability was not an offensive type.

She needed Lin Feng to make up for the damage and combat power.

Therefore, this portion of tier-two pure source essence and the ten portions of tier-one source essence were all a manifestation of Bai Ye's goodwill.

Even if Lin Feng currently had no intention of joining, with this favor, there would be a foundation for future cultivation of their relationship.

When the Savior Army encountered any crises or difficulties, or needed something, they could naturally persuade Lin Feng to come and help, or invite him to settle in the Royal City and become one of the forces of the Royal City, with each taking what they needed.

In this way, Lin Feng could become a great help to the Savior Army.

Xu Wanfeng narrowed her eyes slightly. Her attention had been focused on the pure source essence before, and she almost forgot that the exceptionally handsome man in front of her was more valuable than the pure evolution agent itself.

After all, pure source essence was just a one-time consumable.

A tier-two firearms ability evolver could release powerful firepower infinitely. In full condition, he was comparable to the output of an artillery battalion.

The value that this kind of destructive power could bring was enough for the leader of any force to promise power and wealth.

On the other hand, after taking the variant evolution path of the Rockhorn Horse, even late-tier two was extremely difficult to advance to.

A guy with the destructive power comparable to a tier-three king, but only the speed and defense of mid-tier two...

To the high-ranking, he was not a threat at all, and could be considered the perfect subordinate.

No wonder the Church also valued him so much.

A group of strictly selected tier-one evolvers.

The special hunter status previously granted to Lin Feng was one of the symbols of their identity.

But to become a true core candidate, they still needed to go through several rounds of strict screening, compete for the Hunter King seed, and be cultivated as the next generation Hunter King.

Flawless evolution by absorbing pure source essence was also one of the basic conditions for becoming a crown prince candidate.

After that, they also needed a strong senior to be their guardian on the road to growth.

Lin Feng was particularly suitable for this. He could select a favorite candidate and cultivate them to achieve the final victory and become a tier-three Hunter King.

In short, given Lin Feng's own value, it was definitely worthwhile for the guild to give up more benefits now and befriend him.

Xu Wanfeng's younger sister, Xu Wanshuang, thought about how good the relationship between Lin Feng and Bai Ye had become.

Was it because Bai Ye had taken a fancy to Lin Feng that she gave him so much help and reward?

After all, the handsome appearance and extremely strong combat power of the man in front of her were enough to make most women fall in love with him.

It was said that the Savior Army leader, Bai Ye, had always been known for her icy beauty after she became famous. As a cold and beautiful goddess, she had many suitors.

Even when the City of Salvation was broken and became a fallen stray dog, there were still many tier-three kings who threw olive branches at her...

Willing to marry her, treat her as a queen, and share wealth and glory.

But these pursuits were rejected by Bai Ye one by one. She led the remaining forces of the Savior Army alone, escaped into the wilderness, and after a hundred years, grew into a late-tier two evolver and made a strong comeback.

And this kind of strong woman had always been an idol that Xu Wanshuang admired and longed for.

Now, she had a special connection with Lin Feng.

This gave Xu Wanshuang a strange feeling.

But as a "business elite", her mind quickly became active, because she might be able to connect with Bai Ye through Lin Feng, and then continuously obtain pure source essence.

She needed source essence to advance to tier two and earn a living.

Lin Feng was undoubtedly a very promising choice.

After some brainstorming, the two women came to the same conclusion, that Lin Feng would become increasingly important.

The current profits were just small money. Building a relationship with him in the future was the top priority.

In Xu Wanshuang's opinion, directly giving up the oasis's industry and following Lin Feng to the Holy City to become his dedicated reception person in the guild might be more promising.

The so-called dedicated person in charge was equivalent to the person in charge set up by the big boss in the guild to help manage the big boss's assets in the guild.

For many power rulers, the accumulation of hundreds of years often amounted to hundreds of millions of points. How to convert them from paper data into substantial gains, such as integrating them into the industry for development and generating compound interest...

This was a major learning.

Therefore, this kind of person in charge was more like a professional manager managing a foundation, providing financial services.

The benefits that the manager could obtain were naturally not comparable to the branch institutions such as the Oasis branch.

The two sisters looked at each other. As the elder sister and the person in charge of the Oasis branch, Xu Wanfeng coughed lightly and said with a smile:

"No problem, let's calculate it at a price of 5,000 points per portion, a total of 50,000 points, a total of 550,000 points."

"After deducting the tier-two evolved meat and tier-one evolved agent, 380,000 points, there are still 170,000 points left."

"May I ask what else Mr. Lin needs?"

Lin Feng nodded and said directly:

"Power armor and electric vehicles, preferably modified war vehicles or long-distance heavy-duty transport vehicles."

"As for the power armor, I want them all!"

Evolved meat, which is now used to restore health, is more expensive than points. It's better to buy it directly than to upgrade, plus there are still 170,000 points left, so why not use them?

Xu Wanfeng groaned for a whole time, she knew the situation of the power armor, and then said:

"The guild has a total of ten sets of power armor, but it has to keep six sets for itself. There are four sets left, one of which has been sold to Mr. Lin, so at most three sets can be given."

"The situation will be tense next, please forgive me."

"When the turmoil is settled, if Mr. Lin still has any needs, the remaining six sets can also be sold at discretion."

Lin Feng raised an eyebrow.

The guild actually wanted to keep six sets. Considering one set for the president, one for Xu Wanshuang, plus Qin Lang and the warehouse manager, the guild must have at least two Tier 1 late-stage evolvers.

Wearing powered armor would give a late-stage evolver the combat power of an early Tier 2, a force to be reckoned with.

However, on my side, according to the plan, only four people needed powered armor, which matched perfectly.

"Three sets it is, then. What about the remaining battle cars and heavy-duty trucks?"

Seeing Lin Feng agree, Xu Wanfeng nodded.

Then, he looked at his younger sister behind him.

The guild's vehicle assets had always been managed by Vice President Xu Wanshuang.

Xu Wanshuang immediately stepped between the two and recited the vehicle inventory list in her head:

"Currently, the guild has thirty regular electric vehicles, which can be used for both transportation and carrying people. Besides that, we also have ten modified small battle cars and ten heavy-duty trucks."

"Among the trucks, three are part of the Pilgrimage convoy heading to the Holy City. Of the remaining seven, five are used as warehouse vehicles, and one has already been freed up."

“If Mr. Lin needs a large quantity, we can sell twenty regular electric vehicles, five battle cars, and three heavy-duty trucks.”

Lin Feng thought for a moment and then asked:

"What are the specs and prices of each type of vehicle?"

Xu Wanshuang cleared her throat:

"The regular electric vehicles are the same as the ones Mr. Lin bought before, mostly eight to twelve meters long and three to four meters wide, priced at five thousand each."

"The modified battle cars use a dual-motor system. On the wasteland, their average speed can reach fifty to eighty kilometers per hour. At full speed, they have a three-hour range, pursuing extreme speed for effective chasing and escaping."

"They are four to six meters long and two to three meters wide, similar to mountain off-road vehicles, carrying four to five people, and can be equipped with various weapons. The price is also five thousand each, without air conditioning."

"As for the heavy-duty trucks, they are all modified from heavy transport vehicles from the Old Earth era, mostly twenty to thirty meters long, five meters wide, and five meters high, with a load capacity of an astonishing five hundred tons."

"To match such a strong load capacity, each pair of tires is driven by an electric motor, with a total of eight to ten motors installed, and the batteries also weigh several tons."

"At the same time, the best quality photovoltaic panels must be used to meet the electricity consumption, and the average speed can reach thirty kilometers per hour, with a maximum speed of fifty kilometers per hour. The speed can be increased by 20% when the vehicle is empty."

"As for the price, due to the amazing load and expected long-distance transportation capabilities, they cost a sky-high price of fifty thousand each!"

Hearing the price of the heavy-duty trucks, Lin Feng gasped!

This was the most expensive thing he had heard of besides Tier 2 evolution meat and source essence.

To think that powered armor only cost around eighteen thousand.

One heavy-duty truck could be exchanged for three sets of armor. No wonder setting up a force cost money like water.

The Savior Army led by Bai Ye only had two heavy trucks, and the rest were ordinary transport vehicles.

Right now, I only have 170,000 points left after deducting the evolution meat and evolution agents. If I buy these three heavy-duty trucks, it will cost 150,000 points at once.

The remaining 20,000 points would at most buy four regular electric vehicles or modified light battle cars, not even enough for powered armor.

But heavy-duty trucks are the core of Tier 2 teams or small settlements, and they are also carriers for large buildings.

For example, the Hunter Guild was built on the chassis of a heavy-duty truck. Its 500-ton load capacity is enough to carry a small villa with a light steel structure.

It can even serve as a production workshop, loading ten or dozens of tons of equipment without affecting the vehicle's operation. A hundred square meters of space can also accommodate an entire production line.

In short, if Lin Feng wants to cultivate his own power and make a career in the future, heavy-duty trucks are an important standard for measuring strength, representing living space and population limits.

Thinking of this, Lin Feng decided to buy two heavy-duty trucks first, for storing supplies and operating production equipment, and use the extra 50,000 points to purchase three sets of powered armor.

As for the remaining one, after quelling the rebellion, there will naturally be plenty of points to exchange.

Lin Feng then stated his requirements: two heavy-duty trucks, two regular electric vehicles, and two modified battle cars.

Lin Feng had actually seen the modified light battle cars earlier when he went out hunting wolves. Wang Chen, the evolver who Qi Shan and Tian Wanrong had joined, was driving a battle car and speeding away from Oasis Town.

The battle car's decoration was very simple, but the tires were wide and large, with extremely strong performance, easily reaching a speed of fifty kilometers per hour in the wasteland.

Buying two could carry ten people, which was enough for the current team members to use.

Xu Wanshuang nodded, took out a pen and paper, and began to take notes.

Xu Wanfeng waved his hand and said:

"The exoskeleton powered armor originally costs 20,000 per set, but Mr. Lin is already a one-star hunter in our guild and enjoys a large discount. These three sets of armor will be sold directly at a price of 15,000 each."

Lin Feng smiled. The discount given as a special hunter last time was 18,000, equivalent to 10% off. This time, 15,000 was a straight 25% off.

It seemed that the profit margin of powered armor was at least 100%, otherwise, the guild would not be so generous.

But saving 15,000 points was quite good.

After the shopping list was drawn up, Xu Wanshuang quickly calculated it and announced the invoice:

"Two heavy-duty trucks, 100,000 points."

"Two regular electric vehicles and two battle cars, that's 20,000 points."

"Three sets of powered armor, 45,000 points."

"The total cost of weapons and equipment is 165,000 points."

"After deducting the remaining points, there are 5,000 left."

Xu Wanfeng frowned slightly and decided to be generous:

"Mr. Lin is our big customer, let's round it down and settle it at 160,000."

"The remaining 10,000 points can be used as funds for Mr. Lin to purchase supplies for the team."

After speaking, he looked back at the man in front of him:

"Mr. Lin, are you satisfied with this?"

Lin Feng nodded and proactively extended his hand:

"Let's do it this way. Pleasant cooperation."

Xu Wanfeng then reached out and shook hands with Lin Feng again, saying with slight excitement:

"Pleasant transaction!"

"I will fetch the evolution meat for Mr. Lin. The rest of the supplies will be handed over to you by Wanshuang."

Lin Feng nodded, and everyone immediately took action.

After coming outside, Xu Wanfeng's figure disappeared into the group of vehicles, apparently going to find the heavy-duty truck that stored the Tier 2 evolution meat.

It was estimated that the remaining two Tier 1 late-stage evolvers in the guild, who had not yet appeared, were now wearing powered armor and guarding the level 20 evolution meat.

Xu Wanshuang, who was following him, came to the Rock Horse battle car parked next to the guild and carefully took the ten small test tubes and a sealed tube of source essence liquid as thick as a forearm from Lin Feng, who took them out of the car.

Seeing the long-awaited treasures, Xu Wanshuang's expression was extremely excited, and her hands trembled slightly. She quickly put them into the low-temperature preservation box brought by Qin Lang.

To prevent the high temperature from destroying the stimulating effect of the source essence.

Lin Feng sat by the window of the battle car, talking to Chen Shanshan about the transaction details and subsequent arrangements.

Ma Chenfeng stood on the iron plate passage outside the battle car, acting as a guard.

Soon after, Xu Wanfeng returned.

The two black boxes in his hand contained three hundred kilograms of level 20 dried meat and three sets of powered armor.

The two sides quickly completed the exchange of supplies.

They began to verify the quality and condition to see if they were qualified.

Seeing so many evolution agents, Chen Shanshan immediately exclaimed.

Next was the moment to transform all the spoils of this Mount Tai relic trip into strength and evolve!
