Wasteland: My items are infinitely upgraded

As Lin Feng's thoughts stirred, the weapon's upgraded stats quickly appeared in the corner of his eye:

"Armor-Piercing Cannon lv22, Orange Quality, Imprinted"

"Basic Attributes: Damage 300, Effective Range 3 kilometers, Lethal Coverage 15 meters, Remaining Tungsten Core Armor-Piercing Shells 150; Upgraded to Host's Level Cap"

"Additional Attributes: Ammo Regeneration 1/1h; Spatial Magazine 150 rounds; Area Damage (Coverage Radius 17 meters, Center 4 meters Damage 300); Firepower Coverage (Six rounds per second for five seconds); Wolf Fang Armor-Piercing Shells (Armor-Piercing Ability increased by 100%, Damage +100)"

"Note: Upgraded by incorporating lv23 Fine Steel Wolf Fang, Armor-Piercing Damage additionally increased by 25, totaling 100, capable of Armor-Piercing Penetration against Second-Order Early to Mid-Stage defensive strength."

"Note: Can freely switch back to lv19 Armor-Piercing Cannon, or lv9 Precision Pistol"

As expected, this upgrade increased the base damage by fifty points, and the additional damage increased by twenty-five points from the previous seventy-five points, totaling one hundred points.

After these two were combined, the Armor-Piercing Cannon gained a high damage of four hundred points. Thanks to the incorporation of high-level Wolf Fang material, the armor-piercing ability was also greatly improved.

Considering Lin Feng's own level twenty-two evolution and three hundred health points, a level twenty-three individual would have, at most, three hundred and fifty health points. Now, with the Armor-Piercing Cannon continuously enhancing lethality, there was nothing to fear.

Currently, dealing with Second-Order Early-Stage evolvers, even Rock Horse Warriors, was already a guaranteed victory.

The only thing that worried Lin Feng was Li Hao, the head of the Li family, a Second-Order Mid-Stage evolver.

According to Priest Su An's introduction, Li Hao was already a powerful Second-Order Mid-Stage evolver when he migrated here with the Oasis Battleship.

Now, hundreds of years have passed, and he has already advanced to the upper limit of the Mid-Stage, which is level twenty-six.

He rose to fame extremely quickly. Although not as fast as Lin Feng, who abruptly became a Second-Order evolver in less than two months, it only took him seven or eight years to quickly ascend to become a Second-Order Mid-Stage powerhouse with his outstanding talent.

So, to this day, he has not yet entered the end of his life.

Priest Su An estimated that he was only around five hundred years old, in the prime of his life, and would only begin to gradually decline after six hundred years, with failing physical strength.

So, he is currently the strongest combat power in the Oasis.

Priest Su An himself had only recently entered the Mid-Stage, and the difference between level twenty-four and level twenty-six was self-evident. In addition, the other party's weapons and equipment were superior to those of the Church.

A set of Rock Horse Armor was enough to run rampant in the Holy City back then.

If it weren't for this, the Church would not have integrated the Origin Bloodline of the Wasteland Wolf, hoping to use this to make the Li family hesitate.

Of course, Li Hao was only the strongest in combat power. If we were to talk about evolution level, it would naturally be the Bishop, who held power over the Oasis Church.

Although he was an Acting Bishop, before this title, he was a veritable High Priest, that is, level twenty-nine at the upper limit of the Second-Order.

If he were the same age as Li Hao, he would definitely not fear the Li family's rebellion. Even if Li Hao had a hundred times the courage, he would not dare to challenge a High Priest in his prime.

After all, the three small levels of difference in the Mid-Late Stage were enough to erase any advantage of the Li family.

However, the problem lies in the Bishop's age.

He had already entered the twilight years of his life, and the traces left by time gradually wore away his former heroic demeanor, leaving only a weak and powerless shell.

Without becoming a Third-Order King, all are burdened by time.

Even the High Priests who converted to the Holy Spring Church will reach the end of their lives after a thousand years of life.

Now, the Bishop can only sit in the center, using the Holy Spring to sustain his strength, and exert some Second-Order Late-Stage combat power, ensuring that the rebel army does not seize the driving command room and manipulate the Oasis Battleship to deviate from its course.

And Li Hao, as a Second-Order Mid-Stage powerhouse in his prime, can take the initiative to attack and choose the starting point of the war.

In other words, he could completely leave the Oasis with a group of powerhouses, first kill Lin Feng and the others. Even if the Church members were willing to come to the rescue, it would be difficult to achieve any results.

Without the Bishop as the main combat force, the Church, which was already lacking in strength...

...was likely to be defeated one by one and suffer a crushing defeat.

Unless Lin Feng possessed strength comparable to the Second-Order Late-Stage, the Church would most likely use him to attract firepower, completely treating him as a pawn to buy time.

Instead of sending a large-scale rescue.

But even so, if Li Hao really decided to attack Lin Feng first, to eliminate future troubles, the rescue power that the Church could provide would be very limited.

Lin Feng was also aware of this, so he made the Church take the initiative to offer terms, waiting for a price to be named.

Only by offering a reward with enough sincerity would he choose to stay and help the Church contain everyone.

If there was no sincerity, then Lin Feng would naturally leave after seeing that things could not be done, hiding his merits and fame.

Now, Priest Su An and the Church did not mistreat Lin Feng.

Seeing that he was unwilling to stay in the Oasis and inherit the farming village's breeding industry, they promised him the title of Honorary Deputy Town Chief.

Equivalent to a legal force endorsed by the government.

Without becoming a wanderer, he could form a large settlement on his own.

The upper limit of its development was naturally a top-tier second-rate force below the Royal City, comparable to the Salvation Army, but its legal status was much stronger.

After all, even if the leader of the Salvation Army, Bai Ye, successfully rushed to become a Third-Order King and established a Royal City, he could not blatantly move forward within the territory ruled by the Holy Spring Church.

He could only migrate thousands of miles to remote areas, such as the cracks between the King's Alliance or further north with the Giant Enterprise Alliance, enduring the harsh living environment of resource scarcity and inconvenient transportation, and compete with other first-rate forces for food.

And Lin Feng could conduct normal trade with the Church or the Hunter's Guild, as well as other large organizations or town forces, accumulating wealth and resources.

The Honorary Deputy Town Chief was a symbol of one's own, officially authorized.

In the future, if the Church saw his loyalty, it would continue to promise Lin Feng promotion to the Third-Order, becoming a King, and establishing a Royal City...

...as long as he continued to follow the instructions of the Holy Spring Church.

Originally, Lin Feng only wanted an identity that allowed him to freely enter and exit the Holy City, but the Church offered such a generous gift, helping him arrange the development route for the next few years in advance...

...This alone was enough for Lin Feng to vow to protect the Oasis Church to the death, and put this legal facade into practice.

Therefore, from the beginning, the enemy Lin Feng had to face was by no means a Second-Order Early-Stage existence, but multiple Second-Order evolvers, and even the rebel leader Li Hao himself!

Then, even if he had a level twenty-two Armor-Piercing Cannon with four hundred points of damage, aiming at the strongest enemy Li Hao, it would still be a bit stretched and not enough.

A level twenty-six Rock Horned Horse-type evolver, wearing level twenty-six Rock Horse Armor, was so strong that he was already comparable to a Second-Order Late-Stage powerhouse.

Even if Lin Feng was still a gunner, it was impossible for him to cross the Mid-Late two stages, exceeding five or six small levels, and defeat Li Hao, who was in his prime.

So, the only hope could only be placed on another weapon, to see if the assembly and synthesis of the two cannons could produce a Second-Order Late-Stage weapon.

At the very least, it had to be level twenty-six.

Otherwise, he would not be able to stop a level twenty-six evolver's forced raid, and even have no power to fight back.

If that didn't work, then Lin Feng could only follow the original plan, go a step further, exhaust his Second-Order Origin reserves, become a level twenty-three evolver, and then enter a semi-dormant state, living in seclusion and preparing for passive defense.

But this was obviously not Lin Feng's style.

He still wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to scavenge as many resources as possible from the major villages of the Oasis.

Including cleaning up the mess after the rebel army was defeated, he had to have the strength and state to suppress everyone.

Thinking of this, Lin Feng immediately put down the great killing weapon, the Armor-Piercing Cannon, and instead picked up the High-Explosive Rapid-Fire Cannon on the right.

Now, he used it more often than the Armor-Piercing Cannon. After all, the advantages of sufficient ammunition and fast rate of fire, which could bring extremely strong firepower suppression, made it a tried and tested weapon for initial probing.

At this moment, the data of the level twenty-two High-Explosive Rapid-Fire Cannon also appeared in front of Lin Feng:

"High-Explosive Rapid-Fire Cannon lv22, Orange Quality, Imprinted"

«Basic Attributes: Damage 190, Effective Range 5 kilometers, Lethal Radius 13 meters, Remaining High-Explosive Rounds 1500; Upgraded to Host Level Cap»

«Additional Attributes: Ammo Replenishment 1/h; Spatial Magazine 1500 rounds; Area Damage (Radius 13 meters, 2-meter center deals 190 damage); Extreme Pursuit (Automatic Mode fires ten rounds per second)»

«Note: Can freely switch back to lv19 Rapid-Fire Cannon, or lv9 Fine AK»

After this upgrade, the ammo capacity reached a massive fifteen hundred rounds, and the weapon in Lin Feng's hand, nearly two meters long, also reached a terrifying weight of over ten tons.

If he wasn't level twenty-two right now, capable of easily wielding ten tons of force, he probably wouldn't even be able to hold it with one hand.

As expected, weapons of the same level are extraordinary.

Fortunately, the recoil of the rapid-fire cannon isn't strong; a bow stance is enough to easily strafe.

And now, the 190 points of damage are enough to pose a threat to early-stage Tier 2 Evolvers.

Even if they are numerous, in groups of three or five, they must be wary of the rapid-fire cannon's terrifying suppressive power.

Being hit by two or three rounds is harmless, but ten rounds in a row, even wearing ten centimeters of hardened steel armor, would lose most of their life in the metallic jet and shockwave.

If the armor-piercing cannon is used to increase the damage ceiling, then the high-explosive rapid-fire cannon is to solve the fear of insufficient firepower.

And now, besides this, it has another particularly important task.

That is, as a source of ammo capacity and rate of fire, to assemble and synthesize with the armor-piercing cannon, integrate its own firepower suppression characteristics, and create a great weapon capable of splitting mountains and opening roads.

However, before that, Lin Feng decided to do another thing well first, and then use the weapon's power to severely deter those who are secretly watching.

That's right, from the moment he returned to Oasis Town and parked outside Holy Spring Village, there have been many people nearby staking out and inquiring, keeping watch with telescopes.

The newest chapters are first published on 69shu.com!

There are lower-class shipwrights on the oasis, the farm village on the left, and Dawn Village four or five hundred meters behind.

The enemy's eyes and ears are everywhere, all wanting to test the reality of this newly advanced Tier 2 Gunner Ability User, whether he is truly as powerful as Holy Spring Church says, enough to rival mid-stage Tier 2 Evolvers.

After verifying the upgraded artillery weapon, Lin Feng left the Wolf Armor Battle Vehicle and walked towards the transport truck behind.

His eyes narrowed slightly, noticing the gazes cast from hundreds of meters away, revealing a sneer.

Then, he stepped into the transport truck to check the ammunition production machine that was being upgraded.

At level twenty-one, it could produce twenty-five-millimeter small grenades with damage as high as eighty points.

Then the next level, twenty-two, will definitely go further, reaching mass-produced thirty-five-millimeter grenades.

And this is also the standard caliber for most grenade launchers.

Lin Feng found an introduction about grenades in a stack of weapon magazines given to him by Father Su'an, a total of two articles and eight pages, detailing the grenade models of various countries.

Among them, the two mainstreams are the domestic and Western ones.

Namely, thirty-five millimeters and forty millimeters.

The power is actually not much different, but within the Oasis Town and even the Holy Spring Church's sphere of influence, the popular ones are all thirty-five-millimeter caliber.

Most grenade launchers are also this caliber.

Moreover, the production of grenade launchers is very simple.

It doesn't require precision to 0.1 millimeters, or even smaller errors; often a cylinder, fitted with a firing pin and launcher, is enough.

There are also many rifles with a black cylinder installed under the barrel, which serves as a grenade launcher to supplement the individual soldier's firepower output.

Just like a signal launcher.

In fact, a grenade launcher is to deliver a grenade to hundreds of meters away in a more precise way.

Although for later strengthened humans or Evolvers, throwing a fist-sized stone three or four hundred meters away is no longer surprising, the problem is that grenades do not explode exactly upon impact.

Either they explode in mid-air in advance, or they delay for one or two seconds after landing, giving the enemy time to react.

And the impact speed is not fast; if the naked eye can capture it, it can be dodged.

Therefore, grenades, as remote small artillery, are very suitable for playing a miraculous effect in small-scale battles of dozens or hundreds of people.

For example, today, many forces in Oasis Town need to defend their camps or drive away rioters.

As Lin Feng thought, the increasingly advanced ammunition production machine in front of him completed its upgrade:

«Ammunition Production Machine lv22, Orange Quality, Imprinted»

«Basic Attributes: Automation Degree 8/10; Durability 10/10; Currently capable of producing ammunition below 35mm caliber; Upgraded to Host Level Cap»

«Additional Attributes: Ammunition Production (When raw materials are sufficient, 9mm bullets 3600/h, 7.62mm bullets 3000/h, 12.7mm bullets/grenades 300/h, 35mm grenades 200/h)»

«Note: Has become an imprinted equipment, next upgrade can choose to strengthen the upgrade direction: automation level, production efficiency, product caliber, etc.»

Lin Feng's face lit up, and he immediately stepped forward to check the updated product list next to him.

At this time, a metal isolation cover is formed outside the entire machine, leaving only two upper and lower entrances at the top.

As raw material entrances, gunpowder is fed into the upper one, and metal is stuffed into the lower one.

Just press the caliber number, and you can automatically obtain standard ammunition at the tail of the device.

And when Lin Feng saw the introduction on the list, he immediately felt relieved:

… … … …

«12.7mm Heavy Bullet, 60g metal, 60g gunpowder; Effective range 1500 meters, damage 60 points»

«25mm Small Grenade, 100g metal, 100g gunpowder; Effective range 500 meters, lethal radius: 1 meter, damage 80 points»

«35mm Medium Grenade, 150g metal, 150g gunpowder, Effective range 800 meters, lethal radius: 2 meters, damage 90 points»

Such power is enough to kill level sixteen Evolvers with a maximum health of only 120 points, and deter level nineteen Evolvers with a maximum health of 150 points.

Although the threat to Tier 2 powerhouses is not enough to cause serious damage, it is enough to protect the safety of their own camp and prevent looting by rioters and later Evolvers.

Moreover, the consumption of one hundred and fifty grams of metal and gunpowder allows Lin Feng to produce approximately six thousand six hundred 35mm caliber grenades in a short period of time.

Even if one is calculated at the cheapest 150 points of points, that is a million points business.

So Lin Feng immediately moved a bag of gunpowder and a copper alloy plate from the corner and sent them into the machine.

After turning on the power, the device quickly started to operate.

It made a clanking sound.

It was only six minutes before the first batch of fist-sized shells was sent out from the tail exit.

A total of twenty 35mm grenades.

Worth at least three thousand points, equivalent to a stripped-down ordinary electric car, or three level ten evolution serums.

It's a money printing machine!

Just as Lin Feng was overjoyed and waiting to get rich, he found that only half an hour after production, not long after the fifth batch of grenades was completed, the entire high-speed operating device suddenly went out.

He walked to the CNC panel and saw that the power was gone.

The ten batteries of the transport truck are only enough for the ammunition production machine to operate for half an hour.

The direct power generation of subsequent photovoltaic panels cannot be used to pressurize and start the equipment with a transformer.

The hope of getting rich that had just been ignited fell on electricity again, and it seems that the transaction with Dawn Village is imperative.

Just as Lin Feng was distressed about the power source for industrial equipment production, the return of Chen Shanshan and others also brought bad news.

Dawn Village and Motorcycle Village have restricted shipments.

As a result, the remaining four vehicles ordered by Lin Feng lacked many functions, especially the advanced motors and photovoltaic equipment, which made the performance of the light battle vehicle and the heavy-duty transport truck not reach the highest standard.

One wave has not settled, another wave rises.

Lin Feng narrowed his eyes and looked at the grenade in his hand.

“Let’s go, we’ll go to Dawn Village and see if they are willing to fulfill the transaction.”
