Wasteland: My items are infinitely upgraded

Looking at the two light combat vehicles and two heavy-duty transport trucks in front of him, Lin Feng was filled with anger.

With cannons in hand, no one could take advantage of him.

Ah Lian, who was relatively clear-headed, quickly spoke up:

"Actually, it's not Dawn Village's fault; the Hunter Guild made a mistake."

At this moment, Lin Feng had already walked up to the light combat vehicle, frowning as he looked at the follower evolver driving.

The two similarly shaped combat vehicles had consistent high chassis, with the chassis being seventy to eighty centimeters off the ground, so the tires were also very large, with deep treads and excellent elasticity.

Most of the tires were made of natural rubber, with the raw materials coming from plantations in other towns, just like Oasis Town's use of Rockhorn Horse breeding to create a photovoltaic panel industry, with a clear division of labor.

Modified combat vehicles like this had to use these good tires to ensure their off-road performance.

Other ordinary electric vehicles were mostly second-hand goods, or even re-smelted from waste tires and materials, and could not be used for long.

But driving on the flat global shipping route was not a big problem, such as on Oasis Avenue.

In addition to the tires, Lin Feng was most concerned about the power aspect, and data immediately appeared before his eyes:

"Light Off-Road Combat Vehicle lv17, Red Quality"

"Basic Attributes: Defense 80; Damage 60; Durability 7/10; Maximum Speed 50km; Can consume five points of life to upgrade"

"Additional Attributes: Extreme Speed Off-Road (can adapt to complex wild terrain, maximum speed 50-80 km/h, lasting three hours), Firepower Strike (equipped with a general-purpose machine gun under the window, 7.62mm caliber, damage 40, 200 rounds of ammunition)"

"Note: The extreme speed off-road attribute motor power is insufficient, and the maximum speed is reduced to 50km/h"

"Evaluation: A light combat vehicle with extremely strong off-road performance, sacrificing defensive performance for this, with a maximum speed of eighty kilometers per hour, but due to the aging of the motor, a new motor needs to be replaced to reach the maximum speed"

After reading the introduction, Lin Feng frowned slightly.

The combat vehicle's modification idea was to exchange defense for absolute performance. The defense was only eighty, and a 25mm small grenade could directly destroy it.

It could only defend against small and medium-caliber bullets, and even 12.7mm large-caliber bullets could cause damage to it.

The degree of defense was roughly equivalent to a light infantry fighting vehicle from the old Earth. It could withstand rifle bullets, but could be dealt with by using heavy machine guns or anti-material heavy sniper rifles.

If that was the case, it could only be applied to some low-intensity battles. As long as the enemy had heavy firepower in their hands, or a fully armed first-tier mid-stage evolver, they would not be able to resist.

Therefore, its design idea was to win with absolute speed advantage. A speed of eighty kilometers per hour translates to more than twenty-two meters per second.

This speed was actually not fast. According to the professional evaluation standards of the old era, some level-nine enhanced humans could explode with such speed.

It was even more common for evolvers.

According to the measurement data of that year, the speed limit of first-tier early, middle, and late-stage evolvers was about 30-60-90 meters per second, respectively.

That is, the limit values of one hundred kilometers, two hundred kilometers, and three hundred kilometers, far exceeding all creatures, and can be called a little Superman.

But being able to run at this speed does not mean that it can be maintained all the time.

Not to mention that under a full set of heavy armor, the original speed would be greatly reduced, and it could only move slowly. In addition to physical limitations, it would be exhausted within half an hour under normal full force.

No one can fight tirelessly unless they are willing to burn their life force and overdraft their evolutionary potential.

Especially in wasteland battles, there is also the high-temperature sun exposure of the three suns overhead. At a high temperature of forty degrees, the rubber of the tires will dissolve after being exposed to the sun for a long time, let alone organic life forms.

Even if the physical fitness of the evolvers has been multiplied, it is inevitable that there will be an impact. The upper limit of the outbreak and the duration are far inferior to the limit value in a comfortable environment.

Moreover, the limit level can only be maintained for a dozen seconds, just like the fastest speed of a sprinter, only that brief moment of peak, and then it will quickly exhaust.

In this way, an off-road combat vehicle that can run at a speed of eighty kilometers per hour, while adapting to the complex terrain of the wasteland, climbing mountains and ridges, easily crossing rocky surfaces…

He sent Chen Shanshan and the other two there. Chen Shanshan mainly represented his will, Liu Mingfei was responsible for checking the vehicle conditions, and Ah Lian was slightly more flexible, so that she could respond in time in case of any accidents.

Now that the change has already been laid out in front of him, he naturally wants to hear her opinion.

"What did the guild say? Our order should have been directly obtained from the guild, why did we have to temporarily find Dawn Village to equip the parts?"

Lin Feng asked slowly. After reading the vehicle's attribute introduction, he calmed down and thought of this level.

Ah Lian sighed softly and shrugged helplessly:

"In addition to the three heavy trucks that the guild always has on hand, which are responsible for transporting goods, the remaining empty vehicles are all in a rotating maintenance state."

"Mainly the vehicles of the pilgrimage convoy, which travel to the Holy City and back, are tens of thousands of kilometers long. Each time they come back, they have to be maintained and rotated."

"At the same time, running empty cars for a long time will also cause wear and tear, and the guild can't afford a professional mechanic team, so a long time ago, they restored special vehicles such as combat vehicles and heavy-duty transport vehicles."

"That is, they usually run in the Fifth Oasis Village and do not need too strong power. The maximum speed is ten kilometers."

"So their parts were disassembled and sent to Dawn Village, especially high-grade photovoltaic panels and brushless motors."

"Dawn Village is responsible for using these parts to repair and replace the guild's pilgrimage convoy, and also for daily maintenance and repair of the parts."

"The guild only needs to pay a maintenance fee to ensure the normal operation of the pilgrimage convoy."

"Vice President Xu said that the pilgrimage convoy maintains the trade route, and also asked the leader to bear with it a little bit more. They are already negotiating with Dawn Village."

Lin Feng frowned even more:

"What did Dawn Village say? Did they directly refuse to give it?"

Ah Lian shook her head:

"That's not true. After all, it is nominally the guild's assets, but the current situation is turbulent…"

"They said that it has not been repaired yet. Although only the Farm Village suffered heavy losses in the last pilgrimage convoy attack, the guild's convoy was also affected. Guns and cannons have no eyes, and some motors were hit by stray bullets and need a period of time to repair."

As she said that, Ah Lian opened the door of the combat vehicle and shook the machine gun located between the rear seats to the top of the window:

"This machine gun and the ammunition are Vice President Xu's free gift to express his apology."

Lin Feng sneered:

"Have they given a clear answer? Time waits for no one."

Ah Lian hesitated for a moment and looked at Chen Shanshan next to her.

The latter came out and replied:

"The motors of the four cars are all taken from other cars. Vice President Xu also knows that we are currently in urgent need and promised us at the latest three days later."

Three days later?

It is already the eighth day, and three days later will be the eleventh day. There are only four days left before the next Holy Spring Day passes the fork in the road.

The Li family will definitely take action at that time.

If Dawn Village were to be breached and plundered, where would he find intact parts and equipment?

Without these capabilities, how would the convoy keep up with the speed of the Pilgrim Convoy and successfully reach the Holy City?

In short, a step slow leads to continued slowness.

Lin Feng was not one to sit and wait for death, and now was not the time for delays.

Continuing to feign compliance would likely be seen as a sign of weakness by the enemy.

Thinking of this, Lin Feng regained his composure, glanced at the distant gaze fixed upon him, and then looked down at the people before him:

"Are Ding Yi and the others still recruiting?"

A'lian nodded.

"A'lian, go back again and tell Vice President Xu to send ten Level 10 evolution serums and five hundred kilograms of Level 9 enhanced meat, as compensation for the substandard goods."

Ten Level 10 evolution serums were equivalent to ten thousand points, but with the current situation, even a pound of evolution meat was hard to come by, so Lin Feng had to settle for the enhanced meat.

One kilogram was probably being sold for ten points.

Five hundred kilograms was five thousand points, which wasn't much, barely enough to meet the daily needs of his Tier 1 early-stage evolvers.

Originally, Lin Feng had planned to exchange grenades for it, but now it seemed unnecessary.

A'lian nodded. The leader's request, when converted, was only twenty thousand points. Although it seemed like a lot, the transaction amount this time reached one hundred and twenty thousand points.

It was fine as long as the war chariots were available, after all, they were only five thousand points each, which wasn't much.

But the heavy transport truck, as the hundred-ton king of the wasteland, was the core of the core of the convoy, costing fifty thousand points each. Now that it lacked a matching motor and photovoltaic panels, its mobility would definitely be greatly reduced…

Only collecting twenty thousand points as compensation, the leader was already very kind.

After explaining this matter, Lin Feng first walked to the heavy transport truck at the rear to check the situation.

This truck was a modified version of the old heavy-duty truck.

Lin Feng had seen it in the early hours of the morning when he was a child. It was so long that it couldn't fit in a traffic light intersection, nearly thirty meters in length, with eight pairs of wheels or more, three in the front and five in the back.

Now, this modified version of the hundred-ton king was even more exaggerated, reaching thirty-two meters in length and five meters in both height and width. The front of the truck alone was as long as an ordinary electric car.

The tires were a full meter high, four in the front and six in the back. Even if three or four tires were blown out, it wouldn't affect its travel.

The reason for installing so many tires was to solve the load-bearing problem.

The twenty-seven-meter-long carriage, four meters high and five meters wide, had a rated load of 540 tons, but in reality, it could carry over five hundred tons. As long as it could fit, it could be loaded.

It was simply a matter of adding more tires to increase power.

If it were the old diesel engine, with its abundant power, it could even pull seven or eight carriages in a row, turning the hundred-ton king into a train.

There were no such resources now, so multiple electric motors had to be used for propulsion. However, the power of electric motors was actually stronger than internal combustion engines. Many mining trucks in mines were driven by electric motors, using fuel combustion to provide energy.

Unfortunately, there were no such resources now.

Unless battery replacement stations were set up on the migration route, even if large electric motors were installed, there wouldn't be enough power input. The performance limitations weren't in the electric motors themselves, but in the energy collection and storage problem.

Currently, both heavy transport trucks were facing the same problems:

「 Heavy Transport Truck lv20, Orange Quality 」

「 Basic Attributes: Defense 150; Damage 100; Durability 8/10; Maximum Speed 20km/h; Can consume ten points of life value to upgrade 」

「 Additional Attributes: Super Payload; Long-Distance Transport; Iron Head Impact 」

「 Super Payload: Possesses an extreme load of thousands of tons; Due to performance degradation, it currently only has a rated load of five hundred tons. After being fully loaded, the speed decreases by 50%, ten kilometers per hour.

Long-Distance Transport: Equipped with five tons of high-density batteries, providing continuous power for twelve hours, supporting long-distance transport; The batteries are severely aged, the endurance time is halved, and the low-quality photovoltaic power generation is halved per hour. It takes from twelve hours to twenty hours to fully charge, and the overall performance is only 25%.

Iron Head Impact: The huge load brings high impact damage, but due to the significant reduction in the performance of the entire vehicle, the damage has dropped from the original 200 points to 100 points. 」

「 Note: The electric motor is aging, and after the overall performance of the vehicle decreases, the maximum speed has been reduced from fifty kilometers to twenty kilometers. 」

「 Evaluation: A poorly performing heavy war chariot. Because the quality of the main components such as photovoltaic panels, energy storage batteries, and drive motors has been reduced, the overall performance has been greatly reduced. It needs to replace the matching equipment to have long-distance transportation capabilities, otherwise it is only suitable for medium and short-distance transportation within a thousand kilometers. 」

Only 25% of the original performance was left. The high-energy batteries that could originally last for twelve hours now only had half the charge, and even the photovoltaic power generation couldn't keep up, requiring more than twenty hours to charge…

Lin Feng took a deep breath.

The power generation of the heavy transport truck was the key to running the ammunition production machine. Without it, the production equipment in his hands was just for show.

There was no way to convert raw materials into high-value-added shells and massively harvest oasis resources.

After reading the detailed introduction of the heavy transport truck, Lin Feng's face was unpleasant.

He had a general idea of the goal of this trip to Dawn Village.

So he turned around and looked at the few people in the team, and then said:

"Dawn Village is bullying people too much. I'm going to use the latest harvest to reason with them and see if their camp's defensive forces can withstand the artillery coverage."

As he spoke, Lin Feng continued to arrange:

"A'lian, go to the guild and make my attitude and needs clear to Xu Wan Shuang. After you're done, stay there and wait for me to come over."

A'lian received the order, then put on her battle armor, and drove a war chariot away.

The remaining Chen Shan Shan looked at Lin Feng.

Obviously, she wanted to follow Lin Feng to Dawn Village to reason things out.

However, Lin Feng had other considerations and said:

"You stay here. The convoy can't be without someone in charge, otherwise it will be easily plotted against."

"You and A'lian have already shown your faces. The enemy knows your strength. If they don't see you leave, they naturally won't dare to act rashly."

"Come with me first."

After giving half of his instructions, Lin Feng, unable to wait, took Chen Shan Shan back to the war chariot first.

He took out a portion of Tier 2 pure source substance from the freezer and handed it to Chen Shan Shan, who had just stepped into Level 19, as well as a portion of Level 19 evolution meat:

"I'll be back soon, it won't take too long."

"Prepare yourself here. After I come back, start the cross-tier evolution and become a Tier 2 powerhouse."

As he spoke, Lin Feng took out two sets of power armor:

"Wear these after I leave. With the power armor's blessing, even if the enemy comes to test the waters, you can easily deal with them."

Chen Shan Shan took a deep breath:

"Then you have to wear it too."

Lin Feng nodded:

"Don't worry, relying on the harvest from the negative fifth floor of the ruins, I have already been promoted to a Level 22 evolver. Ordinary Tier 2 early-stage enemies are no match for me at all. Even if Li Hao, the head of the Li family, comes in person, I can wear the power armor and fight him."

Feeling Lin Feng's aura suddenly become stronger, Chen Shan Shan temporarily calmed down:

"Okay, go and come back quickly. Leave the camp here to me."

After helping Lin Feng put on the power armor, she watched him take a batch of small shells from the transport truck, drive another off-road war chariot, and speed towards Dawn Village behind him.
