Wasteland: My items are infinitely upgraded
#189 - Probing and trading, 400,000 points, questioning
Hearing Cheng Shan's words, Lin Feng narrowed his eyes slightly.
After pondering for a few seconds, he nodded and said:
"Since Village Chief Li is so enthusiastic, let him take the initiative to come and see me. I'll be waiting for him here at the village entrance."
Cheng Shan was stunned for a moment, then reacted.
Leader Lin was worried about a trap.
However, he was only passing on a message. Since Lin Feng agreed to meet, he only needed to report the truth.
Cheng Shan nodded, then quickly left with twenty boxes of grenades and entered the depths of the village.
Three or four minutes later, a specially modified medium-sized war chariot drove out of the village entrance.
Its style was different from the light war chariots behind Lin Feng. The entire vehicle was welded with a layer of heavy armor, especially the front and rear, which were reinforced multiple times. The bulletproof windows on all sides were fitted with iron mesh, making it virtually impenetrable.
Its eye-catching appearance was also very different from the vehicle style of Dawn Village. It was obvious at a glance that the occupants were not from the same village.
As it slowly approached, Lin Feng clearly felt a second-order aura, its strength comparable to his own.
When the chariot stopped accelerating and maintained a distance of ten meters from the crowd, a young man in casual clothes stepped out from the side door.
He was only in his thirties, slightly older than Lin Feng, but his actual age was several times that.
However, for second-order evolvers, there would be no changes in appearance for the first three hundred years of their lives. Of course, for some female evolvers who wanted to maintain their youth, it was even easier.
For example, Bai Ye of the Salvation Army.
But the youthfulness of appearance could not conceal the weakness and decay in their aura.
The young man who walked out in front of him, like Lin Feng, exuded vitality and an imposing manner.
Unlike Bishop, who was on the verge of death, or Father Su An, whose aura was strong and profound, a sign of a veteran second-order powerhouse.
So when Lin Feng and he met eyes, both could see the confidence and pride in each other's eyes.
This was the most promising young man in the entire oasis, and the heir to the Li family of Farmer's Village, Li Mingquan.
As the inviting party, Li Mingquan took the initiative to step forward and came to Lin Feng, saying with a hint of emotion:
"Leader Lin, it's been a long time."
The two men clasped right hands, and in the brief moment of exerting force, both understood the other's specific evolution level.
Lin Feng narrowed his eyes slightly. Li Mingquan's strength was also at the early stage of the second order, level twenty-two, which surprised him slightly.
After all, for the Li family, who controlled Farmer's Village, they almost controlled the entire oasis's industry. Relying solely on the fortified meat and evolved meat provided by the Rockhorn Horse breeding farm, they earned half of the Oasis Town market's profits. It should be very easy to cultivate and support a second-order evolver.
Even if he hadn't reached the mid-stage of the second order, he should have at least reached the upper limit of the early stage of the second order, level twenty-three. It was impossible for him to be stuck at level twenty-two for hundreds of years.
The difference between the two was only one level, which required four level-twenty evolution agents, but that was equivalent to more than eight hundred thousand points.
The other forces in Oasis Town might not be able to come up with it for a while, after all, it was nearly a million in cash flow.
But for the Li family, it was definitely not a problem.
In the face of such an important event, to allow a major arm of the family to remain only a level-twenty-two evolver…
Involving evolution agents, Lin Feng suddenly realized that the Li family was not unprepared, but this preparation was unexpectedly intercepted by the Salvation Army.
In the end, it benefited him!
The initial level-twenty Rockhorn Horse evolution agent was handed over to Lin Feng by Bai Ye as a reward for covering the exploration of the depths of the ruins.
If the Holy Pilgrimage convoy had not been attacked, the evolution agents escorted in the convoy would have been sent to the Li family as originally planned. However, the patriarch Li Hao obviously no longer needed the early-stage evolution agent, and it was only possible that it was for the Li Mingquan in front of him, or to arrange for other late-stage evolvers to advance to the second order.
But in any case, Lin Feng's own rapid progress was due to the Li family's rebellion and seizure.
Indeed, chaos is the best ladder for advancement!
Without the intensification of the conflict between the two sides, relying on his own silent development, it would probably take more than ten years to advance to a second-order powerhouse.
Compared to Lin Feng's surprise, Li Mingquan, who sensed the same result from the handshake, was shocked!
After all, when the man in front of him had just returned two days ago, he had only been fortunate enough to advance to a second-order evolver. This matter had been verified by multiple parties and was accurate.
But in these short two days, he had made rapid progress, advancing one level a day, becoming a level-twenty-two evolver, absorbing a full five level-twenty evolution agents!
And Li Mingquan was very clear that this could not be the Church's doing. After all, they had the corresponding second-order Holy Spring Water, which could support a group of second-order evolvers, so they were not interested in other source materials and would not store them in large quantities.
As for the Guild, it was even more impossible!
So the evolutionary source material of this young powerhouse could only be owned by himself.
During this Holy Pilgrimage convoy, the Li family only ordered one level-twenty Rockhorn Horse source material, which was not enough to meet Lin Feng's evolutionary consumption.
Thinking about it, there was only one possibility…
After Lin Feng went to the Mount Tai ruins, he obtained a great opportunity, not only harvesting a large number of weapons and ammunition from the military factory, but also a huge amount of life source material.
Even the raw materials needed for the wasteland wolf source material absorption and transformation that the Church is currently carrying out all come from Lin Feng's contribution.
Now Lin Feng has become a level-twenty-two evolver, on par with himself.
If it had been before, Li Mingquan would have been confident that he could defeat Lin Feng, who was only at level twenty, by relying on the difference and suppression of evolution levels.
Now, facing a gun-wielding ability user of the same level, still in full armor wearing powered armor, even if Li Mingquan controlled the Rockhorse Battle Armor, he would not have the confidence to win, and even holding back the opponent would be extremely difficult.
Once the two sides fought, they would inevitably be severely suppressed by Lin Feng's long-range firepower output.
But fortunately, after two days of intelligence gathering, Li Mingquan had a certain understanding of Lin Feng's role, attitude, and the role he played in the Oasis Town turmoil.
And the fact that he was selling artillery to Dawn Village also confirmed those views from the side.
Lin Feng is not a loyal believer of the Holy Spring Sect!
As long as there is a profit to be made, it may not be impossible to turn enemies into friends, or to remain neutral like the Hunter's Guild.
So when the Dawn Village informant came to report that Lin Feng was trading shells with Village Chief Cheng Shan, Li Mingquan immediately decided to take this opportunity to come and talk.
To test the other party and see if there was a possibility of easing the situation.
At this moment, after the two finished their greetings and let go of their hands, Li Mingquan continued:
"I think there are still many things between us that need to be discussed in detail."
"About Oasis Town, about Holy Spring Village, and the transaction of those grenades…"
Saying that, without waiting for Lin Feng to respond, he asked Cheng Shan next to him to arrange for a high-end conference car to come over.
Then he invited Lin Feng to enter it, sitting on either side of a set of sofas, shielding the left and right, leaving only the two of them.
Lin Feng wanted to refuse, but when he heard that the Li family also had a need to purchase grenades, he planned to get in the car and listen for a while.
Outside the car, at the village entrance, A'Lian and Ma Chenfeng looked at each other, secretly observing the situation. If anything went wrong, they would take the lead in supporting and covering the leader's retreat.
After all, close combat was not Lin Feng's strength.
If Li Mingquan hadn't come empty-handed, showing sincerity, Lin Feng wouldn't have met him at all.
At this moment, the two were sitting in a closed car with good soundproofing, and began to discuss.
Li Mingquan spoke first:
"Thirty-five-millimeter type grenades, priced at two hundred points each. Since Dawn Village has already ordered a thousand, our Farmer's Village also plans to order a thousand, and the Motorcycle Village, a total of two thousand, four hundred thousand points."
"You can pay with anything, whether it's Guild points or in-kind delivery…"
"For example, fortified meat, evolved meat, and Rockhorn Horse bioproducts, Rock Armor Shields, or even Rockhorse Battle Armor. For Leader Lin, who is also a Rockhorn Horse path evolver, it is more suitable than this set of unrepairable powered armor."
"Besides that, if Chief Lin needs vehicles, or rockhorn live horses, as long as our Farm Village and Motorcycle Village can provide them, just name it."
Lin Feng opened the head mask of his armor and looked at the man in front of him. He wasn't worried that selling these grenades to the other party would pose much of a threat to his team.
The thirty-five-millimeter grenades only had ninety points of damage. They could still cause damage to ordinary electric vehicles, but whether it was against the Wolf Armor Tank or the upgraded heavy-duty truck, they were as harmless as scratching an itch.
After these vehicles integrated with alloy wolf bones, they were like wearing a layer of five or six centimeters of titanium armor, and it was difficult to break through the defense without a sixty-millimeter caliber shell.
Although the damage of these grenades purchased by the Li family was average, they could not be used on the Oasis battleship. Otherwise, if they accidentally caused the battleship to stop, they would lose more than they gained and would be forced to flee.
The reason why they still ordered them in large quantities was partly because the opportunity was rare, and partly for self-protection. If the final outcome was to be the losing side, with grenades in hand, everyone could safely evacuate from this place.
Lin Feng only thought for a moment, and then agreed:
"No problem, there probably won't be time to trade today, let's leave it for tomorrow morning."
It was already the day and night of the eighth day, and in seven days it would be the crossroads of the next Holy Spring Day.
Lin Feng said this also to delay the Li family and others as much as possible, and to delay their action.
Li Mingquan nodded without changing his expression, but was surprised by the huge amount of ammunition that Lin Feng had in his hands. He sold three thousand in one breath without even blinking an eye.
And this exactly shows that the other party's harvest this time must be unimaginably large, and they don't care about these shells.
Thinking about it carefully, the gun-wielding ability users have always been proud of their own firepower. With them around, no matter how powerful the grenades are, they are not as good as their own full-strength strike.
Thinking of this, Li Mingquan nodded slightly:
"Then what does Chief Lin need? If there are no desired trading items, it can also be converted into 400,000 points, which will be transferred to you from the Farm Village's account."
Lin Feng had already made arrangements in his mind and replied directly:
"I need ten level seventeen evolution serums, thirty level fourteen evolution serums, and seventy level ten evolution serums."
"Farm Village has been raising rockhorn horses for many years, but has never sold life essence. There should be a lot of evolution serum reserves, right!"
Li Mingquan nodded and readily agreed:
"The average price of a level seventeen evolution serum is 8,000 to 10,000 points, let's calculate it at 8,000, which is 80,000 points, a level fourteen evolution serum is 5,000 points, which is 150,000, and seventy level ten, which is 70,000, for a total of 300,000."
"There are still 200,000 left, does Chief Lin need to exchange for some more enhanced meat or evolution meat?"
Life essence is not rare for a force like them that raises them on a large scale. After all, so many leader-level live horses have produced countless offspring over the centuries, and the reserves of evolution serums have long been piled up like mountains.
The reason for this is that evolution meat is in greater demand than life essence.
After all, a hundred kilograms of evolution meat is only enough for an evolver to eat for less than a year, and to support him in the future, he needs to raise at least a dozen rockhorn horses.
This leads to the redundancy of evolution serums, which accumulates more and more over time.
Chiefs like Lin Feng who have just established a force have a great demand for evolution serums from their subordinates, but they need even more evolution meat.
This is exactly why Li Mingquan agreed in one breath.
Taking away so many evolution serums will inevitably require the purchase of the minimum share of evolution meat, otherwise the team members will only have no combat power due to hunger, and even fall apart.
And if you want to buy evolution meat, you have to be controlled by the Li family of Farm Village and be forced to agree to some additional requirements.
This is the difference in background between the two sides.
The requirements that Lin Feng made, the Li family could agree to readily, but the requirements of the Li family could make Lin Feng feel extremely constrained.
And Lin Feng, who solved the recent shortage of evolution serums, as Li Mingquan thought, still needs a lot of evolution meat to maintain such a team.
"I need one ton of level nine enhanced meat, and five hundred kilograms of early stage tier one evolution meat."
Lin Feng said slowly, and continued:
"Of course, if your village has any extra mid-stage or late-stage tier one evolution meat, I would be happy to accept it."
The guild sent five hundred kilograms of enhanced meat. Now the team has fifty-two members, half of whom are already or about to become evolvers, and most of them are early stage tier one evolution, so the demand for level nine enhanced meat will only become more and more旺盛.
As for the late stage tier one and tier two high-level members, there will not be much increase or decrease in a short time. At most, one more Cheng Wentian will be added, so the demand has not changed much, and the current reserves can be fully satisfied.
Li Mingquan was stunned when he saw this, and obviously didn't expect Lin Feng to need low-level dried meat.
But it doesn't prevent him from making a fuss about it.
After pretending to ponder for a while, he replied:
"Chief Lin, you also know the situation in Oasis Town now. The church here oppresses our large families too much. In recent years, the profits of our rockhorn horse industry have become lower and lower. Many industrial products are forcibly acquired by the church at low prices, and the output of evolution meat is naturally getting lower and lower..."
"In recent years, it has become more and more difficult to survive. Some elderly evolvers have even died of weakness because they cannot afford evolution meat."
"Therefore, this change is what the people of Oasis want. Everyone hopes to get rid of the high pressure of the church, especially the continuous exploitation and bloodsucking of the upper residential area of Oasis..."
"I know that Chief Lin has no intention of staying in Oasis and has no interest in the internal struggles of various parties."
"So I would like to ask Mr. Lin to stay out of this matter and stay under Oasis as an observer."
What should come, will come!
Lin Feng narrowed his eyes and stared at the man in front of him.
Seeing that Lin Feng did not refuse, Li Mingquan decided to strike while the iron was hot and increase the bargaining chips:
"As long as Mr. Lin agrees, let alone early stage tier one evolution meat, even mid-stage and late-stage evolution meat will be offered together and traded directly."
"If Mr. Lin is willing to help, we can deliver them in advance. The free mid-stage and late-stage dried evolution meat will not be less than 500 kilograms each!"
Good家伙!
Even the church only has 500 kilograms of late-stage evolution meat reserves. After dehydration, it is only 250 kilograms of dried meat, of which 100 kilograms were given to Lin Feng.
Now the Li family of Farm Village is offering 500 kilograms each as soon as they open their mouths. What a generous gesture!
It's just that Lin Feng has no intention of buying a ticket on a ship that will definitely sink. It's good to win, but if you lose, you will definitely be suspected by the church and feel alienated.
At that time, it would be a loss to pick up sesame seeds and lose watermelon!
Most importantly, even if the Li family really wins, taking the Oasis battleship and plunging into the north...
It's still questionable whether they can escape from the behemoth of the Holy Spring Church after a long journey of thousands of kilometers!
The risk is too high. Unless the Li family can come up with a large number of tier two evolution serums, allowing Lin Feng to successfully advance to the mid-stage or even late-stage of tier two, he will defect at the last minute,
And then turn around and join the Salvation Army, hiding under Bai Ye's command to recuperate and wait for the opportunity.
Thinking of this, Lin Feng looked at Li Mingquan, who was looking forward to it, and said in a deep voice:
"I want to know, Village Chief Li, or the Li family, what makes you think you can defeat the church?"
"Even if you finally seize control of Oasis, you will still face the pursuit and interception of the entire church. You must know that this is the central area of the Holy Spring Church's territory..."
"As long as one church monk escapes and reports the changes in Oasis, all the major holy cities and subordinate towns will come, and there will even be tier three bishops!"
Hearing Lin Feng's worries and questions, Li Mingquan did not show any sadness, but instead raised the corners of his mouth slightly and said meaningfully:
"Chief Lin's rise was sudden. You probably don't know the current situation of the church. How can you be sure that their internal affairs are monolithic and united?"
As soon as these words came out, Lin Feng's pupils shrank sharply,
Connecting with the various performances of the Oasis Church...
Instantly, there was a bad premonition!
