Wasteland: My items are infinitely upgraded

#191 - Shock, Empower Grenade, Camp Raider

After Lin Feng finished speaking, he didn't wait for Li Mingquan to respond and directly pushed the door open and left.

The latter stared at his departing back as he boarded the war chariot, the stiff smile on his face immediately receding, replaced by an extremely sinister gaze.

The other party's invitation was nothing more than an attempt to flaunt his own powerful strength, thereby intimidating everyone present.

It was a warning to them that even if they bought a large number of grenades, it would not pose a threat to the seller, and they should not act rashly.

However, Li Mingquan also wanted to witness the so-called powerful gun-wielding esper…

Just how strong was he!

In fact, even he had only heard rumors about the terror of gun-wielding espers. Although there were similar evolutionaries in Holy City, it was difficult to produce a second-tier esper because the secondary awakening trial of this ability was too difficult.

The strongest of the first-tier late-stage espers were comparable in strength to ordinary second-tier early-stage evolutionaries, equivalent to a medium-sized cannon that could hit wherever it aimed.

Although they were indeed very strong, they were far from being terrifying. After all, Holy City, as a large settlement and a first-class force, did not lack various cannons.

However, when Li Mingquan handed over the background information of this newly promoted second-tier expert to his grandfather, Li Hao, the head of the Li family and a veteran second-tier expert who had dominated Holy City hundreds of years ago, the always calm Li Hao…

Revealed a look of astonishment for the first time.

What made Li Mingquan even more puzzled and worried was that he also detected a trace of imperceptible fear in his grandfather's shocked eyes.

Although it was fleeting, it was real.

Later, Li Hao didn't say it explicitly, but introduced an early experience:

When he was at his peak in Holy City, he first saw a second-tier late-stage gun-wielding esper in a Heavenly Ranking competition of the Hunter's Guild.

And that gun-wielding esper, who was also a Holy Temple Knight of the Church, single-handedly challenged the top ten existences on the Heavenly Ranking.

His strength was comparable to the number one person below the third tier!

One should know that at that time, Li Hao could only barely squeeze into the top thirty of the second-tier Heavenly Ranking. Although his strength was strong, he was not yet considered a third-tier King species.

Such deeds and descriptions also greatly shocked Li Mingquan, and he had been restless these past two days.

That's why he took the initiative to come to visit.

"Alright, then let me see what strength you have to earn money while standing!"

After saying in a low voice, Li Mingquan looked back at Cheng Shan, the village chief of Dawn Village, snorted coldly, and turned to leave.

On the other side, Lin Feng, who was returning with the supplies traded with Dawn Village, introduced the six new members to the team.

For this reason, Lin Feng specially set up a mechanical maintenance team, and the captain was naturally the first-level master, Cheng Wentian.

The remaining five third-level apprentices were originally his students and were all ninth-level strengtheners, quickly adapting.

It was a pity that Lin Feng did not see the first-level master and second-level skilled workers who took the initiative to come and join him during his conversation with Li Mingquan.

It was estimated that Li Mingquan's appearance had intimidated them, and they had to consider their personal safety.

Although Lin Feng promised to fulfill his promise and directly increase the level of all those who came to join him by three levels of evolution, there were no corresponding protective measures.

That is to say, technical workers with no combat experience would face life threats once they left Dawn Village.

However, Lin Feng believed that after the weapon test action tomorrow afternoon, when everyone personally witnessed the power of the gun-wielding esper, it would inevitably usher in a group of people who would voluntarily redeem themselves and come to join him.

At that time, the size of the team would be even greater.

Through the previous compensation and arms trade, Lin Feng currently has a total of 260 photovoltaic panels and 28 motors, in addition to five ordinary transport vehicles.

There are also 400 sets of batteries.

In addition to repairing the war chariot and heavy truck transport vehicles, the remaining materials are enough to modify and reorganize the four dilapidated vehicles brought by Ma Chenfeng, optimizing them into ordinary transport vehicles.

The remaining materials will be kept as spares. After all, the team will be traveling long distances in the future, and a total of nineteen vehicles, large and small, will definitely need to replace many parts.

After explaining the tasks of the mechanical maintenance team, the number of team members also increased from the previous fifty-two to fifty-eight.

The daily consumption is not small.

Fortunately, tomorrow morning, they will be able to trade with Zhuangyuan Village and Motorcycle Village, exchanging for the much-needed strengthened meat and evolved meat, as well as the life essence that can be used to appease people's hearts.

After completing the arrangements, Lin Feng first came to the ammunition production workshop.

In fact, it is a carriage of a heavy truck transport vehicle.

After being transferred here, the production efficiency has been significantly improved, mainly due to the sufficient energy supply and the large overall space.

Although it takes two people to complete the production, Amin and Liu Qian can completely take care of both the production of grenades and controlling the vehicle's progress at the same time.

After Lin Feng arrived, he found that the two of them had been promoted to first-tier mid-stage evolutionaries, becoming the highest-level existences in the team besides Lin Feng and the five captains.

Seeing the leader arrive, the two immediately came to the workshop.

At present, the ammunition production machine has achieved a high degree of automation, only needing to arrange two people to be responsible for delivering the production raw materials, and another person at the conveyor belt exit to check whether the grenades are qualified and to pack them.

These jobs can actually be done by ordinary people.

Letting first-tier mid-stage evolutionaries do this is completely overkill.

It's just that ammunition production is the most important thing for a newly built team, the foundation of survival.

Although shells have always been prohibited items, they are not like pure life essence, which is regarded as a taboo by the Holy Spring Church, because the raw materials are in the hands of the Church.

Even if it is discovered that they are producing in large quantities, as long as it is not too outrageous and they are willing to be loyal to the Church, then it is a business in the gray area.

Therefore, Lin Feng can only arrange trusted people to be responsible for the operation of the machinery and equipment to ensure that the source of funds does not go wrong.

"Tomorrow we are going to trade with Zhuangyuan Village and Motorcycle Village, and they each want a thousand pieces."

"The trading time is set for tomorrow morning, it's a bit tight, you two work harder and work overtime."

Lin Feng saw that twelve boxes of ammunition had already been packed, fifty pieces per box, which was six hundred pieces here. According to the current speed of 200 pieces per hour, it would take three hours to produce.

And the current two thousand pieces would take a total of ten hours. It is already past ten o'clock day and night, and they really have to work overtime to make it in time.

Liu Qian, who was an accountant, quickly coordinated a production plan, which marked the raw material consumption speed and the production efficiency of the finished products.

Lin Feng glanced at it roughly and nodded:

"Then thank you all for your hard work. This counts as your overtime, and you will receive double the evolved meat by then!"

Although there is not much mid-stage evolved meat left, it is more than enough to give Amin and the others to eat.

Hearing that they could eat the same level of evolved meat again, the two women's faces showed excitement and joy,

And quickly speed up the movements in their hands.

At this time, Liu Qian carried a half-empty special box, stopped Lin Feng who was about to leave, and opened it and handed it over.

There were a total of twenty grenades inside. There was not much difference in appearance from the ordinary grenades that fell from the equipment exit. They were all standard 35mm models.

But when Lin Feng focused his attention, he quickly noticed that the surface temperature of these grenades was even higher than others that had just been produced, reaching forty to fifty degrees.

“These are empowered grenades?”

Lin Feng took one out and examined it in his hand.

The interior of the heavy truck transport had air conditioning, and even when the equipment was running at full power, the temperature could drop to within thirty degrees, which was quite comfortable.

In this environment, maintaining forty to fifty degrees indicated that the internal temperature would be even higher.

The energy contained and the striking power would naturally be better than other ordinary grenades.

Liu Qian nodded and began to introduce:

“Originally, my ability was not enough to empower such large shells, until I just advanced to the mid-stage of Tier 1, and then I tried it.”

“Currently, the strength of my ability has been greatly improved. I can empower more than fifty standard grenades at a time. It’s just that I will be weak for a while after empowering them and need to eat evolutionary meat to recover quickly.”

Lin Feng nodded, and information about the empowered grenade appeared before his eyes:

「After being additionally empowered, the ordinary grenade has been successfully upgraded to an empowered high-explosive grenade!」

「Empowered High-Explosive Grenade lv16, Red Quality」

「Damage 120 (Original damage 90 points, an additional 30 points after empowerment), killing range 8 meters, can cause additional damage to aberrant contaminated bodies」

It seems not bad. The empowered grenade can already be called a small shell and is comparable to a small-caliber grenade launcher.

It can kill fully armed mid-stage Tier 1 evolvers or severely injure late-stage evolvers. It would be perfect to use it to arm the convoy and equip the combat team.

“Okay, make two hundred first. Wait to receive four kilograms of level 14 evolutionary meat, and then distribute four hundred empowered grenades.”

The most ⊥ new ⊥ small ⊥ said ⊥ in ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥ ⊥ book ⊥ ⊥ bar ⊥ ⊥ first ⊥ hair!

Lin Feng instructed.

Liu Qian nodded. Now, as long as she bound herself to the ammunition production machine in front of her, she would not gradually be marginalized in the team.

This was more important than anything else.

“Received!”

After leaving the ammunition production vehicle, Lin Feng came to another heavy truck transport next to it.

This vehicle was driven by Liu Mingfei and carried the necessities of the convoy, including water, food, and a spare weapons and ammunition storage room.

There were a total of one hundred tons of fresh water stored, which were sent by the Church and the Guild, and were stored in the front half of the carriage, which was designed with a two-hundred-ton water tank.

Occupying ten meters in length.

With a storage capacity of one hundred tons, five kilograms per person per day in the convoy could last for four hundred days, more than a year.

Greatly improving the team's ability to survive in the wild.

In addition, there were five hundred kilograms of enhanced meat, as well as some medicines and weapons and ammunition.

These were the core of the entire team. As long as they were firmly controlled, the team would not fall apart.

After scanning, Lin Feng returned to the Wolf Armor War Chariot in front, intending to rest well for a while.

The previous transaction process was not too complicated, but the final conversation with Li Mingquan kept Lin Feng in a state of tension throughout.

The other party was the first same-level powerhouse Lin Feng had encountered with obvious hostility.

The confrontation between Tier 2 evolvers often determined the outcome in an instant.

Whoever could seize the initiative was the most important.

Especially the small enclosed space inside the car was not suitable for Lin Feng to exert his firepower advantage. Even wearing power armor, he was not sure that he could suppress Li Mingquan.

Therefore, in this conversation, both sides were apprehensive. On the surface, they seemed harmless, but in fact, their core muscles were tense, fearing that the other party would suddenly attack.

Fortunately, the final outcome was acceptable. The two sides reached an agreement, at least to reduce the harm to the permanent residents of Oasis Town and try to maintain the existing order.

However, just as Lin Feng took off his armor, Chen Shanshan in the driving area walked over from the driver's seat with a solemn expression.

Lin Feng narrowed his eyes slightly, realizing something:

“What’s wrong? When we went to Dawn Village for the handover just now, someone infiltrated the camp?”

Chen Shanshan nodded with a heavy face:

“It was someone from Motorcycle Village, with mid-stage Tier 1 strength. He quietly infiltrated the convoy from the right, trying to destroy our two heavy truck transports…”

Lin Feng frowned slightly:

“Where is the person now?”

Chen Shanshan pointed to the ordinary transport vehicle behind.

Inside were a pile of heavy black boxes, carrying a large amount of aberrant flesh.

“The incident happened suddenly, and I directly used my Dark Domain ability to lead him out.”

Chen Shanshan paused and continued:

“Afterwards, I found Ding Yi and asked her how to deal with it.”

“She said it’s best not to kill him for now, imprison him, and don’t let the others in the convoy see him, so as not to cause panic.”

“I thought about it myself and it made sense, but he definitely couldn’t be put in the war chariot. There are many confidential things here, so I threw him to the back.”

“Those black boxes can shield gene radiation, so it shouldn’t have too much impact on him. I specially knocked him unconscious and tied his limbs tightly.”

Lin Feng nodded. Zong Shiyue was in the carriage of the transport vehicle, so there shouldn’t be too much of a problem.

Even if the other party was a death warrior and refused to say anything, he could use Zong Shiyue's mental pollution to invade his thoughts and read memory fragments.

“Let’s go, let’s go take a look.”

The two then came to the transport vehicle towed behind. Because they were both Tier 2 evolvers, they didn’t have to worry about being contaminated by radiation on the surface.

The energy of these sources of pollution was mostly suppressed by the curse of the scorching sun, and they could not spread arbitrarily and distort everything like in the ruins.

When the two entered the carriage, they immediately saw the intruder lying on the ground.

At this moment, he was trembling all over, even incontinent.

Lin Feng frowned slightly. The glass in the car was covered with paper and curtains, and the light was relatively dim.

He slowly walked forward, pressed down on the man struggling like a maggot on the ground, took off the gag tied on his face, and asked:

“Who sent you here? The leader of Motorcycle Village…”

“Or Li Mingquan?”

Hearing the three words Li Mingquan, the man was stunned, then returned to his crazy expression and began to babble nonsense.

Lin Feng twitched the corners of his mouth and knocked on the black box at the end of the car.

Zong Shiyue reluctantly crawled out from inside.

In order to reduce consumption, he did not condense a virtual spiritual projection this time, but directly sounded a voice in Lin Feng's mind:

“Doesn’t seem like he’s faking it, but it has nothing to do with me.”

“That little girl threw him into the head of the carriage, seven or eight meters away from me, so it wouldn’t have much impact.”

As he spoke, Zong Shiyue's voice stopped abruptly, seemingly realizing something. After a pause of two or three seconds, he continued with a slightly faster tone:

“Look at his hands and feet and teeth!”

Lin Feng suddenly turned his head and looked at the black box placed at the innermost part.

Then he pried open the mouth of the man under him and found that his canine teeth had become longer, with a hint of silver-white!

And the fingernails of his tied hands had also become thick, long, and sharp!

Radiation-distorted aberrant phenomenon!

At this moment, Zong Shiyue's voice came faintly:

“That guy actually followed.”

“Heh! Didn’t you want to study the cultivation of alien cells? Now there are ready-made ones here!”
