Wasteland: My items are infinitely upgraded
#221 - Goodbye Shen Yue, the Bishop's real plan
Upon receiving the message, Chen Shan Shan immediately responded:
"Understood. Should I gather the team leaders and notify them?"
Lin Feng, standing tall and looking afar, gazed towards the vast wilderness ahead of the ship's bow and the remnants of the ancient city ruins to the right, slowly replying:
"If the wolf pack truly attacks Oasis Town, although the Oasis Battleship can deal with Chieftain-level wasteland wolves, thousands of Tier 1 wolves will directly attack from behind the Car Lane Slope. In close-quarters combat, my support will be difficult to implement effectively."
"At that time, you will have to rely on yourselves."
Chen Shan Shan nodded:
"Understood, I will arrange it."
After hanging up the communication, Lin Feng immediately returned to the church, preparing to walk around the Upper District and study the Oasis Battleship's most powerful attack method, the Prism Curse.
This thing is essentially an enhanced version of a laser weapon, possessing the speed of instantaneous strike.
After all, in this world, no substance can be accelerated to the speed of light, three hundred thousand kilometers per second.
As long as it is a life form made of flesh and blood, it cannot escape the Prism Curse's strike.
The forms of damage caused by the strike include temperature heating, and the ever-present Sun Curse unique to the wasteland environment.
Especially in the edge areas of the Sun Forbidden Zone, the power is several times better than in the wasteland areas far from the Forbidden Zone.
But correspondingly, whether it's the soaring temperature or the self-ignition effect of the Sun Curse, it only works on smaller targets and living organisms.
When firing at armored convoys, or when the target is wearing heavy armor, the damage of the Prism Curse will be greatly reduced.
For example, when dealing with the Rock Horse Warriors' Rock Horse Armor...
The pottery-steel outer armor is thirty to forty centimeters thick. With a heating rate of five hundred degrees per second within ten kilometers, it would take at least four seconds to reach a high temperature of over two thousand degrees to melt the surface pottery-steel.
The melting point of some special ceramics is even as high as two thousand five hundred to three thousand degrees.
Unless the Rock Horse Warrior is already exhausted or seriously injured and collapses, they would not foolishly stand there and endure the three or four seconds of scorching light exposure.
And more heat-resistant than pottery-steel is tungsten alloy steel, with a melting point that can reach three thousand five hundred degrees. The only problem is that it's too heavy, several times heavier than titanium alloy.
If used to make armor or armored equipment, it is estimated that the endurance provided by the energy source would also be reduced several times.
Like the power armor worn by Lin Feng, it is basically made of lightweight titanium alloy. Although its hardness is second only to tungsten alloy, its melting point is only one thousand six hundred degrees...
Moreover, compared to metallic tungsten, it conducts heat faster.
After being heated to one thousand degrees, the wearer inside the armor has basically been steamed to a half-cooked state. Even if wearing armor, there is a risk of being killed.
As for the heavily armored Rock Horse Armor, relying solely on the Prism Curse's strike is clearly far from enough.
Presumably, this is also the reason why the Li family and others are so unscrupulous.
Or perhaps the Prism Curse is the Church's trump card.
What Lin Feng wants is to understand the assembly principle of the Prism Curse, to see if he can install a small-scale focusing strike device on his own convoy.
Even if there are defects such as slow firing speed, long charging time, and only being able to target lightly armored targets, the biggest advantage of the focusing device is that the launch cost is almost zero.
It can be called a zero-cost laser weapon.
In the wasteland apocalypse with three suns in the sky, the one thing that is not lacking is the ubiquitous sunlight.
However, even if Lin Feng currently possesses the Oasis Key and serves as the temporary captain, he cannot arbitrarily break into the Holy Spring Church's important area, especially from what he observes...
The Prism Curse should be the Oasis's secret weapon, one of its top-secret trump cards.
If he hadn't obtained the Oasis Key and activated the battleship's highest control authority, the system would not have been able to scan all the secrets of the Oasis Battleship.
Therefore, Lin Feng needs a guide.
Someone who is familiar with the Oasis Battleship, especially the people in the Church District, and who would not refuse or expose him.
And soon, a familiar figure appeared in Lin Feng's sight.
Shen Yue, the official acolyte who took Lin Feng on a tour of the Oasis and accompanied Lin Feng's team to the Mount Tai ruins.
At this moment, Shen Yue was in the Church District, having finished her evening prayer practice, and leaving the meditation room below, preparing to go to the Upper District's cafeteria.
When they first met, Shen Yue was only at Tier 1 Initial Stage. Later, she was persuaded by Lin Feng to exchange her accumulated contribution points for evolution resources, successfully entering Tier 1 Intermediate Stage, in order to participate in the Mount Tai ruins exploration mission.
Now that she has successfully collected enough wasteland wolf source material from the Mount Tai ruins and successfully completed the mission, Shen Yue's cleared merits have obviously received a reward.
And she also wisely exchanged it for a new batch of evolution resources, allowing her evolution level to increase from the initial entry into Tier 1 Intermediate Stage to the upper limit of Level 16 of the Intermediate Stage.
Although the progress is not too great, it is more than enough to protect herself in the face of the rebellion that may break out next.
Of course, the purpose of her gambling so heavily is obviously not to save her life in the turmoil, but to climb the ladder to a higher level through the chaos.
It's a pity that the originally fierce battle, under Bishop Zhang Hui's mediation, became a lower-intensity and safer arena competition.
Shen Yue, who was originally planning to show her skills, can now only suppress her excitement and hold back her anger.
However, the increase in strength has also brought her many benefits. For example, on the sleeves of her white robe, the silver emblem originally representing a trainee acolyte with one bar has now become two bars, promoting her to an official acolyte.
She can be considered a small leader in the Church District.
One step further, becoming a Tier 1 Late Stage elite acolyte, she could serve as a captain or apply to return to the Holy City.
Of course, without too much opportunity, wanting to accumulate enough resources through ordinary practice to advance to Tier 1 Late Stage would take decades, even within the Church.
If a riot breaks out, as long as Shen Yue protects the Church area, or kills a few unsuspecting Tier 1 Early to Mid Stage rebels, she can directly achieve a double promotion in evolution level and position within the Church.
After smelling the wind of the Highest Council's martial arts competition, the other cultivators in the Church breathed a sigh of relief, while Shen Yue became the only one who was worried about this.
Lin Feng saw her from afar, and found that even though it was mealtime, this big eater did not have a trace of joy or excitement on her face, as if she had lost interest in food.
Thinking of his current status as Honorary Governor and the temporary captain in charge of the Oasis Key, his esteemed position is unique on this Oasis, allowing him to enter any authorized area...
Lin Feng's mouth suddenly curled up slightly, and he walked towards the stream of cultivators not far away.
As he walked over, many cultivators saw the two-and-a-half-meter-tall power armor and stepped aside, but because Lin Feng restrained his aura, plus Shen Yue's absent-minded state...
So, until Lin Feng appeared behind her and put his hand on Shen Yue's shoulder, she was startled.
"With your current state, you still dream of earning merit in the rebellion and leaving this place?" Lin Feng's voice accompanied his actions.
Because he wasn't wearing the head information armor, his exposed head and face were easily recognizable, and his voice hadn't changed.
So, upon hearing the questioning voice, Shen Yue had already realized who was behind her.
Seeing the familiar handsome face, the originally gloomy mood in her heart instantly vanished. Shen Yue immediately turned around, ready to speak, when she suddenly noticed an Oasis badge hanging beside the power armor's arm on Lin Feng's body.
That was a symbol of the governor's status.
So, the words that had reached her mouth were forcibly swallowed back.
She immediately changed her expression, revealing a smile, adopting a respectful attitude, and bowing slightly:
"Greetings, Governor Lin!"
The matter of Lin Feng holding the Oasis key and serving as the temporary captain hadn't spread yet. Most people only knew his identity as a newly promoted Second-Order Evolver and an Honorary Governor.
Although he didn't have actual power, he was the most esteemed existence below the nine governors of Oasis.
If Shen Yue had encountered the Nineteenth-Level Great Priest of the Mind in the control room earlier, she might not have been so respectful. But she was just a small, formal priestess.
In front of Lin Feng, she was like a child just learning to walk. Naturally, she didn't dare to be presumptuous and joke with Lin Feng as casually as before.
The newest novels are first published on 69shu.com!
However, when she learns of Lin Feng's identity as the acting captain, it is estimated that her bow will have to be even lower, not just a simple nod.
Lin Feng laughed upon seeing this, then patted Shen Yue's shoulder, immediately put away his smile, revealing a rather melancholic and sentimental expression, and shook his head:
"Alas, it seems that there is already a thick barrier between us, and we can no longer be like we were in the beginning."
"Cough cough!"
Saying that, Lin Feng put away his playfulness and coughed lightly twice:
"So now, as a specially invited member of the Church and Honorary Governor of Oasis, I hope you can take me to tour the Oasis battleship again."
"Especially the places we couldn't go to before..."
The tone of the last sentence was emphasized, clearly implying something.
And Shen Yue, who had lowered her head, obviously understood the deep meaning in Lin Feng's words, and immediately replied:
"It's dinner time now. After we finish eating, I will take you to visit the areas that we couldn't go to last time due to level permissions, and carefully learn about the many restricted areas on Oasis that are off-limits to idlers."
After speaking, she began to lead the way forward.
Leading Lin Feng all the way to the cafeteria located at the end of the Upper District.
Now, as a governor, Lin Feng was fully qualified to go to the highest floor above the second floor to taste the precious First-Order mid-to-late-stage evolved meat.
While Lin Feng wanted to use Shen Yue to carefully observe Oasis, below the Oasis battleship, in the Holy Spring Village and the caravan camp on the right, transformations were quietly taking place.
The two high priests stationed in Holy Spring Village were undergoing qualitative change surgery.
These two Nineteenth-Level High Priests had lived for more than two hundred years, and it would be difficult for them to be promoted to Second-Order Holy Temple Knights in this lifetime, because the Church was extremely harsh in its selection of combat personnel.
Members who had exceeded half of their lifespan would be judged as unqualified in the talent category.
After two hundred and fifty years of age, even if they had made great achievements in battle and accumulated enough merit, they could only switch to clerical positions.
After evolving beyond their level, they would serve as Second-Order priests.
And the boring clerical life, only being able to huddle in the city to preach and convert the world, was undoubtedly a torment for priests who were used to fighting on the line of life and death.
Their loyalty to the Lord of Holy Spring could only be reflected in battles where they sacrificed their lives.
Therefore, in order to protect Oasis Town, they were willing to sacrifice their future to prevent the Li family from winning the martial arts competition.
Of course, they were willing to agree to the bishop's arrangement also because these two combat high priests were Zhang Hui's confidants, whom he had personally cultivated.
And after this battle, even if they could no longer serve in the Holy Spring Church, they could become Su An's behind-the-scenes helpers in the future, inheriting his mantle.
Dark chess pieces that were as powerful and loyal as this were rarer and more important than any trump card or help.
Therefore, the Wasteland Wolf evolution agent injected into the two this time did not use the first-stage source crystal, but directly used the two Second-Order Wasteland Wolf source materials traded by Lin Feng.
In this way, the two high priests could also take the opportunity to be promoted to become Second-Order early-stage Wasteland Wolf pathway evolvers.
Even if their strength was a bit weaker than ordinary Second-Order early-stage evolvers, with the blessing of combat experience and the bloodline suppression of the natural enemies between the wolf clan and the Rockhorn Horses...
The chances of winning against the Second-Order Rockhorse warrior in the three Second-Order battles that followed would be greatly increased.
And the original plan to send priests to perform the surgery was actually a big trap.
Except for Bishop Zhang Hui and Priest Su An, the other two priests serving as Oasis governors were not as good as First-Order late-stage combat priests in terms of combat level.
Even with the transformation of the wolf clan's source material, defeating the Second-Order leader among the rebels was tantamount to a fool's dream.
The leaders of the three villages, including Li Mingquan, a descendant of the Li family, had all fought their way out with real swords and guns. Although the intensity was a little lower than the growth of combat priests, the path they had walked was also full of corpses.
Only by sending out the same combat personnel could there be hope of winning the martial arts competition.
Moreover, in the future, the two Second-Order priests could provide great help to Priest Su An.
As for the four First-Order martial arts competitions to be held tomorrow morning, according to the results of the discussion between Bishop Zhang Hui and Priest Su An, in addition to sending out the remaining two high priests, two First-Order late-stage members who were willing to sacrifice themselves would be arranged to inject the Wasteland Wolf evolution agent to participate in the martial arts competition.
In this way, the high priests who were undergoing cross-order evolution and transformation at this moment would still have a day to familiarize themselves.
And the bishop's real plan was not to win the martial arts competition at all...
But to directly cripple Li Hao, the head of the Li family, the leading backbone of the rebels, and a Second-Order mid-stage Rockhorse warrior.
For this reason, two high priests who had been promoted to Second-Order were sent to test Li Hao's strength and consume his state.
Finally, Bishop Zhang Hui would personally step down to kill him on the spot, or achieve a heavy blow.
In this way, all the problems facing Oasis Town would be solved.
When Priest Su An heard Bishop Zhang Hui say this plan in person, the syringe he was pushing into the high priest's body trembled a few times.
And the old man in front of him was radiant, as if he was already confident about his plan.
At this moment, outside Holy Spring Village, after Chen Shanshan received Lin Feng's notification order, she found Ding Yi as soon as possible.
After conveying the message, the latter immediately began to prepare for the evolution of the divine dog, which had grown to the late stage of strengthening...
The best way to deal with the Wasteland Wolves, who are good at hiding and have uncertain whereabouts, is to use their own kind to collect information!
