Wasteland: My items are infinitely upgraded

Seeing the two level-13 hind legs, Lin Feng immediately got up and went forward to re-examine the seven-meter-long male leader in front of him in detail.

In the end, he discovered that in addition to the two thighs, the two front legs and the ribs on the body were mostly level-13 horse meat.

He called Chen Shanshan, and the two of them scraped off a total of more than 800 kilograms of muscle.

Including the level-14 evolved meat containing the essence of life, the muscle content of this male Rockhorn Horse exceeded one ton.

The remaining internal organs and tissues showed that most were level-11 and level-12 horse meat, and the accumulated toxin content was high, so it was not recommended to eat them directly.

This part also weighed more than 600 kilograms.

Lin Feng directly placed it on the ground to dry.

The remaining giant skeleton also weighed 500 kilograms, plus the 800 kilograms of outer rock armor…

This first-tier intermediate, level-14 male Rockhorn Horse leader weighed a full three tons.

Among the 800 kilograms of rock armor, there were eight photovoltaic rock panels, about 300 kilograms, the value of which was second only to the evolved meat and was also quite considerable.

In addition, there was also the pair of two-meter-long horse horns, a total of four meters long, and the curvature was beautiful. When lowered, it was a crescent-shaped shovel fork.

Coupled with the weight and speed of the mid-stage Rockhorn Horse, it was comparable to the impact of a medium-sized truck.

It could be used to make a vehicle-mounted crossbow, with great power!

However, Lin Feng estimated that without a large reserve of fresh water, the normal weight of a first-tier intermediate Rockhorn Horse would be at most about 2.5 tons.

After all, it had just been promoted to the intermediate stage. If it were an old male leader, level-15 or even higher level-16, the weight could reach more than four tons, and the size would be close to the ten-meter level…

Then, even if Lin Feng's team tried their best, they would have absolutely no chance of winning.

But now that the outcome was decided, Lin Feng, as the victor, naturally had to start enjoying this delicious evolved feast.

After cleaning up the level-14 male Rockhorn Horse corpse, Lin Feng returned to the electric car compartment with 800 kilograms of level-13 horse meat.

This kind of high-grade horse meat contains less essence of life, so correspondingly, it has less pollution to the genes. It can be eaten raw directly, which is not only delicious but also accelerates the body's digestion and absorption.

Lin Feng cut ten catties of hind leg meat and gave it to Liu Mingfei, who was gradually recovering.

As soon as it entered his mouth, a fresh and sweet taste bloomed.

He found that his body not only did not have much resistance but also had a strong desire for this fresh horse meat, eagerly wanting to get more.

So, like Lin Feng, he began to eat heartily.

"Don't rush. There is definitely enough of this ordinary evolved horse meat. You should first take care of your body, and then eat a lot later to start subsequent evolution…"

After comforting him, Lin Feng walked out of the electric car and saw Chen Shanshan planning to dissect the second first-tier Rockhorn Horse.

At this time, his stomach was already full. Even if his intestines and stomach were frantically digesting the energy in the horse meat, they could not keep up with Lin Feng's indiscriminate swallowing.

As absorption began, he could faintly feel the energy wandering in his body, accelerating the proliferation and division of evolved cells, replacing most of the remaining strengthened cells.

Although it was not as intense as eating level-11 evolved meat or drinking the essence of evolution, it was also a good experience to accumulate small-level quantitative changes steadily like this.

Lin Feng put away this pile of level-13 horse meat and got up to come to the corpses of the remaining two first-tier female horses, dissecting the horse corpses with Chen Shanshan.

Although evolved meat is full of biological activity, it can be stored for a long time without decay and will not deteriorate for a long time, the bodies of first-tier Rockhorn Horses are not all evolved cells.

Especially the low-level first-tier Rockhorn Horses, some muscles in the body, as well as most of the internal organs, are still strengthened cells, which are easily corroded by bacteria and become rancid.

If it is not cleaned up as soon as possible, it will not affect the evolved meat, but the internal organs will be stinky, especially the intestines and stomach, which are the digestive system.

After a long time, there is also a risk of explosion after fermentation.

Lin Feng can tolerate the smell of blood on his body, but he cannot drill into the abdomen full of the smell of decay.

Fortunately, the size of the first-tier female Rockhorn Horse is not large, only more than two meters high and five meters long, similar to the large rhinoceros in the old Earth period.

In addition, the two of them already had dissection experience, and their skills increased rapidly, so it only took less than two hours to clean up the corpse of a female Rockhorn Horse.

Evolved meat rich in the essence of life, ordinary horse meat, useless internal organs, six photovoltaic rock armors, and a pair of horse horns removed from the horse's skull.

After doing everything, Lin Feng's stomach grumbled.

He hurriedly ran into the city ruins near the camp, found a dilapidated prehistoric toilet, took off his pants, and began to excrete the useless residue after digestion.

The wasteland residents struggling to survive on the wasteland may not be able to excrete for a week, and sometimes they will hold back even if they have the urge to excrete.

One is to increase the feeling of fullness, and the other is that in addition to three-quarters of the water, there are actually a lot of undigested nutrients in the stool, which can be repeatedly absorbed.

Although toxins in the feces will also be inhaled during the secondary digestion and absorption, affecting the physical condition, for the wasteland residents struggling on the line of life and death…

Eating feces is better than starving to death.

As for urine, there is even less of it. Even if there is any, it will be immediately put into a bottle and re-drunk after filtering the urea through a simple filter made by oneself.

And most of the water drunk by the wasteland residents, including the permanent residents of the Fifth Village, evaporates from the pores with sweat.

So, Lao Huang's bus hotel, the urinal placed in the sundries compartment, seems that not many people have used it.

Lin Feng had excreted several times before, all taking advantage of the opportunity to go to the Hunter Wastelander Guild to handle affairs, and solved it in the toilet with comfortable air conditioning.

This time, he ate more than ten catties of fresh meat in one breath, not only filling his stomach but also filling his intestines with level-13 horse meat. After digestion and absorption, Lin Feng excreted a full four catties of feces.

It was still dry and hard after absorbing the water.

The intestines and stomach, as the first batch of tissues and organs to complete the replacement of evolved cells, can help Lin Feng fully digest.

The abundant water in the fresh horse meat was naturally absorbed into his body.

After excreting the non-nutritious waste, Lin Feng covered the feces with dirt and mud.

Although there were no other predators nearby except his team, it was still wise to be careful.

Feces and urine, like paw prints and footprints, are markers that expose one's whereabouts.

Back in the camp, Chen Shanshan had already eaten several catties of horse leg meat and was preparing to dissect and process the second female Rockhorn Horse corpse.

Lin Feng touched his empty stomach.

His strength has been increased to more than 1.5 tons. Lin Feng estimated that he could break through the level-10 limit and evolve to level-11 after eating another meal.

After another hearty meal, Lin Feng followed Chen Shanshan to finish processing the last Rank 1 Rockhorn Horse.

Time flew by.

The group of four next door—Ding Yi, Liu Qian, and the others—were exhausted, panting as they returned to the electric vehicle, drinking water, eating meat, turning on the electric fan, and closing their eyes to rest.

They had to deal with seventeen late-stage Rockhorn Horse corpses, and after five hours of exposure to the sun, they finally dissected and processed ten of them.

On average, they finished one horse every two hours.

This could already be considered incredibly fast.

But the price was the rapid depletion of their physical strength.

After Lin Feng finished his side, he collected two portions of Level 10 and Level 11 evolution meat, and over a hundred kilograms of horse heart and tenderloin.

The remaining ordinary Level 9 or Level 10 horse meat added up to more than a ton.

Looking at the horse meat piled up on the plastic sheet on the ground, Lin Feng wiped the blood from his face and head, feeling somewhat emotional.

This kind of work was truly inhuman; it was simply too tiring.

Moreover, higher-level blood or cells, when in contact with the skin, would cause a burning sensation.

These evolved cells would invade the skin, attacking the human cells on the surface, and fighting against the body's immune system.

Killing one Rockhorn Horse was exciting, killing five was a bit numb, but killing twenty was painful.

Fortunately, all the hard work paid off.

After Lin Feng ate a full ten kilograms of Level 13 horse meat and relieved himself twice, he completed the energy absorption and successfully evolved to Level 11:

"Lin Feng, lv11/19"

"Health: 70, Constitution: 70, Spirit: 69; lv11 attribute cap: 70"

"Superpower Awakening: Branding Power"

"Item upgrade limit increased to lv11!"

"Can consume 5 Health to perform cross-tier upgrade on the lv10 Burst Rifle"

"Current lv10 Burst Rifle optional enhancement directions:

Range, Magazine Size, Rate of Fire, Bullet Power"

"Note: The special enhancement of Branding does not affect the basic improvement of other basic attributes."

Continuing to evolve after becoming an evolver wasn't as intense and painful as the cross-tier promotion from Level 9 enhanced human to evolver.

It was just an accumulation of quantitative change, so Lin Feng neither fainted nor felt the pain of flesh tearing apart. After digesting a large amount of Level 13 evolution meat,

at a certain moment, his body felt like a bottle cap being pried open,

with a 'pop,' breaking through the limit of power.

At this moment, Lin Feng, feeling refreshed, looked at the panel notification in the corner of his eye, thought for a moment, and chose the special enhancement of bullet power to ensure that he could quickly kill Rank 1 Rockhorn Horses in the future.

The effect of the Burst rounds was very good.

So he would make it even better!

As a portion of energy was drawn from his body and entered the Burst Rifle at his waist…

Lin Feng continued to eat Level 13 horse meat while extracting the life essence from a pile of still twitching and throbbing evolution meat.

Chen Shanshan also successfully completed her evolution. After eating some horse meat, she began to help the four women process the remaining horse corpses.

After more than ten hours.

Time hurried from the day and night of the second day of departure to the morning of the third day.

In the past ten hours, Lin Feng ate hundreds of kilograms of Level 13 horse meat in one go, evolving to Level 13.

From Level 10 to Level 11, he only needed to eat ten kilograms of fresh horse meat. From Level 11 to Level 12, Lin Feng spent six or seven hours eating fifty kilograms to complete the evolution.

The improvement effect that Level 13 horse meat could bring gradually decreased as Lin Feng's evolution level increased, and the marginal benefits became lower and lower.

Until the end, in order to evolve to Level 13…

Lin Feng almost ate and relieved himself simultaneously, spending more than ten hours eating nearly three hundred pounds of Level 13 horse meat, finally completing the final accumulation.

Possessing more than three tons of ultimate strength!

Breaking through to become a Level 13 evolver!

For this moment, his digestive system almost doubled in size, and the evolved cells that constituted it also proliferated and iterated more than ten times.

Becoming an efficient digestion and absorption machine.

However, in the eyes of other members of the team…

Throughout the day and night, the captain went to the toilet almost every one or two hours, and the urban ruins near the camp became a minefield full of feces traps.

Several women looked at each other strangely, discussing in private.

Evaluating the captain as becoming a feces-making machine…

Thinking about the amount of feces that would be left behind, Ding Yi, who was searching for poisonous insects in the ruins of the city, became thoughtful.

In the resource-poor wasteland, even this feces was a valuable resource.

It could be used for many things.

As for Lin Feng, whose legs were numb, he didn't expect that one day, he would be so exhausted from defecating that he almost couldn't stand up.

Fortunately, all the hard work was worth it!

The strength of Level 13 was much stronger than that of Level 10 a day ago. Although there was no qualitative leap as a whole, the difference was particularly obvious in the ultimate burst state.

The accumulation of Level 13 evolvers was profound, far from what Level 10 could compare to.

One was a tall building with a solid foundation, and the other was a building block that was raised in place. Although they stood at the same height and saw the same distance, the difference in actual combat was particularly obvious.

Lin Feng looked at the attribute data appearing in the corner of his eye, feeling very happy:

"Lin Feng, lv13/19"

"Health: 90, Constitution: 90, Spirit: 89; lv13 attribute cap: 90"

"Superpower Awakening: Branding Power"

"Item upgrade limit increased to lv13!"

"Can consume 5 Health to perform cross-tier upgrade on the lv11 Burst Rifle"

The attribute value of ninety points was nearly twice that of Level 10 evolution, and the basic levels of the two were very different.

At this moment, Lin Feng even had the confidence to wear his armor and be fully armed, to have a contest of strength with a Level 14 male Rockhorn Horse leader.

After consuming five health points to upgrade the Burst Rifle, Lin Feng opened the clean box next to him.

Inside were a mid-stage life essence and three early-stage life essences extracted from the evolution meat of two Rank 1 female Rockhorn Horses…

Taking out the Level 14 evolution serum rich in life essence, Lin Feng's eyes lit up.

The light white liquid showed bright, crystal-like flocculent matter, and he could feel a strong active energy flowing within.

As long as he drank it, he could achieve mid-stage evolution!

However, Lin Feng planned to rest for a while and wait for his body to adapt to the Level 13 evolution and reach its peak state before making the leap from early to mid-stage.

After all, the health points consumed by upgrading the Burst Rifle still needed to be recovered by continuing to eat Level 13 horse meat.

Carefully putting away the mid-stage evolution essence, next was the problem of how to distribute the three early-stage evolution essences!

For a moment, Lin Feng could feel…

several fiery gazes in the electric vehicle staring at him.

And at the precious evolution essence in his hand!

When conditions are ripe, upgrade when you should!
