Wasteland: My items are infinitely upgraded

"To You, the Future Generation", "A thousand or ten thousand years from now", "New Humans or a New Earth Civilization", "We were once the masters of this place, the first group of wastelands survivors to leave the shelters, recording our experiences here to warn you who come after."

"The Wandering Earth Project went awry. It should have been docked in the orbit of Proxima Centauri, but now it is surrounded by three suns. The high-temperature environment on the surface has eliminated more than 90% of the species. The original ecological restoration plan ended in failure."

"I, along with Liu and Yang, led the remaining survivors from the shelter to begin a life of survival on the desolate surface."

"Initially, casualties were severe until we discovered mutated wildebeests. By following them, we found migration points encircling the globe, each capable of providing timely water replenishment."

"Old Yang recorded the landmarks on the map to facilitate subsequent resupply along the way."

The first passage ends here, as it's very easy to find next to the words 'Laoshan'.

Lin Feng looked around and quickly found another inscribed record:

"It took us a full six years to return to the starting point."

"The three suns evaporated 99% of the global ice layer, making it difficult to find water sources on the surface. Fortunately, the bay's topographical structure can accumulate water vapor from the air, connecting to the underground water within the riverbed."

"Those members who initially chose to stay in the shelter all died without exception after entering the scorching sun exposure zone."

"Their corpses were reduced to charred remains, completely incinerated, yet there was no trace of burning inside the shelter."

"These are the first new lives in the new world."

"Old Liu told me that the direct sunlight point of the three suns is always on the southern equator, and the speed of movement remains constant. The further north you go, the more the daily journey near the Arctic Circle can be reduced by more than half, and it's not as hot."

"I said that less distance means fewer resources."

"Going south towards the equator is too hot. The team is currently just north of the Tropic of Cancer, which is just right. When we become stronger in the future, we will explore the equator and the Arctic to find the planetary engines built there."

"Something must have gone wrong there, causing Earth to stop in the middle of three stars."

"Old Liu nodded and said that he had once wanted to write a science fiction novel about the Trisolaran system, but he never expected that one day he would be in it."

"I said that perhaps dehydration is needed to adapt to the high-temperature exposure in the forbidden zone, but unfortunately, with the current level of human technology, even the most basic experiments cannot be carried out."

"When approaching the Scorching Sun Forbidden Zone, someone came to climb the mountain to look out and observe the changes in the forbidden zone, but their brain partially spontaneously combusted."

"Our initial speculation was correct."

"See you in another six years."

Seeing the experiences of the first generation of explorers on the wasteland thousands of years ago, Lin Feng felt heavy. He always felt that something was watching him from behind.

If there really was something, it could only be the approaching large sun, also the creator of the Scorching Sun Forbidden Zone.

Taking a deep breath to calm himself, Lin Feng continued to search for the relics of his predecessors near the piles of rocks on the mountaintop.

Soon, he found the last two inscribed pieces on another pile of rocks. Compared to the previous inscriptions, which were already slightly blurred, these two had deeper and more powerful engravings.

This indicates that the person who carved the inscriptions had great strength and significantly improved power, enabling them to easily carve written records on the hard rocks:

"I never thought that upon returning again, thirty years had passed."

"Over the years, we have opened up multiple safe global sea lanes, marked hundreds of water replenishment points, and the team has continued to grow through exploration of city ruins and shelter remains."

"Forming a large convoy of over ten thousand people."

"After solving the problem of food and clothing, a large amount of productivity can be liberated for the restoration of civilization."

"However, modern industry requires population and a stable environment."

"Weary of migration, we can only bring as many needed supplies as possible during collection, making it difficult to settle down."

"After discussing and conceiving with Old Yang, I decided to establish a mobile nation on land, but this requires extremely high energy supply. Currently, the only known thing that can propel hundreds of millions of tons of buildings to sail on dry land is the planetary engine that was originally built."

"Fortunately, Old Liu was a senior engineer and participated in the specific design and construction plan of the engine, knowing that additional heavy nuclear fusion devices were built underground in some important cities to ensure the operation of the shelter for thousands of years."

"And this will become the new starting point for human civilization."

After reading these, Lin Feng took a deep breath. Perhaps the oasis warships, similar to Oasis Town, use the power devices left over from the Old Earth period.

Then, the large mobile city groups further ahead must rely on planetary engines to provide the forward thrust.

Only in this way can it be explained that hundreds of millions of tons of steel castles can stably travel on the wasteland.

But right now, what Lin Feng wants to know more is the secret about the Scorching Sun Forbidden Zone behind him.

He has a feeling that the strange curse existing in the Scorching Sun Forbidden Zone is the key to solving the three-sun predicament.

Below these marks, the last few lines of text are also carved, which are also the last inscribed records here:

"Wasteland Era Year 50, Three Hundred Years Later,"

"Old Liu and I returned to the initial starting point, while Old Yang has become the city lord of Hope City, gradually drifting away from us."

"Old Liu has been studying the spontaneous combustion curse of the Scorching Sun Forbidden Zone and has initially analyzed that it is related to a certain special energy, like a microwave oven heating, which ignites the spiritual power in the brains of higher life forms."

"Therefore, advanced life cannot survive the Scorching Sun Forbidden Zone unless they undergo surgical modification to remove part of the brain."

"However, plant seeds and lower arthropods can safely withstand the scorching of the mysterious energy."

"This may be a curse on higher life."

"Or perhaps we are just a flock of sheep, driven forward by the forbidden zone, just like grazing."

"Old Liu said that this planet is expanding. Now the equator is more than 40,000 kilometers. Our location is the original length of the equator, and the drastic movement of crustal plates has made most of the former underground shelters disappear."

"We have only excavated less than 5% of the shelters. The remaining small and medium-sized ones are not in the originally recorded locations. Perhaps one day in the future, they will reappear in the world, bringing the hibernating survivors to the present world."

"Old Liu said that his daughter and wife are still in the Taishan shelter behind Laoshan, so he comes every year, but the hope is slim."

"Wasteland Era Year 100, Six Hundred Years Later"

"This water replenishment point has completely dried up, meaning we need to delete this marked point."

"Old Liu is unwilling to do so. He hopes that one day when his wife and daughter wake up, they can be rescued by the passing team instead of facing the harsh wasteland and painfully departing."

I promised him that I would come every wasteland year, but he knew better that after our generation passes, future generations would abolish or forget this custom for various reasons.

So, in this year, he chose to sacrifice himself, integrate into the genes of a mutated beast, erase the structure of his brain, and at the cost of becoming a low-level life form, stay in the Rift Valley Caverns to excavate and dredge the underground river.

Ensuring that this water source can be sustained forever.

Until the shelter appears and is reopened one day.

As one of the few remaining old friends, I wanted to persuade him, but Old Liu was determined.

At the final farewell, he told me that the Scorching Sun Restricted Area might contain an evolutionary path different from that of Earth's life, and that it was also the key to unlocking the curse.

He instructed me to urge Old Yang, as the city lord, to pay close attention to the Scorching Sun Restricted Area at all times.

Once a being adapted to it appears, even if it can only briefly leave the restricted area, it will be a terrible disaster for humans migrating outside the area.

It will release the flames of the scorching sun.

Ignite the tinder of wisdom and incinerate advanced civilizations.

As a latecomer, do not gaze at the Scorching Sun Restricted Area for too long.

The curse follows like a shadow and will be engraved into the brain tissue through the crystalline lens of the eye, becoming kindling."

After reading these descriptions, Lin Feng was deeply shocked, standing motionless for a long time.

He couldn't help but feel a wave of fear for his recklessness just now, after all, his eyes already felt a stinging sensation. If he continued to look, he might be assimilated into kindling…

Directly combusting and dying!

And the stone inscription record of thousands of words also ended here, spanning a full six hundred years from the initial first step into this place.

That group of awakened ones used their wisdom and blood to explore migration routes around the globe for future generations.

They also left behind the precious experience before them, reminding those who came later of the true danger of the Scorching Sun Restricted Area.

Previously, Lin Feng never understood why the survivors after waking up did not continue to stay in the shelter, relying on the sunlight exposure time to collect and store enough resources to survive the two-year scorching sun high-temperature zone.

Now it seems that the real danger is not the high temperature of seventy or eighty degrees, or even over a hundred degrees, but the Scorching Sun Restricted Area itself.

The curse exists in the form of energy waves, and the area shrouded by the Scorching Sun Restricted Area is itself a huge electromagnetic oven, and irradiation is the trigger for the combustion curse.

Wanting to survive it is already extremely difficult, and also having to guard against the unknown beings assimilated in the restricted area is simply hellish difficulty.

After digesting the warnings left by the pioneers thousands of years ago, Lin Feng got up and searched the pile of rocks on the top of the mountain inside and out, confirming that there was nothing left out.

Then, he lay in the shade behind a boulder, waiting for the Chieftain-level Rockhorn Horse below to vent its anger and leave.

The Scorching Sun Restricted Area in the distance was constantly approaching.

The temperature on Giant Peak Mountain was also constantly rising.

Lin Feng believed that before long, the Rock Armor Beast would be unable to withstand it before him, give up the chase, and leave this place.

Moreover, it still had to catch up with the Rockhorn Horse herd that had gone far away.

Sure enough, about two or three hours later, the sounds of impact and panting under the mountain disappeared.

After replenishing himself by drinking water and eating meat, Lin Feng had recovered most of his strength, so he got up and walked down the mountain.

Then, on the longevity platform halfway up the mountain, he saw the Rock Armor Beast, which had already left Giant Peak Mountain, chasing after the migrating horse herd a dozen kilometers away.

And there was no trace of the Rock Horse Chariot nearby.

The most ⊥ new ⊥ small ⊥ say ⊥ is ⊥ at ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥ book ⊥ bar ⊥ ⊥ first ⊥ hair!

Lin Feng was relieved and began to descend the mountain.

The slope steps he had climbed up earlier were all destroyed by the furious beast.

This guy was planning to trap Lin Feng on the top of the mountain, eventually being scorched to death by the scorching sun.

However, a drop of a dozen meters and a seventy-degree slope could not stop Lin Feng, who had evolved to the mid-stage of the first stage.

Soon, through climbing, he successfully jumped down.

By the time Lin Feng trotted quickly to the foot of the mountain, the figure of the beast had disappeared into the scenic area.

It was time to reunite with the team members.

Carefully walking out of the Laoshan Scenic Area, Lin Feng stood on a small mountain at the edge, where he could not see the trace of the beast either.

Presumably, it had caught up with the migrating beast herd and left a hundred kilometers away.

Instead, Lin Feng himself was separated from Chen Shanshan and the others, and now he could only return to the river behind the Rift Valley to see if they would stay nearby.

The vast ruins are as large as hundreds of square kilometers, and it is not easy to find each other in them.

Lin Feng walked into the city ruins, heading west all the way.

Before long, he keenly heard a burst of dog barking.

It was the sound of the divine dog.

"I'm here!"

Lin Feng then climbed to a high place in a ruin and waved his hand and shouted loudly.

More than a hundred meters away from him, Ding Yi and Liu Qian, holding the divine dog, also climbed onto the pile of ruins.

The two sides then reunited.

Having eaten and drank enough these days, the divine dog has grown to the size of a rural dog, and its strength has also been upgraded to a level 2 reinforcement.

At this moment, it excitedly surrounded Lin Feng's feet, wagging its tail and twisting its butt.

Ding Yi walked forward slightly excited:

"Thanks to this little guy, his nose is very sensitive."

Lin Feng touched the dog's head and then looked at the two of them:

"Where are the others? Did you catch the prey?"

Liu Qian walked over and said:

"It has been brought back, a total of seven Rockhorn Horses, including two male leaders in the mid-stage of the first stage, four females in the early stage of the first stage, and one male Rockhorn Horse in the early stage of the first stage. My brother successfully captured it alive and has already paralyzed it with venom."

"The chariot camp is at the edge of the bay. Someone needs to keep an eye on the live horse, and A'lian and the others are dealing with the horse carcasses."

"So, I was sent out with Ding Yi to find you."

Lin Feng nodded:

"Let's go, time is running out. After we finish processing, we have to set off as soon as possible and return to Oasis Town."

The three people and one wolf quickly returned to the camp.

Seeing Lin Feng return safely, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and showed happy expressions.

After all, they saw the Rock Armor Beast leave and guessed that Lin Feng had met with misfortune.

However, Lin Feng, who had escaped a disaster, did not relax and feel relieved, but instead put down his backpack without stopping, pulled out his dagger and machete, and helped dissect the horse carcasses.

"There are less than twenty hours left, speed up."

Lin Feng glanced at the time and urged.

Liu Qian then joined the dissection team.

Ding Yi, who was on the side, began to dehydrate the piles of fresh horse meat.

Lin Feng checked them one by one.

Fortunately, among the two mid-stage male leaders, there was one evolved to level fifteen.

It can allow him to level up again.

At this moment, the originally noisy and lively Wild Rift Valley, the migrating beast herd disappeared without a trace.

The wasteland returned to calm.

The hunting season ended.
