Wasteland: My items are infinitely upgraded.

Chapter 143: Brand Upgraded Again, Second Stage Evolver Lin Feng

This time, the scene of the superpower awakening trial is more realistic, and many details are reproduced vividly.

It perfectly recreated the scene that had left the most profound impression on Lin Feng's mind recently:

The battle scene between Bai Ye, the leader of the Salvation Army, and the third-level distortion king!

However, at this moment, in the third level of the underground ruins, Bai Ye and the main force of the Salvation Army were not there, only Lin Feng was left.

And the dim sunlight shining from the entrance of the third floor below ground brings a ray of light to this shelter that never sees the sun.

Lin Feng frowned slightly. Even before he took the Level 20 Pure Life Essence, he had imagined that the trial challenge of awakening superpowers would be like this...

But he didn't expect that he would have to face a third-order distortion king alone!
No help or breathing space!
You have to know that in the last trial, although he was facing a whole group of rock horn beetles, they were at least first-stage early-stage rock horn beetles, and their strength was only one or two levels higher than Lin Feng.

Even though there is only one enemy now, it is a third-level king aberration!

Strictly speaking, this is a terrifying existence that has reached level 30, while Lin Feng, who has not yet completed the cross-level evolution, is just a weak level 19 evolver.

In front of the third-level distortion king, he was no different from a larger ant.

Lin Feng took a deep breath and calmed himself down.

Consider the situation before the trial challenge begins.

The scene constructed in this simulation, although real, is not realistic. For example, the light inside the ruins is brighter than in reality, and the distorted bacteria and viruses that are everywhere in the air do not exist.

In his hands, he only had the two level 19 weapons he had brought with him when he evolved, the armor-piercing cannon and the rapid-fire cannon.

Without wearing sealed armor, it is more convenient to move around.

According to the experience of the previous trials, the solution to the problem lies in these two branded weapons. The armor-piercing cannon among them has also successfully ended the third-order aberration in reality.

This means that Lin Feng still has the possibility of killing the opponent!
But at that time, the situation was that he relied on the containment and cover of Bai Ye, a 29th level evolver in the late stage of the second stage, to help Lin Feng attract firepower and at the same time expose the flaws of the third stage aberration.
I just seized the opportunity to output.

Now fighting alone, the first thing Lin Feng has to solve is not how to kill the opponent and complete the trial challenge, but how to escape the pursuit of the deformed monster!

As the trial scene gradually builds and improves...

When the third-order distortion king not far away opened his cloudy eyes...

The battle begins immediately!
After feeling that he could move, Lin Feng raised his gun and pulled the trigger without hesitation.

After the last awakening trial, his marksmanship skills have been greatly improved through repeated refreshes and hammering.

Now he is dealing with a third-order aberration alone, and his reaction is also quick and decisive.

The armor-piercing muzzle quickly fired a series of shells.

An armor-piercing cannon with a damage of 160 is enough to cause serious damage to the unarmored flesh and blood body of the mutant.

However, this third-order deformer has a movement speed of two hundred meters per second, and its reaction ability is several times faster than Lin Feng's.

Although the initial velocity of the shell reaches over a thousand meters, for the third-order aberration, it can sense the shooting trajectory of the armor-piercing gun and avoid being directly hit, easily avoiding the central damage area.

As for the spreading shock wave and shrapnel damage, it has little impact on a third-order aberration.

It only takes a few breaths to heal itself.

In reality, Lin Feng's sniper attack was successful only because he caught the opponent off guard. The third-level mutant was concentrating on dealing with Bai Ye and trying to avoid her bomb thermos, and did not pay any attention to the danger coming from a distance.

Now in a one-on-one fight, he perfectly avoided Lin Feng's attacks while fleeing by jumping left and right repeatedly.

In fact, Lin Feng also knew this.

He couldn't succeed as easily as last time.

The reason for continuing to launch is to figure out the behavior pattern of this third-order deformed body.

Then use the rules and habits to seize the opportunity and strike again to kill the enemy.

But the whole process is time-consuming.

It's also quite life-threatening.

In reality, with Bai Ye's restraint, Lin Feng can easily get a longer time for observation and preparation. Now in the trial of superpowers, he can only accumulate the required experience by refreshing and resurrecting.

So the result was that Lin Feng was killed by the third-level mutant chasing him before he ran three hundred meters.

When he restarted, he was about two hundred meters away from the mutant. If it weren't for the armor-piercing cannon, Lin Feng would have been caught up by the mutant in just two seconds at his maximum speed of one hundred meters per second.

But if an armor-piercing cannon is used, in order to avoid the impact of the shells, the third-order deformer will jump left and right, and its speed will be reduced to 100 meters per second.

While Lin Feng was retreating and running away while looking back, his speed would be reduced by half, but he would survive longer.

As long as the speed of both sides decreases synchronously, the initial distance of 200 meters will become more and more important, and will also allow Lin Feng to survive longer.

The simple pursuit problem allowed Lin Feng to live for more than four seconds, instead of dying in two seconds.

As time went on, Lin Feng paid more and more attention to aiming and striking, causing the third-order aberration to expend more energy to dodge the continuous shells. In the end, the death within a few seconds was reduced to surviving for half a minute, and even more than a minute...

During this period, Lin Feng not only learned to hold the gun with both hands, but also practiced the coordinated gun fighting techniques of both guns.

For example, use armor-piercing cannons to carry out focused strikes, and then insert low-powered rapid-fire cannons to supplement the damage. This is equivalent to a feint, forcing the aberrations to continue to dodge.

This is a combination of truth and falsehood, reality and illusion.

By utilizing the powerful killing properties of armor-piercing guns, rapid-fire guns that originally have a high rate of fire and low damage can also produce an efficient intimidating effect.

But as the number of death restarts increased, Lin Feng also discovered a problem.

Although the rapid-fire cannon can deceive the third-order aberration, whenever its status drops to a certain level and it is about to be killed by Lin Feng's armor-piercing cannon...

This deformed king seemed to have gone berserk, his condition instantly reaching its maximum. Under the fire, he charged straight towards Lin Feng and died together with him.

During this period, the rapid-fire cannon was no longer useful. Even if it fired ten rounds per second continuously, it could not repel the aberrations.

Although armor-piercing guns have extremely high damage, they lack the corresponding sustained firepower suppression.

Because of the recoil caused by its powerful power, the armor-piercing gun cannot fire quickly. Even with the boost of firepower coverage, it cannot be easily controlled with one hand like an armor-piercing gun with low recoil.

The fire coverage is six rounds per second, which means that the target is locked and the shots are fired accurately at one point.

But if the target is prepared, it will avoid the first shell before it lands.

If you want to move the muzzle later to follow the target, it is not as convenient as a rapid-fire cannon.

The firepower coverage attribute can only last for five seconds before entering a cooling phase. The subsequent firing rate is at most one shot per second, which is completely unable to suppress the Aberrant's fearlessness.

Due to the emergence of this problem, no matter how Lin Feng delays being caught, he cannot survive the final mutual destruction of the mutants.

During this period, he also thought about using the power of the brand and consuming his own first-level evolution level to obtain a level 20 armor-piercing cannon or a rapid-fire cannon.

However, they are unable to effectively make up for their respective shortcomings to deal with the suicide attack of the third-order distortion king.

Moreover, this trial challenge is very different from the last first-level evolution.

The original intention was to survive the charge of the rock hornbear herd, open the door and escape, so as long as Lin Feng did not take the initiative to provoke the rock hornbear herd, he would be safe.

Therefore, you can safely consume the first level of evolution to forcibly upgrade the branded item.

Now facing the relentless pursuit of the third-order distortion king, if Lin Feng relaxes even a little, he will be torn to pieces.

Moreover, after consuming his own first level of evolution, he reached the eighteenth level of evolution, and his physical condition declined, making it even more difficult to escape the pursuit.

Faced with repeated deaths and an unsolvable situation, Lin Feng forced himself to calm down and carefully think about the real purpose of this trial challenge.

As a trial for awakening superpowers, its purpose is naturally to enhance the effectiveness and strength of superpowers.

However, Lin Feng is not a firearms expert...

The power of branding is one's foundation.

If you want to break the deadlock, you must start with the power of the brand and use the brand to find new solutions.

While Lin Feng was dodging the attack of the mutant, his thoughts began to brainstorm.

Since simply increasing the item level can't defeat enemies who are much stronger than me...

Is it possible to combine the different attributes of the two branded weapons at the critical moment?

For example, an armor-piercing gun could have the stability and high rate of fire of a rapid-fire gun, or a rapid-fire gun could also fire extremely powerful armor-piercing shells.

As soon as this thought came to mind, Lin Feng suddenly had a sudden enlightenment.

A reminder immediately appeared before my eyes:
"The power of the brand has awakened once again!"

"Do you want to consume ten health points to temporarily assemble and synthesize branded weapons and equipment of the same level?"

"Note: This ability only works on branded items, and can be either temporary or permanent. Temporary branding lasts ten minutes; choosing permanent branding will overdraw a correspondingly high amount of health, causing your evolution level to drop continuously."

Seeing the new changes in the power of the brand, Lin Feng's mouth corners suddenly rose slightly.

He immediately consumed ten health points and assembled and merged the branded weapons, the armor-piercing cannon and the rapid-fire cannon in his hand.

Soon, a powerful new synthetic weapon appeared in his hand, which has the advantages of both original weapons:

"Rapid-fire armor-piercing cannon level 24, orange quality, branded"

"Basic Attributes: Damage 400, Effective Range 5km, Damage Coverage 20m, Remaining Tungsten Core Armor-Piercing 4000; Temporary Synthesis, Duration Minutes"

「额外属性：备弹回复1/1s；空间弹匣4000枚；范围杀伤(覆盖半径20米，中心5米伤害400)；极速追击(切换为自动模式，每秒十发)，穿甲炮弹(穿甲能力提升100%，伤害+10)」

"Note: After ten minutes, the temporary assembly synthesis effect will be lifted and it will regress back to level 19 rapid-fire cannon and level 19 armor-piercing cannon."

Looking at the powerful newly synthesized weapon in his hand, Lin Feng's heart was shaken, but he did not forget the danger that was coming. He immediately raised the muzzle and aimed it at the flying aberration. The entire new cannon was over two meters long, like a Vulcan Gatling gun, and the muzzle could fit a whole fist.

One after another, powerful armor-piercing shells flew straight towards the third-order distortion king who was about to kill them.

The next moment, the fist-sized armor-piercing cannon exploded instantly after entering the body of the Deformed King, directly blowing the two-meter-wide thick chest of this third-level deformed body into pieces.

But before the mutant could react, the next armor-piercing shell followed and hit its head accurately.

There was a loud bang.

The half-meter-long head shattered into pieces!
The third-order aberration died completely.

At this moment, Lin Feng was knocked to the ground by the powerful recoil.

The power of the twenty-fourth-level rapid-fire armor-piercing cannon is far beyond what the nineteenth-level Lin Feng can control for a long time.

It’s equivalent to a five-level upgrade!

Through assembly and synthesis, Lin Feng successfully used the level 24 branded synthetic weapon to kill the third-level distortion king.

As the corpses completely lost their vitality under the continuous bombardment of artillery fire, after the smoke cleared, a black door appeared on the ruins.

Lin Feng took a deep breath, holding the huge cannon in his hand, and slowly walked into the black door, leaving the gradually collapsing trial space, allowing his self-consciousness to return to his body in the real world.

…………

When Lin Feng opened his eyes again, he found that he was wrapped in several bandages and the entire seat cushion was soaked with sweat.

Chen Shanshan was looking at him nervously.

Seeing Lin Feng wake up, she breathed a sigh of relief and loosened the titanium gun in her hand.

When Lin Feng was evolving across levels, the intensity of his struggles was several times greater than when he was evolving into a single level. Even the ordinary bandages that bound his hands and feet were nearly broken by his terrifying force of nearly ten tons.

Chen Shanshan quickly found several thicker bandages, wrapped them around Lin Feng several times, and tightened them tightly.

This stopped him from getting up and wreaking havoc everywhere.

When it was most intense, veins all over his body stood out.

Not only was his face extremely hideous, but his body was also bent like a shrimp, and he was in extreme pain.

At that time, Lin Feng was being tortured beyond recognition by the third-level deformer. He died more than ten times in a row, and each time he experienced the extreme pain of his body being torn to pieces and chopped into pieces alive.

Fortunately, he finally awakened and the assembled and synthesized brand improved its effect. Otherwise, facing such a predicament, even if Lin Feng was conscious and had a physical body, he would be exhausted to death by the challenge of this trial.

Seeing Lin Feng wake up at this moment, Chen Shanshan asked with a slightly nervous trembling voice:
"Are you… okay?"

Lin Feng came back to his senses, smiled and nodded:
"It's over. The second stage evolution is indeed worthy of its reputation."

Chen Shanshan swallowed her saliva:

"Is the challenge of the trial of awakening superpowers difficult?"

"Could it be... the third-level distortion king in the ruins?!"

Lin Feng looked at the reminder of the plan that appeared in the corner of his eye and nodded:

"Lin Feng, lv20/29"

「生命值：200，体质：200，精神：199；lv20各属性上限200」

"Super Power Awakening: The Power of Brand"

"Power of Brand: Brand an item, turning it into exclusive equipment with a specific enhancement direction. Consume your own level of evolution to forcibly upgrade an item that has reached its upper limit to the next level. The speed of branded equipment enhancement and upgrades is greatly increased."

"Second awakening of the power of branding: assembly synthesis (you can assemble and synthesize items of different levels, consuming ten health points to obtain temporary synthesis equipment; permanent synthesis, overdrawing different health points according to the item level)"

"Power of Branding: Exclusive Equipment; Forced Upgrade; Assembly and Synthesis; Accelerated Upgrade"

"Item upgrade limit increased to level 20!"

"You can consume 10 health points to upgrade the lv19 machine gun, lv19 rapid-fire cannon, and lv19 source filter."

After looking at the level 20 attribute status, Lin Feng took a deep breath...

This time the basic attributes were directly increased by fifty points!
No wonder the second-level strongman is so strong.

Lin Feng immediately clenched his fist and felt it.

Infinite power immediately surged out from his whole body, and the bandages tied around his body immediately creaked, and were on the verge of breaking at any time.

You know, these thick woven cloth belts can lift tons of materials!

Lin Feng, who had just achieved cross-level evolution, now possessed a basic strength of ten tons and could burst out an extreme strength of nearly twenty tons!
A punch is like a head-on collision with a heavy truck. Even if you are wearing high-grade titanium alloy armor, one punch can cause the armor surface to be twisted and dented.

No first-level evolver can withstand the terrifying power of a punch!
No wonder high-level evolvers rarely carry weapons with them, because their second-level bodies are themselves the most powerful killing machines!
He had only transformed a portion of the level 20 evolutionary cells, and had not yet truly evolved into systemic level 2 cells, but he already possessed such strength!

Those mid- and late-stage second-stage evolvers...

Just how powerful is it?!

Human tanks are no longer enough to describe them.

With full output, it can easily destroy an entire town or an army of tens of thousands of people!
Wearing power armor, the speed can easily exceed 100 meters per second, even close to the speed of sound. I'm afraid that missiles or large bombs, combined with infrared tracking, will be necessary to have a chance to severely damage the second-level evolver.

It is no wonder that in the old Earth period, after the human evolution trend began, the political power was quickly taken over by the evolvers.

At the same time, the main force to fight against the mutant beast tide disaster in the later period gradually changed from the original traditional heavy firepower army to a team composed of evolvers.

The strength and performance of the second-level evolvers have exceeded human cognition.

Except for not having special abilities such as Cyclops and the ability to fly, their physical strength is comparable to that of Superman in film and television works.

Judging from the battle between Bai Ye, who was in the late second stage and at level 29, and the third stage aberration, Bai Ye, who would be promoted to the third stage king in the future, would be almost like Superman.

As long as she continues to release extra space, the sufficient buoyancy generated by the vacuum will allow her to fly at will.

By then, she will also research more offensive methods derived from spatial abilities, making the enemy nervous and unable to defend themselves.

But Lin Feng is not weak either.

Now the power of the brand has been upgraded again, with new derivative capabilities of assembly and synthesis, and a temporary duration of ten minutes, which is completely sufficient in battle.

The stronger the strength, the shorter the battle process.

When both sides are evenly matched, a single flaw or slight advantage on the part of one side can determine life or death.

Within ten minutes, one can possess a powerful branded weapon five levels higher than one's own evolutionary level...

Equivalent to the combat power of the middle stage of the second stage!
With the help of assembly and synthesis, Lin Feng felt that if he met a third-order distortion king again, he could easily defeat this flesh and blood body without armor.

Just combine them into a wave and cover them with firepower.

Use a synthetic weapon comparable to a 122mm howitzer to clear the interior of the ruins.

No matter whether it's a wave of first- and second-order distorted monsters or a third-order distorted king, we can take them all down with hundreds or thousands of rapid-fire armor-piercing cannons!
What Lin Feng is worried about now is not the lack of firepower, but whether each level of shelter inside the ruins can withstand such a strong impact.

Don't let the shelter collapse.

After experiencing the changes after the upgrade, Chen Shanshan immediately untied Lin Feng. Although he could break free by himself, the bandage had to be kept until next time when other members of the team evolved to a higher level.

After being untied, Lin Feng stood up from the wet cushion, and his stomach began to growl.

A feeling of empty hunger came over me.

Lin Feng then took the eighteenth-level evolution meat that had been prepared long ago from Chen Shanshan and ate three pieces in one breath, a total of three kilograms, which relieved the hunger in his stomach.

At the same time, he picked up the two branded weapons beside him, ate the evolution meat, consumed ten health points, and upgraded them one by one.

When he stepped out of the chariot, Lin Feng suddenly found that he seemed to have grown a little taller. The door that was originally two meters long could now be touched by his short hair.

Not counting the thickness of the soles of his combat boots, Lin Feng's height grew from 1.88 meters at the beginning to about 1.95 meters.

In less than a month, it grew seven centimeters.

Along with the improvement of bone strength after the upgrade, the body's muscle mass also increases dramatically.

Lin Feng thought of Father Su An, who was also a second-level evolutionary, and he was a two-meter-tall man. The bishop looked old and thin, but his frame was also big...

There was also Governor Han Tao, whom I met by chance on the second floor of the Shangmin District cafeteria. None of these male second-level evolvers were thin.

It seems that as it continues to evolve, its size will continue to increase to meet the continuous improvement of its strength.

Compared with them, Bai Ye, with her plump and slender figure, does look a little special.

This is probably why she is not good at hand-to-hand combat.

The growth in strength is more in the spiritual or supernatural aspects.

At this moment, with Lin Feng's appearance, he immediately attracted a lot of attention in the camp.

Second-level evolvers are not uncommon.

But this was also the first time that everyone had encountered this, and the people around them had just been promoted to second-level strongmen.

And it was the gifted Lin Feng.

They all want to know now, now Lin Feng...

How powerful is it?
