Wasteland: My items are infinitely upgraded.

Chapter 145: Deterrence, Hunting Wolves? Level 25 Rapid-Fire Armor-Piercing Cannon

Considering that the power of the synthesized super weapon needs to be tested, Lin Feng plans to take one or two people with him to conduct experiments in the wild.

So naturally, he brought Chen Shanshan, Ding Yi and Liu Qian along. These three were more energetic, while the former was more curious.

After giving a few words to Liu Mingfei and A Lian, Lin Feng and the other two rode on tricycles and prepared to set off with light luggage.

With Zheng Yanying in charge of the camp, there is no need to worry about being attacked. More importantly, Lin Feng has been promoted to a second-level evolver. Now is different from the past. His second-level identity is enough to deter any villain.

Before leaving the Feicheng shelter ruins, Lin Feng rode a tricycle to the entrance of the ruins.

When passing by the camps of the wanderer forces along the way, he directly released his own aura.

The overwhelming pressure instantly swept over the nearby wanderers, some of whom were mid-level first-order evolutionists, and they felt Lin Feng's terrifying strength...

So they all lowered their heads and turned around, not even daring to peek secretly, let alone look directly at Lin Feng.

The power, ruling power and status of the second-level evolver were fully demonstrated at this moment.

Even though Lin Feng had just been promoted to a level 20, second-stage evolver, the significance it represented was much stronger than his previous level 1, late-stage evolution.

After intimidating these scoundrels, Lin Feng's real purpose was actually to meet with the Salvation Army.

When he stepped into the cave again, he could already keenly sense the presence of the second-level evolved people in it, the leader Bai Ye, and the second-in-command Ma Li.

Ma Li's evolutionary level is only at the early second stage, but in terms of the strength of her aura, she is stronger than himself. It is estimated that she is an evolutionary existence at the twenty-first or twenty-second stage.

But Lin Feng was confident that he could easily defeat the opponent with the "gun power" in his hands.

Bai Ye, who was making a thermos bomb in the RV, and Ma Li, who was reinforcing and modifying a heavy truck, also felt something when Lin Feng entered the cave.

So the two of them put down their work, walked out of the camp, and met the second-level evolver Lin Feng.

Bai Ye stopped outside the chariot, looked at Lin Feng who was approaching, and smiled:
"It's much faster than I thought..."

"Congratulations, Mr. Lin, for successfully completing the cross-level evolution and becoming a second-level firearms evolutionist!"

As he spoke, Bai Ye's gaze shifted from Lin Feng's handsome face to the two heavy firearms slung across his waist, which were as powerful as handheld cannons.

Compared with Lin Feng's late first stage, their volume and caliber have increased to a certain extent.

Damage and firepower will definitely be greatly improved!

Lin Feng did not hide anything. Now was the time to show his strength. He immediately raised the level 20 high-explosive rapid-fire cannon at his waist and said with a hint of pride:

"It's okay, mainly because my abilities have changed a lot."

"The lethality has increased by at least half now. I need to go out and verify the specific damage and firepower, so the mission on the negative fourth floor will need to be postponed."

"If I were to encounter a third-order distortion king again, I could easily kill him by myself."

In addition to demonstrating his own strength, Lin Feng also wants to test the other party's attitude. Postponing the next action is a way to gain the right to speak.

This means that future task arrangements will no longer be under the full command of Bai Ye, and he will need to inquire about and respect Lin Feng's opinions. Otherwise, he will be doing a job without putting in any effort, which is what civil engineers are best at.

Bai Ye nodded and turned to ask about the previous outing:

"To test the power of firearms, why not try it directly inside the ruins? There are still many second-order aberrations in the negative third floor, and the negative fourth floor also needs to intimidate and drive them away."

Lin Feng shrugged, shook the rapid-fire cannon in his hand, the muzzle of which was thicker than the mouth of a cup, and said helplessly:
"The main reason is that the power has increased too much. It's even more powerful than the one that killed the third-level distortion king before. I'm worried that it will collapse the floors of the shelter."

"Although it was built to the highest standards, thousands of years have passed. If it hadn't been preserved underground, it would have collapsed long ago."

"So, to be on the safe side, I'm going to try it out in the wild first. Don't be too surprised when you hear the sound of gunfire."

Although he felt that Lin Feng's words were a bit pretentious and deserved a beating, Bai Ye still agreed with a smile:
"No problem. Anyway, that third-order aberration has already been dealt with on the negative third floor, which greatly shortens the expected progress. We'll start the operation on the fourth day of the countdown. We have a full night, and you can rest well after completing the experiment."

"If you want to rest a little longer, you can postpone it until 2 a.m.."

The original plan was to clean up the third floor from three in the afternoon to twelve at midnight, a full nine hours. However, only an hour later, Lin Feng cooperated with Bai Ye to directly solve the serious problem of the third-order deformer.

Afterwards, the rest of the deformed monsters also scattered.

It didn't take much effort to reach the negative third floor, and they were able to do so safely. At around four o'clock in the afternoon, everyone exited the ruins and returned to the surface.

After a conversation, Lin Feng started evolving at five o'clock and it took him three hours to complete the cross-level evolution.

Because of the pure evolution by absorbing pure source material, the burden on the body is not great.

This is also why Bai Ye was a little surprised.

It is only eight o'clock in the morning, and there are still four hours until twelve o'clock. If it is postponed to two o'clock in the morning, it will be six hours, which is enough for Lin Feng and his friends to go out and come back and rest for a while.

Lin Feng nodded and prepared to leave.

Bai Ye never forgets to remind:
"Don't go to the foot of Mount Tai in the southeast. There are still a large number of wasteland wolves in the Fallen Wolf Valley. If you provoke a second-level tribe leader-level wasteland wolf, it will easily attract revenge from the wolf pack."

Lin Feng thought of the divine dog still in the transport vehicle, and Su Yueyue who was accompanying him. The latter had absorbed the genes of the steppe wolf, and could be considered half of the steppe wolf's evolutionary path...

Both of them have inextricable ties with the wild wolf pack in Meteoric Wolf Valley.

Perhaps after this mission is over, I can imitate what I did in the Wild Rift Valley and make a big move. I can collect enough fresh wasteland wolf evolution meat, extract the corresponding life essence, help the divine dog achieve cross-level evolution, and at the same time delay the outbreak of Su Yueyue's curse so that it can thrive.

In the past, he was only in the late first stage, so Lin Feng naturally didn’t even dare to think about this idea.

After all, any chief-level wasteland wolf can lead the pack to defeat the entire team.

But now that he has been promoted to a second-level evolver, Lin Feng's strength has undergone a qualitative improvement, especially the derivative changes of the power of the brand, and the super weapon he assembled...

It made Lin Feng feel that he had the strength to challenge the mid-stage or even late-stage second-stage mutant wild beasts.

Hearing Bai Ye's kind reminder at this moment, he naturally had some additional opposite thoughts.

After all, the divine dog is also a member of the team, and its evolution level and strength need to keep up with the level of the team.

Ripened by a large amount of fortified meat, it is now almost reaching its youth stage and entering the mid-term fortification stage.

When the next Holy Spring Day comes, I will have to consider its cross-level evolution.

Once you pass the Valley of the Fallen Wolf in the Taishan ruins, it will be much more difficult to find traces of the steppe wolf in the vast wilderness than it is to find traces of the migrating rock wildebeest.

A tricycle was driving on the road, ridden by Chen Shanshan.

In the back car, there was a man and two women.

Ding Yi looked at Lin Feng who was in deep thought, guessed his intention, and then said:

"The steppe wolf is different from the rockhorn beetle. Although both are social animals, the former is a ferocious steppe predator. As long as the latter does not go too far, killing one or two first-stage early-stage rockhorn beetles will not attract the attention of the clan leaders."

"If you want to take action, it's best to find a small or medium-sized wolf pack that doesn't have a patriarch-level wasteland wolf to protect them. After they leave the Fallen Wolf Valley, follow them all the way and wait for an opportunity to strike."

Lin Feng frowned slightly:

"Large herds of wild beasts are usually accompanied and protected by clan leaders, right? For example, the one we encountered in the Wild Rift."

"Just now in Fallen Wolf Valley, there shouldn't be any small packs of wasteland wolves nearby, right?"

Ding Yi shook her head and explained:

"Rock wildebeest are herbivorous, migratory animals with weak fighting abilities. They need to survive in groups. Even if they gather in large numbers, their solar-powered rock armor will not affect their individual food and energy acquisition."

"But steppe wolves are different. They need to eat meat to survive in the wasteland, and the barren wasteland cannot provide a stable supply of large amounts of food to satisfy the consumption of large wolf packs."

"Just like the pack of wasteland wolves we encountered outside Oasis Town before, there were only about twenty of them. Even if it has a first-level evolved leader, the number of members is still not too large."

"The limited food source restricts the size of the wolf pack. Furthermore, they are competitive and hunt each other when food is scarce..."

After finishing the analysis, Ding Yi pushed his glasses:

"All of the above factors determine that after leaving Fallen Wolf Valley, the Wasteland Wolf Pack will definitely go their separate ways and sneak into the wasteland to search for prey on their own."

"We will only need this one tank, and we won't need too many people. The other slower transport vehicles and dormitory vehicles can stay where they are or return to Oasis Town."

Lin Feng nodded. With Ding Yi by his side, he could save himself a lot of unnecessary work and avoid pitfalls.

Liu Qian standing aside had a serious expression on her face.

The hunter's notes she had purchased could no longer provide reference suggestions for the problems the team was facing now, and she gradually realized that Lin Feng, who had been promoted to the second level, was drifting away from the other members of the team.

If Lin Feng wants to adopt a family-style development model, the others can still help, such as serving as managers in the farm village.

As for wanderers, they are not taken into consideration.

The worst case scenario is to continue to follow the elite route in the form of a small team, pursuing continuous evolution and becoming stronger, rather than stopping to rest and develop steadily.

Then everyone except Chen Shanshan may be eliminated or abandoned.

Judging from the fact that Lin Feng rejected the conditions offered by the church and was unwilling to take over the rock wildebeest industry in Farm Village, his intention was definitely to take the elite route.

The sense of crisis that had just dissipated in Liu Qian's heart surged into her heart again at this moment.

In the future, the second-level team with Lin Feng as the core will no longer need members who can drive cars or manage logistics, but members who have special skills.

His eldest brother, Liu Mingfei, although he has the strength of the initial evolution of the first stage, has no fighting spirit. Now he is not even as good as A Lian and A Ming who joined later...

Therefore, in this operation, the role of the Liu brothers and sisters became less and less important, and their status in the team and in Lin Feng's heart naturally plummeted.

Liu Mingfei didn't mind. After becoming an Evolver, he had no goals to strive for. He just wanted to get a job in Oasis Town and live out the rest of his life comfortably. Liu Qian was helpless. She couldn't force her brother to face a life-or-death crisis. Given his personality, he would most likely be the first victim.

Lin Feng discovered this, so he arranged for him to stay on the surface to guard the car.

After all, it is unlikely that an ordinary person from the old Earth era, especially an older man, can transform into a calm and decisive warrior in just a few months.

As for Alian and Amin, although they have some experience in living and fighting in the wasteland, their own evolutionary potential is limited and their abilities are insufficient.

Those male Berserker Evolvers who have also awakened their physical constitutions and enhanced their abilities are much stronger than them.

If the team needs a core member who can withstand injuries, men are definitely more valuable to train than women.

Therefore, Liu Qian, who is well aware of the changes in relationships, has already vaguely sensed the future direction of the team.

The solemnity on her face at this moment came from her entanglement with her own fate.

Of course, she wanted to stay in the team and follow Lin Feng and the team members to see the new world and the large mobile city in the distance.

Of course, the most fundamental reason is one’s own strength.

Liu Qian's awakened ability, energy control, has great potential for development, but it's too weak in the early stages...

It needs to evolve to at least the second level before it can see any improvement and have any effect.

Liu Qian learned from Chen Shanshan that the leader of the Salvation Army was an evolver with the ability to control space. He was able to fight against a third-order deformer in a duel. He could also float in the air and release explosions with a wave of his hand that were more powerful than the cannon in Lin Feng's hand.

Although spatial abilities only play an auxiliary role in the early stages, their power gradually becomes apparent as the level increases and the abilities develop.

This made Liu Qian very envious.

When Liu Qian saw Bai Ye, the leader of the Salvation Army, in the shelter cave just now, she was even more impressed by his stunning appearance and proud aura, and her eyes were full of longing and envy.

Bai Ye is what she is looking for.

Just very rational...

The reality is very skinny.

Extremely high potential means that it is only useful in the late stage, but most physical and energy-type mutants rarely grow to the late stage.

Firstly, the probability of awakening is very low. Secondly, a lot of resources need to be invested, especially for energy-related abilities, which require one to explore and develop how to use them, which consumes more resources.

Today, wastelands are precisely the environments with the most scarce and scarce resources.

The same resources can be used to cultivate multiple berserkers with enhanced physical abilities, and these warriors can also directly participate in battle and play a role.

So for Liu Qian, if she wants to continue evolving and improving her strength, she will never make any progress in her lifetime if she only relies on empowering bullets by herself.

Making empowered bullets requires consuming superpowers, and these superpowers require eating a large amount of evolutionary meat to quickly replenish their status.

Only by staying in Lin Feng's team could Liu Qian obtain the extremely precious evolution meat so conveniently and for free.

Otherwise, once you leave the team, if you want to earn resources by empowering bullets, the investment cost may not be as high as the profit.

The more Liu Qian analyzed, the more she felt that only by staying with Lin Feng and in the team could she benefit from it and evolve to a higher level.

However, to stay, a skill that empowers bullets is far from enough.

Because Lin Feng himself does not need additional empowerment, his optimization ability can allow the power of the artillery shells to continue to increase, which is faster and more convenient than small empowerment.

In the moving tricycle, Liu Qian tightly grasped the fine AK rifle in his hand and made a secret decision.

The tricycle traveled westward for more than ten kilometers across the vast wasteland.

This place is far enough away from the Feicheng shelter, so there is no need to worry about affecting the underground ruins or disturbing the Meteoric Wolf Valley, which is thirty or forty kilometers away.

Lin Feng immediately stopped moving forward.

If it’s farther, the return journey will also be troublesome.

After getting off the car, everyone looked around, looking for a landmark target that could serve as a target.

Soon Lin Feng saw the ruins of a county town located at the western end of Mount Tai, with many hills hundreds of meters high rising nearby.

Lin Feng led everyone to walk for a while and stopped one kilometer away from the hill. This distance was just right so that they could clearly observe the destructive effect of the super weapon.

After selecting a small hill, Lin Feng immediately picked up two cannons.

The armor-piercing cannon in the right hand and the high-explosive rapid-fire cannon in the left hand are assembled and synthesized by activating the power of the brand:

"Do you want to spend ten health points to temporarily combine the level 20 armor-piercing cannon and the high-explosive rapid-fire cannon?"

"Note: Temporary assembly synthesis only lasts ten minutes, and the current potential growth limit is level twenty-five."

Lin Feng didn't hesitate and started tissue synthesis directly.

Now that he had 200 health points, a mere 10 health points didn't matter at all and wouldn't have much impact on his condition.

As ten points of health were extracted from the body and poured into the guns in his left and right hands, the two guns seemed to be decomposed and reconstructed, undergoing a Transformer-like transformation and reorganizing into a three-meter-long cannon.

The barrel is two meters long, more than twenty centimeters thick on the outside, and the inner diameter of the barrel wall is as much as a fist.

Lin Feng estimated that it was about thirteen or fourteen centimeters.

It was equivalent to a 122mm howitzer. As the synthesized super weapon was born, its attribute data also appeared in the corner of Lin Feng's eyes. It was almost as powerful as the mm howitzer:

"Rapid-fire armor-piercing cannon level 25, orange quality, brand"

"Basic Attributes: Damage 500, Effective Range 5km, Damage Coverage 25m, Remaining Tungsten Core Armor-Piercing 1000; Temporary Synthesis, Duration Minutes"

「额外属性：备弹回复1/1h；空间弹匣1000枚；范围杀伤(覆盖半径25米，中心5米伤害500)；极速追击(切换为自动模式，每秒十发)，破甲炮弹(穿甲能力提升100%，伤害+50)」

"Note: After ten minutes, the temporary assembly synthesis effect will be lifted, and the lv25 rapid-fire armor-piercing cannon will be degraded back to the lv20 high-explosive rapid-fire cannon and the lv20 armor-piercing cannon."

With the additional boost of destructive shells, the total damage is as high as 550 points. One shot can kill a mid-stage second-level evolver, or seriously injure a late-stage second-level existence.

With such lethality, Lin Feng felt that he could single-handedly fight against a patriarch-level wasteland wolf, or single-handedly defeat a patriarch-level second-order rockhorn horse.

Combined with the exoskeleton power armor, which provides strength and speed enhancement, it can definitely compete with the second-level Steppe Wolf.

After looking at the attribute data of the super weapon in his hand, Lin Feng did not hesitate. He immediately picked up the three-meter-long, nearly half-meter-wide high-explosive armor-piercing cannon with both hands and aimed it at the target he had selected before.

One kilometer away, there is a two-hundred-meter-high hill with a pile of huge rocks in the middle.

With the trigger pulled!

There was a loud bang, and the strong recoil directly shook Lin Feng's hunched shooting posture.

If it weren't for the powerful physique after the second-level evolution and the strength of more than ten tons, even if an ordinary first-level evolver fired a shot with a synthetic weapon, the powerful recoil would directly shatter his shoulder in an instant.

You should know that this is a weapon with a caliber and power greater than that of a 122mm howitzer!
The recoil shock of a howitzer's round is comparable to a multi-ton charged punch. Traditional howitzers have hydraulic buffer valves under their barrels to mitigate the recoil...

Lin Feng felt like he was enduring the recoil of a howitzer. The muscles in his shoulders were a little sore, and his hands and feet were slightly numb from the vibration.

After all, it is a level 20 evolved body. It is normal that he is not quite used to forcibly controlling a level 25 artillery.

As the large-caliber artillery shells shot straight towards the mountainside one kilometer away, there was a loud bang!

BOOM!

The giant rock that was ten meters wide and two or three meters thick where the shell landed was instantly blown into pieces, with debris flying everywhere. The rest of the rocks nearby were also affected and fell and rolled.

As the attribute description suggests, the entire affected area can cover a radius of 25 meters, which is close to the size of two basketball courts. Within five meters of the central area, even a two or three meter thick rock can be shattered with one blow.

If converted to the patriarch-level rockhorn horse, the second-level early rockhorn horse that had been chasing it would definitely not be able to withstand the damage of this armor-piercing cannon.

If they have the chance to meet again, Lin Feng will also treat the other party well and let him experience the feeling of being chased.

Three seconds after the trigger was pulled, the shell was fired, and the explosion occurred, a strong airflow swept over everyone, carrying smoke and dust.

It is the spread of the shock wave. Although it is not very powerful one kilometer away, it is only blown by winds of level three or four.

But for Chen Shanshan and the other two standing by, it was as shocking as seeing heaven and hell coming.

With just one shot, a fifty-meter-wide clearing was created on the two-hundred-meter-high mountainside. If this had been fired at a herd of wild beasts, wouldn't it have been a direct hit?

One artillery shell is a small herd of animals.

Even if he encounters multiple large herds of beasts, Lin Feng has strong pressure and can defeat them all.

Chen Shanshan walked forward curiously to check out the huge new gun in Lin Feng's hand.

Ding Yi was busy analyzing how to formulate follow-up plans based on Lin Feng's current combat power.

Liu Qian was impressed by Lin Feng's true strength and became more determined. She took an AK rifle and walked forward to practice shooting together.

Lin Feng tried two more missiles and confirmed that the rapid-fire armor-piercing cannon had enough power and damage to easily seriously injure a late-stage second-order creature. Then he took the two women in the team and prepared to return.

At this moment, a low wailing sound came from the hill in the distance that he used as a target.

Lin Feng sounded familiar.

Listening carefully, it turned out to be a wolf howling! ?
