Wasteland: My items are infinitely upgraded.

Chapter 160 A rich harvest, killing the second-stage mid-stage corpse wolf!

After being reminded by Zong Shiyue, Lin Feng realized that as resurrected corpse wolves, they were all zombies controlled by the genetic radiation of the wolf king!
Just like the zombie dogs in Resident Evil, they have no self-awareness or pain nerve response.

Trying to resolve this battle by seriously injuring or killing is simply unrealistic!
There is only one way to stop a second-level corpse wolf from attacking, and that is to destroy its nervous system!
The cervical vertebrae connected to the body and the spinal nerves below are the lines that control the muscles of the whole body. As long as they are shattered, the entire corpse wolf can be paralyzed.

Previously, Lin Feng took into consideration that the bones of a second-level wasteland wolf might also transform into steel bones, especially the wolf skull, which is the hardest part of the wasteland wolf. Therefore, Lin Feng did not aim the gun at these places at the beginning.

Now, after Zong Shiyue's timely reminder, Lin Feng no longer hesitated. While retreating violently, he aimed the armor-piercing cannon in his left hand at the raised shoulder bone area above the target's neck.

Bang bang bang!
First, six shells hit one of them accurately, and then another six shells were fired in a row. After the first giant wolf fell, they locked onto its companions beside it!
During the challenge of the supernatural power trial during his promotion, Lin Feng faced the faster third-order distortion king. After experiencing the torture of countless resurrections and rebirths, his spear skills had been repeatedly honed to perfection.

Now, with the addition of the assisted aiming of the power armor, it can not only continuously track and lock onto the enemy, like cheating, but also make advance aiming and predictions for the wearer.

So even if the enraged second-level corpse wolf rushed over at a speed of 100 meters per second, quickly crossing the 400-meter-long platform and approaching Lin Feng at the end...

But the armor-piercing cannon with a speed of one thousand meters per second can still arrive ahead of time at the speed of breaking sound!

In each batch of six armor-piercing cannons, two of them hit the giant wolf's left and right front legs respectively, interrupting their charge, and the other four accurately hit the cervical vertebrae above their necks.

A series of four armor-piercing cannons dealt as much as a thousand points of damage. Not to mention the early-stage second-order corpse wolves, even a living patriarch-level early-to-middle-stage second-order wasteland wolf could not withstand such a bombardment!

The two giant wolves, covered in blood and flesh, had their bones broken and their ligaments and nerves severed as they exploded. They fell to the ground with a loud bang.

When the smoke cleared, Lin Feng walked forward and saw two giant wolf corpses lying on the tracks beside the platform, but their tails and hind legs were still twitching.

A faint low moan came from his mouth.

Lin Feng narrowed his eyes slightly, and the armor-piercing cannon in his left hand was still aimed at the target. Once they showed signs of standing up, he would decisively pull the trigger again.

It was mainly due to the previous misjudgment that made Lin Feng, who had survived the disaster, still feel a lingering fear...

The heart rate displayed on the armored screen in front of him was over two hundred.

The big heart in the chest is three or four times larger than that of an ordinary person. Only in this way can it provide sufficient power for the powerful second-level body.

"Don't worry. If the nervous system is severed, it's completely dead. Even if it can still twitch, it won't pose a threat."

Zong Shiyue's figure slowly emerged. The death of the two second-stage early-stage corpse wolves immediately reduced the radiation pressure from the Wolf King he felt, and his consciousness became more active.

Lin Feng breathed a sigh of relief and went forward to check.

The two early-stage second-level corpse wolves both exuded the aura of a twenty-third-level evolution and were quite powerful.

Especially deep within the body cavity, that vigorous beating heart still faintly exudes the aura of a third-level king, constantly radiating the genetic pollution of the wolf king...

Two portions of level 23 life essence, plus the five portions of level 20 basic essence obtained previously, are enough for Lin Feng to advance all the way to level 23, the upper limit of the initial stage of the second stage.

The harvest of this trip was extremely rich!

To kill several patriarch-level wild beasts in a row in the wasteland above the surface would take a month just to search for their traces. It would not be as easy as it is now.

But before he could be happy for long, Lin Feng realized a new problem:

The two second-level corpse wolves were too huge. It would take a long time to dismember them and take away the evolutionary meat, and he didn't have the tools to do so.

According to the size of a patriarch-level second-order behemoth, the evolved meat in its body weighs at least 500 kilograms to one ton. Although the weight is not a problem, the subsequent transportation and source material extraction are big problems.

It is far less convenient than collecting the corpses of second-level wolves.

"Sorry, what do we do with the body? It'll burn under the scorching sun if we take it out. Is your box big enough?"

Lin Feng asked, then looked towards the tunnel entrance at the edge of the shelter with a vigilant look.

At this moment, a deeper growl came from inside.

Zong Shiyue's figure appeared behind Lin Feng and explained:

"The Blazing Sunlight can only penetrate the upper three layers. For creatures like the Second-Level Corpse Wolf, which are active in the middle three layers and don't have any deformed components, there's no need to worry about their entire bodies being set on fire even if they incorporate some of the Blazing Sun Curse."

"Deformations with complex genes and incomplete fusion are prone to absorbing cursed energy. Because their cellular gene chains are unstable and dysfunctional, the scorching sun energy can easily invade their cells, causing them to vibrate rapidly and surge to boiling point, thus manifesting as spontaneous combustion."

"Because of this, the strength of the aberrants is also significantly weaker than those of the same level. The instability of their genetic inheritance causes their bodies to be in a state of self-disintegration at any time."

"The solution is to disperse them and let them infect a large number of surface creatures. 90% of the distortion will definitely be ignited by the scorching sun, but 5% won't be a big problem."

"So the evolved meat from the second-level corpse wolf, especially the part contaminated with the third-level wolf king's cells, is not contaminated. You can just cut it off and take it away."

"Although there will be some burning, it does not affect the overall use value."

After explaining, Zong Shiyue followed Lin Feng's gaze and looked at the two tunnel entrances that were more than ten meters high:

"But let's put the dissection of the second-level corpse wolf aside for now. For now, let's get on with our business."

Lin Feng nodded and asked about the structure of the tunnel:

"Is the space inside bigger? The echoes I heard were fluctuating. Could it be that a Level 2 Corpse Wolf has built a den in there?"

Zong Shiyue shook his head. He knew the construction situation of that year very well, or in other words, most of the structures were excavated by him personally.

When a third-level king unleashes his full power, his might is comparable to that of a heavy shield machine. He has the ability to rely on mountains and seas and transform the natural environment. For him, digging holes and opening roads is a piece of cake.

Zong Shiyue raised his hand and pointed at the cave entrance:

"The tunnel from here to the Taishan Ruins is a total of 22 kilometers. There are two hidden shelters at 8 and 16 kilometers, respectively. They're not large, only about one kilometer, and can sustain over 10,000 people. These were emergency plans prepared in advance to prevent accidents at the shelters."

"And it's built on two underground riverbeds with abundant water resources. Through geothermal power generation and water circulation, it has been able to operate independently for thousands of years."

"Unfortunately, both transfer stations were breached by the Wasteland Wolves. Now, they are guarded by two mid-stage second-level corpse wolves, and sixteen kilometers away, a powerful late-stage second-level corpse wolf."

Lin Feng frowned slightly. The low roar in his ears became more and more intense. He couldn't tell whether it was the mumbling of mental pollution or the imminent danger.
"The left and right tunnels at these two nodes are interconnected, right?"

Zong Shiyue nodded:

"It's not just communication, it can be said that there is no barrier at all!"

"After going in for a few hundred meters, in order to speed up the project, the marine planetary engine had already been ignited, so I used brute force to open a passage forty meters wide and fifteen meters high!"

"It's like merging the two tunnels together, allowing the second-level corpse wolves to pass through. This also lays the seeds for their subsequent invasion..."

"So my suggestion is to run to six kilometers and then conduct a large-scale bombardment."

"If we destroy the tunnel right here, the collapsed area inside will be very short, and there's a chance that a second-level corpse wolf can dig and clear it again. Don't forget that dogs are also good at digging holes."

"It would be best to destroy the emergency shelter at the bottom as well!"

"Don't worry. A mid-stage Steppenwolf is 20 meters long and 10 meters tall. Only a single one can move freely in the tunnel." "If two of them walk side by side, they can't even turn. They're just sitting ducks."

"If you dare to come over, just bombard it!"

Lin Feng took a deep breath and saw that the two tunnels on the left and right had merged together. He no longer hesitated, took a step forward, chose the deep cave entrance on the right, and stepped into it.

At this moment, twenty minutes had passed since he activated the power armor, and there was about an hour of battery life left. It was only a distance of five or six kilometers, and even if the bombardment time and the return trip were included, it was still in time.

Inside the inky black tunnel, a deep roar and the sound of dripping water became increasingly clear.

Especially when Lin Feng walked out of the separating cave entrance and came to the adjacent large cave, the soft music in his ears and mind became longer and more continuous.

This suggests that the sound may have come from more than one source.

Deep in the tunnel, there is more than one second-level zombie wolf, and there are also more leaks.

Although this tunnel was praised by Zong Shiyue as being very solid, many of the welds have begun to leak due to thousands of years of disrepair.

Water drips through stone, and over time, the damage to the structure will become very serious.

Perhaps just firing a few armor-piercing cannons would cause the concrete wall on the top of the cave to fall off and the tunnels to collapse one after another.

Fortunately, Lin Feng did not use the artillery in his hand rashly before to explore the way. If he was not careful and directly blew up an area, it would be counterproductive.

Zong Shiyue, who was standing by, saw what Lin Feng was thinking and reminded him:

"Although it's not as strong as it was back then, your less powerful cannon can still withstand it."

"The light can't reach more than a hundred meters right now. I've called in three Aberration Kings to help you scout the way. Wait a moment, they'll be here soon."

Not long after Zong Shiyue finished speaking, a series of footsteps suddenly came from behind Lin Feng.

Then three figures were seen crawling forward, avoiding Lin Feng and crawling towards the depths of the tunnel.

Three third-order deformers are already the limit of what Zong Shiyue can control now.

If most of its original flesh and blood had not been put into the black box, it could at least control more than ten third-order distortion kings at the same time.

However, these mutants, who only have the blessing of third-level cells but lack third-level strength, cannot defeat the group of patriarch-level second-level corpse wolves even if there are ten of them.

Especially in the eyes of the late second-stage zombie wolves, the third-stage distortion king is simply an after-meal dessert that can be eaten one bite at a time.

But now it is definitely more than enough to explore the way and help Lin Feng find out the enemy situation.

As the two early-stage zombie wolves guarding the tunnel entrance were killed swiftly, Lin Feng, wearing power armor, led the way by three third-order mutants, maintaining a high speed of 100 meters per second and traveling unimpeded on the track inside the cave.

In the end, it took less than a minute to reach a dark place five kilometers deep.

There is a sign engraved on the side of the tunnel. Although the paint on it has completely decomposed and dissipated, the traces of the words "five kilometers" are still there.

With less than one kilometer left to the target, Lin Feng slowly slowed down and stopped.

Stay cautiously on the right side to prevent enemy surprise attacks.

The early stage of the second stage zombies can be dealt with by armor-piercing cannons, but the middle stage of the second stage zombies are not so easy.

The enemy's evolution level is stronger at level 24 or above. The damage of the level 20 armor-piercing cannon alone is slightly lacking, and it is difficult to eliminate it with five or six shots.

The resurrected Steppenwolf that has become a walking corpse is more difficult to kill than the living patriarch-level Steppenwolf.

The former, as a zombie wolf, can maintain high speed and continue to attack even if seriously injured.

So at this moment, Lin Feng tightly grasped the two cannons in his hands, and out of the corner of his eyes, he called out the assembly and synthesis of the power of branding. He planned to use the power of branding directly to synthesize his strongest weapon and combat power if anything went wrong during the next few hundred meters.
Level 25 rapid-fire mortar!
A damage of up to 550 points is definitely enough to give the second-stage mid-stage zombie wolf a hard time!

At this moment, not only Lin Feng held his breath and concentrated, but even Zong Shiyue who was standing beside him was staring nervously at the bottomless darkness a hundred meters away.

The three third-order aberrations are arranged in a front-to-back arrangement, 600 meters, 400 meters and 200 meters ahead. In this way, by using the aberrations as signal relay stations, the long-distance detection of the sensing signal can be maintained in the tunnel filled with Wolf King radiation.

Lin Feng is ready to kill a mid-stage corpse wolf to pave the way for his subsequent promotion to the mid-stage second stage!
At this moment, both he and Zong Shiyue were staring at the abyss of the tunnel in the distance with their minds tense, in case of any unexpected changes.

However, at this moment, a rhythmic thudding sound suddenly came from beside Lin Feng!

Lin Feng's hair stood on end, and he was about to synthesize weapons!
But after careful perception, the direction from which the thudding sound came was not from the abyss in the distance, but from the thick cement wall on the right.

This means that, nearly a hundred meters below the ground outside the tunnel, there are actually traces of biological activity!?

Lin Feng was stunned and looked at Zong Shiyue beside him.

The two looked at each other in surprise.

Apparently, the latter also noticed this and felt it was inexplicably strange. What kind of thing could live deep underground and keep making these thumping sounds...

Although the sound is rhythmic, it does not maintain a constant pattern of impact, so the possibility of a machine can be ruled out.

Lin Feng, who dared not utter a word at this moment, asked the other party silently:

"Steppenwolf?"

Zong Shiyue shook his head, and his voice rang directly in Lin Feng's mind:

"Impossible, the pace is too slow. You've seen dogs digging in the dirt before. It's like a brush, so fast that it leaves afterimages."

"Don't think too much. At this digging speed, it will take a long time for it to break in!"

"Here it comes! One of the second-level corpse wolves!"

With Zong Shiyue's timely reminder, Lin Feng, who was already tense all over, immediately retreated while synthesizing a rapid-fire armor-piercing cannon!
Three seconds later, a giant wolf over 20 meters in size rushed out from the abyss, and its huge head alone was five or six meters in size.

His eyes flashed red, filled with murderous intent. He still held a half-broken third-order aberration in his mouth, letting out a deep roar...

Rushing towards Lin Feng at high speed!
Fortunately, at the critical moment, the lv25 rapid-fire armor-piercing cannon was finally synthesized!

Lin Feng immediately raised the muzzle of his gun and fired crazily within the limited ten minutes!

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
The shells, with flashes of fire, hit the mid-stage second-order zombie wolf and the tunnel behind it!
BOOM!

There was a loud bang, and the entire tunnel wall began to collapse in a chain reaction under the violent impact of the explosion!

At the same time, the second-stage mid-stage zombie wolf, which was directly hit by more than a dozen high-explosive armor-piercing cannons, had its limbs shattered and fell to the ground!
