Wasteland: My items are infinitely upgraded.

Chapter 224 Persuasion and Enlightenment, Shen Yue's Cooperation

Lin Feng narrowed his eyes and listened quietly to the whispers from seventy or eighty meters away.

One ear trembled slightly from time to time, analyzing the vibration frequency of the sound waves.

Soon, this group of young people were led away from this place by a mid-level first-level being among them.

The leader is the strongest, with a mid-stage upper limit of level 16, which is equivalent to Shen Yue's evolution level. He is also the leader of this group of young people who are about to launch a "self-rescue operation".

This guy probably has a close relationship with the Li family and is the oldest. He obviously wants to encourage the young people in Shangmin District to cooperate with the Li family to seize the Oasis battleship.

Lin Feng was not very interested in these things, but what they were about to do made Lin Feng happy.

What better way to get close to the restricted area than to catch people who violate the rules and enter the restricted area without permission during patrol and inspection?

Arresting them was Lin Feng's excuse and pretext for exploring the restricted area of ​​the Oasis in a reasonable and legal manner.

Seeing that this group of people had already started to act, Lin Feng no longer stopped to think and directly called out to Shen Yue, who had just finished her meal:
"Let's go, there's work to do."

Shen Yue burped and was about to pick up the freshly squeezed juice beside her when she suddenly became interested. She stood up while drinking and walked to Lin Feng.

At this time, night has fallen in Shangmin District. Although it is not as grand as the Holy Spring Day, the light shining through the glass on the top is much dimmer.

The entire Shangmin District fell into dusk.

Fortunately, it is not completely dark because there is no need to hold a moonlit night ceremony, so it does not need to be completely sealed. The workers on the top only need to use mechanical devices to cover two-thirds of the area with photovoltaic panels.

Leave one-third of the middle area and keep the upper civilian area below, which still has the original one-third of brightness.

It was pitch dark in the darkness. Even though Lin Feng was a second-level evolver, he couldn't see what was happening a hundred meters away. The most he could do was use his perception to explore the surroundings.

The current dim environment has a certain impact on first-level evolvers, but in Lin Feng's eyes, it is no different from daytime.

Shen Yue saw nothing different outside the window and was puzzled:

"What's going on? What kind of work is this? Could it be that the Li family has already taken action in secret?"

What made Shen Yue lose her appetite and worried at the moment was that the originally planned rebellion had turned into a martial arts competition that was resolved peacefully.

She had invested heavily in order to stand out in this rebellion and seize the opportunity to change her fate, but in the end, the rebellion was suppressed by the bishop.

At this moment in Oasis Town, no one wanted the Li family to launch a fierce rebellion more than Shen Yue. Even if they accepted the arena competition method, it would be best to do some small actions on the Oasis battleship.

Although the tasks assigned to the church by the bishop mainly focused on arena competitions, at least 30% of the personnel and forces were still on guard against the Li family.

In order to avoid being stolen by the other party.

For example, they still insisted on arranging a high priest to guard outside the oasis command and control room to prevent the enemy from taking advantage of the situation and forcibly occupying the control room.

As for maintaining the normal operation of the Oasis warships, the church monks were also given daily patrol tasks.

Although Shen Yue is not qualified to compete in the arena, she is fully qualified for daily patrols for a level 16 evolver.

Her mission is to inspect the civilian areas of the Oasis, especially the church area at the bow and the Oasis Garden at the stern, starting early tomorrow morning.

Both of these places are top priorities.

On the contrary, if something happens in Shangmin District, there is no need to be too nervous.

Even if there were Li family undercovers inside, secretly inciting the energetic young people to rebel, indiscriminately sabotage, or attack others...

It's not a big loss for the church or the entire oasis.

Once the Holy City Bishopric accepts the Oasis in the future, these upper civilian areas, which were originally just compromises between various forces, will no longer have any value in existence because their only function is to better complete the task of recording the Fiery Sun Forbidden Zone.

The upper classes will either continue to be consumables but their treatment will plummet, or they will become high-level slaves and be sold to the Holy City or other royal city forces.

Many powerful people are very fond of this unpolluted, pure and flawless product. In addition, with the strength of the first level of evolution, they can withstand the reckless behavior...

The price is several times more expensive than that of a normal evolved slave.

Lin Feng also planned to take the opportunity to rob some...

For example, those who wanted to sabotage secretly just now.

They are very suitable to be demoted to prisoners in advance and pay the price for their actions.

Lin Feng then said:

"Just now I saw a group of young people discussing going to Oasis Garden to find some control room..."

"I think they were trying to sabotage it, so it was really interesting."

Hearing this, Shen Yue, who was originally a little confused, immediately became gloomy and frowned.

Oasis Garden is the key to the Moonlit Night Ritual. Even if the main task of Oasis Town in the future is no longer to simply record the Fiery Sun Forbidden Zone, the Moonlit Night Ritual will still be necessary.

There is still an irreplaceable demand for the giant lens in the Oasis Garden. Only such a large mirror can project the shape of the light source hundreds of miles away into the observation box, and then the sacrificer can record it with his body as the carrier.

If these guys were to destroy the lens, the damage caused would not only cause a small disturbance, but would also destroy the foundation of the oasis.

It would take at least several years to reforge a high-strength, dense giant lens.

Thinking of this, Shen Yue was about to turn around and head for the oasis, but then she changed her mind and realized that she was responsible for daytime security and patrols, while nighttime security patrols were the responsibility of another team...

If I act rashly, I'm afraid something might go wrong.

So he stopped and turned to look at Lin Feng who was following behind him:
"My team isn't in charge of the night shift. We need to report this to the day and night shift as soon as possible. Only if they ask for our assistance can we proceed..."

"Please wait here for a moment. I'll be back soon."

"I'll accompany Chief Lin on the inspection then."

Lin Feng frowned slightly, seeing Shen Yue's serious expression full of anxiety, but after she said that, it would be difficult to achieve his goal.

He needed someone to lead the way and help him figure out the construction principle of the Light Prism Curse. But if the guide wasn't just one member, but a whole group...

Then it won't be easy to fish in troubled waters.

Lin Feng told her all this because he knew Shen Yue well, and this silly and impulsive woman was easy to fool.

So in order to achieve his goal, Lin Feng raised his hand, stepped forward, placed it on the other person's shoulder, and said earnestly:
"Not only am I now the Honorary Archon of the Oasis, but at a recent conference, I was also granted the temporary custodian status of the Oasis Key..."

"This matter is a secret among secrets. Only the second-level beings who are also archons know it."

"This is also the Li family's agreement to the arena competition, forcing the bishop to make a concession and hand over the Oasis key to me for temporary safekeeping." "After the arena competition results are announced, I will hand the key to the victorious party."

After hearing Lin Feng's words, Shen Yue jumped back in fright as if she had seen a ghost.

He was in a daze for three seconds before he nervously took several steps back. Just as he was about to speak, he was interrupted by Lin Feng:

"Shh! This matter is a secret among secrets. Even some late-stage first-order evolvers are not qualified to know."

"As long as you know, don't say it."

The private rooms in the special restaurant on the third floor were all soundproofed with soft padding. Lin Feng could sense that there was no one eavesdropping nearby, so he whispered.

But Shen Yue didn't know that if she spoke out loud, she would lose the opportunity to move freely and could only stay in a secret room where no one knew about it until the result of the competition came out.

Fortunately, Shen Yue was not a rash person. She quickly understood the situation, suppressed her inner excitement, and replied in a low voice:

"I remember that the Oasis Key is the symbol of Oasis. Whoever masters it will become the captain of Oasis."

"This item has been kept in the personal care of the Bishop since the founding of Oasis Town. I never thought he would hand it over directly to you for protection."

"In that case, you are now the temporary captain of Oasis, and you have the power of the mayor of Oasis..."

"Tsk tsk..."

After saying this, Shen Yue looked at Lin Feng with respect, as well as disbelief and suspicion.

Lin Feng did not offer any further explanation. Shen Yue's level was not enough for him to produce the secret key to prove what he said was true...

What is more important right now is to make Shen Yue completely obey his orders and complete the exploration of the warship.

In addition to the Curse of Light Prism, the entire structure and blueprints of the battleship are also a considerable fortune.

As long as he writes them down and stores them in the photographic memory of a second-level evolver, when Lin Feng upgrades his chariots in the future, he will have a clear direction for the transformation.

So Lin Feng skipped the secret key and got down to business:
"After being granted the Oasis Key by the Bishop, I entered the command and control room at the core of the Oasis. From there, I learned that the secret control room beneath the Oasis Garden is not only essential for coordinating the Moonlit Night Ritual, but also involves some extremely secret super weapon aboard the Oasis warship."

"If we allow these guys to achieve their goal and cause irreparable damage to the control room, the consequences will be disastrous."

"So we can't delay any longer. Although my mission is to keep the Oasis key, as long as the key is in my hands, I will shoulder the responsibilities of Oasis Captain and ensure that Oasis is not harmed in the slightest."

"This is the only way to live up to the Bishop's complete trust in me!"

Shen Yue nodded, and looked at the man in front of her with increasing respect, and said directly:

"That's right. Now that the Bishop is away, you are the supreme commander of this oasis. All arrangements regarding the oasis will be subject to your command."

"And with Captain Lin's strength, he's more than enough to deal with any target below level two..."

Lin Feng nodded and struck while the iron was hot:

"Let's go. When we meet the night patrol team, we can tell them about this. After all, I just heard it by chance and have no actual evidence..."

"The situation is so tense right now. On the one hand, we can't act in a big way to avoid alerting the enemy. On the other hand, if Assistant Priest Shen catches the criminal directly, he will be caught red-handed!"

"It will confirm their rebellion."

"Besides that, you also solved a major case, which is enough to earn you a lot of credit."

"If I tell the night shift training team, even if you join the team, the final reward you'll get will probably be less than one-fifth of the original profit."

"It's best to investigate this matter secretly and do it quietly."

"It just so happens that I have the status of temporary Oasis Captain. I can ask you to take me on a patrol of the Oasis. Even if the night shift patrols and interrogates me, I will be able to handle it."

Shen Yue suddenly understood under Lin Feng's guidance. This was a critical moment. Even though she had an obligation to report the enemy situation, she couldn't report it without confirmation...

The best approach is to explore on your own, and finally resolve all the issues before receiving the honor as a hero.

But the only problem with doing this is that if you can't completely eliminate the enemy, it will only lead to damage and worsening the situation...

Even if you have the status of an official acolyte, it will be recorded and you will never be able to make a breakthrough in your life.

The other side probably has several or even more than a dozen first-level early to middle-stage evolvers. Although they are not good at fighting, Shen Yue is alone and cannot defeat them all in an instant.

The only hope she can rely on is the man who is encouraging her.

Fortunately, Lin Feng also saw the hope and hesitation in Shen Yue's complex eyes at this moment, and then spoke decisively to dispel her worries:

"Don't worry, I'll definitely help you through this. It was my advice that led you to take that desperate gamble. Now that things haven't turned out the way we wanted, I also bear some responsibility..."

"Just consider this time of helping you as my compensation, but this is only once."

"After we capture the person, you will have to take me on a tour of the entire Oasis warship. I need to ensure that it is not damaged in any way and at least handed over in good condition."

Only in this way can one achieve great merit in the eyes of the monks of the Holy City Diocese and obtain the status of arbitrary deputy mayor.

Lay a solid foundation for future trips to the Holy City, including establishing your own second-level power in the future.

Otherwise, once you arrive in the Holy City and want to achieve such a great achievement, you will definitely have frequent contact with the third-level bishop.

Therefore, if there are some things that can be done well in a place without supervision, they must be completed in advance.

Otherwise, if you miss this opportunity, you won’t have such good conditions to seize the next chance.

The reason why Lin Feng could rise so quickly was not only because of the help of the system, but also because he had grasped every opportunity since he woke up in the wasteland.

Achieve qualitative improvement with three leaps in one step.

Now that it has come to the most critical moment, he cannot let down.

Use Shen Yue to clean up the termites in the upper residential area of ​​​​the Oasis, and at the same time dig out all the secrets of the Oasis battleship to ensure the upgrade direction of the battleship in his hands in the future.

After reaching a cooperation agreement with Shen Yue, the two quickly left the special restaurant one after the other.

Leaving the cafeteria, we came to the deserted street.

On the empty streets, there were only dark figures behind the curtains of the houses and the gazes through the gaps.

Lin Feng narrowed his eyes slightly and felt that at least five pairs of eyes were staring at the two of them, from far to near, with the farthest one being more than a hundred meters away.

"Let's go to the side, there are spies here!"
