Wasteland: My items are infinitely upgraded.

Chapter 236 VIP Box, Cheongsam Beauty Deal
Li Mingquan's affectionate invitation surprised Lin Feng a little.

After all, at such a critical moment, there must be a more important reason for being willing to give out the extremely precious second-level evolutionary meat as a gift invitation.

But now the Li family has the upper hand.

As long as you win a first-level competition, you can get ten points. In the subsequent second-level competition, you can secure victory by winning two out of three games.

At this moment in the arena, the Li family, who took the initiative, should not have been so anxious, and even seemed a little panicked.

There must be other reasons for Li Mingquan's actions.

Lin Feng returned to his rest room and put the Oasis key he had kept on him into the branded armor. He then handed the high-explosive rapid-fire cannon to the other party, set the automatic guard mode, and then left the church area.

He came outside and followed a Li family servant who was only at the initial stage of evolution, into the street.

Li Mingquan invited him warmly. Even if Lin Feng intended to go for the meeting to test the other party's strength and the reason why he was so anxious to meet him, he would not risk carrying the Oasis key with him.

If the other party has some trump card or means that can make me lose consciousness without bloodshed, then I will become the culprit for the loss of the oasis.

After all, after learning that the Li family has close ties with the Life Farm in the Holy City, Lin Feng has to be more cautious.

Ding Yi can find a way to deal with the Rock Horned Horse, so there is no reason why Life Farm, which has been deeply engaged in the evolution of alien species for many years, has no countermeasures.

If the second-level Rock Horse Warrior can be made to lose its combat effectiveness, it will only be more effective for myself.

Leaving the secret key in the upper civilian area and entrusting it to the intelligent system of the power armor for safekeeping is actually safer than carrying it yourself.

What's more, there is the support of rapid-fire cannon.

At this moment, the Shangmin District has indeed become much quieter today after the turmoil last night. Among the nine Shangmin who disappeared, many were from the Li family, and their leader even had the strength of the middle stage of the first level and had some prestige among the Shangmin.

After this incident, the atmosphere became panic-stricken. Many people returned home after lunch and did not dare to linger and walk on the streets as they did in the past.

Zheng Yanying's team, after detaining the spies who attempted to destroy the giant lens last night, searched the rooms of many upper-class people overnight.

As many as thirty traitors were uncovered.

Among them were undercover agents sent by the Li family and others, as well as descendants of Shangmin who were instigated and bewitched.

In short, after this severe crackdown, the upper class has a clearer understanding of their actual status and strength. They are no longer as high and mighty or arrogant as before, and they are all keeping a low profile.

So Lin Feng followed the Li family and came to the Oasis Canteen smoothly, and quickly arrived at the special canteen on the third floor.

When he came here again, Lin Feng was not the one who treated the guests, but the one who was invited, so his treatment was naturally better.

As soon as he walked into the entrance of the third floor, a lady of etiquette in a light-colored cheongsam came to greet him. The moment she saw Lin Feng, she bent down and said softly:

"Consul Lin, please come this way."

Lin Feng's title of consul is just an honorary position, otherwise there would be no word of honor, so when he meets others, he is usually only called leader or sir.

Not even worthy of the title of consul.

Now that I’m treated like this as soon as we meet, it seems like there will be a lot of ceremony in the future.

The beautiful lady in cheongsam who came to receive the guests actually had the strength of the late first stage.

Not only that, it is also the upper limit of the first-level evolution, comparable to the existence of a high acolyte or a high priest.

Reached the nineteenth level of evolution!
Even in the residential area of ​​the Oasis, it is extremely rare to find creatures at this level of evolution.

Lin Feng narrowed his eyes slightly and noticed that the ordinary waitress who had received him before was following behind the cheongsam woman. Although she was well-maintained, it could be seen from her deep eyes and the charming smiles and frowns as she accompanied him that she was not a young person in her twenties or thirties.

This woman is at least seventy or eighty years old.

It's just that he holds a high position, has a good life and is well maintained.

In the entire oasis, apart from the second-level archon, there is only one person with such a situation and status...

It is estimated that there is only the canteen manager, who is also the general manager responsible for supplying meals to Shangmin District.

Knowing the daily food needs of nearly a thousand people, the daily consumption of evolutionary meat can be as much as tons.

The chef is the one who eats the most fat.

There are many natural benefits.

However, such an important position is held by a woman. It seems that she is more than just a pretty face, and must have other outstanding qualities.

Only in this way can we move between various forces, satisfy their interests and appetites, and maintain a stable balance.

Soon, with the other party's perfectly curved hips, she led Lin Feng to the deepest part of the corridor, which was also the highest place in the residential area of ​​the oasis.

A prominent location in the special dining hall on the third floor.

This place overlooks the entire Shangmin District streets from above, and is almost level with Oasis Garden.

It is equivalent to a VIP suite in a box room.

After the beautiful girl in cheongsam pushed open the door for Lin Feng, he found that the layout inside was indeed different.

The other private rooms were only eight or nine square meters in size, and could only accommodate five or six people dining at the same time, while the VIP room in front of him was over thirty square meters.

A large round table is four meters long and can seat twenty people.

There is also an extremely rare LCD TV next to it, as well as a row of small sofas where you can watch movies or sing Karaoke.

If he hadn't been carrying the armor-piercing cannon, Lin Feng would have even thought that he had returned to the old Earth, before the catastrophe broke out.

When I was working in civil engineering, I often followed the supervisor to drink with the client and went to restaurants every day.

The interior soft-packing style is basically the same as the old times, but the dishes on the table are very wasteland style.

Braised giant lizard, fried round-headed worms, a very rare snake soup, and canned food as a side dish.

In addition, there is the evolved meat of rock wildebeest, which is a very local specialty.

What surprised Lin Feng was that this time some extremely exquisite vegetarian dishes were also served.

For example, when stir-frying Chinese cabbage hearts, only the tenderest cabbage hearts are selected and fried with expensive animal fats, giving it a unique flavor.

There are also young sprouts of yam bean, etc.

These things themselves are not of much value, and they are also available in the cafeteria hall downstairs.

But compared to the cheapness of the raw materials, the fact that only the best-tasting parts were used shows that the organizer of this banquet was extremely attentive.

From this we can also see that Li Mingquan, who is sitting in the main seat, is determined to win this negotiation.

At this time, the VIP box was booked by Li Mingquan just to entertain Lin Feng.

Seeing the main person coming, the other party stood up enthusiastically and said:
"Finally, we meet again. Chief Lin has taken the position of Archon, holding the fate of the oasis in his hands. He is very busy and it is much harder to hire him than before."

Lin Feng smiled and nodded:
"Everyone at Oasis has entrusted me with such an important task. I, Lin, dare not neglect it, fearing that any mistake will plunge the Oasis into turmoil."

Li Mingquan smiled in agreement:
"Please sit down. I spent a fortune to invite you here! Here, this braised level 20 rockhorn horse meat. One bite will restore you to health."

As he spoke, before Lin Feng sat down completely, Li Mingquan took the initiative to take a large piece of braised pork elbow on the table, tore off a large piece of crystal clear skin and meat, and put it in Lin Feng's bowl.

Then he gave a piece to the cheongsam woman who slowly sat down beside him.

In the end, I only took a small piece for myself.

Lin Feng glanced at the woman who sat down beside him with some surprise, then returned his gaze to the braised pork elbow in the bowl.

The braised meat pieces exude a rich aroma.

A lot of spices such as star anise and cinnamon are added.

In this wasteland era, snow-white refined salt is a luxury. The cost of getting so many seasonings is even not less than the first-level evolved meat.

It’s indeed luxurious.

The energy contained in the piece of meat made Lin Feng's appetite grow and he couldn't help swallowing his saliva.

Li Mingquan was right. This was a standard piece of Level 20 Rockhorn Evolution meat, and it was still very fresh. It didn't have the mushy texture of being cooked after being frozen for a long time and damaging the cell fiber structure. It had probably died no more than a year ago.

Unlike many of the high-level rockhorn evolution meat that Lin Feng had obtained before, after being cooked, it could only be dehydrated and made into jerky.

You can't use them to make dishes with rich taste.

Seeing that Lin Feng was staring at the piece of meat in the bowl but was reluctant to pick up his chopsticks, Li Mingquan decisively swallowed the meat in his own bowl first.

The cheongsam woman next to her also started eating.

Seeing that both of them had no major problems, Lin Feng also started to taste it.

In fact, for a second-level strongman, the cells in his body have evolved to a certain strength and have long achieved continuous replication and division, just like cancer cells, with no upper limit to division.

Therefore, it is also called the immortal body.

Trying to murder a second-level person by poisoning their food is simply unrealistic.

Because any toxins or abnormalities will be directly reacted during chewing in the mouth and will no longer have the chance to invade the internal organs.

Unless a large amount of toxin is injected directly into the blood circulation, it can quickly paralyze the muscles and spread throughout the body.

Lin Feng knew that the other party had something to ask for and would not play such a trick.

While he was savoring the free level 20 Rock Hornet evolution meat, Li Mingquan, who had finished eating, took out a dark yellow bottle from the cabinet.

Lin Feng took a glance and found that it was a rare white wine, or more precisely, a high-proof brandy.

He had tried this wine a long time ago. Compared with traditional liquor, it was not very good. However, its advantage was that it had a fruity aroma. If mixed with Sprite or iced black tea, the stimulation of 40 or 50 degree alcohol would not be felt, and it would be fine to drink several glasses in a row.

It is easy to have a blackout during the next scene.

But this is for ordinary people. Even if a second-level evolver ingests the water of life at 98 degrees, he is only injecting a sedative into the rapidly dividing evolutionary cells.

Li Mingquan then introduced:

"This is a treasure I found in the Holy City. It's a hundred-year-old wine. It used to be called brandy. Because the temperature difference between day and night there is so big, it's very sweet."

"This bottle of wine is worth ten kilograms of late-stage evolutionary meat, which can be converted into five thousand points. At one thousand per cup, it's worth a fortune!"

As he said that, he filled Lin Feng's glass.

After the three people at the table filled their glasses, Li Mingquan raised his glass and introduced to Lin Feng:

"This is Ms. Rong Yan, the person behind the Oasis Restaurant and the owner of this hotel."

"At the same time, Madam Rong is from the upper civilian area of ​​the oasis. She is one of the few who can break through the middle stage of the first level and enter the late stage of the first level, thus escaping the fate of being sacrificed."

Lin Feng was slightly moved. He had already guessed about the previous content, but the experience that followed was extremely rare.

A strong person like this deserves respect.

Lin Feng then raised his glass and paused for a moment.

Those who can stand out from the upper residential area of ​​​​the Oasis are all geniuses among geniuses.

After all, although people here have enough food and clothing, the resources for evolution are pitifully scarce.

The church is raising the best pigs instead of cultivating and selecting the strong, so the upper class areas with the best treatment are actually cages where the upward path is locked.

It was precisely because of this that Lin Feng resolutely rejected the church's proposal.

Rong Yan was able to break free from it, which shows that he is definitely not an ordinary person. No wonder he was able to take control of the extremely important cafeteria later, and his evolution level even reached the upper limit of the first level, level 19.

Li Mingquan then introduced and praised Fan Linfeng's background information to Rong Yan.

After introducing each other, Li Mingquan said with a little emotion:
"It's no coincidence that we meet today, but rather it's because of a common need."

“I wish all of us can get the results we want!”

Lin Feng raised his eyebrows. He heard regret and determination in Li Mingquan's words. This was not the mentality that the Li family, who was in a dominant position, should have.

After the three of them raised their glasses and drank it all, this special banquet began to get down to business.

Li Mingquan handed Lin Feng another large piece of level 20 evolutionary meat and said:

"Eat more! We can have so much evolutionary meat this time thanks to Madam Rong's generosity."

Lin Feng narrowed his eyes and put down his chopsticks.

Li Mingquan continued:

"Chief Lin is now in a high position of power. He almost has the final say in the oasis..."

"Actually, the matter between my family and the church is a completely private internal matter. It was just blown out of proportion by someone with ulterior motives, and it's now affecting the people below."

"Everyone is panicking and wants to find a way out in advance so that they can survive the turbulent changes."

"right?"

Lin Feng nodded calmly.

He has seen this kind of scene many times.

Li Mingquan coughed twice upon seeing this.

Rong Yan, who was standing by, immediately understood what was going on. She took out a piece of sealed dried meat from under the table and handed it to Lin Feng:

"This is all the hard work I've put into saving. I hope Governor Lin will accept it."

I felt the piece of meat emitting a level 20 aura.

It looks like it weighs more than ten kilograms.

Worth tens of thousands.

Lin Feng looked at Li Mingquan beside him with an expressionless face.

The latter then spoke:

"Mrs. Rong has an older daughter and a younger son. The younger son was ignorant and made some minor mistakes, so he was taken into custody by the church."

"I'd like you to come out and help me."

"Besides that, Madam Rong hopes that after this matter is over, her children can follow your convoy to the Holy City."

Lin Feng frowned slightly:

"If my guess is correct, Madam Rong's daughter and son should all be upper-class people. How could they leave here?"

Li Mingquan shrugged:

"You and I both know that no matter who the Oasis ultimately belongs to, the Upper Citizen District will no longer have any reason to exist."

"Their fate will only be more miserable than that of the wasteland hunters and wasteland dwellers below."

Lin Feng thought for a moment.

Rong Yan added decisively:

"After the matter is completed, there will be a late stage 1 evolutionary meat and a small amount of level 20 evolutionary meat as compensation."

Lin Feng thought about it and agreed.

He had originally thought of taking advantage of the chaos to abduct a group of nobles as compensation for these days.

After discussing one thing, everyone ate a few more rounds.

Rong Yan then stood up and left, leaving only Li Mingquan and Lin Feng.

The former then spoke with a serious expression, saying something that shocked Lin Feng deeply:
"Tell me, if I betray my family now and then join you, what do you think the chances are that the church won't liquidate me?"
