End of the World: My Items Can Be Upgraded Infinitely.

Chapter 222 Return, Fourth-level Realm King, Breakout Plan
Lin Feng dived straight down at a speed exceeding Mach 4, away from the middle layer of the atmosphere which was forty to fifty kilometers high.

The speed of the fall was so fast that even the nearby scenery reflected back became a stream of afterimages.

After diving for half a minute, Lin Feng returned from the mesosphere to the safe stratosphere, and then dived into the turbulent troposphere without stopping.

At this time, he was less than six or seven kilometers above the ground, and could already see the faint flickering lights on the Loess Plateau in the north.

It was not until then that Lin Feng dared to turn around and look back to confirm that the dark shadow from outer space above the thermosphere was not chasing him.

But the crisis was not over. At this moment, his falling speed had reached thousands of meters per second. In five seconds, he would fall heavily to the ground.

The impact force caused by this speed cannot be compensated even if the surface it hits is liquid.

What's more, there is not even a reservoir to be seen within the area of ​​dozens of kilometers.

You must slow down as quickly as possible and keep your body steady!
In addition to the membrane wings that were already vibrating in the opposite direction, Lin Feng raised the ion laser cannon in his hand, switched to the level 29 armor-piercing cannon mode, then aimed at the ground that was approaching his head at a high speed and pulled the trigger.

The reverse thrust of the membrane wings can only stop the current speed from accelerating, but it is difficult to slow down the deceleration.

If it really hit the ground at a speed of one thousand meters per second, even if Lin Feng was wearing the Flying Tiger Armor and had a third-stage physique, he would be seriously injured.

The ion laser cannon fires in the form of light beams, and its recoil is almost zero. Although the electromagnetic cannon has a decent recoil, it requires time to charge and has a too slow rate of fire, so it can only rely on the powerful recoil brought by the armor-piercing cannon for reverse thrust.

This will slow down the falling speed!

Lin Feng wasn't sure if this would work, so he could only try his best in the current situation.

Fortunately, the two-way propulsion force generated by the gunpowder explosion of the armor-piercing cannon caused Lin Feng's body to slow down. Although he was still falling at a high speed, his speed was obviously slowed down.

Using the recoil of the artillery to slow down is effective!

Lin Feng immediately fired several shots in one breath, each time with a force of more than a ton, hammering heavily on his body, bringing a strong sense of weightlessness.

Greatly slowed down the falling speed.

Combined with the power of the second-stage orange membrane wings, the speed was reduced from Mach 3 or 4 to below Mach 1.

When Lin Feng was only two hundred meters away from the ground, he finally managed to stabilize his body!

At this time, the uninhabited Loess Plateau under his feet had been hit by armor-piercing cannons, leaving several huge pits with a diameter of more than ten meters and a depth of three or four meters.

The shock wave and heat wave generated by the explosion blew on Lin Feng's cheek.

And gradually a few reminders emerged before my eyes.
It also made Lin Feng breathe a sigh of relief:

"We have left the sensing range of the fourth-level life form, the danger is over!"

"The orange membrane wings of the lv29 Flying Tiger Armor's second-stage are severely worn, and the durability is less than 30%. Do you want to consume the second-stage upgrade energy to repair it?"

Lin Feng, still frightened, turned his head to take a look. The membranous wings on his back were creaking. Many joints had aged due to the high-speed impact, and strange noises were constantly coming out.

The lift support it can provide is also constantly decreasing, and it will soon be scrapped and lose its ability to fly.

So Lin Feng used the second-level upgrade energy he had plundered from killing the second-level wind-wing insect before to repair the tattered membrane wings.

As the golden energy covered and enveloped the second-order membrane wings, it took only a few seconds to repair them, as if they were brand new.

Lin Feng, feeling relaxed, did not hesitate for too long and flew directly towards the front-line base dozens of kilometers away.

Two minutes later, Lin Feng, speeding at a speed of Mach 1, successfully arrived at the outskirts of the front-line air force base.

From afar, he saw several 20mm close-in defense guns installed on the high walls of the base, which were specifically used to attack nearby high-speed moving units.

So Lin Feng landed on the ground several kilometers away and started walking.

When he arrived at the gate of the base along the road, he met Shen Jie who had already arrived.

At this time, he was holding two pairs of second-order membrane wings and negotiating with the guards on both sides of the gate wall.

Soon, General Chen and his party walked out of the safely landed transport plane. After learning that Lin Feng and Shen Jie had jumped out of the plane mid-flight to intercept the second-order wind-wing insects attacking from behind, they realized that they needed to set out to find the two.

So when Lin Feng arrived, General Chen had already sent someone to inform the guards to open the door and let him in, so as to prevent the misunderstanding from further deepening.

With General Chen coming forward to explain and give orders, Lin Feng and his companions successfully passed the checkpoint and entered the air force base.

Now, except for a hundred or so fighter jets and dozens of strategic bombers left in the Federal Air Force, the rest of its air force has all suffered devastating blows.

Especially the low-altitude support helicopters, which were harassed by tens of thousands of first-level green-winged insects. At the beginning of the apocalypse, dozens of them crashed every day.

Even when the Zerg Queen crawls to the surface and commands countless swarms of Zerg to fight, she will also control hundreds of blue-winged Zerg to block the surrounding airspace.

Whether it is a fighter jet or a missile, it will be blocked by the bodies of this group of green-winged insects and will not be able to break through this thick and dense layer of defense.

In addition, more than a dozen second-order wind-wing insects were sent to patrol continuously at an altitude of thousands of meters to ensure that human supersonic missiles could not hit the queen mother.

The Federation once planned a nuclear bombing and decapitation plan in the north, but the problem was that neither fighter jets nor hypersonic missiles could break through the Zerg air units' interception and blocking.

Among them was a nuclear bomb with a yield of 100,000 tons, which eventually exploded three kilometers in front of the Queen Mother. In addition to destroying half of the low-level Zerg and half of the urban area, it did not cause much effective damage to the high-level Queen Mother.

The latter bounced back and hid in an insect nest hundreds of meters underground, making the only remaining weapon in human hands unusable.

It was only after discovering that bombing and guidance were useless that the federal military gave up on replenishing its air force and instead focused its military industrial capacity on air defense equipment.

Especially the anti-aircraft machine guns. When facing the fierce tide of black-spined insects, the flat-fire machine guns are more effective than any rifles or machine guns.

After Lin Feng entered the base and saw the few fighter planes on the runway, he asked about his confusion. General Chen walked half a body length behind him and answered his questions patiently and in detail.

After listening, Lin Feng nodded, and under the other party's instructions, he met up with more than 200 subordinates who had just got off the plane.

After landing safely, they took the weapons and equipment in the accompanying passenger plane and, under the arrangement of General Chen, temporarily settled in the military camp next to the base.

Because it was a former air force dormitory, its scale and facilities are much more luxurious and comfortable than ordinary military barracks. It is full of small single-room apartments with complete furniture.

However, these are arranged for the members of the second-level regiment. Due to the limited number of rooms, the two hundred elite soldiers are still arranged in the ordinary eight-person room next door.

Seeing that Lin Feng and Shen Jie returned safely, no one showed much excitement on their faces.

In their view, these two represent the two strongest forces in the Saviors. If they can't even deal with them, then this mission will be declared a failure.

So everyone's attention was quickly attracted by the two pairs of folded second-order membranous wings that Shen Jie brought back.

Lin Feng ordered the latter to distribute the membrane wings to the thirty-five members of the gene regiment, so that they could obtain orange-quality second-order membrane wings like Shen Jie to improve their flying ability.

In the future, with the help of the lv29 electromagnetic cannon replica, this team will be invincible in the stratosphere within kilometers.

Even if there are more second-order wind-wing insects, they cannot break through the electromagnetic blockade zone formed by the magnetic storm bomb.

But in the mesosphere above the stratosphere, and the thermosphere outer space above it, Lin Feng estimated that unless he reached the peak of the third level, or half a step to the fourth level, he would have no chance of setting foot there.

While thinking, he fixed his eyes on the two women at the end of the dormitory building.

Long Yi, who was walking behind Liu Yueqi, keenly noticed Lin Feng's gaze.

There was a hint in his eyes.

So he said to the girl beside him:

"Go back and rest first. We have some important things to do tomorrow. Lin Feng and I need to talk about the membranous wings of the second-order wind-wing insects and the future mission plan."

Through casual conversation along the way, Liu Yueqi already knew that Longyi was a researcher brought by Lin Feng to the team. He was proficient in the physiological structure and social habits of the Zerg and had made great achievements in Zerg research.

Liu Yueqi nodded and returned to the dormitory.

Then Longyi followed Lin Feng into the luxurious apartment that General Chen had arranged for him.

As soon as the door was closed, Long waved his hand and released a stream of spiritual energy that covered the two of them.

"Go ahead. It's safe here for now. Even if there are any electronic devices, they are blocked." Lin Feng removed the Flying Tiger Armor and sat down on the bed. He threw the ion laser cannon on his back next to the Tiger Tooth Chain Saw Sword, and took a long breath...

He pointed to the ceiling above his head, his voice trembling slightly:
"After I obtained the membrane wings of the second-level wind-winged insect, I seemed to be called by something and flew directly to the middle layer above the stratosphere..."

"Then, I saw a dark shadow suspended in outer space."

“That thing…”

Long Yi frowned, and instantly understood what Lin Feng had gone through, and sighed:

"That's one of the fourth-order royal families of the Zerg..."

"The King of the Realm who is in charge of transporting the Zerg across borders."

"According to the image in your human mythology, it is more like a giant beast in the sky, Leviathan."

"Like the Spine Zerg, the World Zerg are not the original Zerg race born on the Zerg home planet, but a cosmic civilization that evolved naturally on gaseous planets like Jupiter and Saturn in the solar system."

"Because the planet has a large mass and low density, most life forms on these gaseous planets are large and slow-moving, like whales in the oceans of the blue planet."

“The interior of a gaseous planet is an organic liquid ocean.”

"The Zerg in the later world were defeated by the Zerg God and surrendered to our Queen Mother. After merging, they gradually became an important part of the Zerg."

"Jie Shen Star is also the last battle for the unification of our home galaxy. After completing the conquest of the Jie Zerg, we will also gain the ability to conquer other galaxies."

"They are born with the ability to fold space, and their bodies can accommodate a huge material space!"

"The hydrogen storage stomach sacs in the bodies of the Zerg today come from the genetic ability of the Zerg. It is a developed organ that can adjust the air pressure in the body at any time and adapt to the environment of different planets."

"You are lucky. The Zerg are not very aggressive, and they are not combat-type Zerg. They are a supporting group among the Zerg."

"This fourth-level Realm King should be the one who brought our Queen Mother here. After that, he has been staying in the outer space of Blue Star, absorbing sunlight and accumulating energy, waiting for the birth of the fourth-level insect king, and then leading the remaining insects of Blue Star to fly to the next colony planet."

"Just treat it as a living biological space battleship. In its eyes, there are only beings of the same level or food that is thousands of meters in size."

As he spoke, Long looked at Lin Feng:
"With your small body, you are just like a grain of sand in its eyes. As long as you don't try to fly too close to it and get caught by the worms parasitic on its body, you shouldn't be in any danger."

After hearing Long Yi's explanation, the latter did not show any relief for surviving the disaster. Lin Feng's slightly gloomy expression became even more solemn:
"But at that time, this fourth-level life form named King Kai was holding a two-kilometer-long silver unidentified object in its mouth. I suspect it was a spaceship..."

After Lin Feng expressed his doubts, it was Ling Yi's turn to show a look of surprise. She asked in disbelief:
"Are you sure? Could it be that the reflection is wrong? The Zerg can't possibly build such a large machine!"

Lin Feng looked up and stared at Ling Yi:

"It's dark now, and there's only dim moonlight in outer space. The unidentified object that looks like a spaceship is emitting silver light by itself."

After confirming it again and again, Long Yi pinched his brows...

After a while of thinking and speculation, several possibilities are given:

"If that thing is really an interstellar spaceship, it must be from other ancient civilizations in the solar system, such as Martians, Venusians, or other Zerg branches, who are currently mining resources on other planets in the solar system."

"The ancient civilizations that remain on these planets may flee to the Blue Planet in spaceships and be intercepted by King Kai."

"Either this spaceship is a space traveler in the Orion Arm that accidentally entered the solar system and wanted to resupply on the Blue Planet, but unfortunately encountered King Kai."

"As for the last possibility, this spaceship came here specifically to search for the Blue Planet. It is very likely that it is one of the civilizations that once left the solar system, such as the dinosaur civilization that existed on the Blue Planet 65 million years ago!"

"They had to leave their home planet for some reason and wandered in the universe. After tenaciously surviving, they now want to return to the place of their birth, complete their own race genes, and complete the fourth-level promotion."

"Sixty-five million years! That's enough time for their descendants to evolve into a new gene pool..."

"The first two are meaningless, but the latter one is interesting."

As he spoke, his tone became excited:
"When we arrived, we used the dark energy that overflowed from the space-time wormhole to cover the entire solar system to prevent the Zerg invasion, but this was discovered by the local supervisor."

"If this spaceship, no, it's more likely an interstellar battleship, came specifically for the Blue Planet..."

"The conflict between humans and insects on Blue Planet is likely to be interfered by new forces, making the situation even more chaotic."

“But for us, this is a great opportunity to take advantage of the situation!”

"The addition of a fourth-order life form from another race can contain the fourth-order royal family in space and create a certain window of time for our Queen Mother's hunting plan."

"I originally planned to use the genes of the scarlet beetle to lure the Scarlet King of the Scarlet Clan to come and muddy the waters..."

"It's really a godsend opportunity now. We also happened to encounter the battle to defend the federal capital, and the Zerg Queen is gathered here."

After listening to Long Yi's speculation about the space situation, the solemn expression on Lin Feng's face eased a little, and he nodded and said:

"Let's hope so..."

"But the plan to lure the Red King that you just mentioned must continue to be implemented."

"Not only that, including the dragon civilization we speculated before, we must also use gene fusion technology to cultivate dragon warriors first, help them enter the third level as soon as possible, and start the artistic conception trial, so as to trigger the fourth-level dragon king."

"This way, we can disrupt the situation as much as possible and help me break through to the fourth stage!"

The reason why Ling Shuyan was not allowed to conduct research on the red beetle was mainly because Lin Feng had not yet entered the third stage at that time, and according to the original plan, it would take at least more than a year to be promoted to the late third stage.

If he attracted the fourth-level cosmic life in advance, Lin Feng would not even have the power to protect himself, and the risks would obviously outweigh the benefits.

As the rescue plan to the north was launched, they faced more than 20 Zerg Queens, and even a large number of third-order king spiny worms would appear in ten days...

The speed at which the situation developed instantly accelerated as Lin Feng killed the Zerg Queen.

He needed external forces to contain the fourth-level royal family of the Zerg and provide cover for his continuous killing of high-level queens, even if the cost of doing so would attract more enemies.

But as long as Lin Feng can successfully enter the fourth stage, there will be room for maneuver in everything in the future.

Therefore, the benefits of summoning a fourth-order life form currently outweigh the cost.

Ling nodded slightly, agreeing with Lin Feng's opinion:
"I will take care of this. Don't be too anxious about advancing to the fourth level. If you are really a mixed-blood, and your bloodline comes from the cosmic life, you have the potential to be a god above the sixth level..."

"Then it is not difficult for you to advance to the fourth level. Unlike humans, a low-level race that has not yet produced a fourth-level life form, you need to pay a huge price to find your own path in the universe."

Lin Feng nodded and said no more.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

At the same time, General Chen's voice came:

"City Lord Lin, here is the breakout plan formulated by the Federation Headquarters. There are some tasks that need to be completed by you and the members of the Salvation Army."

"We will put it into action tomorrow. If you are free now, can you come and contact us to learn more?"

Lin Feng glanced at Long Yi, who raised his hand and removed the energy shield covering the two of them.

Then Lin Feng stood up and replied:
"Got it. You arrange for the leading soldiers downstairs. I will take the commander of the team to find out later."

"Thank you very much!"

After General Chen left, Ling Yi found a plan left by the other party outside the door, glanced through it, and handed it to Lin Feng who had changed into combat uniform:
"They want you to deal with a Level 3 Early Queen Mother in the northwest of the capital."

"It seems that our chance has arrived so soon!"

Lin Feng raised the corners of his mouth slightly, walked into the corridor, and shouted towards the dark dormitory corridor:
"Leaders of all regiments, captains of the late second stage, and commanders of the combat corps, step out!"

"Follow me to attend the mission meeting, understand the current situation, and formulate a battle plan!"

In the future, we will unify all the major civilizations in the solar system and establish the Sun God Clan.
