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

Chapter 227 Upgrading War Armor, the True Meaning of Binding Equipment

Without the protection of the golden neck guard, the queen's entire giant insect brain was exposed.

Lin Feng could see the deepest part of the neck through the cracked surface, revealing the ruby-like amber brain marrow, like an exquisite piece of glass art.

And its identification data showed that it contained 5,000 spiritual energy and only one point of durability...

Lin Feng couldn't help but feel scared while being excited. Fortunately, he didn't make a big fuss before, so as not to accidentally destroy this precious golden-quality biological material, which is also an extremely rare spiritual material.

However, how to remove it from the skull and preserve it intact has become a big problem at the moment.

The underground environment is extremely harsh, and soon several queens will arrive with a huge swarm of insects...

So Lin Feng planned to let Longyi control the red beetle and carry it to a safe area in the rear, away from the battlefield.

When he turned around, Long Yi had already cleared the deformed limbs from the bodies of Liu Yi and others, and at the same time, he had also dissolved the alienated Zerg genes in the cell nucleus, fundamentally purifying the pollution brought by the radiation from the divine realm.

Then she walked up to Lin Feng with a serious look on her face:

"Fortunately, the sacrificial summoning ritual was destroyed in time. If the statue had been allowed to descend completely, the influence of the hive mind would have been more than just this, and even I would not have been saved."

"Although they have been rescued, they have been severely damaged due to the consumption of the deformed tissue and the removal of infected tissue cells..."

"Even if I drink the second-level insect egg nutrient solution to replenish myself, it will be difficult to recover to my full combat condition in at least the next half day."

Lin Feng frowned slightly. He understood the worry revealed in Long's tone.

The temporary loss of this group of top fighting forces of the Savior Army, especially Shen Jie's unexpected coma, has forced them to now consider how to deal with the upcoming invasion of multiple Queen Mothers.

"long time……"

"The several queen mothers nearby will probably not risk going out in person. At most, they will rely on the insect swarms under their command to surround the enemy."

"The Queen Mother shares the spiritual space, what's going on?"

Lin Feng made a brief analysis and asked.

A flash of golden light flashed across the eyes of the dragonfly:

"This is the second queen mother to die at the hands of humans, and it happened in the area ruled by the Northern Alliance, which has caused quite a stir."

"Plus, the strength of the Queen Mother of Yunxia Mountain is not low. Although she has not yet entered the third-order mid-stage, she ranks in the top 200, which is considered to be very advanced. Apart from the third-order mid-stage Queen Mother in the first echelon, she is currently a quasi-first-tier powerhouse."

"If humans can kill it, it also shows that your true strength has reached the mid-third stage..."

"So the Northern Alliance is privately discussing how to deal with your sudden rise. It is estimated that in a few hours, three or four early queens nearby will lead their Zergs to come and test and surround us."

"But you are right about one thing!"

Ling Yi changed the subject, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and revealed a contemptuous smile:
"Those queen mothers who have formed an alliance are now really afraid to take action themselves, because this guy..."

As he spoke, Long Yi pointed at the huge insect head that fell behind Lin Feng:
"Before it died, it announced to the public in the Queen Mother's spiritual world the information we knew about how to quickly behead her."

"But fortunately, the threat you three brought to it was big enough to make it forget to explore the surrounding area for a while, so I haven't been exposed yet."

"But now all the Queen Mothers know that there is a group of only dozens of human elite awakeners in the north, who have the powerful ability to go straight into the insect nest and kill the Queen Mother directly."

"At the same time, this group of human awakened troops knows very well how to target the Zerg Queen. They use clean and efficient means to directly cut off the source of the fire, cut off the biological nest that forms a symbiotic relationship with the Queen, and destroy the Queen's counterattack ability in advance."

After saying this, Long spread his hands, looking a little helpless:
"How should I put it? Half good and half bad..."

"It just so happens that we currently do not have the ability to kill the Queen Mother again in a short period of time, and they are like a frightened bird, so they will only send their second-level insect swarms to test us."

"but……"

"This also means that our plan to hunt the Queen Mother will be difficult to carry out. The Queen Mother, who is on guard, may not hesitate to summon the God's Domain to descend as soon as she senses our approaching surprise attack!"

"So as to buy time for your escape."

After listening to the pros and cons analysis of Lingyi...

Lin Feng took a deep breath and gently stroked the level 30 ion laser cannon in his hand, his eyes were extremely firm:
"That's fine. Since they only dare to send out the second-order insect swarm, it's a good opportunity to train the troops. I can promote all the 200 elite soldiers under my command to the second-order late awakened ones."

"As long as the number of top fighters increases, all the second-order Zerg will be annihilated one by one. Then the Queen Mother will be left alone. Even if she wants to activate the domain, she will have to see if she can be faster than my ion laser cannon!"

Battles on the surface are when long-range weapons can exert their greatest effect.

The lv30 ion laser cannon can be used for long-range consumption, and its replicas, the numerous armor-piercing cannons and electromagnetic cannons, can be regarded as a dimensionality reduction attack against the second-level Zerg, whether they are flying in the sky or running on the ground!
An existence that can sweep away everything!

Especially the ion laser cannon, with an attenuation-free strike range of ten kilometers, can achieve damage-free long-range consumption outside the influence range of the divine domain activated by the Queen Mother.

Until its health is depleted to the near-death stage, and then a thunderous strike is used to complete the final harvest.

In surface battles, Lin Feng has countless tactics to deal with high-level Zerg, which is one of the reasons why he chose to go north to provide assistance.

The environment here is relatively harsh and the soil is poor and hard.

When the Zerg Queen takes the initiative to attack, she has to break out of the ground and fight on the surface, becoming a living target under beyond-visual-range attacks!

At this moment, when Long Yi looked at the sci-fi laser weapon in Lin Feng's hand, he realized that he was worrying too much.

So he nodded and said:

"That's fine. As for this precious thing..."

"Just take them away. There's nothing worth staying here anyway. We also need to head to the other main nest of the Yunxialing Zerg to the west as soon as possible to recruit those leaderless Zerg swarms that have lost their command."

"And judging from the situation, the Queen Mother of Yunxia Mountain should have arranged the hatching nest for the second-level insect eggs in the main nest in the west."

Lin Feng hummed, and then asked about how to deal with the huge insect head behind him:
"Although most of this thing has been cut off, it still weighs several hundred tons. Can you summon a group of red beetles to help carry it out?"

Long Yi bent his index finger and pressed it against his chin, looking closely at the half of the insect head that was cut and torn off by Lin Feng. The hideous and unrecognizable face of the queen insect was soaked in a pool of blood, revealing the cross-section of the neck.

The golden neck guard that originally protected the brain had been broken into two halves by Lin Feng. The other half was still inside the shrunken insect head, which was more than ten meters in diameter, and contained a full ten cubic meters of the queen's brain.

It exists in the center of the entire insect brain and is the source of the Queen Mother's tremendous spiritual power.

Because of this, the Queen Mother's brain, which was originally protected by layers of protection, is actually extremely fragile. Even the slightest bump or scratch will leak out a large amount of mental energy, which will be wasted.

Therefore, the best way to ship it out now is to take the head away with it.

However, after releasing his mental power and using the state of infinite reproduction, he discovered that only one in a thousand of the red beetles in the insect nest remained. There were originally tens of thousands of them, but now there are only a few dozen left. Many of them are low-level red beetles that were urgently spawned when the Queen Mother of Yunxialing was fleeing.

It is nothing like the level 9 giant red beetle, which has a strong load-bearing capacity of more than 1 ton.

"You are to blame for this. When you came in, you fired electromagnetic cannons into the hive crazily, killing large numbers of low-level scarlet beetles. Now, there are not even hundreds of scarlet beetles to carry the beetle heads."

After explaining the situation, Long Yi said something contemptuous.

Lin Feng twitched the corner of his mouth. At that time, he saw that the Queen Mother wanted to escape, so he didn't think too much about it. He directly used the magnetic storm bomb to carry out saturation coverage and bombing.

However, he did not expect that the team members behind him would also learn to launch magnetic storm bombs together, electrocuting all the low-level insects in the huge mother nest, except for a dozen second-level tiger-spine insects.

"Can you cut down the size of this beetle? As long as it can be reduced to about 100 tons, I can lift it and carry it away."

After being promoted to the third stage, Lin Feng, with the addition of 1,500 points of physical attribute value, already possessed a basic strength of up to 150 tons, almost more than twice that of the peak period of the second stage.

When fully exerted, it can reach nearly two hundred tons.

Although he was unable to lift the huge insect head weighing seven or eight hundred tons, he could still lift it easily if it were just the golden neck guard and the queen's brain wrapped and protected inside.

After hearing Lin Feng's proposal, Ling Yi nodded after considering for a moment:

"Of course you can, but you have to be careful. Without the protection of the external insect head flesh, the internal skull alone cannot provide any buffering effect. The slightest bump will damage the internal crystal structure."

Now that things have come to this, the only way is to leave the mother nest as soon as possible. After taking a deep breath, Lin Feng nodded in agreement.

Ling Yi immediately stepped forward and inserted his hands into the queen's torn head, absorbing the remaining biomass in the flesh and blood while releasing the power of artistic conception to decompose the flesh and blood other than the golden neck guard.

Lin Feng took advantage of the free time to pick up the cracked golden neck guard at his feet and came to the entrance of the insect nest.

The remaining twelve members of the second-stage late-stage regiment were here to kill the tiger-backed insect guards in the insect nest.

Because they were hundreds of meters apart, they were least affected by the divine realm. Only the genes in their chromosomes were slightly contaminated. They did not have large areas of deformed Zerg limbs on their bodies like himself and Liu Yi.

So after the "purification" treatment, Longyi has recovered as before and is still in a conscious state. However, mentally, he has become a little depressed after experiencing the terrifying will of the hive.

Seeing Lin Feng coming, they all stood up and saluted.

Lin Feng waved his hand:

"Rest for a while. We will set off soon and you will have to support the two general leaders."

Then Lin Feng easily tore off the giant jaws from the corpse of the second-order tiger-back worm, integrated it into the tattered Flying Tiger Armor on his body, and used particle control to repair it.

Previously, due to the energy radiation from the divine realm, the organic matter in the Flying Tiger Armor was distorted and alienated. After it turned into deformed insect limbs, it lost its energy source and due to the defects of its own structure, it exhausted its vitality and died.

However, due to this wave of divine radiation impact, this level 29 Flying Tiger Armor was severely damaged, and the durability of the armor dropped all the way to the last 2 points.

If Lin Feng had not used particles to control the artistic conception and made timely repairs, it might have been distorted and completely disintegrated under the radiation from the divine realm.

Now, after using up more than a dozen pairs of second-order orange giant jaws, the shattered Flying Tiger Armor was finally restored.

Then Lin Feng looked at the golden quality cervical guard he had been holding in his hand.

Although it is only half, the identification data shows that it is enough for the lv29 Flying Tiger Armor to upgrade to a higher level.

Because it has never been bound, this kind of cross-level upgrade does not require the killing of high-level life forms as a condition, but in terms of additional attributes and durability, it is much weaker than the bound equipment, and the upgrade potential depends entirely on the stacking of higher quality materials. Without materials, it is difficult to recover relying solely on energy.

The most important reason is that non-bound items cannot be copied in batches.

But there seems to be no need to copy the armor, so Lin Feng has never considered binding the armor.

In addition, the function of defensive equipment is too simple and is far less deadly and efficient than weapons.

Now after entering the third stage, you can bind a fourth piece of equipment.

Lin Feng is also considering whether to bind the Flying Tiger Armor as the fourth piece of equipment.

As for now, he plans to upgrade the Flying Tiger Armor to a golden quality armor.

"Queen Mother's Neck Bone, Broken Body, Gold Quality, Condition: Severely Damaged"

"Durability: 5/10, Defense 8k/10k"

"Evaluation: The golden material on the body of the third-level queen mother is the last resort to save her life. The material is extremely hard and can withstand temperatures of nearly ten thousand degrees. It can be used in the fusion upgrade of items or equipment to increase the strength of the equipment."

"It can be integrated into the lv29 Flying Tiger Armor to achieve a cross-level upgrade of the Flying Tiger Armor. There is a certain chance of awakening additional attributes. After binding it as equipment, it can achieve multi-attribute fusion upgrades and synthesize attributes of the corresponding level."

Lin Feng nodded slightly to confirm the fusion, and released the golden energy controlled by particles with his hands, covering only half of the golden neck guard and integrating into the Flying Tiger Armor he was wearing.

At this time, the remaining members of the regiment stationed in the wormhole outside the entrance, after realizing that the swarm of insects in the hive had lost command and order, came to the deepest mother nest to confirm the situation of the leader and the captains.

Lin Feng then asked them to cover the retreat of everyone in the mother nest, and then came to the side of Long Yi.

At this moment, the other half of the neck bone that wrapped the Queen Mother's brain had been stripped of all the flesh and brain tissue on the outside, revealing its true form of pure gold.

It is semicircular in shape, and contains a deep red oval object with a crystalline structure, which has a glassy luster, just like the raw stone from a red crystal cave.

Lin Feng took a quick glance and found that the attribute data of the Queen Mother's brain had not changed.

It seems that Longyi did not do anything.

Long Yi, who had concentrated his attention and was concentrating on completing the peeling, breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Lin Feng.

Noticing that the Flying Tiger Armor on Lin Feng was emitting a faint golden light, Long Yi asked:
"Hmm? Did you disassemble the other half of the internal skull and fuse it into the armor?"

Lin Feng nodded:
"Why? Is there any other use?"

Originally, Lin Feng was planning to integrate the neck guard into the lv29 Tiger Tooth Chainsaw Sword for a fusion upgrade, but doing so would consume the energy for a synchronous upgrade...

After weighing the pros and cons, Lin Feng decided that upgrading himself was more important.

Because it has been upgraded to lv31, the benefits brought by the improvement of its own attribute data are far greater than that of a lv30 tiger-tooth chainsaw sword that has been strengthened twice.

Moreover, he could use two pieces of equipment to upgrade Lin Feng's level alternately, and then feed back the equipment by easily killing enemies after his own strength improved...

This kind of upgrade idea is the fastest and best solution to become stronger under the current circumstances.

In this way, Lin Feng only needs to complete half of the upgrade conditions to reach the full level!
When the two pieces of equipment are upgraded to level 34, it means that Lin Feng can directly enter the late third stage, and the cost required is only half of the original normal upgrade!
It was not until this moment that Lin Feng understood the most important significance of binding equipment to achieve synchronous upgrades!
Especially in the later stages, when beings of the same level become rarer and harder to kill, the more equipment Lin Feng binds, the lower the cost of upgrading will be.

Now with the addition of the dreadnoughts, it means that Lin Feng only needs to upgrade them to lv32, and he can reach lv39 himself!

As time goes by, the conditions for upgrading yourself will become simpler and more convenient.

Even when you have nine pieces of equipment, you only need to kill nine beings of the same level to upgrade to the peak of the stage.

Now, with Long Yi's unintentional reminder, Lin Feng, who had noticed this, suppressed his inner excitement and continued to reply expressionlessly:

"My armor was distorted beyond recognition by the power released by the Divine Realm when I killed the Queen Mother just now, so I used this golden neck bone to repair and upgrade it."

Ling Yi did not notice Lin Feng's abnormality. He shrugged and looked at the Queen Mother's brain which was only half a skull left. Then he suggested:

"Leaving it exposed isn't a solution, why don't you just use it now?"

Lin Feng frowned slightly:

"How to use it? This thing is like glass, it can't be eaten, right? If you break it and then absorb it, you can only absorb one tenth of it. It's such a waste..."

"Didn't you say before that the Queen Mother's brain can serve as a biological secondary brain, acting as a reserve of additional spiritual energy?"

The scorpion nodded slightly:
"Yes, but that..."
