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

As Lin Feng drove the colonial mecha and appeared at the bow of the golden battleship, he instantly attracted countless eyes nearby.

The second-tier regiments in the Salvation Army and countless ordinary soldiers all cast admiring glances at him.

As the hatch of the colonial mecha slowly opened, Lin Feng's figure was revealed, and the shadow hanging over everyone's heads finally dissipated.

The leader of the Savior Army, their supreme commander, was not caught off guard by the Queen Mother's decapitation operation deep underground.

The mother nest in the deepest part of the ground, which had been blocked by Liu Yi, Shen Jie and others, became the main reason for everyone's suspicion.

What exactly happened inside? Why has the leader never shown up since the war?

For a time, people were in unrest and rumors were spreading.

Fortunately, Chen Yanyan came forward in time and summoned the six early-stage third-level strongmen in the team. She announced that Lin Feng was just injured and needed to rest. At the same time, she arranged them and quickly organized the manpower.

Go ahead and perform the cleanup mission for the battle.

At the same time, he led four armies to the remaining four Zerg territories in Minzhou, captured the Zerg nests there, and wiped out all the remaining Zerg swarms to prevent future troubles.

The remaining energetic teams were dispatched to ensure stability in Mingcheng.

Now, almost two days have passed, and the four armies that had gone out have basically returned, carrying full loads of supplies.

Fortunately, Chen Yanyan had already received the news that Lin Feng in the research ship had woken up successfully and met with Ling Shuyan and others who had just arrived.

So she stopped taking emergency measures.

In fact, there are many examples in history of great expeditions that fell apart and dispersed due to the unexpected death of the supreme commander.

Especially in today's apocalyptic era, the Zerg invasion also brings about the beginning of evolution, which infinitely enhances the effectiveness of personal force in war.

Lin Feng's artistic conception not only represents the only supreme leader of the Savior Army, but also means that he is the strongest awakener among all the Savior Army and even the entire human race.

If even he were to meet with misfortune and die in the action of killing the Zerg Queen, in a sense, it would mean that humans simply could not defeat the Zerg.

The establishment and significance of the Salvation Army would also be denied.

By then, people will inevitably be faced with a situation of panic.

Fortunately, Lin Feng woke up in time and recovered most of his original strength, which was enough to stabilize the current situation.

At this moment, as Lin Feng drove the colonial mecha in a form that went against common sense, he slowly descended from mid-air, instantly attracting the attention of all the Saviors in Mingcheng.

The colonial mecha weighing hundreds of tons and covered in golden armor shines with moonlight like a god descending from heaven under the full moon in the dark night.

After completing the descent, Lin Feng walked from the cockpit to the bow of the golden warship, which was dozens of meters high. Dressed in the golden warship, he looked down at the tens of thousands of soldiers at his feet.

Then he slowly opened his mouth and said:

"There is one final battle in this great expedition to the south!"

"And this final battle is also the most intense and dangerous one!"

"The leaders of the second-tier regiments may have heard that an accident occurred during the battle of Mingcheng during the decapitation operation against the Five Emperors Alliance."

"That's right, because there are not only five mid-stage third-order Zergs inside! There is also one more, a third-order spiny worm that has never existed before, called the third-order king spiny worm!"

"Its appearance disrupted the original action plan, putting the decapitation mission in jeopardy. Although we defeated the Zerg once again in the end, the price we paid was not low."

"And in this final battle, we are about to face the Zerg Queen who has swept across Dianzhou and Guizhou and is dominating the tropical rain forest in the southwest of the Federation. She was officially promoted to the late third stage not long ago!"

"It is also the first entity in the world to be promoted to the late third stage!"

"A late-stage third-stage queen can breed third-stage Zerg on her own. The second-stage Zerg you are facing now, including warrior hunters, pulse scorpions, and even new types of Zerg adapted to tropical environments, will all be promoted to the third stage and become a high wall of obstacles blocking our way."

"But all this is not the reason for us to retreat!"

"The appearance of a late-stage third-stage queen mother means that this global Zerg invasion has entered its final acceleration phase."

"As long as we gather enough late-stage queen mothers, we can promote the birth of a fourth-order insect king!"

"And the fourth-order insect king is a high-level existence that even a nuclear bomb cannot destroy!"

"Once it appears, humans will be powerless to save the situation, and everyone will die."

"It is precisely because of this news that this great expedition to the south is so anxious and hasty."

"Because there really isn't much time left for us humans!"

After explaining the reasons behind the Great Expedition to all the soldiers, Lin Feng paused and then continued:
"Only after we kill this late-stage queen can we get a chance to catch our breath and make adequate preparations for the future human-insect war."

"And the swarms of third-order Zerg and second-order Zerg, for everyone, it is also a feast to kill the Zerg and complete the leap-level promotion!"

"How many first-level soldiers are stuck at the peak of the late first-level for months, unable to complete the promotion because it is difficult to kill the second-level Zerg!"

"How many members of the second-level peak chapters are there? Those chapter leaders who have followed me from the beginning have already entered the late second-level perfection through bravely killing enemies time and time again before the great expedition to the south!"

"However, due to the scarcity of Tier 3 Zerg and the extremely strong Queen of the Zerg, there has been a long queue for promotion to Tier 3..."

"Until now, there are only eleven third-level warriors in the Salvation Army!"

"In the upcoming battle of Yuezhou, we will most likely engage in close combat with the third-order Zerg under the command of the late Queen Mother."

"When we face a large number of third-level insect swarms, it will be the key for everyone to advance to the third-level strongman and gain the power to protect themselves in this doomsday!"

After explaining the benefits after the risks, Lin Feng immediately announced the most exciting highlight:
"In addition to these, once we win the final battle, it also means that there will no longer be any Zerg forces that can threaten us in the entire southern part of the Federation..."

"At that time, the Salvation Army, as the most important and strongest resistance force of mankind, will also usher in a special era that belongs to us!"

"I will represent the entire Salvation Army and establish the last pure land for mankind, forming the Empire of Hope for mankind. I will ascend the throne and become emperor based on our recovered homeland, the eleven southern states of the former Federation!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present was instantly excited.

Human nature is always greedy, and the long battle has exhausted a large number of Salvation Army soldiers, not only physically exhausted, but also mentally numb and tired.

They yearn for rest and for the rights and status that match the strength they have evolved through hard work.

This is an inevitable problem after all forces flourish.

Lin Feng was also aware of this, which was why he chose to establish a kingdom after the final battle and rule the survivors in the southern states under his command.

Using the Jincheng base as a template, expand and establish a mature operating system.

Soldiers were recruited continuously to fight, and the public was conscripted to provide logistical support and supplies.

Organize the surviving humans to stand up and preserve the spark of hope in this battle between humans and insects.

Instead of being like the current chaotic federation, with each base on its own fighting against the Zerg expansion and invasion as much as possible.

But human beings cannot survive by retreating again and again and retreating to the Gobi Desert in the center of the continent.

Those late queens had no interest in this group of weak and pitiful insects. As long as the fourth-level insect king was born and commanded the queens and all insects in the world, it would no longer matter whether humans existed or not.

What they desire is the entire blue planet.

By using the body of the Fourth-Level Spine King to absorb the core energy deep in the earth's core, the entire blue planet will lose its endogenous power source, and the magnetic field that protects the atmosphere from direct bombardment and radiation from the sun's high-energy particles will no longer exist.

The blue planet will gradually turn into a dead star...

There is no possibility of life anymore.

The Zerg Spine King, who was promoted to the sixth-order Meteorite level, is so large that it is hundreds of kilometers wide.

Once it breaks free from the protection of the Blue Planet's crust and breaks out of its shell, it will inevitably tear the current surface of the Blue Planet into pieces.

Eventually, perhaps a small number of humans will serve as experimental subjects or pets raised by the Zerg, and as low-level existences like the red beetles, they will follow the Zerg to leave the solar system and head to the next galaxy for colonization and conquest.

This is the tragic ending that Lin Feng does not want to see. As a third-level awakener of the human race, he is the child of destiny who has the greatest hope of being promoted to the fourth level...

If the final battle between man and Zerg fails, the best outcome for him will be eternal imprisonment, becoming a subject of experiment and a slave of the Zerg in their wars.

Therefore, now, they must rely on a peak battle with the late Queen Mother of Guizhou to show the momentum of the Salvation Army.

As a war to establish a nation, its significance is not just about how many more third-level warriors and second-level battle group members there are...

Instead, it is to instill in the tens of millions of survivors today and the hundreds of millions of subjects of the empire in the future the belief that mankind will prevail!

Even a late-stage third-order queen cannot resist humanity's unyielding struggle against the fate of destruction!
After completing the most meaningful pre-war mobilization, Lin Feng ordered the colonial mecha to return to the stern hangar of the golden battleship, while he himself went to the command tower of the battleship.

Listen to reports from each branch.

Understand the current specific situation of the Salvation Army, the post-war collection and organization, the changes in personnel numbers and strength, and how much war potential the Salvation Army still has after this war.

The strategic deployment has been completed.

Next comes the implementation phase of specific tactics.

At this moment, in the combat command room of the command tower, all the senior officials of the Salvation Army sat upright, ready for battle.

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

After Lin Feng sat in the main seat and took the report handed over by Chen Yanyan behind him, he waved his hand to signal everyone to sit down. A circle of third-level powerhouses and second-level peak battle captains then slowly took their seats and officially started the meeting.

Due to time constraints and the fact that he had been in a coma for a long time during his recovery, all kinds of data statistics had been compiled into a written report by Chen Yanyan, so there was no need for his soldiers to report one by one this time.

At the same time, in order to speed up, Lin Feng looked directly at the report in his hand.

In terms of battle damage, a total of ten dreadnoughts were lost this time, of which four of their core power reactors were hit and completely shut down, collapsing in the city.

More than half of the remaining flying wing tanks, more than 100 in number, were also damaged, and more than 30 were directly scrapped and could not be repaired.

In terms of casualties, there were more than 30 first-level soldiers, more than of whom were seriously injured and died. The combat loss rate has reached %, which is very serious.

Among the more than 2,500 members of the second-level regiment, more than 500 were seriously injured and 100 were killed in battle.

Fortunately, the second-level awakeners have strong recovery abilities. As long as they replenish enough organic nutrient solution and enter the biological egg cabin for recuperation, they can even regenerate severed limbs.

The injuries were so severe that they included broken limbs. Recovery would take more than a week, and he was basically done with the battlefield.

Most of the more than one hundred people who died in the battle were newly promoted members of the second-level regiment, and they were first-level soldiers who had been promoted from the previous level in the Battle of Zhejiang Province.

Due to their weak strength and lack of combat experience, their mortality rate is somewhat high, reaching over 10%.

But it is also within the acceptable range.

After all, the second-level growth does not rely on shotguns, hiding behind the front line and pulling the trigger. As a member of the battle group, they need to rush to the most dangerous battlefield.

The elite troops are tasked with tearing through the Zerg resistance line, fighting deep into the underground Zerg nests, and achieving a breakthrough effect.

If you are not careful in close combat with the second-level tiger-spine worms and warrior hunting worms, you will be seriously injured.

After reading the battle damage report, the personnel strength and status statistics for the next day gave Lin Feng some unexpected surprises.

This large-scale military operation was decisive because of the Queen Mother's decapitation operation, which made the final result very fruitful.

Among the 28,000 surviving soldiers, 2,000 completed the cross-level promotion and became second-level awakeners.

This data is reasonable considering that the Five Emperors Alliance has a million-strong Zerg army, including more than 5,000 second-level Zerg swarms.

In addition, the remaining 26,000 soldiers also achieved advancement to the late first stage in this hunting feast, and more than 10,000 reached the nineteenth level.

They will be the reserve force for future second-tier battle groups and the cornerstone for defending the long-term survival of the empire.

In addition, other harvests included hundreds of thousands of first-level black-backed live insects and more than 500 second-level insect eggs.

Today, the Savior Army, excluding casualties, has more than 4,000 second-tier combatants and 20,000 battle-hardened soldiers.

The seriously injured and the remains of the dead were loaded onto ships and vehicles carrying supplies and returned to Jincheng Base and Wucheng Base in the northwest at noon today.

The subsequent rotation of first-level combat soldiers have also arrived at the Mingcheng battlefield on the ship.

There are a total of 20,000 members.

Mix and match with the old soldiers to form a new corps of warriors in the Savior Army.

After this great war, although the Savior Army suffered heavy casualties, its post-war strength grew at an extremely rapid pace.

The reborn Savior Army will also demonstrate its ferocious fighting power in the next final battle.

But before that, Lin Feng had to solve a problem that was getting bigger and bigger:
As the Great Expedition progressed, the battle line was stretched several times and was already a thousand kilometers away from the Jincheng base.

In addition, the terrain of Minzhou is rugged, and that of Yuecheng is even more so. In the same period of time, only one-third of the original transportation capacity remains.

However, the Salvation Army’s demand for supplies is increasing exponentially!
After this battle, many seriously injured soldiers suffered lifelong disabilities or died due to the shortage of medicine and equipment.

Non-combat casualties are becoming increasingly serious.

There is also food supply, which cannot rely solely on organic nutrient solution to supplement consumption.

This problem must be solved as soon as possible.

Otherwise, if it is dragged on to the Battle of Yuezhou, it will easily become the fuse of defeat under the higher intensity combat pressure.

Lin Feng looked at the map on the screen...

Turn your attention to Wucheng Base.
