Chapter 136: Source Material Trading, War Chess Game, Brand Filter
Obviously, it is currently impossible for Lin Feng to safely sell a large amount of pure life essence.

Even though Bai Ye, who has the strength of the late second stage, can only rely on pure source material to get some help in his position in front of the second-rate Salvation Army.

For example, the guild's secret support and cooperation, or the alliance formed by other second-level strongmen who have evolved from purity.

Instead of directly shipping in large quantities.

Because the supply is so small, the major top powers have turned a blind eye, or have not noticed it yet, or perhaps they have also intervened internally and become a link in the chain of interests.

But Lin Feng has neither the financial strength to guarantee nor the protection of some big shots...

Before the wings are fully grown, getting Bai Ye to endorse and quietly shipping the goods is undoubtedly the best choice.

During my last trip to the Wild Rift, I killed five first-level female rockhorn horses, three of which were level ten, one was level twelve, and one was level thirteen, for a total of eight level ten life essences.

After giving one portion to Ding Yi, who was the last to advance, there were still seven portions left, all of which were pure life essence that had been filtered.

According to Bai Ye, each share is worth 400 points, which means points, while the cost is only . The profit of % is an absolute profit among all the huge profits.

Of course, they are generally not sold directly to other wanderer forces or hunting guilds at market prices.

After all, the latter also needs to make money.

But even if the original price doubles, it is still quite amazing.

If you can find the scavenger the guild needs and sell it for three or four thousand points, it shouldn't be a big problem.

Compared with these small profits, the real big profit is obviously not comparable to the first-level pure source material.

An ordinary second-level life essence was sold for as high as 200,000 points.

But think about it, if the price of level 14 evolution meat is 150, level 16 is 250, level 17 is at least 300, and level 19 is at least 500 to 600.

A portion of level 19 evolutionary meat, even if it weighs 200 kilograms, would be sold at a sky-high price of 100,000, and the life essence of the same level squeezed out would naturally start at 100,000 points.

Then level 20, which is higher than level 19 and is a qualitative evolution across stages, selling for double the points at 200,000 is not really an exaggeration.

Therefore, the price of pure second-level life essence at one million points is reasonable.

Even at this price, even a second-rate force or a local family like the Li family would find it difficult to accumulate it.

Even for ordinary second-level life essence, 200,000 points is not a small amount.

No wonder the Li family has only produced two second-level evolvers in all these years.

However, judging from the price of late-stage evolutionary meat, the cost of stably supporting a second-level evolver is far greater than just breeding him.

It would consume 500 to 600 points a day, nearly 20,000 a month, and in ten months, it would be enough to buy a second-level life essence...

It is no wonder that in Oasis Town, which has a population of tens of thousands, there are only a handful of second-level evolvers.

Not counting the Holy Spring Cult and the Wasteland Hunter Guild, there were only five of them in total. Among the wasteland hunters, only Han Tao had come out alone.

As expected, resources come first.

There are not enough resources. Even if you possess the second-level life essence and are promoted to a second-level evolver, you will not be able to exert your true second-level strength.

Because as long as you fight, you will consume several times more food than usual, which is equivalent to burning money.

Therefore, if there is no corresponding food supply, even if it evolves to a higher level, it may be worse than before, at least it will not starve and become weak.

Thinking of this, Lin Feng quickly understood why Bai Ye, the leader of the Salvation Army, agreed to his conditions.

It's likely that he was certain he didn't have enough Level 1 Late Evolutionary Meat, or Level 2 Evolutionary Meat. If he rashly advanced to Level 2, he would only be more restricted...

Finally, he was left to the mercy of the Salvation Army.

However, they obviously didn't expect that Lin Feng still had nearly one hundred pieces of level 18 evolved dried meat in his hand, a total of one hundred kilograms.

Although the number is not large, it is definitely enough for this relic operation.

Moreover, Lin Feng is not a true firearms ability evolver. The two heavy firepower guns will not consume any additional abilities or health points except for upgrading and repairing them.

What he said before was just an excuse made by Lin Feng.

As long as he evolves to the second level, Lin Feng is fully confident that he can compete with the entire Salvation Army and even suppress them.

At that time, you will be able to buy the essence of life from Bai Ye at a cheaper price.

For the Savior Army and Bai Ye, using pure life essence to exchange some benefits is definitely more cost-effective than directly trading points for money.

And the partners are more willing to exchange.

For example, Lin Feng now has to sell his labor to serve the Savior Army in exchange for the Source Crystal of the Steppe Wolf and the opportunity to continue evolving.

Therefore, Lin Feng could completely lend a hand and use up the free ammunition in his hands in exchange for one or two portions of pure life essence as the basis for his secret shipment.

Then just push everything onto Bai Ye.

Anyway, she is a wanderer and has been trading in pure source material for a long time.

Lin Feng only took a minute or two to analyze all the subsequent plans and future layouts.

Bai Ye in front of him thought that Lin Feng was frightened by the price of pure life source.

After all, it's a business worth hundreds of thousands or even millions...

For a survivor who has just awakened in the wasteland and risked his life to gain his current status, such a sky-high price means countless life-and-death crises.

Otherwise, you probably won’t make any money in ten years.

But if there is no pressure, how can there be motivation?
Bai Ye looked quietly at the man in front of him, and from his absent-minded expression, he gained a sense of pleasure in controlling everything.

By incorporating Lin Feng into the plan, the success rate of the Salvation Army's looting operation will be greatly increased.

After all, what they lacked was the heavy firepower that the opponent's firearms could provide.

Lin Feng came back to his senses and breathed a sigh of relief:

"Thank you, Chief Bai, for clearing up my doubts. If I need pure life essence in the future, I will definitely come to you."

"Of course, if the Salvation Army that Chief Bai is with also needs firepower support, they can just come to me directly. As long as I am free, I will definitely help you to the utmost."

Lin Feng’s reply was very nice, and it was exactly what Bai Ye wanted.

The silver-haired, fair-skinned beauty nodded with satisfaction, waved her hand, and put the stainless steel thermos cup back into the equipment belt around her waist, then continued:
"With Captain Lin escorting us on this relic operation, it will surely go smoothly and be a complete success."

"Captain Lin, please arrive in the cave on time in a few hours to participate in the clearing mission on the negative first floor. After you complete it, I will also advance you an 18th-level Rockhorn Horse Life Essence."

"Once you've dealt with the negative second floor, there will be another level 19 source essence waiting for you to use and absorb."

"Every time the evolution level is raised, the consumed status and internal energy will be directly restored."

"This will ensure the speed of the cleanup."

"The Lieyang Forbidden Zone behind us will reach the Taishan Ruins in less than eight days. We don't have much time left, so we must hurry. Captain Lin, please forgive me."

Seeing that the other party was so thoughtful, Lin Feng would not care about these things at all. Anyway, at most he would have to consume some health points when upgrading the branded equipment, which could be restored with half a piece of evolution meat.

As for clearing out the deformed monsters on the upper three levels, under the scorching sun, Lin Feng didn't need to consume anything at all, he could just finish off the monsters as he walked.

In Bai Ye's opinion, doing so is actually a bit exploitative, because although continuous evolution can restore the physical body and superpowers, the fatigue caused by continuous combat can only be replenished by long-term hibernation.

But there is no way, time is really tight.

The collection of machine tools from military factories is only one part of the Salvation Army's entire operation. Now the progress has been unexpectedly slowed down by the riots, and now they can only speed up the cleanup.

Fortunately, the man in front of him did not show any displeasure and readily agreed to his arrangement.

Bai Ye breathed a sigh of relief and then arranged for Lisa to send Lin Feng back to the camp to have a good rest.

In fact, when leaving, Lin Feng saw the Salvation Army members taking off some heavy equipment:
Lots of iron boxes and jet-like devices.

And not just one set, but more than ten sets.

Then he remembered that when he was on the negative third floor, he saw Lisa and others gathered around the bonfire, so Lin Feng asked:
"Did the Saviors use flamethrowers to disperse those aberrations and enter the underground ruins?"

"You actually have so much fuel, is it gasoline?"

You have to know that ordinary flamethrowers can only continue to fight for less than an hour at most. Sometimes they consume energy very quickly, and the fuel tank reserves will be exhausted in less than half an hour.

As the most effective means to drive away and kill the deformed monsters, Lin Feng had thought about using fire directly, but the price of fuel was prohibitive for him.

Today, organic fuels, including petroleum, which was the blood of industry in the old Earth era, and the general fuels such as gasoline and diesel produced from it, have become very precious materials.

Only a few global migration routes can pass through the former oil-producing areas, and then a small amount of oil can be extracted in two or three years. The fuel produced by reprocessing is only enough to meet the consumption of a small group of people at the top of the top powers.

Fuel is rare in towns like Oasis.

How could the Wanderer forces be so extravagant? !
Compared with traditional fuel engines, the 24-hour exposure to the sun in the wasteland is obviously more suitable for electric vehicles.

Therefore, most means of transportation adopt electric drive mode. Although there are many conditions and problems required, the only thing that is not lacking is the energy source.

Traditional fuels are actually more suitable as weapons than as fuel.

The power of gasoline bombs is no less than that of ordinary explosives. They are extremely effective when used to attack gathering places or groups of wild beasts.

If the Savior Army really had a lot of fuel, why would they waste it in the ruins?

After Lin Feng asked curiously, Bai Ye's mouth corners slightly raised and he slowly spoke:
"If we could find an oil well, why would we come to the Taishan ruins? We could just buy oil and have everything."

"That's not traditional fuel. The Savior Army doesn't have that much of it. It's actually hydrogen. To be more precise, it's liquid hydrogen that I've compressed."

"This thing only needs to ionize fresh water, but it is only suitable for normal combustion and is difficult to transport or use for other purposes."

After mentioning a few words, Bai Ye changed the subject:
"Okay, it's getting late. Captain Lin should go back and have a good rest. We'll join you at 8pm."

Seeing that Bai Ye was unwilling to explain further and just mentioned it before ordering him to leave, Lin Feng was too embarrassed to force it. Under Lisa's guidance, they left the cave.

On the way back, Lin Feng asked the other party about his experiences in the Salvation Army these days.

Before, Lisa was trembling under the pressure of the two bosses and dared not speak. She could only bury her head in eating yam and horse meat. Now, after leaving the cave, she seemed to have opened up her chatterbox and talked about what she had seen and heard in the past few days:
The story starts from when Duncan and his party left the Wild Rift and all the way to when they arrived at the Tarzan ruins and joined up with the Saviors who had been stationed there for a long time.

After handing over the supplies from the two trucks, Lisa obtained the pure life essence from the leader Bai Ye and completed the pure evolution.

Later, she joined the Saviors as the head of the Rockhorn Horse Industry and stayed, while the rest of Duncan's team returned to Oasis Town.

Lin Feng nodded, the timing all matched.

It took less than two days from the time we left the Wilderness Rift to the time we set out again after the Holy Spring Day, which was almost the same time difference as Duncan's team.

The two of them walked together, and when they were about to reach the camp, Lin Feng narrowed his eyes slightly and asked in a low voice:

"After you arrived at the Salvation Army, did you encounter the hunting team from Oasis Town, or the evolvers from Oasis Town?"

Lin Feng secretly calculated the timeline and found that the Salvation Army attacked the pilgrim convoy almost after Duncan's team arrived at the ruins camp.

So Lisa must have known about the Salvation Army's looting of the pilgrim caravan.

And to understand specifically where the Li family's vehicle is, and the supplies on it, so that they can carry out a surgical strike...

The Salvation Army must have absolutely accurate intelligence!

In order to successfully complete the robbery, firstly, they had to know which vehicle was the truck transporting the Li family's supplies. Secondly, they had to know in advance that the pilgrimage vehicle contained important supplies that the Li family had carefully planned for many years and purchased:
Several portions of life essence of leader-level rock wildebeests, and the life essence of patriarch-level rock wildebeests, which is crucial to the situation in Oasis Town.

After hearing the news in Oasis Town, Lin Feng was still unclear about the value of the second-level source material, nor was he clear about its strategic significance. He only knew that the price of rockhorn horse meat in Oasis Town would definitely increase, so he sold the fourteenth-level rockhorn horse meat and made a profit.

It was not until just now from Bai Ye that Lin Feng learned the price of the second-level life essence.

It's worth a full two hundred thousand!

Compared with the huge losses suffered by the Li family, the price increase in Oasis Town is not worth mentioning at all.

In addition, the Salvation Army is willing to provide him with one-stop service from level 18 to level 20, which means that they have at least one level 18 and one level 19 life essence in their hands.

The total value of the Li family's losses was close to over 300,000, even though they had been cultivating Oasis Town for many years and making huge profits from the rock horn beetle industry...

Such a huge loss will hurt you for a while.

Moreover, at such a critical juncture, new second-level evolvers are needed to enhance the family's strength.

So, from the beginning, Lin Feng had always believed that the Salvation Army had obtained information about the Li family and the pilgrim caravan from the church...

But considering the behavior and attitude of Father Su An and Pastor Zheng Yanying, as well as the positions of both parties, Lin Feng felt that he had taken things for granted before.

In the eyes of the church, the Wanderer forces are more hateful and more intolerable than the Li family.

What the Li family wants is nothing more than control of Oasis.

The Wanderer forces intend to destroy the entire Oasis Town and carry out a one-time plunder that will kill the goose that lays the golden eggs.

In contrast, the church will obviously not rely on the power of the Salvation Army to invite wolves into the house and give blood transfusions to the enemy.

If it's not the church, then the only possible place is the five villages under the oasis...

The news must have come from one of the villages, namely, Farm Village, Motorcycle Village, Shuguang Village, and the Fifth Village.

This informant must also be clear about the internal arrangements of the Li family, have a full understanding and research of the Li family, and be able to identify the other party's pilgrimage transport trucks and the important materials transported by the trucks.

After adding these conditions and narrowing the scope, Lin Feng quickly deduced that the informer was most likely an evolver who had signed a contract with the Li family!
Then the most likely person is the senior evolver with the strength of the mid-stage first level, Lord Wang, Wang Chen, whom Qi Shan and Tian Wanrong wanted to join at the beginning!
He left Oasis Town when Team Lin Feng and Team Li Hu were working together to hunt down the Wasteland Wolves. Later, when Lin Feng finished his Rock Wildebeest hunt and returned to Oasis Town to participate in the Holy Spring Day, Wang Chen hadn't returned yet...

However, when Lin Feng and others and Duncan's team arrived at the Wild Rift Valley, they did not encounter any other hunting teams, which meant that at that time, Wang Chen was neither hunting the rock wildebeest herd nor returning to Oasis Town.

In the nearby wasteland, there are only the Taishan ruins, a landmark human gathering place.

After connecting the dots, Lin Feng has already guessed the situation behind it almost exactly.

At this moment, after he asked this question, Lisa's expression changed obviously. First she was a little surprised, and then she became confused.

Finally, he nodded and said:

"This matter...both Chief Bai and Duncan told me that it must not be leaked..."

Lin Feng coughed lightly:
"That goes without saying. Since you've joined the Salvation Army, you must abide by the rules and maintain confidentiality."

Lisa nodded, breathing a sigh of relief.

In fact, for her who was in a dilemma, achieving this level was enough for Lin Feng.

As long as it is confirmed that a hunting team has been here, then it is a foregone conclusion that there is a traitor in the Li family.

Including Duncan's team, they have to return to Oasis Town, where a fierce battle is about to break out. It is obvious that they want to continue to provide internal support for the Savior Army's next action.

A chess game of war involving all parties,

Gradually appeared in front of Lin Feng...

Now the Li family is under attack from all sides and cannot escape death...

He is already deeply trapped in it. While ensuring that he can find a way out, he also strives to obtain the maximum benefit. At that time, whichever party offers the higher price!

Lin Feng was thinking and unknowingly arrived at the team camp where the four trams were located.

Ding Yi, Chen Shanshan and others in the team came out to greet Lisa.

During the last trip to the Wild Rift, Lisa was very helpful to the team. She taught everyone how to dissect a rock wildebeest carcass and the tricks to catching rock wildebeests. Before leaving, she even gave them two lassoes for free.

Ding Yi took the pressure cooker from Lisa, took her under the tent to chat for a while, and poured her a large glass of chilled sea buckthorn wine stored in the car.

Lin Feng returned to the transport vehicle where the dried meat was stored, opened the freezer, and checked the seven bottles of pure source evolution agents.

Now they are Lin Feng’s biggest secrets besides the system and equipment.

The most valuable and the most deadly.

After confirming that all seven were intact, Lin Feng went to the grocery area at the end of the carriage to look for the ninth-level purification extraction filter that was left there.

After searching for a while, they first saw Su Yueyue sleeping soundly inside. Ding Yi specially found a blanket for her, and since she was holding the magic dog, she was not too cold.

In order to ensure the freshness of the dried meat, the air conditioner in the transport vehicle is always on and the temperature is kept at around 20 degrees. It is still quite cold if you stay in it for a long time.

Especially since Su Yueyue was only at the initial stage of strengthening, and her physical condition was getting worse and worse under the torture of the scorching sun curse...

If you don’t cover yourself with a blanket, you’ll easily get a fever and get sick.

When Lin Feng approached, the divine dog woke up first, wagging its tail and trying to stand up.

He was pressed down by Lin Feng again and continued to lie there.

After patting the dog's head twice to comfort it, the magical dog was no longer so excited and continued to sleep on its side.

Cat and dog cubs can sleep an average of twenty hours a day. Apart from eating, drinking, defecating and urinating, they basically spend the rest of the time sleeping to digest food and grow muscles and body size.

Without disturbing their rest, Lin Feng continued to look for the purification extraction filter.

Soon, this long cylindrical object was turned out.

「Purification Extraction Filter Level 9, White Quality」

"Basic Attributes: Maximum pore size 100 nanometers, First-order genetic impurity filtration rate: 100%; Uses: 1; Upgraded to potential limit, can be increased through branding."

"Evaluation: Able to perfectly filter out foreign genetic impurities from first-order life essence, obtaining pure essence to achieve immaculate evolution."

Lin Feng then chose Brand, and then consumed five health points to upgrade.

After walking out of the transport vehicle with the things, Lisa exchanged some greetings and returned to the cave camp.

Lin Feng took the filter and returned to the tank compartment to rest.

At this moment, he was a little tired after experiencing so many battles, thinking and analysis.

He glanced at his own attribute data panel. His health and physique didn't change much, but his mental attribute dropped from the upper limit of 130 to 121, almost falling below the lower limit.

In reality, it means that the brain is tired and the whole person becomes drowsy and lacks energy.

After instructing others to take turns on duty, Lin Feng lay down on the backrest of the seat and fell into a deep sleep.

I slept until around six in the evening.

At this time, Ding Yi was making dinner.

Because Lin Feng has an operation coming up, and the only specific person assigned is Chen Shanshan, who will follow him into the underground first floor to assist the Salvation Army in clearing out the deformed creatures.

So just cook for the two of them.

A two-kilogram portion of level fifteen evolutionary meat.

Lin Feng woke up slowly and felt much better.

Mental attributes are restored.

During the meal, Lin Feng suddenly remembered something and asked Ding Yi about the Savior Army's flamethrowers and how hydrogen was liquefied.

Could it be related to Bai Ye’s spatial power?

Not only can she create space, but she can also compress it?

If this is the case, it would also explain how the stainless steel thermos on her belt turned into a bomb.
