Wasteland: My items are infinitely upgraded.

Chapter 151 Shepherd Saint, lv30 Bullet Production Machine

"If becoming a god means turning into a monster like this, then I'd rather stay at the early stage of the third level."

Lin Feng looked at the shadows and spoke slowly.

Bai Ye didn't notice the change in his expression and nodded:
"That's right, this is the wrong direction of evolution. Living simply for the sake of living has lost the meaning of the original effort to evolve."

"Take this ruin for example. The Abnormal Flesh and Blood Mother Nest at the bottom can only huddle at the bottom of the shelter for its entire life, never seeing the sun. Even though it can easily give birth to a third-level aberration, it still cannot leave the ruins. It can only huddle here until it is forgotten and slowly disappears."

In Lin Feng's sight, in the shadows where the sun could not reach, the black phantom that was contaminated by the spirit and transformed into his own appearance continued to speak:

"How ridiculous! How dare a pathetic ant that can't even live for ten thousand years talk about the right and wrong of the gods?"

"If it weren't for that incident back then, which caused my transformation to fail, I wouldn't be in this situation now..."

The mental pollution condensed into an illusion, mocked Bai Ye for a few words, and then turned to look at Lin Feng:
"Fortunately, it's not too late. As long as you offer your own pure body, carry my divine power, walk on the surface of the world on my behalf, spread the word of the Lord of Mount Tai, establish the religion of Mount Tai, and save believers from the wasteland and sea of ​​fire..."

"Then, you will use the power of all living beings to transform into a majestic divine body and help me return to the human world..."

"I will grant you the position of a divine messenger, a holy shepherd, shining with the divine, with everlasting incense and eternal immortality..."

Lin Feng frowned slightly and spoke calmly:
"Pretend to be a ghost, but speak human language."

Hearing this, Bai Ye was stunned and looked at Lin Feng in surprise.

I realized that the other party's gaze was still in the shadows, and then I realized that the situation was not good. I coughed twice:

"It's almost time to rest. Let's move it up as soon as possible and check if it can still start normally."

Lin Feng frowned slightly, and without waiting for the illusion condensed by mental pollution to reply, he nodded and stood up, walked to the machine with Bai Ye, and lifted up the stamping machine again.

Entering the underground floor and walking the last five kilometers, the mental pollution in my mind could no longer take shape because of the scorching sunlight.

In this way, they came all the way to the middle staircase. Ma Li and others at the entrance of the shelter immediately came down to lend a hand and carefully lifted the machine to the ground.

It is three meters wide, seven meters long and weighs more than ten tons.

In addition to the cutting and stamping production lines, the tool box next to the machine is also equipped with various styles of parts and different models of forming molds.

There are 9mm, 7.62mm, and 12.7mm bullets. These three universal bullet calibers can be adapted to most firearms, from pistols to heavy machine guns.

With it, as long as you collect basic raw materials such as copper plates and iron plates, you can continuously produce bullet shells. Later, you only need to solve the problems of ammunition and primers. This "money printing machine" in the wasteland can bring endless profits.

As the saying goes, all are equal under the gun.

For the evolvers who wear sturdy armor and are comparable to humanoid tanks, only when they are equipped with corresponding tank guns can they be completely complete.

Physical strength determines the lower limit of strength, while the improvement of firepower has no upper limit at all.

Especially for the Salvation Army led by Bai Ye, the leader who possesses spatial abilities can easily solve the biggest problem of gunpowder by mixing liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen.

Produce various types of artillery shells to achieve long-range strikes.

When the machine was moved to the side of the Salvation Army's fleet, Ma Li immediately took out the circuit she had prepared long ago, adjusted the transformer according to the notice board posted on the equipment, and started to power it on.

The power cable is as thick as two fingers.

As the power is turned on, the control panel lights up and enters the program loading stage.

Everyone held their breath as the most critical moment arrived. As long as the chip controlling the program was not damaged, this bullet-making machine could be put into operation smoothly.

Other circuits or components that are damaged can be repaired and replaced, but the control chip is the only one that can be found as a replacement in big cities, and may not even be compatible.

Fortunately, after a few minutes of long loading, the program finally completed the startup and popped up the control interface.

Ma Li breathed a sigh of relief and asked her subordinates to find a few pieces of copper plates that had been prepared earlier. They were three millimeters thick and cut into the size required to fit into the assembly line track.

Then press the start button.

A copper plate is pushed into the cutting area, and with a click, a four-centimeter round copper sheet is cut out of it, with unified size standards.

The copper sheet that falls down is then sent to the next conveyor belt, where it is heated and softened before it can be shaped.

Because copper has excellent ductility, it is quickly extruded into thumb-thick cylinders during die extrusion, which are hollow inside and have a primer area embedded at the tail.

The other forming line begins to make the bullet. The principle is the same, but the bullet requires less material and the pressed part is sharper.

The next step is to fill in the granular gunpowder and primer, and then pack the bullets.

A rifle bullet powerful enough to kill an enhanced human was manufactured.

Ma Li excitedly took out the finished shells and bullets, and used a vernier tape measure to measure the error to less than 0.1 mm.

The products produced by the machine are basically within the specified error values ​​and meet the standards.

It can be sold as first-class goods into the market.

The quality is more than a level better than the goods sent to the Oasis Town Guild. In terms of precision and power, it can reach the level of the old Earth period.

After confirming that there was no problem with the product, Ma Li took out a few shells and bullets, installed the primer on the bottom of the shell, inserted the bullet into the steel core, and walked to the leader with them.

After Bai Ye took it, he took out the thermos cup from his waist, connected the opening of the bullet shell to the water outlet of the thermos cup, and then controlled the liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen in the cup to be injected into it, forming a hydrogen and oxygen mixture in the bullet shell.

As the combustible materials and oxidizers are injected, the liquid vaporizes and forms a thin layer of cold frost on the surface of the shell, which then dissipates and evaporates in the high temperature of over 30 degrees.

The shell mouth is facing downward to prevent the hydrogen and oxygen mixture from escaping in large quantities.

Of course, Bai Ye’s special ability to expand the space and control the content of combustible materials in the shell is indispensable.

After the bullet is installed and tightened, a bullet that is slightly lighter by two or three grams is officially completed.

Ma Li then took out an ordinary AK rifle, loaded it with these ice-cold hydrogen bullets, aimed at a place underground where dust and sand were piled up, and fired a few shots.

Compared with traditional gunshots, the sound of hydrogen ignition is duller. Wrapped in the shell, only a sharp whistling sound comes from the muzzle of the gun barrel, like the arrival of the god of death, shooting out one deadly bullet after another.

The injection of the hydrogen-oxygen mixture was very effective. After verifying it a few times, Ma Li confirmed the shooting stability, and the initial velocity of the bullet was even much faster than that of traditional gunpowder.

The idea of ​​using hydrogen and oxygen for filling is completely feasible.

Lin Feng sat aside, took off his helmet visor, and saw the Savior Army's bullet production experiment in front of him, his eyes lit up.

Chen Shanshan, who stayed behind to support the team, was the same, looking around with curiosity.

Seeing that the other party used hydrogen and oxygen to successfully verify the power of the modified bullets, Lin Feng and the other man both showed an expression of disbelief on their faces.

No wonder the Salvation Army is so eager to obtain the production equipment for guns and bullets, because the most important source of gunpowder has been replaced by hydrogen and oxygen.

This means that the firepower of the Salvation Army will be greatly improved in the future, or even a qualitative leap.

No need to worry about weapons and ammunition anymore.

It is equivalent to a dozen high-quality rifles with unlimited ammunition, and even has some of the long-range firepower of a mortar.

After finishing the experiment, Ma Li picked up the bullet casing on the ground and checked it, and found that the shell was slightly swollen.

Bai Ye took it and examined it, then nodded and said, "Directly injecting hydrogen is still a bit dangerous, and it will cause serious wear and tear on the chamber, making it prone to explosion in the future. We should stick to the previous plan and stuff it with hydrogen storage cotton to imitate the old nitrocellulose."

"Once order is established in the future, we will buy a basic chemical halogen furnace and use hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen to produce nitric acid in batches."

Ma Li smiled excitedly:
"No problem. With this complete set of industries, we can also build a basic industry in the future. Then we can make engines and install them on aircraft."

Bai Ye breathed a sigh of relief. After staying here for so many days, his goal was finally achieved. It was like seeing a glimmer of hope for his dream, which was particularly difficult.

"Okay, let's seal it up."

"This one is for Captain Lin. Ours is still being moved back downstairs. Without Captain Lin's help, we might not be able to move any of them out this time."

Ma Li frowned slightly and glanced at Lin Feng who was sitting on the ground beside her. His expression was a little dull, and it seemed that he had changed a little from before:
"Why, is it dangerous inside the negative eighth floor?"

"By the way, did you bring any production materials? There should be quite a lot piled up in the workshop, right?"

Bai Ye sighed softly:

"It's a long story, but it was extremely dangerous. After moving the two stamping machines, we came straight back. If we had stayed any longer, something could have easily happened."

"But the raw materials are just some copper coins, and you can buy them from the guild for a little money."

There are many mineral sites left over from the old Earth period, which are currently controlled by top forces. Although there is only more than two years of collection time, it is enough for major forces to consume.

Ma Li nodded, and then arranged for her subordinates to dismantle the circuit, remove the copper plate materials, and deliver the verified machine to Lin Feng.

At this time, Bai Ye slowly walked over and spoke to Lin Feng:
"Try not to go any deeper into the ruins, especially the bottom three floors."

Then he asked the girl next to him:
"Did you find any second-level source crystals this time?"

Lin Feng had stayed at the train station on the negative fifth floor before, and Bai Ye learned that their mission required the source crystal of a second-level wasteland wolf.

The church plans to cultivate the Wasteland Wolf alien evolved warriors, or the second level, to fight against the rebellion of the Li family.

Chen Shanshan shook her head after hearing this, with a hint of regret:

"We've searched both the negative fourth and negative fifth floors, but haven't found a single Level 2 Steppenwolf corpse. If we want to find one, we can only go to the station tunnel on the negative fifth floor and see if there's any chance."

Bai Ye seemed to have expected this and nodded.

After all, before Lin Feng and others came, the Salvation Army had already roughly explored and cleared the three floors between negative four and negative six.

The main purpose is to search for the aura of a second-level existence.

After killing many lone second-level mutants, if there were still any second-level wasteland wolf corpses lying there motionless, they would naturally be discovered by Bai Ye and others.

After understanding the situation, Bai Ye looked at the time. It was only twelve o'clock in the morning of the fourth day. This exploration into the negative eighth floor only took ten hours in total.

Of these ten hours, the actual process of moving the equipment out only took about two hours, and the remaining eight hours were basically spent on traveling.

It takes 75 kilometers to go down, and 150 kilometers to go back and forth. Thanks to the fact that most of the deformed bodies in the upper three layers and the middle three layers have been cleared, everyone can speed up and complete this final mission at a speed of 20 kilometers per hour.

After confirming the time, Bai Ye turned around and looked at Lin Feng:

"Our mission has been completed. We will pack up later and will probably leave at 12:00 PM today."

"These focused searchlights will remain in place for ten hours. During this time, you may continue to utilize their suppression capabilities to freely roam the upper three floors."

"The station tunnel on the negative fifth floor is extremely dangerous for a Level 2 Evolver. I suggest you stay outside. If something unexpected happens, you can go in and provide assistance."

After giving the advice, Bai Ye stepped forward and patted Lin Feng on the shoulder, leaving a final sentence:

"Don't forget the agreement between us. Oasis Town is still waiting for your help."

After saying that, Bai Ye turned and left, entered the convoy, and directed the remaining members to go down to support the main force and move the remaining three devices up as soon as possible.

At the same time, he ordered everyone to start packing up the camp.

After gathering the basic military industry information, the Salvation Army's next goal was to stabilize their food supply.

In particular, the output of first-level evolutionary meat determines the size of the team and the number of second-level evolvers.

In fact, the pure life source trade over the years has accumulated huge wealth for the Salvation Army. Bai Ye has no shortage of second-level evolution agents, but the team has yet to have a third second-level evolver.

The biggest reason is the limited reserves of first-stage late evolutionary meat and second-stage evolutionary meat. As a result, even if more second-stage powerhouses are born, they cannot exert their full strength.

It may even be unable to suppress the late first stage evolvers due to its own weak state.

So the next task is to plunder the Farm Village in Oasis Town and the rock wildebeest breeding industry under the Li family.

The Salvation Army has made sufficient preparations for this, and even made corresponding arrangements more than ten years ago.

Lin Feng naturally knew this very well, so he chose to stand on the side of the Salvation Army and the Church to earn double the reward.

After Bai Ye left, Lin Feng immediately arranged for Chen Shanshan to return to the camp and call the team members to help him transfer the bullet production equipment weighing more than ten tons into the carriage of the transport vehicle.

If he hadn't brought two vehicles this time, one responsible for transporting supplies and the other for transporting personnel, Lin Feng wouldn't even be able to take this big thing back.

Nowadays, there are transport vehicles that are four meters wide and twelve meters long, and the stamping machine can be easily stuffed into them.

There is also the load issue. Although it is exactly ten tons, the speed will definitely be very slow when fully loaded, and the bumps along the way will be extremely unbearable.

So the transport vehicle needs to continue to be upgraded.

Lin Feng walked to the machine and checked its specific attribute data:
"Bullet Production Machine lv30, Gold Quality"

"Production efficiency: 5 pieces/s; Durability: 7/10; If the level is higher than the host's, it will consume 10 health points and restore one durability point."

Additional attributes: Bullet type (can produce different caliber bullets based on different templates, currently 9mm, 7.62mm, and 12.7mm can be produced); Automatic mode (comes with a built-in control panel, can automatically produce, just input the required raw materials on time)

"Evaluation: Level 30 golden equipment. Perhaps it can be disassembled into its various parts, upgraded and optimized, and then reassembled into the entire device."

Five shots per second, that’s 430,000 a day!
It is enough for a large force to have thousands of guns for a whole month's expenses. Usually, except for the scavengers, the guards in other forces rarely fire their guns.

Therefore, a bullet production machine can fully satisfy the Salvation Army's ambitions.

After Chen Shanshan left, she quickly brought several team members to perform, including Liu Mingfei and A Lian.

The four of them worked together to lift the equipment and returned to the camp.

Seeing Ding Yi packing up the supplies in the transport truck, Lin Feng walked forward, entered the truck and helped with the cleanup.

At this moment, a familiar yet unexpected word suddenly rang in his ears:

"I can give you the Steppenwolf's second-level life essence. It's near the train station on the negative fifth floor. You can find it without going deep into the tunnel..."

He was moving the refrigerator towards Lin Feng, narrowed his eyes and looked back.

In the dark corner of the shelf, the phantom formed by spiritual pollution appeared again, facing Lin Feng's face, but revealing a very sinister smile.
