Wasteland: My items are infinitely upgraded.

Chapter 258 Special Forces Wolf Fang Armor-Piercing Cannon, Time Bomb
Besides the alloy wolf bones and steel fangs, Lin Feng also noticed something else: Father Su An possessed a special forging technique that allowed him to maximize the use of these bio-metal materials.

With the same amount of materials, Father Suan can create more weapons with armor-piercing capabilities.

Lin Feng possesses a batch of level 26 refined steel wolf fangs, which originated from the mid-stage second-tier corpse wolves he killed in the train tunnel on the fifth level of the underground shelter beneath the Taishan Ruins.

However, within this corpse wolf, only the specially mutated refined steel wolf fangs possess a strength of level 26, while the rest of the alloy wolf bones are only level 24.

Therefore, Lin Feng deliberately kept some.

The number of them is not large.

Even though this mid-stage Tier 2 giant wolf has a massive body of twenty meters and a head that is four or five meters long, it only has about forty sharp canine teeth in its four rows of teeth.

Among them, four canines are the longest, reaching 60 centimeters, enough to pierce the armor of a mid-stage Tier 2 Rock Horse Giant, and are also a major weapon for the Wasteland Giant Wolf to deal with its prey.

However, these four 60-centimeter-long giant teeth, with a cone shape, only have a diameter of 30 centimeters at the bottom, and the total weight is only two or three hundred kilograms.

Including the remaining molars used for chewing, and the grade 26 steel fangs, the total weight is only 500 kilograms.

Lin Feng consumed 200 kilograms of power armor during the upgrade, and currently only 300 kilograms remain.

He originally intended to use it as raw material for special armor-piercing projectiles to synthesize a batch of special shells with extremely strong armor-piercing effects.

However, unlike the wolf fang bullets of the past, a single mutated wolf fang can be fused into a special armor-piercing bullet. The current armor-piercing cannon has a caliber larger than a fist, approaching 150 millimeters. To achieve the strength to directly penetrate the armor of the rock horned horse, it must be made of pure steel wolf fang material.

Therefore, each armor-piercing shell requires at least 20 kilograms of high-quality steel wolf teeth, and the remaining 300 kilograms can at most be used to synthesize 15 wolf tooth armor-piercing shells.

It can threaten mid-stage second-tier rock horse behemoths, and naturally it also possesses the ability to penetrate mid-stage second-tier rock horse armor.

This was also one of Lin Feng's trump cards, a powerful move specifically prepared for the Rock Horse warriors of the Li family and other rebel forces.

However, the rate of fire of the armor-piercing cannon is a major problem. After wearing the Rock Horse Armor, the second-tier Rock Horse Warrior can briefly burst out at a speed of more than 200 meters.

In particular, Li Hao's level 25 battle armor, combined with his level 26 evolved strength, can achieve subsonic speed bursts at its limit.

The shell can only hit the target at a distance of less than 300 meters, thanks to its near-sonic firing speed.

As for 300 meters away, Li Hao could dodge the direct hit of the armor-piercing cannon.

But these are not the problems that Lin Feng is worried about. The real problem comes from the distance within one hundred meters.

The armor-piercing cannon is effective within 300 meters and beyond 100 meters, because within 100 meters, Li Hao can use his maximum burst of speed to rush directly to Lin Feng.

Both sides were currently within the blast radius of the armor-piercing cannon. If Lin Feng did not want to be caught in the blast, he would be forced to engage in close combat with Li Hao.

In close combat, the Rock Horse Warriors clearly have the advantage.

Therefore, when upgrading the power armor, Lin Feng used the power of branding to add a portion of level 26 refined steel wolf fangs, thus creating the special melee weapon "Refined Steel Wolf Blade".

Similar to a mantis knife that suddenly springs out.

During his sparring match with Li Hao, Lin Feng used this attribute to break through the opponent's left arm armor and severely injure Li Hao's left shoulder.

However, in order to achieve this goal, Lin Feng also suffered considerable damage. In a real battle, Lin Feng would have to fight to the death to have a chance of mutual destruction.

However, at that time, the level 22 armor-piercing cannon only incorporated level 23 refined steel wolf fangs, not level 26 wolf fangs. Therefore, it would take five tungsten core armor-piercing cannons hitting the same spot in a row to shatter the thick protective layer of the level 25 rock horse armor.

If Lin Feng had used a level 26 armor-piercing cannon, it's estimated that just one shot would have been enough to shatter Li Hao's armor.

However, the remaining 300 kilograms of wolf tooth raw materials can only be used to synthesize 15 special armor-piercing cannons.

Moreover, it's a one-time event and cannot be reversed.

Lin Feng only had fifteen opportunities to make a move.

Furthermore, it cannot be used lightly, because once Li Hao and the other rebels learn of this intelligence, they will definitely take precautions.

They either never come within 300 meters of you, or they use ambush and assassination tactics to quietly approach you and then launch a fatal attack.

In short, if we synthesize a batch of level 26 special wolf-tooth armor-piercing cannons, we can only use them as a last resort and cannot use them to create a deterrent before the battle begins.

However, if it's not a one-time use item, Lin Feng can use it at will, making the Li family, especially Li Hao, wary of it, yet feeling helpless about it.

However, Lin Feng had not mastered Father Su An's forging techniques, which only allowed him to create melee weapons made entirely of fine steel wolf fangs.

This also means that the 300-kilogram wolf fang could be forged into a maximum of three heavy metal spears in Lin Feng's hands, but in Father Su An's hands, it could be forged into thirty spears.

Ninety percent of the gun body can be made of tungsten alloy, while the gun head or blade can be replaced with high-strength steel wolf fangs that have extremely strong armor-piercing capabilities.

In this way, not to mention Li Hao, even all the second-tier Rock Horse warriors in the rebel army, even if they wore second-tier Rock Horse armor, wouldn't be enough to defeat the church and Lin Feng's side.

The key question is whether there will be enough time to forge the item if it is handed over to Father Suan now.

There are less than 24 hours left until the next second-tier arena battle.

Ten kilometers away in the arena, the debate over the outcome of the martial arts match ended with Li Hao's defeat...

The first match has officially come to an end.

Xu Wanfeng then announced the results of the competition, with the second-tier expert sent by the church emerging victorious.

Li Hao could only leave with the Rock Horse Armor, its life essence and evolutionary flesh emptied and its control center gone, his face filled with gloomy resentment.

Father Suan helped the blood-soaked second-tier high priest to his feet, left the area, and quickly returned to the church's camp.

A large quantity of holy spring water was brought to the high priest for healing and restoration.

Meanwhile, in the command and control room of the Oasis warship, Lin Feng spoke to the Mind Priest beside him:

"Please help me contact Father Suan and have him communicate with me via walkie-talkie."

The high priest looked at the man with some confusion, but still nodded and said:

"Alright, but we'll have to wait a bit. Right now, they need to help the high priest who's participating in the tournament heal his wounds."

Lin Feng hummed in agreement, then turned and left.

Now that the competition is over, there's no need for him to stay in the control room any longer.

The walls here are made of thick alloy material, which strongly blocks wireless communication signals. To contact the outside world, one must return to the church area.

After Lin Feng left, he returned to the church through the secret passage, and then went back to his bedroom to put the key back into the warship for safekeeping.

Then they took out their team's walkie-talkies, turned them on, and searched for signals.

Unfortunately, the hull of the Oasis warship was also made of steel, and the uppermost civilian area was further protected by thickened armor.

Therefore, although a weak signal is received, there is a constant buzzing sound, making it difficult to transmit effective information.

Lin Feng thought for a moment and immediately found a solution. Following the route Shen Yue had taken him to the watchtower at the back of the cathedral, he moved to the highest point of the Oasis warship.

It is 20 meters higher than the Upper District, and 50 to 60 meters above the ground. From the watchtower, you can even see the surface of the land 10 kilometers away.

Behind the church are three pavilions, the main one being the tallest and the focal point for the moonlit ceremony.

The chosen sacrifice will serve as a human telescope and recorder, observing the movements of the Yang evil within the forbidden zone of the blazing sun.

This will allow us to obtain crucial intelligence and relay it back to Storm City.

The location where Lin Feng went to observe and spy last time was two other slightly shorter annex buildings, which were originally the oasis's watchtowers for monitoring the surrounding area and guarding against enemies.

The main building has security measures in place, requiring keys to open the doors, and there are combat priests guarding the outside.

Therefore, Lin Feng chose the old route and went to the watchtower of the annex building to use the height advantage to conduct communications.

After he bypassed numerous church monks and used the cover of a secret passage inside the church to reach his destination, the walkie-talkie in his hand finally returned to normal.

Because it's so high up here, apart from the photovoltaic wings on both sides, all that's left is a vast, boundless wasteland.

The Linfeng convoy was located below the photovoltaic panels on the right side of the main road, following at the tail of Shengquan Village.

Looking out, you can see the convoy behind the shadows of the solar panels, no more than 400 meters away.

Walkie-talkies can achieve real-time communication.

This walkie-talkie system was a gift from Xu Wanfeng when he purchased heavy trucks from the Hunter's Guild.

It can achieve free communication within a ten-kilometer radius.

However, after testing, Cheng Wentian, a master mechanic from the mechanical repair team, could only guarantee normal communication within a five-kilometer radius, while communication within a ten-kilometer radius required the most ideal conditions.

In other words, the two parties making the docking must not have any obstructions between them and must be in a flat environment.

This is obviously unlikely, especially since Oasis Avenue will soon enter the plateau region, where mountains are everywhere.

Five kilometers is enough, though.

Once we reach the Holy City, we will equip each combat team with a vehicle-mounted radio communication system to maintain contact while on the move and to facilitate the deployment of tactics.

At that moment, Lin Feng dialed a signal and sent a message.

Soon the truck radios in the convoy received the signal from here.

The radio repeater was placed on the latter of the two heavy trucks, on the shell production vehicle where Liu Qian was located, and an antenna five or six meters high was mounted on the front of the vehicle.

With the addition of the four-meter height of the front of the vehicle, it is a full ten meters tall, which can effectively enhance signal reception and transmission.

Upon receiving the signal, Amin, who was in charge of driving, immediately replied:
"Received, please provide instructions."

Lin Feng pressed the connect button:
"Help me pick up Deputy Leader Chen Shanshan."

When Lin Feng was away, Chen Shanshan was the supreme leader of this team, and everyone had to obey her.

In terms of evolution level and strength, Chen Shanshan is second only to Lin Feng. She can even directly crush Lin Feng, who is at level 22, in close combat with her Dark Domain ability when she evolves to level 20.

Upon receiving the order, Amin immediately took over the Wolf Warrior tanks at the front of the convoy.

After receiving the message, Chen Shanshan first reported to Lin Feng:
"Someone came to investigate in the past two days. They are late-stage Tier 1 beings. No Tier 2 evolvers have come yet, but they are expected to arrive soon."

"The results of the first match of the second tier have already spread. After the church's victory, there will definitely be people who want to investigate the secrets hidden in Holy Spring Village."

"Especially the biological modifications performed by Father Suan."

"We will also be listed as a secondary target for reconnaissance, so we need to prepare in advance."

Lin Feng nodded, surprised that the news had spread so quickly; only a dozen minutes had passed since the competition ended.

However, he had confidence in Chen Shanshan. Among the strongest in the rebel army, without Li Hao's intervention, any early-stage second-tier evolver, even a Rock Horse Warrior, would be no match for Chen Shanshan unless they wore the Rock Horse Armor.

Those coming to investigate need to remain in secrecy and cannot be fully armed in a grand manner. However, in a state of being unarmed, Chen Shanshan can almost be invincible by using the abilities of the Dark Domain through ambushes and assassinations.

"It's alright. As long as someone dares to make a move, just retaliate directly. Don't hold back."

Lin Feng gave an instruction and continued:
"There's one more thing. There are 300 kilograms of high-quality steel wolf tooth material inside the tank. I specially kept it. It has a quality level of 26."

"Take one hundred kilograms of it and go to Holy Spring Village to find Father Suan who has returned. Tell him to use these one hundred kilograms of rare materials to forge ten inferior imitation level 26 weapons, such as spears."

"We only need to be given six. They can keep four to deal with the upcoming arena battles and any possible forced rebellion by the Li family."

"This way, you'll have more backup weapons. While the Magic Spear of No Form is useful, it only truly amplifies its effects when combined with other melee weapons!"

"When combined with the Wolf Fang Spear, you can easily cripple even fully armed Rock Horse Warriors, or even kill them outright."

Chen Shanshan nodded, slightly excited, and said:

"Okay! I'll go right away!"

Lin Feng hummed in agreement, preparing to hang up the communication and return to the church to deal with the prisoners he had forgotten to rescue earlier, while continuing to peruse the first edition of the Holy Spring Book.

At this moment, Chen Shanshan suddenly remembered something and mentioned it before hanging up:
"When Liu Qian was in the ammunition production workshop, she was energizing grenades when she suddenly felt a tremor. Her internal energy seemed to be summoned by something and became disordered."

"I almost fainted."

"Fortunately, Amin discovered it in time and poured a lot of water on her to cool her down."

"Although things have returned to normal now, I'll let her rest for a while and stop powering the shells."

"Afterwards, I told Ding Yi about this, and she said it might be related to the Sun Forbidden Zone, and she suspected that some kind of entity was activating the energy of the Sun Curse."

"Let's keep an eye on Liu Qian these next few days."

“I have secretly arranged for Amin and others to take turns looking after her.”

Lin Feng narrowed his eyes, looking at the enormous sun hanging in the sky behind him, radiating endless light:
"Let's do it this way for now. Perhaps something has changed in the restricted area that has affected Liu Qian."

After hanging up the communication, Lin Feng also turned his gaze away. Even as a second-tier evolved being, he could not stare at the blazing sun on the horizon for too long.

Not only will the retina be damaged, but the excessive intake of sunlight energy will also erode the brain.

Therefore, Liu Qian, this ticking time bomb, still carries the risk of going berserk uncontrollably even after leaving Oasis Town and far from the scorching sun forbidden zone...

Lin Feng should consider transferring the other party away from the convoy and settling them in a settlement.
