Wasteland: My items are infinitely upgraded.

Chapter 262 Breaking the Town-Level Beast Disaster, the Future of the Divine Dog

Lin Feng was actually mentally prepared for the Steppenwolf attack, so when the binoculars showed a fleeting image of it ten kilometers away...

Compared to the impending town-destroying beast calamity, Lin Feng was not nervous about the crisis. Instead, he was excited that the Wasteland Wolf Clan had joined the fray, which would change the fate of Oasis Town.

The more chaotic the situation, the more advantageous it will be for Lin Feng, who has no roots in Oasis Town.

A stable situation can only secure the agreed-upon benefits, and there's no guarantee that they will be fulfilled smoothly, but a chaotic situation can provide countless opportunities.

When order is on the verge of collapse and the law of the jungle begins to prevail, the stronger one is, the more one will plunder.

These are conveniences that cannot be provided during peacetime. If Lin Feng openly demands resources and equipment, or threatens everyone with long-range firepower to submit, he will inevitably face the united hatred of all forces in Oasis Town.

But now that the Steppe Wolves are about to invade, Lin Feng's powerful firepower has become the only way to break the deadlock.

At that time, Lin Feng wouldn't even need to ask; the survivors who wanted to live would willingly offer everything, hoping to obtain artillery ammunition or seek refuge.

Thinking of this, Lin Feng realized that he couldn't let Liu Qian rest right now. Her awakened empowerment ability might be the key to resolving this crisis.

So Lin Feng quickly picked up the walkie-talkie and spoke to Chen Shanshan:

"Ahem, I'm afraid there won't be time for Liu Qian to take a break, as I mentioned before."

Chen Shanshan had just left Ding Yi's experimental vehicle.

Upon hearing the news that the divine dog had completed its transformation, she was very excited and took ten kilograms of level ten evolution meat to Ding Yi's experimental vehicle to deliver food to the divine dog.

After playing with the divine dog for a while and checking its strength growth, I returned to the Wild Wolf Chariot.

After hearing Lin Feng's sudden reply, Chen Shanshan hesitated for a moment and said:

"What's wrong? Could it be that the Li family, having lost the second-tier arena competition, is planning to launch a rebellion and attack the oasis?"

Lin Feng shook his head:
"If that's the case, then with the strength of the Li family and the other two villages, there's no need to continue producing empowered grenades. The current combat squad is strong enough to protect our convoy and create a firepower deterrent..."

"But the current situation is more serious than the rebellion launched by the Li family. Oasis Town has been targeted by external forces."

At this point, Lin Feng looked up and glanced around, making sure no one was around, before lowering his voice and continuing:

"From the top of the Oasis warship, I saw a pack of wasteland wolves suddenly appear on the wasteland ten kilometers away."

"Moreover, they have all completed their transformation and become first-tier wild wolves at the level of evolved wild beasts, and there are even some late-stage first-tier leader-level giant wolves!"

"The number is in the thousands!"

"So this can't possibly be just one pack of wasteland wolves; it's the entire wasteland wolf pack that's come!"

"Behind them, there must be a hidden second-tier clan leader-level wild wolf behemoth, directing and controlling the entire wolf pack as they approach Oasis Town!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Shanshan was shocked, and her tone became urgent:

"What should we do then? With so many Steppenwolves, can we handle them with our firepower alone?"

"The current standard 35mm grenades can barely inflict damage on late-stage Tier 1 lifeforms. If thousands of evolved wild wolves, led by a leader or even a patriarch-level giant wolf, were to launch an attack..."

"Our small convoy of fifty or sixty people, and our combat squad of only twenty-odd people, simply cannot hold out!"

"Shouldn't we first notify the church and the other five villages to immediately stop the arena battles and unite to deal with the beast tide attack and plunder by the Wasteland Wolf Clan?"

Lin Feng nodded, but did not immediately agree:
"Don't rush. I have my own plans for this. Besides, the Wilderness Wolf Clan won't launch an attack directly; they'll definitely observe for a while."

"If there is no suitable opportunity, they may not actually invade Oasis Town. They might give up their plans and go north to hunt the Rockhorn herds instead, seeing that the Oasis forces are strong."

"And don't be fooled by the fact that the Li family has lost the game. The Li family patriarch, Li Hao, has been plotting for many years and must have a backup plan."

"If the Oasis Church suffers heavy losses during the invasion of the Hell Wolf, and the Li family and others reap the benefits, it would be better for us to let the Li family take the lead first and test the strength and quality of the Hell Wolf clan."

"So don't tell anyone about this yet. Just tell Ding Yi within the team."

"Let her make plans and arrange countermeasures."

"I will discuss this with the bishop of the Oasis Church and Father Suan to see how they plan to deal with it."

Chen Shanshan nodded. Although she didn't quite understand, Lin Feng's calm tone made her realize that the situation wasn't as serious as she had imagined.

Then it occurred to her that Lin Feng possessed a super weapon of mass destruction, powerful enough to slice off twenty meters from a hundred-meter-high hill...

The destructive power of the explosion was enough to alter the terrain; even ordinary second-tier chieftain-level evolved wild beasts couldn't withstand it, let alone those below the second tier.

Moreover, Lin Feng's artillery fire has virtually no ammunition limitations, and the team's ammunition production workshop continuously produces empowered grenades...

As long as a group of people come to help their convoy build a defensive line, go up to face the wasteland wolf pack head-on, and withstand the first wave of attacks from the evolved wasteland wolves, their subordinates can use artillery fire to directly crush the wasteland wolf pack.

Thinking of this, Chen Shanshan calmed down and nodded composedly:

"Understood. I'll have Liu Qian continue to power up the grenades, and then I'll arrange for the combat team to continue training."

"By the way, speaking of combat teams, the teaching and training conducted by Duncan and his team has been very successful. The combat coordination of our teams is much better than before."

"Especially with the use of firearms, compared to the past when we only knew how to aim and fire, we now have more tactical options and the ability to rotate firepower."

"In short, they already have some of the qualities of professional soldiers in the Holy City, but they still need to go through a few real battles before they can truly grow up."

Lin Feng nodded, Chen Shanshan was right.

Now, half of the combat squad members have become evolved beings, and their speed of learning and imitation is unmatched by ordinary people. The remaining ordinary members also have the strength of level nine enhancement, and they all climbed up from the bottom of the wilderness. Hard work and endurance are just basic operations for them.

Apart from the wanderers brought by Ma Chenfeng, the quality of this group of people was actually far higher than that of the permanent residents of the other five villages, and they all had the potential to become evolved beings.

Lin Feng originally planned to let them experience the rebellion instigated by the Li family, so that they could gain experience.

Unexpectedly, thanks to the bishop's efforts to form alliances, the situation in the oasis eased, and the possibility of fierce fighting decreased dramatically.

This peaceful resolution was not what Lin Feng actually wanted to see. However, it would help Father Su An control the situation and make it easier for the title of honorary deputy mayor to be implemented. That's why Lin Feng agreed to the bishop's arrangement.

Now that a pack of wasteland wolves has arrived to stir things up, the impact they could have is far more intense than that of the Salvation Army. Lin Feng's appetite has naturally grown as well.

A mere permit for driving on the migration route was not enough to satisfy his appetite.

If possible, Lin Feng would prefer to take the Oasis warship directly, or at the very least obtain its core power system, even if it's just the blueprints.

In this way, Lin Feng will be able to use the upgrade system to directly build his own level 30 town-class warship and establish a medium-to-large settlement, paving the way for his future advancement to the third-tier king.

To achieve this, the Oasis warship and Oasis town need to be on the verge of death, suffering heavy damage, and then struggling to escape.

In this way, as long as Lin Feng can maintain his peak condition by then, he will be able to become the strongest in the Oasis and truly control the situation.

Therefore, he cannot easily make a move, or rather, he cannot easily let the Steppe Wolf clan understand his true strength and then back down.

In this way, not only will the rebel forces, including the Li family, not be severely damaged, but the church can also preserve its strength to the greatest extent.

To become the ultimate winner, one must strike decisively at the most crucial moment to achieve a decisive victory.

Lin Feng cannot leave the Oasis warship; the deteriorating situation requires him to stay and oversee the situation.

However, this means that the newly established caravan under their command will have to rely on its own strength, just like the other five villages, to face the evolved wild wolves attacking from all directions.

Thinking of this, Lin Feng continued to issue orders:

"Let A-Lian, who is in charge of training, and Captain Ma Chenfeng continue to train according to Duncan's family precepts. At the same time, from now on, the entire team will be on high alert. Multiple sentries will be set up to take turns on duty and patrol for 20 hours a day."

"At the same time, all the previously ordered weapons, as well as the repeating grenade launchers made by Xiang Wentian, should be distributed. Even the support personnel should be equipped with large-caliber rifles."

"The combat team is beginning live-fire duty. If an emergency occurs, do not hesitate to open fire!"

Chen Shanshan nodded and wrote them down one by one.

Lin Feng thought about it and realized that the root cause of the attack by the wasteland wolves was actually himself, related to his blasting of the tunnel inside the Mount Tai ruins.

The ultimate goal of the Wasteland Wolf's attack on Oasis Town was to inherit the third-tier body that had been dead for many years in the Wolf King's Tomb in Fallen Wolf Valley.

But this is also Lin Feng's goal.

He needs to cultivate several capable assistants whose strength reaches the third-tier king level, in order to meet the ultimate goal of the future evolution of the Immaculate One and become a god above the third tier.

He will then become the common enemy of all top powers, especially the Holy Spring Church, which is founded on religion. Its fanatical worship of the Lord of the Holy Spring has put the Church and the gods worshipped by other powers in a state of irreconcilable conflict.

How could they tolerate the birth of a new god under their rule?

Therefore, while Lin Feng is constantly getting stronger, he also needs to gather enough power to fight against the old order of the wasteland world.

The third-tier wolf king buried within the Taishan Ruins was once a top-tier king beast at the late third-tier stage, possessing an evolution level of thirty-nine.

Its strength is second only to the gods among the strongest evolved life forms. In an era when the gods did not appear, its existence was enough to influence the current power structure of the world.

Even after thousands of years of consumption and release, such an immortal third-tier body can still retain at least the original power of the mid-to-late third-tier level.

If the Divine Dog can inherit the legacy of the Wolf King and become a new Tier 3 Wolf King, then it will at least possess the evolutionary strength of the mid-to-late Tier 3.

They are also qualified to participate in a new round of evolutionary competition amidst the darkness and turmoil of the future, and to create their own evolutionary legend.

Therefore, the wolf pack currently appearing outside the oasis is, in a sense, not the dog's companion or kin, but one of its competitors.

Killing these evolved wild wolves, absorbing their life essence, and completing their metamorphosis will be the beginning of the divine dog's own evolutionary journey.

Even if the Wilderness Wolf clan is eventually wiped out, as long as the Divine Dog can inherit the Wolf King's body and will, it can still assimilate a new group of evolved wolves through genetic radiation.

This is also the ultimate path of life's evolution.

When an individual's strength far exceeds the impact of environmental changes, traditional reproduction will no longer be the only way to perpetuate genes.

By gathering all the genetic samples of a race and merging them into one, the strongest member of the race is born, which in turn nourishes the race and expands its living space. This is also one of the evolutionary choices.

Therefore, Lin Feng's main objective is to figure out how to make the evolved divine dog understand his good intentions.

After explaining things to Chen Shanshan, he contacted Ding Yi through the central control system.

The latter is currently conducting research on the experimental subject.

At the same time, we will continue to purify the insect venom in order to weaken the enemy's rock horse warriors and capture the rock horn horse herds raised by the enemy in the event of a possible rebellion by the Li family.

Because the divine dog that was eating meat nearby had already completed its evolutionary transformation, research on the genes of the Steppenwolf and the development of the werewolf evolution agent will be temporarily suspended.

Tian Wanrong, who became an experimental subject, was handed over to Han Yuyu, an assistant recruited by Ding Yi, to take care of and record her.

Upon receiving the message, Ding Yi quickly went to the driver's seat at the front of the vehicle and contacted Lin Feng.

The latter instructed Ding Yi to dismiss the others, and then briefly explained the wolf attack and subsequent plans:

"The Wasteland Wolf Clan is going to attack Oasis Town, so I must be stationed on the Oasis warship to ensure its safety."

"The safety and protection of the convoy can only be left to you. You, Chen Shanshan, and the two team leaders will discuss and make arrangements."

"There's one more thing. Once the evolved wild wolves get close enough, the divine hounds will definitely sense it, and the wolf pack will also detect the presence of their own kind in the human settlements..."

"I don't want anything to happen to the dog then."

"In its later stages of enhancement, it had the intellectual level of a six or seven-year-old human child. Now that it has completed its evolutionary transformation, it has at least the comprehension ability of a ten-year-old human."

"It should understand who its true friends are and who its true enemies are."

"If it doesn't understand, then teach it to understand."

Ding Yi nodded and looked at the laboratory behind her. The third-order gene cells, which were preserved at low temperature in a glass box, seemed to be becoming active.

Ding Yi frowned slightly, thinking of a possibility:
"Could it be the influence of the wolf king's flesh and blood that attracted the wild wolf clan here?"
