Wasteland: My items are infinitely upgraded.

Chapter 316 The Membership Model of Life Farm: Feigning Compliance
Faced with Han Tao's enthusiastic invitation, Lin Feng immediately feigned interest, and his tone became delighted:
"Oh? Then thank you for your kindness, Governor Han. I will contact you as soon as I am settled in the Holy City."

Seeing that his plan had succeeded, Han Tao immediately pressed his advantage:

"Then it's a deal!"

"However, there is one more thing I would like to make clear to Chief Lin in advance. That is, the evolution resources at the Life Farm, especially those related to the Rockhorn Horse pathway, are still very affordable in the early stages of the second tier. The internal member price is even cheaper than what the Hunting Wilderness Guild sells."

"But starting from the mid-second stage, the price of life essence related to the Rock Horse Beast will suddenly increase. Many leaders of second-rate forces often need to accumulate for hundreds of years to exchange for one."

"Moreover, second-tier mid-stage life essence, as a high-level evolutionary resource, has always been in a state of being priceless and unavailable. Unless it is exchanged with resources of the same level, it is not qualified to be exchanged with evolutionary jerky or points alone."

"In addition to these traditional purchasing channels, there is another special way, which is to join the life farm and become one of its members."

As he spoke, Han Tao gestured for Lin Feng to walk and talk.

Xu Wanfeng has dealt with the wolf sentries on the nearby hilltops one by one.

Compared to Han Tao, who is a Rock Horse Warrior, Xu Wanfeng, who has evolved to the second stage, is obviously more suitable to assassinate the low-level evolved Wasteland Wolf.

Before the final operation, Han Tao began to aggressively promote his own Life Farm:

"Similar to the hunter license status of the Wilderness Hunter Guild, Life Farm does not issue mandatory orders to restrict its members, but fully respects the personal freedom of its members and adopts an equal trading method."

"The biggest difference between the Life Farm and the Wilderness Hunter Guild lies in the restrictions on identity verification. Unlike the Wilderness Hunter Guild, which allows anyone to join as a one-star hunter simply by advancing to the second-tier evolver..."

"The Life Farm operates on a membership system, which is equivalent to the high-end club model of the old Earth era. I heard that Chief Lin is a remnant of the ancient era, so he should know more about this system than I do."

"After becoming a member of the farm, you can enjoy many benefits, including discounts on resource purchases and access to advanced biotechnology. The most important benefit is the qualification to redeem or enjoy advanced evolutionary resources in advance!"

"The late Li family patriarch, Li Hao, was one of the farm's senior members, which is why he was able to obtain the life essence of a late-stage second-tier rock horse behemoth, which was still in the clinical stage!"

"The requirement to become a member is to provide the Life Farm with valuable biotechnology or genetic templates for second-order life."

"These might be somewhat useful to large powers, but for us second-tier beings, even if we got our hands on them, we could only stare at them helplessly."

"Transferring it to the Life Farm will not only bring you a generous reward, but also make you a member and allow you to enjoy many conveniences. It's a win-win situation!"

"Back then, Li Hao contributed a piece of meat scraps from a mid-stage second-tier rock horse behemoth, which upgraded him from a regular member to a senior member."

"If his power grab succeeds this time, and he breaks through to become a late-stage Rock Horse Warrior, he can rise from a senior member to a core member of the Life Farm based on these achievements."

"At that time, even the most core technologies of the farm will be given priority to core members."

Having heard Han Tao say this, Lin Feng had already guessed his true purpose, so he went along with it and said:
"Oh? Is there such a good thing?"

"I wonder what level of biotechnology is needed to gain the favor of the Life Farm. As for the evolved flesh and blood of a mid-stage Tier 2 Rock Horse Behemoth, it's something you can only dream of in this lifetime, so let's not even hope for it..."

Upon hearing this, Han Tao immediately replied:
"No, it's not that complicated. Biotechnology is something that people like us can never reach in this lifetime. Only scientific and technical personnel like the Salvation Army leader, Bai Ye, have the opportunity to decipher or identify it."

"Our only chance is to exchange relevant biological genes."

"For example, I used the genetic sequence of the Rockhorn Horse within my own body to exchange for a second-stage early Rockhorn Horse evolution agent and the status of an entry-level member."

"The membership system of Life Farm is divided into three levels: entry, formal, and advanced. As for core members, they are already high-level members of the farm and are essentially partners of this large, first-class force, so they are not included in the system."

"These three levels offer discounts of 10%, 30%, and a minimum of 50%, respectively."

"It can save a lot of money on purchasing evolution jerky and source evolution agent."

"At the same time, the quality of resources obtained from the Life Farm also increases with the membership level. Beginner level is the early stage, formal member level is the mid stage, and advanced member level can obtain the late stage."

"And a strong person like Chief Lin has awakened a very attractive firearm ability. The combination of the two makes the value of the genetic sequence contained in his body several times higher than that of us ordinary evolved beings."

"Getting a basic membership at the Life Farm will definitely be no problem."

"However, given Chief Lin's potential and personal ambitions, he will obviously not be content with stopping at the early or middle stage of the second tier in his evolutionary path. In his lifetime, he will definitely want to see the power of the late stage of the second tier, just like Li Hao, the head of the Li family."

"And that requires more valuable materials..."

Lin Feng frowned slightly and waved his hand:

"This thing isn't so easy to get."

"The herds of Rockhorse are elusive across the wasteland, especially the late-stage Tier 2 Rockhorse behemoths. Their numbers in the entire wasteland can be counted on one hand. Most Rockhorse warriors would never witness such a colossal thirty-meter-tall beast in their entire lives..."

"Let alone someone as insignificant as me?"

Seeing Lin Feng's modesty, Han Tao laughed heartily.

After his smile faded, he changed the subject:

"Late-stage Tier 2 rock horse behemoths are indeed hard to find. Even in the Life Farm, it seems that only two or three have been encountered in thousands of years since records began, and only the genetic sequence of one of them was obtained..."

"But who says that the genes of late-stage second-tier rock horse behemoths only appear in rock horse behemoths? Although they are the source of everything, the birth of the evolutionary path allows these genes, which originally only existed in alien races, to be transplanted into humans through evolution."

"Since it's hard to find late-stage Rock Horse Beasts, the Life Farm has naturally changed its approach and started cultivating late-stage second-tier beings from among the Rock Horse Warriors."

"However, this technology is not yet mature. The genes of the Rock Horse Beast are too intense in the later stages, and ordinary level 26 Rock Horse Warriors can hardly withstand them. Instead, they will be overwhelmed by the Rock Horned Horse's genes and eventually lose control of their bodies."

"But this risky fusion is not without its merits."

"On the contrary, the rock horse warriors who dared to conduct human experiments on themselves were the pioneers of our rock horn horse path."

"They gave their lives to leave us, their descendants, with valuable experience, paving the way for the future."

"Therefore, the corpses of these late-stage rock horse warriors are also very precious and rare high-level genetic resources, second only to true late-stage second-tier rock horse behemoths."

At this point, Han Tao finally revealed his true intentions:
"I remember that Li Hao, the head of the Li family, seemed to have advanced to a late-stage existence during the ultimate battle with the leader of the wolf clan. Afterwards, his body was handed over to you by the church."

"As long as a small part of his flesh and blood is preserved and handed over to the Life Farm, Chief Lin will definitely be given a formal membership and can exchange it for a mid-stage second-tier Rockhorn Horse Source Essence." "No, if it's Li Hao's entire corpse, selling it to the Life Farm will definitely allow you to advance directly to the mid-stage second tier, while also granting you a high-level membership, allowing Chief Lin to participate in the later stages of the plan."

"Of course, as I said before, the Life Farm's research on the evolutionary path of the Rockhorse is clearly not just about conquering the late-stage second-order evolution..."

"As a large, top-tier power, their goal is to completely master this path, transforming it from a mediocre one into a true path to becoming a third-tier king!"

"Thus benefiting millions of Rockhorn-based evolvers..."

"That's too far off for me, but Chief Lin is bound to achieve great things in the future. Right now, he can obtain the qualification of a senior member with Li Hao's corpse. At that time, he will definitely become a core member and participate in the third-tier horse king project!"

At this point, Han Tao's gaze towards Lin Feng was filled with fervor.

This was a genuine expression of his feelings, after all, both ensuring the recovery of Li Hao's body and introducing such a powerful rock horse warrior were great achievements.

Two major achievements are enough to elevate Han Tao's status in the Life Farm.

It's not impossible to advance to the mid-stage of the second tier Rock Horse Warrior and become a senior member of the farm.

At the same time, it also allows me to get in touch with Lin Feng...

As the saying goes, "When one person attains enlightenment, even his chickens and dogs ascend to heaven!"
Han Tao was already imagining the wonderful days when Lin Feng would promote him to be his right-hand man after becoming a core member, and he would hold a high position and act arrogantly in the branches of various communities.

Unexpectedly, the man behind the helmet and mask was now wearing a cold smile and nodding in agreement.
"I never imagined that the Life Farm had such a grand plan. If I could become the only Tier 3 Horse King and influence millions of evolvers in the wasteland, my power would probably rival that of a top-tier power like the Holy See!"

"It seems that a trip to the Life Farm is really necessary."

"At that time, we'll still need Governor Han to make some introductions."

Han Tao smiled with satisfaction:

"Of course! Of course! Bringing such a promising member to the farm is a great achievement for me as well."

"Moreover, if the upcoming decapitation operation can actually kill a second-tier wild wolf behemoth, its evolved flesh and blood, rich in life essence, will be priceless!"

"When it is handed over to the Life Farm, it can be considered a merit, and can be exchanged for a large amount of second-tier evolution jerky, as well as a membership level."

Lin Feng nodded and replied:

"So the next operation will also depend on Governor Han's cooperation and efforts. Don't worry, after killing the giant wolf, everyone can use their own abilities to take its corpse."

"Although you will be involved in dangerous close combat, once the kill is completed, you will be the first to come into contact with the second-tier corpse."

"I hope you two will leave some for me then."

Han Tao cupped his hands in greeting, outwardly agreeing, and said:
"That's right, that's right, we will definitely do our best to ensure the completion of Chief Lin's plan and mission!"

After turning around, he immediately started to grumble to himself, "I'm risking my life, and you're just hiding behind me, pulling the trigger."

They may say nice things, but if they fail to defeat their opponent, it's themselves, the ones in close combat, who will bear the risk of death!

The spoils of war should have been divided among the major contributors, which was something they were entitled to, but Lin Feng called it a benefit instead.

With their own ulterior motives, the two arrived one after the other at the back of the hill on the right side of the canyon, and crawled down to observe the enemy's situation.

At this moment, Xu Wanfeng, who had just dealt with the nearby sentries, also groped his way to the two of them.

Han Tao closed his eyes and carefully sensed the surroundings. Soon, he found the last giant wolf in a quiet valley in the right-hand mountain range.

Han Tao lowered his voice and pointed to the target location:
"It's inside that rock, probably a pit. Although it tried very hard to hide its presence, it still couldn't hide from the Rock Horse Warrior."

"President Xu, you can go and investigate first. Then I'll release my aura to lure it into attacking. After that, you can come to support it and hinder its pursuit. This will make it take some risky actions to break the stalemate and expose a weakness..."

"Then Chief Lin can seize the opportunity at the mountaintop, pull the trigger, and kill the enemy!"

Han Tao quickly formulated a specific operational plan in just a few words.

Everyone here is a second-tier evolved being, and Lin Feng's experience in combat at this level is clearly not as extensive as theirs.

Furthermore, this involves Xu Wanfeng and Han Tao risking their lives and fortunes...

So Lin Feng wisely refrained from interrupting, allowing the two to reach a conclusion on their own. He then walked aside, expended ten health points, and combined the level 22 armor-piercing cannon and the high-speed explosive cannon at his waist into a level 27 thermal annihilation cannon.

As a powerful weapon that severely damaged Lang Ao, it naturally posed no problem in dealing with the early-stage Wild Wolf Beasts.

On the other hand, Xu Wanfeng did not object to Han Tao's plan. As a Rock Horse Warrior, it was naturally best that Han Tao was willing to take the initiative to get involved and let Xu Wanfeng play a supporting role.

After finalizing the specific strategy, Lin Feng added a reminder before taking action:
"If the plan changes, for example, if the two giant wolves that were besieging the Salvation Army come to their aid, we must withdraw from the battlefield immediately."

"Don't be reckless. I will provide fire support for you two from a distance to restrain the giant wolf beast."

Xu Wanfeng and Han Tao exchanged a glance and nodded.

He then turned and jumped to the top of the mountain, and then leaped into two directions.

Han Tao charged straight for the giant wolf's hiding place on the opposite slope of the valley!

Xu Wanfeng then advanced further to the right, reaching the designated ambush position.

This is a scree slope with no rocks to block the view.

It can work well with Lin Feng at the top of the mountain to snipe from a distance!

As the operation began, Han Tao released his aura, and the dormant wolf beast suddenly opened its eyes.

Amidst a sea of ​​blood-red vertical pupils

Besides excitement, he was filled with murderous intent!
