Wasteland: My items are infinitely upgraded.

Chapter 325 The Final Battle!
Lin Feng was equally aware that Bai Ye alone could not hold out for long against the attacking wolf Ao from behind.

The destruction of the Salvation Army's main convoy by Wolf was inevitable.

The only difference is how many can be saved.

Therefore, Lin Feng was not surprised by Han Tao's escape.

He just didn't expect that this guy also didn't have much confidence in his own Oasis Town.

The escape route led to the mountains on the right.

There was only a wasteland there. Even if they escaped the mountains where the Steppenwolves lived, they could not find any settlements and could only wander around the wasteland.

Within a radius of thousands of kilometers, it is difficult to find a safe shelter.

The wild wolf clan's keen sense of smell allows them to pinpoint the scent left by the rock horned horse within a radius of a thousand miles.

Of course, a mere early-stage Tier 2 Rock Horse Warrior is clearly not enough to make the Wasteland Wolf Clan abandon their attack on the Salvation Army and Oasis Town...

However, if the remaining aura of the Rockhorn Horse is strong enough to rival the mid-stage of the second tier, then it would be a second-best option for the Wasteland Wolf Clan, especially for the second-tier Wasteland Wolf behemoths led by Wolf Ao.

After all, the initial purpose of Lang Ao leading the Wilderness Wolf Clan to attack Oasis Town was mainly to kill Li Hao, who was in the mid-stage of the second tier. As a Rock Horse Warrior, Li Hao's mid-stage evolution level would help Lang Ao's three offspring, who were in the early stage of the second tier, to enter the mid-stage of the second tier.

This marked a further advancement to the late stage of the second tier. More than two years later, the ruins of Mount Tai, which had been covered by the forbidden zone of the blazing sun, were rediscovered...

Wolf Ao led his chosen successors to take over the Wolf King's legacy in the Wolf King's Tomb, directly advancing to become the new third-tier Wolf King.

As for the other evolved beings in Oasis Town, they are an extra gain from this plunder, helping the Wasteland Wolf Clan to make up for the losses incurred in launching the war and expand the clan's strength level.

This will lay a solid foundation for the upcoming continuous battles.

Therefore, for the Salvation Army and Oasis Town, the only way to break the deadlock is to first inflict serious damage on the Wasteland Wolves, so that the Wolves' losses far outweigh their gains.

Based on the discussion and calculations between Father Suan and Lin Feng...

At least four thousand evolved wild wolves need to be killed, and Oasis Town also needs to have the remaining strength to put up a last-ditch effort and fight to the death.

This would allow Wolf Ao, the leader of the Wilderness Wolf Clan, to reduce the intensity of his attacks, minimize losses, and even begin negotiations with the humans.

Alternatively, there is another way: to launch a devastating attack on the wolf clan's elite forces.

This means killing early-stage Tier 2 wild wolf behemoths, as well as a large number of late-stage Tier 1 leader-level giant wolves, thus reducing the wolf clan's top combat power.

At the same time, we should strike back hard against the wolf, and it would be best to demonstrate weapons or combat capabilities that can directly threaten the opponent.

As long as Lang Ao himself feels threatened, this ancient behemoth can quickly calm down.

This step requires the help of the second-tier beings in Oasis Town and the Salvation Army to do everything possible to achieve it.

For example, forming a second-tier elite squad to delve deep into the mountains where the wasteland wolves reside, and conducting special operations against the second-tier wasteland wolf behemoths.

As for threatening Wolf Ao himself, who is at the peak of the second tier, it would require the Heat Melt Annihilation Cannon in Lin Feng's hands, as well as the assistance of the Oasis Battleship.

The battleships' heavy artillery on the Oasis warship, as well as the Prism Curse currently controlled by the bishop, can pose a threat to Wolf Ao in open areas.

Moreover, its destructive power is even higher than that of the Thermal Annihilation Cannon.

It is sufficient to achieve a devastating impact upon a hit.

However, the drawback is that these are all long-range offensive methods. Even if Lin Feng has portable artillery, it needs to be fired from two or three hundred meters away, and it is too restricted by the terrain, with no obstruction between it and the target.

Neither the Salvation Army nor Oasis Town possesses any close-combat skills capable of threatening Wolf Ao.

Aside from Lin Feng's level 26 armor-piercing wolf spear, which can only pose a certain threat to Lang Ao and weaken its combat ability when it is stained with some of the wolf king's flesh and blood, the chances of it inflicting a serious injury in one blow are extremely slim.

After all, apart from the bishop, there are no other late-stage Tier 2 beings in the Salvation Army and Oasis Town, so they are confident that they can engage in close combat with Wolf Ao.

Even when Bai Ye was dealing with Lang Ao, he relied on his spatial abilities to float in mid-air and keep his distance from Lang Ao.

According to Lin Feng's original plan, he would find an opportunity to severely injure Lang Ao with the Heat Melt Annihilation Cannon in his hand, and then use the level 26 Armor-Piercing Wolf Spear, which was carrying the flesh and blood of the Wolf King, to directly hit Lang Ao's damaged second-tier body.

In this way, the third-tier power within the opponent's body can be suppressed, preventing them from quickly healing their injuries, thereby achieving the effect of intimidation and forcing them to retreat.

Unfortunately, the only opportunity that was gained by sacrificing the bishop and Li Hao was lost because of Lang Ao's decisiveness and the rescue by the other wild wolf beasts, which prevented Lin Feng from taking action and missed the best opportunity to press his advantage.

To continue doing this, the only option is to let Bai Ye take a risk to create an opportunity for the Annihilation Cannon to hit.

Then, he was given the armor-piercing wolf spear to confront Wolf Ao.

In this situation, the aura of a mid-stage Tier 2 Rock Horse Warrior left behind by Han Tao when he fled could become another option for Lang Ao to abandon the attack.

Lin Feng originally intended to use Li Hao's corpse as the bargaining chip in the final deal.

After all, the evolved flesh and blood of a late-stage second-tier rock horse behemoth is far more precious than that of a mid-stage one.

The late-stage flesh and blood inside Li Hao's corpse were originally intended for Ding Yi to use for research, and also for the divine dog to advance to the late-stage second tier.

Now they want to use it to get Lang Ao to lead his troops away...

Only a small portion can be kept for experimental research and to be sold to the Life Farm after arriving in the Holy City.

However, doing so is not very safe. After all, Lang Ao, who has obtained the flesh and blood of the late-stage Rock Horse Giant, may use it to heal his injuries or make the early-stage Wild Wolf Giant even stronger and then make a comeback.

However, by then Lin Feng had already left Oasis Town and was heading to the Holy City with his convoy. Oasis Town had probably been taken over by the Holy City's bishopric, and its fate was no longer of much concern to Lin Feng.

But Han Tao's escape, or more accurately, his defection, has done Lin Feng a great favor.

After all, the wolf was far away on the Oasis Avenue after the hunt for the escaped rock horse warriors.

Han Tao can not only lure away the high-end combat power of the Wasteland Wolf Clan, but also buy precious time for the escape of Oasis Town.

It is much safer and more secure than trading Li Hao's flesh and blood.

Thinking of this, Lin Feng remained unmoved by Han Tao's desertion, and even watched his figure disappear into the mountains on the right.

The next moment, Lin Feng immediately consumed ten health points to combine the armor-piercing cannon and the high-explosive rapid-fire cannon in his hand into a level 27 thermal annihilation cannon.

Then he fired a shell at the rear of the Salvation Army convoy, where the wolves were gathered.

At this moment, the Salvation Army convoy had all withdrawn. Behind the corner, besides the evolved wild wolf, only Bai Ye, who was locked in combat with Lang Ao, remained.

This terrain and these conditions are ideal for the use of the Annihilation Cannon, so there's no need to worry about it affecting the convoy members.

After all, the slope and rocks at the corner can block most of the damage from the shock wave.

Lin Feng also wanted to use this to intimidate the nearby wolf pack and to warn Lang Ao that he still had weapons that could severely injure it again.

More importantly, the Salvation Army had already successfully broken through halfway and was less than 500 meters away from escaping the mountains and reaching the flat Oasis Road.

This was also Wolf's last chance to intercept the Salvation Army.

Therefore, synthesizing the Molten Annihilator Cannon in advance was also a preparation for a decisive battle with Wolf Ao. At this moment, as Lin Feng pulled the trigger, the Molten Annihilator Cannon accurately passed through the gap at the corner and hit a group of evolved wild wolves behind him.

The fireball from the explosion rose up with a violent bang, transforming into a mushroom cloud a hundred meters high.

The shockwave generated a sweltering heat wave in less than 0.1 seconds, sweeping across an area of ​​hundreds of meters.

Even the evolved wild wolves at the epicenter of the explosion, including the leader-level giant wolves at the late first-tier stage, had their limbs shattered and their flesh and bones dehydrated and carbonized under the scorching heat of thousands of degrees...

It has lost all its usefulness.

The terrifying power of the Thermal Annihilation Cannon is like using a cannon to kill a mosquito when used to attack life forms below Tier 2.

Not only could it not make up for the losses incurred from using it, but after being burned by the high temperature of the explosion, there was absolutely nothing to gain.

However, when used to intimidate the enemy, it is even more effective than the Oasis battleship's heavy cannons.

After all, after the explosion, even the ground was scorched and devastated, and no life form below the third rank could survive at the center of the explosion.

The explosion after the corner naturally also affected Wolf Ao, who was trying to break free from White Night's interference and charge into the Salvation Army convoy.

Although he wasn't directly hit by the Annihilation Cannon, the heat wave and shockwave still brought back unpleasant memories for Lang Ao.

The high temperature of several hundred degrees Celsius burned its head, turning it red. The damage was not significant, but the warning was strong.

Wolf Ao immediately turned and leaped back, charging towards the hillsides on either side.

At this moment, Bai Ye, who was originally exhausted, also took this opportunity to catch his breath.

However, after crossing the corner, Lang Ao did not launch an attack directly, but instead went down the slope to the other side.

They were separated from the main Salvation Army's advance route by only one mountain.

This way, you don't have to worry about being hit by a gun-wielding mutant in the Salvation Army.

At the same time, it can also find opportunities to kill the enemy.

Once the distance closes, unless the other party is determined to die together, they will never pull the trigger within 100 meters, resulting in mutual destruction.

Moreover, even in close-range attacks, Lang Ao is confident that he will suffer less damage than his opponent, and at the same time, he can recover faster than a human second-tier evolver thanks to the foundation of his massive body.

Seeing Lang Ao's figure disappear behind him, and after breaking free from Bai Ye's restraint and entering the hillsides on either side, Lin Feng immediately focused his attention, sensing the aura emanating from the other party.

The muzzle of the Melt Annihilator Cannon in his hand was pointed diagonally upwards at the sky.

If Lang Ao attacks, with its massive body exceeding twenty meters, it will surely pounce down and lock onto Cheng Linfeng as its target.

Therefore, the best way to deal with this is to directly fire into the sky and let the shells hit the wolf in mid-air.

Even if this attack hits, the Salvation Army's main convoy, including Lin Feng himself, will be hit by the shockwave of the Annihilation Cannon's heat wave...

But enduring the aftershocks of the explosion is never as good as being devoured by a wolf when it gets close.

As for Bai Ye behind him, seeing that Lang Ao had broken free from his restraints and was preparing to launch a surprise attack on the main convoy of the Salvation Army, he quickly took the spatial nodes he had set up and went to pursue him.

However, at this moment, Bai Ye's remaining spatial power was less than 30%, which could at most restrain Lang Ao for another two or three minutes.

It would take the Salvation Army at least five minutes to advance the last 500 meters.

So, just as Han Tao and Lin Feng had predicted, Bai Ye alone was simply not enough to protect the Salvation Army and allow them to break out safely from the encirclement of wolves.

Even after Bai Ye was exhausted, Lang Ao was still able to launch a devastating attack on the Salvation Army before the aid from Oasis Town arrived.

At the same time, Bai Ye, who is physically exhausted, is also at risk of being killed by Lang Ao.

Faced with such a desperate situation, Bai Ye made a decisive decision not to take the initiative to attack, but instead chose to return to the Salvation Army and live and die with the team he had trained.

In reality, this was Baiye's second-best option, sacrificing others to ensure that a portion of the convoy and its members could be protected and safely escorted to Oasis Avenue.

Moreover, besides himself, the only one who can threaten Lang Ao right now is Lin Feng, who has the ability to use firearms.

Even if his powerful special cannon couldn't hit Lang Ao accurately, it could force Lang Ao to dodge and not dare to launch an attack easily.

It can be said that Lin Feng's existence is both a person that Lang Ao must kill and the only person that this ancient giant wolf fears.

At this moment, more important than protecting the main convoy of the Salvation Army is protecting Lin Feng, who possesses the ultimate weapon.

So the next moment, Bai Ye flew directly from the back of the convoy to Lin Feng's side.

By standing together on top of the cargo box of the heavy truck, they manipulated hundreds of floating spatial nodes around them, dispersing them on the roofs of the vehicles in front and behind, forming an area covered by spatial power.

Within this realm, Bai Ye possesses absolute control over space, making it akin to a man-made third-tier domain.

It was through this maneuver that Bai Ye was able to use his limited spatial power to contend with Lang Ao.

Unfortunately, the latter's reserves of third-tier power had accumulated to a terrifying level during thousands of years of dormancy, making it unrealistic to try to wear down the opponent by delaying them.

After completing the arrangements, Bai Ye immediately spoke:

"How confident are you in hitting Lang Ao? Do you need me to restrain him?"

At this moment, Lin Feng was on edge, constantly observing the mountainside and summit on his right, sensing that Lang Ao's peak second-tier aura was emanating from there.

Upon hearing Bai Ye's question, Lin Feng, while tightly gripping the Molten Annihilation Cannon in his hand, replied:
"The shortest distance from the top of the mountain is only two hundred meters. Although it can hit the target, the aftershock of the explosion will be like a cluster bomb. The shock wave, carrying the metal jet, will smash into the bottom of the convoy on the ground."

"My suggestion is that you use your spatial abilities as much as possible to protect the area above everyone's heads, otherwise one shot could cause hundreds of casualties!"

Bai Ye's expression was solemn. She hadn't expected the consequences to be so severe. In this way, the remaining power in her body could only sustain her through one more consumption at most.

Thinking of this, she immediately continued to ask:
"Are there any other options, such as moving to a different location to approach the front and rear of the vehicle?"

"This will minimize the damage to the team!"

Lin Feng frowned and shook his head:

"In that case, Wolf Ao will only launch an attack from the other side; his goal is to prevent the Salvation Army from escaping!"

"However, there are other solutions, but it depends on whether you dare to take them on!"

Bai Ye took a deep breath. Things had come to this point, and she had to deal with the threat of Lang Ao in order to allow her to advance to the third rank smoothly. Even if it meant taking a risk, it was worth it.

Time is running out for Bai Ye.

She is actually over eighty years old, and is almost past the optimal age for advancement.

An opportunity like this for Oasis Town is a once-in-a-century occurrence.

Lin Feng glanced sideways and saw Bai Ye nod firmly, then took out the wolf-tooth spear from behind his back:
"Take this and stab it into Lang Ao's body!"
