Apocalypse: My Items Can Upgrade Infinitely
Chapter 156 - 123: Copying Tanks, Electromagnetic Pulse
Fortunately, Li Feng did this after dinner.
So even though a portion of his energy was drawn away, it didn’t affect his overall state.
As the second and third Flying Wing Tanks were successively synthesized and brought into existence, the crowd erupted in even more excited cheers, dancing for joy.
It took a full half-hour, but once the last of the materials were used, Li Feng finally completed the synthesis of the eighth Tank Replica. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮
By now, the dinner that had just filled his stomach was completely gone, all of it absorbed and consumed as energy.
Keep in mind, Li Feng was a powerful level 25 Tier Two Awakener with a Physique Attribute of 570. This made him over fifty times stronger than an ordinary person and more than ten times stronger than the average Awakener...
In a single meal, Li Feng could now eat five packs of combat rations, which was equivalent to the normal meals for ten people.
All that food was completely consumed by just eight uses of his Copy ability.
In the future, when Li Feng has to Copy Orange Quality equipment or Replicas on par with Tier Three...
...how to obtain enough Energy would also become a problem.
But by then, Li Feng would have already advanced beyond Tier Three and become invincible, so he naturally wouldn’t have to worry too much.
Suppressing the hunger gnawing at his stomach, Li Feng announced to the crowd that the new Tanks were ready to be crewed:
"Each one carries twenty people, which is just what we need."
"But the drivers will need special training. Who wants to volunteer?"
"Of course, being a driver means you won’t get the enhancement Energy from killing Zerg. So, as compensation, I’ll give the selected Tank drivers a chance to be directly promoted to Tier One Late Stage Perfection. That’s a lot easier than accumulating kills."
Hearing the first part of the deal, the team members who had been eager to volunteer started to hesitate.
But with the Sergeant Major’s promise, their excitement was reignited.
Becoming a driver meant a fast track to Tier One.
They weren’t worried about the Sergeant Major being unable to deliver on his promise. After all, during the trial run that morning, they had captured over a hundred Black Spine Living Zergs—enough for them to be promoted directly to Tier One Late Stage.
Earlier, while everyone was waiting with bated breath, several large trucks had arrived to take away the hundred-plus Black Spine Living Zergs from the Land Patrol Battleship’s storage compartment.
Each one of those was a living, breathing opportunity for enhancement. No one doubted the truth or validity of the Sergeant Major’s promise.
...
Li Feng waved his hands, signaling for silence:
"Alright, for registration and review, go find Chief Captain Li Ran and the battleship’s Captain Chen."
"Tonight, everyone will do a test run. Follow Captain Chen’s lead and do a few laps nearby. Don’t go too far."
Li Feng turned and glanced at Chen Yanyan, who was standing on the bow of the Land Patrol Battleship behind him, and gave her a nod.
...
A short while later, as Li Feng was eating his rations, Chen Yanyan was already leading the selected driver candidates out of the temporary camp at the Taihu Lake Service Area.
Since there were no longer any supplies to guard in the camp, everyone else boarded the Tanks to get a taste of what it felt like to charge across a battlefield.
Only Li Feng was left, along with Shen Jie and Zhang Liying, who were walking out of the hotel on the second floor of the rest building.
Li Feng finished the last of his pre-packaged braised beef, looked at them clad in their Red Profound Armor, nodded, and spoke:
"Everyone else is out. Let’s go. It’s time we tested out the abilities of your new forms."
Just then, the phone in Li Feng’s pocket rang.
He took it out and saw it was Ding Chenghai calling.
When he answered, Ding Fatty’s voice was barely a whisper:
"Li Feng, we’re in big trouble!"
"A new type of Tier Two Zerg has appeared within the Zerg Race."
"It can release an electromagnetic pulse that destroys communications equipment and advanced guided weapons... including modern fighter jets..."
"You have to... KSHHH... remember to check... KSHHHK..."
"KSHHH... KSHHHHH..."
"Call failed. Please try again later..."
Li Feng hung up and looked east, in the direction of the Hai City Mother Empress, his brow furrowed in thought.
