Wasteland: My Items Can Be Infinitely Upgraded-Chapter 525 - 258: Special Wolf Fang Armor-Piercing Cannon and Time Bomb

Apart from alloy wolf bones and fine steel fangs, Lin Feng also noticed another matter: Priest Su An possessed a special forging technique that maximized the use of these biological metal materials.

With the same amount of materials, Priest Su An could create more weapons with armor-piercing effects.

Lin Feng held a batch of Level 26 Refined Steel Wolf Fangs, obtained from killing a Tier Two Mid-Stage Corpse Wolf in the train tunnel on the 5th Floor of the underground shelter below the Taishan Ruins.

However, this Corpse Wolf only had a particularly mutated steel wolf fang with Level 26 strength, while the other alloy wolf bones were Level 24.

Therefore, Lin Feng deliberately kept some.

The amount wasn’t much.

Even though this Tier Two Mid-Term Giant Wolf had a huge body measuring 20 meters, with a head alone measuring four to five meters long, the four rows of sharp canine teeth inside numbered only around forty.

Among them, four canine teeth were the longest, reaching sixty centimeters, enough to pierce the armor of a Tier Two Mid-Stage Rock Horse Giant Beast, making them a powerful weapon of the Desert Giant Wolf against its prey.

But these four sixty-centimeter giant fangs, conical in shape, only had a base diameter of thirty centimeters, with a total weight calculated to be two to three hundred kilograms.

Adding the other molars used for chewing, the Level 26 Fine Steel Fangs totaled only five hundred kilograms.

Lin Feng used up two hundred kilograms during the upgrade of his Power Armor, leaving only three hundred kilograms now.

He originally planned to use them as raw materials for special armor-piercing rounds, synthesizing a batch with extremely strong armor-piercing effects.

But unlike the Wolf Fang Bullets of the past, now one Mutated Wolf Fang could fuse into one special armor-piercing round; however, the current caliber of the armor-piercing cannon is larger than a fist, nearly 150mm, and to achieve the strength needed to directly penetrate the armor of a Rock-Horned Horse, thorough Fine Steel Wolf Fang materials must be used.

Thus, one armor-piercing round would consume at least twenty kilograms of fine steel wolf fang, and the remaining three hundred kilograms could only synthesize up to fifteen Wolf Fang Armor-Piercing Cannons.

They could threaten a Tier Two Mid-Stage Rock Horse Giant Beast, naturally possessing armor-piercing ability against Tier Two Mid-Tier Rock Horse Armor.

This was also one of Lin Feng’s trump cards, specifically prepared for the Rock Horse Warriors among the Li Family’s Rebel Army.

However, the firing speed of the armor-piercing cannon posed a big problem, as Tier Two Rock Horse Warriors, wearing Rock Horse Armor, could briefly explode at speeds over 200 meters.

Especially when paired with Li Hao’s Level 25 battle armor, his Level 26 evolutionary power could reach supersonic speeds in an extreme state.

The cannon could only hit its target at speeds close to sound within a distance of three hundred meters.

Outside three hundred meters, Li Hao could dodge direct hits from the armor-piercing cannon.

But these weren’t the problems that troubled Lin Feng; the real issue arose within a hundred-meter range.

The effective killing range of the armor-piercing cannon was between three hundred meters and one hundred meters because within a hundred meters, Li Hao could charge directly at Lin Feng in his extreme burst state.

At that moment, both parties were within the explosion range of the armor-piercing cannon; if Lin Feng didn’t want to be affected by the blast, he had to engage in close combat with Li Hao.

In terms of close combat, clearly, Rock Horse Warriors held the advantage.

For this reason, Lin Feng specially added part of the Level 26 Fine Steel Wolf Fang using the Power of Branding during the upgrade of the Power Armor, resulting in the special close-combat weapon "Fine Steel Wolf Blade."

It’s akin to a suddenly ejecting mantis saber.

In sparring with Li Hao, Lin Feng used this attribute to break through Li Hao’s left ceramic steel armor and heavily injured Li Hao’s left shoulder.

However, to achieve this effect, Lin Feng also endured considerable damage, and in actual combat, he must risk his life for the chance of mutual destruction.

Only at the time, the Level 22 Armor-Piercing Cannon had fused with Level 23 Refined Steel Wolf Fang, not with Level 26 wolf fang, so five tungsten core armor-piercing rounds were needed to shatter the thick defense layer of Level 25 Rock Horse Armor at the same spot.

If Lin Feng had adopted Level 26 armor-piercing rounds, perhaps only one would have shattered Li Hao’s armor.

Yet, the remaining three hundred kilograms of wolf fang material could only synthesize fifteen special armor-piercing cannons.

And they’re still one-time use, unable to be restored.

Lin Feng only had fifteen chances to make a move.

Additionally, they couldn’t be used lightly, because once Li Hao and the Rebel Army got wind of this information, they would certainly prepare defenses.

Either never come within three hundred meters of him, or use ambush and assassination tactics to approach quietly and then make a lethal strike.

In short, if a batch of Level 26 Special Wolf Fang Armor-Piercing Cannons were synthesized, they could only be used as a final trump card; they couldn’t be used to intimidate before the battle began.

But if they’re not one-time use, Lin Feng could freely use them and make the Li Family, especially Li Hao, fear them thrice and feel helpless.

Yet Lin Feng hadn’t mastered Priest Su An’s forging technique, could only use fine steel wolf fangs to craft full-material close-combat weapons.

This meant that originally three hundred kilograms of wolf fang in Lin Feng’s hands could craft at most three heavy metal spears, while in Priest Su An’s hands, he could forge thirty spears.

Ninety percent of the gun body could use tungsten alloy, and the spearhead or blade could be replaced with fine steel wolf fangs with extremely strong armor-piercing effects.

In such a case, let alone Li Hao, even all Tier Two Rock Horse Warriors in the Rebel Army wearing Tier Two Rock Horse Armor wouldn’t be sufficient against the Church and Lin Feng’s side.
