Wasteland: My Items Can Be Infinitely Upgraded-Chapter 534 - 262: Town-breaking Beast Calamity, the Divine Dog’s Future (Part 2)
Thinking of this, Chen Shanshan calmed down and nodded steadily: 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶
"Understood, I’ll have Liu Qian continue empowering the grenades first, then arrange the combat squad to continue training."
"By the way, speaking of the combat squad, the teaching and training conducted by Duncan and the others have been very successful. Currently, our squads’ battle coordination is much better than before."
"Especially in the use of firearms, compared to only knowing how to aim and shoot before, there are now more tactical options and rotation of firepower support."
"In short, they already show some aspects of the professional soldiers from the Holy City, but they still need to experience some real battles to truly grow."
Lin Feng agreed with a hum; Chen Shanshan was right.
Now half of the combat squad members have become Evolvers. Their learning and mimicking speed cannot be compared with ordinary people. The remaining ordinary team members all possess Level 9 Enhancement strength and have climbed up from the bottom Deserters, so enduring hardships and being hardworking are just basic skills.
Other than some Wanderers brought by Ma Chenfeng, the personnel quality of this group is actually much higher than the permanent residents of the other five major villages, all having the potential to become Evolvers.
Lin Feng originally intended to have them experience the rebellion stirred up by the Li family to gain experience.
Unexpectedly, under Lord Bishop’s strategic alliances, the situation in Oasis was smoothed out, and the likelihood of fierce battles plummeted.
This peaceful resolution was not what Lin Feng hoped for, but being able to assist Father Su An in controlling the situation was beneficial for the honorary deputy mayor’s title to be realized, so Lin Feng agreed to the bishop’s arrangement.
Now, with a group of Desert Wolf Race causing trouble, the impact could be much more intense than the Salvation Army.
Lin Feng’s ambitions naturally grew.
A mere migration highway permit wasn’t enough to satisfy him.
If possible, Lin Feng hoped to directly seize the Oasis Battleship, at the very least acquire its core power system, or even just the blueprints.
This way, Lin Feng could use the upgrade system to directly construct his own Level 30 Town-Class Battleship and establish a medium to large settlement, paving the way for future ascension to a Tier Three King.
To achieve this, Oasis Battleship and Oasis Town need to struggle on the verge of death, suffering heavy damage, and barely escape.
In this way, as long as Lin Feng can remain at full strength by then, he will become the strongest in Oasis and truly control the situation.
Therefore, he can’t act rashly or let the Desert Wolf Race easily find out his true strength and be deterred.
This way, not only will the rebels like the Li family not face severe blows, but the Church can also preserve its strength to the greatest extent.
To be the ultimate winner, one can make a decisive move at the most critical moment to achieve a conclusive effect.
Lin Feng can’t leave the Oasis Battleship; the worsening situation requires him to stay there.
But in this way, the convoy he just established has to rely on its own strength, just like the other five major villages, to directly face the attacking Evolved Desolate Wolves from all directions.
Thinking of this, Lin Feng continued giving orders:
"Let Captains Ah Lian and Ma Chenfeng, who are responsible for training, continue the training in accordance with Duncan’s family teachings. At the same time, from now on, the entire convoy enters full alert status, setting up multiple watchposts, taking turns on duty, and maintaining surveillance for 20 hours a day."
"Also, distribute the previously ordered weapons and the rapid-firing grenade launchers made by Xiang Wentian, even the auxiliary staff in the later stages should be equipped with large-caliber rifles."
"The combat squad starts live ammunition duty; if they encounter an emergency situation, do not hesitate, shoot directly!"
Chen Shanshan nodded, noting everything down.
Lin Feng thought for a moment; the fundamental reason for this Desert Wolf attack actually lies with himself, related to him blasting the tunnel inside the Taishan Ruins.
The ultimate goal of the Desert Wolves attacking Oasis Town is actually to inherit the Tier Three body that has been dead for many years in the Wolf King’s Tomb in the Fallen Wolf Valley.
But this is also Lin Feng’s objective.
He needs to cultivate multiple reliable aides with strength at the Tier Three King level to address the ultimate goal of Purity Evolution in the future: to become a God above Tier Three.
By then, he will become the common enemy of all top forces, especially the Holy Spring Sect, a theocratic nation. Its fanatical worship of the Master of the Holy Spring puts the Holy See at odds with the deities worshiped by other forces.
How could they tolerate the emergence of a new god under their rule?
Therefore, while continuously becoming stronger, Lin Feng also needs to gather enough power to counter the old order of the Wasteland World.
And the Tier Three Wolf King buried in the Taishan Ruins was once a top King Beast in the late Tier Three, possessing a Level 39 evolution.
Its strength was second only to the strongest evolutionary lives among the All Gods during the era when the All Gods didn’t appear. Its existence could influence the current world’s power structure.
Such an immortal Tier Three body, even after thousands of years of consumption and release, still retains at least the power of origin at the late middle stage of Tier Three.
If the Divine Dog can inherit the Wolf King’s legacy, becoming a new individual Tier Three Wolf King, it could have at least mid to late Tier Three evolutionary power.
It would also qualify to participate in the new round of evolutionary competition in the upcoming dark era, creating its own evolutionary legend.
So, in a sense, the Desert Wolf Pack appearing outside the Oasis right now are not the Divine Dog’s companions and clan but one of its competitors.
Killing these Evolved Desolate Wolves, absorbing their Life Source Material, and completing the transformation will be the start of the Divine Dog’s journey of evolution.
Even if the Desert Wolf Race ends up being wiped out, as long as the Divine Dog can inherit the Wolf King’s body and its will, it could still radiate genetically to assimilate a new evolved wolf pack.
This is also the ultimate path of life evolution.
When an individual’s strength far surpasses the impact of environmental changes, traditional reproduction will no longer be the only way to continue genes.
Converging all genetic samples of the race, merging them into one to birth the strongest individual of the race, then feeding back to the race to expand its living space, is also one evolutionary choice.
Thus, how to let the evolved Divine Dog understand his painstaking efforts is one of Lin Feng’s main objectives.
So, after explaining everything to Chen Shanshan, he contacted Ding Yi through the main command center.
The latter was conducting research on experimental subjects.
Meanwhile, the purification of insect poison continues, aiming to weaken the Rock Horse Warriors sent by the enemy and capture the Rock-Horned Horse Herd during the potential rebellion by the Li family.
Since the Divine Dog eating meat beside him had completed its evolutionary transformation, research on Desert Wolf genes and the development of the Werewolf Evolution Agent are temporarily halted.
Tian Wanrong, who became an experimental subject, was handed over to Ding Yi’s recruited assistant Han Yu Yu for care and record-keeping.
Upon receiving the message, Ding Yi quickly came to the driver’s seat to contact Lin Feng.
The latter instructed Ding Yi to clear out others and then briefly explained the wolf race’s attack and the subsequent plans:
"The Desert Wolf Race is about to attack Oasis Town; I must stay at the Oasis Battleship to ensure the battleship is intact."
"The safety and protection of the convoy can only be entrusted to you, Chen Shanshan, and the two captains for discussion and arrangement."
"Also, once the Evolved Desolate Wolves get close enough, the Divine Dog will surely sense something, and the wolf pack will also perceive the presence of a similar aura in the human settlement..."
"I don’t want the Divine Dog to be in trouble when that happens."
"It had the intellect of a six or seven-year-old human child in the late enhancement stage. Now, after completing its evolutionary transformation, it should have the understanding level of at least a ten-year-old human."
"It should understand who its true friends are and who are actually its enemies."
"If it doesn’t understand, you have to teach it to understand."
Ding Yi nodded, looking towards the laboratory behind, where the Tier Three Gene Cells preserved at low temperature in the glass box seemed to be getting active.
Ding Yi frowned slightly, thinking of a possibility:
"Could it be the influence of the Wolf King’s flesh and blood attracting the Desert Wolf Race here?"
