Wasteland: My Items Can Be Infinitely Upgraded

Chapter 660 - 316: Life Farm’s Membership Model and Diplomatic Maneuvering

Lin Feng frowned slightly, waving his hand:

"How can stuff like this be so easily obtained?"

"The Rock-Horned Horse Herd comes and goes in the Wilderness without a trace, especially the Tier Two Late-stage Rock Horse Beasts; throughout the entire Wasteland, their numbers can be counted on one hand. Most Rock Horse Warriors, no matter how they try, would never witness such a colossal thirty-meter beast in their lifetime..."

"Let alone someone as inconspicuous as me?"

Seeing Lin Feng so modest, Han Tao laughed heartily.

After collecting his laughter, he shifted his tone and said:

"It’s true that Tier Two Late-stage Rock Horse Beasts are hard to find. Even in the Life Farm, as recorded, only two or three have been encountered over thousands of years, and only the genetic sequence of one of them was ever obtained..."

"But who said that the genes of a Tier Two Late-stage Rock Horse Beast only appear within Rock Horse Beasts? Although they are the source of everything, the emergence of evolution pathways allows these genes, originally found only in Alien Races, to be transplanted into human bodies through evolution."

"Since Late-stage Rock Horse Beasts are hard to find, the Life Farm naturally adopted a different approach, starting to cultivate Late-stage existences among the Rock Horse Warriors."

"However, the technology is not yet mature. The genes of Late-stage Rock Horse Beasts are too fierce, and an ordinary Level 26 Rock Horse Warrior would find it hard to endure, instead becoming overwhelmed by the Rock-Horned Horse genes, ultimately losing control of their body."

"But this risky fusion is not entirely without value."

"Quite the opposite, Rock Horse Warriors willing to experiment with their bodies are the pioneers exploring our Rock-Horned Horse Pathway."

"They use their lives to leave us valuable experiences for future generations, paving the way to the Late-stage."

"Therefore, the corpses of these Late-stage Rock Horse Warriors are also very precious and rare advanced genetic resources, second only to genuine Tier Two Late-stage Rock Horse Beasts."

At this point, Han Tao finally revealed his ulterior motive:

"I recall that Patriarch Li, Li Hao, seemed to have ascended to a Late-stage existence in his duel with the Wolf Race Leader, and thereafter, his corpse was transferred to you by the Church."

"By preserving a small portion of his blood and flesh, and handing it over to the Life Farm when the time comes, they will surely grant Leader Lin an official membership status, redeemable for Mid-Tier Two Rock-Horned Horse Source Material."

"No, if it’s the entire corpse of Li Hao, selling it to the Life Farm would directly promote you to Mid-Tier Two, and at the same time grant you Advanced Membership, allowing Leader Lin to participate in the Late-stage plans."

"Of course, as I mentioned earlier, the Life Farm’s research into the Rock-Horned Horse evolution pathway is clearly not just about conquering Tier Two Late-stage evolution..."

"As a large premier powerhouse, their goal is to fully master this pathway, transforming it from an unremarkable path into a genuine Tier Three King’s Road!"

"Thus benefiting millions of Evolvers on the Rock-Horned Horse Path..."

"This is too distant for me, but Leader Lin is sure to have significant accomplishments in the future. The corpse of Li Hao in your hand right now can secure you Advanced Membership, and surely you’ll become a Core Member and participate in the Tier Three Horse King Plan!"

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

This was his genuine emotion, considering retrieving Li Hao’s corpse and recommending such a powerful Rock Horse Warrior was a big feat.

Two major accomplishments would be enough to elevate Han Tao’s status within the Life Farm significantly.

Ascending to Mid-Tier Two Rock Horse Warrior, becoming an Advanced Member of the farm, is not beyond possibility either.

Moreover, establishing a connection with Lin Feng...

As the saying goes, when one person achieves Dao, their chickens and dogs ascend to heaven!

Han Tao was already envisioning the bright days ahead, when Lin Feng would become a Core Member, promote him, and make him his right-hand man, granting him high positions and arbitrary power in various Settlement branches.

Yet unexpectedly, beneath the mask on the forehead, the man was wearing a cold smile, nodding along in agreement:

"I didn’t expect the Life Farm to have such grand plans. If they could create the only Tier Three Horse King, influencing millions of Evolvers on the Wasteland, such grandeur could probably rival top-tier factions like the Holy See!"

"It seems necessary to visit the Life Farm."

"By then, I would need Governor Han to recommend me a bit."

Han Tao revealed a satisfied smile:

"Of course! Of course! Bringing such a promising member to the farm is also a credit for me."

"And in the upcoming beheading operation, if we can really kill a Tier Two Desolate Wolf Beast, its body filled with evolutionary flesh rich in Life Source Material will also be extremely valuable!"

"Delivering it to the Life Farm then can be counted as merit, exchangeable for a large amount of Tier Two Evolutionary Dried Meat and membership levels."

Lin Feng nodded, then replied:

"So for the upcoming action, I’ll rely on Governor Han’s cooperation and effort, don’t worry, once the Desolate Wolf Beast is killed, everyone can claim its body with their abilities."

"Although you’ll be involved in dangerous close combat, once you complete the kill, you’ll be the first to reach the Tier Two body."

"By then, I’d hope you two could leave a piece for me."

Han Tao cupped his hands, seemingly cooperative, and said:

"Of course, of course, I’ll give my all to ensure the completion of Leader Lin’s plan!"

Yet, turning his head, he immediately grumbled inwardly, that he’d risk his life in danger while this guy just stays in the back, pulling the trigger.

Though he sounds pleasant, if problems aren’t resolved, it’s the close combatant, himself, bearing the risk of death!

Sharing the majority of the spoils after the battle is what’s deserved, but hearing Lin Feng speak, it seems like a favor.

With their own ulterior motives, the two moved forward, one after the other, reaching behind the hill on the right side of the canyon, and crawled down to observe the enemy situation.

Just then, Xu Wanfeng, who had just taken out the nearby sentinels, approached the two.

Han Tao closed his eyes to feel for a moment, and he soon found the last Desolate Wolf Beast at a quiet valley bottom on the right mountain side.

Han Tao lowered his voice, pointing at the target:

"It’s in the rocks over there, probably a pit; though it has tried hard to hide its presence, in front of a Rock Horse Warrior, it’s still transparent."

"Wait for Chairman Xu to go exploring first, then I’ll unleash my aura to lure it to attack, and you’ll come in support to obstruct its pursuit, making it take risky moves to break the deadlock, thereby revealing its weakness..."

"Then Leader Lin seizes the moment, fires from the mountaintop, and kills the opponent!"

In just a few words, Han Tao quickly drafted a specific plan of action for the combat.

They are all Tier Two Evolvers, and clearly, Lin Feng lacks the experience of the other two in this level of combat.

Not to mention that both Xu Wanfeng and Han Tao were risking their lives...

So Lin Feng was careful not to interfere...

He knew this time, at least for the two of them, such a bold plan was already a brave move.

Thus in the execution, when Han Tao released his presence, the drowsy Desolate Wolf Beast was found, and he planned to lure it into taking initiative. Then, he would signal for aid while hindering its pursuit, risking everything to break the deadlock.

So in response to Governor Han’s plan, Xu Wanfeng had no objections, seeing that the Rock Horse Warrior was willing to plunge in himself and needed only support from the side.

There was a slope of gravel here, with no rocks obstructing the view.

It could work well to assist Lin Feng on the mountaintop in conducting long-range sniping!

The operation commenced, following Han Tao’s release of his aura. The drowsy Desolate Wolf Beast suddenly became untraceable again!

They exchanged glances and nodded towards each other.

Then turned around to sneak towards the position while lurking near enemies.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, the man behind the helmet was wearing a cold smile, nodding as if in agreement:

"I didn’t expect the Life Farm to have such a grand plan. If it becomes the only Tier Three Horse King, influencing millions of evolvers on the Wasteland, such power would likely be matched only by top-tier influences like the Holy See!"

"Seems like going to the Life Farm is very necessary."

"At that time, I will need the recommendation of Governor Han."

Han Tao showed a satisfied smile:

"Of course! Of course! Bringing such a promising member to the farm is an accomplishment for me too."

"Moreover, in the upcoming decapitation operation, if we manage to actually kill a Tier Two Desolate Wolf Beast, the evolutionary flesh with its rich Life Source Material inside will also be priceless!"

"Handing it over to the Life Farm could also be counted as merit, in exchange for a large amount of Tier Two Evolutionary Dried Meat and upgrade to advanced membership."

Lin Feng acknowledged with a nod:

"We didn’t expect the Life Farm to have such an extensive plan. If it can become the only Tier Three Horse King, impacting millions of evolvers on the Wasteland, such prowess could potentially rival top-tier forces like the Holy See!"

"It seems necessary to visit the Life Farm."

"By then, I will need you, Governor Han, to introduce me."

Han Tao nodded with a satisfied smile:

"Indeed! Bringing such a promising member to the farm is also a merit for me."

"And if we can really kill a Tier Two Desolate Wolf Beast in the upcoming beheading action, the evolutionary flesh inside it, rich in Life Source Material, will also be extremely valuable!"

"Delivering it to the Life Farm will be considered meritorious, exchanging for a large amount of Tier Two Evolutionary Dried Meat, and membership tiers."

Lin Feng nodded, then said:

"I didn’t expect the Life Farm to have such grand plans. If it truly becomes the singular Tier Three Horse King, influencing millions of Evolvers on the Wasteland, such power might rival the top-class forces like the Holy See!"

"Seems very necessary to pay a visit to the Life Farm."

"I’ll be counting on you, Governor Han, for an introduction."

With a satisfied smile, Han Tao said:

"Certainly! Certainly! Bringing such a promising member to the farm is also a merit for me."

"Moreover, in the upcoming decapitation operation, if we could really kill a Tier Two Desolate Wolf Beast, its body containing evolutionary flesh rich in Life Source Material would equally be priceless!"

"Giving it to the Life Farm can also be meritorious and in exchange for Tier Two Evolutionary Dried Meat and membership levels."

Lin Feng nodded, then added:

"I’ll rely on you two then."

With a confident nod from both of them, they turned around and moved away.

Behind them, they heard Xu Wanfeng approaching after dealing with nearby guards.

Han Tao closed his eyes again, taking a deep breath, and soon located a silent valley where the Desolate Wolf Beast lurked.

Han Tao said:

"Wait for Chairman Xu to proceed with the reconnaissance. I will then release the aura and draw it out into the open, after which you can come forward to support and prevent it from pursuing, forcing it to break the gridlock by taking some risks."

Both Xu Wanfeng and Lin Feng nodded, looking at each other.

They then turned and began their separate missions.

This was a gravel slope, with no rocks blocking the view.

That coordinate coincided with Lin Feng’s, allowing for effective long-range sniping from above!

As the operation started, Han Tao released his aura, and the Desolate Wolf Beast, previously snoozing, suddenly disappeared from sight!

Its eyes opened sharply, glaring at the awakened Han Tao.

This was its true nature revealed, knowing that the retrieval of Li Hao’s corpse and the introduction of such a powerful Rock Horse Warrior were both significant achievements.

Two major achievements were sufficient to allow Han Tao’s status in the Life Farm to soar.

Advancing to Mid-Tier Two Rock Horse Warrior to become an Advanced Member of the farm wasn’t out of reach either.

At the same time, connecting with Lin Feng...

As they say, good fortune for one man is good fortune for all!

Persistence, Lin Feng’s eventual promotion to Core Member, pushing Han Tao to higher ranks, being his right-hand man in the branches of major settlements, leading a life of power and prestige.

Unexpectedly, beneath the helmet’s mask was a man wearing a cold smile, nodding his head in agreement:

"I didn’t expect the Life Farm to have such a grand plan. If it could become the sole Tier Three Horse King, impacting millions of evolvers on the Wasteland, such an influence might rival a top-tier power like the Holy See!"

"Seems necessary to pay a visit to the Life Farm."

"By then, I’d rely on your introduction, Governor Han."

Han Tao gave a satisfied smile:

"Of course! Certain! Bringing such a promising member to the farm is a merit in itself for me."

"Furthermore, in the upcoming decapitation operation, if we really manage to slay a Tier Two Desolate Wolf Beast, its body, rich in life source material evolutionary flesh, will also be highly valuable!"

"Delivering it to the Life Farm will count as a merit and allow for the exchange for a large quantity of Tier Two Evolutionary Dried Meat as well."

Lin Feng nodded, then said:

"Hence, I would also like to rely on you, Governor Han, for some introductions when the time comes."

With a satisfied nod for their commitment to the operation, Xu Wanfeng soon joined them after taking down nearby sentries.

Han Tao closed his eyes again, sensing as Xu Wanfeng soon found a quiet valley at the foot of the right mountain, where the Desolate Wolf Beast was hidden.

He suggested:

"We should wait for Chairman Xu to probe it out, then I’ll release my aura to lure it out for an attack, and you can provide support from afar to restrain its pursuit, forcing it to take risks to break the deadlock."

Both Xu Wanfeng and Lin Feng nodded to each other.

They turned and went on with their respective missions.

Without rocks blocking the view on this gravel slope, they could coordinate well with Lin Feng uphill for long-range sniping!
