Wasteland: My Items Can Be Infinitely Upgraded

Chapter 682 - 326: Spear’s Hindrance, Bai Ye Adds Fuel_2

The Temple Knight is a guardian of the Master of the Holy Spring, with strength far surpassing that of ordinary Temple Knights. Especially within the range covered by the Holy Hall, they can continuously receive the divine blessing from the Master of the Holy Spring, and their strength is not inferior to that of a Tier Three King.

In short, as long as they can hold off Wolf Ao, the other early Tier Two giant desolate wolves, and the thousands of evolved desolate wolves pose no threat in Lin Feng’s eyes.

However, Bai Ye’s thoughts are evidently deeper and more profound.

Even if they can use Lin Feng’s plan to help Oasis Town break through the encirclement and escape the threat imposed by the Desert Wolf Race...

And receive the promised reward from Oasis Church, but what happens afterward?

Lin Feng needs to lead a huge convoy to Holy City, and Bai Ye also needs to leave the edge of the Scorching Sun Forbidden Area quickly to restore his free man status in Holy City and start constructing a medium to large settlement as a foundation for the Royal City...

All these tasks mean that Lin Feng and Bai Ye’s convoys cannot continue to move slowly with Oasis Town.

After the Holy City Diocese accepts Oasis Town, they cannot maintain a friendly attitude towards the two of them as Lord Bishop does now.

Although they successfully helped Oasis Town escape the fate of being pillaged by the Desert Wolf Race, some part of Oasis Town’s personnel and industries were indeed divided by Lin Feng and Bai Ye.

And this was originally part of the Bishopric’s interest pie.

The successors of Oasis Church will only regard the two as thorns in their side, trying every means to reclaim the survivors of Oasis Town under their command through coercion and inducement.

So after resolving the town-breaking beast calamity crisis, both Lin Feng and Bai Ye need to quickly distance themselves from Oasis Town and set off on the road to Holy City...

By then, Wolf Ao, who has been played, will certainly want to quickly make up for the tribe’s losses in the absence of any further attacks on Oasis Town.

Then the convoy led by Lin Feng and Bai Ye will surely become the hunting target for Wolf Ao.

Especially after their convoys underwent several-fold expansion, the level of organization has significantly declined, such that even small groups of evolved desolate wolves can easily cause disturbances.

Letting the entire convoy fall into chaos, breaking without an attack.

Thus, Lin Feng’s countermeasure plan seems like he is drinking poison to quench thirst, solving only the immediate crisis while sowing greater disasters for everyone’s subsequent retreat.

Upon thinking of this, Bai Ye immediately raised this issue.

She believes Lin Feng must have thought of this step.

The latter glanced back at Bai Ye before falling silent.

Of course, Lin Feng knows the consequences of doing so. Originally, he planned to take the opportunity to directly attempt to kill Wolf Ao, but after understanding the opponent’s strength and combat power, the negative effects brought by the Armor-Piercing Wolf Spear alone are clearly not enough to make the Tier Two Peak Wolf Ao fall on the spot.

Unless Lin Feng can continuously bombard the Thermite Annihilation Cannon, turning the opponent’s Tier Two body, along with the Tier Three Cells, to ash and cinder.

However, without Lord Bishop’s life-sacrificing containment, even with Bai Ye’s spatial power enhancement, locking onto Tier Two Peak Wolf Ao is difficult.

Without an excellent opportunity to directly lock on, relying on the residual blast of the Annihilation Cannon can only cause tens to small hundreds of damage to Wolf Ao at best.

So Lin Feng can only take this desperate measure, solve the immediate problem first, and save Oasis Town.

As for the safety issues Bai Ye is concerned about on the way...

Lin Feng’s plan is to use his absolute firepower to deter the Desert Wolf Race and Wolf Ao on the plains, forcing them to give up attacking his convoy.

And instead shift their target to the Salvation Army.

As the saying goes, better a friend suffers than oneself, but Lin Feng naturally would not say such a thing, opting for silence instead.

Yet Bai Ye, as a Tier Two Peak powerhouse who has survived thousands of years relying on spatial superpowers while remaining ever youthful, likely has more experienced means and preparations than Lin Feng.

She immediately takes out a sealed vacuum flask from her waist.

Upon opening the flask, it instantly releases a cloud of liquefied white fog, and the surrounding temperature drops drastically.

From around fifty or sixty degrees under the Scorching Sun, it plunges abruptly to about twenty degrees.

Even in power armor, Lin Feng can sense the extraordinary nature of the flask in Bai Ye’s hand.

Inside it isn’t a super bomb filled with liquid hydrogen but a simple liquid oxygen cooling device.

The temperature can be instantly lowered to a terrifying minus one hundred eighty degrees, instantly freezing any living organism.

Chromosome DNA strands inside the cell nucleus can be well preserved; the genetic information inside cell structures can restore vitality even after thawing.

Based on this feature, the ultra-low-temperature environment of liquid oxygen is the best means to preserve certain special substances.

For instance, Tier Three Energy with great pollution and diffusion, or perhaps extremely dreadful mutant radiation.

This includes some polluted Tier Three Blood and Flesh, such as that sealed at the bottom of the Taishan Ruins.

The frozen meat Bai Ye pours out of the flask at this moment, covered with pus and tumors, appears terrifying and disgusting even under a layer of frost.

A chill washes over Lin Feng’s heart.

Simultaneously recalling that this piece is what they retrieved after killing that Tier Three Mutant in the underground sanctuary of the Taishan Ruins with Bai Ye’s assistance back then...

Bai Ye dared to sift through the mutant’s remains, eventually retrieving a tissue filled with Tier Three mutant cells, which she transported into her flask under spatial power isolation.

Thinking back now, the small flask she used then is the very one she holds now.

As the small chunk of floating meat emits a lot of steam water vapor, it defrosts rapidly from minus one hundred eighty degrees to above zero...

The meat gradually regains vitality, awakening from its cryogenic slumber back to a normal state.

However, before it can emit any threatening mutant radiation, the scorching sunlight from behind the Scorching Sun Forbidden Area directly grills it.

The greatest flaw of mutant cells is that they have too many gene components and fragments mixed together, including genes from different species and stages all combined.

Therefore, the strength of mutants lies in their infinite fusion capability, also exhibiting diverse abilities.

But the sole flaw is that such fusion at the microscopic base pair level is extremely fragile and can shatter immediately under a slightly stronger particle beam, manifesting as structural collapse and decay at the macroscopic level.

The curse energy from the scorching sun behind surpasses ultraviolet in intensity, inherently destructive, distorting the chemical energy conversion process in living organisms, leading to phosphorus accumulation in ATP and eventual spontaneous combustion, releasing more Scorching Sun Curse.

Thus, mutant tissues fear direct exposure to Scorching Sun Energy; when struck by sunlight, it triggers a chain reaction akin to nuclear fission, rapidly spreading cell tissue decay, eventually vanishing into smoke and carbonized ash.

At this moment, Bai Ye takes out this small piece of mutant flesh, evidently planning to give Wolf Ao a more severe dose, naturally ensuring mutant tissues do not easily fall to the Scorching Sun’s rays.

Hence, in the next instant, she uses the power of space within herself to enfold the floating mutant tissue with several layers of spatial protection, refracting the surrounding light away.

She then manipulates this small piece of mutant flesh to drill into the wolf spearhead, wrapped in oilcloth in her hand, evenly smearing it around the blade’s edge.

Upon contact with mutant tissue, the mutant flesh rapidly integrates and assimilates with the Tier Three Wolf King cells.

Or mutually contaminates, forming a new mutant.

With the nourishment from the Wolf King Cells, this portion of mutant tissue becomes more tenacious, greatly increasing its resistance to the Scorching Sun Curse.

Having accomplished all this, Bai Ye slightly raises the corner of her mouth, quite satisfied with her creation:

"Alright, in this way, once it pierces into Wolf Ao’s flesh, the mutant contamination will cause it to significantly weaken, requiring patience for weeks to one or two months for complete eradication of the mutant cell contamination."

"Moreover, to prevent further infection, it will have to remain at the edge of the Scorching Sun Forbidden Area, relying on the sun’s rays to delay the spread of contamination."

Lin Feng nods, but instinctively creates more distance between himself and Bai Ye.

He had considered doing this but ultimately dismissed the idea due to the terrifying contamination of mutant tissues and their storage difficulties.

He did not wish to inadvertently trigger a large-scale disaster crisis, especially at such sensitive times.

If the Holy See caught wind of this, clarifying would not be easy.

After all, Bai Ye just used it as a suppression means...

Whereas Lin Feng had an agreement with Zong Shiyue to actually carry out poisoning in the wasteland wasteland.
