In fact, Lin Feng was planning to purchase battle armor in bulk.

The Level 9 combat suit could no longer be upgraded because the base was too poor, limited to white quality equipment, unless higher-grade materials were integrated or branding was applied to lift the restrictions.

Higher-grade materials are clearly more suited to being directly added to advanced equipment. Integrating into ordinary combat suits offers limited improvement and is too wasteful.

Therefore, Lin Feng's plan was to first buy six sets of light steel armor, with a red quality foundation, then upgrade by integrating, adding materials like the horse horn and horse bone of the Rock-Horned Horse, to craft armor with better defense and lighter weight.

This way, a lot of points could be saved while acquiring better armor, achieving two goals at once.

Ordinary light steel armor at the basic level of Level 10 costs only three hundred and fifty points per set, whereas advanced Levels 12 and 13 armor start at one thousand points.

As for the more advanced Level 14 titanium steel armor, listening to the store manager's introduction, it can withstand three to four tons of impact force but costs two thousand five hundred points.

Seven sets would cost seventeen thousand, making Lin Feng suddenly feel that the forty-seven thousand points in hand were not so plentiful.

After all, there were more advanced rewards from task points that hadn't been examined.

They're estimated to be several thousand each.

So, they couldn't be spent carelessly.

Thus, Lin Feng finally ordered only six sets of light battle armor under the store manager's surprised gaze, which only cost two thousand one hundred points.

And four rifles, each costing two hundred and fifty points, totaling one thousand, besides those for Liu Mingfei and the others, Lin Feng prepared a backup weapon for himself to test different enhancement directions of the Power of Branding.

Lastly, there were the pistols for close combat self-defense, costing only seventy points each; Lin Feng directly bought seven, one for each team member, totaling five hundred.

So all together it summed up to three thousand six hundred points, Lin Feng was initially lazy to bargain anymore, just a few more free bullets would be fine.

But under Chen Shanshan's insistence, they still spent some effort bargaining.

She experienced from extravagance to thrift and now, having become rich again from thrift to extravagance, very much treasured every point.

Lin Feng nodded and accompanied Chen Shanshan in bargaining.

Finally, six sets of light battle armor were settled at the last discounted price, three hundred points each, costing only one thousand eight hundred, saving three hundred points.

Simultaneously, for the four rifles, two magazines and four hundred rifle bullets were gifted, costing roughly a hundred points.

For the pistols, it's the same, two magazines plus three hundred bullets.

After bargaining, they only paid three thousand three hundred points, although the store manager still made a profit, it wasn't as lucrative as before.

Resulting in the store manager's face turning black as Lin Feng and his companion walked away with a bag full of weapons, only able to head to the warehouse, rummaging through light battle armor, exhausting himself earning a run-around fee.

After ordering the unified weapons and equipment for the team, Lin Feng then went downstairs and bought a small low-temperature cooler in the Dawn Village store, three hundred liters.

It cost another one hundred points.

At this moment, Manager Qian hurried over to inform them that their Special-level Hunter license application had been approved.

Following the manager to the VIP room backstage, the two began handling the relevant procedures.

While filling in personal profile information, Lin Feng wrote firearms superpower in the superpower column.

After that, they received a palm-sized special badge, akin to a police badge.

Compared to the previous booklet-style credentials, the silver license in front had a higher prestige.

Manager Qian, who was responsible for guidance and service, introduced enviously:

"You two can hang the license on the outer clothes or battle armor, it's a symbol of identity. Especially during operations in the Wilderness, hunters can look out for each other, and other forces will be wary upon seeing this."

Lin Feng nodded, it seemed the identity of a Special-level Hunter was somewhat useful.

At least it represented the face of the Hunting Wilderness Guild.

"What about the list of advanced weaponry and equipment? It should be more than what's written on the list, right?"

Manager Qian nodded, looking increasingly respectful towards the two newly emerged Special-level Hunters:

"Please wait a moment; the warehouse's stockpile materials haven't been sorted for many years and need to be reorganized and evaluated, here's the statistical list from the previous Wasteland Year, you can take a look first."

"The latest list might be available by tomorrow, lately the guild lacks manpower, and the warehouse is overwhelmed."

"The two of you can wait in the VIP room for a while; we also provide free meals, accommodation services, and other relaxing entertainment activities."

Thinking of the chubby warehouse manager from when settling the evolutionary meat earlier, Lin Feng shook his head:

"No hurry, take your time."

Then he glanced at the list in his hand, finding a normal exoskeleton power armor priced at a steep ten thousand points, while other equipment or weapons were around four to five thousand.

Among them, the cheapest was a multifunction titanium shield worth over two thousand points and a disposable single-operator rocket launcher...

Lin Feng took a deep breath, grabbed the cup, gulped down the juice, then coughed lightly, stood up:

"I'll take this list with me first, the contents need to be discussed with my team, and I'll come by again tomorrow."

Manager Qian nodded quickly:

"No problem, please have a safe journey…"

He then helped carry the firearms and equipment, sending the two out through the guild's side door, all the way to the Rock Horse Battle Car.

Seeing the uniquely styled battle car in front, Manager Qian couldn't help but sigh in admiration.

Lin Feng sat in the passenger seat, waved his hand preparing to leave.

Manager Qian noticed the driver smoking outside the car and immediately asked Lin Feng's team to wait a moment, then quickly ran back into the guild.

Soon, he ran back, panting, took out two small iron boxes from his pocket.

He stepped forward and handed it to Lin Feng.

Taking the metal box and opening it, he found one box containing five standard cigarettes as thick as fingers, while the other was filled with snow-white sugar.

Manager Qian took a deep breath and began to introduce:

"Sir, this is not the inferior tobacco from Farm Village, but a high-grade product exclusively supplied to the guild by a family specializing in tobacco leaves in Holy City. Rich and strong, especially suitable for evolvers to enjoy. A single cigar can last for an hour, perfect for long journeys in the wilderness to lift one's spirit."

"This box holds concentrated mint candies; eating one under the hot sun can refresh and invigorate, providing instant coolness."

"These are items not listed on the inventory."

Lin Feng nodded:

"Thanks for the effort."

He handed the candy to the three women in the back row, then had Chen Shanshan bring over five kilograms of Level 10 evolutionary meat, handing it through the car window to the man outside:

"Manager Qian, you've just been promoted to evolver, right? This Tier One evolutionary meat will help solidify your evolutionary power, take it."

If Level 9 Enhanced Meat is the hard currency among the permanent residents of the Five Major Villages, then evolutionary meat is the soft gold among evolvers.

At this moment, Manager Qian accepted the jerky with ecstatic surprise, thanking him repeatedly.

Watching the battle car leave, only after Lin Feng and his group disappeared into the distance did he return to the guild, clutching the evolutionary meat.

Even though he had offered two boxes of luxury goods worth several hundred points, the procurement price of the evolutionary meat in his hand was only twenty points per kilogram.

But that's limited, and for internal guild members with low ranks like him, who are not combat-type evolvers, the daily supply of evolutionary meat is less than half a pound.

As for the price outside, it had long been speculated to be forty to fifty points per kilogram, even reaching the point of scarcity, with no market availability.

And after seeing Lin Feng and another become Special-level Hunters, Manager Qian keenly seized the opportunity, successfully exchanging luxury goods that were of no help for the evolutionary meat he truly needed.

On the other side, on the road back to Farm Village.

Lin Feng opened the metal box, took one of the cigars, and smelled it above his lips, finding it had a rich tobacco aroma, mixed with mint leaves, exuding a faint refreshing scent.

Next to him, driving, Liu Mingfei couldn't help but swallow his saliva, his attention shifting completely from the bag of weapons and equipment to Lin Feng's high-grade cigar.

After confirming the quality was fine, Lin Feng placed the cigarette box into the drawer in front of the co-pilot seat, then advised:

"Don't smoke now. Smoke one to lift your spirit on the long journey when we're on a mission later, or if you really want to smoke, use your points to buy it at the Farm Village shop."

Liu Mingfei nodded, suppressing his urge inside, comforting himself that since no other team members smoked, this box of high-grade cigars would eventually be his.

At this time, Ah Lian, sitting in the back row, leaned forward, holding a mint candy, and handed it to Lin Feng.

She simultaneously spoke:

"I smoke too. How many points per stick? I'm willing to deduct it from my points!"

Lin Feng furrowed his brows slightly, taking the mint candy:

"Though I'm not sure of the price, since it's internally supplied, let's say a hundred points per stick."

"If you want to smoke, you can directly deduct from your personal points allocation later."

Ah Lian nodded, then smiled at Liu Mingfei, whose face had changed next to her:

"Don't worry, I'll mostly just try one stick to taste."

The concentrated mint candy released in Lin Feng's mouth like a midnight storm, a wave of coolness rushing directly to his brain.

The experiences of evolvers can be so intense; it might be so cool for ordinary humans or enhanced people that they might lose their taste sensation.

"It's not a battle state, less is better from now on, don't build a resistance."

Lin Feng reminded.

A box of concentrated mint candies contained thirty or forty pieces, so there was no worry about eating them all at once.

Chen Shanshan nodded, carefully putting away the candy box.

Returning to the right-side camp on the outskirts of Holy Spring Village, Lin Feng informed everyone of the subsequent plan arrangement.

The main focus was on exchanging equipment for task rewards.

After distributing a mint candy to Ding Yi and Liu Qian, the group of seven gathered in the back row of the battle car, listening to Lin Feng speak:

"This time we sold almost all the enhanced meat, two hundred kilograms of Level 13 horse meat, and one hundred kilograms of Level 14 evolutionary meat, harvesting a total of forty-seven thousand points."

"Of course, we haven't sold twenty-four pieces of advanced photovoltaic rock armor yet, but I suggest using them to upgrade subsequent battle cars; selling them would be a bit of a loss."

"This trip also had us purchase armor and firearms for everyone, spending thirty-three hundred points, and one refrigerated box for storing Tier One horse meat, costing a hundred points..."

"Currently, we have forty-three thousand six points left."

"But these are all standard weapons equipped by the team, and even through optimization, their power can only suppress early Tier One evolvers, they can't be used as big killers."

"Therefore, we need to spend a considerable amount of points later to exchange for advanced weapons, which the guild does not sell externally!"

As he spoke, Lin Feng placed the inventory list on the seat pad, passing it among everyone.

The others glanced at the price column on the list briefly, originally still immersed in the joy of becoming rich quickly...

At this moment, they all collectively gasped!

Ridiculously and astonishingly expensive!

Meanwhile, Lin Feng's attention was on Liu Qian nearby, loading bullets into a pistol magazine.

Holding the bullets in her hand, she seemed to be contemplating something.
