Wasteland: My Items Can Be Infinitely Upgraded

Chapter 181: Inferior Battle Vehicles and Heavy Truck Transporters Arrangements (Part 2)


"Normally operating in Oasis Fifth Village, there's no need for high power, just a top speed of ten kilometers per hour."

"So their components have all been dismantled and sent to Dawn Village, especially the high-level photovoltaic panels and brushless motors."

"Dawn Village is responsible for using these parts to repair and replace the Pilgrimage Convoy of the Guild, and they also conduct daily maintenance and repairs on the parts."

"And the Guild only needs to pay a maintenance fee to ensure the normal operation of the Pilgrimage Convoy."

"Vice President Xu said that the Pilgrimage Convoy maintains the trade routes, asking the leader to be more understanding as they are already negotiating with Dawn Village."

Lin Feng frowned even deeper:

"What did Dawn Village say? They won't give them directly?"

Ah Lian shook her head:

"Not exactly, after all, they are nominally Guild assets, but the current situation is turbulent..."

"They say it's not repaired yet, and although only Nongzhuang Village suffered heavy losses last time the Pilgrimage Convoy was attacked, the Guild's convoy was also affected, stray bullets hit some motors, and it will take some time to repair."

As she spoke, Ah Lian opened the car door of the tank, swivelling the machine gun between the back seats to the top of the car window:

"This machine gun and extra ammunition are a free gift from Vice President Xu as an apology."

Lin Feng sneered:

"Did they give a clear answer? Time waits for no one."

Ah Lian hesitated for a moment, looking at Chen Shanshan on the side.

The latter stepped out and responded with an open door:

"Currently, the motors of the four vehicles were all dismantled from other vehicles. Vice President Xu knows we are in urgent need and promised us the latest deadline of three days later."

Three days later?

It's already the eighth day now, and in three more days, it will be the eleventh day, with only four days left until the next intersection on Holy Spring Day.

By then, the Li Family will definitely take action.

If Dawn Village is breached and plundered, where will I find intact component equipment?

Without these functionalities, how will the convoy catch up with the Pilgrimage Convoy and successfully reach the Holy City in time?

In short, one slow step results in slow steps everywhere.

Lin Feng is not one to sit and wait for death, nor is it a time for delay right now.

If he continues to be pretentious, the enemy might take it as a sign of weakness.

Thinking of this, Lin Feng calmed down, looking up at the gazes watching from afar, then down at the people in front of him:

"Is Ding Yi still recruiting people?"

Ah Lian nodded.

"Ah Lian, you go there again and tell Vice President Xu to bring ten Level 10 Evolution Agents and five hundred kilograms of Level 9 Enhanced Meat as compensation for goods not matching the order."

Ten Level 10 Evolution Agents are equivalent to ten thousand points; given the current situation, Evolutionary Meat is hard to come by, so Lin Feng can only ask for Enhanced Meat as a compromise.

One kilogram is estimated to be trading at ten points now.

Five hundred kilograms is ten thousand points, which is not much and barely satisfies the daily consumption of subordinates at the Tier One Early Stage.

Lin Feng originally planned to exchange it with grenades, but it seems unnecessary now.

Ah Lian nodded; the leader's demand, converted, is just twenty thousand points. Although it looks like a lot, this transaction amount reaches a hundred twenty thousand points.

But the tank vehicle is okay, after all, it's only five thousand points each, not much.

However, the heavy truck transporter, known as the wasteland's hundred-ton king, is the core of the convoy. Each one costs fifty thousand points, now lacking the matching motors and photovoltaic panels, its maneuverability will surely decrease significantly...

Charging only twenty thousand points as compensation, the leader has been very generous.

After explaining this, Lin Feng first went to the heavy truck transporter at the back to check the situation.

This vehicle is a modified version of an old heavy truck.

Lin Feng saw it once as a child early in the morning, being unable to fit at a traffic light intersection, with a total length approaching thirty meters, with eight or more pairs of wheels in the front and back.

Now this modified version of the hundred-ton king is even more exaggerated, reaching thirty-two meters in length, with a height and width of five meters each. The front alone is as long as an ordinary electric car.

The tires are a meter high, with four at the front and six at the back, and even if three or four wheels blowout in succession, it doesn't affect its driving.

The reason for adding so many tires is to solve the weight-bearing problem.

The 27-meter-long compartment is four meters high and five meters wide, with a rated load of 540 tons and an actual load over 500 tons. As long as it can be loaded, it can load anything.

It's all about adding more tires to enhance power output.

With a diesel engine, sufficient power would allow it to pull seven or eight carriages in a row, running the hundred-ton king like a train.

Currently, without these resources, it's driven by multiple motors, but the motor's power is actually stronger than an internal combustion engine, as many mining trucks are driven by motors with fuel oil providing the energy.

Unfortunately, the resources aren't available now.

Unless battery replacement stations are set up on the migration route, even with large motors, without enough power input, the limitation is not with the motors but with energy collection and storage issues.

Currently, the two heavy truck transporters are facing these problems as well:

"Heavy Truck Transporter lv20, Orange Quality"

"Basic Attributes: Defense 150; Damage 100; Durability 8/10; Top Speed 20km; Can consume 10 points of life value to upgrade"

"Extra Attributes: Super Load; Long-distance Transport; Iron Head Impact"

"Super Load: Possesses an extreme thousand-ton load; due to performance degradation, currently only 500 tons rated load; at full load, speed decreases by 50%, ten kilometers per hour

Long-distance Transport: Equipped with a five-ton heavy high-density battery, providing continuous energy for twelve hours, supporting long-distance transport; battery aging severely, endurance time halved, low-quality photovoltaic generation also halved hourly, charging full takes extended from twelve hours to twenty hours, total performance left only 25%

Iron Head Impact: Enormous load causing huge impact damage, but due to the severe reduction in vehicle performance, damage fell from the original 200 points to 100 points"

"Note: Motor aging, with vehicle performance declining, the top speed fell from fifty kilometers to twenty kilometers"

"Evaluation: A poorly performing heavy-duty tank truck, due to the quality reduction in major components like photovoltaic panels, energy storage batteries, and drive motors, overall performance has dropped sharply. Replacement with matching equipment is required to achieve long-distance transport capacity; otherwise, it is only suitable for medium to short-range transport within a thousand kilometers."

Only 25% of the original performance remains, high-energy batteries that could originally last for twelve hours now have only half their battery capacity, and photovoltaic generation couldn't keep up, requiring over twenty hours to charge fully...

Lin Feng took a deep breath.

The power generation of the heavy truck transporter is crucial for operating the ammunition production machine; without it, the production equipment in his hands becomes merely ornamental.

There's no way to convert raw materials into high-value-added shells and harvest oasis resources massively.

After reading the detailed introduction of the heavy truck transporter, Lin Feng's face was grim.

He already had a general judgment for the objective of this trip to Dawn Village in his heart.

Then he turned to look at the few squad members present and continued:

"Dawn Village bullies too much, I plan to use the latest gains to reason with them a bit, see if their camp's defensive force can withstand artillery coverage."

Saying this, Lin Feng continued to arrange:

"Ah Lian, go to the Guild and explain my stance and demand to Xu Wanshuang, stay there after finishing, wait for me to arrive."

Ah Lian received the order, then donned battle armor, and drove a vehicle away into the distance.

Only Chen Shanshan remained looking at Lin Feng.

Obviously, she wanted to follow Lin Feng to Dawn Village for a good argument.

However, Lin Feng had other considerations and said:

"You stay here, the convoy can't be left without someone in charge, otherwise it's easy to fall prey to scheming."

"You've already made appearances with Ah Lian and the others; the enemy knows your strength, seeing you haven't left, naturally they'll be hesitant to act rashly."

"Come with me first."

Midway through explaining, impatient Lin Feng took Chen Shanshan back into the tank.

He took out some Tier Two Pure Source Material from the fridge, handing it to the freshly Level 19 Chen Shanshan, along with a Level 19 Evolution Meat:

"I'll be back soon, it won't be long."

"Prepare here, once I'm back, start the Tier Jump Evolution to become a Tier Two Powerhouse."

While saying this, Lin Feng took out two sets of power armor:

"Wear them as soon as I leave, with power armor's support, even if the enemy comes probing, it'll be easy to handle."

Chen Shanshan took a deep breath:

"You should wear it too."

Lin Feng nodded:

"Don't worry, I'm relying on the gains from Level 5 of the relic, and I've advanced to a Level 22 Evolver. Ordinary Tier One Early Stage enemies are no match; even if Patriarch Li, Li Hao himself, comes, wearing power armor I can still deal with him."

Feeling Lin Feng's aura, much stronger suddenly, Chen Shanshan temporarily set her heart at ease:

"Alright, quick go and come back; I'll handle the camp here."

After equipping Lin Feng with power armor, she watched him take some small artillery shells from the transporter and drove another off-road battle vehicle, speeding towards Dawn Village behind him.
