"You attacked the Li Family in the Pilgrimage Convoy and seized the Clan Leader-level Rock-Horned Horse's source material, which might be used to exchange for the full support of a gunpowder ability user."

"Moreover, if you give it to me in advance, I might achieve the strength to severely wound a Tier Three Mutant King as a Tier Two Evolver!"

"At that time, not only this Tier Three Mutant, even the lower-tier Tier Three Pollution Sources, I can lend a hand and help you resolve them."

"Wanting to move out so many machines and production lines from six floors down, is not something that can be done in one go; at that time, you'll need powerful firepower support even more..."

"Leader Bai, don't you agree?"

Bai Ye squinted at the man in front of her.

It didn't surprise her that the other party knew about the Salvation Army squad's attack on the Pilgrimage Convoy, and even suggested using Tier Two Rock-Horned Horse Life Source Material for a transaction...

That was also within her expectations.

But what Bai Ye didn't expect was the other party's ambition and courage, proposing a transaction of payment first and action later.

And he spoke so logically that she couldn't find a reason to refute him.

After all, before successfully transporting out the military materials needed by the Salvation Army, the squad indeed needed to rely on the powerful firepower he possessed.

It's just that by doing so, investing so much at once, whether the expected effect and return can be obtained is yet to be observed and discussed.

Although Bai Ye is the leader of this Salvation Army, she couldn't act independently on some big matters without the support of the majority.

Especially last time when they plundered the Pilgrimage Convoy at Oasis Town,

although it ended in a complete victory, the casualties were not small, with a Tier One late-stage evolver of the Li Family dead, and the Salvation Army having a squad member seriously injured.

After a moment of thought, Bai Ye quickly made a decision:

"You're right, just driving them away or injuring them is far from enough, but trading Tier Two Life Source Material is a significant matter, perhaps we can inspect the goods first..."

"To see if Mr. Lin's strength is worthy of our advance investment?"

Seeing his goal achieved, Lin Feng smiled confidently:

"No problem, I'll start the action after resting for eight hours, then my squad members and I will do our best to cooperate with everyone to complete the task."

Bai Ye nodded:

"Then I'll wait for Mr. Lin to recover well and come forward to prove your true strength to everyone."

After saying that, she turned and left.

The tall, dark-skinned woman holding an umbrella beside her continued to stare at Lin Feng's squad's Rock Horse Battle Car, scrutinizing it carefully.

Ma Li, being a mechanical engineer, was obviously more interested in this uniquely styled Horse Horn Battle Car than in guns and men.

Turning to shield the leader with the umbrella as they walked away, she couldn't help but glance back at the mighty and imposing Rock Horse Battle Car one last time.

After they left, the campground with four cars fell into silence.

Until a scent wafted through, making Lin Feng lick his lips and speak:

"Let's eat first, whatever it is, we'll talk at the table."

Liu Mingfei brought out a long strip dining table modified from the original bed board from the back compartment of the battle car, placing it under the tent, and fetched a few folding chairs.

On the other side, a large pot of freshly cooked yam and horse meat stew was placed on the dining table.

Ding Yi also stir-fried two small dishes and a cold salad of marinated horse meat as side dishes.

The meat was all Early Tier One Evolutionary Meat, totaling 20 pounds, enough for everyone to enjoy.

Besides Lin Feng, the other members of the team found it to provide a good supplement.

Lin Feng, being a Late Tier One Evolver, found eating Early Stage horse meat like consuming low-fat, low-energy diet meals; it could fill him up but not provide adequate energy absorption.

So at the dining table where everyone gathered, Lin Feng merely tried Ding Yi's cooking, sampled some curry-flavored yam, and started thinking about cooperation with the Salvation Army.

Zheng Yan Ying and Zhou Hong, who were invited, had different reactions. Zhou Hong was responsible for driving and recording the whole operation, essentially acting as the overseer for the Church squad.

In contrast, Zheng Yan Ying, in charge of specific operational decisions, evidently had some reservations about this cooperation with the Salvation Army.

"We can't guarantee they will fulfill their promises."

Zheng Yan Ying ate a piece of horse meat and continued:

"If the action fails in the end, won't we have wasted several days for nothing."

"We don't have much time left..."

Lin Feng nodded without rebutting, merely responding:

"But we don't have any other options now, do you want to challenge a Clan Leader-level Desolate Wolf at Fallen Wolf Valley? Compared to the cunning and cruel Desolate Wolves, I prefer facing those foolish Mutants within the ruins."

"Besides, according to the plan, I'll become a Tier Two Evolver first, and by then I'll have enough strength to ensure the Salvation Army can fulfill our agreement."

Zheng Yan Ying took a deep breath:

"But the condition is you have to help them explore and collect from the military factory. Even if you kill the Tier Three Mutant, they won't let you leave."

Lin Feng shrugged indifferently:

"No problem, you can take the Source Stone Crystals back to Oasis Town first, can't you? After all, the task now is just to bring back the Life Source Stone of the Desolate Wolf."

"What's wrong if my squad stays for a couple more days?"

Zheng Yan Ying frowned deeply, even though the task was like this, she knew the Church also needed Lin Feng's firearm superpower to provide fire support against the Li Family's offensive.

But Lin Feng never promised to join the Church in a direct confrontation with the Li Family...

Obviously, he had more ideas in mind.

Thinking it over, Zheng Yan Ying could only suggest:

"We don't need a deeper cooperation with the Salvation Army, too much interaction. The Church has already agreed to give Captain Lin a Tier Two Life Source Material after this mission, to facilitate evolution..."

"Moreover, Captain Lin has only just stepped into Late Tier One and still needs Level 18 and 19 evolution before qualifying for Tier Two advancement, so why rush it?"

Lin Feng smirked inwardly, he was well aware of the Church's tactics.

Rather than facing the all-or-nothing Li Family and serving under the Church just to taste the pie of Tier Two evolution...

It might be more practical to directly acquire it from the Salvation Army right now instead.

With that in mind, Lin Feng expressed that he would consider it carefully, then picked up the iron pot and, taking the remaining half of the sweet potato and horse meat stew, headed to the cave shelter in the distance.

After confirming that he was needed by the Salvation Army, he wanted to gain a deeper understanding of their strength,

and the methods for quickly eliminating Mutants next.
