Wasteland: My Items Can Be Infinitely Upgraded

Chapter 82: Early Migration and the Clan Leader Level Rock-Horned Horse


On the way to the coastal cliffs, Lin Feng asked about Liu Qian:

"The drastic changes in body temperature, what do you think Liu Qian's superpower might be?"

Chen Shanshan's expression was somewhat unnatural:

"In the end, Liu Qian woke up suddenly, without any strange behavior. But when she took the water bottle and was about to drink, the water in the bottle boiled directly, and the entire plastic bottle shrank from the heat..."

"And in those few seconds, the heat she released was enough to cook dozens of pounds of meat."

Lin Feng squinted his eyes, recalling what Liu Mingfei mentioned during Liu Qian's awakening:

"You mean, she's like a solar cooker, able to concentrate all her energy at one point."

Chen Shanshan took a deep breath and nodded:

"It might also be related to her near-death experience, but right now, as a Tier One Evolver, her superpower shouldn't be that strong, at most creating some low-temperature light sources..."

"Or lighting a fire with her fingers."

"Like I did at that time, the later effects of the superpower weren't as magical as you described, at most erasing someone else's vision, how could it deprive all senses."

Chen Shanshan emphasized and analyzed:

"According to the genealogy of superpowers, this ability should belong to the advanced category of the Physique System, cellular energy control. It can release different types of energy through contact."

"Although this ability isn't very useful now, its growth potential is high. Once developed, it might release high temperatures comparable to the Sun in the future!"

Lin Feng thought of science fiction movies he had seen before, but even sci-fi needs some practicality, Chen Shanshan lacked common sense:

"Sun temperature? That's thousands, ten thousand degrees, whose body can withstand that?"

"Even if she becomes a human torch, burning all over, wouldn't she get burned?"

Chen Shanshan realized she was exaggerating a bit and added:

"Maybe it's glowing all over? Or injecting energy into an object, turning it into an energy bomb. Anyway, superpower development depends entirely on one's imagination and exploration."

"However, Liu Qian did have burn marks on her hand when she was holding the water bottle, she probably needs some practice to master it."

Lin Feng nodded, looked at the ever-growing scorching sun behind him, planning to ask Liu Qian when he had the chance what her awakening trial would be.

Could it be challenging to destroy the Sun or avoiding the scorching sunlight, giving birth to such an advanced but weak superpower?

The two chatted idly, conserving energy as they progressed at a steady pace.

Two hours later, after passing through ten kilometers of city ruins, they arrived smoothly at the coastal cliffs, the previous resting place where everyone had followed Old Duncan to capture a Male Rock-Horned Horse.

A journey that had once nearly taken Lin Feng's life when he was only Level 7 Enhanced, now felt like an after-dinner walk, a pre-exercise warm-up, as a Mid-Tier One, Level 14 Evolver.

Indeed, only Evolvers could fully adapt to the harsh Wasteland environment, Enhanced People too far from Oasis Town, venturing into the Wilderness alone, would likely not survive.

Lin Feng climbed onto the ruins of a collapsed coastal lighthouse, took out his binoculars, and observed the Rift Valley ahead.

Over thousands of years, the former seabed had cracked into pieces, countless grooves of various sizes at the bottom had swallowed into the vast Rock-Horned Horse Herds.

The mist blowing from behind condensed deep in the Rift Valley, eventually forming a periodic Dead Water Pool.

Now, as the Scorching Sun Forbidden Area approached, temperatures rose, causing the greenery sprinkled within the Rift Valley to gradually wither, and the underground pools to increasingly dry up.

This feast was gradually reaching its end.

"Fewer and fewer Rock-Horned Horse Herds are arriving, while more and more are leaving, we need to hurry."

Chen Shanshan noticed that the figures of the herds at the entrance and exit of the Bay Rift Valley, more than ten kilometers away, were few and far between.

The numbers were far fewer than when they had first arrived.

The last wave of Rock-Horned Horse Herds had already fully arrived.

Lin Feng nodded, continuing to observe and search for targets, and said:

"Ding Yi made a preliminary count, there are three remaining Tier One Female Rock-Horned Horses and fourteen Late Stage Rock-Horned Horses, we can collect a total of two tons of dried meat, all Enhanced Meat."

"Plus the eight cubs, the remaining load we can carry does not exceed 2.5 tons."

"So at most we can kill two to three more Tier One Rock-Horned Horses to fill the carriage. If there's a chance afterwards, we can capture a few live horses and test the toxin effects."

Chen Shanshan glanced at the time on her watch:

"We've covered more than a hundred kilometers this trip, the Scorching Sun Forbidden Area should be near on the fifth day, it's already the third day's day and night, nearly two days and forty-eight hours left, we should have time to capture live horses."

Lin Feng put down his binoculars and nodded.

With their team now strengthened, the lineup was luxurious, they could easily take down a small Rock-Horned Horse Herd.

Gaining three Tier One Rock-Horned Horses was not a problem.

The key was to maximize profits during this last hunting opportunity.

Once the Scorching Sun Forbidden Area engulfed, temperatures would spike, and the Rock-Horned Horse Herd gatherings in the Rift Valley would end, dispersing the Beast Tide across the boundless Wilderness.

In the future, encountering Rock-Horned Horse Herds would depend on catching them by chance and luck.

Right now, female horses aren't worth much, and their evolutionary level is low.

As for mid-stage male Rock-Horned Horses, capturing them alive can sell for at least three thousand points each, more valuable than the two tons of dried meat on the current Rock Horse Battle Car.

But Lin Feng knew that killing them is easy, capturing them alive is difficult.

So the compromise is actually to capture early-tier male Rock-Horned Horses, which are the "bachelors" at the foot of the cliff slope below.

They are easier for Lin Feng's team to control, and the value of a live horse far exceeds that of a female Rock-Horned Horse, comparable to the corpse of a mid-stage leader.

Each one can be worth at least two thousand points.

Moreover, their size is smaller, making them easier to control and transport.

Just as Lin Feng made the decision to carry out the capture plan for early-tier male Rock-Horned Horses…

A powerful and vigorous roar suddenly sounded from the rift valley in the distance!

Immediately after, several other deep howls echoed through the rift valley!

The sound rose and fell, continuing without pause!

These roars seemed like some kind of signal, quickly spreading throughout the entire bay, even Lin Feng and Chen Shanshan, tens of kilometers away, could hear it clearly.

Chen Shanshan's face changed slightly, realizing something:

"These are the roars of leader-level Rock-Horned Horses! We heard them when we first arrived here."

Lin Feng nodded gravely.

Leader-level Rock-Horned Horses specifically refer to late-tier male Rock-Horned Horses, with their clans numbering in the hundreds, a massive force.

Their strength is also among the best in the Rock-Horned Horse herd.

They measure seven to ten meters long, about four meters high, truly land-dwelling giant beasts, even larger than the extinct mammoths of the Old Earth.

With the five-meter-wide, stout, and sharp horns on their heads, when they run, they charge recklessly, disregarding anything in their path.

Comparable to a heavy truck.

The power of a Level 14 Machine Cannon Gun is almost halved in front of them, unable to shatter the thick rock armor.

And in the face of such giant beasts, most Tier One Evolvers would simply be intimidated, fearing to avoid them if possible.

But at this moment, Lin Feng was more concerned about the series of anomalies in front of him, following the Rock-Horned Horse herd after the roar.

Accompanied by several leader-level Rock-Horned Horses, roaring from various positions in the rift valley…

The entire bay soon experienced slight tremors.

Many Rock-Horned Horses could be seen gradually becoming agitated, the roar like some sort of signal, summoning the other nearby Rock-Horned Horse herds.

Subsequently, these herds got up and began moving toward the back of the bay rift valley.

Even the bachelor early-tier male Rock-Horned Horses at the bottom of the slope under Lin Feng and Chen Shanshan's feet, also left the fertile slope grass one by one, following the back of the beast herd, heading deeper into the rift valley…

Lin Feng and Chen Shanshan exchanged glances, realizing immediately the reason for the collective roar of the leader-level Rock-Horned Horses.

They intended to leave this gathering place, leading their clans to embark once more on a migration journey, heading early to the next water source.

"Isn't it a bit too early, there's still more than two days until the Scorching Sun Forbidden Area arrives..."

Chen Shanshan muttered to herself, a bit incredulous.

Beside her, Lin Feng picked up the binoculars again, seeing several leader-level large Rock-Horned Horses in the distance behind the bay rift valley, leading their clans away.

And after the main forces departed, many small horse groups also began their journey early, following the migration team.

The bachelor male Rock-Horned Horse group at everyone's feet also closely followed beside the beast herd, withdrawing from the bay rift valley.

All the Rock-Horned Horses were leaving!

Lin Feng furrowed his brow tightly, looking at the rolling dust raised in the distance, reminiscent of the dispatching scene of Oasis Town, directly turned around without looking back, saying urgently:

"Let's go, notify them. The situation has changed, and we need to take action in advance!"

"Now go directly to the right side behind the rift valley, ambush the migrating horse herds at the river path."

With that said, he immediately took Chen Shanshan away from the shore.

Shortly after the two left, a giant beast of enormous size emerged from the migrating Rock-Horned Horse herd.

It was six to seven meters high, fifteen meters long, resembling a moving small building, several times larger than those leader-level Rock-Horned Horses, quite conspicuous within the horse herd.

This was the total leader commanding this Rock-Horned Horse herd, its strength far above Tier One…

The legendary Clan Leader Level Rock-Horned Horse.

The first powerful and vigorous roar just now came from its command!

Commencing a new journey of beast herd migration!
