Apocalypse: My Items Can Upgrade Infinitely

Chapter 395: Chapter 205: Transaction, Ambition, Emerging Prowess

"Although supplies are tight on the front lines, the home front isn’t actually short on food. Especially the grasslands and pastures of Northwest China, which was Blue Star’s main producer of beef and mutton before all this."

"Even if we offered tens of thousands of tons of meat, we can’t trade it for Zerg Eggs. Doing so would not only devalue ourselves but also expose our own meat shortage as a weakness."

A faint smile touched Lin Feng’s lips.

"Of course. Providing meat is just the ticket to trade. In my view, the real thing we need to trade for is something far more important than any material goods."

Hearing this, the three women looked on with a mix of anticipation and confusion. They also wanted to know what, besides nuclear bombs, the rear safe zones had to offer.

Lin Feng turned to look out the window at the endlessly flowing Great River. Many fishermen were still out with their lamps, fishing through the night for food.

"I believe the more important thing is the hearts and minds of the people."

"There are still seven or eight hundred million survivors living in the various rear safe zones and base cities. If this force could be united, it could absolutely resist the offensive of a Tier Three Late-stage Mother Empress’s Swarm!"

"To make that happen one day, we need more survivors to join us. We need to let the world know that in the South, abandoned by the Federation, there is still a powerful force that continues to hold the line and resist."

"And this force is even capable of defeating a Zerg Race Mother Empress—a complete and utter annihilation!"

"Only by publicizing this can we expand the influence of our base city."

As he spoke, Lin Feng looked at Han Yuxin again.

"Besides the meat, have Hu Fei gather all the factions interested in trading, and arrange for newspaper reporters to come as well, to discuss a strategic partnership."

Chen Yanyan, who had been quiet throughout the discussion, spoke up as it suddenly dawned on her,

"So that’s why you had Li Ran and the others prepare for the grand military parade the day after tomorrow? You want to announce our great victory over the Zerg Race to the world?!"

Lin Feng smiled and nodded, but in reality, his true objective went far beyond that.

’This so-called "winning the people’s hearts" has a deeper purpose: to lay the groundwork for unifying all human factions once I’ve established a firm foothold in the near future.’

’As for the ultimate goal of saving the world, it is, of course, to more conveniently collect humanity’s diverse Genetic Library, which will allow me to smoothly advance to a Tier Four Cosmic Life.’

’Therefore, I must build a solid foundation in advance, both in terms of moral legitimacy and overwhelming power.’

Of the three women, Betty, who had the keenest political instincts, was the quickest to react. She realized that Lin Feng was playing a grand game of chess that encompassed all of human civilization.

As she looked at the man before her, her former arrogance vanished, replaced by a look of admiration and hope.

’After all, for someone to ascend to that position would be a first in the entire history of humanity on Blue Star—an unprecedented feat.’

’Lin Feng wants to become the Lord of Humanity, to unite all humankind!’

’And he truly does possess the power to accomplish this magnificent feat!’

After discussing the establishment of the temporary base, Lin Feng didn’t stay the night due to the urgency of the situation. Instead, he took Chen Yanyan back to the combat unit’s encampment at University City.

By this time, Li Ran had already followed Lin Feng’s instructions and issued the order for the parade. The basic companies of the War Corps had begun practicing marching drills on the parade ground.

The reason for Lin Feng’s return, aside from his inspection, was to process the materials collected from the decisive battle in Wu City—various biological materials.

He needed to synthesize the Lv10 Red Profound Armor required by the combat unit, as well as the Lv20 Profound Tiger Armor for the Tier Two Corps.

This was no easy task.

Fortunately, during his recent Tier Jumping Upgrade, Lin Feng had fused with and created the Particle Control Realm.

Although he couldn’t use it to alter the chemical and physical attributes of matter from a distance like he could in the Spirit World, directly modifying and upgrading things by touch was now exceptionally easy.

The most obvious improvement was that previously, he had to first create the rough shape of an item before he could scan and use Identification on it for further upgrades...

For example, when Lin Feng first made the Red Shield Armor, he had to painstakingly cut the Back Armor of a Red-Armored Beetle and use a drill to fashion a piece of Red Armor shaped like a tortoise shell. It was always a lot of trouble.

But now, with the help of his Particle Control Realm, a golden light flashed in Lin Feng’s eyes. As he touched a Spine Zerg Giant Mandible, the golden light seeped into it, and the Giant Mandible instantly changed shape, turning into a liquid-like state that could be molded at will. It then directly solidified into brand-new pieces of Battle Armor!

This not only greatly reduced wear and tear and improved production efficiency, but it also increased output significantly.

In the latter half of the night, everyone who had been training on the parade ground had dispersed to their rooms to rest. Only Lin Feng remained, sitting beside the Lv29 Dreadnought Battleship, sipping Organic Nutrient Liquid to replenish his spent Energy while he continued to modify and upgrade materials.

Unfortunately, he couldn’t directly synthesize a Tiger-toothed Chainsaw Sword from the Orange Giant Mandible of a Tier Two Tiger Spine Zerg. This was because the internal bearings and power motor couldn’t be synthesized from Biological Material.

Therefore, he could only hand over the remaining Orange Giant Mandibles to the Chainsaw Sword Factory in the South for processing.

After finishing all this, the distant horizon began to lighten. Lin Feng stretched, then walked over to a public square near the encampment.

The massive corpse of the Mother Empress lay there silently.

Lin Feng had originally planned to wait for Ling Yi to finish dealing with the Jiangbei Mother Empress’s subordinate Zerg Race and return. Then they could study it together. After all, with her around, any questions could be answered on the spot.

However, since he had nothing else to do at the moment, he figured he could first remove the Golden Quality nuchal bone from the back of the Mother Empress’s head and see if it could be integrated into his Flying Tiger Armor.

’It would be best if it could give the Flying Tiger Armor a qualitative leap in power!’

But as Lin Feng approached, he saw the guarding Warriors arguing and entangled with several people.

In the growing light of the sky, he could barely make out the person in the lead, who was wearing a white coat.

A familiar female voice reached his ears...

’It seems the biological research institute from across the river, Director Ling Shuyan, couldn’t wait to get a close-up look and study...’

’...the true master of the Swarm, leader of the Zerg Race, a Tier Three Life Form—the Mother Empress!’
