Lin Feng looked at Chen Shanshan, who had a solemn expression, and continued to reassure her:
"Don’t worry, even if Zheng Yan Ying is right and we need to stay vigilant, that’s a matter for later. The battle armor’s full charge lasts only fifty minutes, so it should be saved for the most critical mont."
"Before that, just use Shen Yue’s titanium alloy shield."
Chen Shanshan responded with a hum, nodding her head.
During alti, through so conversation and clarification, Lin Feng got a rough understanding of Bai Ye’s spatial superpower and devised a corresponding battle plan.
These preparations may seem overcautious, but when the real battle begins, they often beco the key to victory.
After all, using your brain is always more useful than brute force.
Especially when the enemy is stronger.
After eating, Lin Feng took Chen Shanshan and stepped out of the Rock Horse battle car, ready to report to the Salvation Army.
There’s not much danger on the first floor, bringing Chen Shanshan along was mainly to familiarize with the situation and practice cooperation.
At this mont, Zheng Yan Ying ca over from the opposite vehicle, followed by Shen Yue who had just woken up.
"It’s better for the group to act in threes. Bring Shen Yue along, you were originally in a group of three, and you happen to need a defender. Having Chen Shanshan take on two roles alone is prone to mistakes."
"Shen Yue has the Power of the Holy Spring protecting her, so there’s no need to wear heavy battle armor, allowing her to react faster."
Zheng Yan Ying spoke, pulling Shen Yue over.
This person still had a nutritional supplent in her mouth, squinting her sleepy eyes, sniffed with her nose, and suddenly widened her eyes:
"You ate Mid-Stage Evolutionary at? Stewed horse at?"
Lin Feng rolled his eyes at her, not bothering much, and directly replied to Zheng Yan Ying:
"Is her condition okay? Doesn’t she need to eat a lot to maintain the frenzy state."
Shen Yue, with her specially evolved consumption system, was known as the invincible big eater. All the food she consud would convert into energy, stored within her body, fully enhancing her physique when used.
It’s known as a long-lasting frenzy superpower.
However, the cost is that after overexertion, she would be weakened for a long period.
For instance, after ten hours in the relic, holding nearly a ton-heavy titanium alloy shield, most of Shen Yue’s internal energy had been consud.
She ca back and slept like a log imdiately.
Zheng Yan Ying patted Shen Yue’s shoulder:
"Don’t worry, she’s mostly recovered. We’ve prepared a concentrated version of high-level nutritional supplent; one dose is comparable to ten kilograms of Late-Term Evolutionary at, equivalent to eating a hundred kilograms of Mid-Term Enhanced at."
"It can maintain the enhanced physique effect for several hours."
Shen Yue nodded and received the shield from Zheng Yan Ying, easily lifting it.
Lin Feng noticed her stamina was fine, but the bags under her eyes were a bit swollen, likely her spirit hadn’t fully recovered. The relic’s experience had taken a great toll on her spirit.
"Alright then, let’s go together."
Although not too keen to have Shen Yue join, Lin Feng was clearer that this was the Church’s maneuver.
Stating that Shen Yue was sent along to ensure the squad’s safety, the real aim was to monitor Lin Feng and associate with the Salvation Army.
Especially the task’s focal point this ti, the acquisition of the Desert Wolf Source Crystal, Lin Feng still held two, a gift from the Salvation Army leader Bai Ye.
And he hadn’t ntioned this, nor had he handed over the source crystal later.
The aning represented in this was very clear to Zheng Yan Ying,
This was the guarantee Lin Feng needed.
A guarantee that the companions on the ground would be safe, that if anything happened to them in the relics, soone would co to the rescue, and also a guarantee that upon completing the mission and returning to Oasis Town, they could smoothly obtain the Tier Two Life Source Material.
So before everything settled down, Lin Feng would keep a tight hold on the Desert Wolf Source Crystal.
The Salvation Army leader’s move also easily sowed discord among the original exploration team, planting seeds of doubt and suspicion between Lin Feng and the Church.
Zheng Yan Ying understood this well but was helpless.
The Salvation Army’s intervention rendered the Church Squad, who once possessed a large amount of Holy Water and Power of the Holy Spring, no longer unique in resisting the relic pollution.
Thus losing the leverage to constrain Lin Feng and others.
They could completely turn to the Salvation Army to complete this Desert Wolf Source task.
So Zheng Yan Ying didn’t say she’d join Lin Feng but instead sent the non-threatening Shen Yue to test the waters.
Fortunately, Lin Feng’s agreeable consent allowed this undercurrent to settle perfectly on the surface.
Otherwise, the two squads would have certainly co to a skirmish.
In the end, as long as Lin Feng completed the task, the only one to bla would be Zheng Yan Ying, and Lin Feng’s team would gain more initiative and voice.
These encounters were all hidden in the questions and answers between the two.
Chen Shanshan remained unaware, and Shen Yue, standing beside the two, sensed sothing while looking at Zheng Yan Ying, yet could only comply with the arrangent.
Fully ard, the trio left the camp and headed towards the cave not far away.
It was exactly 7:30 AM at this ti.
Lin Feng, holding the helt, looked back at Shen Yue:
"There should be nothing much on the third floor. While holding the shield, you need to observe any lurking mutants nearby and provide with the location and distance of the target."
Shen Yue nodded:
"Understood, what about the Desert Wolf Source Crystal?"
Lin Feng shrugged:
"We’ll talk about that when we return to the fourth floor. I estimate there will be a fierce battle awaiting us there. The third floor shouldn’t pose much of a problem. anwhile, try to rest as much as you can and restore your ntal state."
Soon, the three entered the cave, seeing several fully ard mbers of the Salvation Army also wearing sealed battle armor, carrying fuel tanks and flathrowers.
Bai Ye stood at the exit, overhead was the solar beam reflected by the spotlight, illuminating most of the shelter.
