Chapter 133: Chapter 105: Stirring Each Other, Restless Hearts

“You’re so certain that I can evolve to the Late Tier One without becoming one of the sacrificial offerers going to the church?”

Lin Feng looked at the young woman in front of him with interest and smiled as he spoke.

He already knew the truth and had even less interest in staying in Oasis Town.

Shen Yue, with a lollipop in her mouth, nodded:

“Of course. Second-class Upper Class in the Upper District are the descendants of the first class, and their limit is ninety years old.”

“This means that within ninety years, if they can’t evolve to the Late Tier One, they become one of the sacrificial offerers. They have to participate in the Moonlit Ceremony every Holy Spring Day and draw lots to decide who will be the sacrificial offerer of the night.”

“But for outsiders who have just become Upper Class, the ninety-year limit starts from the year they join, so Mr. Lin, after becoming an Upper Class, you still have a full ninety years.”

“In such a long time, even if you save one thousand points a year, that’s ninety thousand points in ninety years, enough to exchange for a late-stage Evolution Agent. I think under Lord Su An’s arrangement, you will definitely complete the late-stage evolution in less than ten years.”

Lin Feng smiled. Late Tier One was not a problem for him at all, including becoming an Oasis Upper Class. Su An and Lord Bishop’s intention was also not to make him a sacrificial offerer.

His task was far more important than sacrifice.

Looking at Shen Yue’s encouraging expression, Lin Feng asked her in return:

“How much do you know about the situation in the upper echelon of the Oasis?”

Shen Yue frowned slightly, biting the candy in her mouth, and stared at the man in front of her:

“Oasis Town will forever shine under the glory of the Lord.”

“As long as the Church exists, no petty conspiracies could change this fact.”

Lin Feng maintained his shallow smile as he looked at the woman:

“No need to say official words.”

“I can meet Father Su An and Lord Bishop alone in a secret chamber; could it be that I wouldn’t know anything? I’m just new to the Wasteland and don’t understand the curse of the Scorching Sun Forbidden Area, but the struggles between major forces…”

“Back when I was involved in the building of the shelter, I’ve experienced much more than you!”

“From the looks of it, the Li Family will take action soon. Lord Bishop needs me to stay and help the Church rebuild order after the struggle…”

“That’s the real reason Father Su An arranged for you to persuade me to join the Oasis and become Upper Class.”

After listening, Shen Yue showed a shocked expression. The candy stick at her lips fell to the ground due to her slightly opened mouth.

After picking up the stick, Shen Yue looked at Lin Feng with a solemn expression:

“Is the situation really that serious?”

Lin Feng frowned slightly, but he realized that the other party was just a small Assistant Priest at Early Tier One, who had just arrived in Oasis Town and didn’t know the core secrets, which was normal.

After nodding in acknowledgment, Lin Feng’s lips curled slightly:

“It’s fine for you to know this, but remember to keep it secret.”

“But you can also prepare early, choose to protect yourself, or seize this opportunity to go further.”

“As the saying goes, chaos is a ladder to progress.”

“As long as you can grasp it, it might not be a chance to change your destiny and prove your loyalty to the Master of the Holy Spring!”

Lin Feng’s plain words, compared to Shen Yue’s invitation, seemed to have more magic power, making the young woman in front of him breathe heavily and her pupils dilate.

Shen Yue felt restless all over. Besides being known as a glutton in the Cardinal Court of the Holy City, she had another title: Monster Strength Woman.

Her developed metabolic system allowed her to store enough energy to continuously stay in a state of explosion, similar to a non-expiring Berserker.

But the premise is to be well-fed and have accumulated enough reserve energy.

Being dispatched to Oasis Town already made Shen Yue very unhappy, and her restless heart had long wanted to establish enough merits to return to the Holy City.

Unfortunately, the peaceful Oasis Town was like a stagnant pool, without any waves.

Day after day, year after year.

Shen Yue could only repeat her chanting and provide psychological counseling to the Upper District’s fattened pigs, making them believe in the greatness of their sacrifice and willingly step onto the sacrificial stage.

Initially, Shen Yue also believed what she was doing was meaningful.

Until she saw Upper Class members suffer and be burned alive one by one, even the emotional and proactive she became numb like other Cultivators in the Church.

Because only by being numb could she face it all.

The senior responsible for recording observations once told her not to have feelings for the Upper Class, as their cultivated existence was like livestock to be slaughtered, to be put on the execution stage at the appointed time to offer their ultimate value.

In reality, for humans struggling in the Wasteland, living like that for ninety years is more attractive than struggling at the bottom for nine hundred years, and more worthwhile.

Ninety years are enough for ordinary humans of the Old Earth era to live out their lives.

But what truly changed Shen Yue’s perspective was a saying circulating among the young generation in the Upper District in recent years.

Someone is encouraging the young new-generation Upper Class to end themselves before they turn ninety.

Because they know, with the Nine Great Governors and dozens of Late Tier One supervisors watching, there’s no chance to resist or escape.

Only by dying early could they avoid the painful end of being sacrificed and burned.

As a result, among the Upper Servants responsible for taking care of the Upper Class, there have been cases of secretly supplying them with poison.

But what truly angered and disappointed Shen Yue was not these small-time agitators but these people who, after enjoying all the luxuries, even wanted to avoid their only responsibility due to the pain during sacrifice.

In Shen Yue’s view, this is truly unforgivable, which is why she lost her last sympathy for these young members of the Upper Class.

Now, she focuses all her energy on accumulating enough merits, hoping to be transferred back to the Holy City as soon as possible with the Pilgrimage Convoy.

Now, this opportunity is about to present itself to Shen Yue, and her excitement and heartfelt desire are much greater than Lin Feng’s.

The latter is merely facing the choice of freedom in staying or leaving.

Shen Yue, however, has been trapped here for years.

If nothing unexpected happens, this may also be her last chance in this lifetime.

As the situation gradually stabilizes, Shen Yue might need to remain here and fade into oblivion until death.

With increasingly heavy breaths, Shen Yue stared hard at the man in front, who seemed to be smiling, completely unaware that in the past hour, the roles and statuses of the two had completely swapped.

At this moment, she had become the lower-ranking beseecher:

“The Church… Father and Lord Bishop… when… when do they plan to take action…”

“Besides the Li Family, who is the target for clearing?”

After saying these words, she almost exhausted all her energy, with blood rushing to her head, feeling parched.

Lin Feng still kept his smile, quietly observing the woman’s transformation:

“It shouldn’t be long now, once my team completes the task assigned by Lord Father Su An, it should start with the Li Family.”

“As for the targets for clearing…”
