Chapter 138: Chapter 108: Forming a Convoy, the Strength of the Salvation Army

Father Su An nodded:

“That’s right. Originally, the Li Family planned to use a hundred years of accumulation to nurture a Tier Two Evolver, but they were caught off guard by the Salvation Army wandering in the wilderness.”

“Now it’s like losing both a bride and the army they sent, unless they give up their struggle, they’ll be even more desperate!”

Lin Feng took a deep breath:

“Understood. I’ll complete the preparations as soon as possible and aim to set out by tomorrow.”

Father Su An responded:

“No need to rush, still need to prepare thoroughly to avoid any failure in future actions. I’ll inform you of the specific tasks when the evolutionary meat from the late-stage Leader Level Rock-Horned Horse is delivered.”

The two of them exited the “Early Morning” Upper District, passed through the now-calm streets, and entered the interior of the Oasis Battleship.

Soon, they returned to the desolate surface through the stairs to the right from where they had come.

Returning to the ground, Lin Feng felt as if he had experienced another world, like a tale from the Peach Blossom Spring.

Looking back at the tens of thousands of deserters orderly lining up to receive the water from the Church, the blessings of the Lord, unaware that they are also part of the truth…

This sight pulled Lin Feng back to reality.

Life for the Upper Class in the Oasis, as Father Su An described, is like canaries in a cage, having clothes to stretch out for and food to open their mouths to, living without worries for ninety years…

Yet lacking freedom.

This is not the life Lin Feng wanted.

Upon returning to Holy Spring Village, Chen Shanshan and her group of three were already driving back in their combat vehicle.

Additionally, there was now another modified bus following behind.

Chen Shanshan saw Lin Feng return and breathed a sigh of relief.

She had been worried that Lin Feng would stay in the Oasis as a member of the Upper Class.

Chen Shanshan walked forward, pulling Lin Feng to the newly purchased bus, opening the door to introduce:

“We directly approached the Hunting Wilderness Guild, and Chairman Xu personally signed the deal. This transportation vehicle, originally a bus, was modified just a few years ago. It is twelve meters long, four meters wide, and three meters high after modification.”

“Equipped with forty Advanced Photovoltaic Panels, with a maximum load capacity of eight tons, it also has ten battery packs providing an extra fifty kilometers of range. Its top speed at no load is twenty kilometers per hour, but when fully loaded, it drops to only five kilometers per hour.”

“As long as we optimize speed a bit, there should be no problem.”

“It’s especially affordable, costing a thousand points for the body, two thousand points for the power system and panels, and a thousand points for the ten battery packs. However, the large motor in the chassis, with front and rear double-drive, costs a thousand points, along with other features like air conditioning which costs several hundred points in total.”

“Thus, the original cost of this modified bus was over five thousand points.”

“Chairman Xu even specially found the receipt from back then to prove it, ultimately giving us a fixed price of four thousand.”

Lin Feng approached to check the aging condition of the vehicle.

It showed four years of driving time, which is considered eighty percent new on the wasteland.

But the lifespan of photovoltaic panels is under four to five years remaining, and the circuitry system is also somewhat aged, with many welded parts on the vehicle showing slight cracks.

This means the rated load of eight tons can only genuinely carry just under seven tons.

Lin Feng felt that even if they priced it at three thousand five hundred points, the Hunting Wilderness Guild might sell it.

However, considering time efficiency, buying today meant they could use it today, so a higher price seemed acceptable.

After all, for this size, it is almost four times the size of the Gold Cup van the team originally ordered.

According to the efficiency of Mechanical Village and Dawn Village, it would take four to five days to deliver.

What the team lacks most now is time.

As Lin Feng continued his inspection, the attribute data of the transportation bus also appeared at the corner of his eye:

“Light Transport Vehicle Level 13, Red Quality”

“Basic Attributes: Defense 90; Durability 7/10; Top Speed 20km; Can consume five Life Value points to upgrade”

“Extra Attributes: Gear Speed Regulation (1/5/20km), Extra Large Load (7 tons), Air Conditioning Cooling (car interior temperature -10°, vehicle power -20%)”

“Evaluation: A common light transport vehicle, modified from a bus, usable as a personnel transport tool or to transport approximately seven tons of goods; it has a very good basic condition and modification potential, try more upgrades and optimizations, a mobile fortress in the future is beckoning to you”

Seeing the situation looked good, Lin Feng immediately asked:

“Using this as a transport vehicle, is there also a personnel rest and equipment vehicle?”

The original Gold Cup van, after Lin Feng’s upgrades and modifications, has transformed from a small passenger car two meters wide and six meters long into a combat vehicle three meters wide and nearly eight meters long.

In the future, it will continue to develop towards an armed core.

Therefore, functions like long-distance transport and personnel logistics have to be separated onto other vehicles for specialized roles.

If Lin Feng forms a convoy in the future, he will also add new vehicles based on current categories as needed.

Upon hearing Lin Feng’s inquiry, Chen Shanshan nodded:

“Since things like beds need to be designed in advance, the guild doesn’t have vehicle models meeting our needs; most of their stock is transport vehicles.”

“We’ll head to Mechanical Village and Dawn Village later to finalize a four-thousand-point medium bus conversion.”

“The vehicle is eight meters long, three meters wide, and two and a half meters high, with two-level sleeping berths of four compartments comfortably accommodating eight people. Additionally, the rear has storage space of three meters long and three meters wide, nearly ten square meters, enough to fit all our weapons and equipment without crowding.”
