Apocalypse: My Items Can Upgrade Infinitely

Before hanging up, Lin Feng told Qin Hu about the Zerg Race’s rapid expansion, which he’d witnessed the day before while out collecting Upgrade Points for the RV. He urged Qin Hu to keep a closer eye on it.

Although the Thirteenth Division also dispatched scouts to monitor the Zerg Race’s progress as they dug in and expanded their territory, only Lin Feng dared to venture deep into their midst to track the movements of the Black Spine Zergs.

This valuable intelligence on Soldier Zerg distribution allowed the rear command to understand the Zerg Race’s true territory.

The Red-Armored Beetles had a wide and somewhat misleading range of activity. The Black Spine Zergs, however, were directly commanded by the Mother Empress, more accurately reflecting the enemy’s true movements and allowing for deliberate preparations in advance.

War is a battle of information.

The better you understand your opponent, the greater the chance of victory.

On the other end of the line, Qin Hu seriously agreed and offered his thanks. Lin Feng then hung up. By this time, Chen Yanyan, wearing an apron, had already finished making brunch and was bringing over a large, hearty bowl of beef noodles.

The steaming, cream-colored noodles released the aroma of the beef chunks, instantly filling the air with a tantalizing fragrance.

Having worked all night, Lin Feng’s appetite was stoked. He immediately grabbed his chopsticks and began to dig in.

Once his stomach was filled with the nutritious meal, Lin Feng finally initiated his own Lv. 17 Upgrade.

He’d been exhausted late into the night yesterday, and with the two women taking turns seeking him out for some ’diligent studying,’ the somewhat drained Lin Feng naturally hadn’t risked initiating his own Upgrade.

After so many Upgrades, he’d figured out a pattern: the boost from an Upgrade was most effective when his own physical State was optimal.

Although the Attribute increase during an Upgrade originated from his bound equipment, the process of absorbing that mysterious energy also consumed some of his own Energy to facilitate the transformation of his body and Spirit.

That was why Enhanced People didn’t immediately enter the process of Upgrading and Awakening after killing a Black Spine Zerg. Instead, they would wait until their bodies were relaxed and in a good State before initiating the Awakening.

Now that Lin Feng had eaten and drunk his fill, he took the opportunity to begin his own Upgrade. A powerful, warm current flowed into his body, washing over every tissue and cell.

Lin Feng, however, was already used to the sensation and showed no outward sign of anything unusual.

He lifted the large bowl and gulped down the last of the broth.

Across from him, Chen Yanyan had overheard his call with Qin Hu. She put down her chopsticks, her brow furrowing slightly as she asked:

"If you go look for Jiang Yun’er now, will she agree?"

"Do you need me to edit a few photos? I can send them to your phone for you to take with you."

Lin Feng shook his head and wiped his mouth with a napkin:

"That’s our ace in the hole. Using it for just this would be a waste. We’ll wait until she’s about to leave the front lines, brimming with confidence. We’ll send it then. That way, she’ll never forget us."

As he spoke, Lin Feng bent down and picked up a black gauze shawl that had fallen near the sofa. He’d only just noticed it when he glanced down during his phone call.

It was just a thin layer, and with the dim lighting last night and Jiang Yun’er’s hasty departure, she hadn’t noticed it was missing.

Holding it in his palm, he could feel its special, mysterious texture. The thin black gauze seemed like it would make any woman who wore it appear more elegant and mature.

Chen Yanyan took the gauze from Lin Feng’s hand, untied the apron at her waist, and draped the black shawl over her shoulders. After a quick spin on the spot, she leaned in close to Lin Feng:

"How is it? Do I look good?"

The corners of Lin Feng’s mouth turned up slightly, and he nodded seriously.

Thanks to their repeated ’duets,’ Chen Yanyan had transformed from a tall, cool beauty with long, straight black hair into a sophisticated, mature woman. The gauzy shawl, with its semi-transparent quality, only enhanced her mysterious and seductive allure.

"You should wear one in bed for me sometime. This one looks like it has some stains on it, which makes it perfect for giving back to Jiang Yun’er."

Lin Feng’s sharp eyes had spotted a few white marks on the chest area of the black gauze, which slightly spoiled the effect.

Chen Yanyan let out a small "Huh?", then quickly took off the shawl and tossed it to Lin Feng:

"You’re not going to wash it before giving it back to her?"

Lin Feng shook his head, tossing aside the shawl that had landed on his face, and pulled Chen Yanyan into his arms.

"You don’t get it. This is exactly the effect I’m going for!"

After a few moments of intimacy, Lin Feng, dressed in a T-shirt and shorts, stepped out of the RV and into the area outside the repair shop.

By now, the construction site was in full swing. A U-shaped, five-pointed forward outpost was being erected around the former mall lounge building.

Lin Feng knew this type of fortification had a special name—he believed it was called a Fortress. It had come into prominence on the battlefield with the popularization of firearms.

Its protruding structure used multiple faces to expand the range of attack and create overlapping fields of fire. It was especially effective in defensive battles, where it could perfectly bring out the maximum destructive power of firearms.

Qin Hu’s plan was likely to use this place to recreate their past miracle.

And of course, this plan hinged on Lin Feng’s Superpower Bullet Superpower.

As long as he could help the main front at critical moments, draw the Swarm’s attention, and avert a few crises, the investment would be more than worth it.

The basic framework of the forward outpost was already up. All that remained was for the molds to be filled with concrete.

Lin Feng estimated it was about fifteen meters high. The walls also sloped outwards as they rose, possessing a distinct angle that would make it exceedingly difficult for the Swarm to scale them and breach the base.

After getting a general sense of the base’s construction, he headed out, carrying a small gift bag that contained the gauze shawl the celebrity had left behind the night before.

He slowly walked towards the parking lot on the other side. The film crew’s vehicles were parked there, and Jiang Yun’er’s luxury RV was parked right in the middle.

The moment Lin Feng appeared, the crew members all stopped what they were doing to stare intently at his approach.
