End of the World: My Items Can Be Upgraded Infinitely.

Chapter 9: Awakening of superpowers, insecticide upgrade

Lin Feng pretended to be silent and thought for a few seconds. Under the curious gaze of the two women, he slowly explained:

"This is actually some kind of supernatural power, bound to the pistol. It can increase power and restore bullets by killing giant insects."

The pistol will continue to be upgraded in the future, maybe it will become bigger or have other attributes. Lin Feng can't keep hiding it, so telling it earlier can also boost the confidence of his companions.

As soon as the voice fell, Chen Yanyan instantly became excited and then asked:
"Superpowers? Awakened superpowers? Revived spiritual energy? Is it related to giant insects? Gained by killing insects?"

Lin Feng waved his gun, signaling her to be quiet:

"Shh, don't get excited."

"I don't know where it came from, so I have to use insects to do experiments..."

As he said that, Lin Feng kicked the red beetle next to him, then looked at his confused sister-in-law.

Zhang Yurou is older, her thinking cannot keep up with the pace of the two, and her ideas are somewhat out of date.

So Lin Feng explained to her again:
"It's some kind of superpower, just like the special abilities and qigong craze at the beginning of the century, it's just called something else."

"Sister Yurou, do you remember that you had a fever this morning?"

Zhang Yurou nodded, suddenly realizing:
"But I seemed to have a fever last night. I sweated a lot after running at night, but I didn't dry it off in time, so I caught a cold."

Lin Feng shrugged. He couldn't explain these things clearly. After he got Haicheng University, he asked more professional people:
"It should be related to each person's physique. Sister Yurou, you exercise regularly, so you upgraded and evolved after the fever. Don't you feel a little stronger?"

At this point, Zhang Yurou frowned slightly, clenched her fists, picked up the long sword and swung it, and finally nodded:

"I pay more attention to my physical condition. There are indeed changes, but I don't have special abilities like yours. Is it because I am not awake enough?"

Lin Feng hummed and pointed at the red beetle at his feet:
"Maybe you haven't killed any bugs yet, so the upgrade and evolution effect isn't obvious."

The two girls thought about it and it was true. Lin Feng was the only one here who had killed a giant insect. Maybe this was related to it.

But it is good news after all. Otherwise, judging from the current situation, ordinary people would be powerless against the insect swarm.

Seeing the two girls shift their attention from himself to the red beetle beside him, Lin Feng secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

In fact, he also had some doubts. The upgrade of ordinary people was related to killing giant insects, so he let Chen Yanyan try it first as an experiment.

While the Red Beetle was gaining upgrade points, Lin Feng held the level 3 fine pistol and started his own upgrade.

A familiar warm current flowed from the gun into the arm, and finally traveled around the body.

After a few moments, the upgrade is complete:
"Lin Feng, lv3/9"

"HP 20, Vt 15, SPR 14"

After this upgrade, each of the three attributes increased by 5 points. Lin Feng's physical data is now more than doubled compared to the initial data, and his strength has been greatly enhanced.

In the past, he was just an ordinary office worker, thin, and in a sub-healthy state for a long time. He might even be worse than his sister-in-law Yu Rou, who ran and did yoga every day.

But now, after three upgrades, Lin Feng's body has begun to show muscle outlines, and he has become much stronger, completely different from the skinny dog ​​he once was.

The improvement in his physical and mental fitness also enabled Lin Feng to better control the pistol, ignore the recoil, and make accurate shots. While increasing the firing rate, his hit rate also increased significantly.

After binding the equipment, the upgrades are complementary.

Lin Feng wanted to kiss the gun in his hand.

Every boy has a dream of picking up a weapon and shooting wildly. Lin Feng realized it today, and in the most perfect way.

Restraining his excitement, Lin Feng skillfully removed the magazine from the gun, took out the fully loaded bullets one by one, and stuffed them into his pocket.

At this time, the red beetle had eaten the entire corpse, even the bones, which it crushed and swallowed into its body.

During this period, whenever its health value exceeded 20, Lin Feng would remind Chen Yanyan to pick up the long knife and cut off its regenerated limbs.

When it had finished devouring the whole thing, the red beetle had less than ten health points left and was still dying.

The long sword in Chen Yanyan's hand also accumulated enough upgrade points. Lin Feng took it and upgraded it, then returned it to Chen Yanyan:
"You try it. Aim at the insect's head and kill it with one blow."

Chen Yanyan nodded and raised the long knife with some nervousness and effort. Because the blade was too heavy, she used all her strength to chop it down hard.

Lin Feng and Zhang Yurou were standing by, staring at her closely.

The level 2 long sword is very sharp, causing ten points of damage, cutting off the red beetle's head and directly reducing its health to the bottom.

After being tortured for more than an hour, the red beetle was finally relieved.

Chen Yanyan, who was nervous and excited, suddenly felt her whole body getting hot. Sweat kept secreting, soaking the lining of her clothes, and even her breathing became rapid and deep.

After taking a few breaths, he gradually calmed down.

Lin Feng watched her upgrade in just a few minutes: "Human, lv1/9"

"HP 12, Vt 8, SPR 8"

As expected, killing bugs can directly upgrade and evolve. This is the upgrade path for ordinary people, and the upgrade effect brought by killing bugs is much better than the naturally stimulated upgrade of my sister-in-law.

Not only are the attributes improved very highly, but more importantly, you will not feel dizzy or have a fever during the upgrade, or lose combat effectiveness, and the upgrade speed is also very fast.

This is extremely important in the apocalypse when you are surrounded by giant insects.

Thinking of this, Lin Feng looked at the level 3 fine pistol in his hand and suddenly had a bold idea.

In order to take the two girls away safely and reach Haicheng University, he cannot rely on upgrading alone. At least he has to let them have a certain ability to protect themselves when facing the giant insects.

So Lin Feng stepped forward and patted Chen Yanyan on the shoulder:

"How is it? Do you feel that you have improved?"

Chen Yanyan, who was in shock, came to her senses and nodded excitedly:

"That's right, it was a wave of heat that traveled through my body. After it ended, I felt that the long sword in my hand seemed to have become much lighter..."

"The people's condition has also improved a lot."

As she spoke, Chen Yanyan swung the long sword in her hand very easily, her joy evident in her words.

Lin Feng still remembered that before she upgraded, she was just a weakling with a physical fitness of 4. Now her physical fitness has doubled, and she must be able to clearly feel the drastic changes in her body.

The next moment, Lin Feng suddenly smelled a fragrance. The woman in front of him came up to him and kissed him on the cheek. Then she retreated like a rabbit, with a slight blush on her face:

"Thanks……"

Lin Feng rolled his eyes immediately, still pretending to be innocent in front of him. He glanced at his sister-in-law beside him and saw that she didn't care about anything. He shook his head and said:

"You're welcome. I'm just using you as an experiment to verify my guess."

After saying that, he ignored Chen Yanyan's angry stamping of her feet, picked up the long knife and handed it to his sister-in-law, then looked at the two women, his expression gradually becoming solemn, and spoke in a deep voice:
"Since we can upgrade and evolve and become stronger just by killing insects, we should change our thinking..."

"This may be our best chance. There aren't many giant insects in the community, only about a dozen. If we can kill them all, we can accumulate enough strength to head to Haicheng University."

"Over at the university town, which is closer to the urban area of ​​Haicheng, there will be more giant insects. We need to become as strong as possible."

As he spoke, Lin Feng pulled out the dagger tied to his thigh, leaned over and cut off the carapace of the dead red beetle.

The two women stared at Lin Feng with their heads down, as if thinking about something, but they both agreed and followed the man back upstairs.

Lin Feng wanted to make the carapace in his hand into a red armor shield, and at the same time, he explained and arranged the next tasks for the two women.

The most powerful weapon in my hand now is a pistol. I don’t have to worry about bullets, but changing bullets is a problem. There are two magazines, with a maximum of 24 bullets, and the basic damage of each bullet is 6 points.

Taking into account the empty shots and ineffective damage, Lin Feng estimated that one magazine could kill at most three red beetles.

But he can accumulate sixty rounds of bullets, enough to fill five magazines, so he needs someone to help load the ammunition, and the hand speed must be fast, and the twelve bullets must be loaded within at least twenty seconds.

After asking this question, Chen Yanyan volunteered:
"Leave it to me. My endurance and coordination are not as good as my sister-in-law's. I can't hold up the shield and chop with the knife at the same time. I did repetitive work like loading bullets in a factory during my summer vacation in college..."

Lin Feng nodded, took out a pile of bullets and magazines, and asked Chen Yanyan to try them out. Just as she said, after getting familiar with them, the loading speed was faster than she expected.

It only takes her fifteen or sixteen seconds to reload an empty magazine.

After confirming the division of labor, half an hour later, the three men walked out of the room fully armed.

Possessing a level 3 pistol, two solid red armor shields, and two level 2 long swords.

Although the entire lineup cannot deal with a large swarm of insects, it can definitely take advantage of the terrain of the house to deal with two or three red beetles at the same time.

Walking slowly to the door of Room 201, Lin Feng turned around and looked at the two women behind him.

They put on their helmets. Zhang Yurou, who had a better physique, held a shield and a long sword. Chen Yanyan followed behind her, responsible for using the long sword to add to the damage and reloading bullets for Lin Feng.

Taking a deep breath, Lin Feng reached out and inserted the key, ready to twist and unlock:

"Are you all ready?"

The two women nodded together.

His expression was extremely solemn, and he held the long sword tightly in his hand.

This will be the first time for the three of them to cooperate in actual combat.
