Chapter 43: Chapter 42: Su Yueyue, Level 8 Wolf Fang Handgun
Twelve o’clock noon, mealtime.
Because a special meal was prepared for Chen Shanshan, everyone could eat two courses after the three bells rang.
First, the usual meal together with the students.
Still in the canteen of the fifth carriage, but this time Father Su An did not come.
After finding about a dozen Mutated Wolf Fangs from the twenty-one Desert Wolf corpses, both the person and materials disappeared directly.
Although the priest was not present, the canteen remained quiet, with each child receiving their lunch in turn, and Lin Feng and the others collecting theirs at the end.
Lunch was much richer than breakfast.
There was a steamed meat steak, four ounces of horse meat, and besides that, a sticky mashed potato as the main dish.
The taste was slightly sweet, like a cross between a potato and a sweet potato, similar to the Mutated Sea Buckthorn Grass, another common edible plant in the wasteland.
No familiar rice or noodle dishes were seen.
Guessing is hard too.
Although Oasis water is plentiful, it is not luxurious enough to grow rice or wheat on a large scale.
Potatoes only need sunlight and water to grow rapidly, maturing in less than two months, with especially high yields.
Currently, mashed potatoes paired with Rock-Horned Horse Dried Meat have become the mainstream meal in Oasis Town.
As for green vegetables, they are considered a luxury in the wasteland, and although they’re grown in Nongzhuang Village, they are rarely sold, only Oasis Upper Class can enjoy a variety of mixed meals every meal.
Lunch, besides steamed meat mashed potatoes, was also accompanied by five Cherry Tomatoes, just to supplement the vitamins lacking in the body.
This kind of meal is something many Deserters in the wasteland dream of.
And it’s provided free here.
Holy Spring Village recruits children for free, and back at the Holy Spring Gathering, the reason Lin Feng could encounter Father Su An was that he was at the Slave Market, rescuing children under fifteen.
However, the number of children who could wake up from underground shelters is very few, as their resistance was too weak, unable to withstand the scorching baking of the Scorching Sun Forbidden Area.
So most of the children in Holy Spring Village are second-generation wasteland residents, with little knowledge of the glorious civilization of the past.
And they are more easily indoctrinated by the church, becoming faithful followers from a young age.
As Lin Feng ate mashed potatoes, he pondered and observed the model of the Holy Spring Sect.
The harsh environment of the wasteland is the natural soil for the church to take root, perhaps every town has a similar Holy Spring Village as the church’s blood source, continuously supplying power above.
This is much more terrifying than the large families in the Oasis Upper Class.
Amidst Lin Feng’s contemplation, a little girl carrying a tray sat beside him.
Unlike the other uniformly dressed and styled children, the girl had long hair, fair skin, and a delicate appearance.
There was a small flower hair clip on her hair, making her look like a porcelain doll.
The key was the aura she emanated, sometimes weak, sometimes strong, sometimes reaching Mid-Stage Enhancement, sometimes no response, just like an ordinary person.
"Hello."
Lin Feng politely said, feeling a bit curious.
The girl turned her head and very politely said:
"Hello, I’m Su Yueyue, the class monitor of Class Five. Are you guests of Father?"
Upon hearing the name Su Yueyue, Lin Feng realized something and nodded with a smile.
"Can you help to look for a small animal called Toad in your future outings?"
Su Yueyue continued.
At this time, three children, two boys and a girl, came to Lin Feng’s seat. One of the sturdiest boys put down his tray and hastily explained:
"I’m telling the truth! When I was young, my dad brought back from a mission, a soft-skinned animal the size of a palm, called Toad, and it croaked when caught."
"And it was precious, Nongzhuang Village offered a high price of hundreds of points, my dad didn’t sell it, but offered a lick for one point, at that time many Hunters and Deserters fought to pay, just to taste it."
"I called it Guagua."
"Unfortunately, my dad wouldn’t let me try it, later I secretly licked it, and guess what?"
The attention of everyone was drawn, and the boy continued somewhat proudly:
"The feeling was very wonderful, like being held in a mother’s warm embrace, comfortable, and at the same time, I seemed to hear God’s call, as if seeing the Master of the Holy Spring beckoning to me!"
Saying this, the boy felt some loss:
"Unfortunately, Guagua died less than a Holy Spring Day later, and my dad never caught it again."
Hearing that this animal called Toad could let people see the Master of the Holy Spring, the other children exclaimed at the boy’s vivid description.
Lin Feng’s mouth twitched, and any good impression he had for these little brats disappeared entirely.
As expected, little kids are always mischievous, at an age full of curiosity about the world, wanting to try everything.
Describing the licking of a hallucinogen so loftily was the first time Lin Feng had seen it.
Perceiving the boy’s slightly familiar appearance, Lin Feng suddenly asked:
"Is your dad’s last name Huang?"
The boy nodded, then revealed a hint of fear:
"No, you... do you know my dad?"
Lin Feng pinched his brow silently.
Turns out this one was Boss Huang’s son.
It seems that in his younger days, Old Huang wasn’t just a playboy but also a hippie.
The black history was exposed by his own son.
Next to him, Chen Shanshan, who was late to realize, burst into laughter upon hearing Lin Feng’s question, talking to the boy:
"Huang Haiwen is your dad!"
"Alright, let’s put an end to this matter. The Toad is not a good thing. What’s important now is that you focus on your studies!" Lin Feng said in a serious tone.
Avoid letting this group of kids go down the wrong path.
The three kids left with their trays, looking somewhat reluctantly.
Su Yueyue, sitting beside Lin Feng, pouted, a bit unhappy.
Seeing this little group leader as a young lady, Lin Feng’s speculation was mostly confirmed, so he comforted:
"Toads are especially ugly, not something pretty girls should play with, next time I’ll bring you other little pets."
Only then did Su Yueyue smile, shuffled closer to Lin Feng, turned her head to sniff him, and whispered:
"You smell so nice."
Lin Feng was taken aback, as this Exhaust Wind Combat Suit seemed to smell only of sweat and blood with nothing else.
After saying that, she picked up her tray, quickly ran back to her seat, and buried her head in it.
The other three girls, sitting by, could hear her whisper because they were so close...
The young woman could not escape their ears with her soft mutterings.
Ah Lian teased:
"From a fifty-year-old aunt to a ten-year-old girl, it seems you have them all charmed to bits."
"Eat and let’s go, the kitchen has prepared wolf heart. Just in time for everyone to taste."
To prevent this group of kids from going astray.
The three children left with their trays, looking somewhat dissatisfied.
Taking the stuff back to the car outside the church.
The size of a soccer ball wolf heart, cut into four portions, Chen Shanshan sliced them, pairing with Cherry Tomatoes, making it very chewy to eat.
As Lin Feng continued eating, he took out the pocket in his pocket for the last upgrade before becoming an Evolver.
At the same time, the revolver upgrade was also completed:
Effective Range, Ammo Capacity, Fire Rate, Bullet Speed"
"Level 8 Wolf Fang Handgun, White Quality, Marking."
