Lin Feng then briefly vented about the chain reaction of the underground explosion and the mutant riot:
"These Salvation Army guys must have caused big trouble!"
Ding Yi frowned slightly:
"Doesn't that mean we won't be able to collect the Desert Wolf Source Material during this time? Those mutants will probably keep roaming the upper three floors, and entering there would mean facing the threat of the Tier Three Mutant..."
Lin Feng sighed lowly, that was exactly what he was worried about. He had no idea what kind of mess the Salvation Army had stirred up below, drawing the monsters from the lowest level upward.
Ultimately choosing to rescue them was also a move towards potential collaboration afterward.
To see if they could solve this Tier Three Mutant.
With only Lin Feng's team of six, even if they tried their utmost, they couldn't handle a monster of this level.
Should both sides cooperate, even if they couldn't kill this Tier Three Distortion King, they could drive it back below the fifth and sixth underground floors, no longer interfering with Lin Feng and others in collecting Source Crystals.
"We'll discuss it when the time comes. If it doesn't work out, we can try our luck at Fallen Wolf Valley or the shelter on the eastern side of the mountains."
Lin Feng spoke slowly.
The danger of trying their luck at Fallen Wolf Valley was not less than facing a Tier Three Mutant, with the Clan Leader-level Desert Wolf being more cunning and dangerous, making it the last resort.
However, the riots of mutants within the shelter ruins and the emergence of the Tier Three Mutant far exceeded everyone's expectations. If the plan couldn't keep up with the changes...
They had to improvise.
Or set aside grievances and prejudices between the parties.
Collaborate before the arrival of the Scorching Sun Forbidden Area to complete each other's objectives and tasks.
After listening to Lin Feng, an idea suddenly hit Ding Yi.
Once Liu Qian left the two of them and returned to her dormitory car to work on crafting the empowered Holy Water Hollow Point Bullets, Ding Yi slowly and softly spoke:
"Liu Qian's superpower is related to the Scorching Sun Forbidden Area. Could we use her ability to disperse the mutants in the ruins?"
"Or let her absorb a certain amount of Scorching Sun Rays, and then channel it into weapons or ammunition, making them have a special attack effect like the Holy Spring Water?"
"According to the principles and tiers of evolution, the power of the Master of the Holy Spring is stronger than the Tier Three source of pollution, and the Scorching Sun's curse is more terrifying than the Holy Spring Water, causing more significant damage to mutants..."
"If we can harness the Power of the Scorching Sun Curse..."
After Ding Yi finished speaking, Lin Feng's eyes narrowed slightly as he contemplated the possibility.
For a Tier One Evolver, there is already a certain resistance to the Scorching Sun Curse. As long as it's not long-term concentrated exposure, it won't accumulate to the point of triggering the spontaneous combustion curse.
It's different from Su Yueyue's situation. When she was infected by the Scorching Sun exposure, she had just woken up from the shelter, only five or six years old, possibly without even early-stage enhancement.
As an ordinary person and at such a young age, the subsequent healing became very troublesome; helping her evolve prematurely would only worsen the delay, allowing the Scorching Sun Curse to seep deep into her bones.
Now it even requires different King-level genes to be integrated to suppress the Scorching Sun Curse within her body, to prolong her life.
For Liu Qian, it would be much easier, as long as she doesn't endure the sustained exposure to concentrated sunlight like the Moonlight Ceremony of the Oasis Upper Class, generally, it will be fine.
Back at Lao Mountain Peak, Lin Feng had seen the Scorching Sun Forbidden Area up close, and even unexpectedly caught a glimpse of something resembling Yang Nie. Aside from a needle-pricking pain, the impact was not significant.
But what Lin Feng worried about was not this point.
If Liu Qian increased contact with the Scorching Sun, even if maintaining it within a certain safe range, over time, there would be a significant possibility of being persistently eroded by the Fiery Sun Energy, worsening into the self-combusting curse.
Besides losing her life, if she becomes a follower of the Fiery Sun Divine Sect, it would pose a tremendous threat and destruction to the team and the human settlements.
Moreover, Liu Qian had already shown admiration for the Scorching Sun when she was in dire straits.
If it prompted her to worship the Scorching Sun and become a follower of the Fiery Sun Divine Sect, it would be a disaster for the team.
Seeing the conflicted expression on Lin Feng's face, Ding Yi discerned his concerns and then added:
"This is just a suggestion. If there are other ways to resolve it, such as collaborating with the Salvation Army, then there's no need to risk letting Liu Qian contact the Scorching Sun."
Lin Feng responded with a hum, then lowered his voice and asked:
"How is Yueyue's condition?"
Ding Yi glanced over at the armored transport vehicle beside them; Su Yueyue was inside:
"Gave her some dried meat and water. After eating, she fell asleep with the Divine Dog, and no major issues have appeared for now."
"If Father Su An is in a hurry over there, he should send someone to respond, so there's no need to worry too much."
Lin Feng nodded, glanced at the time, knowing twelve hours had passed since their departure, reaching the second day's noon:
"Alright then, let's prepare lunch, rest for eight hours, and discuss after today's day and night transition."
Ding Yi then got up, using a fully charged battery to start the electric stove for cooking.
She had bought many seeds and seedlings from the shop in the Guild Agricultural Village, already planted in the cultivation boxes, soon achieving freedom of vegetables and fruits.
Besides seedlings, there were also some cheap bean yams, a type of mutated potato rich in starch, which was also the staple food for the students and children in Holy Spring Village.
Chopping the bean yams and simmering them with evolutionary dried meat, adding some seasoning made a dish comparable to the old-style potato stew with meat, filling the air with an enticing aroma.
At this time, after eating half a piece of late-term evolutionary meat, Lin Feng had recovered most of his strength.
