Wasteland: My items are infinitely upgraded.

Chapter 19 Combat uniform, lv5 -bullet pistol, bath

The manager of the Shuguang store is a middle-aged man with a broken leg. Although he stands up with the help of a cane, his aura is still very strong.

He is an evolver above level nine.

Seeing Lin Feng asking the question, he said calmly:

"Glass materials cost five points, while resin materials are a bit more expensive, costing ten to twenty points. Myopia below 300 degrees is included in the package, but for every degree above 300 degrees, an additional two points will be charged."

“We don’t bargain.”

Lin Feng was stunned and a little surprised.

I didn't expect glasses to be so expensive. They are just cheaper than watches.

Glass plates and resin films are needed to make solar panels, and glasses are equivalent to a side branch of the Shuguang Village industry.

"What's the difference between the two? The price is more than double?"

Lin Feng asked in confusion.

The store manager picked up a pair of glasses and held them up to the light:
"Glass is heavy and fragile, but has good light transmittance and is not easily scratched. Resin is light and not easily broken, but has average light transmittance and is prone to many scratches after wearing for a long time."

"Older people can get glass ones, while those who are still young and need to go out on missions can get resin ones."

Lin Feng nodded and pointed to the camouflage combat uniform hanging in the glass cabinet:

"How much is this set?"

The store manager looked at the combat uniform and said calmly:
"Fifty points for a single shirt. A set would be a hundred points, but I've had it for so long, I'll give you a 20% discount."

Lin Feng took a deep breath. Eighty points was not cheap.

He currently has at most fifty kilograms of dehydrated meat, plus the points from the sale of the Photovoltaic Rock Armor just now, which is about one-third of the total, only a hundred points in total.

A set of combat uniforms would cost 80% of one's savings.

No matter how much you want it in your heart, you can only suppress the impulse in the face of the high price.

But as the saying goes, it is better to make than to buy.

Lin Feng plans to make a well-fitting battle suit for himself.

Then use the upgrade system to upgrade the grade.

Even his tailoring skills were terrible, and he had no idea how to thread a needle, sew, or splice.

But soon a figure appeared in his mind.

After saying goodbye to Shuguang Store in a dejected manner, Lin Feng walked out of the hall and into the aisle, where Chen Shanshan and the others were waiting.

She was chatting with Uncle Wu, the security guard at the door.

When Chen Shanshan was a child, Uncle Wu, who was a hunter, was familiar with her master and had some friendship with him.

It is not easy to meet acquaintances when you are old. Chatting with Chen Shanshan made Uncle Wu feel happy, so the two of them stayed here for a while.

No one is allowed to stay in the guild hall, including the aisles, unless there is something important to do. Especially for Lin Feng and Liu Mingfei, who are still unidentified barbarians. One of Uncle Wu's duties is to drive away those who are trying to take advantage of the air conditioning.

Seeing Lin Feng coming, Chen Shanshan said goodbye to Uncle Wu, took the two of them out of the guild and returned to the tricycle.

"Why, did you just see something you want to buy? How many points are needed?"

On the way back, Chen Shanshan asked.

Lin Feng shook his head:
"A set of combat uniforms, but it's too expensive, not worth it."

Chen Shanshan nodded and told her plan:
"I think we should replace the shield and go to the motorcycle village to install a suspension and shock absorption system for this tricycle. This way, when driving off-road in the Gobi Desert or gravel piles, people will be more comfortable and the speed can be increased."

"We were lucky this time; the wolves didn't chase us. If they target us next time, it will be hard to say for sure."

Lin Feng nodded and agreed:
"That's right. We'll also weld an iron cover to the driver's seat and the roof of the car. We'll also replace the tires with thicker ones. If we have extra money, we can add an electric power assist."

"Unfortunately, I just looked at the price of solar panels. Just one square meter costs nearly a hundred points."

"To save up enough space for a four-square-meter roof for a three-wheeled vehicle, you need to go hunting at least twice, and that's with a good harvest."

Chen Shanshan shrugged and returned to the back of the bus. She turned the front of the bus around and fixed it on the hook under the rear compartment of the bus.

"Let's talk about it later. Now take a rest and relax."

Then he jumped onto the tailgate of the car.

Lin Feng and Liu Mingfei followed.

During this time, Lin Feng asked Liu Mingfei if he wanted to go to the bathhouse together. The latter didn't have much demand for it and planned to discuss it with his sister first.

After Chen Shanshan entered the bus, she excitedly found Boss Huang and successfully exchanged a pound of wolf meat from him for three passes.

Lao Huang is acquainted with the owner of a bathhouse.

Unlike the barbarians who go to worship at the holy spring, they have to travel more than ten kilometers and pray devoutly under the scorching sun for three or four liters of water.

All registered permanent residents in the five major villages have their own quota, 50 liters per person for half a month.

And the purchase price is extremely low, only a symbolic two kilograms of dried meat.

This is also the largest source of water for the bathhouse.

Many permanent residents do not work or go out, and cannot consume all the water. The bathhouse owner then asks for this portion of the water and gives it to the friends who sell it in exchange for bath tickets.

For example, Mr. Huang’s family actually has two quotas.

He also has a son who is only seven years old and attends the church school in Shengquan Village. The tuition is free and the school is boarding. He rarely comes back.

Therefore, most of the 100-liter quota was sold to the bathhouse owner. In addition to the free bathing himself, he also received five general tickets every half month.

Old Huang naturally used the bath tickets as a way to attract customers. He had already waived Chen Shanshan and the others' train tickets for the past two weeks, so he accepted a pound of wolf meat as collateral.

After getting the general ticket, Chen Shanshan took her spare clothes and toiletries and prepared to set off.

Ding Yi only has one set of clothes, so she has to use the captain's other toiletries.

Lin Feng's plan was even simpler. He planned to wear the new clothes he had on. There was no need to wash his old clothes, as they could be thrown away.

Lin Feng tried on that thin sleeveless vest with death-eating vulture feathers sewn on it, and the system directly judged it as a low-quality item that was not even at level zero.

It's really too natural.

Even if you want to upgrade and strengthen a set of clothing, you must meet the minimum requirements for the upgrade.

Even though Lin Feng is currently wearing long pants and short-sleeved shirts, the system still gives him a rubbish rating, with no potential for upgrading.

It just wastes health.

Lin Feng estimated that it would need to have at least preliminary protective functions before it would be worthwhile to continue upgrading.

Before leaving, Chen Shanshan did not forget to take her most important equipment, the titanium gun. Lin Feng also took the upgraded level 5 pistol with him.
"Hundred Bullet Pistol Level 5, White Quality"

"Basic Attributes: Damage 20, Effective Range 400m, Normal Ammo Remaining: 100, Wolf Fang Bullets: 6; Upgraded to the Host's Level Cap."

Additional attributes: Bullet recovery 1/1s, 100 rounds of space magazine, Wolf Fang bullet damage +5

"Evaluation: A pistol with 100 rounds of ammunition has a power comparable to that of a standard rifle bullet, boasting 20 points of damage and a range of 400 meters. A single shot can kill a mid-stage augmented human. Please use with caution."

One hundred rounds of spare ammunition are equivalent to three rifle magazines, and one round can be replenished per second. This is only a level five pistol. If it is upgraded to level nine, Lin Feng feels that he can easily kill a level nine mutant beast, and even challenge the evolver of a higher level.

But the prerequisite is that the other party is unarmed.

Otherwise, if you put on some titanium exoskeleton armor, you will have no choice but to surrender and run away.

When Lin Feng was checking the pistol, Boss Huang came to see him off.

Before leaving, seeing the two girls' excitement, Old Huang patted Lin Feng on the shoulder and said earnestly:

"Just talk about it, but don't let it go off the rails."

Lin Feng was stunned for a moment, then put the revolver into his waist, somewhat confused:
"I opened the insurance."

Before leaving, Ding Yi carefully hid the dried meat and locked the sliding door of the box. Then she followed the two of them and entered the three-wheeled compartment at the rear of the car.

Setting off again, Chen Shanshan quickly found a bus that was used as a bathhouse among the smoke-filled convoy.

There is a big sign with the words "Bathhouse" hanging outside, which can be seen from a distance.

The tricycle was hung at the back and the three of them got in.

The modified bus is divided into two areas, the front is a large bathhouse and the back is a compartment.

However, the big bathhouse is only open on Holy Spring Day. The ticket price for taking a bath together is cheap, and many teams of wastelanders will spend half a piece of dried meat to take a bath together.

But when Oasis Town started, the big bathhouse was no longer open. Instead, the pool of more than ten square meters was drained and stored in more than ten large barrels, which were filtered and purified for next use.

A moving pool, like a tanker truck, would generate tsunami-like surges that would damage the vehicle structure, so it is no longer open while in motion.

Moreover, large-scale evaporation will also cause water loss.

The bathhouse is run by a middle-aged couple.

After the three handed the tickets to the proprietress, they were taken to the compartment in the rear trunk of the car.

"The pass originally allowed use of both the main bathhouse and the private rooms. However, the main bathhouse is closed during the journey, leaving only the private rooms. Each person gets a fixed bucket of water. Please forgive me."

"If you really want to take a bath, you can choose a double room. There is a two-meter-long wooden barrel and a little over a meter wide, which can accommodate multiple people, but it needs enough water for at least two people."

Lin Feng opened it and took a look.

In the single room was an oil drum with a diameter of 60 centimeters and a height of more than one meter. It was mostly filled with water, more than 200 liters.

The boss was right. This amount of water was barely enough for washing, and it was far from enough for taking a bath.

Two buckets are too little, three buckets are just right.

However, this is all filtered clean water, while the large bathhouse is for mixed bathing.

Who knows what the people who washed it before did.

You can take a bath now, but it requires two people at least.

The three people present looked at each other.

"I haven't washed it for a long time, so I must take a bath to scrub it clean."

Chen Shanshan was a little unhappy. She wanted to bury herself in the pool, soak her skin all over and relax completely.

But there was one man and two women, and the only way was for Ding Yi to be with him, so he could barely have a date.

Try pouring two buckets of water into the wooden barrel.

Nearly 500 liters of clean water were in this large wooden barrel, less than half a meter deep, and the water was neither too deep nor too shallow.

Chen Shanshan frowned and looked at Lin Feng who was about to enter the single room opposite, and said hesitantly:
"How about together?"

But Lin Feng suddenly froze in place.

It was not Chen Shanshan's invitation, but he actually saw an "old friend" walking out of a compartment not far away.

The other person's clothes were still soaked and stuck to his skin, highlighting his slender figure.
