Seeing the Pilgrimage Convoy again, even though Lin Feng was already a Late-stage Evolver and owned three large electric vehicles, becoming the leader of a top Desert Hunting Team...

He still felt a sense of awe and insignificance in front of the 30-meter-long, five- to six-meter-high heavy trucks.

Such hundred-ton kings, with loads of over a hundred tons or even several hundreds, not only have powerful engines capable of running for tens of thousands of kilometers, but are also the only link between Oasis Town and the Holy City ahead.

Yet his convoy, with its three vehicles combined, only had a load of thirty tons, less than a third of one of theirs.

This time, the Pilgrimage Convoy, though delayed, still consisted of five vehicles just like last time, spanning over a hundred meters, speeding along Oasis Avenue at forty kilometers per hour.

In just a few seconds after starting, it overtook the snail-paced Oasis Town behind and quickly disappeared around the distant horizon.

Besides the kings, there were about a dozen small high-speed moving cars following closely, serving as scouts and guards.

The role of the Pilgrimage Convoy was not just a communication bridge between Oasis and the Holy City but also to help Oasis Town by probing in advance the road conditions along Oasis Avenue.

If there happened to be an obstruction or a road collapse, it could notify the rear in advance, preparing defenses.

Especially when advancing close to the Scorching Sun Forbidden Area, it is like walking on a cliffside, if the road is unexpectedly blocked...

For Oasis, it would mean a dead end.

Therefore, the existence of the Pilgrimage Convoy is more necessary.

As they sped away, Lin Feng also instructed his convoy to enter the Wilderness from the right fork.

Returning once more to the barren, desolate Wasteland Desert.

According to the city ruins marked on the map, everyone could confirm their position and maintain their forward direction without deviation.

In this way, after two hours of speeding, the convoy soon arrived at a county marked on the map.

The former urban area now left only broken walls, the remnants of foundations vaguely recognizable, along with weathered red bricks.

The war vehicles drove on the highway outside the county.

Though said to be a highway, after enduring thousands of years of weathering, it was already cracked, covered with a thick layer of dust and yellow sand.

Only the once-solid foundation remained.

The war vehicles moved over it, not blocked by mighty rocks nor driven onto rugged rocky grounds, sparing the vehicles from intense shocks.

Most importantly, according to map indications, following this highway relic would lead directly below the Taishan Ruins.

As long as they continued this path, they wouldn't veer off course.

But the journey was too dull, a stretch of desert landscape, combined with the overly dry inland air, even dried shrubs and grass heaps were quite scarce.

The repetitive scenery easily made one drowsy.

Fortunately, there were cigars given by Manager Qian, along with a box of concentrated mint candies, keeping drowsiness at bay with a smoke or a candy, instantly feeling rejuvenated.

Liu Mingfei took out his much-desired cigar, lit one up, and after a puff, his mind became instantly clear.

Previously, at the guild, he also bought ordinary cigarettes.

But ordinary smoking was like a scratch through a boot for Evolvers; though somewhat relieving, it always felt a bit lacking after a taste.

In short, it was not satisfying!

For a Level 13 Evolver, with a physical fitness ten times that of an ordinary person, metabolism was faster...

So much that before brain fatigue could be alleviated, it would already be circulated out by the body's blood.

At this moment, the cigar lit a fierce sensation directly to the head, making Liu Mingfei exclaim in satisfaction.

After smoking half of it, he dampened the burning end with water and continued driving for three more hours without any tiredness.

He remained observant and attentive, maintaining a stable pace to ensure that the two following electric vehicles weren't distanced.

However, when Liu Mingfei glanced at the rear-view mirror, he suddenly noticed that an unknown electric vehicle was trailing them on the road behind.

Liu Mingfei immediately became alert and quickly reminded Lin Feng, who was resting with his eyes closed:

"Captain Lin, wake up! There's something happening!"

Lin Feng, startled awake, promptly removed the map covering his face, adjusted the seat backrest, and surveyed the surroundings.

"It's behind us! In the rear-view mirror, a fourth car has appeared behind our convoy!"

Liu Mingfei continued to alert, sounding the horn to notify crew members in the two vehicles behind.

Lin Feng looked into the mirrors, and from his position, he could only see a blurred half silhouette of a car, which had already caught up behind the last accommodation vehicle, less than a hundred meters away from the convoy.

Realizing the situation was unfavorable, Lin Feng immediately ordered Liu Mingfei to pull over, simultaneously jumping from the front passenger seat to the rear compartment, donning his Level 16 Titanium Alloy Armor as fast as possible.

With this armor, combined with the power of the Level 17 Armor-Piercing Cannon and Rapid Fire Cannon, even if the opponent was a Tier Two Evolver sent by the Li Family...

Lin Feng was confident enough to fight!

As Liu Mingfei pulled to the side, the two rear vehicles also sequentially braked and stopped.

Except for the middle transport vehicle, fully armed warriors disembarked from the other two.

Lin Feng and Chen Shanshan were the first to take action, leaning against the back of their vehicle, ready to fend off the approaching electric car.

Upon seeing the armored girl, Lin Feng's brow furrowed slightly:

"Why aren't you wearing the Titanium Alloy Power Armor?"

Chen Shanshan shook her head:

"There's no time; that thing takes at least over ten minutes to wear properly, while the battle armor is just a matter of putting it on."

Lin Feng nodded, saying no more, keeping a close eye on the unfamiliar vehicle that had also come to a halt ahead.

Its sandy-yellow paint job resembled the dozen or so small cars at the rear of the Pilgrimage Convoy earlier.

Could the Li Family have discovered us?

At this moment, Liu Mingfei, Ah Lian, and Ah Ming, fully geared in armor, picked up their Level 9 AK rifles, aiming at the trailing vehicle.

And soon, as the camouflaged electric vehicle realized it had been discovered, it braked abruptly, halting mid-road...

The car door opened, and a person in a gray robe, hooded, walked out.

The person raised both hands, walking towards the squad.

Thirty meters away from everyone, the figure lifted their hood, revealing their true face.

The squad glanced, brows slightly furrowed.

Before them stood a woman donning a Church Badge.

And Lin Feng was greatly surprised.

For the woman approaching was the one who once toured him around the Oasis Upper District, a guide from the Holy Spring Sect...

Shen Yue!

How on earth did she appear here?!

Lin Feng instructed everyone to lower their rifles, while he put away his cumbersome Armor-Piercing Cannon, took the Lightweight Rapid-Fire Cannon, and walked over to Shen Yue, somewhat puzzled, asking:

"What are you doing here? Did Lord Bishop send you to monitor us?"

Shen Yue lowered her raised hands, giving Lin Feng a glance:

"What monitoring, we are here to assist, understand? This operation is crucial, relating to whether the Church can win the upcoming battles..."

"Lord Bishop and Father Su An, after discussion, decided to send us to assist Mr. Lin's Desert Hunting Team in completing this mission."

Lin Feng squinted his eyes, realizing the woman's essence was different than before; from an Early Stage Tier One Evolver, she had progressed to mid-stage, he then asked:

"Besides you, who else is there in the vehicle, and what's their strength?"

Shen Yue somewhat proudly:

"I have now become a full-fledged Senior Assistant Priest."

"On the vehicle, there's also a Senior Combat Priest and a Senior Assistant Priest, a total of three people."

"Rest assured, in this operation, we will not interfere with your plans and decisions; on the contrary, we will use the Power of the Holy Spring within us to help resolve mutants!"

"May the Master of the Holy Spring bless us!"
