Wasteland: My Items Can Be Infinitely Upgraded-Chapter 432 - 216: Oasis Changes, Command Control Room, Key

Chapter 432: Chapter 216: Oasis Changes, Command Control Room, Key

Zhang Hui continued to speak:

"The true command control room of the Oasis Battleship is not located at the top level or the fore and aft of the ship, but at the center in the front of the ship."

"This ensures the safety of the command control room."

"Although there is a command room established at the fore outside the Church’s rear, it is only responsible for lookout duties, observing the situation ahead and outside, and transmitting intelligence to the true internal command control room."

"The reason it’s called a command control room is because it can directly control the battleship’s power system and simultaneously maneuver the battleship."

"Thus, only by controlling it can one thoroughly control the entire Oasis Battleship."

Upon saying this, Lord Bishop had already led Lin Feng and another person into a narrow secret passage.

This passage is only three meters high and two meters wide, allowing just one person to pass at a time; they could not walk side by side.

Adding the weight of his heavy armor, which is almost half a ton, Lin Feng dared not walk too fast for fear of damaging the passage.

Therefore, the group’s advance was very slow.

It also allowed Lord Bishop to continue introducing precautions for safeguarding the Oasis Key.

In fact, these words were all directed at Lin Feng, with Xu Wanshuang, who was also dispatched to protect it, being completely ignored.

The woman, wearing only light battle armor, walked at the back, without paying attention to being ignored by Lord Bishop, after all, sending the Hunting Wilderness Guild to guard the key was completely redundant.

The Guild President’s real intention, after all, wasn’t focused on the task at hand; he had previously told Xu Wanshuang that it was just a formality, to show the Li Family and others the Guild’s stance. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

In reality, she was also aware that with Lin Feng present, she couldn’t intervene in whatever scheming went on between him and the Church.

Sending Xu Wanshuang was merely a pretext to let his sister have more interactions with Lin Feng, paving the way for deeper cooperation in the future.

As for Xu Wanfeng himself, he still needed to take part in arena matches, serving as a referee, ensuring the accuracy of the competition’s results and preventing the escalation of conflicts.

Soon, Xu Wanfeng’s figure appeared at the end of the passage.

Upon seeing this, Lord Bishop quickened his speech:

"Remember, the Oasis Key controls the power supply from the Oasis Power Furnace or closes the passage; only by doing so can one command the battleship."

"Other steering systems that alter course and controls for other battleship functions are all integrated within the control room. Possessing the Oasis Key also means you can be the captain of Oasis, directing the entire battleship’s advancement."

"Once you’re temporarily given the Oasis Key, you’ll be the deputy captain for the next four days."

"And the highest-ranking person on the entire Oasis."

"Aside from those responsibilities, you also need to assume responsibility for Oasis’s security, continuously monitoring images from the lookout towers to be aware of the Oasis Avenue and the surrounding area’s conditions."

"This time, the Li Family, with their aggressive schemes long devised, must be well-prepared. We’ve only seen the enemy’s overt arrangements, not what other contingencies they might have hidden."

"There may even be ways to hire external helpers, such as calling in the Wandering Force, leading a wolf into the house."

"Your task is to keep an eye on situations near the Oasis; once any enemy presence is detected, you must quickly issue a warning and prepare a response."

Upon saying this, Bishop Zhang Hui noted Lin Feng’s expression appearing somewhat unnatural, thinking he might have spoken too harshly, so he continued to reassure:

"But don’t worry too much; inside the command control room, I’ve arranged a risk control group, so you won’t genuinely need to work with nerves constantly heightened."

"You only need to follow the group’s suggestions and issue commands based on real-time developments."

"We have pre-planned other response strategies as well, and your main task is to safeguard the Oasis Key, and secondly to ensure the Oasis Battleship remains unscathed."

"Even if war eventually breaks out between both sides, even if we have to sacrifice the other Five Major Villages, we must ensure the safety of the battleship."

"To this end, I have authorized the group to utilize Oasis’s basic firepower, and Lin Xiaoyou, you can also use your own artillery weapons for support."

Lin Feng nodded, indicating he understood Lord Bishop’s meaning.

Previously, when he mentioned the Li Family’s contingencies and collusion with the Wilderness’s Wanderer forces, Lin Feng nearly lost his composure.

Because the one truly connected with the Wanderer forces was actually him.

In this context, Lin Feng controlling the Oasis Key seemed akin to being the thief acting as the watchman.

However, since Oasis Town wasn’t his to begin with, Lin Feng was at most a temporary keeper, and with merely a four-day timeframe, along with the Five Major Villages not being in the core protection zone, if they were truly to be handed over to the Salvation Army, then so be it.

Lin Feng believed even Lord Bishop would agree to this condition.

After all, the core conflict of this struggle was the Oasis Battleship, not the village tribes where the enemy resided.

Only by securing the Oasis Battleship first could there be future engagements and cooperation with the Holy City Diocese; otherwise, Lin Feng, already deeply involved, would also be labeled as part of the Rebel Army, becoming one of the scapegoats for Oasis’s downfall.

Lord Bishop, having managed Oasis for many years, had naturally left various contingencies long ago.

Lin Feng was not worried about any external power interference.

As long as nothing went wrong within the Oasis, no matter how fiercely battles erupted outside or if large armies attacked, Lin Feng was fully confident in isolating all threats externally.

After all, the combined power of the twenty-seven Thermite Annihilation Cannons, even for a Tier Two Late Stage Evolver, would require avoidance.

After nodding to assure Lord Bishop, Lin Feng followed him out of the secret passage, arriving in a vast area.
