Chapter 292 Cooperation, Declaration, City of Steel, Old Friends

After learning about the relevant situation from Zheng Ming...

Lin Feng and Zhi looked at each other, seeing the regret in each other's eyes.

In order to collect the genetic species of reptiles as soon as possible, after returning from this trip, it is necessary to start a journey south, launch an attack directly south, recover Zhezhou and Minzhou, and finally reach Guangdong Province.

The Zerg queens killed along the way can also quickly accumulate the energy needed for Lin Feng to advance to the late third level.

"We can first occupy the first-tier coastal cities, so that we can block all the Zerg and Mother Queens in the interior of the continent, and then eradicate them one by one!"

Lin Feng said.

The cockroach nodded, letting Lin Feng relax:

"Don't worry, if you retreat to the ocean, the Zerg Mother Queen will lose her ability to compete. After all, to advance to the late third level, you need to perform the ritual of summoning the divine domain, and in the liquid ocean, such conditions are not met."

"Even if I'm desperate, I won't go back to the sea."

"Just like the Queen of Sea City was besieged by us in Sea City and did not choose to escape into the ocean. Moreover, to do so, she would have to dig deep under the sea, and all her second-order Zerg would have to be abandoned. The pressure on the seabed, It will make it difficult for these large insects to move."

"But there's nothing wrong with this idea."

While the two were talking, Zheng Ming, who had left on business before, turned back again. Among the group of people following behind him was a figure that Lin Feng was very familiar with.

General Chen, a high-ranking federal official.

Responsible for logistics management and external matters.

It was General Chen who personally invited Lin Feng and his Salvation Army to go north to aid the federal capital and lift the siege of the capital city. It was General Chen who personally came forward to negotiate with Lin Feng and others at the Jincheng base, and finally reached a cooperation.

Later, the breakout of the capital was successfully completed. Lin Feng led the Salvation Army not only to contain many Mother Queens in the west and south, but also unexpectedly thwarted the attack of the Multi-Emperor Alliance. While guarding Yunxia Ridge, he killed several Zerg Mother Queens.

Coupled with the fact that Qin Hu and the Nanfeng Corps were secretly supported by him, the senior federal officials could no longer remain indifferent and could only wipe their faces and go to Yunxia Ridge to meet Lin Feng.

Now that General Chen has come three times, it must be related to the situation on the northern front and the current tense stalemate in the war between humans and insects.

Qin Hu has regained the fallen federal capital, and at the same time advanced to the third stage, becoming the first person in the third level in the north...

Even though the number of forces, regiments and survivors under his command is less than one-tenth of the top federation, he already has the strength to defeat the Zerg Mother Queen and can establish a solid defense line on the frontline battlefield.

This alone is enough to make the semi-independent base forces in the rear fall to Qin Hu like grass on the wall.

After all, the benefits brought by a stable frontline base and the Zerg industrial chain behind it are beyond imagination.

And when Lin Feng appeared in the rear, the federal senior officials naturally came after smelling it.

The only person who can solve the high-level dilemma is the young and strongest human being in front of him.

When we met again, General Chen's military rank had been upgraded again, to the point of being in charge of logistics.

Therefore, I came to negotiate with full confidence.

As soon as he saw Lin Feng, he said enthusiastically:

"City Lord Lin, long time no see!"

Lin Feng nodded and motioned with his eyes to the other person to take a seat first.

General Chen sat on the sofa opposite and said:

"I came here this time. Like the Federal Research Institute, I hope to continue to cooperate with City Master Lin."

Lin Feng slowly raised his hand:

"After the Salvation Army returned to Jincheng Base, the Federation in the northern wilderness seemed to have no value or necessity in continuing to cooperate with the Salvation Army."

The previous conditions for cooperation among the top federal officials were to exchange the supernatural cells of the 60,000 to 70,000 awakened people under their command, as well as the fine steel that Lin Feng urgently needed to synthesize replicas at that time.

But now, the superpower cells and the superpower gene tree provided by the Federal Research Institute provide a complete collection of human superpowers, which will greatly speed up the research progress of Chiyi.

And a large amount of fine steel is continuously transported to the Jincheng base by the Iron and Steel United Group through the Yangtze River.

Coupled with supporting Qin Hu, he can hold the northern defense line and contain the remaining Queen Mother...

The Northern Federation, thousands of miles away, had little use value for Lin Feng.

Lin Feng's ruthless statement of the facts made General Chen's smile freeze for a second, but he quickly returned to normal and continued to smile:

"City Lord Lin will expand his power in the future and regain the lost territory of the Federation, so he will naturally need to continue to cooperate. What's more, after the birth of the Queen Mother in the late third stage in the future, nuclear weapons of higher yield will also be needed to seriously injure or even eradicate such threats."

"As long as City Lord Lin maintains his friendship with the Federation as before, we are willing to recognize everything City Lord Lin does in the south..."

“Including overt independence and statehood!”

Lin Feng narrowed his eyes. No matter how young and inexperienced he was, he had learned from various plot dramas how important the so-called legal system was after the founding of the People's Republic of China.

Recognition from the original federation means the legitimacy of Lin Feng's founding.

This is more straightforward than Princess Betty's status as a descendant of the kingdom, and more acceptable to survivors in the country.

At the same time, the federal recognition also means that Lin Feng can legally integrate the base forces entrenched in the middle and upper reaches of the river.

Of course, for those who refuse to submit, Lin Feng can also use some small means to make them understand deeply how the terrifying strength of third-level life forms is comparable to a small humanoid nuclear bomb.

To have such a reputation as a division, it is necessary to obtain the legitimacy of the claim from the top of the federation.

At present, General Chen, representing the top leaders of the federation, is proposing such bottomless conditions, which makes Lin Feng hesitate.

Although he could also use force to take over those overcrowded base cities.

But that would undoubtedly tie up too much energy of the Salvation Army.

It made Han Yuxin, Betty and others exhausted from the negotiations for incorporation and base management in the rear.

Thus greatly slowing down the offensive rhythm of the front line.

At the same time, the capture of the base city would also cause the people inside to panic, increasing the difficulty of reorganization in the later stage.

With the recognition of the Federation, it would save a lot of energy for Lin Feng and the Salvation Army, quickly complete the recovery of the occupied areas in the south, and at the same time attract the survivors who had fled from the cities in the coastal states...

Return to their original place of residence and resume production.

This would not only make it easy to support themselves, but also provide huge taxes to maintain the large-scale Salvation Army.

Now Lin Feng has nearly a thousand second-level awakeners and tens of thousands of first-level awakeners. With the dozen Zergs sweeping across the southern states, the number of awakeners will increase tenfold.

By then, there will be no Zerg to provide organic nutrient solution. The survivors will have to rely on farming and breeding to meet the daily food consumption of the Salvation Army. At least tens of millions of agricultural workers will be needed to turn the rich Jiangnan region into a land of fish and rice again.

To speed up this process, the recognition and call from the Federation are indispensable.

General Chen accurately grasped the needs of the Salvation Army, so Lin Feng had to give in for the sake of the overall interests.

The current senior officials of the Federation are stuck in the northwest wilderness. In addition to a signboard, their status is actually precarious.

So they would rather give up the unattainable Southern Nine Provinces in exchange for the current breathing opportunity.

The two sides are back to the time when each gets what he needs...

Lin Feng stared at General Chen with a smile on his face. Now he has been promoted to the late second stage. He is no longer old and haggard, and his face is radiant.

After hesitating for a moment, Lin Feng took a deep breath:

"Tell me, what are the conditions of the Federation?"

General Chen's tense nerves relaxed. In the previous conversation, his heart had already come to his throat.

The aura exuded by the young man in front of him was several times stronger than before. Even though he had been promoted to the second level and his strength had also increased several times, he was still as small as an ant in front of Lin Feng.

The other party could even wipe out his life with just a flick of his finger.

So in this negotiation, he needed to judge the situation and strive for more benefits for the Federation as much as possible without angering the other party.

So General Chen said after a long consideration:

"We need a third-level awakener, like General Qin, to sit in the northwest front base."

"I hope to complete this leap-level promotion with the help of City Lord Lin."

Lin Feng nodded. This was very simple. There were at least twenty Zerg queens in the fallen states in the south. Sharing an early queen in exchange for the stability of logistics supply and the rapid establishment of order...

It was totally worth the money.

So Lin Feng added:

"No problem, but I need the Federation to call on the survivors of the coastal cities who have fled in panic to return to their original places and resume the abandoned farming work."

"Otherwise, there will definitely be a large-scale famine this winter, and there will be starving people everywhere, and countless refugees outside the base will need a way to survive."

Although the major bases now have food reserves for the next two or three years...

But this does not mean that their rulers will be kind enough to waste precious food to help thousands of refugees outside the city.

General Chen nodded in agreement:

"That's right. Even if City Lord Lin doesn't mention it, we will appeal and call on the survivors from all over the country to return to the states in Jiangnan and resume production after the lost land is recovered."

Lin Feng then continued:

"Are there any other requirements? Say them all at once."

General Chen was startled, and his mind quickly worked to think and consider, and quickly went through the explanation given by the Supreme Council before the future.

Looking for the requirements that Lin Feng could agree to.

"If there is a chance, we hope to obtain relevant information about the gene warriors who enter the so-called artistic conception trial when they are perfect in the late second stage."

"Especially the process and method secrets of passing the trial in the trial world..."

After saying this, General Chen's temples were already dripping with cold sweat.

The artistic conception power of the gene warriors comes from the bloodline genes of the spinal insects, and this is also an important reason why Qin Hu's corps can fight against the Zerg invasion and put pressure on the Federation on its own.

In fact, the top leaders of the Federation are no less knowledgeable about the gene fusion project in cooperation with the Institute than Qin Hu.

It's just that Qin Hu took the lead in promoting this technology in an all-round way and successfully became the first person to try it out.

But this does not mean that the Federation is not clear about the potential and effect of gene fusion technology.

On the contrary, like Lin Feng, they consider it at a more profound level and do not want all humans to become hybrids of humans and insects and gradually become actual vassals of Zerg civilization.

It's just that the current situation does not allow them to worry more.

The right thing to do is to cultivate a group of second-level peak gene warriors who can master the power of artistic conception as soon as possible like Qin Hu.

Through the research on the gene mother Liu Yueqi and the high-level traitors in the capital city, the Federation has learned more secrets of the Zerg and some more advanced genetic technologies.

But only about the artistic conception trial, it knows very little.

Qin Hu and his second-level peak battle group also kept silent about this.

So the Federation had to seek Lin Feng's help.

Lin Feng didn't mind this, after all, the artistic conception of the gene warriors was stolen from the spinal worms.

The more they steal, the fewer the number of third-order king spinal worms will be born in the future.

So Lin Feng looked at Long Yi beside him, and she handed over this matter to General Chen, and listed a detailed artistic conception trial charter.

"Let's stop here. Apart from the hydrogen bomb, you can't offer any other conditions that can impress me."

Lin Feng waved his hand and ordered them to leave.

General Chen saw that the goal was basically achieved, and as for other things, they could also be completed through the Institute of Biology, so he stood up decisively and said goodbye.

And promised that the high-yield nuclear bomb would be delivered to the Jincheng base where the Salvation Army was soon.

After everything was over, Lin Feng and Long Yi returned to the laboratory building next door, accompanied He Jie and Ding Chenghai, and continued to look for clues in the information left by He Yiwen.

As for Lin Feng, he asked Zheng Ming for some electronic equipment and copied the video in the USB drive into it.

Carry it with you, and you can look it up at any time in the future.

Just like that, a night passed in a hurry.

The next day, Lin Feng held a photo frame of his family of three and slept until the afternoon.

Soon, Zheng Ming sent a message that the backup of the superpower gene tree had been prepared.

Lingyi went to check and saw three boxes of different colors, representing the three major directions of superpowers they had classified.

After confirming that everything was correct, Lin Feng left all the remaining organic nutrient solution of the four green-winged insects in the suburbs to He Jie and the others, and then put the three boxes on the green-winged insects.

Set off for the Jincheng base in the southwest.

When passing Wucheng in the land of two lakes, Lin Feng saw the headquarters of the Iron and Steel United Group, located in the original heavy industrial base in the north of Wucheng, the Wuhan Iron and Steel Factory.

Today, it has become a veritable steel city.

The steaming white smoke gushed out from the high-tube tower and flew into the clouds.

The hot boiler ignited by coking coal smelted metal streams from the ore powder and gathered them into rough embryos.

The deafening forging sounds of hydraulic hammers came one after another.

In this bustling production, Lin Feng's eyes were fixed on a 100-meter-high building standing along the Dajiang River in Wucheng.

Outside it, there was a sign of Iron and Steel United.

It was the headquarters of the group.

And there was someone Lin Feng needed to meet.

"Let's go downstairs and discuss the issue of belonging to the Salvation Army with the Iron and Steel United Group..."

"Also, meet an old friend."

Lin Feng sat alone on a green-winged insect, looking at the Dajiang River and the Steel City under his feet, and spoke.

Long Yi frowned slightly, the first sentence was easy to understand.

Who was the old friend Lin Feng was talking about in the latter?

In fact, except Chen Yanyan, the other women around Lin Feng knew very little about this mysterious person.

Now there is a chance, Long Yi also wants to see this very special person in Lin Feng's mind.
