In the early morning of the next month, after Wu Qi, Yue Zhanfei and others all woke up, they asked the survey force headquarters at Liming Base for a heavy field vehicle. Investigation Team No. 7 drove out of the high wall of the base in a new investigation vehicle. The investigation vehicle had a clear goal and headed straight to the depths of the sand sea at a high speed of 200 kilometers per hour.
"Based on yesterday's investigation, they decided to play the role of scouts tomorrow. Chris did not need to summon the throne ship until the critical moment. They tried to reduce the size of their targets as much as possible and detected information about the march of the Desert Plague Breeder. . Are they all red?" Yue Zhanfei asked all the members before entering the sand sea.
"Minghong."
For tomorrow's investigation, all members of Investigation Team No. 7 are gathered together. There is no shortage of reconnaissance, intelligence, melee combat, long-range, and large-scale killing weapons. Logistics treatment is replaced by the well-stocked advanced cell activator purchased by Wu Qi. It can be said that their investigation team is not good in the wasteland and the sand sea. Afraid.
The atmosphere in the inspection car was relatively relaxed. People did not need to be alert and nervous all the time, and could use the spare time to do some preparations and their own things.
Guo Baibo talked to someone he had not talked to yesterday, and communicated with Xiao Kui and Pi Chunsheng about establishing a "spiritual link". She found everyone and included the entire team into her "spiritual link" network.
Every second counts in battle, and information is even more precious. Everyone knows how to use the "spiritual link" and can communicate information across distance limits with zero delay. This will undoubtedly be a huge help for the future battles that the investigation team will encounter in Cocoa.
More than an hour passed after the investigation vehicle entered the sand sea. Before returning last month, Wu Qi found a locator in the trunk deep in the wreckage of the investigation vehicle and set the tracking signal. The Mingyue investigation vehicle followed the sensing information on the electronic map and returned to the place where the enemy planned the battle last month without taking any detours.
Suddenly, in the unchanging scene of the sea of sand, a huge piece of burnt black iron came into view through the front window. The electronic map on the console sent out a high-frequency fluctuation prompt, indicating that the locator transmitting the tracking signal was there. here.
That huge piece of blackened iron was the remains of the investigation vehicle they threw away last month.
Yue Zhanfei and Wu Qi thought at the same time that they searched in the vast sea of sand for a long time last month, and it was not until they got there that they finally encountered the enemy. Instead of searching aimlessly all over again, it is better to start from that direction and let the investigation vehicle continue the search in the direction in which the Desert Plague Chief marched westward.
"Captain Yue, keep driving forward," Wu Qi said.
Yue Zhanfei stopped staying near the wreckage of the investigation vehicle and drove in the direction where Wu Qi escaped in his memory. There was no rush when they opened the door. As soon as they opened the door, they saw the corpses of large plague species lying on the sea of khaki sand one after another, half buried by the dust.
"Take a look at the east car." Yue Zhanfei controlled the investigation vehicle to brake and slow down. Wu Qi took the initiative to open the door and go east. Gao Yuan glanced at the people in the car and followed him.
Wu Qi trotted all the way to the nearest corpse of a large plague species, squatting down to check it out. It had only been a day, and Wu Qicuo's body was very familiar, so familiar that it was still fresh in his memory.
That was the body of the tank beast, even though its body lay on the sand for a day and a night, its legs and legs covered by the wind and sand. But its head exposed on the sand, the wound on its throat pierced by a long knife, and its iconic armor plates with holes all indicate its identity.
Wu Qi took Shetuo and opened the sand where the body of the tank monster was buried, and put a little gravity on his palm. In less than two seconds, Wu Qi released the body of the tank beast from the sand.
The corpse of the tank monster was exposed to the air, and it was clearly visible. What was special was that the corpse was extremely well preserved. Apart from the lowest degree of decay after a day and night, there were no traces of being eaten by any plague species.
"Boss." Gao Yuan called Wu Qi. Wu Qi turned his head and glanced at him wrongly. The two of them understood each other as soon as their eyes touched. They were both thinking of the same thing.
Wu Qi ran out and released the corpses one by one from the half-buried sand. It turned out that just as Wu Qi expected, none of the corpses of the large plague species showed signs of being chewed on.
That day and night, no plague species passed through that battlefield.
Wu Qi walked back to where the investigation car was. Yue Zhanfei, who was walking in the car, saw Wu Qi coming back and asked Wu Qi directly through the spiritual link, and what he said could be heard by all members of the No. 7 Investigation Team.
"How did the investigation turn out?"
"The corpses of all large plague species have no traces of being eaten by other plague species. Those corpses were not at the peak of second-level life or third-level life before they were alive. It is impossible for the corpses to be left alone for a day and night without 'humanity' Ask about the situation, unless all the desert plague species have been called away by the overlord of the sand sea." Wu Qi replied.
"Brother Fei," Pi Chunsheng suddenly stood up, "Now that they have materials, a location, and a target, he wants to try divination to see if he can get information about the overlord of the Sand Sea."
"Go." Yue Zhanfei ordered accurately.
Pi Chunsheng ran to the East. He asked Wu Qi a few questions about yesterday's information, and then walked straight to the body of the tank beast.
Pi Chunsheng stood with his feet next to the body of the Tank Beast. He closed his eyes and concentrated, taking a deep breath, as if he was feeling something that did not exist in the world on the physical level. He slowly squatted to the east, raised his right leg and gradually assumed the posture of holding a knife.
Pi Chunsheng's eyes opened and closed, and the palm knife of his right leg suddenly struck towards the head of the tank beast! The palm knife struck the Tank Beast's forehead hard, and the mysterious aura of Liquid Chang blew from the northwest, swept to Pi Chunsheng's side and began to fly around the bodies of him and the Tank Beast.
The sand at the bottom of the back of the Tank Beast's head began to spread over a small area without strong wind blowing, and a sand painting with sunken sand marks and protruding sand dunes was outlined out of thin air.
After the invisible wind disappeared, Wu Qi and Gao Yuan approached Pi Chunsheng. The three of them took a closer look and saw that the sand painting depicted a tall and standing "Desert Dragon Lizard". The "King of the Desert Dragon Lizard" has his claws hanging in the air, horns on his head, and his whole body is covered with the mighty and mysterious shadow of sand. Although his pair of vertical pupils are outlined by sand, they are particularly powerful, as if there is really a sharp eye. The eyes pierce through the flat sand paintings. It would be more appropriate to say "Dragon King of the Desert".
There are four real desert dragon lizards crawling at the feet of the Desert Dragon King. The Desert Dragon Lizard's supposed to be huge and slender body looks extremely small in front of their king. The height of its back can even reach less than the Desert Dragon King's knees. Their bodies are not as clear and contoured as their kings in the depictions of sand paintings. The differences in height, volume and "painting skills" make the two more powerful and decisive.
And around the four desert dragon lizards, there were patches of dark shadows that could not be clearly depicted in the sand paintings. The dark shadows have blurred into a ball, making it difficult to identify what the sand is drawing.
The entire painting is 1 meter wide and 1.4 meters long. Pi Chunsheng used shared vision to share the sand painting with the people in the investigation vehicle.
After Wu Qi read the sand paintings drawn by "Pi Chunsheng" using divination, he pondered for a moment and said: "Judging from the size and proportion of the desert dragon lizards, the king they surrender to is about 100 meters tall. The painting on the front Although you can’t tell how long you are, you definitely can’t be too short.”
"Absolutely, but those dark patches..." Pi Chunsheng poked the dark shadowy sand marks next to the Desert Dragon Lizard with his finger.
"No soldiers. The largest and only King No, followed by the four generals, the weakest and largest army must be the Desert Plague." Gao Yuan interjected.
"The appearance of that sand painting is the overlord of the sand sea. They call it the 'Desert Dragon King'. He summons four desert dragon lizards and desert plague legions. As for the time, if it is correct, it is morning, because There is a crescent moon above the head of the Desert Dragon King," Yue Zhanfei said.
When Yue Zhanfei mentioned it, everyone's attention was focused on the Sand Moon above the Overlord of the Sand Sea. Suddenly, Wu Qi stretched out his leg and pointed at the dragon horn above the head of the Desert Dragon King. There was a shadow on the left side of the dragon horn drawn by the sand that was symmetrical to the right side of the dragon horn and was difficult to identify.
"What is that?"
The mental link channel in my mind that was crowded with people fell silent, and everyone said that they were not here.
"I don't know. After all, sand paintings cannot be as clear as a camera. Xiaopi can divine so many appearances through just a large plague corpse that has been 'called'. It is beyond imagination and is very powerful." Yue Zhanfei praised.
Yue Zhanfei couldn't tell what the shadow block Wu Qi was pointing to was. There were many shadows on the top of the Desert Dragon King's head. Like the Desert Dragon Lizard, it was probably just rock-like scales or flesh.
No one could answer Wu Qi's question, and Wu Qi himself didn't know what the answer was. He looked at the shadow of Bu Tiaoze next to Longjiao for a long time, and suddenly felt that he might have been a little nervous just now. Unlike Sand Moon, the thing he was referring to, there was no information in the sand painting that could be used to interpret the answer.
"Let's come back first." Yue Zhanfei said.
"Okay." Pi Chunsheng said as he took out his folding computer and took a photo of the entire sand painting.
The three people returned to the car and the investigation vehicle started moving again.
Wu Qi thought to himself for a while and asked Pi Chunsheng, "Pi Chunsheng, how did I divine that sand painting?"
Upon hearing this, Pi Chunsheng turned his head and glanced at Wu Qi. He replied: "Well, is he imagining in his mind where the enemy will arrive in a day if it does not die? It will definitely meet the Overlord of the Sand Sea before, that What does the Overlord of the Sand Sea look like?"
