Staying with these people and chatting from time to time, Gray understood from these people's words that these nobles were not going for the treasures in the King's Cemetery, but just to pay homage to the King's Cemetery.
The other party pulled Gray because he felt that the more people there were, the safer he would be. Of course, Gray's aristocratic attire was also a reason.
If Gray was wearing mercenary armor, they would never invite Gray. Nobles always like to get close to nobles, and the same is true for mercenaries.
Soon after, a group of more than a dozen people rode camel beasts, a domesticated animal suitable for long journeys in the desert, and entered the Golden Desert, heading towards the location of the King's Cemetery marked on the map.
The Golden Desert is a desert that is rumored to be full of gold. Here, legends of getting rich overnight abound, and it attracts a lot of mercenaries every year.
However, when Gray entered the Golden Desert, what he saw was not large pieces of gold and stone, but piles of bones.
There are obvious wounds from sharp blades on some of the bones. They were obviously killed, but I don't know whether it was because of the uneven distribution of gold or because they were attacked by sand pirates.
There are also some people who have no obvious wounds on their bodies. If nothing else, they should have died of thirst.
Rune space bags, such a thing, are only owned by the Marquis family. Ordinary people or even ordinary families do not have such a thing.
There are even some people with very weird wounds, as if they were eaten by animals. This is because they encountered wild beasts or blood beasts.
Although the Golden Desert is completely desert terrain, it is not without animals and blood beasts.
During the day, they hide under the endless yellow sand to avoid the scorching heat. At night, they crawl out from under the yellow sand, looking for food, and stage a scene of hunting and being hunted.
"How powerful are you talking about king-level experts? I heard that one blow can destroy mountains. Do you think this is true?"
The young man with thick eyebrows asked curiously.
"It shouldn't be possible. A single blow can shatter a mountain. How powerful is this?"
There are noble children who do not believe in Tao.
"But that's what many books say."
A noble girl said.
"Those books are just the imagination of some bards and cannot be taken seriously."
Some nobles retorted.
"Brother, what do you think?"
The young man with thick eyebrows asked Gray.
Gray didn't look aloof, but said.
"If the mountain is not too big, just a few hundred meters, it should be no problem to destroy it with one blow."
"you sure?"
Several nobles looked at Gray suspiciously.
"I happened to be in the Mercenary City during the battle between the Mercenary King and the Killer King."
Gray explained.
"What, you happened to be there when the Mercenary King fought with the Killer King?"
The faces of several nobles were full of envy. A year ago, they knew the news that the King of Killers attacked the Mercenary City and fought with the King of Mercenaries in the Mercenary City.
After many people found out, they regretted that they were not in the mercenary city at that time. They regretted that they missed this grand scene that was difficult to encounter even if it took decades. They did not expect that Gray was actually there at that time.
"Brother, tell me quickly..."
Several aristocratic young men and girls clamored for Gray to tell what he saw at that time. Gray did not refuse and told what he saw in detail, which immediately attracted the admiration and fascination of several noble children.
Chatting with a few nobles while rushing to the King's Cemetery made the journey a little less boring. Two days passed quickly and they had reached the depths of the Golden Desert.
The sun was shining high in the sky, casting a fiery ray of light, like balls of flames, making people's bodies scalding hot, as if they were being roasted on an iron plate.
The children of the nobles were usually pampered and pampered, but they had never experienced such suffering, and they suddenly complained in agony.
However, what surprised Gray was that none of the nobles proposed to return the same way. Even the two noble girls gritted their teeth and persisted.
Leaving aside the aspect of strength, the aspect of perseverance made Gray look a little different. He could see that the education received by these noble children was by no means endless arrogance.
"Uh, brother, why are you so cool?"
After a few days of getting along with each other, several aristocratic children noticed that Gray had extraordinary knowledge, so they always liked to talk to Gray. The young man with thick eyebrows came close to him on a pack horse and suddenly screamed strangely.
"I have an ice magic weapon in my hand."
Gray "explained" with a smile.
Naturally, he does not have ice magic weapons, but after reaching the barbarian level, his control over the blood beast's abilities has been greatly improved.
Not only can it separate the ice and wind abilities, but it can also control the abilities in a fine way, so it can directly control the ice ability, giving itself a faint chill to resist the scorching heat outside.
"Brother, why didn't you tell me earlier if there was such a good thing..."
"Yes, brother, why didn't you tell me earlier?"
Several aristocratic young men and girls were not polite to Gray. After spending a few days together, they had become quite familiar with Gray. They all drove their pack horses to Gray to get some cool air.
Gray didn't refuse, and even let the cold air spread slightly, helping several people resist the heat.
With his current strength as a brutal blood warrior, the consumption of this little blood power is naturally not a problem.
The sun was shining brightly outside, and Gray and the others felt comfortable all over. Waves of coolness enveloped them, helping them resist the heat.
In the end, the guards brought by several nobles and the mercenaries hired as guides also came over.
Among them, Gray was keenly aware that among the guards brought by several nobles, an old man in his fifties looked at him with caution. He must have sensed the unusual source of the cold air.
Gray didn't care, after all, he never thought about hiding his strength in front of these people.
However, this old man aroused some interest in Gray. The old man was wearing a gray battle uniform, with a spear on his back. He had a faint aura of killing that had been on the battlefield for a long time, and his strength should not be too weak.
In the next few days, Gray and the others walked on the desert where it was almost difficult to tell the direction. The terrain in the desert was indeed easy to change. Gray compared it with the map and found that many of the terrain had changed.
At this time, the experienced mercenaries hired by these noble children came into play. They identified the direction through the desert plants they could occasionally see and guided the correct direction.
Another day passed, and they were not far from the King's Cemetery. They were still three or four days away at most, and at this time they were already extremely deep into the Golden Desert.
call out!
Suddenly, the sand beneath their feet splashed with gravel, and two huge black pincers suddenly stretched out, revealing their black, carapace-covered heads, and clamped down on the camel that one of the noble girls was riding.
Its pliers were pitch black and looked extremely sharp. There was no doubt that this was a blood beast.
The noble girl riding on the pack horse changed her color and drove the camel to avoid it, but the black blood beast appeared too suddenly and it seemed impossible to escape.
"Miss, be careful!"
Gray was immediately ready to take action, but at this moment, Gray noticed that the old man in combat uniform quickly took off the spear from his waist and suddenly thrust out a spear.
puff!
The spear thrown by the old man was extremely sharp and easily penetrated the carapace-covered black blood beast's head, and a ball of white substance immediately seeped out.
The head was pierced, and the two large pincers stretched out by the black blood beast were unable to slide down. The pack horse and the noble girl on the pack horse narrowly escaped the attack of the blood beast.
"It was a close call, but fortunately Grandpa Andrew took action in time!"
The noble girl was frightened, and the other nobles were also surprised. They did not expect to be attacked by the blood beast.
Although I had heard that there were blood beasts in the Golden Desert, they rarely appeared during the day, so I didn't expect that they would encounter them.
"It should be a mad warrior!"
After taking a look at the black blood beast, Gray judged in his mind.
The strength of this black blood beast is not too strong, it should only be a ferocious blood beast. However, the old man can kill it with one blow, and its strength is naturally far superior to this black blood beast, so Gray estimates that this man should Has the strength of a mad blood warrior.
In the next two days, Gray and the others were attacked by blood beasts one after another. In one of them, they were attacked by two blood beasts at the same time. These were two rare blood beasts of male and female living together.
Attacking at the same time, even with the strength of the old mad blood warrior, it would be difficult to kill both of them at the same time.
Gray also took action to prevent them from hurting anyone.
This group of noble children finally realized the danger of the Golden Desert.
At the same time, he was also shocked by Gray's strength. He didn't expect that Gray, like the old man, could also kill a ferocious blood beast with one blow.
Everyone couldn't help but feel lucky that they had invited Gray into the team. Otherwise, some of them might have been injured or even killed by this time.
Two days later, they finally arrived at the King's Cemetery.
I saw a low land surrounded by numerous sand peaks, filled with tents one after another, which were the temporary residences of various forces who rushed here.
The tent was in the shape of a ring, vaguely surrounding the center of this low place. In that direction, you could vaguely see a group of buildings on the ground, which should be the location of the king's cemetery.
"Why, why don't you let us get closer?"
However, when Gray and these nobles wanted to get close to the cemetery and take a closer look, they were stopped.
More than a dozen people wearing uniform-colored battle uniforms and exuding a strong murderous aura blocked the way.
"The King's Cemetery is not yours, why don't you let us get close?"
A noble girl said angrily.
Along the way, they encountered danger several times, just to get a glimpse of the King's Cemetery. Unexpectedly, they were already close, but they were arbitrarily stopped by these people and refused to watch, which made her extremely angry.
"By my Warren family!"
A young aristocratic man walked up with his hands behind his back, followed by several guards, his face full of defiance.
