The environment where this world tree is located is completely different from that of Xu Xin and his team.
"For the next section of the journey, we will need to go on our own."
Under the world tree which was close to the alien invaders' headquarters, Xu Xin and his group gathered together.
"The environment here... Although I had expected it, but..." Li Wenxi looked around, "This is really too bad."
All around the World Tree, in all directions, is a vast sea of sand that stretches as far as the eye can see.
The scorching sun shines directly on this sea of sand, making one's mouth dry just by looking at it.
In the distance, a gust of wind blew, and the yellow sand in the sky was blown up into the air, like a whole piece of yellow miasma, making people's legs and feet weak.
Thinking about having to cross this sea of sand, everyone broke into a sweat.
"Jin Yue and I are very familiar with this place. We walked in the desert for several hours before." Lou Feier looked at the vast sea of sand around her, then patted Jin Yue's arm, "Really?"
Jin Yue nodded: "We almost couldn't go back at that time. The environment in the desert is very harsh. We must be careful. We didn't encounter a sandstorm before, but here..."
Everyone looked into the distance.
The yellow miasma in the distance looks scary.
The desert environment is extremely harsh for human beings.
But for alien invaders who hate water, it would probably be like a fish in water.
This is the home ground of alien invaders, and they must be careful at all times.
"We are only 300 kilometers away from the alien invaders' headquarters. Our next move must be extremely secretive," Xu Xin said.
At such a close distance, they are probably under complete surveillance of the alien invaders, and if they are not careful, they will probably be discovered.
"Oh, what a pity. It would be great if we could continue to move forward from the underground world." Wang Lei spread his hands.
The headquarters of the alien invaders is a city formed by three world trees as its core.
And the three world trees are naturally connected to the underground.
According to common sense, their underground and above ground should also be connected.
But they could not travel underground.
Because of the ruggedness of the underground area, if they want to travel underground, they must use a flying vehicle or continue riding Huihui, otherwise they will be unable to move forward.
But if that happens, you will definitely be discovered.
Moreover, the underground terrain is complicated and they are not familiar with the place at all. They might be arrested before they find the place.
But it is different on earth.
"Isn't it better to start from the ground?" Wen Guixin looked towards the east of the World Tree. "The goal is clear. We can go straight ahead without wasting too much time on the road."
The world tree where Xu Xin and the others are now is close to the west coast. To the east of this world tree, that is, inland of the continent, there is a purple-black column of light rising into the sky.
That’s right, it’s comparable to the purple-black beam of light of the survivors’ teleportation array.
But the thickness of this beam of light was far greater than any beam of light Xu Xin had ever seen before.
The beam of light shot almost straight up into space.
The monster still in the bracelet had told them about this beam of light before.
This... is the space transmission device that these alien invaders use to transmit the "white crystal" materials from the earth to their home planet.
Through this transmission device, the white crystal on the earth will undergo several space jumps, through a complete inter-planetary transmission chain, and finally reach the mother planet.
Fortunately, due to the huge cost of this transmission chain, the alien invaders' home planet has not established a two-way connection, so the transmission is one-way, and can only be transmitted from the Earth to their home planet, but not from the home planet to the Earth.
This is actually one of the keys to Xu Xin and his team's plan.
Their goal is to destroy the "source of life" for alien invaders on Earth.
The source of life has been destroyed, and the mother planet can no longer transmit supplies to the Earth. Without the source of life, if they do not want to die, they can only return to their mother planet.
"Then... let's do as we said before?" Zhao Xiaochuan glanced at the desert, "Tsk... do you really want me to cross this desert..."
Xu Xin and his team already had ideas for the last 300 kilometers.
For the last 300 kilometers, they planned to take the most primitive approach.
Cycling.
Moreover, you can’t ride the very large pterosaur Huihui, but...
"Silver King, it's up to you." Xu Xin touched Silver King's head.
During this period, the Silver King has been living in the World Tree, which is much more comfortable than before.
However, it did not become lazy, but remained as strong and majestic as ever.
“Ah!” the Silver King yelled.
It has been a long time since it last went on a long-distance activity, and it is already a little impatient.
"Is Silver King much bigger than before?" Wen Guixin reached out and touched Silver King's head, a little excited, "Oh! This is the first time I touch it!"
The Silver King has been in the World Tree for several months and has been affected, causing it to be a whole circle larger than before.
When standing upright, its height is almost over two meters!
It is no exaggeration to say that it is a small giant.
"Then how about Sister Gui Xin, can you ride instead of me?" Zhao Xiaochuan took another look at the sandstorm in the distance, with a look of despair on his face.
"I would like to, but there is no way." Wen Guixin spread her hands, "The only one who can complete this mission is you."
Xu Xin and his team’s plan this time is very clear.
Zhao Xiaochuan rode the Silver King towards their final destination.
Because of Zhao Xiaochuan's ability to stealth, he and the Silver King he rode would not be noticed while traveling in this sea of sand.
In this way, they can get close to the headquarters of the alien invaders without being noticed.
Although the others all have the advanced version of the Stealth Hood, this cloak can also prevent them from being discovered while moving, but it can only allow them to move relatively slowly.
So this role belongs to Zhao Xiaochuan.
Wang Lei patted Zhao Xiaochuan on the shoulder: "Haha, it's up to you, Brother Chuan!"
"Don't call me brother, why don't you call me Brother Lei?" Zhao Xiaochuan looked "sad".
"No, no, no, let Brother Chuan do it. The more capable you are, the more work you should do!"
Zhao Xiaochuan rode his bike, and as for the others…
"Brother Xin, give me the bracelet and I will put you in it. Let's go now." Zhao Xiaochuan extended his hand to Xu Xin.
The others will be put into the bracelet and taken away by Zhao Xiaochuan.
However, just as Xu Xin was about to hand the bracelet to him, he suddenly retracted his hand.
"Wait a minute, I suddenly remembered that Silver King's back is so big, can he carry another person?" Zhao Xiaochuan immediately turned to look at Silver King, "Silver King, for you now, there should be no difference between carrying one person and carrying two people, right?"
“Ouch!”
The Silver King raised his head confidently.
"You mean, you can bring someone with you without being discovered?" Xu Xin asked.
"Yes, as long as we don't get off the Silver King's back." Zhao Xiaochuan nodded.
Xu Xin touched his chin: "Then you and I..."
"Let me do it."
At this time, Xu Ying, who had been staring at the purple-black light column in a daze without saying anything, turned around and said, "Let me do it. I'm more familiar with this place."
"Yingying, you need to use your ability at the most critical moment." Xu Xin frowned slightly.
Xu Ying's condition has been very unstable recently, and Xu Xin is very worried about her.
But her abilities are necessary for them, so if it wasn't the most critical moment, Xu Xin didn't want her to take action.
"Now is a critical moment." Xu Ying looked at him and said, "We are very close to the base of the alien invaders. The possibility of us being exposed will be greatly increased. If I am outside, even if we are accidentally discovered, we can be transferred immediately."
Zhao Xiaochuan nodded in agreement when he heard this: "Yes, that's right! With Yingying with me, I don't have to worry so much!"
Xu Xin sighed.
What Xu Ying said was right, but he was really worried about Xu Ying's current mental state.
but…
Having her come is indeed the best choice.
Xu Xin was a little worried about leaving Zhao Xiaochuan alone outside.
"… It shouldn't be a problem to bring three people, right?" Xu Xin asked Zhao Xiaochuan.
"Three people? Ah, no problem!" Zhao Xiaochuan nodded, "Just don't get off the Silver King."
"Then I'll come too." Xu Xin said.
He was indeed a little worried.
"Hey, there are still three people left? Why not let me do it!" Wen Guixin said, "I haven't ridden the Silver King yet."
"Don't!" Zhao Xiaochuan waved his hands. "I'm afraid you'll see something and get excited and lose control of your abilities!"
"I... Well, it's possible." Wen Guixin said awkwardly, "Then forget it."
"Then why don't I do it?" Jin Yue said at this time, "I should be stronger in terms of physical ability."
"Me too!" Lou Fei'er said, "Xu Xin, you should go and have a rest. You were the one who led us all the way just now."
"No need." Xu Xin glanced at Xu Ying who remained silent, "Let me do it. My map ability can be more effective than yours in this situation."
"This... okay..."
"Ah... I knew it..." Li Wenxi sighed, "Aren't you tired?"
"Don't worry. I'm fine." Xu Xin rubbed her head. "When we are almost there or when we need you, we will release you. Remember, everyone must put on the invisible cloak in advance." Xu Xin looked at the others and said.
"Don't worry, we understand this very well." Wen Guixin waved her hand, "Okay, it's time to leave. Ji Chaoyang is still fighting, so we have to hurry."
"Well, you must be careful, Yingying, you too." Li Wenxi turned to look at Xu Ying who was still looking at the purple-black beam of light.
“Hmm… ? Ah! Okay!” Xu Ying nodded.
"What about me? What about me?" Zhao Xiaochuan pointed at himself, "Sister Wen Xi, what about me? Can't you let me pay attention to safety as well?"
“Ah, you should be careful too, or they will find you.” Li Wenxi said with a smile.
"I..." Zhao Xiaochuan was speechless.
"Just kidding. Oh, and there's Coco!" Li Wenxi handed Coco, who was beginning to feel sleepy again, to Xu Xin. "Take Coco with you. Maybe its ability can help you avoid risks."
"Hmm..." Keke opened her eyes in Xu Xin's arms, "Hmm?"
"Okay."
After putting the others into the bracelet again, Xu Xin patted the Silver King.
The Silver King understood and crouched down.
Given its current size, if it doesn't bend down, it would be difficult for Xu Xin and the others to get on top of it.
The current Silver King is no longer in a size that one could just turn over and step over.
"Brother Xin, you two should also put on the invisible cloak first." Zhao Xiaochuan reminded, "You can't put it on when you get close, right? It can also prevent accidents."
"really."
After Xu Xin and Xu Ying put on their cloaks, the three of them immediately jumped onto the wolves.
Zhao Xiaochuan sat in the front, Xu Xin sat in the back, and Xu Ying sat in the middle. Keke had already climbed onto Xu Ying's back, looking curiously at the purple-black light column in the distance.
"Let's go, Silver King."
“Ouch—”
The Silver King howled like a wolf, and finally his entire wolf body suddenly jumped out.
"So fast!" Xu Ying, who had been silent all this time, exclaimed.
Xu Ying was not familiar with the Silver King, because when she officially joined Xu Xin and the others, the World Tree had already matured, and the Silver King had never had a chance to show himself since then.
Her only impression of the Silver King was that her brother once used this wolf as a mount.
But I didn’t expect…
"How can a wolf be so fast!" Xu Ying said in surprise with eyes wide open.
Even the depressed mood was aroused again.
Xu Xin was also a little dumbfounded.
This speed... was even beyond his imagination!
Faster and faster, faster and faster!
In the end, the Silver King maintained a speed of over two hundred kilometers per hour!
"I... poof!"
Just as Xu Xin was about to speak, the wind and sand blew into his mouth.
At this speed, the blown sand hitting his face felt like a knife cutting him!
He immediately took out the helmet from his armor and put it on as a motorcycle helmet, and also brought one for Xu Ying.
And Coco had already crawled into Xu Xin's arms,
At this time, Zhao Xiaochuan also put on a helmet and started speaking as soon as he put it on.
"It feels so good! Silver King is so fast! Wuhu!"
He shouted excitedly, and then said: "Brother Xin, at this speed, we can finish the task in about an hour...hiss!"
Before he could finish his words, he took a deep breath.
About three kilometers ahead of the people, a cloud of yellow sand suddenly rolled up!
The yellow sand rolled up so quickly that it seemed to reach the sky in just a few seconds!
A big sandstorm is coming!
The distance of three kilometers can be reached in tens of seconds with Silver King’s current speed!
It’s so close!
"What should we do? Should we take a detour?" Zhao Xiaochuan asked hurriedly.
"There's no way around it!"
Xu Ying shouted amid the whistling of the wind in her ears.
The sandstorm spread very quickly. In just a few seconds, an extremely tall sandstorm wall that stretched for tens of kilometers appeared in front of them, blocking Xu Xin and his group's view.
It is unrealistic to take a detour. Who knows how far the sandstorm will spread
But you can’t stop!
"Silver King, are you okay?" Xu Xin asked loudly to the Silver King who was still rushing towards the sandstorm.
“Ouch!”
Silver King demonstrated its ideas through actions.
It rushed towards the yellow sand in front of it without fear!
“Oh oh…!” Coco curled up into a ball in Xu Xin’s arms.
Looking at the sandstorm getting closer and closer, Xu Xin's expression in his helmet also changed.
"Oh my God! Are we really going to rush in? Silver King, are you serious?!" Zhao Xiaochuan, who was the person sitting in the front facing the sandstorm, screamed in fear!
"Is it so exciting..." Xu Ying murmured to herself with a little excitement.
“Ouch—”
A wolf, three people and a red panda, plunged directly into the sandstorm.
…
On this world tree growing in the desert, Lao Yang looked out from the window of the top room and watched them disappear in the sandstorm.
“I wish you success.”
