Chapter 457: Natural disaster (second update)

Views:

The extreme western region of the continent where the Zhanmei World Empire is located is covered by a large expanse of desert. Not only is it sparsely populated, but the number of dangerous species that can survive is at least 30% less than in other regions.

In the more remote west is the endless desert. The foreign nations living on this land have given birth to countless people who want to conquer the desert for thousands of years, but without exception, no one has been able to successfully do this.

Therefore, on the map of the empire, this endless desert became the western end of the world. The foreign ethnic groups in the West have also been living outside this desert for generations. The wind and sand have not only created their extreme vitality but also given them a unique way of life. And on this day, this small town near the endless desert welcomes Two unusual guests arrived.

"It's really hot here, A-Yuan. Do we really want to keep moving forward?" Esdeath has already changed into local clothes. Although they don't look like much, they can reduce the temperature to the greatest extent. The effect of heat on Esdeath.

"Of course I do. This is the most credible information we have. No matter what, we have to give it a try."

Looking at the desert filled with yellow sand, Le Yuan couldn't help but feel endless pride in his heart, wanting to conquer it. The journey to collect the Teigu has entered its second month. During this period, they continued to move westward, and finally arrived near the desert in the far west. It was in this place that even the empire could not reach that they heard a rumor that only the locals knew.

It is rumored that most of the people who wanted to explore the end of this desert and conquer it throughout the ages died in this boundless desert, but there were always some lucky people who escaped from it alive.

And the most important thing is that these people who have gone deep into the desert have all encountered a very terrifying and dangerous species without exception. It has titles such as "Desert Wind God", "Desert God of Death", "Desert Dragon", etc., but it is certain that this dangerous species is the biggest obstacle to the advancement of exploration.

"So, do you think that the so-called desert god of death is the legendary super dangerous species we have been looking for? Could it be that the locals exaggerated the strength of that dangerous species? In any case, these are just those who failed to escape. Is this the author’s one-sided statement?”

Esdeath ate the local specialty fruit and looked at Le Yuandao with a certain look on his face with some suspicion.

"I saw the items left behind by the desert god of death. An explorer once brought back the shell of that dangerous species. I checked it and found that it was indeed not an ordinary super dangerous species."

Le Yuan's identification skills were not in vain. He could clearly see the shed shell, which was marked with the words "Legendary Super Dangerous Species".

Le Yuan and Esdeath purchased all the supplies before entering the desert, and then they broke into the desert with confidence.

Traveling in the desert is very dangerous. Scorching sun, storms, quicksand, dangerous species and even getting lost can kill you. What's more important is that Le Yuan now has to take Esdeath, who is in poor condition, with him. If it weren't for Le Yuan's extraordinary powers, he would have captured a desert poisonous horned ant, a local resident, as a mount shortly after entering the desert. Carrying the two of them forward, the speed would probably drop to an unsightly level.

Le Yuan, who was looking at the map he bought with a lot of money, was suddenly startled by a pair of cold hands. Esdeath took the map from Le Yuan's hand, then looked at it again and again feebly, and finally concluded: "It's useless. This map was the last person to see the desert god of death 30 years ago. It’s left behind, but is it still useful after so many years?”

Le Yuan naturally knew that the reliability of the information this map could bring him was no longer as reliable as before, but he still gave Le Yuan a lot of hints. People who have seen the God of Death in the Desert, without exception, only saw the God of Death when they were extremely deep into the desert, so Le Yuan only needs to keep moving towards the west and one day he will encounter it.

With this idea in mind, Le Yuan and Esdeath's desert adventure began. After going through a series of difficulties on the first day, the quicksand hell on the second day, the attack of sand beasts on the third day, the migration of desert moths on the fourth day... and so on, on the tenth day, Le Yuan and Esde... Si came to an incredible desert oasis.

In the depths of the endless desert, they will see an oasis about the size of a town of a hundred people. Not only does it have extremely clear spring water, but it also has delicious fruits. It is simply a paradise in this endless desert.

After experiencing at least ten days of sandstorms, evil beast attacks, and extreme terrain, most people would rush to this paradise regardless of anything and enjoy it to the fullest. However, both Le Yuan and Le Yuan who were in poor condition saw the oasis. Shi Zhi frowned.

"There's something wrong here..."

Le Yuan said this after observing the oasis that suddenly appeared in his field of vision, and habitually conducted a blanket search for this oasis.

"There is indeed a problem, and it's a big one."

Although Esdeath's mental state has deteriorated a lot, her basic eyesight and alertness have not deteriorated at all. As the strongest in the empire, all her instincts remind her that there is an unexpected prey here.

"It's too quiet here."

Le Yuan looked at this oasis and couldn't help but said that wind and sand in the desert are not uncommon, but when the two of them came within 50 meters of the oasis, all the sand and wind stopped.

In the oasis, although there are lakes with plenty of water, there is not a single animal living here. It would be unreasonable to say that ordinary animals cannot survive in this polar region, but there is not even a trace of the activities of dangerous species. Danger Plants are also living things, and they still need to be hydrated. It is impossible not to occupy such a good area.

As a hunting people, Esdeath knew the habits of dangerous species very well. There was only one possibility that such an empty oasis would appear.

"There is a very high-level dangerous species here. The most superior being regards this oasis as its territory. No desert creature has entered this oasis to live. It seems that we have come to the right place!"

Esdeath looked at this oasis with bright eyes. Although her combat effectiveness was greatly reduced, this did not hinder her enthusiasm for hunting dangerous species. And wasn't there Le Yuan, a prospective "husband" who wanted to do it

Let Esdeath stay outside the oasis with peace of mind, and Le Yuan entered this terrifyingly quiet oasis alone. Although the plants in the oasis are now lush and full of vitality, the silent oasis still makes people feel scalp numb under the sun.

There was nothing strange about Le Yuan along the way, as if this place was an ordinary oasis. Maintaining such a calm situation, Le Yuan came to the blue lake and threw a small stone from the ground to the lake, completely breaking the calmness of the water mirror.

As ripples appeared on the lake, a gust of wind suddenly appeared in the oasis, and then the ripples on the lake never stopped. An elliptical sphere made of hard shells rose from the sand next to the oasis. Then it exploded suddenly.

A four-winged dragon-headed butterfly about 50 meters long and with a wingspan of 70 meters emerged from the cocoon-like carapace.

"This is the Desert God of Death? It looks really awkward, but it is indeed a legendary super dangerous species." Le Yuan took the lead in confirming the identity of the giant beast in front of him, and it was indeed the target that Le Yuan needed to hunt with his bare hands.

At this moment, the desert god of death, which was floating quietly in mid-air, suddenly flapped its huge wings, and waves of phosphorus-like things suddenly fell from its wings.

"wind!"

A sealing protective circle composed entirely of wind suddenly surged around Le Yuan, leaving no chance for the phosphorus powder to touch his body. Esdeath, who was outside the oasis, was not immune. The phosphorus powder of the desert god of death spread to Esdeath with the waving of its wings.

Esdeath, who was sitting on the desert poisonous horned ant, suddenly waved his arm, and four triangular ice crystal walls were propped up around him, wrapping Esdeath and the desert poisonous horned ant like an Egyptian pyramid. Although his mental state is not good, if he underestimates Esdeath because of this, he will die miserably.

After the endless phosphorus powder fell on the surrounding plants, Li Ke took effect, causing the plants to grow rapidly and contrary to common sense, as if they were on hormones.

"This is a fatal thing. This thing can't be all catalysts. People or other creatures are probably the same as being hit with stimulants. They will either die of heart failure, or they will be unable to resist after venting crazily."

Le Yuan thankfully raised his head and looked at the desert god of death who had stopped releasing phosphorus powder. He saw its huge dragon head sweeping across the oasis. It immediately focused on Le Yuan in the oasis, and then opened its mouth with a completely transparent mouth. The high-pressure air cannon condensed.

If Le Yuan himself was not very familiar with the power of wind, he might not have noticed the attack until it hit him. Things suddenly turned into a whack-a-mole situation. The condescending desert God of Death kept firing air from his mouth. Although each shot did not hit Le Yuan, the force of it hit the ground and exploded a ball one meter in diameter and half a meter deep. Potholes come.

"Damn, isn't it the Rasengan with its compressed air flow and brutal destructive power? And it's also an enhanced version that can become invisible remotely! It's so brutal!"

Le Yuan couldn't help but think when he saw the Desert Death God's attack. However, even though he kept yelling, the Desert Death God's attack pattern inspired Le Yuan a lot. Who knows that he is also a playboy.
