Chapter 32: Fish in the Sand

It has been the third day since the tomb of the gods. After Shur experienced the illusion, he never encountered any visions in the tomb. It seemed that the other party invited them into the tomb just to show this history to everyone.

Although it was not certain in the end that which of the four gods was summoned, everyone guessed that it should be the God of Water, or the God of Oasis, whose body is no longer in the tomb.

After all, the bodies of the other three gods are still in the tomb, and they are probably dead. Only the missing God of Water can be sure that she still has consciousness. She left a little power in the tomb so that Shur can see everything in the past and can fully explain it.

Why does the gods ask everyone to see these things? No one can understand them? Is it to tell you something in a vague way? Or is it just that the history of the lizard man is completely forgotten with the destruction of the world?

As for the sounds that Shuer heard before he escaped from the illusion, and the specific content about the Great Rift, he had not told anyone yet. Now should not be the time.

As it has been delayed a lot of time, as soon as you leave the tomb, the Zhuying team began to quickly rush toward the established goal, which is the nearest departure point. This time, Zhuying is full of evil, the environment is weird, the situation is weird, the mission is weird, and it is abnormal no matter how you look at it. Even if you can leave the world one day earlier, it would be a good thing. If you hadn't encountered a fatal danger yet and everyone still had a glimmer of hope, I'm afraid that once you find the departure point, Shuer ordered to leave directly. As for the mission, gods, and the secrets behind the big rift that destroyed the world, go aside.

Therefore, the Shadow-Zhuying Team restored its life of hiding out at night. Every day, the sandstorm at sunset passed. Before the sandstorm at sunrise came, it dug a cellar and drilled in, and traveled at least 100 kilometers overnight.

The only thing that makes people feel troubled is the undead.

Shur has seen it in the illusion. The undead are always active at night. If you choose to travel at night, even if you are lucky or not hitting them head-on, you will always encounter them if you have too many times. The undead don’t care what their purpose is. Once they meet, they will definitely fight until one side falls completely.

Today is another day of bad luck, and this is the second battle.

We encountered the undead twice in a row. Fortunately, the undead were wandering around. The sound of bone friction was very obvious in the quiet night. Suff was caught by the distance. Everyone simply chose to take the initiative to take the lead and launched a sudden attack on the undead, easily winning.

However, the second scene was not so lucky. The undead did not move at all, but remained motionless under the sand, not knowing whether they were sleeping or dazed.

Due to the blocking effect of black sand on energy, the shadow-trapping person hid in the cellar and would not be sensed by the undead outside. Similarly, the undead is hidden underground and would not be sensed by the shadow-trapping person on the surface. Even the undead mage like Militi, who is extremely sensitive to dark energy, cannot sense the undead below through the black sand. It was not until the undead was awakened by the vibration of the ground and crawled out of the soil that she realized the existence of dark energy.

Fortunately, when he was in a projection in another world, as long as he had not confirmed the absolutely safe and closed environment, Shuer would never let the team take precautions. Therefore, the moment before the undead appeared, Makajren, who noticed the vibration of the ground, sent a warning signal.

Not a second passed, the shadow-seekers were ready to fight, and the undead were hit head-on as soon as they appeared.

"Damn it, these ghosts are really troublesome." Withdrawing the thrown axe, Mobak tried hard to simmer in his hand. The temperature in the desert was extremely low at night. He held a cold metal weapon. Even the physical fitness of the warriors would feel cold. "I have never hated the undead as I am today. After I go home, I will use this reward to establish a undead crusade association. As long as I see the moving bones, I will directly kill them with an axe."

"The undead is dead, idiot." How can you be considered a good brother without attacking each other? The halfling picked up a lizard head and threw it over, "Do your job well, and then be so noisy, be careful to wake up more undeads."

"Idiots all over the body, do you know what the hell can wake up with sound? Do you think..."

"Mia, help."

"silence."

The two idiots shut their mouths decisively, but...

"Huh?" Marca Jaylen discovered the problem a few seconds later, "It seems that there is no magic effect."

"Just achieve the goal." Mia glared at the two noisy guys coldly, "Or, do you miss the real silence?"

"Okay, stop making trouble, omit the cleaning of the battlefield and transfer immediately."

Shuer has summarized this past few days. The undead can fly in sandstorms, but except for some special types, most of the flight speeds are slower than sandstorms, and they will be thrown away after a while. After landing, the undead will then wander aimlessly all night until the next sandstorm arrives, so...

"Try to stay in the same position for too long and quickly leave the battlefield. Kelly, physical strength is restored, Mia, Militi, don't be stingy with potions now and stay in the best condition at any time."

Shuer's heart was bleeding. When he thought of this from his mouth, Shuer felt the urge to hold his head and cry. Unfortunately, he still had to use what he should use.

"Saf, location."

"It will arrive soon, at most five kilometers. Keep the current speed and you can reach it within ten minutes."

"Are you sure?"

"Huh?" Suff was stunned. Shure had never believed her judgment unconditionally, and this was the first time she asked her this.

"It's nothing, just say it casually." Shur waved his hand, as if he was really just a heartless word, but if he looked at it from the front, he would find that his expression was not relaxed.

"Kelly, follow closely. Your position is half a meter behind, and the formation will be affected." In the past few days, Shuer is still very satisfied with the female priest, the client. Although it is very hard to turn day and night, she has never complained and has never caused trouble for everyone. In addition to pity, everyone's attitude towards her has also improved a lot.

"Moriya, the situation ahead."

“Visually safe.”

"Mobak, physical condition."

"Don't worry, captain, Old Mobak is the best, when..."

"Shut up, Marca Jaylen, twenty-three degrees left, five hundred meters, behind the dune to investigate."

"Understand, I..." The half-hearted pupils suddenly contracted, and a sharp voice spread throughout the team, "Enemy attack!"

This time, the alarm appeared too late, because he felt the extremely faint vibration of the ground until the last moment.

It was really the last moment. He didn't even finish a word. At Kelly's feet, the ground made of black sand was suddenly broken open. A black shadow and his warning appeared at the same time, causing a cracked sound to break through the air. From bottom to top, it stabbed towards the female priest's lower abdomen like lightning.

Experience determines everything. Kelly didn't have time to avoid it and didn't even react at all. The time was too short. She didn't even know that the person being attacked was herself. The black shadow was only a few centimeters away from her, and her eyes began to move downwards.

Fortunately, Moria was right in front of her, and Xiaolu adopted the most personal and rough rescue method - she slapped her and kicked her away. With a sting, Kelly's priest robe was torn apart, but fortunately she was not injured.

The injured was Moria. While the black shadow tore Kelly's clothes, it also slashed Moria's calves. The flesh of the Golden-level Warrior was easily broken, and blood surged out of the wound.

"Oh, my glasses." Savre exclaimed briefly while the deer was injured. Her glasses were snatched away by a hand, which was Shuer's hand, but she knew that Shuer had only one reason to do so, "Who was injured?"

Although I couldn't see anything clearly and was still asking questions, the female swordsman's great sword had been raised, and all her attention was focused on her ears, looking for any faint abnormal sound.

"It's Xiaode, it's okay."

The moment before Moria was injured, Shur had predicted that she would be cut and it was too late to help. Shur could only choose to grab Suff's glasses to prevent her from becoming crazy because of the blood. After all, what she needs now is a calm Suff.

While putting away her glasses, Shuer caught Kelly who was kicked at her and threw her hand back on Moria's back. This was the safest place for Kelly. As for the minor injuries Moria suffered, it would not affect her combat effectiveness.

"It has crawled back to the sand, pay attention to the feet." It is not a matter of sudden attack, but now is not the time to complain and blame. Shuer left his original position as soon as possible and calmly controlled the situation. "Don't just stare at one place, there is probably more than one enemy."

"Boss, what is it?" The few people in front of them were unable to see the attacker. Even Macajren, who first sensed the vibration, immediately alerted and turned around, only saw a shadow, which showed how amazing the other party's speed was.

"The head is a human, the attacker is the undead." The more dangerous it is, the more it needs to ease the tension to avoid making mistakes in the busy situation. Shuer suddenly swung his hammer and hit the sand with one hammer. "It's a fish in the sand, dead."

The fish in the sand refer to the strange creatures that everyone saw in the illusion before, and were regarded as mounts by lizardmen. They can treat the desert as an ocean and swim freely in it. Unexpectedly, even if they become undead after death, their ability will still be retained. The swimming is even more flexible than when they are alive, so flexible that they will not even emit a faint vibration.

"Keep the overall movement of the formation, with Militi as the basis, keep changing the position, and don't let them pierce the soles of the feet directly."

"Watch each other and help each other in time, especially the two mages."

"Sensing vibrations yourself. If you can't sense, use your eyes to see them. If you can't see clearly, listen. Don't rely on Marcajren, it's too late to warn."

"Attention, here we go."
