"It's a dry highland~~~" I stepped on a high rock and looked around, sighing involuntarily.

The criss-crossing grand canyons are displayed on this hot land like tortoise patterns. If the gravel wasteland is the buffer zone of the three major areas of Lugaoyin Desert, Misty Forest and Twin Seas, then this is Lugaoyin.

The gate of the desert. Only when you step here can you truly step into the desert.

The undulating grand canyons in front of us forcefully raise the altitude of this land, making it closer to the flaming red sun above our heads, making it even hotter. This is where the name dry highland comes from.

Before the invasion of hell, like the first and second worlds, there was also a highland city. Due to the dangerous terrain of the canyon area, it was a place for military strategists. Unfortunately, in the face of the momentum of the hell army coming like a tide, coupled with the

There are countless strong men, and the advantage of the terrain has become a joke. Seeing that the situation is not good, the Western Kingdom abandoned the other four cities early and concentrated its troops to protect Lu Gaoyin City.

The city of Goin cannot be saved.

If I were not in a hurry, I would have a little leisure time and go over to take a look at the ruins of the Highland City. There are probably demon king-level monsters and strong men still there, and I just happen to have itchy hands recently. In the realm of dreams

I've been tortured a lot by the demon king's flesh-and-blood resurrectors, and I want to find someone to vent my sullenness on. The most important thing is to prove that I'm not a pussy, huh.

I took a look at the map and saw that the ruins of the Highland City were marked on it, but there was a bright red triangle surrounding it, which proved my guess just now. This ruins must have become a paradise for powerful monsters. The most important thing is

What's more, the place where this ruins is located seriously conflicts with our route to the distant oasis. If we want to go sightseeing there, the distance will be at least twice as long. Thinking of this, I can only give up in tears.

"Aww. Aww~~~" The five Xiaoxues were like beasts out of a cage. They didn't care about the heat of the desert. After I summoned them, they ran around and disappeared. In the blink of an eye, they disappeared and came back after a while.

There were bloodstains on it, which made me, the master, very envious. Experience, I also want experience. I want to upgrade to level 70, I want to upgrade to level 80!

But now, I can only watch Xiaoxue and the others harvest. When other people's pets kill enemies, the owner can get all the experience. But my Xiaoxue is different from the ghost wolves. Because of their skill mutation, they kill monsters and absorb all the experience.

Not a single bit was left for me as the owner. My attempt to gain pet experience failed, which devastated me.

Nowadays, the combined combat power of the five ghost wolves is enough to rival a strong man at the top of the field. Coupled with the natural hunting ability, under the command of the boss Xiaoxue, they are like a well-trained army, and their cooperation is not inferior to a

The adventure team, which has been trained for decades, knows clearly what monsters to deal with and what tactics to use. Their IQ is simply astonishing for my master.

With such strength, I have no objection to them leaving me to hunt alone. What makes me most depressed is not that I can’t get experience, but that I can’t pick up the equipment and items dropped by them when they kill the monsters. Thinking of this makes me feel sad.

To make my heart hurt, I originally wanted to summon the lazy crow and let it be a scavenger to pick up the things dropped by Xiaoxue and the others. But this guy immediately gave up when he saw a group of black vulture demons flying by in the sky.

He grabbed my head with his two paws, raised his neck, and screamed, pretending to be a rooster.

There is no way, I can't act too philistine in front of Caroline and Ava'er, I have to have a little bit... a little bit of the image of His Royal Highness, a little bit of the nobility of the Holy Moon Wise Wolf, right? So even in my heart

Even though the blood was dripping, I still smiled, caressing Lazy Crow's chicken head and smiled without saying a word, thinking that I could wait until I got back to make a pot of nutritious black-bone chicken soup, I had to let it make its final contribution.

With Xiaoxue and the others clearing the way, and the fact that we were walking on a safe road, the monsters were not very strong and basically couldn't survive the three to five minutes of bloody hunting by the five ghost wolves, the journey became easier. Basically, Kaluge even released a trace

The task of driving away enemies with momentum is eliminated.

If nothing unexpected happens, for example, a certain demon boss gets excited and plans to go to a distant place to go to the toilet, and take a look at the beautiful scenery of the desert, and so on, balabala, then the rest of the journey will be very smooth.

If everything goes smoothly, it only takes about two days to reach the remote oasis and find the maggot nest.

I glanced at the map again, and my eyes fell on the area of ​​the distant oasis. As expected, the marked maggot nests were also marked with a bright red warning triangle. It seemed that in order to highlight the status of the Sandworm Queen as the lord demon king, this bright red warning triangle

There are three layers painted inside and outside. It is estimated that even a blind person can feel a powerful warning aura from this bright red triangle with three layers inside and outside.

In addition to the maggot nest, there are five other triangles in this three-layered triangle. Needless to say, they are the six big guys in the six-** boss killing mission. These six guys, plus Brother Ka,

They are the seven generals under Demon King Duriel.

Okay, please tell me, I’m not the only one who suddenly had the idea of ​​General Kai or Shichibukai popping up in my mind. With the Twelve Saints of the Elf Tribe, the Seven Heroes of the Continent, and the Three Giants of Hell, I can almost make up a few.

It's a big show.

The journey was smooth, and the time soon came to night. The temperature in the desert was like a child's temper. It changed at will. There was still a bit of residual heat at dusk. As soon as the sun went down, the temperature dropped sharply.

Every half hour of walking, the biting cold wind blew in my face.

Although the harsh environment has little impact on us, if we encounter a strong enemy in this situation, it will be a disadvantage on the road. To be cautious, when the first gust of cold wind blows, we still choose to stop and rest.

Try to keep yourself in the best condition, because no one knows what you will encounter after arriving at the maggot nest.

Setting up a tent in the desert is ridiculous. Even a novice would not make such a mistake. There is no need for a survival manual to explain. Bendruid, who has experienced in the desert and has a desert survival expert like Tia by his side, just

Knowing what to do, I chose a suitable place and dug the hole without saying a word.

The geology in the upper layer of the desert is loose, so you have to dig deeper, preferably five or six meters deep. This is a huge project for ordinary people. But for adventurers, especially those from the third world, it is not.

It is worth mentioning that very quickly, I dug a large pit six to seven meters deep. Then I gradually dug in all directions to expand the space. In less than ten minutes, a decent underground space was ready.

Digging underground hiding places in the desert is really difficult if you are not quick with your hands and feet. Slow down and the yellow sand above will collapse and fill the big hole you have dug so hard.

If possible, it is best to use magic to reinforce it. In addition to preventing collapse, it can also defend against enemies. Adventurers who are often active in desert areas must know that the sand underground is not a safe paradise. Although the probability is not high, those who like to stay in

Sandworms are burrowing under the sand. If they accidentally break in, it will be great fun. There is simply no more suitable word to describe that situation than catching a turtle in an urn.

Our team does not lack magic experts. Carolie has several elemental skills that she can use. Although Ava is good at mental illusions, it does not mean that she knows nothing about other magic except illusions. Don't forget, angels are synonymous with omnipotence.

, even speaking of pure swordsmanship skills, I may not be able to beat Ai Wa'er.

No matter how bad it is, my druid elemental skills and transformation into the Demon Moon Wolf Witch can also cast magic. It can be said that although our team only has three people, everyone has comprehensive abilities, including long-range and melee combat, magic and physics, etc.

So proficient.

Whoever says that my archery skills are not good, stand up for me and I promise not to beat you to death!

It was night, and there was a bonfire burning in the cave. There were many ventilating holes above the head, and the ventilation was smooth, so you didn’t have to worry about being stuffy even if you lit a fire. I learned it from Tia back then, and I also went to Harrogath and Gothic Gorilla.

Let's practice and test the truth together, and finally apply what we have learned in the hell world. Finally, we have achieved positive results, and our burrowing skills have been successfully promoted to the master level. Although it is not as good as Dia, but it is overqualified to cope with the current situation.

"Sorry, I can't help at all." Carole, who lacks desert experience, could only stand aside when I turned into a pangolin, and she has been blaming herself for this to this day.

"No one is omnipotent, I will teach you another day."

"Yes, please do not hesitate to teach me, Your Highness." Carole showed a determined look, determined to become a wild... no, a personal maid who is an expert in wild survival.

"It's... so ungraceful." Ai Wa'er was staring at me, and she suddenly spoke out.

"What else can you do in this kind of environment?" I knew what she meant and couldn't help but retort.

"I don't know about other people, but as for our angel clan..."

Saying this, Aiwa'er gathered the beautiful white wings behind her and closed them in front of her body, wrapping her entire body, and then emitted holy light, forming an eggshell-like energy shield. Then, she curled up in the translucent [

Inside the egg, it slowly sank and submerged directly into the sand. Kaluge and I were stunned to see it.

It turns out that angels still have this skill, can they learn it? I want to learn it.

After she was completely submerged in the sand and disappeared, after a few seconds, she emerged from the sand again, broke out of her shell, folded her angel wings behind her back, and then stared at me, her eyes seemed to say, look,

This is how angels hide.

"It's not the same as drilling into the ground." Although I envied this simple and convenient method, I felt very unhappy being despised by Aiwa'er. I curled my lips and pretended to be disdainful, so the possibility of learning this trick was wasted.

Already.

The whole night was silent, with Xiaoxue's warm fur as my pillow, and I slept comfortably until dawn. When I opened my eyes, Kalue was already busy preparing breakfast, and Aiwa didn't know when she woke up.

You stared at my sleeping face, not knowing what was going on in my mind, and it made me feel uncomfortable all over. If you do this again, I will call the police.

Taking advantage of the brief refreshing morning in the desert, we accelerated our pace and the journey went surprisingly smoothly. By the time we rested in the evening, we had left the dry highlands behind and entered the remote oasis area. We took out the map and took a look. If tomorrow

If all goes well, the location of the maggot nest will be found around the afternoon.

This marching speed is enough to stun the experienced adventurers who have been stationed in the Lugaoyin area all year round. It is still possible to do it in the first and second worlds. After all, the monsters are not strong, but this is the third world, and the monsters are strong.

As for wisdom, and occasionally encountering accidents, even if an ordinary adventure team travels at the fastest speed, it would take at least eight or ten days to reach the remote oasis safely.
