Chapter 243: Water Shortage
Tianming Dao on the edge of the cliff clenched the dagger in his hand, his eyes staring at the sun level that was rushing towards him like an eagle.
Suddenly, as if something was calling to him in his body, he suddenly received a series of coordinates in his brain, and in this case, it means that the obsidian has recovered its effect!
"Roarβ"
In a few seconds, as if there was wind under his feet, a mass of black crystals slowly climbed up his legs along his ankles, condensing into a pair of solid and lethal leg armor at the thighs, with a faint red light under the armor, and gas constantly spewing out from inside.
In the blink of an eye, the sun-level dangerous species had already rushed in front of Tianming Dao, he sensed the changes in his body, quickly moved his right leg, and then kicked heavily at the sun-level jaw!
Hearing only the sound of "boom", the huge sun level was kicked into the air, its chin and head were completely disjointed, and its flesh and blood fell down in a blur, it probably didn't expect that Tianming Dao would suddenly restore the obsidian armament, so it neglected to defend against the obsidian attack.
"Has Obsidian recovered?" Yang Xiaokai tried to summon the Black Knife, if he could deliver a fatal blow to the Sun Rank from behind, the battle would end immediately, but it backfired, no matter how much he made the will bite with the Obsidian, he couldn't summon the Celestial Knife.
There is no doubt that the obsidian of Tianming Dao was also in a state of invalidation before, but why is it suddenly returning to normal now?
Yang Xiaokai glanced at the sun level that fell to the ground, and then observed the position of Tianming Dao, the place where he was standing seemed to be the place where he saw the green dot flickering on the obsidian just now, could it be......
"So, it turns out that we are outside the scope of obsidian's ability. Yang Xiaokai seems to understand the strange events so far, if the obsidian really distinguishes between valid and invalid, then only this interpretation is the most correct.
Before Tianming Dao could stand up, he stepped forward quickly and stomped off the tail that it had just waved halfway with!
"Shhh
He still didn't intend to give the monster a moment to breathe, he raised his right leg high, and a black spike appeared from the heel of his heel, and as the calf fell down strongly, it also pierced through the entire body of the sun level, smashing the ground with one kick!
Blood flowed out from under the sun-level body, which seemed to be the location of the heart, and Tianming Dao hit its death hole with a kick, and buried its life steadily, and now it would never get up and attack again.
After his will relaxed, the black armor covering Tianming Dao's legs slowly faded, and he took a few rare breaths, it seemed that even a person like him would be very tired after using obsidian.
Several people rushed to the sun-level corpse, and sure enough, the obsidian could be reused here, and then Yang Xiaokai finally concluded what he had just thought.
"Ahead is the neutralized area of Obsidian, and I don't know how long this area will last. Yang Xiaokai simply explained the invalidity of obsidian to Fujiwara and Hades, and Tianming Dao himself had some experience, and he could probably know what was going on.
"In this we can't use the Obsidian Armament or any of the Obsidian's abilities, just ordinary humans. Fujiwara unzipped the backpack behind him and spread it on the ground, "These are all our guns, and the bullets are running out, and it might be dangerous to force your way through here." β
"I said you should know too, there's only one way we can go. Hades glanced at the cliff behind him, they came up from the hillside over there, which meant that there was no other way out of this neutralized area in a straight line.
"We can only take one step at a time, we have to be careful, and this is the only way to get to the exit. Tianmingdao threw the gun in his hand into his backpack and walked towards the place where the team had just advanced.
Ten minutes later, the four joined the team, but more difficult problems reappeared.
Due to the fact that Minami had wasted the last of Sakurama's water resources, the team was now in a state of extreme water shortage, and after crossing the ridge, people found that there was no water source at all, and everyone had not had a drop of water in their throats all day, and it was unbearable dry.
"The environment here is worse than expected, the air is dry, and there is no sign of water around. Samusa stood at the edge of the ridge, and in front of him was a plain, unobstructed by trees, and the sky seemed to be close at hand.
But there is not a single flowing stream in the green grassland, and it takes about a day to follow this route to the forest on the opposite side, and this day is the hardest day, as long as you leave the dry air, you will definitely find a source of drinking water.
"Sister Sakisa, this is the case, we must find out how big this neutralized area is, otherwise our safety may be a little worrying. Yang Xiaokai told Samuzo everything about the battle against the Sun Level on the ridge, and she understood what she meant, but she didn't know how to deal with the obsidian neutralization incident.
It took too many bullets to deal with the Sun-class, and now there were probably only a few working guns and less than five magazines left, plus a few pistols stolen from Ice Room and Ibaraki, barely enough for them to fight about three battles.
"Worst of all, we can't sit and rest, we have to get out of here as soon as possible. β
After a short rest, the team left the ridge and headed for the grassland.
The grass growing in the ground is taller than it looks on the ridge, and the height of the chest makes it difficult for many people to move forward, and they have to use knives to constantly cut the tall grass next to them to get a wider view.
"Sister, are you okay?" Yang Xiaokai's hand was suddenly cut by the blade of grass beside him, and only then did he consider Sakuruma, who had been wearing a skirt, and when she looked back, her two snow-white legs were already covered with red and swollen wounds!
"Leave me alone, Kai, and keep going. β
"What a joke. Yang Xiaokai immediately took off his coat and tied it around Sakura's waist, so that the coat just covered her legs, which would slightly reduce the cut of some blades of grass, "We have to walk here all day, and if we are cut like this when we get here, you will not be able to stand it at the end of the day." β
Sakuruma smiled slightly, but the smile slowly lowered again, she seemed to think of Xia Cheng who was left in the forest, it had been a few months, I don't know how she was now, if she found someone else, there would be a chance of life, if she walked alone in the forest......
"Kai, did I get wrong from the beginning......
"Huh?" Yang Xiaokai asked as he opened the way in front.
"If I hadn't suggested coming to the beach, would we still be here now?There are so many places that are more fun than the beach, why would I choose this place......" Sakuruma's voice gradually cried, she was just a girl, but she always wanted to take all the responsibility on herself.
"Sister, that guy in Xia Cheng is not so easy to die, although he is indeed a little reckless in his usual life, but if he is cautious, this level should be fine. Yang Xiaokai firmly believed that Xia Cheng was not dead, no matter how much life she had, he hoped that she would survive, and she would definitely come in the direction of the exit with obsidian.
Sakurama took a deep breath and adjusted her mood, now the whole team is on the edge of the life and death line of lack of water, if the mood becomes very bad at this time, I am afraid there will be no chance to leave this grassland alive.
At dusk, the people with dry mouths left the grassland with a body of injuries, and were in the forest again, and they couldn't help but feel a sense of despair in their hearts, the obsidian still did not recover, and there were many monsters on the road, and the ammunition was sharply reduced again.
"There should be water nearby, and the air is much wetter than before. Samusa's skin was very sensitive, and she could easily sense how many water molecules were in the air around her, so she urged Hades to say, "Zhi, go and let them stop on Flower Island, everyone go to the neighborhood to search for water sources, and we will camp here tonight." β
"Got it. β
Ten minutes later, half of the group went around looking for water, while the other stayed to reinforce the camp and prepare dinner, and even if water could not be found, some food would lift the spirits of the people a little.
Yang Xiaokai and Shamuzuo headed towards the forest together, and the others just buried their heads in looking for a place where there might be a water source ahead, but Shamuzuo kept staring at the plants and observing.
"Sister Samusa, could these plants contain water?" asked Yang Xiaokai as he walked up to a low plant.
Samusa shook his head and said, "They do contain water, but I'm not sure if they can be drunk, and the amount is too small to supply the whole team." However, the vegetation here is denser than in other places, and this distribution range and density, even if there is water, should be found here. β
Yang Xiaokai's eyes suddenly flashed, and he said excitedly: "Then let's go over there!"
By this time, the sky was getting dark, and it would not be long before it would be extremely white, and it would be more difficult to find water at night, so there were less than twenty minutes left for them now.
The two of them walked a distance of about a few tens of meters away from the dense plants, and Samuzo suddenly stopped, listening to something with his ears sideways. After a few seconds, she crouched down and stabbed her dagger into the ground beneath her feet, and when she pulled it out, it was still covered with a lot of wet dirt.
"It's around here. Samusa stood up, and she subconsciously licked her dry lips at the thought of the water source.
Depending on the distribution of the plants, there seems to be more on the left, which means that the water that nourishes them should be there!
"Xiaokai, go back and inform them that they have come here, and they have found a water source. Samusa pushed aside a bush, and sure enough, he found a fist-sized spring underneath it, from which the bubbling clear water was gushing out, and a small pool of water had accumulated not far below, and the stones around it had been polished unusually smooth by the impact of the long current.
