Chapter 104: Desert Enlightenment

This is one of the five deserts of Tutankhamun's empire, and it is also a place where the mutant energy is quite bad, and there are some extremely tenacious oases in the desert that can provide supplies, but there are also many more dead places that even Muzi feels troubled by.

The surrounding sand became extremely hot under the sunlight, and the occasional wind in the air also carried a strong heat and the smell of sand, but more often it was calm, and the whole world was like a dead silence, there was no wind or any sound, just the boundless desert and the vicious sun overhead.

A young sand lizard is lying on the golden sand and enjoying the sun, mutated creatures have more adaptability than humans, they may not be able to get rid of the need for water, but their habits have fully adapted to the desert environment. The sand lizard's expression was quite leisurely and relaxed, there were no other mutant creatures in the vicinity, it was quite safe, but it was cold, it suddenly felt something, turned over and turned over from the ground, its limbs fell to the ground, its small eyes rolled around, and it looked at the surrounding movements vigilantly.

Soon it saw the shadow of a human coming from a distance, unlike ordinary desert travelers and walkers, he did not wear the kind of large-brimmed hat and mask that could protect him from the wind and sand, and he did not have any extra equipment with large bags and small bags, and even his clothes were very thin. This is the desert of Tutankhamun, and the temperature difference between day and night is quite large, don't look at the heat on the ground during the day, but at night, it can freeze off a layer of your skin. But this man didn't care at all, a thin shirt and a small backpack were all his equipment, but he didn't look like a robbed refugee, his walking posture was unusually steady, and his speed was also very fast, the sand lizard was still several miles away when he first saw him, but in just a few tens of seconds, he had already reached a position only a few hundred meters away from him, which startled the sand lizard, and swayed the sand under his feet, and disappeared without a trace.

The figure was none other than Wang Chong, and it was the tenth day since he left the village of Kachirta and had entered the heart of the Pink Desert of Moradis.

This is a place recommended by Muzi.

Carrying a small backpack on his back, he didn't even bring Tianxun, his body was unfettered, and he seemed to have returned to the silence of his childhood, although the surrounding environment was very empty, but his heart was very full.

Is there dead silence in the desert? Wang Chong once thought so, and even when he struggled with Gong Yi and others in the desert for more than half a month, he did not change this opinion.

But when his heart calmed down, after walking in this loneliness for a few days, he slowly realized that in fact, in this empty world on the surface, there is still vitality, whether it is ordinary creatures or mutated creatures, even desert plants, they have tenacious vitality, they may not be easy to see on the surface of the desert, but hidden in the ground of the desert, hidden behind the distant hills, hidden in some places that are easy for you to ignore at a glance, have been constantly blooming with the brilliance of life.

Walking every day, experiencing every day, the more you see, the more you experience, just like Muzi said, this is a completely different feeling, Muzi has already set foot in the Tutankhamun Empire, so he has gained the current strength.

It's only ten days, Wang Chong is already bearded and unkempt, but his eyes are sharper, and everything around him has a different meaning for him, just like a newborn baby, greedily breathing the air of the world, looking at this colorful world curiously, learning and remembering everything here.

There is a shortage of water in the desert, but it is not without water, especially after the change of the environment, the desert has not changed, but the vitality here has changed, and it has become stronger, which means that the water will be gathered by plants, but ordinary people can't see it, because they are controlled by some huge plant rhizomes in the ground.

Therefore, for ordinary people, it is very difficult to find water, but for Wang Chong, it is different, he is a big five elements body, and he can feel the existence of various elements.

Through unremitting practice, as long as you feel the flow of water power in the air, you will find the source of water, no matter how subtle, it will spread into the air, and intuition will lead you to those resources entrenched under the sand.

However, although this method is feasible, it also requires a lot of practice, at the beginning Wang Chong judged that there were a lot of errors, although he could feel the power of the water element in the air, but he often dug in the wrong place, that kind of water element power is diffusion, floating in the desert, you have to distinguish its source and direction, and even the distance of diffusion, which requires the perception of the five elements to reach an indescribable degree of harshness.

However, with the delicate perception and continuous practice, Wang Chong gradually felt that he was fused with the desert, more suitable for this place and more accustomed to here, so the feeling of distinguishing the water element in the complex air flow became clearer and clearer, a bit like the state of the heart eye, but it is not, a higher level, insight into the environment, dissolved in the environment, this is the transformation from the active release of the heart eye to the passive perception, quite natural.

Finding water is just one of the essentials to survive in the desert, and you'll need more to survive here and complete this expedition.

Food, endurance, in the face of danger, the polarization of mutated creatures in the desert is quite large, the weak ones are indeed very weak, small variants such as sand scorpions and sand lizards are purely things that come out to feed new humans, they are at the bottom of the entire desert ecosystem, not to mention that in the face of powerful mutant creatures, even many mutant plants can feed on them.

Wang Zhong was also observing, and he found a very interesting phenomenon, maybe the people in the desert did not think about it this way, but the phenomenon did exist. These small variants such as the sand lizard and sand scorpion, which are at the bottom of the desert biological chain, are their natural enemies throughout the desert, but they are the only ones that are all over the desert and thrive the most.

While nature has evolved, although it has created the most natural enemies for them, it has also endowed them with other abilities that are quite perverted, first of all, the fertility of these variants is far greater than what was once normal.

Take mutant iguanas as an example, Wang Chong studied about them in biology class, and in the sunny age, they could only lay eggs once a year, and each ovulation was about three to six eggs. Since entering the Dark Ages, they have become larger, and can lay eggs six times a year, almost once every two months, and each time they can lay forty to a hundred eggs, and the whole growth cycle is greatly shortened, only half a year to reach adulthood, which can be called terrifying.
