Chapter 549: Brigade
After all, there are too many sand dunes in this desert to count, and if you encounter no sand dunes that you have to take a careful detour, then I am afraid that you will not be able to get out of the desert in this life.
So even if they already knew that the sandworms would disguise themselves as sand dunes and wait for passers-by to attack, they would be helpless.
I had to keep going.
After all, this kind of thing is really impossible to prevent.
I can only hope that they don't meet it.
And the probability of this kind of thing happening is not too much.
Sandworms of more than ten meters are extremely rare.
There are not even a few of them in the whole desert.
Many mercenary groups are eager to meet them, after all, some sandworms are dangerous, but they are also valuable.
Wealth is in danger, and it is precisely because they agree to this that they have become mercenaries.
That is to say, when encountering a large sandworm of more than ten meters disguised as a sand dune to attack, the probability of such a thing is really smaller than buying a lottery ticket.
If you are really attacked and survive, you can really go and buy lottery tickets.
But the current middle-aged store manager is like this.
It's just that he didn't go to buy a lottery ticket, but he arrived more and more that something was wrong.
Because this was attacked by a large sandworm disguised as a sand dune at a level of more than ten meters, such a thing was really very rare in the first place.
But it seems that the recent scarcity has become more and more frequent.
Originally, there were hundreds of caravans in the entire desert, and in the case of tens of thousands, they were originally only likely to encounter a few in a year.
I don't even know what those sandworms are doing, but they don't have them.
But the attacks of the closest sandworms seem to be very frequent.
Just a week later, there have been more than a dozen of them.
That's worth all the attacks in the previous two or three years.
And today, these more than ten meter-level large sandworms disguised as sand dunes to attack are encountered again.
It was to make him feel that something was wrong.
He just felt that it couldn't be a coincidence.
Coincidentally, it is impossible to happen so many times in so much time.
Obviously, there are some sandworms, and there seems to be something abnormal.
However, there are two possible possibilities for this anomaly.
The first type, which was originally a rare large sandworm, suddenly increased in number, and with the increase in food, it is understandable that the number of attacks increased.
And the second possibility, that is, the number of large sandworms has not increased, there are still more than a dozen, but the frequency of their attacks has become higher.
It is even possible that they are consciously attacking humans.
If you do this when you subscribe, it's troublesome.
Although humans have an absolute numerical advantage in this desert, if the scarce number of big sandworms really want to exterminate the human race, I dare not say that it will be absolutely done, but it will definitely cause human beings to suffer heavy losses.
It's not just been less than a week, but there have been more than a dozen incidents of large sandworms attacking people.
That's almost two hundred people missing.
These two hundred people don't even know if they are alive or dead.
If it continues to develop at this speed, then I am afraid that this human stronghold in the desert will really suffer.
Thinking of this, the middle-aged shopkeeper no longer hesitated, and immediately wanted to ask for support.
Do you want to request support from the brigade?
The middle-aged shopkeeper's daughter was also a little surprised to see that the middle-aged shopkeeper seemed to want to go to the brigade for help.
After all, those people in the brigade are not easy to mess with.
It's easier to ask God than to send God, and that's how some people have the impression of an organization called a "brigade."
But it seems that the middle-aged shopkeeper is very determined, even if he knows very clearly that the "brigade" is not a good stubble, he still intends to ask for help like the brigade.
After all, if this continues, only the people of the brigade will be able to solve the threat of some big sandworms.
It's just that when the middle-aged shopkeeper wanted to leave, their mayor appeared in front of him.
Said that he had already sent a request to the brigade a few days ago.
The mayor of the town suddenly told the truth, and the scene was also in an uproar, and many residents were a little worried.
After all, although the people in the brigade do have the strength to deal with those big sandworms, it will be troublesome to get involved with those people.
So even if it was attacked by a big sandworm before, no one planned to ask the brigade for help.
But the current mayor had already sent a request to the brigade without telling them before, which was really unexpected by everyone, and it was very surprising.
After all, the mayor of the town, as the head of a town, is not as simple as some ordinary people like them.
If the mayor of the town sent a request for help from the brigade, he thought that this town was about to be taken over by the brigade for the time being.
They didn't know what the brigade would ask for after the threat of the sandworms was eliminated.
However, according to past experience, those brigades that are always open to the mouth of the lion must have a good deal to loot them.
So that's one of the things that worries them.
That is, whether the big sandworms are a big threat to them, or the brigade is a big threat to them.
After all, although large sandworms can attack humans in the desert, there has never been a precedent for attacking human towns.
In other words, as long as they don't leave the town, there is no certain danger, and they are safe.
The big deal is that you don't run the business for a period of time and lose a little bit of the economy.
But if the people of the brigade come, although they will help them eliminate the big sandworm, they will have to pay revenge, and it is impossible to be less.
That kind of huge remuneration may even make them money for a whole year.
So they generally don't have a good impression of the people in the brigade.
Some people have even begun to blame the mayor for making a private decision, and have already shouted that the mayor should step down.
But just as they were arguing, the ground suddenly began to shake.
What the?
What's going on?!
All of them had some surprises.
Earthquakes?
No!
It's a big sandworm that sprouts out of the ground!
Attacking human towns?
Seeing this scene, everyone was stunned.
I didn't expect the big sandworm to start attacking the human town.
This has never happened before, but it is happening today!
It's also so that everyone doesn't know what to do.
After all, they had never encountered a large sandworm attacking the town before, and they didn't know how to deal with it.
