During the five-hour effort, the crowd had almost exhausted all the food and water they had. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 Except for some overly conservative people who still have some water and compressed biscuits, the rest of the people can only sigh into the air.

The 12-year assessment deadline sounds simple and easy, but when it comes to implementation, it is much more difficult than imagined. Although almost half of the hour had passed now, the food they could satisfy their hunger and the mineral water that provided the source of their life had been depleted, and without these two things, it would be very difficult to continue to survive the other half of the hour.

The lack of food is fine, and normal humans can survive without food for a week. When your body is commanding to need food, and the subject is unable to provide external satisfaction, the body's system automatically consumes the fat stored in the body to provide the energy needed for life existence. However, if there is no timely replenishment of water, at the latest within three days, the human body will seriously enter a state of shock due to lack of water, and even face the threat of death. Coupled with the extreme environment of the desert, the rate of water loss in the human body is exacerbated several times. Therefore, at this time, the people participating in the assessment are facing the most important and urgent problem to solve, that is: water source.

As time passed, the vast expanse of clear skies began to fade, and dusk arrived as promised. Not only that, but there was a refreshing breeze blowing outside, so it wasn't cool. The people who had taken refuge in the sand pit to resist the scorching sun also jumped out of the sand pit one after another, feeling the joy of being reborn after the catastrophe.

However, even if the body is cooled and refreshed, they still can't get rid of the sequelae of dehydration when they are severely dehydrated. At this time, everyone's throat was dry, their lips were covered with a layer of white foam, and their faces were sickly earthy yellow like those of wanderers who hadn't eaten for days, and they looked very haggard.

The male members who participated in the assessment were fine, but the female members were not so lucky. Their bodies are already weak, and it is almost difficult for their bodies to maintain normal movements, let alone others, under severe dehydration. At this time, after they got out of the sand pit, they supported each other and snuggled up, looking very fragile.

"I feel like I smell moisture in the air"!

Suddenly, a member of the assessment who had unique attainments in scent tracking closed his eyes and sniffed the oncoming air, and then said lightly.

As everyone knows, his seemingly understated tone suddenly attracted everyone's attention.

"Nine, what you said is true"?

Hearing this, Soul Eater blurted out and asked.

Everyone seemed to have found a life-saving straw, and instantly surrounded the members of the Nine who spoke, surrounded by the inner three floors, and the outer three floors were impassable.

"What the subordinates said is true, in the breeze that has just blown, there is indeed a bit of water vapor. According to the experience of his subordinates, there must be a water source within a radius of thousands of miles. So, if we can find that source of water, we can solve the most important problem we face right now."

To the Soul Eater's inquiry, Nine, who had spoken before, replied conclusively.

In terms of exploration and exploration of mineral deposits and geological and water conservancy, his ability was recognized throughout the Great Qin Empire. His ancestors served the royal family of the Great Qin Empire for generations, and once helped the Qin State excavate and mine several large gold and silver mines.

Therefore, his clan was named a gold prospector by Qin Shi Huang - Ying Zheng Imperial Court, and received special care and treatment from the royal family for generations. As for himself, he was bent on making meritorious contributions on the battlefield and making great achievements for the country, so he did not stay in the family and explore the existence of gold and silver mines for the empire like other clansmen, but entered the military camp.

However, the art of geographical exploration is the essence of his ancestors' inheritance, and even though he is in the field, he still knows the art of family inheritance. That's why he felt the smell of moisture in the majestic wind that had just blown.

"Very well, so that you lead the way, and a few of you come out with me, and the others stand by while they stand by. It was about to get dark, and we tried to find a source of water before it got dark and bring it back."

"I'll go"!

"I'll go too"!

"Count me in"!

As soon as Soul Eater's words fell, several people volunteered to stand up and ask to follow them to find water.

"Okay, just a few of you come with me! We give them all the containers of water in our hands, and then we rest in place, and we will return as soon as we find the water."

For the words of Soul Eater, everyone chose unconditional belief and obedience.

Next, led by Nine, the Soul Eater and his party walked towards the small pond under the crescent-shaped sand dune with empty bottles of mineral water from all the members in their hands.

"Oh? They've found a water source a kilometer away"?

Through the footage transmitted back by the real-time monitoring system of the pulse aircraft, Wu Fei saw that the Soul Eater and the others, led by the members with the number nine on their chests, were walking towards the location of the small pond, and immediately opened his mouth with some surprise.

"General, is there anything special about this member of Nine?"

The reason he asked was because the path of the Soul Eaters was simply astonishing, their path was in a straight line, and there were no detours in between.

You must know that the small pond under the crescent-shaped sand dunes a kilometer away from the location of the assessment members has a small water area, and it is also blocked by the crescent-shaped sand dunes next to it. If you look at the sand dunes from where the members are located, you can only see the sand dunes, and it is impossible to see the small pond under the sand dunes at all.

So now the question arises, how do the members of the Nine assessment know that the small pond is under the shade of the sand dunes? Could it be that he can't do it, what other special functions can't he do?

"Haha, Master Hou, you don't know about this"!

Faced with the doubts on Wu Fei's face, Meng Tian, who was sitting in the passenger seat, responded with a laugh.

"Oh? Is there anything else in this? Listen to you".

Hearing this, Wu Fei suddenly became interested.

Seeing Wu Fei's excited look, Meng Tian talked about the identity and origin of the members who participated in the assessment of No. 9.

"The name of the member of the Nine is Li Liu, and his ancestor is Li Yi, a master with an ancient astrology and divination tradition. This Li Yike is a very powerful character, legend has it that he can spy on everything in the world, and even turn back time, as for whether this legend is true or not, this last general has no way of knowing.

However, Li Da handed down to his descendants a strange book about touching gold and geographical survey, which was called: "The Art of Touching Gold". It is said that there are some very important notes on touching gold, exploring water, astrology, divination, etc. It is with this strange book that his descendants can be appreciated by His Majesty today and become famous in one fell swoop.

However, Li Liu's volunteer was not here, but devoted himself to the barracks, fighting bloody battles with the enemy on the battlefield. However, as the inheritor of the Li family, he has completely inherited the family's strange book, and it is normal for him to be able to find a water source."

"I see"!

After listening to Meng Tian's words, Wu Fei solved the doubts in his heart.
