Chapter Twenty-Eight: Civilization Buried Beneath the Sea of Sand
From the moment the sand lizard appeared, Chen Xi pulled out the dagger, he did not choose to retreat, but moved forward slightly, his eyes did not waver, and even the knife stretched out when he smelled the stench in the sand lizard's mouth and stabbed it into the sand lizard's big mouth!
The whole process looks simple, but few people can do it, as the indigenous animal of Shurima, the sand lizard can naturally hide very deeply, and at the moment of shooting, the speed is extremely fast! This is the necessary quality to ensure their survival!
Then, bite, kill in one go, and in this process, the only people who can avoid it are those who are also begging for their lives in Shurima!
However, this is only to avoid it! No one chooses to face the sand lizard at the moment of its attack! Everyone knows that after avoiding the sand lizard's first blow, the latter can only be slaughtered!
And people like Chen Xi are either people who don't get hurt in the slightest in the jagged mouth of the sand lizard, and they don't mind the stench of sand lizard saliva at all, or they are crazy!
Chen Xi was undoubtedly the latter! Moreover, he was the craziest madman Sukawa had ever seen! He killed the sand lizard with just one dagger!
However, no matter what Sukawa thought, Chen Xi had already put away the knife, he wiped off the blood foam that was splashed on his face, and knotted the slightly torn sleeve slightly, making his right sleeve look a little shorter than his left hand!
After that, as if nothing had happened, they continued to walk forward, and by this time, the two people behind had already caught up with half of the sand dunes!
After Chen Xi left here, Sukawa slowly walked in front of the sand lizard's corpse, looking at the wound that stabbed from the back of the sand lizard's neck, and the blood flowing from the sand lizard's mouth, Sukava's eyes widened, you know, Chen Xi's weapon is a dagger! He not only stabbed the sand lizard's mouth accurately with a very fast reaction, but even stretched out his own hand!
Familiar with the habits of the sand lizard, Sukawa knew that when the sand lizard jumped, it had already begun to open its mouth, and when it approached the target, it began to bite! This also means that in the battle just now, as long as Chen Xi missed, he did not kill the sand lizard directly, or was a little slower! Chen Xi would inevitably lose an arm!
"Maniac!"
Looking at the back of the distant departure, Sukawa shuddered, cursed in his mouth, and followed Ruiz, who had already walked by.
There was no more fighting after that, but in Sukawa's heart, Chen Xi had already been listed as one of the people not to be messed with in this desert, before that, this list only had the Saenz tribe, the Shakar Sand Pirates, and the legendary mercenary Sivir who specialized in hunting these two parts!
Chen Xike doesn't care if he is on the list of Sukawa who can't be messed with, he only knows, hurry, hurry, all the lives that can affect his hurry, either give up or die!
The blood on the dagger was wiped away, but it would be covered again......
Time passed little by little, and they didn't know when they would be able to reach their destination in Ruiz, and Chen Xi could only keep moving towards the place where the sun was setting.
Time entered the night again, and this time, Chen Xi unexpectedly did not go to bed early, because Sukawa talked to Ruiz about the destination of their trip!
"Mr. Mage, it's about ten kilometers ahead! I found out three months ago, and I actually found our entire mercenary group, but we couldn't break through that thin barrier, and when we went back, we encountered Shakar again, and the team changed from twelve to two, only me and another scout survived, of course, I asked his opinion, he didn't want to set foot here again!"
Sukawa didn't know why he was talking to Ruiz about this, what he had to say was said at the beginning, but Chen Xi's presence made him feel like he had to say something to be able to focus his thoughts on his black eyes!
"Well, I feel the fluctuation of the magic, very old magic, maybe a little rotten, but it's not something you can break!"
Ruiz replied lightly, but there was already a slight disappointment in his heart.
The world runes he was looking for were also the object of the greed of countless people, and it was impossible for them to let go of such an obvious place, this should not be the place he was looking for!
Of course, what made him make this judgment in the end was that the aura exposed from the broken magic array did not have the kind of supreme power that tempted people to fall into the abyss!
Since he may not get what he wants on this trip, he will change his goal.
Putting his eyes on Chen Xi, he felt the rich despair in Chen Xi's body, as well as the depths of despair, the source of hope, I don't know if despair buried hope, or hope nourished despair!
More and more, Ruiz felt a special aura, an aura that was incompatible with this world! This aura, he had only seen from another old man, but the latter was a person who was rejected by the world!
Two seconds later, Ruiz put away his eyes, and during the whole process, Chen Xi was indifferent, not even a reaction, no one knew whether he was unaware or unconcerned!
"Well, I'm going to explore the ruins tomorrow, I'll go rest first!"
Sukawa, who couldn't stand this atmosphere, left first, he only felt infinite awkwardness in his heart in this depression, as if he was stuffed into a small cabinet with asymmetry, and the embarrassing environment made him almost suffocated!
"Remember what you said!"
Soon after Sukawa left, Chen Xi also said lightly, this is the only thing he has said in the past two days since the eve before, I don't know if it was the wind and sand of the desert that made his throat lack of water or if he didn't speak for too long and looked strange, his voice was a little hoarse.
After that, Chen Xi got up from the sand, picked up the short dagger that was put aside, and walked into the tent.
In the desert, both day and night are long, and if there is a tent, the night will become short, and the sun will rise again surrounded by stars.
This time, no matter who it was, there was no delay, of course, Sukawa was not inspired by the two, or afraid of Chen Xi, he was just because of the ruins that were about to arrive, Ruiz promised him that he only needed one thing inside, whether that thing was there or not, and the rest, as long as Sukawa could take it, it would be his!
So, early in the morning, Sukawa seems to be a little energetic, he is the first person to clean up, driven by desire, people are always full of energy!
By the time 10 kilometers had passed, it was almost three hours later!
In front of him, there was still a desert, and Sukawa looked depressed, but Ruiz stopped, and under his perception, there was a ruin full of magical power!
"You guys go back a bit!"
Ruiz said to Du Xin and the others, he took out the book he had been carrying with him, and in the purple light shining in his hand, the pages were windless, and a powerful, mysterious aura came out!
"Up!"
All the sand gushed out like a fountain, like a sweeping tsunami, splashing in all directions, leaving behind a large crater with a diameter of several hundred meters!
At this moment, whether it was Sukawa, who was always thinking about the precious treasures in the ruins, or Chen Xi, who was in numbness, they all felt the fear brought by the power!
Underneath the bunker is a quaint and gorgeous city, where the golden curtain that flashes over the city from time to time bounces off the grains of sand that fall from time to time, making the city below still full of glory!
