Chapter 272: The Camp in the Illusion
The sun rises higher and higher.
The surface of the desert was scalding, and the air in the distance was scorching and distorted.
Two middle-aged men, one gloomy and the other slightly chubby, slowly walked out of the back of the sand dunes, like a drop of water, into the vast expanse of the desert.
There is a faint soul power on these two people, but at the moment they are gray and their clothes are in tatters.
The scorching sun is like a thousand sharp arrows, falling from the sky and covering the entire desert.
Ark and Swan felt like a fish on a heated iron plate as they walked in the sunlight.
In order to avoid being roasted, they had to walk as far as possible in the back of the dune, and even then, after walking for a while, he felt a drastic exertion of his physical strength.
At the same time, a feeling of hunger was faintly conveyed to him.
Ark licked his lips, which were so dry that he had trouble swallowing a mouthful of spit.
Thirsty.
"Swan, where is the camp you are talking about? And how did you find out where I fell so far? "It's all right," Ark asked, a little confused.
"It's not far away, and you will arrive after the big sand dune, and the camp is behind the sand dunes, so as not to be scorched by the scorching sun, and besides, I found your traces because whenever anyone appears in the land of divine punishment, there will be reminders and guidance, which is why I have already arrived when you have just woken up." Siwang pointed to the rather tall sand dunes in front of him, wiping his sweat and panting.
"However, when you get to the camp, you have to be careful, you don't think that your soul king is very powerful, if you are not careful, you will die." As a good friend of Ark, Swann spent two whole days in this so-called 'land of divine punishment', and if he didn't tell him about the rules of the camp, he would die.
"Oh? Why? ”
Siwang's face gradually became solemn, "The Soul King here is the lowest level, the Soul Emperor, and there are many Soul Saint sinners. ”
"The camp is not big, there are only about thirty people living in it, but in it, there are twenty-five sinners, and the rest are all staff of the Land of Divine Punishment, among which the administrator is the largest, followed by law enforcers, scholars, supervisors, and even cooks, none of them are below level eighty, it is simply terrifying. When you get there, it's time for us to get to work. ”
"You said start..... Wait, it won't really be, thirty years of mining life! Don't people go crazy yet? Suddenly, Ark exclaimed.
"Otherwise, you and we are a group, if you don't arrive, we naturally can't start, only work, only to eat, otherwise you look at this vast desert, where can you get food? You'll starve to death in less than three days! Siwang sneered and pointed to the endless yellow sand dunes around him.
Don't have anything to eat?
Suddenly, Ark shuddered.
"In other words, you don't have a choice, do you? So, you also resigned yourself to your fate? Ark's expression was a little downcast, and his legs were weak, and he simply sat down on the sand.
He looked out over the desert and watched the monotonous yellow spread out, eventually blending with the blue of the sky.
The scorching sun made the air twist like crazy.
Ark suddenly felt that the whole desert was like a madman who was calm on the surface, but in fact there was no cure for it. Here, sooner or later, he will be melted and driven crazy!
"Don't think about it, hurry up, it's not noon yet, maybe everyone is together, and you can still have a lunch, otherwise you will wait and continue to be hungry." Swann didn't have so many distractions, and stood directly beside Ark and pulled him up.
Perhaps, his thoughts have been smoothed out in just two days.
It was noon, and the sun was not as hot as noon, but it was still unbearable.
Two figures slowly climbed to the top of a towering sand dune.
They started from the back of the dune, obviously to climb over the dune.
Their heads were covered with a layer of clothing, their noses and mouths were tightly covered, but their eyes were greatly exposed, and there was chestnut hair on their foreheads.
It was Ark and Swan.
The top of the dunes was just a few steps away, and the sun was shining in it, causing Ark to squint.
The two continued their trek through the desert under the scorching sun.
Before you know it, the sand dunes are starting to reappear next to Needle Ark.
"What's that?" In his blurred vision, Ark spotted a large black shadow hovering at the foot of the dunes.
As he got closer, Ark's expression suddenly changed slightly, and as a soul king, he could already see clearly at this moment, it was a somewhat large camp.
"It's finally here, look at this smoke, it should still be noon." Siwang glanced at the slowly rising white fireworks and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Now that everyone is together, they can finally eat a meal, in addition to the water in the past two days, a total of seven of them are hungry, seeing that everyone else has broth and black bread to eat, and they can only smell the fragrance and sigh, the taste is too grinding.
Soon, the two climbed the hill and came to the front of the camp.
What catches your eye is a series of low-slung bungalows, made entirely of white earth and wood, like small bunkers, with doors and windows, and a blinding white light under the scorching sun.
Amazingly, however, the bungalows were scattered around the camp in a circular shape, leaving a huge brazier in the center of the camp and a wooden fence enclosing the camp at the edge of the camp.
Between the bungalow and the brazier, there is a thin corridor like a roof similar to an oilcloth roof, and there are tables and chairs in it, which are continuously extended and evenly distributed, faintly showing a classroom-like pattern, and the lectern is near the brazier.
"Is this the camp? Why didn't you see a single person? Yak suddenly noticed an unusual place, although the camp was large, rich, and there seemed to be a well in the corner, however, it was not popular.
"How can there be no one, you see, isn't this coming?" The corners of Siwang's mouth twitched, and he pointed in one direction.
Ark hurriedly looked over, his face slightly condensed.
Not far from the camp, there appears to be a cave in the dunes that rises abruptly.
The entrance to the cave is about five meters high, and torches are planted near the cave, forming an artificial path.
This also illuminates the environment of the cave, which is visible to the naked eye, and there are torches attached to the wall in the cave, so as not to be too dark and unable to see the road.
At this moment, more than twenty people slowly walked out of it, carrying a bamboo basket more than half a person high on their backs, and the golden and black stones in the bamboo basket attracted Ark's attention.
Ark looked at the stone.
The stone is oval-shaped, standing silently in the bamboo basket, and the surface of the boulder faintly shimmers with a slight metallic luster, but it is pitted, completely insulated from the word "smooth", and there are countless fine and dense small potholes.
What's weird is that from these small pits like sesame seeds, a warm breath constantly comes out.
"Is this the granite granite?"
Glevisite is a mixture of iron, gold, ether and other special minerals, and the composition and proportion of the components are different according to different origins.
He had also seen this kind of stone being auctioned, and from the auctioneer's preliminary inference, these golden granites contained rich soul power, and even a chest-sized golden granite could be made into a special soul power transmission weapon.
It can reduce the soul master's soul power consumption in battle, or increase a certain soul skill.
Unfortunately, to extract the essence from the huge and heavy granite granite, specific means are required.
