Chapter 868: Finding the Tower of Phantoms
Under the scorching sun, a young man in a sun hat was walking in the desert, and beside him, he seemed to have no other companions except for a Pikachu who was spitting out his little tongue and showing an uncomfortable expression.
This young man is naturally Sato Kaede, who is now undergoing a grueling special training in the desert, looking for the teleported Phantom Tower.
By this time, three days had passed since the end of the support operation, and the sandstorm had come and gone as fast as it could, and it had only ravaged the oasis for one night before moving.
During these days, the station has been busy rebuilding, and the expedition to the ruins has been postponed again because of this.
In order not to waste time, Sato Kaede decided to practice in the desert for a while, and just yesterday, he rescued a man who almost died of thirst in the desert in the desert, and then he got the news of the Phantom Tower from this person.
Unfortunately, he had been searching the area pointed out by the man on the map for most of the day, and all he could see was a vast sea of sand, and he couldn't even see the shadow of the Phantom Tower.
Under the scorching sun, the heat wave once again blows with the wind, making the creatures walking in the desert feel the heat of the desert more deeply.
Sato Kaede took out a water bag from the space backpack, and after taking a big sip of it himself, he gave Pikachu, who was about to suffer from heat stroke but didn't want to go back to Pokéball, to take a sip of it.
"In another half a day, if you can't find it, you can only return, with a bunch of water elves in your hand, and the remaining water can only support one day."
Sato Kaede weighed the handbag that was left in his hand, then looked at the desert that was still empty nearby, and said helplessly.
In the so-called saving people, he handed nearly half of the water on his body to the pedestrian who almost died of thirst, so that the water in his hands has begun to be in short supply, and if he can't find the oasis to replenish the water, he can only return tomorrow.
The desert under the scorching sun seems to be vast and dead at this time, but in fact, it is full of vitality, and likewise, it also reveals deadly crises everywhere.
Kaede Sato walks very slowly, and he walks very steadily with every step, and every step is able to leave a deep footprint on the sand.
Suddenly, he stopped, for a small half of his foot that had just stepped in the sand was sinking into the sand.
In the next second, his other one suddenly exerted force, and then jumped backwards for a short distance, and at this time, a large-jawed ant suddenly opened its mouth and burrowed out from under the sand of Sato Kaede's foot that had sunk into the sand.
Due to Sato Kaede's timely retreat, this big-jawed ant that was waiting for the rabbit underneath, his big mouth could only be the air, but its amazing bite force still caused a slight shock in the air.
The big jaw ant did not give up because of the temporary failure of the sneak attack, he began to quickly activate his sand hole characteristics, causing the sand within a radius of ten meters to begin to fall around him, and in just a few seconds, a huge sand hole in the shape of a hole quickly formed.
Kaede Sato was in the sand hole created by the big jaw ant at this time, and his feet were also selected into the extremely soft sand, and his body began to slowly approach the big jaw ant in the center of the sand hole.
However, Sato Kaede's face was not much fear at this time, but he looked at the big-jawed ant in front of him with great interest, which was urging the characteristics of the sand cave to hunt.
The big-jawed ant was obviously very dissatisfied with Sato Kaede's prey that fell into his trap without showing any hint of panic, and before Sato Kaede could completely fall in front of him, he immediately jumped out of the center of the sand hole, and then viciously pounced on Sato Kaede's head.
The evil aura spread through its large mouth, and the big-jawed ant performed a biting move at Sato Kaede.
Unfortunately, before the big-jawed ant could successfully bite Sato Kaede, a rapidly shooting miniature stream of water suddenly shot out of Sato Kaede's chest, and then hit the big-jawed ant accurately.
As a ground elf, the big jaw ant has a very weak special defense ability, and he was hit by this fast and rapid miniature flow of water, and immediately let out a miserable scream, and then fell to the ground.
At the same time, a small five-pointed star-shaped pokef began to emerge from Sato Kaede's chest, it was the sea star that had been hidden with the protective color before, and the water gun of the big-jawed ant that had just been defeated with one blow was released from its gem core.
Among the water elves in Sato Kaede's hands at this time, in addition to the blastoise, which can barely move in the desert for a long time, there is only the starfish, which can reduce water evaporation as much as possible by becoming smaller.
In the previous few days of battles, the starfish has always been the main elf used by Sato Kaede, and through many battles, its level has been raised to level 41, which is not far from level 42, which can automatically master spiritual power.
Sato Kaede's previous assumption was that once the starfish learned to be spiritually strong, he would use the best water stone to make it smoothly evolve into a gem starfish, and when the time came, he would add a superpower elf to his hand.
"Come out, Swamp Monster, feel it, and see that there is nothing good in this sand cave."
After Sato Kaede defeated the Jawed Ant, he released the Giant Swamp Monster and said to it with a smile.
Danger and opportunity coexist, although the jawed ants are very dangerous elves in the desert, they are one of the few elves in the desert who can collect good things in the desert.
With a bit of luck, desert passers-by are often able to find some of the desert's treasures in the sand caves they have created to live in and hunt.
When the giant swamp monster heard this, he immediately stuck his body in the place where the big jawed ant came out, and soon, his eyes lit up, and then he quickly dug the sand under his body with his hands.
After a while, the surrounding ground was littered with the dry bones of some unknown creatures and some garbage, and finally, a dozen grains of sand with an earthy yellow glow were sifted out of the sand by the giant swamp monster.
These dozen or so grains of sand that emitted an earthy yellow glow were the treasures hidden in the sand burrows of the big jawed ants, and they were the raw materials used to make the soft sand of the ground-based augmentation items.
Of course, the Giant Swamp Monster can find these dozen little treasures in this countless sand, which is also the fact that the Giant Swamp Monster, a fully qualified elf, has excellent control and affinity for ground energy.
When the Swamp monster retrieved these precious grains of sand, the jawed ant also regained a little bit of strength, and then regained consciousness.
And when he saw the treasure in the giant swamp monster's hand, a pair of eyes suddenly turned red, and he immediately screamed, and immediately, a piercing white light emanated from him.
