Chapter 879: The Targeted Ruins Expedition
A week has passed, and all the preparations for the ruins expedition have been completed, and just yesterday, Shirona has returned to the station, and it is said that she has found all the items to break the ruin seal, and can start to deal with the ruin seal at any time.
Just this afternoon, Kamiyo finally led a group of explorers to set off, a team of nearly 300 people plus a variety of large or small machinery and equipment, a long dragon drove into the depths of the desert.
Kaede Sato was sitting on the SUV driven by Hughes at this time, and then comfortably followed the group, but he also had to leave the SUV from time to time, and then take turns with some trainers who patrolled around the team.
Leaving the oasis where the temperature adapted, not long after everyone entered the desert, they soon felt the test from the harsh environment of the desert again, even if they kept drinking water, but the water on their bodies just couldn't be retained, making people constantly thirsty.
No way, although walking in the desert under the scorching sun is very difficult, the desert at night is far more dangerous than during the day.
Therefore, in order to consider the safety of most of the explorers who did not have much ability to protect themselves, Kamiyo still insisted on walking during the day.
"Pikapi~~"
Although Pikachu was wearing a hat, his fine hair made his body rise rapidly under the scorching sun, and he had just left Hughes's air-conditioned car, and he was almost too hot to stand, and he was lying on Sato Kaede's shoulder in a hot dog at this time.
"Who told you not to enter the Poké Ball, let's die of heat, hold on a little longer, the sun will set soon, and it is estimated that by that time, the destination will be almost there."
When Sato Kaede saw Pikachu's appearance, he immediately teased Pikachu a little, and then took out a water bag and gave him a few sips of salt water diluted with a sour and spicy gem-grade energy cube to replenish water and salt.
After Pikachu drank the salt water diluted with gem-grade energy cubes, his mental state quickly improved, and then he began to stand on Sato Kaede's shoulder and look around again.
Soon, he found something he was interested in, and then concentrated on admiring a beautiful scenery not far away, looking extremely fascinated, if it weren't for the Hidden Dragon pulling him with his tongue, he would probably have flown over unconsciously.
The vast procession will inevitably alarm the wild elves that live nearby, some of whom are not easy to mess with, and are extremely fierce by nature, such as the Hippopotamus and the Maned Werewolf.
(As a result of globalization, species that were originally unique to the world have begun to appear elsewhere, like the Thunderbomb in one episode of the anime, which was abandoned by a human trainer in a town that didn't have Thunderballs, and soon after, a large number of Thunderballs and Naughty Thunderballs appeared in the town.) )
Hippopotamus is okay, they generally don't like to move around, as long as they get out of their territory, they don't continue to pursue.
But the maned werewolves are different, these tenacious desert wolves who live in the desert are not only outnumbered, but also never stay in the same place for too long, they usually follow their prey to death, and once they find that their prey is slackening, they will rush to it.
In the team of nearly three hundred people, most of them are ordinary people who do not have much self-protection ability and elves who have not been trained and have low combat effectiveness, which is undoubtedly an incomparably fat piece of meat for the desert wolves such as the Maned Rock Werewolf.
Not long ago, the Ruins Expedition encountered a large pack of maned werewolf wolves numbering more than five hundred.
Although Kamiyo and Shirona immediately realized that the situation was wrong and immediately took action to drive them away, this group of desert wolves had been sending spies to follow the team to the death, and now they couldn't drive them away.
In this case, many people who have experience in walking in the desert know that this group of desert wolves has set their sights on the well-supplied ruins expedition.
As a member of the escort team, Sato Kaede is reasonable, he naturally can't sit idly by, and immediately take the initiative to cut off these little tails that follow the team's buttocks.
The maned werewolves who followed the team this time were all in the daytime form without exception, and the maned werewolves in this form moved very fast, plus most of the characteristics were sand pulling, once they took the initiative to use the sandstorm move, they could move in the desert at a speed that almost no kind of elf could compare to them on land.
"Whew~~"
A maned werewolf who was far behind the ruins expedition team saw Sato Kaede walking towards him, and his eyes suddenly showed a trace of vigilance, and when Sato Kaede was less than 20 meters away from him, he seemed to sense the danger, and immediately howled, and then did not hesitate to use a sandstorm move to retreat.
Suddenly, a miniature sandstorm suddenly appeared around the mane werewolf, and immediately, the movement speed of this mane rock werewolf suddenly increased dramatically, and in the blink of an eye, he quickly disappeared into Sato Kaede's eyes under the cover of the miniature sandstorm.
"It's really vigilant enough, it's not muddy at all, and the execution is really strong enough."
Sato Kaede saw that the mane werewolf quickly withdrew, and without hesitation at all, he immediately said with some interest.
Originally, he wanted to catch a mane werewolf to walk, but unfortunately, this wild elf was too vigilant, and its escape ability in the desert was first-class, and it was almost impossible to catch up.
"These hyenas in the desert are very cunning, they never fight battles without a chance of winning, and they have a lot of stamina, and see, as soon as we go, that guy will definitely make a comeback."
"According to the habits of these guys, I guess they're going to wait until we're most tired before they attack, and tonight, we'll have to wake up to the twelve."
A strong man with a tanned body came to Sato Kaede's side, he handed a large washed pear in his hand to Sato Kaede, and then while eating the big pear in his other hand, he looked at the mane werewolf who was following the team not far away.
The black-faced strong man's name is Luge, and he is an alliance trainer who recently came to carry out the escort mission, and he and Sato Kaede are both civilian trainers at this time.
Therefore, after knowing that Sato Kaede was also from a civilian background and heard about Sato Kaede's deeds in the oasis, this straightforward man quickly became good friends with Sato Kaede, and in recent days, he has dragged Sato Kaede to drink and eat almost every night.
Lu Ge has been to many places, has seen a lot of things, and his strength is also very strong, he is a trainer at the peak level of a quasi-heavenly king, Sato Kaede fights with him in private, and the elf who relies on Teppei's identity alone has always been more defeated than victorious.
Even Kuroki Liang, who is usually the most unruly, after suffering many defeats at the hands of Lu Ge, he did not dare to speak disrespectfully in front of Lu Ge, for fear of being beaten.
Sato Kaede was not polite, he directly used his mental power to divide Sydney into three parts, and after eating one portion himself, the remaining two portions were given to Pikachu and the Hidden Dragon on his shoulder.
The big pear was taken out of the refrigerator just now, and in this hot day, when you take a bite of this chilled pear, most of the heat on your body will disappear at once, making people instantly energetic.
"Capture the thief and capture the king first, as long as Mr. Kamiyo and Miss Shirona defeat the wolf king, this group of desert wolves will be a plate of loose sand, and when the time comes, it will be easy to clean them up."
Sato Kaede finished eating the pear in his hand with great satisfaction, and then said indifferently.
However, he said so, but his eyes kept staring at the direction of the maned rock werewolf's departure, and there was a deep solemnity in his eyes.
