Chapter 48: The Desert Kingdom

"Wow! Come and see, master! This cactus is really big. ”

Oni, a little girl running in the desert, found a huge cactus, she ran to the bottom of the cactus, looked up at the three-story cactus, and the big eyes inside the cloak were full of curiosity.

"It's quite big, a lot bigger than the ones on Earth." Chen Yue thought in his heart.

After seeing the cactus, Chen Yue could also breathe a sigh of relief, they finally didn't get lost.

It may be because Chen Yue provided a large amount of rune energy, and when Oni was just summoned, she had the strength of the legendary level, and she could transform into a human form, turning into a little girl wearing a black princess dress.

The nickname of Oni was also given to her by Chen Yue, although she is the heir of Onixia, she does not have to inherit this name.

Now in Naxxramas, Oni's status is similar to that of a princess, and anyone who offends her will be tricked to death by her endless pranks.

The black witch Falina empathizes, and as soon as she looks at the lovely Oni, she wants to get close to each other with her beautiful appearance. But Oni didn't buy it except for Chen Yue, looking at Falina who wanted to hug her, she actually tore Falina's robe on the spot, causing her spring to leak out, and Falina could only flee in embarrassment.

The plaguebringer North picked up the torn robe and recrafted a black iron robe from the shards and materials on hand.

The Black Witch Farina glared at Oni viciously, and then took the robes from the Plaguebringer North. Her relationship with North has also improved somewhat, after all, they will have to live and adventure together in the future, and the previous things can only be put aside for the time being.

Oni had done a lot of bad things before leaving, tearing down one of Parchwick's ribs to play with, turning into a dragon to bully Saxhiron who didn't dare to resist, and going to the plague area to catch a few fat meat maggots and put them in Farina's room.

In short, almost all the leaders of Naxxramas have been tricked by Oni, and even Mr. Bigworth can't escape her clutches, and the cat's hair has been scratched bald by Oni, and Mr. Bigworth meows in pain, which makes its owner Kel'thugad feel distressed.

If it weren't for the fact that Oni was Chen Yue's mount, Kel'thugad would have to educate her well.

When Oni left Naxxramas, almost all the undead were rejoicing, even Cameron who had just joined, and his diamond golem was slapped around as a toy by Oni in dragon form, and it almost shattered completely.

"Don't be too surprised, Oni, cacti larger than this are common, but seeing a cactus means that we have come to the outskirts of the Great Sand Sea of Death." Chen Yue smiled as he looked at the cactus in front of him, which was the first giant plant they had encountered since leaving Naxxramas.

The Great Sand Sea of Death is divided into three areas, the core area, the central area and the peripheral area, of which the core area is the hardest hit area of the arcane radiation, and it is the place where the floating island falls the most, except for a few monsters, there are no creatures that can survive in it.

The location of the Mage Tower is at the junction of the core and central areas, and the location is very remote, and few people will come.

The arcane radiation in the central area is much smaller, and it can be absorbed by many desert animals and plants, becoming a paradise for these desert animals and plants with strong vitality, and it is also a territory for many powerful demonic beasts, which directly leads to this place becoming one of the famous ninth-level dangerous places on the mainland.

As for the core area, it was one of the few tenth-level dangerous places, and the level of strategy was second only to that of God Butcher.

At the same time, the central area is also full of various ruins from the Arcane Empire period, which is also the favorite place for adventurers, but only if you find out the location of those powerful magical beast territories.

The monsters in the central area of the desert have a very strong sense of territory, and under normal circumstances, as long as adventurers do not set foot in their territory and choose to avoid them far away, they are too lazy to hunt them down.

However, the location of the Monster territory changes from time to time, especially after a sandstorm.

Sandstorms obscure the scent left behind by these beasts, blurring the borders, and sometimes connecting two beast territories, often leading to a fight between the two sides, until one side is defeated and flees or dies altogether.

At this time, if the adventurers enter the central area, the danger level will be several times higher than usual.

As for the last outlying area, it is mainly composed of two major parts, the Oasis and the Gobi, most of which have been occupied by the Kingdom of the Dead.

As a result, the indigenous people in the desert can only survive on oases, and if the water source of one of the oases is depleted, then it often means that many people will die.

If the lord who rules this oasis doesn't want to die, then the only way to rob other people's desert oases is to rob them.

The oases in the outer areas have been divided and ruled by the oasis lords, and over the years, there have been oases dried up, and new oases have been discovered, which has led to constant wars between the oasis lords, and in order to compete for limited resources, wars have broken out, and this can be said to be one of the most chaotic places on the continent.

Why is the desert oasis so messy? It all started a long time ago.

Hundreds of years ago, the entire outer oasis of the Great Sand Sea of Death was unified, and the once-prosperous desert kingdom even dared to compete with the undead kingdom, but a hundred years ago, a large sandstorm rarely seen in history completely buried this desert kingdom.

The sandstorm that lasted for several months flooded a large number of oases, and many desert natives died in this sandstorm, and the remaining desert natives relied on the remaining oases to survive, and when the sandstorm ended, the huge desert kingdom was left with less than one-tenth of the original population.

The king of the desert kingdom was also removed from the throne by the sandfolk who had lost their homes, and many of them believed that the king's ferocity caused the sandstorm.

In addition, the capital oasis is the largest oasis in the entire Death Sands Waiwai area, and the greedy nobles of the desert kingdom have intensified the people's anger and united to capture the capital oasis, completely kicking the desert kingdom into history.

Later, the nobles of the Desert Kingdom may have wanted to unify all the oases again and recreate the glory of the Desert Kingdom because of the uneven distribution of spoils. In short, they began to fight with each other, and until now, the nobles of these desert kingdoms are still at war.

Chen Yue was not interested in the small fights between the oasis lords, he wanted to cross the Great Sand Sea of Death as soon as possible and go to the realm of the undead to adventure, which was what he was most interested in.
