Chapter 188: The Unlucky and Lucky Caravan
Bang bang bang......
One arm after another stretched out of the ground, more than a dozen flesh skeletons grabbed those hands and dragged them out with all their might, and at the same time, the relatively gentle sand protruded, and the sand brushed down in all directions, and a cylindrical thing rose.
Angela stood up, not expecting them to actually bring back the desert worms, because they came back too early.
In the next scene, Angela's heart chuckled.
I saw the head of the desert worm come out, and then ...... below. A burnt black appeared underneath, and Angela had a sense of foreboding.
Sure enough, the flesh skeletons dragged or dragged hard, and Angela was dumbfounded.
I saw that traces of corrosion began to appear below the head of the desert worm, and then the further down the corrosion, the more serious the corrosion, and finally, including the corroded parts, added up to only 1/5 of the entire desert worm.
And the place where Angela's sword hit was at least 1/3 of the place where the desert worm was, and such a large area was all corroded.
Angela slapped her head, and her whole person was like a lightning strike.
That's when she remembered that although the desert worm was highly resistant, it was negative in its resistance to corrosion.
And the poison in the black sword in Angela's hand is extremely corrosive to flesh and blood, so the desert worm is sad.
Therefore, it is estimated that the general and the 34 flesh skeletons did not fight the desert worm at all, they only encountered such a section on the way and brought it back.
At 1/5 of the desert worms swung wildly, trying to break free from the skeleton's hands.
Desert worms are the same as slimes and sludge monsters, but the desert worms are not as strong as slimes in splitting and breeding, but they can use the ability of splitting and breeding, but they can survive if they are cut into two pieces.
However, this section of the desert worm is dead, its body is too badly corroded, and there are too many things missing, plus it is exposed to the ground, in such a cold night, it is estimated that it will not be long before it will become a corpse.
Tell the general that the flesh of the desert worm is theirs, but be sure to leave the skin and fat behind.
Angela then eats wolf meat.
The meat of the desert wolf was not very tasty, it was very woody, Angela hurriedly ate it, and fell asleep.
The flesh and bones surrounded and consciously helped Angela block the wind.
When I woke up, the flames had been extinguished, and there were flesh and bones that had gained a circle of fat around me.
Beside him, there was a 1/5 empty shell of the desert worm, and the flesh and blood inside had been stripped of by this group of skeletons.
"Let's go, go home."
Angela looked at the stars in the sky, shook her head, and said.
Back in the castle of the ancient battlefield, Angela locked herself in the house, still processing the materials.
The blood in the sand stained with the blood of the desert worms was extracted from a dozen jars, turning from a dozen jars into three jars.
The fat is broken down and placed in two large vats.
And that skin, made into a gray cloak by Angela, was draped over her body.
The skin of the desert worm is warm in winter and cool in summer, and in this desert, Angela can live a little more comfortably.
And the skin of the desert worm is very tough and wear-resistant, and at 50 yards away, it can withstand the shots of some strong bows, crawl and roll, and can also be used for a long time.
As for the teeth, Angela made a short sword and distributed it to the skeletons to keep their equipment from being so shabby.
While immersed in the experiment and losing weight day and night, Angela did not know how lucky he was.
Tornadoes are rare in the desert, however, but not too rare in the Dark Ages. But if ten tornadoes appear in one go, it is not a common rarity.
And the tornado that met Angela, after passing by Angela, met with his nine brothers and sisters.
A sad caravan survived in such a desperate environment.
In the Dark Ages, caravans were extinct in most places, but in the desert, because the species here were too poor, coupled with the hot weather, too much direct sunlight, resulting in a rich light, so that there were not many dark creatures born, and most of them were quickly extinguished, and they could not be affected at all, so the caravans were still relatively prosperous.
However, the caravan was unfortunate, as they saw ten tornadoes in one go.
They were lucky, because at that moment, they seemed to be favored by the gods, although they were embarrassed, although they were disgraced, and even swept into the air, but they miraculously survived, and even only three people and five camels escaped from the large army, and the goods did not lose much, and the most important water, was also saved.
But they are still unfortunate because they are lost.
After crossing the sand dunes like waves one after another, the ground was no longer full of sand, but there was more solid earth, and the vegetation became abundant.
Occasionally, small grasses that grow with difficulty, cacti covered in thorns, huge stones, and sand dunes turn into hills.
However, Alikala was full of despair and despair.
He is the leader of the caravan, and the most important water in the caravan is controlled by him, so only he knows that there is not much water, and this water simply cannot last today, if you can't find the oasis as soon as possible, then the consequences can be imagined.
His legs had lost sensation, his back had been soaked with sweat, his skin was tingling, his lips were dry, and his eyes were full of panic.
But he couldn't show it, because he was the leader of this caravan and the spiritual pillar of the 56ers.
His old face was full of determination, and he tried hard to show that he was full of confidence, and from time to time he opened his mouth to encourage everyone and not let everyone despair.
"Uncle, uncle, look there!"
Young Ireland cheered, pointing to the left front and shouting, "Look there, uncle!" ”
Someone shouted: "It's an oasis!" ”
"Wait!" Alikala raised his hand and shouted, trying to keep his eyes open, sweat running from the corners of his eyes, falling from his eyelashes, his eyes did not blink, and after a while, he waved his hand weakly: "It's an illusion." ”
"No, uncle, I don't mean the illusion, it's the illusion below, you see, there's a castle and there are people there."
Alikala looked shocked, looked in the direction pointed by his nephew, and sure enough, he saw the castle, which was easy to ignore because it was too far away.
But Ireland was the most perceptive of them all, so only Ireland noticed.
Underneath the castle, there are small white dots shaking.
There are castles, there are people, that means, there is water!!
Alikara was in good spirits, and suddenly her waist was no longer sore, her legs were no longer painful, and her whole body was full of energy, and she felt that she could kill a tiger.
"Ready." Alikala turned sharply and walked to the side of the camel, pulled out the long contradiction, and his hoarse voice spread, his eyes swept over the people behind him, and he shouted, "To live." ”
"Oh!" The people cheered and drew their scimitar spears.
Merchants in the desert are sometimes robbers.
To trade in the desert is to rob and be robbed, devoured and devoured, and among them, which one is not ruthless and has blood on his hands.
"Don't blame me, blame yourselves." Alikala thought to herself and flipped onto her camel.
In the desert, the importance of water is self-evident, and its value can be comparable to that of gold, and sometimes even more valuable than human life.
For the sake of water, killing a handful of people is nothing.
