Somewhere in the desert of Central Asia.

In the scorching heat of the boundless desert, the scorching sun fell straight down, the ground was bare, there was no cover at all, and a wave of heat came in, making people feel that even the throat used to breathe was hot.

Anyone who has walked in the desert knows that in the desert, in addition to the terrible high temperature and dehydration caused by lack of water and food, there is also the violent temperature difference between morning and evening, if you do not do a good job of protection, it is enough to freeze a person to death.

In the midst of the towering sand dunes, a caravan is slowly galloping, from far to near, like a small ribbon, looming in the flying yellow sand, this is a caravan heading to the southern sand city, they must find a good camp before night falls.

More than 30 desert boats formed a huge caravan, each camel on its back, on both sides of the carrying of several bulging suitcases, leisurely in the sand sea, not slow or hurried.

"Captain Du Lang, will our speed be too slow? The man who spoke was a merchant named Ba's, who was one of the richest men in the region, and who had made his fortune as a desert merchant in his early years, and who had eaten as a man of his own life. It stands to reason that he doesn't need to interfere in today's business, but this business is different, because the goods transported along the way are too valuable, if it is not good, it is the consequence of bankruptcy, therefore, in addition to the several bodyguards he personally brought with him, he specially hired the most famous local wolf-killing mercenary group as the escort team this time.

"Lord Bayis, don't be impatient, a few days ago I heard that a lot of strange beasts suddenly appeared in the desert on the border, and there were accidents on several safe routes, which made many mercenary groups panic, although this road is farther, but the security is also higher. "The person who spoke was none other than Du Lang, the leader of the experienced wolf-killing mercenary group, who was nicknamed Wild Wolf.

The Wolf Slayer Mercenary Regiment is the most reputable and powerful mercenary group in several nearby towns, with more than 100 men under its command, well-equipped and powerful.

This time to escort, Du Lang sent more than 20 people, which is enough to see the importance of this mission.

A pair of fierce eyes swept coldly not far ahead, revealing incomparable perseverance and mature courage, a man in his early nines looked like a violent beast, and his long-tempered flesh exuded a huge oppression, making the people in the corps inevitably secretly worried when facing this regiment commander.

The remaining twenty or so people were dressed in uniform yellow-brown camouflage uniforms, a dozen or so of them were armed with modified firearms similar to AKs, covered with brown yellow cloth, and the rest of them were holding sabers and long-handled blades, but no matter what kind of blades, they all had a strange red light.

The seemingly strange equipment makes this group of people look extraordinarily eye-catching.

Not far away, a light horse galloped forward, but under the shape was not a camel, but a strange four-legged crimson beast, this beast was a fiery red color, sharp claws and teeth, dragging a transparent fire tail like a long whip, looking extremely fierce, and looking like a huge sinister.

The person riding on the back of the beast was the second leader of the wolf killing mercenary group, nicknamed the one-eyed wolf.

"Commander, the front has been explored, and there is no trace of other strange beasts. Hantier, who wore a black blindfold, replied, without the slightest mood swing in his tone.

The group continued to move towards their original goal, resting ten miles ahead. ”

Hearing the word rest, everyone was refreshed, and their feet could not speed up a few steps.

"Tsk, no matter how many times I watch it, I think the red flame thief in the second master is handsome, and I will get one one day. In the long marching procession, Tie Ding, a new member of the group, said with envy.

"You kid thinks beautifully, there are only eight or nine of this kind of red flame on our land, one is in the hands of the deputy head of the group, one of the head of the group bought it and gave it to the eldest lady, and the rest of the few were robbed by other mercenary groups, and the Cobra mercenary group alone bought four, no, it should be said that it was half bought and half robbed. Besides, that Chi Yan Qi can have the strength of three spins, and only the head of the regiment and these powerful people can control it, do you want it, unless you can become the deputy head of the regiment or ......?"

"Isn't it just thinking about it, I can't afford to mess with the eldest lady. Tie Ding understood, stuck out his tongue busily, and changed the subject, "How can we make a lot of money on this trip?" ”

"That's right, I heard that this rich man of Bayis made a bold move, so I don't think he will treat us badly. By the way, do you guess what we're shipping this time?"

"I don't know, I just heard that the things to be transported this time are very valuable, and it is said that only the deputy head and the head of the regiment know what it is?"

"Is it gold?" asked a member of the group who couldn't bear it on the other side.

"Tsk, as far as your vision goes, all the gold and gems in this world are out of breath now, and now the most precious thing on the market is called Blood Source Crystal, have you ever heard of it?"

"Blood Crystal, what is that, it sounds similar to Blood Crystal. Tie Ding asked curiously.

"Let's just say that you are lonely and unheard, that blood source crystal ......" The mercenary man was just about to speak, and out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the figure galloping behind him, and quickly closed his mouth.

"Stay vigilant, don't chew your tongue when you carry out your mission!" Behind him, a figure riding a red flame swept away from everyone, like a flame flying from the air.

"Yes!" everyone hurriedly cheered up and obediently shut their mouths.

On the fiery red red body, a fluttering red danced from the air, like a blood-red red glow in the sky, and a graceful figure loomed in the fiery red, constantly passing from the back of the camel caravan, constantly attracting the men behind him to look sideways.

The speed of this flame was extremely fast, and in an instant, it had rushed to Du Lang's side, and with a crisp and neat and chic movement, the figure was slightly certain, and the red flame under him immediately stopped and slowed down.

Seeing this figure like a beautiful red glow on the horizon, Du Lang, who had a straight face, smiled with relief.

"Dad, there's nothing unusual in the rear, it's just that most people are a little tired after walking too long in this weather. "The person who came was Du Lang's eldest daughter - Du Xin'er.

Dressed in a red flame-colored gauze robe, with a delicate jade buckle tied around the waist, the willow waist is gently tied, lining off its delicate figure; the long hair is like a black waterfall hanging down to the waist, but there is no trace of dust from the wind and sand, and a plum hairpin is inserted in the simple bun, which looks clean and neat; a pair of brown eyes, embellished on the white delicate face, the high tip of the nose, slightly upturned at a wonderful angle; different from the yellowish snow-white skin of the Orientals, with the delicate three-dimensional face, this is a perfect fusion of oriental elegance and exoticism; under the snow-white jaw, the first thing that catches the eye is the dazzling white snow on the chest, bulging very high under the backdrop of clothes, and then it is a very perfect inheritance of the proud figure of Westerners, concave and convex, the fiery red long skirt is draped on the red flame, and the heroic and elegant red makeup flutters in the wind.

"Xin'er, it's hard for you to go with you this time. Du Lang looked at the daughter in front of him and gave birth to a trace of love.

"Father, this is the outside, if I am in charge of the wolf killing mercenary group in the future, I will naturally have to accumulate more experience. Glancing at Hantier in front of her, Du Xin'er said without hesitation.

"I'm still embarrassed for you, let one of your daughter's families show up. Although Du Lang is not pedantic, he inevitably blames himself a little for letting his daughter take charge of the wolf killing mercenary group.

"The daughter's family, or go home to embroider, and then find a good family to marry, so walking on the battlefield, doesn't it make your father worry. The deputy head of the regiment on the side, Han Tieer, suddenly spoke, "The mercenary regiment is not a place to play at home, but it is a life of licking blood on the tip of a knife, even if you are the daughter of the regiment commander, if you have no actual achievements, no one will obey you." ”

"Hantiel, say less. Hearing this, Du Lang's expression was blank, and he really had a headache about the contradiction between Hantier and Du Xin'er.

One is the second leader of the Corps, and the other is his own baby daughter, so it's not right to help.

"The front is the foothold, let's hurry up, Hantier, you go to the front and take a look, everything is careful. ”

"Understood. Seeing the head of the regiment speak, Han Tie'er was also simply, patted the red flame under him, and glanced at Du Xin'er, "No matter what, at least I don't see your qualifications to become the head of the regiment now." ”

Looking at Han Tie'er's departing figure, Du Lang shook his head helplessly: "Hmph, this kid, he still has this stinky temper after more than ten years." ”

"Uncle Han has always looked at the big picture, so naturally I don't blame him, and on the other hand, what he said is indeed the truth. "Du Xin'er is not half discouraged, to become the leader of the wolf killing mercenary group, talent alone is far from enough.

"It's here!"

As the sun set down, everyone finally arrived at their ideal camp.

"The ground here is relatively hard, so it is unlikely that sandworms will come here, and the rocky mountain on the side can also form a natural barrier against sand wolves. ”

For Hantier's judgment, Du Lang has always trusted him.

"Very well, let everyone hurry up and set up their tents before sunset, and set up a defensive line around the perimeter. ”

"Yes!" everyone replied in unison.

The desert night came very quickly, it was still like day, but before everyone had time to get used to it, it had already turned into night.

There are a total of six people per night shift. Tie Ding happened to be on duty tonight, and he was patrolling with his seniors at the moment.

"There are no lights in this desert, and the starry sky is like a curtain, much brighter than in the city. As he was talking, a cold wind struck violently, straight into Tie Ding's neck, and he immediately shivered.

"That is, there are so many lights in the city, and it is still foggy when you look up, how can you see it. ”

The two of them were holding each other without saying a word, and the seniors were even more excited together, pulling up their previous experiences, and suddenly, Tie Ding was suddenly stunned, and tightly grabbed his companion next to him and said, "Then, what is that?"

On a high rocky mountain five or six hundred meters away, a huge snow-white figure flashed, and under the bright moonlight, the pure white hair fluttered slightly with the wind, like a night elf.

The majestic cold gaze was full of the condescending majesty of the king, which made Tie Ding and the seniors shudder suddenly.

"Yes, there are ghosts !!"

For a while, a high-pitched shout alarmed the entire camp.
