Chapter 4: Exec
In the yellow sand, the crisp and melodious sound of camel bells came from the end of the horizon, this is a caravan with twelve members, most of whom are mercenaries. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Although there are only twelve members, they are very flexible and easy to move, but the number of people is too small after all, so the caravan is still cautious.
The caravan had a high bounty for recruiting mercenaries, but given the purpose of their trip to an extremely dangerous area: Sai, a place where people eat people and don't spit out bones, few people dared to take risks, and only ten scattered people dared to take the risk to follow, not because of anything else, but because the share of the bounty was unbelievable.
There were twelve people in the caravan, but there were only four camels, and the front and rear camels had a straight pole on their backs, very thin and not long, and there was a man as light as a swallow on it, and if they found anything abnormal, they would blow the whistle immediately, and the people below would know that there was danger. The eight mercenaries on foot each carried a small box, not heavy, sealed, and it was said that this was the cargo this time.
In the middle of the two camels sat a man, the owner of the caravan and the mercenary's mercenary. And on foot
"Everyone pay attention, if this commission can be successfully completed, I will not treat my brothers badly!"
The person sitting on the second camel, that is, the boss of this caravan, spoke, stepping on the land of death of "Sai", which made this old fritter who had been in business for many years feel that his body couldn't help but tremble, in Shurima for so many years, he had heard the stories of "Sai" were all about horror, monsters, and death.
If it weren't for the price given by the client that made it difficult for him to refuse, he wouldn't have taken the risk, and at the same time, he didn't worry that the other party wouldn't honor it, because the client was from a nobleman in Noxus.
"Big boss, look what it is."
Suddenly, a sharp-eyed mercenary pointed to the yellow sand on the right side of the caravan and asked, and for a moment, almost everyone's eyes looked over.
"Hey, that's like... The shape of a hole? ā
Someone scratched their heads suspiciously, this is very unusual, this area is full of yellow sand, how can there be potholes?
But the hole in front of him made this caravan feel a chill down its spine, how could the yellow sand form a hole?
"This place is not good for long! Speed up! ā
The big boss spoke, and this hole gave the big boss a bad feeling, because the big boss knew that the area of "Sai" was only named because of an endemic creature in Shurima in ancient times, Axey.
And one of the special abilities of a creature like Axy is to make holes.
All around, there was a yellow world in his eyes, and the big boss broke out in a cold sweat, and he felt even more urgent in his heart, could it be that he had entered the territory of Exai?
But the whistles on the two camels in front and behind did not blow, and nothing unusual was found, which made the big boss feel a little relieved, but the sense of urgency was still not eliminated, and the big boss reminded everyone to speed up.

"Did you hear any strange noises?"
One of the mercenaries asked the other mercenary next to him.
"No, I just feel that the yellow sand is shaking, am I too tired?"
The mercenary replied and muttered at the same time, it seems that he is tired and hallucinating, and he must find a place to relax after completing this task.
Just as the mercenary was thinking about those things that were out of bounds, the whistle blew very quickly, which made the mercenary wake up from a dream, it turned out that there was really danger! At the same time, there was a shiver, something that could make the yellow sand tremble, could it be blocked by manpower?
"What's going on?"
The big boss roared, and sure enough, the kind of righteous lord who gave himself a sense of urgency came!
"Blame... Monster! ā
The whistle stammered nervously, if the yellow sand is regarded as the ocean, then what the whistle sees is a deep-sea giant shark! Although you can't see the full picture of the monster, just revealing a sharp black fin is enough to make people feel terrified! Because it's not the ocean, it's yellow sand!
"It's over..."
The big boss is a little unwilling, at this moment, the big boss doesn't even need to give orders, the mercenaries have already begun to run away desperately, the hole in the yellow sand, the black fins, can survive under the yellow sand, this is Axe undoubtedly!
The yellow sand trembled more and more, and the people of this caravan became more and more frightened, no one knew when death would come, maybe in the next moment!
The black fins seemed to swim in the water, and they quickly approached the caravan, and the "buzzing" murmur was like a requiem of death, and everyone's hairs exploded.
Camels, people, and Axy were all running rapidly, and the yellow sand began to roll up in the wind, and the gravel began to dance, and the yellow sand really covered the sky.
There were two frightened mercenaries who panicked and lost their physical strength, and they picked up the weapon in their hands and threatened the owner of the caravan.
In the eyes of the people in this caravan, the big boss and the second boss are just two unarmed ordinary people, and even the second boss thinks so, but no one knows that the big boss actually knows a little magic, which is the reason why the big boss dares to hire mercenaries, the magic is not strong, but it is enough to deter Xiaoxiao.
However, the big boss did not resist, and obediently gave up the camel, because the big boss knew that at this time he could only rely on himself, and the camel had already begun to feel fear, and the constant trembling would only be a drag!
The big boss got off the camel and ran all the way, and its speed was no less than that of a camel! Because the second boss did not obey, he wanted to play prestige, and he couldn't see the situation clearly, thinking that he could retire the mercenaries, but he was killed on the spot.
When the big boss saw the second boss like this, he couldn't stop sneering, saying that he was the second boss, but he was just a rich wronged boss. The relationship with the big boss is not deep, but the relationship of interests.

Suddenly, the feet of the two mercenaries, who were relatively slow, trembled violently, and a black creature jumped out of the yellow sand, and the yellow sand around it had sunk in, and people with sharp eyes would find that there was a hole underneath.
The black creature is a giant monster, tens of meters high, with no eyes, no nose, only a disgusting bloody mouth on its entire face, sharp teeth, very developed and thick limbs, and armor-like scales like barbs!
"Save...."
Before the two mercenaries finished speaking, they were tripped by the trembling yellow sand, and the monster's two thick front legs closed at will, and the two instantly became meat patties, and their sharp teeth swallowed both of them without chewing!
The scalps of all the remaining living people in the caravan are going to explode! The hair seems to weigh a thousand pounds, and it will tear the scalp apart! Everyone is cold from head to toe, can they really survive in the face of this kind of monster?
"Sure enough...!"
The big boss looked at the monster and felt a lot of pressure, it was an Exai who didn't know how long he had lived!!
The big boss's whole face was distorted, and he felt that he shouldn't have come here to take risks! It's useless to regret it now, I just hope to escape! The big boss took out a small box from his arms, this is the real goods, and I don't know what the big boss is in, because of this, the big boss hopes that there can be something in this box to let himself escape!
"No matter! It's better to be hunted down than to die now! ā
After a tangled struggle in his heart, the big boss gritted his teeth and prepared to open this box!
"Boom !!!!"
A black wave of energy mixed with yellow sand was like the arrival of death, knocking the big boss and the remaining mercenaries to the ground! The huge impact force made the people who were hit hurt all over their bodies, and their bones were about to fall apart! The mercenaries crawled and rolled, looking at Axy who was getting closer and closer behind them with frightened faces, and suddenly a few of them were so frightened that they peed their pants, and even one of them had fainted! You don't have to look at it, the fainted mercenaries are doomed to death, but I don't know if it's as food for Axie or as a buried bone under the yellow sand.
"Damn it!"
The big boss looked at the small box that had been covered by the yellow sand that had rolled to the ground, and his heart slowly sank to the bottom! Is there not even the last bit of hope? It's really not a way to live!
The shockwave emitted by Axie just now seemed to be filled with a strange energy, which not only made the big boss feel that he was being stared at under his nose, but also knocked the box to the ground, and the yellow sand that was shot up slowly covered the box.
"No!"
The big boss stretched out his hand, feeling desperate in his heart, the shock wave just now made the big boss's leg hurt and made it difficult to move, which is also better, because now except for the big boss and Axie, all the mercenaries have been killed by Axie and devoured in one bite!
"I can only try!"
Use your last hole card and have the attitude of giving it a try, and make a last fight. This is the common denominator of all dying people, in order to fight for a glimmer of life.
The big boss took out a small hexagonal stone, which didn't look special, but it made countless people look like a treasure, because it was a rune! This is also an important factor in the use of magic by the big bosses!
Runes are divided into sigils, engravings, sigils, and essences, but as long as it is a good rune, the increase in magic is huge!
The rune in the big boss's hand was red, but it was very dark and a little tattered, apparently just a rudimentary mark!
The red rune is marked by two bows and arrows, which is a primary attack mark that can make attacks more powerful and increase the power of magic!
However, when the boss was about to use his magic to fight to the death, Axy had disappeared from the sight of the boss! The yellow sand no longer trembled, and everything seemed to have calmed down! But the big boss doesn't dare to act rashly! There was no movement for a long time!
"Run.. Ran away? I, I survived? ā
The big boss looked ecstasy, tears of joy, looked left and right, slapped the sand under him with both hands, and then hugged his legs with both hands, lowered his head and cried!
"It's all right! I'm fine! ā
After confirming that there was no movement, the big boss just wanted to shout hard, but he was afraid of being targeted by Axey again, the big boss kissed the rune, and the old face was about to squeeze together, thinking that this was really Lao Tzu's lucky star! I don't know why Axie let him go, but it's always okay, isn't it?
The big boss is lying in the yellow sand, thinking about nothing, although Axey is gone, but how can he survive in the vast desert without supplies?
But at this time, the big boss just wants to have a good rest, and the crisis just now makes the big boss physically and mentally exhausted! He didn't even care about the box, but just held the rune tightly, which could give the big boss a little sense of security.
It was at this moment that the comfortable lying of the big boss became the last posture in his life!
The remote Axy appeared quietly, swallowing the big boss with a mouthful of yellow sand! To death, the big boss didn't understand why Axy reappeared! Didn't you let yourself go? Gone?
The big boss will never know, it's just a way for Exer to tease his prey......
