Chapter 250: Mirage?
In the desert, the scavenger carried a bone knife and continued on his way. Mo Lao has already gone online to dispense medicine to Youyou Jingran, so that You Jingran will not be so uncomfortable in the game. This relieved the scavenger. The scavenger of the refined iron was handed over to the trigger to do.
The so-called refined iron is actually a piece of iron that has been forged a hundred times repeatedly. The essence left behind by removing the impurities inside is called Hundred Refined Iron. However, the quality of the refined iron trained by different people is different, and this matter is watched by Li Lao, and the scavenger doesn't have to worry much.
Therefore, the main task of the scavenger now is to find the ancient city in the desert and obtain the jade pendant named by Li Lao from it. Then collect the information of the blood python and the white rhinoceros, and when the time comes, get the eyes of the blood python and the horn of the white rhinoceros, and upgrade the senior hunter medal again. The scavenger had a faint feeling that there would be a texture change when he upgraded the Advanced Hunter Medal this time.
With the Cloak of War Blood, the heat of the outside world will not cause any trouble to the scavenger. So he walked fast and climbed over a sand dune. The scavenger's eyes lit up a hundred meters in front of him, where a green bush grew, and in the middle of the grove was a small lake, an oasis called the source of life in the desert.
Seeing that the oasis scavenger didn't rush down directly, he washed his body well. Instead, the inner force poured into his eyes and looked around the oasis. Several places with a slight difference in the color of the sand were noticed by the scavenger.
Sand Lizard: One of the endemic species in the desert, it preys on other monsters for a living. Level: E5 Star, Skill: Sandstorm.
"It turned out to be a sand lizard. If it weren't for the Night Pupil, they might have been ambushed. Seeing the information of the sand lizard, the scavenger said in his heart.
Sand lizards are recognized as masters of camouflage in the desert, they can bury their bodies under the yellow sand, determine the location of the monster beast through the yellow sand vibration caused by the walking of other monsters on the surface of the yellow sand, and then give the prey a fatal blow. If the prey is too strong. They will emit a small sandstorm, covering a range of more than ten meters in a cloud of sand and dust, obscuring the enemy's view. Whether they retreat or attack again while their prey's line of sight is obscured depends on the situation.
Because they bury their bodies in the sand, they are difficult to spot by their prey. Each kill has a high chance of success, and he is one of the 'killers' in the desert. If it weren't for the Eyes of the Night, no matter how clever the scavengers were. You will only feel danger because of the sixth sense that you have developed between life and death, and you will not find where the sand lizard is hiding.
From Li Lao, I learned a little about the use of the pupil technique, although the scavenger still didn't know how to cultivate the pupil of the dark night. But the use of the Night Pupil has been raised by more than one notch. For example, in the past, the scavenger would only use the pupil of the night to see the differences between things, as well as the subtle links on the monster's body, so as to determine where the monster's weaknesses were.
And now that the scavenger uses the pupil of the night, he can faintly see some breath. These seen breaths may feel a little ethereal, but they are real. For example, sand lizards hide under the yellow sand. The scavengers didn't steal the clairvoyant eye, and it was difficult to spot their existence.
But every creature is constantly exuding its breath. To put it scientifically, it emits a magnetic field outward. These magnetic fields are invisible to ordinary people, not even the eyes of previous insight. But now you can see it with the Night Pupil.
Spotting where the sand lizard was hiding, the scavenger dropped his backpack on the ground. Then he walked towards the place where a sand lizard was, carrying a bone knife. Feeling the vibration of the yellow sand, the aura released by the sand lizard changed slightly, and it seemed to be ready to attack at any time.
When the scavenger walked to a distance of less than five meters from the sand lizard. The scavenger slammed his feet on the ground, jumped up, and the bone knife in his hand spewed out inches, and pounced on the sand lizard. The sand lizard, which buries its body in the ground, cannot see the scavenger's movements at all.
It only felt that the approaching prey suddenly caused a strong vibration of the yellow sand. It tenses and prepares to attack its prey if it gets any closer. But the yellow sand shook strongly once, but there was no sound. This made the body of the sand lizard that was about to attack pause, and it was a little puzzled as to where the prey that kept walking towards it was going.
Poof! Just when the sand lizard was at a loss because of the sudden loss of its prey. The scavenger who jumped into the air with his feet up and head down, the bone knife in his hand burst out with a brilliant light, and then stabbed into the yellow sand below, the bone knife was all submerged in the sand, and even the arm of the scavenger's right hand was halfway into the bone knife.
The sand stabbed by the scavenger twisted as if there was some monster inside trying to turn over. But the sand trembled a few times before it was silent. The scavenger crouched on the ground and pulled the bone knife out. Half of the front of the bone knife has blood on the top of the blade. A somewhat dry energy was absorbed by the High Hunter Medal and entered the scavenger's body.
After the Hunter's Medal is upgraded, the amount of energy absorbed by the Energy Drain skill is also increased. If the Hunter's Medal was able to absorb 5% of the monster's energy without killing a monster before, then it is 10% now. In this way, the speed at which the scavengers practiced their martial arts was greatly increased.
The scavenger who knew the hidden location of the sand lizard in the same way as he did was crucified the five-headed sand lizard directly into the ground. After slaying the last sand lizard. The scavenger released the mech. The mecha's large hand pulls the yellow sand off the sand lizard's body, and then pulls the sand lizard out of the sand by its tail, claws, or head.
The five sand lizards were no exception, and all of them died from a sharp blade piercing their heads. If a player sees a scavenger kill a sand lizard like this, their jaws will drop. Because the sand lizard does not sneak up on the player in the desert, the player is already Amitabha. Who can take out the sand lizard anti-sneak attack?
Sand lizards look a bit like crocodiles, but their skin is coarser than crocodile skin. The smallest of the five sand lizards is more than 5 meters long, and the largest is 8 meters. The sharp teeth of the adult's palms in the big mouth flashed with cold light, and the prey that was attacked by it could often be bitten directly on the head with one bite.
However, although the skin of the sand lizard is rough, it is a good material, and after tanning, it is light in texture, fire-resistant, high-temperature resistant, and has good defense, which is a good material for making inner armor. In addition to the skin of the sand lizard, the sand lizard spar is also a rarer material.
The sand lizard's spar is not the legendary demon beast's inner dan, or the monster's crystal nucleus. It's something like a cow's gallstone bezoar. When the sand lizard hunts its prey, it instantly emerges from the bottom of the yellow sand, often swallowing the prey along with some of the yellow sand.
Although its stomach acid is very strong, even the sand can melt and absorb together. But in the sand, or in the prey it hunts, there will be more or less some substances that cannot be melted. Most of these substances are excreted from the body with the excretion of sand lizards.
However, a very small part of it will remain in the body of the sand lizard, and over time, it will combine with the solution in the sand lizard's body to form a sand lizard crystal that looks like a stone. These hedrons have a high medicinal value, and adding some to them when forging equipment can greatly improve the permeability of weapons and equipment to internal forces. Therefore, a sand lizard crystal the size of a baby's fist is sold for as much as 10,000 gold coins, and it is often unmarketable.
"Good luck." Peeling off the skin of the sand lizard, the scavenger disembowels the five sand lizards, and finally found two spars the size of a baby's fist in the body of the smallest sand lizard, and rubbed the spars in the yellow sand to rub the mucus off the outside. The scavenger took a small pocket from his backpack and filled it with the hedrons.
There is a great deal of randomness in whether or not there is a spar in the body of a sand lizard, after all, it is impossible for every sand lizard to get stones. Therefore, whether or not you can get a spar from the body of the lizard, the luck component accounts for a large proportion. Being able to get two hedrons from a sand lizard, the scavenger was lucky today.
Having dealt with the five sand lizards that were hunting near the oasis, the scavenger rested near the oasis to recharge the water bag with water. The scavenger continued in the same direction that the leopard had given him for the orcs.
However, it is difficult to leave any traces when walking in the sand, and as soon as the wind blows, the footprints will be covered by the yellow sand, and there will be no trace at all. So whether the orcs can be found, the scavenger didn't care much. It just so happens that the scavengers also need to keep going deep into the desert to find the ancient city, whether they can meet the orcs and know what they are doing is just a stopover. As he walked forward, he slashed the demon beast. The scavenger tried to use the instruments of radio communication, but none of them succeeded.
"I don't know what the fat man is doing again, the equipment has not been successfully debugged for such a long time." The scavenger shook his head, looked up at the spectacular desert sunset, and prepared to find a place to spend the night. But retracting his gaze, the scavenger was stunned. Then he closed his eyes and looked ahead again, and was stunned again.
"Mirage?" The scavenger's eyes widened, and not far from the scavenger, about a kilometer away, where a city was sitting. With the scavenger's current eyesight, he could vaguely see the soldiers on the city wall shaking and the crowd walking back and forth at the city gate.
The scavenger could be sure that before he set his eyes on the sunset. There was definitely no such city in front of him, but now that this city was sitting in front of him, how could he not surprise the scavenger.
"Let's take a look." After making sure that he was not dazzled, the scavenger frowned, and then walked towards the city in the distance. (To be continued......)
