"A distress signal?" Yue Zhanfei hurriedly clicked on the red exclamation mark, and a few seconds of audio immediately jumped on the screen.

"This is the No. 5 investigation team of the Dawn Base, our investigation vehicle was damaged in the sandstorm, and some of its functions were damaged beyond repair, so we can't return to the base. If there is a team that receives this distress call, please help us! ”

The man's voice stopped abruptly, and the audio ended. There were no other sounds in the entire audio, and no cacophony from the environment or plague species.

"We're going to save them, and it's not far away." Yue Zhanfei turned to the crowd in the carriage. Since they had received the audio, it was their duty to help their colleagues in distress.

Wu Qi nodded, and Pi Chunsheng said "um".

Yue Zhanfei turned the head of the car and drove the investigation vehicle to the southeast at a speed of 180 kilometers per hour. The wasteland in the southeast is also a sea of yellow sand, and the investigation vehicle has been driving, and the end of the horizon has always been yellow sand, and it seems that there is no end in sight.

The electronic map positioning and navigation of the survey vehicle continued to inform Yue Zhanfei of the current location of the target survey vehicle. When the positioning and navigation showed that there were less than two kilometers between the two, Yue Zhanfei and the others finally saw the small car shadow standing on the distant horizon.

"High distance, reconnaissance."

Wu Qi patted Gao Yuan's shoulder.

Gao Yuan let out a "hmm", then took out the electromagnetic energy sniper rifle, adjusted the scope multiplier to 20 times, and carefully observed the small shadow in the distance. In the scope, Gao Yuan clearly saw the true face of the little car shadow.

It was a heavy field vehicle painted with "5" on the side, and its four wheels were parked motionless, and the body was covered with scars in the shape of sharp claws of the plague species; Its surroundings were empty, and it was not besieged by the plague species,

"The target should be safe, and the ...... cannot be seen"

As soon as Gao Yuan said this, his words suddenly froze.

Wu Qi noticed Gao Yuan's pause and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"What's that...... Boss, there are no small or medium-sized plague species around the target research vehicle, but there is an oversized desert lizard lying on the sand one or two hundred meters away from them! Gao Yuan didn't lower his voice, and what he said could be heard by the whole car.

"Show me." Wu Qi said calmly.

Gao Yuan handed the 20x scope to Wu Qi, Wu Qi picked up the scope and looked in the direction Gao Yuan pointed, and through the faint yellow sand and dust, he saw a behemoth with an extremely large appearance!

The behemoth was a magnified desert lizard, with no scales on its back, scaly limbs, and an unusually long, snake-like curved tail dragging at the end of its torso. The desert lizard is just the name of this animal in the era of civilization, the normal sand lizard is very small, and the body length will not exceed 14 cm, but this huge sand lizard, Wu Qi knew at a glance that its body length was definitely more than 100 meters, because the vertical height of its torso was twice that of the survey vehicle!

The sand lizard also has a cone-shaped horn that looks diagonally upward, like the horn of a unicorn, and is so old that the surface looks like a fossil that has been piled up for tens of thousands of years.

Wu Qi saw this horn, and communicated the "revelation of the wilderness god" with the mentality of trying, and the information of this "sand lizard" immediately came from the other end of the road, Wu Qi did not expect that there was a "race" in this behemoth.

"That's the desert dragon lizard, the desert dragon lizard is scarce in this world, and only haunts the vast desert. The peculiarity of their race is that each individual has a powerful "oversize" ability and a large dragon horn on their head. ”

"What's so special about this giant dragon horn? Is it a mutant organ? Yue Zhanfei asked after listening to Wu Qi's explanation.

Wu Qi affirmed Yue Zhanfei's guess: "Yes, the dragon horns on the top of each desert dragon lizard are mutated organs, but the essence of the dragon horns is the hotbed for the proliferation and evolution of the ability virus, as for what kind of ability will be born, different desert dragon lizards are different." ”

Wu Qi himself was also speculating about what kind of strange abilities the withered and fossil-like dragon horns on the top of the desert dragon lizard's head contained. You must know that this dragon horn is the key to the desert dragon lizard's name as "dragon", not "super-large".

Either way, the desert dragon lizard in front of me is too big for a normal "mega" ability to evolve to that extent. Huge creatures inevitably need a lot of food to replenish their physical energy, and the desert dragon lizard, as an omnivorous animal, eats sand scorpions, camels, ostriches, and even all creatures that intrude into its vicinity.

In other words, this desert dragon lizard may swallow the investigation vehicle with a human and iron in one gulp.

"Wait, didn't the distress signal say that their investigation vehicle was destroyed in a sandstorm, and begged us to go and rescue them? Why didn't they say a word about this desert dragon lizard near their car! Xiao Kui suddenly realized that something was very wrong, and raised it loudly.

"It's a bit weird, indeed." Wu Qi said lightly.

"Maybe they're afraid that no one will dare to take this risk to save them because of the mention of the desert dragon lizard, but I think their investigation vehicle should be really broken, otherwise they wouldn't have escaped." Pi Chunsheng said. There was no surprise in his expression that he had been deceived, but he was trying to think from the other party's point of view.

"We can't die without help," Yue Zhanfei made a clear choice, while he remained cautious and tried to dial a communication request to the other party.

The elongated communication wait continued for a long time, and then it was connected. The image of a young man with white hair and red eyes flashed on the screen, he clutched his chest and said nervously: "Thank God, someone finally came to save us!" You are ......"

"Noah Base No. 7 Investigation Team, I am the captain Yue Zhanfei, please report your name and position, as well as the situation of being trapped." Yue Zhanfei said with a set of impartial communication processes.

"I'm the vice-captain of Investigation Team 5, Morley Morris, our captain died in the line of duty while on an investigation mission, and now I'm the interim leader......"

The man's voice reached the carriage, and as soon as Wu Qi, Guo Baibai, Gao Yuan, and Krees heard this name, their expressions suddenly changed.

Wu Qi suddenly got up, walked to Yue Zhanfei's side in a few steps, and looked at the electronic screen showing a portrait.

With white hair, red eyes, and a familiar and hateful face, he heard or read it right, this member of Investigation Team 5 who sent out a distress signal was the captain Morley, who had repeatedly killed them during the mine escort mission!
