Before dawn the next day, Darker and Marduk quietly got up, waved goodbye to the caravan and set out on the road to the Thunder Demon Hill under the reverent gaze of Gudama and several guards.

In the battle of the trench last night, more than 100 members of the caravan, including more than 20 old and weak women and children, were not killed or wounded, and all 120 jumping lizards were killed.

The leader of the caravan and the captain of the guard, Gudama, commanded Ruoding, the alchemist Hassan had no last resort, and the veteran warrior Marduk took the lead, and the three of them worked together perfectly to completely crush the lizard's surprise attack - that was a full 120 lizards that completely wiped out the Umlim Harbor Patrol Receiving Team!

The ecstasy lasted for most of the night, and by the early hours of the morning, the feeling of relaxation after the tension came flooding the mountains, and everyone except the guards fell asleep.

Darker and Marduk left the caravan at a little after four o'clock in the morning, and their original plan was to follow the caravan to the vicinity of the Thunder Demon Hill, and then leave the group and return to the world of Menzaro through the hidden Dune tunnel entrance.

Before leaving, Dak told Gudamah that he would give a message to Ibrahim, the son of the president of the Chamber of Commerce, Fida, that Hassan was going to be a guest on the territory of the Mensaros and that everything would be fine. Gudamai hurriedly agreed, and ordered his men to prepare dry food and water for the two heroes, and strictly forbidden to keep an eye on them—since the two of them were going to the Mensaros, and they did not bring camels and horses, it meant that the Mensaro tunnels were nearby, so that no one who was not long-sighted could see something that should not be seen and cause trouble.

Gudama arranged everything and asked Duck if he could leave a few flashbangs or white phosphorus smoke bombs behind. Duck graciously left him the few projectiles he had left yesterday. He is not afraid of imitation, there is no psychic tower, relying on manual production, it is estimated that he will not be able to make a few finished products in a month, let alone the ratio of various filling drugs.

Naturally, the magic cannon was also left to Gudama, because it was really inconvenient to carry, Gudamai thought about it again and again, and finally gave up and sent his capable men to bury it deeply.

As for the Psychic Tower, the biggest contributor to the defensive war, Duck has completely dismantled it - the Psychic Tower has a self-demolition function, and it can also recover half of the resources spent on construction when it is automatically dismantled.

After all the aftermath was done, the two waved goodbye to Gudama.

The sky is already bright, the heat wave is rising, and trouble is coming.

"Sir, there are three horses following us from the caravan. It's not a short time to follow. ”

Marduk put his ear to the ground and listened for a moment, then said to Dark.

Duck looked back and saw nothing but a clear yellow sand.

"Three?"

"Well, just three. What are we going to do?" Marduk, patting the sharp steel shovel in his backpack, "kill them?"

"Go around in circles and see if you can get rid of them. ”

"Good!"

Duck thinks it's likely that his performance last night has caught some people's attention and wants to get a glimpse of himself. Now that it's very close to the entrance of the tunnel, going directly into the tunnel may cause trouble for the Mensalo people, and it is best to get rid of it.

So, the two of them took the pursuers behind them and circled unhurriedly in the desert.

After walking for more than an hour, Marduk's head began to sweat.

"Master, the opponent has a tracking master, and he can't get rid of it. They rode fast and had more supplies than we did, and we couldn't afford them. ”

Duck pondered for a moment, and felt that since the opponent did not pounce, it meant that he was still afraid, and besides, they may not all be hostile, so it was better to try to make contact, so he asked: "If it is led into the tunnel, can it be cleaned up?"

Marduk smiled calmly: "Don't worry, master, the tunnels under the Thunder Demon Dunes are more complicated than the lines of spider webs, you only need one word, and I can trap them without using my hands." ”

"That's fine, get in touch with them first and then make plans. ”

"Be careful, sir, what if you can't run away after meeting?"

"They came after us from afar, just for what we had last night. We have people behind us, and they won't do anything to us. Walk for another hour. ”

"Huh, we're running out of water. ”

"Don't be nervous, I know where the water is. ”

"Master, are you really an angel sent by the Holy Lord?"

The two of them were muttering and calculating in front, and the three people in the distance behind were also talking in low voices.

The man who walked in front turned around and said, "Master Ellayi, they have found us. ”

Ellaichi in the back said, "Sahir, how did they find out when they were so far away, and how did you know that we were discovered?"

Sahil said: "That Marduk likes to hear with his ears, and his weapon is also a shovel, he must be a Mensalo." It is said that the people of Mensaro could hear the sound of sand snakes crawling for miles. They were now going around in circles, and there was no one else around, and there was no other possibility than to find us. Miss Letifa must have found out, right?"

Letifa was covered tightly with a black robe, and even her eyes were covered with a thin black veil, she was a girl who strictly adhered to the rules of the Mslan, she beckoned softly into the air, and with a crisp chirp, a lark landed firmly in her palm, and she whispered a few words in the bird's ear, "Yes, they found us." Uncle Ellayi, what are we going to do?"

Ellayi sighed helplessly: "I should have known that we should have spoken our thoughts openly and honestly, and now people must be wary." To catch up with the wind, you must not be a wall blocking the way, but a swaying feather. Let's go and talk to them. ”

Sahir hurriedly stopped: "No, sir, those Mensaros are a bunch of robbers, villains, and murderers......!

Ella interrupted him unhurriedly, "But how did I hear that they are poor fellows?"

Letifa whispered, "Even like Brother Sahir said, that Hassan is a talent we desperately need. It is impossible for a person with such skills to be willing to be in the company of villains and degenerates, there must be something to suffer, and we can help each other, and we will all be happy. ”

Ella smiled and gave Letifa a thumbs up, "Little Letifa said that, awesomely. Actually, the problem of the Menzaros will have to be solved sooner or later," he let out a long sigh, "if the Empire can be more tolerant, why would there be so many Mensaros? ”

The trio hurried forward, rounding a large sand dune not far ahead, and the footprints of Hassan and Marduk's footprints vanished.

Sahilqi said, "Where did you go?"

"Three, are you looking for us?"

The three of them jerked back, and Hassan and Marduk were lying comfortably in the shadows of the dunes. Hassan rested his hands behind his head, crossed Erlang's legs, and looked at the three of them lazily.

Sahir quickly jumped off his horse and drew his scimitar: "Such a big desert, you don't care where we want to go!"

Hassan stretched, patted the sand off his head, and slowly stood up: "That's whatever you want—don't follow me anymore, that's what I'll say." Marduk, let's go. ”

"You!"

"Brother Sahil, wait!" Letifa turned over and dismounted, grabbed Sahir by the arm, dragged him behind him, pointed to Hassan's waist and said, "Your hydration bag is broken." ”

Hassan looked down, and sure enough, the water bag had broken a long hole and collapsed, he smiled, took off the water bag, sucked off the last drop of water, untied it and threw it on the ground, and said with a smile: "What, you want to divide me in half?"

Letifa didn't hesitate to untie his water bag and handed it over, and said softly, "Travelers in the desert should help each other, shouldn't they?"

Marduk laughed wickedly: "Why does a girl show up and talk to strangers, doesn't she fall in love with my master? ”

Letty Fa Xiafei's cheeks were shivering, but she didn't retract the hand that handed the water bag.

Duck laughed: "And this kind of fool, then you're welcome!" As he spoke, he snatched the water bag from his hand, poured a sigh of relief, and threw it to Marduk: "Okay, with these, we can turn around for another half a day, let's go!"

Tears swirled in Letifa's big eyes, but the girl was strong and didn't cry. stared at the backs of the two of them for a long time, and stomped his feet angrily: "I will definitely dig you up!"
