Roar –

Behind him, there was a loud roar that sounded like metal rubbing, resounding through the sky.

A tall man leaned against a sandstone wall, his chest heaving violently, his right hand covering his left arm, his left hand trembling incessantly, and half of his forearm could be seen to have turned blue-black.

His body was covered in stains from the mixture of sweat and blood, and his eyes looked a little glazed ahead, alternating fear and determination.

Roar!

The roar exploded behind him again.

He shuddered, his right hand quickly touched his waist, pulled out a dagger, and turned his head to look at the sand.

He heard the sound of the sand grinding against each other, and then a huge shadow slowly spread out from behind the sandstone wall, like a titan python, snaking and crawling on the sand.

Seeing the shadow cast by the monster, he remembered the scene.

Under its power, the shuttle was twisted into a twist like a toy model.

He gritted his teeth, and the fear in his eyes was suppressed, replaced by a resolute ferocity.

There is no doubt that this brute will not let him go, and there is no need to leave anything to chance.

He couldn't run anymore and didn't want to run anymore.

Died of heat stroke with it, he preferred to die in battle.

His back left the sandstone wall, his dagger clenched, his gaze becoming determined.

"Captain!!"

He roared and rushed towards the python-like shadow on the ground.

However, as soon as he took two steps, there was a sudden sound of electricity coming from the communicator in his ear, and he could faintly hear the call of a woman mixed with it.

"Zizi...... Gecko...... Zizi ...... Reply...... Zizi ......"

It's Xu Ying's voice!

He paused suddenly, hurriedly pressed the communicator, and shouted repeatedly: "I'm a gecko, I'm a gecko......"

However, it seems that his words are not heard from the other side, and he is still repeating: "Please answer when you receive it, please answer when you receive it......"

"It's me! I'm a gecko! He yelled like crazy.

"Gecko, gecko, please answer received, please answer received......" The voice on the other side became clearer and clearer, but he kept repeating the sentence, apparently not receiving a reply from him.

"It's me! It's me! ......" the gecko almost roared.

"Please answer ...... received"

"Nyima! Silly! He couldn't help but curse.

Although she knew that it was none of her business, it was difficult not to be angry with her in this life-and-death situation.

"Gecko?" Xu Ying finally received his voice, "Report your location!" ”

She heard it!

The gecko seemed to grasp the life-saving straw, and hurriedly shouted: "Small sandstone group, the specific location cannot be determined, there are monsters, be careful!" ”

He didn't know if he heard it or not, because after saying this, there was only interference left in the communicator.

"Zizi...... Zizi ......"

He suddenly felt abandoned, obviously under the scorching sun, but his whole body was cold.

The shadow had spread over the sandstone walls, obscuring the sun above him, completely enrolling him in.

Trickling slime fell from the sky and dripped down on his head and shoulders, bringing with it a disgusting fishy smell.

It's too late.

It was as if his heart had been clenched by a hand, and the blood was imprisoned in it, unable to be transmitted.

This is despair, a familiar feeling that has not been present for a long time.

He felt as if he was back in his childhood, back to that dark childhood.

That's it, it's over. He hung his arms in a dejected manner.

The sound of sand continued to sound, getting closer and closer.

Then......

"Zizi...... Hold...... Zizi ...... We'll find you...... Zizi ......"

The gecko jerked its head up.

It's the captain's voice!

All the cells in his body seemed to come to life in an instant.

"Roger!"

He instinctively replied, then left the sandstone wall and ran towards a piece of sandstone in front of him.

Roar –

The roar exploded overhead, and he felt like his internal organs were almost shattered.

At the same time, there was a boom, and the sandstone wall was shattered.

Rubble splinters shot at his back like bullets, but he didn't feel any pain.

He ran forward desperately, with only one thought in his mind: hold on.

This is the captain's order!

……

……

Zheng Guo climbed a small sand dune, suddenly stopped, and listened intently for a moment.

Seeing this, the audience also quieted down and listened with bated breath.

Sure enough, I heard something.

It was a faint roar, like thunder coming from far away in the sky.

"Did you hear that? This sound is often heard in the Sierdor Desert. Zheng Guo stood on the top of the sand dune, holding a pergola and looking around. It sounded like thunder, but there were no thunderclouds in the sky when the sound appeared. Experts believe that this is some unknown geographical or climatic phenomenon, but no one has yet come up with a plausible explanation. ”

Zheng Guo slid down from the top of the sand dune, got up and continued to move forward.

"However, there is a legend among the miners here. In that legend, the Sierdor Desert was the entrance to hell, and it was inhabited by a demon dog that had escaped from the depths of the earth, and the inexplicable thunder was actually roaring. ”

After speaking, Zheng Guo smiled: "Legends are always much more interesting than facts, right?" ”

The audience begs to differ.

"Interesting??"

"Okay, whatever you say, it's what you say. =_=”

"Guoye, do you have any misunderstanding of the word interesting?"

"Guo Ye's definition of fun is different from us ordinary people. ┑(￣Д￣)┍”

"Invisible pretending, only serving the fruit."

……

It had been more than six hours since he had set out from Devil City, and he had only rested once in between, so he was also quite tired now, and the harshness of the desert was once again blatant against him.

Chatting with sailors can cheer him up to a certain extent, so the more tired he is, the more he will talk.

Zheng Guo stopped in front of a sand dune more than ten meters high, unscrewed the lid of the pot and drank a few sips of water.

The go-digger had jumped to the top of the sand dune and turned to look at him.

"Heh, is this mocking me?"

Zheng Guo wiped his sweat and began to climb up with his hands and feet.

The sand is hot, and a burning sensation occurs when the palm of the hand touches for two seconds.

He was sure that if he put the raw meat on the sand on the sunny side, it would be cooked in half an hour.

Although he was tired and hot, this little sand dune was still difficult for him.

Soon, he climbed to the top.

His eyes were on the front and a smile appeared on his face.

"An explorer once said in an interview that his favorite place was the desert. Because in the desert, 99 percent is despair, but when you survive the 99 percent, the remaining 1 percent of hope will make you feel that your life has been in vain. ”

He stood up and looked ahead.

"Look, one percent of hope, I've found it."

The camera follows his gaze.

I saw a low-lying area not far away, crowded with lush green.

And surrounded by greenery, there seems to be a sparkling lake.

It's an oasis!
