It is not difficult to lose the tool to communicate with the headquarters, Du Ruoxi's storage space is always ready with a maritime satellite phone, and it also carries a special GPS positioning system, which allows the people of the management committee to quickly locate and find them.

Geographical boundaries can be an insurmountable obstacle for explorers throughout history, and any kind of disaster can leave those adventurers without support and thus annihilated. But in modern society, as long as the people of the management committee can locate Xiao Yan and Du Ruoxi, within 24 hours, the backup will arrive immediately.

Therefore, Xiao Yan and Du Ruoxi didn't have too much worry about their current situation, until Xiao Yan heard a strange sound coming from the depths of the ground under his feet, and it slowly became louder.

It seemed to be the sound of flowing water, and it was like the sound of quicksand, and in this gradually louder sound, Xiao Yan could clearly feel that his feet were trembling slightly.

The face of the young awakened person changed suddenly, and he rushed into the carriage of the station wagon, grabbed Tristina, and shouted at Du Ruoxi: "Run, run!" ”

Du Ruoxi's reaction was not much slower than Xiao Yan's, at the same time that Xiao Yan rushed into the carriage, she had already reacted to what was happening, and when Xiao Yan shouted, she had already rushed towards the direction of the mountain range in the distance. Xiao Yan followed closely behind the female awakened, the trembling of the ground was intensifying, and the shaking of those vehicles and makeshift camps became obvious.

Eventually, in one corner of the camp, the metal frame suddenly made a "click" sound, like the moans of this camp, and like the zuihou roar of those metals. The sound didn't last long. The house on that side of the camp began to deform rapidly. Dump to the side. Subsequently. The whole camp began to lean in that direction, and the cars, the rooms, were creaking, but they couldn't get them out of the way.

Eventually, a huge bunker appeared on the side of the camp and continued to expand in all directions, sinking the entire makeshift camp into this bunker. Xiao Yan looked back in the direction of the camp. One could only see the black man who knelt down to Mecca and died slowly disappearing, until at last he sank completely into the darkness in the middle of the bunker, along with the entire camp.

Ten minutes later, when the expanding sand pit spread all the way to the running Xiao Yan, it finally stopped. Then, a large amount of yellow sand continued to roll like a central area, and soon, everything in the middle of this sand pit was completely submerged by the yellow sand. That temporary camp of the Abdul family, in a short period of time. It was buried in yellow sand.

As the sand stopped rolling, the huge bunker didn't look much different from its surroundings. Although the terrain is noticeably lower, this unnatural bunker will eventually become normal over time.

"Underground riverbed."

Du Ruoxi also looked back in the direction and said: "Those canyons are the result of ancient precipitation, and in ancient times, there was a large underground water system that flowed into the Nile, and it seems that there was a dry underground riverbed directly below that place just now. I just don't know how this dry riverbed could collapse at this time. ”

"Maybe it has something to do with the ants, maybe it's because they come up from underneath the sand and stir up the sand layers, which is the result. Who knows, let's go, if there is a temple here, apparently the owner of the temple is not so hospitable. ”

Xiao Yan whispered, then glanced at the dark mountains in the distance again, and let out a long breath.

The disappearance of the camp will not cause them problems, but Xiao Yan has a feeling that there will be problems with the communication equipment this time, just like the last time in Fusang.

Sure enough, Du Ruoxi's GPS navigator did not display any images at all after she turned it on, and the maritime satellite phone could not be dialed at all, and from now on, they once again fell into a state of communication island.

It is possible that there are a large number of magnets in the underground sand river, or it may be some other enriched radioactive elements, which should be the reason why Du Ruoxi cannot get in touch with the headquarters. Given the current level of interference, no communication system can be useful. Obviously, the GPS tracking of Du Ruoxi by the headquarters will also be affected here.

Du Ruoxi glanced at it thoughtfully, "It's really strange, the camp didn't find this problem before." ”

However, this is just Du Ruoxi's casual remarks, with those huge and abnormal scarabs just now, as well as the Sahara silver ants that can instantly inject compound toxins and suck blood, it has been proved that there are some changes in this vicinity that cannot be assessed with normal technology, and communication is affected, which has become a matter of course.

The two men did not stop there, and began to walk quickly in the direction of the mountain.

Although the physical fitness of the awakened has far surpassed that of secular humans, the water in their bodies will still evaporate with the surrounding environment, not only them, but also Tristina. If you are exposed to the sun for a long time, both Trytina and the Awakened will be severely affected by the evaporation of water.

Since the Logistics Base had just been destroyed, and neither water nor other supplies could be salvaged, they had to find shelter before noon tomorrow. While reducing the evaporation of moisture caused by direct sunlight, it is also possible to take a break and consider how to get in touch with the Awoken HQ.

Finding shelter in the desert is not an easy task, but the mountains ahead offer more than enough. Considering that there can be a downpour here around August every year, it is not difficult to find enough gaps in the mountains to avoid the scorching midday sun.

For Xiao Yan, whose physique and liliang have been greatly enhanced, carrying Tristina on his back is not a difficult thing, and it will not even affect his running. The two of them ran in the vast sea of sand for an hour in the night, and the mountains in the distance still seemed out of reach.

"50 kilometers, at our current speed, is still about an hour away."

Du Ruoxi slowly slowed down and finally began to walk. Running in the sand for hours was not a problem for her, but in such an unfamiliar environment, the Awakened had to retain enough stamina to deal with the unexpected. Therefore, it is the right choice to take advantage of the time when you are not too nervous, take a break from walking, and recover your strength.

Xiao Yan followed behind her and changed his rhythm, and also began to walk in the moonlight.

Frankly, if it weren't for that experience, walking in the moonlight and rustling sand dunes in such a wilderness would have been a pleasure. There was no wind, the whole sky was like a pure, transparent inky gem, and the moon seemed to be bigger and closer than usual.

Just walked quietly one after the other, in addition to the sound of his feet, he seemed to be able to hear the sound of his own heartbeat, and this sound was getting louder and louder, Du Ruoxi even thought that his heart was going to jump out of his body for a while.

Looking at the black and oppressive mountains in front of him, Du Ruoxi vomited and whispered, "You ......"

"What?"

Xiao Yan's response startled Du Ruoxi, but she quickly concealed her uneasiness and said, "No, it's nothing, I'm just asking, do you have any stored water or something?" ”

Xiao Yan held Tristina with one hand, and reached into the cloak with the other hand and fumbled for a while, saying, "There are only a few bottles of mineral water, which are still left over from the last exploration, I didn't expect such a drastic change this time." What, you need water now? ”

"No," Du Ruoxi hurriedly shook her head, she said, "I'm just asking, asking." ”

Xiao Yan felt a little strange, and of course, a little embarrassed. The two of them seem to be alone like this, there seems to be very little, and there is no sound around, and the distance between them seems to have become closer than before.

"Oh, are you okay?"

This time it was Xiao Yan's turn to break the silence, and in order not to be so embarrassed, he asked in a low voice, "Why don't we stop and rest for a while?" ”

Du Ruoxi turned his head to look at Xiao Yan, shook his head slightly, and said, "No, it's better to enter that mountain area as soon as possible now, otherwise Tristina may suffer from heat stroke at any time." ”

Xiao Yan nodded slightly, this place is close to the equator, even at night, the temperature is very high, even if you don't act, a lot of water will evaporate due to the surrounding temperature. And Tristina has lost a lot of blood just now, and her body itself is in a state of dehydration, if she doesn't find a relatively cool place as soon as possible, Tristina's body will soon have a fever and heat stroke.

The two of them fell silent again and walked for a while, and Du Ruoxi asked without replying, "Do you love her?" ”

"Huh?"

Regarding Du Ruoxi's question, Xiao Yan was obviously a little absent-minded, and he subconsciously asked, "What?" ”

"I mean, you love Tristina, don't you?"

Xiao Yan nodded and said, "Yes, when I was in Scotland, I couldn't confirm this yet. It's just that there have been some changes recently, and I really remember some things that I have forgotten, and then I realized that she is very important to me. ”

"What about Sylvia? Isn't she important to you? ”

Xiao Yan was silent for a while and said, "I don't know how to answer, but no matter how you answer, it shouldn't be a good answer." It's just that there doesn't seem to be any really good answer to this shijie, in short, I can't give up on any of them, and for whatever reason, I hope to be able to do it. ”

"Even if they grow old, they die before you?"

Xiao Yan laughed, and he said, "What kind of future does Weishenme care about? I haven't lived enough yet, and it's not a good thing to be so negative and gloomy. (To be continued......)
