"We're done!"

"There are these green-skinned brutes everywhere, what should I do?"

"We can't go. Cang Xu gasped, and the old man's face was no longer calm at the moment.

Seeing the increasing number of green-skinned lizards around them, the exploration team members fell into despair, and many of them roared.

"It can't be!"

"Lord Greybeard, didn't you say that these green-skinned lizards go out in the early morning to feed?!"

"It is precisely because of this that we chose this opportunity to break through. ”

"The lizards in front of us are a large army foraging for food. But they came back too soon. ”

"It's useless to say this now, we can go back, back to the underground cavern before!"

"There's no going back, so it's better to take the risk and rush forward. ”

"Are you crazy? These green-skinned lizards in front of you are the strongest in the herd, otherwise how would they go out to hunt for food?"

The beard was silent.

Zidi gritted her teeth: "Let's climb this sand dune first." ”

With that, she took the lead.

Although in a desperate situation, the instinct to survive drives everyone to follow Zidi.

The exploration team climbed the sand dunes, and the green-skinned lizards followed closely behind.

Whenever these green-skinned lizards approached, Zidi threw out a packet of powder and threw it out, forming a thick green smoke to block the lizards.

Although the green smoke would spread and dilute rapidly, no longer hindering the lizards, the expedition team managed to reach the top of the sand dunes due to such interference.

Then the crowd became even more desperate.

They are condescending and see very clearly.

The dunes are surrounded by dense green-skinned lizards, as many as two or three thousand.

Most of them are ordinary beasts, and the lizards that stay around their nests are basically old, weak, sick and disabled. The most elite ones were the ones who went out hunting before, and the ones who returned ahead of schedule almost all had the breath of life at the black iron level.

"What are you struggling with? Just wait here to die. "Some people even sat down on the sand with their butts slumped.

"Rather than be devoured by these green-skinned lizards, I might as well die in a sandstorm. Others smiled wryly.

Lizards congregate under the sand dunes and become more and more dense.

Soon, another lizard rushed up to the dunes.

Zidi took out the medicinal powder and swayed it condescendingly, immediately creating a thick green mist again.

The clouds of fog form a makeshift wall to repel the incoming lizards.

Seeing this scene, Bai Ya sincerely admired: "If it weren't for Master Zidi, we would have died a long time ago!"

Someone saw that the leather bag around Zidi's waist was full of stacks of medicine bags, and his eyes lit up, and he proposed: "There are so many potions, we can wait for a strong wind, wave these medicine bags in the wind, and kill these lizards completely! ”

Zidi shook her head: "With the wind, these smoke can't gather together, and will quickly drift away." And lizards are not stupid, when they encounter green smoke, they will run away when they turn around. The most important thing is that we are more vulnerable than these lizards, and these green smoke are even more harmful to us. ”

Everyone was dumbfounded: "What should I do then?"

Zidi sighed and looked at the green-skinned lizards around the dunes: "I can only hope that these lizards will not be able to attack for a long time and will disperse by themselves." ”

What the girl expected did not happen.

The lizards remained surrounded, and always tried to attack the dunes, though they were repelled by the green mist each time.

Which piece of green mist fades, Zidi will replenish it in time.

This particular powder is being consumed rapidly, and although there are a lot of purple pediselles made, at this rate, after a day or two, it will be completely consumed.

Watching these green-skinned lizards screaming and screaming, they just couldn't kill the sand dunes, and many of the exploration team members relaxed.

But the beard and the purple pedicle have sad faces.

They knew very well that the situation in front of them was actually very dangerous.

These lizards were only frightened away by the green mist, which shrouded a limited area, and if they didn't want to die, they could still rush up. In fact, as long as these lizards hold their breath, they can also rush through the green mist.

But they are beasts after all, and they have no wisdom and don't know how to be flexible.

Time passed, and the sun climbed higher and higher, and it came to noon.

Abarsu saw that the lizards were lying under the dunes, one by one, lazy, and the powerful lizards among them occupied the shade of the dunes.

The old scholar frowned deeply, and expressed his guess: "I don't think these lizards will give up killing us. I've observed, and there is no silver level among these lizards. It's basically impossible. To maintain such a large herd, there must be at least one silver-level lizard leader. ”

"If you look at those lizards, they are the strongest of the lizards, and they basically have the smell of black iron. But almost all of these monsters were injured, and many of them were quite serious. I guess the lizards that hunted for food encountered a strong enemy in the morning, and not only did they not find food, but they were also hunted, and they suffered heavy losses themselves, and the leaders were killed. ”

Zidi suddenly realized, "So, we are the only food in the eyes of these lizards?"

Cang Xu nodded, and shook his head slightly: "It's not just that. We also destroyed the lizard eggs. The smell of these lizard eggs has always haunted us, and these lizards have completely hated us to death. I'm afraid we flee to the end of the desert, and they will all hunt down there and tear to pieces our murderers who killed their offspring!"

The crowd was silent.

Bai Bud couldn't help but cry out for Zidi: "But if we hadn't destroyed those lizard eggs, and without these egg liquid as materials, Master Zidi wouldn't have been able to make these medicinal powder green mist." Without these, we would have died a long time ago, how could we be alive now. ”

Cangsu shook his head: "I never meant to criticize Lady Zidi, in fact, I am full of gratitude to my lord. I'm just telling you everything I know. ”

The crowd fell silent again.

There was not a hint of wind.

The sun is like a thousand arrows shooting down. The temperature in the air became very high, and the people exposed at the top of the dunes became more and more unbearable.

They are like fish stuck on a red-hot iron plate.

It's really going to be baked!

Many people take off their outer layers of clothing and use them as small tents to prop up on top of their heads.

They did not dare to sit because the sand under their feet was hot. At this time, if a lizard egg is broken and falls on it, it can be steamed immediately and the egg will be beaten.

"It would be nice if we had enough bows and arrows. Standing on the sand dunes, condescending, we were more than capable of shooting these lizards. Let these lizards be our food. Someone muttered.

Unfortunately, almost all of the bows and arrows made by the expedition team were lost in the sandstorm.

Only half of the members of the exploration team remained.

Not everyone has weapons, and even fewer have a short bow to carry on their body.

It's a desert again, and there's no wood for them to make it.

"It was the idea of Lord Needle Gold to make a short bow. I don't know where the knight is, but if he's here, he might be able to figure out a way. Someone spoke again.

Needle Gold led everyone to victory and led the exploration team out of the existential crisis, and its prestige has reached everyone's hearts. So at this moment, everyone is looking forward to a wise and powerful leader like him.

Bai Ya looked into the distance: "I don't think Lord Needle Jin will die so easily, he is only temporarily separated from us, he will definitely appear and come here to save us!"

Bai Ya's tone was full of certainty, which made everyone feel rather strange.

So, someone asked, "Why do you say that? Can you get in touch with Master Needle?"

Bai Ya shook his head and widened his eyes, with a trace of doubt on his face, and said as a matter of course: "Because he is a knight, and he is a Templar." He will definitely be able to come back and take us out. Because this is a knight!"

Everyone smiled bitterly, and Cang Xu shook his head slightly.

has been with Bai Ya for a long time, and everyone can see it. The young man seemed to have an inexplicable trust and reverence for the knight. The level of trust and reverence is so much so uncommon that it seems naïve and stupid.

But at this time, everyone does not want to use common sense to refute this naivety and stupidity.

Because they are in a desperate situation, they are also very much looking forward to having such knights, who can stand up when they are most helpless and dangerous, and use their superb ability and wisdom to help these weak people get out of the crisis.

This short conversation was followed by a long silence.

The dazzling sunlight is so domineering that people can barely raise their eyelids, and can only look down at the sand under their feet.

The crowd was hungry and thirsty, and many had chapped lips.

Although there was food and water, the amount was not much, and at the suggestion of the beard, a limited supply had already begun.

"Huh?!" one of the explorers suddenly looked suspicious, then quickly rubbed his eyes.

After reconfirming, he shouted, "Come and see, is there someone here?"

The sound immediately caught everyone's attention.

"It's a person. ”

"Who is it?"

"I can't see it yet. ”

"He's running towards us!"

Cang Xu narrowed his eyes: "The feet of the sand dunes are attracted by green skins, and this person also rushed over, obviously a master of art is bold." ”

"It's Lord Needlegold, it must be him. Bai Ya shouted excitedly.

As the distance drew closer, everyone could finally recognize the faces of the people.

Suddenly, cheers erupted.

"It's my lord, it's really my lord!"

"I'm right. Bai Ya laughed.

"Needle-sama, we're here!!"

"Have you finally come to our rescue?"

Many people couldn't help but cry with joy at this moment.

Zidi's breathing also became short, and her crystal-like eyes showed surprise and anticipation at the moment, but soon the girl frowned slightly, and her heart tightened: "Ah, he's injured!"

The expressions of the people who were jumping with joy also changed.

They also found that the left arm of the needle gold that rushed over was hanging, as if it was broken. At the same time, he was also wrapped in a "bandage". These "bandages" are apparently long strips of cloth that have been torn into clothes by needle gold.

"Your Excellency is hurt. ”

"That sand storm was terrifying. ”

"I just don't know if the adult's injury is serious?"

The members of the exploration team were all worried, after all, the state of the needle gold was directly related to everyone's death at this moment.

Of course, the lizards also spotted the rushing needle, and soon, several lizards were killing the needle gold in the outermost part.

Holding the spider blade in his right hand, he rushed into the lizards without dodging or dodging, slashing left and right.

After the knife light slashed, there was always a splash of green blood.

All of these ordinary lizards were decapitated and died in the sand.

The killing of the needle gold immediately caused a riot of the lizards. More lizards came at him, this time not just ordinary lizards, but also bronze level monsters.

The momentum of the needle gold suddenly decreased a lot.

Bronze-class lizards are not only larger and more powerful, but more importantly, they spit acid more quickly.

Ordinary lizards, once they want to spit acid, will stay in place, their necks will thicken, and after about two breaths, they will open their mouths to spray green liquid.

This time is completely capable of allowing the needle to complete the counter-kill.

Ordinary lizards squirt acid, and in Needlegold's opinion, it is a good time to attack.

The bronze lizard brews and squirts, and it only takes one breath. If you fight alone, this time is also enough to dodge and counterattack.

But now the situation is that there is only one person in Needlegold, and there are more than a dozen lizards besieging him. It is impossible for him to choose the most perfect dodge path, which can both dodge and approach, and then take advantage of the situation to kill.

"You must never touch these acids. "The bottom of the needle's heart is as calm as ice and snow.

The acid of a bronze lizard can also quickly corrode the granite. At the moment, Needle Gold has no fighting qi to protect his body, and he has no armor on his body, so if he gets hit by acid, he will be seriously injured immediately.

"Needle Gold Lady......"

"It seems that the injuries on the adult's body have a great impact on him!"

"The adult is constantly dodging, does it mean that he can't use his fighting spirit to protect his body?"

At the top of the sand dunes, everyone looked into the distance, and the battle situation in front of them gradually made their hearts flutter.

Suddenly, someone let out an exclamation, and subconsciously shouted, "Be careful!"

It turned out that among the besieging lizards, one was very insidious and spewed acid.

The acid struck Needlegold's back.

But the next moment, as if he heard the shouts of the exploration team, he didn't look back, and rolled on the spot, perfectly dodging the acid.

The other lizards also scrambled to dodge.

The acid shot into the air, and the liquid fell on the sand, and immediately there was a clattering sound, and the sand corroded into a shallow groove, and a pungent white smoke rose.

"It seems that I have been trained a lot in the past, so I have enough combat experience to deal with this kind of siege on my own, and I am also calm and comfortable with ease. ”

At this moment, Needlegold's perception of himself deepened again.

Although he could only see what was in front of him, he could always see several dodge paths when he was being chased and intercepted.

His gaze was not limited to the front, but as he moved and dodged, his gaze constantly and quickly scanning, and his ears could hear the wind. So even if the acid shot from behind, he was able to dodge in time.

Of course, this is also due to the fact that the speed of acid shooting is not as fast as that of normal arrows.

The members of the exploration team didn't know the grasp of the needle, and they were all terrified when they saw the young knight surrounded and in danger, and they felt that the needle gold was like walking a tightrope on the edge of the cliff at the moment.

"As long as you are shot by this acid, Lord Needle Gold will be in danger!"

"He's wounded, and he's risking his life to save us, and that's the Templars. ”

"Lord Needle Gold...... As he said, he never gave up on us. ”

In addition to worrying, the exploration team members were even more moved.

"We're going to support you!"

"But we only have a short bow, and it's too far away. You can't shoot the lizards next to the adults at all, and you can't help him. ”

The explorers gritted their teeth.

The range of long-range weapons is divided into maximum range and effective range.

Effective Range: Medium and long-range weapons have lethality, and the maximum range is only the farthest they can reach.

The short bow is shoddy, and neither the effective range nor the maximum range can reach the position of the needle.

The members of the exploration team were trapped at the top of the sand dunes, and for a while, they could only watch and could not help.

"Oops. The people's expressions sank again, and they saw a third stream of lizards rushing towards the needle. This batch of green-skinned lizards contains three black-iron level lizards!
