Chapter 57: The Gargoyle

At night, the Golden Desert was very desolate, empty, and very silent, except for the cold wind that blew from time to time, Gordon could hardly feel any other movement.

Turning around, Gordon looked around carefully, but still couldn't notice anything unusual.

The palpitations came and went quickly, but Gordon didn't dare to relax, it was his body warning him.

Gordon has experienced this situation many times, and almost every time it has verified the accuracy of the body's warnings.

Gordon looked around again, except for the fire not far in front of him, which was still glowing.

Elsewhere, it was pitch black, and it was still quiet in the darkness.

The quieter it was, the more uneasy Gordon felt.

Gordon still has a certain understanding of this uncertain warning of heart palpitations, and he knows that when the danger is too great to threaten his life, he will naturally feedback it in the depths of his heart, but sometimes when the great danger suddenly comes, Gordon can't feel it.

So Gordon didn't specifically verify this, but once the body naturally had this kind of early warning, Gordon didn't dare to be careless.

"Woo... Woo!"

An icy whimper blew from afar, and the air was filled with the smell of dryness.

As time passed, Gordon not only did not relax, but became more and more uneasy.

"Dark Vision!"

After blessing himself with a witchcraft aura, Gordon's eyes could clearly see the movement of the desert in the darkness within a certain range.

A little away from the group, a palm-sized scorpion with a grayish-yellow body and a black spiked tail standing high behind it was foraging;

Farther away, the two yellow, red and black ringed snakes were entangled with each other, and the way the two snakes were entangled should be doing something indescribable.

In the other direction, a gerbil-like creature suddenly crawled out of the desert and ran away into the distance with a puff of smoke, quickly disappearing from Gordon's sight.

Looking at the peaceful desert night around him, Gordon frowned, but still did not relax.

So he stood up, took a few steps, and tried to look into the distance, but it was still a calm desert nightscape.

The calmer the surroundings, the more uneasy Gordon felt.

Gordon believed his palpitation response because its early warning had hardly failed.

Suddenly, a rustling sound was suddenly brought to Gordon's ears by the cold wind that blew by, and Gordon, who was in a highly sensitive state, immediately looked in the direction of the wind.

It was found that in the sea of sand not far away, the yellow sand showed signs of continuous loosening.

Soon, in the short period of time between Gordon hearing the sound and noticing the loosening of the yellow sand, the movement of the yellow sand subsidence became louder and louder!

"Is that a sand trap?"

Gordon's eyes widened suddenly, and he couldn't help but mutter.

Sand depression: Because there is quicksand blown by the wind, before it has time to be compacted, the quicksand is extremely soft, as long as the appropriate pressure is applied to its surface, the upper layer of sand will flow, and the creatures on it will be quickly trapped.

Sand depressions are not uncommon in the desert, and they are not very dangerous for the average wizard apprentice, but this is when the sand depression area is not very serious.

However, once it encounters a large area of sand depression, it is very likely that a third-level wizard apprentice will die in it if he does not have certain sufficient means.

Just looking at the speed of the quicksand, I'm afraid that if there is really a sand subsidence phenomenon in front of you, the area will definitely not be small.

Just as Gordon was about to turn around and wake up a few people, suddenly a monster suddenly burst out of the quicksand.

On the terrifying face full of fangs, two half-curved hideous sharp horns rose high and backwards, the muscles of the whole body were bulging and sturdy, and the streamlined body was like a carving, the limbs were thick and sharp, the sharp claws, and the sharp horned wings behind the back, which were constantly inciteing like giant bats.

With the sudden appearance of this monster, a cold and evil aura rushed towards his face.

"Damn, it's not a sand depression down there, it's a tomb ruins or something that's been opened!"

"Otherwise, how could this gargoyle used to guard the crypt wake up and appear outside!"

Just by glancing at the gray-black rock-like skin not far away, Gordon knew what that guy was!

'Gargoyles', a type of gargoyle that is used to guard caves or other places.

"Hurry up, it's time to go!"

Gordon screamed, quickly turned around and fled, and now there was no way to fight.

Because gargoyles are creatures that are created by wizards at the level of third-level apprentices, and are generally used as guards at least two together. And that's not even counting some of the other hygiene stuff that might be there!

Sure enough, as soon as Gordon finished speaking, another gargoylle of the same size burst out of the quicksand.

As soon as the two gargoyles came out, they saw a few people not far away, and their eyes immediately turned red.

Because the gargoyle is set in the body, the command is that if awakened by any means other than a spell, it will attack all creatures within its range.

The two gargoyles, with red eyes, struggled to fly towards the group with their wings.

Mallory had woken up when the first gargoyle had rushed out of the desert, and Doreen and Serra had woken up a little later when they heard Gordon's voice.

Mallory was also startled when he saw that Gordon had fled some distance backwards, and when he only glanced back at the gargoyle, he felt the amazing aura on the gargoyle's body similar to that of a third-level apprentice.

It's just that it's too late to flee at this time, so his lips quickly squirmed, and then he pointed at the two gargoyles who were attacking with great momentum.

"The Vine Cage!"

Soon, only two green seedlings quickly appeared at the gargoyle's feet, and quickly swelled into two thick and thorny vines and several small vines to wrap around the gargoyle, quickly binding the gargoyle inside.

Seeing that the witchcraft was working, Mallory hurriedly chased in the direction of Serra, who was not far away.

"Quick, brother!"

Sierra shouted!

"Hurry up, the vine prison won't be able to trap them for long!"

Mallory caught up with Serra, and soon after she quickly followed Doreen, the two thick vine cages were easily torn into several pieces by the gargoyle, and chased after her.

At this moment, there was another violent fluctuation at the mouth of the quicksand cave, and two huge blue-black books, much larger than the size of a gargoyle, struggled out of the desert.

The two giant blue-black books with a row of sharp and hideous serrations on their mouths finally jumped into the desert, and then kept opening and closing their mouths and moving quickly in the direction of the Gordon team's escape.
