The smoke cleared, and there was a strong fishy smell in the air, which was the smell of ozone, which was produced by lightning breaking down the oxygen in the air, and in addition to that, there was a foul smell of burnt proteins.

In the scorching summer, the desert is like a big furnace, so hot that everyone sweats like rain. After an encounter, the two were seriously injured, which made the team, whose atmosphere was not very harmonious, even more dignified at the moment.

Lista and Lydia lay flat in the aisle of the bus, in a coma, while Angel, Amy, and Aisha were on their sidelines to take care of them.

"Brother Tar, wake up quickly, don't scare me. Aisha felt terrible, if it weren't for her lack of strength, Tago wouldn't have been like this.

Once it was safe, Tinker Bell stayed by Lista's side, rubbing his little head against Lista's face, meowing from time to time, and then looking at everyone with his big round eyes, as if asking why his master hadn't woken up yet.

"Take a break! The young woman Hirya took the initiative to replace Angel, but Angel refused.

"I'm fine, it's so hot, I have to keep an eye on their situation at all times, especially Lista, he is very mentally overdrawn due to overload of magic, and I don't know how long I will be unconscious. Angel explained, and then pointed at Lydia, "She is the same, she has been infected with the neurotoxin of the marching ants, and although she has been treated urgently, she will still be in a coma for several hours." ”

It took Jace half an hour to fix the broken tire, and looked at the large gap in the tire, and then thought about the huge upper jaw of the bully marching ant, which may have been punctured by the marching ant, in order to make the prey stop, and then they rushed up and ate the prey.

"Anyway, they're just insects, do they have such a high IQ?" Jace was skeptical, but he didn't rule out the possibility, after all, monsters are different from ordinary wild animals, many of them have human-like habits, such as lizardmen, and bull-headed guards, they will make their own tools, so it is not uncommon for bully marching ants to puncture car tires.

The bus was on the road again, and when the engine started to start, the built-in air conditioning of the bus also started to work, and after a few minutes, the temperature in the bus finally stopped being so hot.

However, the oppression, the suffocating depression, still exists, as if even the air is about to condense, and this atmosphere makes everyone breathless.

"It turns out that traveling is far from being as easy as you think. Once, I was complacent because of my own strength, thinking that there should be few people in the world who can beat me, but along the way, I have encountered countless strong enemies, which makes me deeply feel my ignorance and insignificance, and now, Lista has fallen, if we encounter any danger now, I really don't know if we can be so lucky. Su Ke muttered, changing his previous state, completely lacking his usual heartiness and childishness, replaced by a low feeling, as if in this short period of time, he suddenly changed people.

"No problem, I believe that as long as everyone works together, there is no difficulty that cannot be overcome. At this moment, Lista entrusts us with his back, which is a trust in us, so until he wakes up, we will stick to it no matter what, and there must be no retreat and doubt about this belief. Newme sat next to Suke and comforted Suke when she saw Suke's depressed expression.

Suke nodded, "Thank you, I know, in the future, I have to work harder, I can't keep letting Lista do this for everyone, occasionally, I have to carry the heavy responsibility." ”

At noon, everyone simply had lunch in the bus, of course, because there was no camp, so they simply ate some dry food, bread, beef jerky, etc., and then continued on the road.

The bus still travels in the empty desert, with no border in sight, no matter how many miles it takes, it still seems to be in the same place, endlessly, as if there is no end.

At about three o'clock in the afternoon, Lydia finally woke up, she snorted dizzily twice, and used all her strength to sit up, instinctively trying to use her right hand to support her body, but she stumbled and carried back, because her right arm had been bitten off by the bully marching ants.

"How do you feel when you're finally awake?" Angel helped Lydia up, then handed her a glass of water, and then took out some more food, "Hungry, aren't you? ”

"My hand, how could this be? What the hell happened?" Lydia grabbed her hair with her left hand, trying to remember what had happened, but found that she was a blur, unable to remember anything about what had happened after the encounter with the bully marching ants.

Angel glanced at Denise and saw that the girl didn't mean to stand up and admit her mistake at all, but just lowered her head, as if she hadn't noticed Lydia wake up.

Angel shook her head, then comforted Lydia and said, "You were attacked by the bully marching ants and accidentally bitten off your right arm, but it's okay, it'll be fine, and when Lista wakes up, your arm will be back to its original state." ”

"Really, you're not lying to me, are you?" Lydia was still very heavy at first because of the loss of her arm, thinking that she would become a disabled person in the future, and the whole person was like falling into an ice cave, but when she heard An Jie'er's words, she asked in disbelief, and after making sure that she didn't hear it wrong, her mood couldn't help but suddenly rise.

After eating something, Lydia finally got better, her head was not so dizzy, but after calming down, she would feel phantom limb pain, Angel told her that it was a phantom pain, it felt as if her lost arm was still there, and it was accompanied by pain, which is a situation that many amputees will have in the early days, so don't care.

Six o'clock in the afternoon.

Aisha, who had been taking care of Lista, suddenly shouted with joy, "Brother Tar, are you awake? Then he handed a glass of water to Lista, who sat up on his back.

Angel was a little surprised that Lista had woken up so early, and in her budget, Lista wouldn't wake up until at least tomorrow morning.

"How long have I been in a coma?" Lista clutched his head, his head still dizzy, he felt like he was squirming when he looked at anything now, he was in a trance, and he couldn't really see it.

Aisha looked at her watch and said, "It's six o'clock in the afternoon, and you've been in a coma for more than seven hours. ”

"Six o'clock in the afternoon?" said Lista, looking at the sun in the sky, and shouted with some difficulty, "Stop." ”

Everyone was a little puzzled and turned their eyes over. Lista gasped and explained with difficulty, "Looking at the sun in the sky, we are going in the wrong direction. ”

When everyone heard this, they were shocked, and they hurriedly looked out through the glass window, only to see that the fiery sun was still hanging in the "south". It's six o'clock in the afternoon, and the sun should be in the west, and if the time is right, then there's only one explanation, and the bus keeps going north.

Newmee stood up suddenly, walked to the driver's seat in a huff, and yelled, "Jace, what's the matter with you?

Jace didn't answer, but still held the steering wheel and drove the bus unhurriedly.

Everyone felt that something was wrong, and Newmay immediately slapped Jace in the face.

With a snap, Jace snapped, came back to his senses, rubbed his aching cheeks, and asked puzzledly, "What? Why did you hit me?"

"Do you still want to ask me? I still want to ask you! Why don't you stop the old lady quickly, she is going in the wrong direction?"

When Jace heard this, he was stunned, and immediately stepped on the brakes, picked up the compass and looked at it, and sure enough, the bus didn't know when it was going north. (To be continued.) )
