Chapter 439: Navigation and Biomes

For the first thing, Xu Yunshu was a little mentally prepared.

Although the centipede shell on his body can effectively isolate the heat and allow him to walk on the desert normally, the time it can withstand is limited.

In other words, this underground centipede, which lurks under the desert, is not a diurnal animal in this area.

They can tolerate a certain amount of sun exposure, but the duration of their time is extremely limited.

Only a little stronger than Xu Yunshu himself.

So after ten minutes of walking, he had to stop on the spot, dig a hole frantically downward, and bury himself.

After digging to a very deep position, Xu Yunshu completely relaxed.

There is still some humidity at the bottom of the desert, but only relative to the drought on the surface, and in fact, their water content is almost negligible compared to the Dream Forest.

But it was this little bit of humidity that also allowed Xu Yunshu's peculiar centipede shell to cool down quickly.

Xu Yunshu secretly calculated in his heart that if he wanted to explore the desert map at such a speed, he would probably need to spend a lot of time.

Speaking of this, Xu Yunshu sighed heavily.

That was the second thing he didn't think about.

Xu Yunshu was accustomed to memorizing maps through mental strengthening, so much so that as soon as he landed, he subconsciously began to explore the behavior.

However, as time went on and the scope of his exploration increased, he realized that there was something wrong with this approach.

The biggest variable is the wind.

The wind in this desert is always there, and it never stops.

The wind direction is treacherous and changeable, and it was clear that it was a tailwind before, but in the blink of an eye, it became a convective headwind.

This leads to a very serious problem.

The wind will blow away the sand.

The rolling dunes are not fixed, they are constantly filled and piled up by the wind.

In this way, the most direct consequence is that Xu Yunshu loses the sand dunes he once marked, which will completely confuse his sense of direction of the entire desert land.

Xu Yunshu had a hunch that if he continued to move forward like this, sooner or later he would lose his sense of direction and begin to spin around in this barren land, unable to walk out again.

You have to find a way to get your way.

However, in fact, none of the methods that Xu Yunshu has mastered so far can be implemented in this desert.

Discerning by the direction of the sun?

Kidding, the sun and moon in the dream world are completely different from the real world, and it is not certain whether the celestial bodies here rise in the east and set in the west. What's more, Xu Yunshu's extra generated eyes, just glanced at it, and he was completely blinded.

For a short time, he didn't want to experience this terrible feeling again.

Will the plants on the sunny side grow more lush?

There are hardly any plants in the desert, and this one cannot be used as a guide at all.

What about navigating with magnetic fields?

In the real world, it may work, the dream world...... Maybe give it a try?

However, Xu Yunshu's attempt to simulate the magnetic field navigation system of real creatures was of no use.

Now, it's really a bit numb.

What can be done to discern the direction?

Xu Yunshu thought about it, and always felt that with his white wolf body, it should not be difficult to discern the direction in this strange desert.

After all, when he first spied this place, he clearly saw the figure of his kind.

It would be ridiculous if even the species that live here could get lost.

But Xu Yunshu thought about it again, as soon as he entered the desert, the real flame burning could not be mixed with the slightest fake.

Could it be ...... Only at night can the white wolf discern the direction?

If that's the case, then it's a terrible thing.

Xu Yunshu thought to himself, how could it be impossible to act only at night.

You must know that the night in the dream world corresponds to the day in the real world.

He was now alone in Janeland, in a state of extreme seclusion.

Sleeping in the middle of the day, that's a big heart.

In view of this, Xu Yunshu felt that it was still necessary to find a way to distinguish the direction during the day and avoid wandering around.

How, exactly?

Xu Yunshu inspected his arsenal and suddenly found something excellent.

The silk threads of the group of silkworms in the lichen forest.

For a fifth-level predator, the consumption of this thing is really not high, as long as the sunlight does not burn it, Xu Yunshu has a fixed star.

In the desert underground, after using the weak water to disperse the heat, Xu Yunshu once again put on his armor and drilled out of the ground.

The first thing he did after being exposed to the scorching sun was to drag a silk thread from his tail.

Xu Yunshu deliberately increased the volume of the cavity sac slightly, so as to make the silk thread that should be transparent more conspicuous, and he spread it out and laid it on the sand, carefully observing whether the silk thread had changed.

The bad news is that the thread has indeed changed slightly.

The good news is that it's just evaporated and turned into a hard protein strip that has completely lost its flexibility.

As long as it is not decomposed and disappeared in a short period of time, Xu Yunshu's idea can be realized.

With the super physical strength of a level 5 predator, even if you go in the wrong direction, you can hold on long enough, and if you can't do it, you can find more clues at night in the desert.

The idea is made, and the action begins.

Because he couldn't tell the direction, Xu Yunshu looked around, and could only hastily cover a direction, and planted a bone nail on the ground, this nail didn't need to be very reliable at all, as long as it could stand in the sand.

Next, the tail of the white wolf's body gently brushed the bone nail, and before the silk thread was dried into a protein, it adhered to the bone nail.

After doing all this, Xu Yunshu quickly ran forward, running at a galloping speed for a long time, until he thought that the distance was enough, and then he hit the bone nail on the ground again.

In this way, a simple guiding coordinate is done.

As long as the coordinates are repeatedly made, they can position themselves in this way, so that Xu Yunshu does not need to spin in place, and walks out of this desert land in a straight line in the most direct way.

The road ahead is still full of uncertainties, but Xu Yunshu has begun to gradually adapt to the desert itinerary.

After about thirty minutes of moving forward in the way of coordinates, Xu Yunshu realized that he no longer needed the assistance of this thing.

Because right in front of the white wolf, there were many strange smells.

Strange and yet familiar.

These two antonyms blend together perfectly at this moment.

said that these smells were unfamiliar because Xu Yunshu had never smelled these smells in the Dream Forest.

said that they were familiar because although he had not smelled these smells, the reaction that the smell provoked in the white wolf's body made Xu Yunshu completely understand what these smells represented.

That's the smell of food.

Xu Yunshu's eyes widened, and a little happy look appeared in his heart.

For the white wolf, he can only realize that there is food ahead, but for Xu Yunshu, who has a mind, it represents something more.

There...... There are biomes!
