This king is a pragmatist, and he made it clear that he is not interested in artifacts, and he is also very strong in the strength of his country, and he just wants to defend his own one-third of an acre.

Anyway, there is no penalty for failure, the other party is willing to send him a land ship directly, and Mu You has no reason to refuse this task.

You have agreed to the King's request for cooperation. 】

[The king is overjoyed, and immediately orders his men to prepare a banquet, and to catch the wind and wash the dust for you. 】

[You declined the king's kindness and expressed your desire to leave as soon as possible. 】

……

The country's action is still quite good, and the king did not delay, as soon as he heard that Mu You wanted to act as soon as possible, he immediately canceled the banquet and began to prepare.

About an hour later, Mu You received a notice: the land boat for him was ready, and it stayed outside the south city gate.

Mu You hurriedly manipulated the character and looked over.

[When I came to the south of the city, I saw that a huge dhow was already docked on the sand outside the city gate. 】

[The land ship is 20 meters high, about 100 meters long, the whole is a fusiform, and the bottom extends out of eight mechanical webbed feet similar to reptiles,]

[Sand land boat: A sand boat modeled after the body structure of a desert salamander, which can be driven on flat ground in the sand, combined with the help of the sand sail, when the wind direction is correct, it can burst out at unimaginable speed......]

This land ship is not the same as he imagined, it still has 'legs', and it looks like it is made after the structure of a reptile, and the appearance description is a bit weird.

But in any case, the thing must be genuine, and with this ship, it will be much easier to move in the desert in the future.

You have gained control of the Sand Land Ship. 】

In addition to the land ships, King Ejarmar has also provided you with several escorts. 】

[More than a dozen caravan guards stepped down from the ship, stood in front of you, and the chief of the guard at the head of the guard lined up and introduced their identities to you. It turned out that they were all the elite of the army of the Ajömar Empire, and the escort led by the Empire's legion commander Kimi Evans. 】

There will be people who act with him, Mu You is not surprised, after all, such a valuable ship is sent out, it is impossible not to send someone to watch, what if he runs away with the boat directly? To Mu You's surprise, the person at the head was actually a top master of level 30!

You must know that because of the deliberate suppression of the Wizarding Association, in several human countries, there are almost no masters above the legendary level, but I didn't expect that in this remote desert country, there is still a full-level master!

[Evans comes up to you, points to his forehead and chest, and gives you a salute that represents 'divine protection,' and then gives you a few things.] 】

[You have been given a set of 'Rich Merchant's Costume with a Special Pattern.'] 】

[You have received a 'King's Treasury' ring.] 】

[You have obtained the 'Treasure Trove Temporary Credentials' marker.] 】

[King's Treasury: A special spatial ring that connects to King Ejomar's private vault, which is filled with various gold, silver and jewelry, but the treasure can only be removed from it by virtue of the treasure vault voucher mark. 】

[Treasury Temporary Voucher: A token that will only take effect when there is a need for funds during the mission, and you can withdraw treasure from the King's Treasury, but if you use the treasure for purposes other than the mission, the voucher will be invalidated immediately, and the mission will be counted as a failure, and you will be at odds with the Ejomar Empire. 】

This king is quite magnificent, and in order to ensure the completion of the task, he directly handed over his private treasury to Mu You. Of course, the other party is not stupid, and has made some restrictions, the treasure in the treasury can only be used for the task itself, in other words, the consumption he generates during the mission, the king will reimburse him, but if he is unruly and wants to embezzle public funds for himself, there is no way.

[Evans tells you that your identity for this mission is to play the role of a wealthy merchant from other places, and you are also a faithful follower of Caesar. And they are the 'caravan guards' you hired in the desert. 】

[You put on the clothes of a wealthy merchant and boarded the land ship with Evans and others. 】

[The land ship made a roar similar to that of a train, and in a rumbling tremor, it officially began to glide on the sand, and the speed was getting faster and faster......]

[Go to the Crimson Desert, expect to arrive in ...... in ten hours]

The journey of up to ten hours is actually not short, but the advantage is that there will be no monsters in the middle, and there is no need to stop and go, and you can hang up safely throughout the whole process.

However, Mu You is not idle, according to the description in the text, the land boat travels on the undulating sand dunes, but the interior is as smooth and comfortable as a train.

At this time, more than a dozen guards on the ship gathered in the passenger compartment and sat together in twos and threes.

Mu You manipulated the characters to go around among the crowd and tried to interact with them one by one.

["All mortals die, may the goddess of the desert bless you, warrior!"] ”】

["As long as you are an enemy of Caesar, you are our friend! ”】

["Caesar's army of the undead may be strong, but as warriors of Ejomar, we will never run away without a fight! ”】

["The greatest glory of a desert warrior is only to die on the battlefield and ...... horse leather shroud"]

["If Caesar reappears, there will be no peace in the desert! ”】

"When the war starts, will you be on our side? ”】

"Caesar must be stopped! This is our mission! ”】

……

Clicking all the way, Mu You found that these soldiers were as if they had been brainwashed, and they could only say some fixed lines.

It was only when the Legion Commander Evans was clicked that the option to interact normally finally appeared.

[You come and sit down across from Evans and try to talk to him.] 】

[Ask about his past], [Ask about his ambitions], [Try to recruit].

Mu You's eyes lit up, can you recruit?

Originally, he was wondering, how could a top master of level 30, who was a sideways existence everywhere in the Star Spirit Realm, be willing to be subservient to others and be an ordinary army leader?

Now the option of recruitment suddenly appeared, which immediately made Mu You's heart moved, and he decisively clicked to try.

[You tell Evans that you are also the lord of a city, and that you are in charge of tens of millions of people, and you are talking about whether he has any intention of following you to Sky City. 】

[Evans looks at you, shakes his head and declines your offer.] 】

["I am a warrior born in the desert, and I am also a faithful believer in the goddess of the desert, my faith is pinned on this desert, and I am destined to protect this land in this life until death! Evans replied earnestly. 】

Mu You was disappointed for a moment, but he somewhat understood why the Wizarding Association didn't suppress his rank.

This man is strong and powerful, but he is a more paranoid believer, and no matter how strong he is, he will not leave the area where he was born. And the Wizards Association can't look down on a remote and desolate continent like the desert, and there is no conflict with the people here, so it naturally lets it go.

Shaking his head, Mu You continued to try to interact with the other party.

[You ask Evans about his past.] 】

[Evans tells you that he served in Caesar's army in the past and was one of Caesar's most effective personal guards, but then he couldn't stand Caesar's brutality towards ordinary people, and decided to assassinate Caesar, but unfortunately the assassination failed, and he was forced to flee Caesar's army, and for a long time, he has been pursued by Caesar's army, and has been displaced in the desert, but he has also escaped the bizarre destruction of Caesar's army......]

"Oh?"

Mu You was stunned, this legion commander was actually Caesar's personal guard, that is, a character more than a thousand years ago, no wonder he could have such a high level!

Unexpectedly, he had just entered the desert and had not found any trace of Caesar, but he first met a party who had been around Caesar.

[You hurriedly ask Evans if Caesar ever really got the 'Pen of Order'?] Mu You immediately asked this most important question.

Evans looks at you and nods his head to give you a clear answer, because he has seen the existence ......of the magic pen with his own eyes, but this pen has mysteriously disappeared into the desert with Caesar's army thousands of years ago. 】

Mu You breathed a sigh of relief, in this way, at least confirmed that the legend was true, the magic pen was indeed still in this desert, and he would not run in vain this time.

[Evans tells you that it is precisely because he has seen the power of that magic pen with his own eyes that no one knows better than him how powerful the army of the undead created by Caesar with the magic pen is, and once Caesar's army is reborn, the entire continent will be destroyed!] 】

"So our mission this time is very important! No matter what the cost, you must stop Caesar from resurrecting Caesar! Evans looked at you with great seriousness. 】

["If you are so afraid of Caesar's resurrection, why don't you just send an army to exterminate this organization? ”】

This is also a point that Mu You is more puzzled about, why the other party is an empire, and to deal with an organization composed of bandits, he still needs to rely on him to intervene as an outsider to help.

"The Caesars are vigilant and hidden deep in the heart of the Crimson Desert, and if they notice our army approaching, they will immediately withdraw. Evans shook his head: "Besides, our purpose is to prevent Caesar's resurrection, not just to destroy an organization, even if they are eliminated, if the means of Caesar's resurrection spread, Caesar still has a chance to be resurrected." ”】

["We have also arranged undercover agents before to try to break into their interior, but unfortunately, they are particularly strict in the identity of the locals, and all the people we sent are gone. So we can only try to get help from outsiders, and we have to be outsiders who are strong enough to protect ourselves......" Evans looks at you. 】

“……”

Mu You was speechless, because he suddenly found that his goal and the other party's goal seemed to be in conflict: the other party didn't want Caesar's empire to be resurrected, and to put it bluntly, he didn't want Caesar to reappear in any form.

And his goal is to get the magic pen, if it is really as the other party said, the magic pen is still in the hands of Caesar, then he must first find Caesar before he can talk about snatching the magic pen......

Mu You shook his head and didn't mention it for the time being, so as not to affect the cooperation.

Along the way, he began to communicate with Evans, asking him for information about Caesar.

And Evans knew everything, saying everything he knew.

According to Evans, Caesar was indeed a tyrant, and the title of 'war madman' was not an exaggeration at all.

However, Evans was also vague about the mysterious disappearance of Caesar's legion, only saying that overnight, the entire city suddenly disappeared without a trace in the desert.

In short, the game was in such a hurry all night, and it was not until the next morning that Mu You finally received the prompt of [Enter the Scarlet Desert].

And at this time, Mu You had also discovered that the days in the desert were too long.

Last night, until about 9 o'clock in the evening local time, the sun had not yet set, and at about 3 o'clock in the morning the next day, the sun rose again in the sky, which shows how long the day is here!

And according to Evans, the next Crimson Desert is an 'Eternal Day Desert', the sun does not set all day, and the complete opposite of the Undercity, this area is daylight 24 hours a day!

This made Mu You quite uncomfortable, as it meant that his vampire skin would not be usable here.

[Your sand land ship has been attacked by a gang of sand bandits!] 】

[At Evans' signal, several soldiers on the ship immediately disembarked and fought, easily defeating the sand bandits......]

……

【…… Another group of bandits jumped out of the side of the road and stopped your landboat ......]

[Several fighters shot again and easily leveled the enemy's ......]

……

After entering the Crimson Desert, he began to encounter sand bandits from time to time on the road, but fortunately, these guards on the ship were strong enough to use Mu You's hands at all, and these soldiers would automatically clear all obstacles along the way.

In fact, Mu You didn't know where their destination was, anyway, someone led the way, and he was happy to touch the fish.

I went deep into the Crimson Desert for about two hours, and when I encountered the tenth wave of robbers, other text finally popped up in the game.

["It's coming! That's them! The familiar shouts of sand bandits were heard outside the land ship, and Evans, who had been keeping his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes. 】

[You look out through the car window and find that the number of sand bandits this time has increased significantly, densely packed with at least 100 people, and all of them have a nine-toothed sun pattern painted on their chests, which is exactly the same as the pattern on your rich merchant's clothing: this is the battle flag pattern of Caesar's legion! 】

[Including Evans, more than a dozen guards disguised as soldiers immediately went out to fight. 】

[All you hear is the sound of fierce fighting and screams coming from outside the ship. 】

[After waiting for a few minutes, until the outside sounds gradually subsided, you walked out of the cabin.] 】

[At this time, the battle in the outside world has come to an end, and more than a dozen soldiers are guarding the land ship, all of them bloody, but they have not been reduced. The hundreds of sand bandits on the opposite side surrounded the entire land ship, but most of the sand bandits obviously flashed fear in their eyes, obviously realizing that the combat effectiveness of this caravan escort was extraordinary, and they were all hesitating to give up this hard bone. 】

["Stop! You shouted, and then as agreed with Evans, you stepped off the land ship and revealed your identity to the other party: as a wealthy merchant who sold his property from outside the country to support the Cult of Caesar, this is really a flood that washed the Dragon King Temple, the family does not know the family, this battle is really a misunderstanding. 】

[And after listening to your 'self-introduction', the group of sand bandits opposite looked at each other, with suspicion in their eyes, and looked at you with questioning eyes. 】

[Until you show the pattern of the nine-toothed sun on your chest, and raise your arms and shout: "Long live Caesar!" ”】

[The surrounding sand bandits were instantly infected by you, and they also showed their emblems one after another, excitedly raising their arms with you and shouting: "Long live Caesar!" ”】

Mu You looked at it with a strange face, isn't this Caesar Divine Cult a pyramid scheme?

At least the behavior of these people in front of them really looks like a group of extremists gathered together......

[After some chanting, the tense atmosphere on the scene suddenly eased, and the eyes of the sand bandits looking at you have become the eyes of their own people. 】

[A man dressed as a sand bandit leader walked out through the crowd, walked quickly in front of you, looked you up and down, and then looked at several soldiers around him, still with suspicion on his face. 】

[The leader of the sand bandits began to carefully interrogate your origin, experience, net worth and other information. 】

[Fortunately, Evans prepared detailed identity information for you in advance, and you answered fluently at this time. 】

[After the sand bandit leader interrogated, the doubts on his face still did not completely dissipate, but he didn't want to let go of such a big fish as you, after a long silence, the sand bandit leader looked at you: "You, go back with us, others, leave!" ”】

Mu You breathed a sigh of relief, and he should have successfully blended in here.

As for Evans, they didn't think that they could follow to find the other party's lair and send Mu You to the Caesar Divine Cult, which was their entire plan, and the rest was up to him to play freely.

[You take out the treasure prepared in advance, reward all the guards in turn, and signal that they have completed the escort task and can return on their own. 】

[Evans pulls you aside and sends a message to you: The 100,000 troops of the Ajromar Empire are stationed under the Temple of Abyss on the northern border of the Crimson Desert, and if you encounter difficulties, you can always go to him for help. 】

["May the desert goddess bless you! Evans nodded his forehead and chest, and after blessing you, he glanced at the sand bandits behind him, and then waved his hand to lead his men away. 】
