……

Wailing desert.

The dim sun hung high in the sky, emitting a light that was not bright, making people drowsy.

Nearly 1,000 players appeared in the desert one after another.

Dust Knell has so many spawn points that it's completely random, and no one knows exactly where they'll be teleported.

If you are lucky, you can see the outline of the city, but if you are unlucky, there is endless yellow sand in all directions, and you can't even tell the direction.

"Getting lost" is the first difficulty of the dust knell.

All the spawn points of the player are in the desert, far away from the gathering place of human towns, which is one of the reasons why the players of the wilderness have taken "entering the city" as their primary goal, after all, if the town is not important, Xiaopoyou doesn't have to throw them so far, and if they can't find clues in the city, they will come out to send them themselves.

On the other hand, the town is the only known safe zone.

Danger lurks everywhere in the desert, and they can only gather in towns.

And because there are too many towns, and there is a distance between each city, it is impossible for a thousand people to gather in one town in a short time, so before entering the book, it is difficult to discuss with Lao Li Tou and others all night, and circle eight towns on a map made according to intelligence, which are located on the periphery of eight different directions of the town group.

Which one is close to which one.

With the collection of small waves and small waves, it is easier for hundreds of people to fight when they encounter a single giant sandworm.

This group is full of first-echelon players - at least in terms of attributes, none of the nine hundred players in the main battle is lower than 280, and they all have full levels.

The rest of the logistics players, including cooks, medical care, etc., also have an average attribute of 220+.

They are fully prepared for this wasteland, and the lineup can be called luxurious, and if they pick one out, they will be called a big guy by many people.

But sometimes it's useless to prepare too much.

Luck matters.

The dust death knell starts at noon, the sun is overhead, it's hard to tell the bearing, and the compass can't bring in anything.

However, as time passes, the sun will slowly set below the horizon, and it will be relatively easy to distinguish between southeast and northwest.

Therefore, being far away from the city can only be said to be unlucky, not unlucky.

There are so many birth points of the dust death knell, 99% of which are outside the active area of the giant sandworm, theoretically speaking, as long as you can block your own breath and not make any sound, it doesn't matter if you stand still all the time, it's safe.

There is only one place to choose this place – the Sandworm Basin.

This is the name that the player chooses for himself based on the terrain features.

Just look at the word "sandworm" and you can see that it is no longer a problem not far from the town.

After many estimates, this place is about two or three hundred kilometers away from the border, which is really not far, but it is in the middle of a bunch of giant sandworms......

Assuming that the Giant Sandworm's alertness range is a circle that overlaps with each other slightly, then this spawn point is located outside the only circle of these overlapping circles.

If you don't enter the circle, it is better than entering the circle.

If you move casually, you will attract the attention of the giant sandworm and be attacked by the swarm.

The worst thing is that there are not only sandworms in the sandworm basin.

Depending on the direction of the setting sun, there is an invisible city in the western part of the basin.

Bricks and tiles are not visible during the day, but only appear at night, and if you accidentally hit the city walls or come into contact with the city, they will immediately turn into dust.

It's not clear what's in the city, no one has ever entered it, but even in the best case, this city won't take the initiative to attack the player, which is equivalent to blocking them in one direction, further compressing the player's living space in the Sandworm Basin.

Because "invisible" is not invisible in the ordinary sense, they can't see it even when they wear anti-hidden glasses, and they can't tell the specific location of the city, so they can only stay away from the entire direction of the west.

Compared to simply being far away from human settlements, teleporting here at the beginning is the real unlucky.

For example, night cat cold.

He enters the game while shouting "Brothers, rush", and then discovers that his birth point is in a "basin" surrounded by sand dunes, so the sound of the night cat cold abruptly stops, and he falls into deep thought.

Did you buy a fake yellow calendar?

After a few seconds, some unlucky eggs appeared.

Night Cat Han looked sideways, and saw that the old Li Tou, who had just had breakfast with him offline, was also looking at him.

Night Cat Han: "......"

Lao Li Tou: "......"

Everyone: "......"

Bad news: The spawn point is in the Sandworm Basin, which players call the "Restart Point".

The good news: You're not alone in the same bad news.

Roughly counting, there are more than thirty.

Most of them are middle-aged people, and they know at a glance that they are the mainstay of the Sunset Red Guild.

I don't know if it's a foreign acquaintance.

"Lao Li, what's going on?" An old aunt asked with a frown.

As the president of the Sunset Red Guild, many members of Lao Li Tou have seen him, some of them danced the square dance together, and some of them tasted tea together on the third floor.

Lao Li Tou waited for a long time, thought about it seriously, and replied, "Open the pendulum." ”

Night Cat Han: "......"

Everyone: "......"

Just entered the book and opened it?

In fact, it's not that Lao Li wants to pose, there is no way, he can only pose.

He waited a moment before he spoke, just to see if anyone else was coming.

If there were a few more top-level combat forces like him and Night Cat Han, then they would not have a chance to retreat from the Sandworm Basin.

But no one came.

Not to mention the top-level combat power, there is not even a logistics, a few minutes have passed, how many unlucky eggs were just now, and how many unlucky eggs are still now.

Almost all of the people who should have entered the capital have already entered the capital, and they can only rely on themselves.

But they can't rely on themselves.

Only these thirty or so people didn't have to fight at all.

Not a single bug may be able to solve it, let alone a bunch?

For now, the only way to survive is to survive in the cracks of these giant sandworms, and when the large army converges and finds that they are not there, it is easy to guess that they are trapped in the sandworm basin - this is also said in advance, if you can't get out, you will wait for rescue, and you really can't send a horn to say it.

You can forcibly escape and fight your way out, but it's not necessary.

The blood of the "blood road" is most likely their own blood.

Once a battle breaks out, there will inevitably be casualties, and this is just the beginning, and everything is about preserving the strength of the team.

The night cat complained with resentment: "What a broken copy." ”

He had been thinking about the dust death knell for several years, and he entered the book with great interest, but as soon as he came, he was locked up for a day and couldn't do anything, isn't this a mentality?

"Let's all sit down and rest." Lao Li Tou greeted everyone, he could see it, took out a jar of wine, sat on the sand, and smiled at the night cat: "Be content, at least we haven't been discovered, if these insects come out to breathe and just see us, then the fun is really big." ”

As soon as the words fell.

"Wow!"

A sandworm emerges from the sand in the distance.

The man-eating flower-like blood basin mouth is just in the direction of Lao Litou.

One person and one insect look at each other from afar.

Lao Li Tou: "? ”

Night Cat Han: "?? ”

Everyone: "??? ”

Both sides were stunned for a moment, and then the giant sand worm let out a roar, and the edges of the huge mouthparts were shaken by the sound wave.

"Roar!"

Hearing the call of their companions, more giant sand insects came out of the ground, like muddy high-rise buildings rising from the ground, one after another, like a cage, surrounding Lao Li Tou and others in the middle of the basin.

Each of the adult sand insects was twenty or thirty meters long, and the shadow cast on the sand made the already dim light even darker.

Count the past counterclockwise...... There are twenty-one!

Night Cat Han: "Grass! ”

Is this a bird?

The old aunt also scolded: "Dead old man, are you a crow's mouth!" ”

Lao Li Tou was also a little dumbfounded.

He just made a casual joke, and it turned out that this worm came to the real thing?

Still coming so many at once??

It stands to reason that their place is not a low security factor, similar to a "monitoring blind spot", and should not be detected - even if it is discovered, it should not be detected so quickly.

The key is that the sandworms really came out to breathe, and happened to look in this direction, are they so unlucky?

It's not that they're unlucky, it's that someone is more unlucky than them.

The spawn point is random to the Sandworm Basin, which is already the worst start under normal circumstances, but this is a terrible situation for the average player, and it is not enough to match someone's atmospheric luck, so nine deaths and one life become ten deaths, nowhere to escape, and it is difficult to fly.

Twenty-one adult sandworms, even if the summer cold comes, they will die.

Playing head-on can be said to have no chance of winning.

"Poof."

The sandworms plunged into the ground like giant snakes lurking underground, swimming swiftly from all directions against the tumbling sand.

"Run!" The night cat made a quick decision, kicked hard under his feet, flew up, and wanted to take the empty road.

"Break through with all your might!" Old Li Tou also shouted, and Edgeworth rushed in the opposite direction to Night Cat Han.

But how can it be so easy?

If you can run with a simple flight, many teams will not be wiped out.

A sandworm suddenly burrowed out of the ground, bringing up a large cloud of sand and dust, and when it opened its mouth, it spat out a mouthful of brown and fishy slime, sealing the way of the night cat.

Night Cat Han was forced to brake, and the giant tail of the sandworm had swept over from the side, Night Cat Han raised his arm to resist with all his might, but was still smashed back to the ground with a "bang".

During the fall, he also forcibly controlled his body and did a backflip, took out a big sniper and threw a shot at the sandworm, accurately hitting the sandworm's mouthparts.

Handsome.

But the damage is zero.

At the same time that Night Cat Han's breakthrough failed, Lao Li Tou was also slapped back by a tail, and he fell next to Night Cat Han.

The sword qi like a rainbow was almost shattered.

The third one to be beaten back was the old aunt.

She is not as resistant to beating as Lao Li Tou and Night Cat Han, and when she was hit by a sandworm, the corners of her mouth were already overflowing with blood, and her hair was scattered, and she looked very embarrassed.

She got up and saw that Lao Li didn't run away, which meant that no one could rush out to attract firepower for the people trapped inside and lead away the sandworms, she couldn't help but be anxious and angry: "Aren't you a Huajiu Sword Immortal?" ”

Lao Li Tou: "But it's a giant insect in the sand!" ”

While the two were talking, the remaining thirty or so players had already played a wave of near-perfect gathering fire under the leadership of another old uncle of the Sunset Red Guild.

It's a pity that the sandworm is too rough and thick, and dozens of skills smashed it, just making its thick body bend backwards for a moment - this should have been a stiff action after being hit, but the sandworm seemed to be using this to accumulate strength, and it bounced back very unreasonably, spewing out a large piece of wind and sand slime from its mouth, which in turn disrupted everyone's formation.

"Get out of the way!" The old uncle yelled.

He's pretty fast, but not everyone has enough dexterity.

Someone moved slowly and didn't have time to completely dodge, a little brown liquid stuck to his ankle, and suddenly his whole leg turned into wind and sand, and let out a painful muffled grunt.

"it, what's this bug doing?" A man with a metal jacket on his arm and a cannon on his wrist scolded.

He is not a member of the Sunset Red Guild, but his personal combat power is not inferior to them at all.

His prosthetic cannon was powerful enough to destroy a small plane, but it only burned a little flesh on the sandworm, and the wound was still healing rapidly.

The fight is not fast yet.

"Let's run for our lives." Lao Li said.

It's not who he wants to give up, in the current situation, gathering together will only die neatly, it's better for everyone to show their powers, and run one is counted as one.

There are twenty-one worms, and there are thirty-eight of them, and one block can live 17 people.

"I'll raise the sword formation to help you stop it, you run to the east, don't look back." Lao Li Tou's tone was rarely solemn.

Seeing that the sandworms were about to surround him, he was already thinking about whether to use resurrection later.

And at this moment, the sky suddenly became overcast, blocking the sunlight.

A breath of destruction descended without warning, enveloping the entire sandworm basin in an instant.

"What is this?" The faces of the crowd changed drastically, thinking that the movement here had attracted the attention of something even more terrifying.

Just a group of bugs, they only have to flee for their lives, and they have to get another boss?

As everyone knows, the more terrifying is yet to come.

A man descended from the sky, as if the emperor was in the world, and the dress of the green shirt and long hair made Lao Li Tou and Night Cat Han feel very familiar.

At the same time, a fierce gale hung on the field.

Countless sand and dust were swept up by the wind, swaying and circling, going upstream, forming a series of wind salons under the noses of everyone.

In the distance, there was a huge wave of sandstorm rolling in and rumbling.

The earth also began to tremble violently, making Lao Li Tou and the others unsteady on their feet and almost falling.

Almost instantly, everyone's field of vision was filled with yellow sand, and the wind and sand were blowing so much that they almost couldn't open their eyes.

In this extreme weather, the senses of the sandworms that have lived in the desert for a long time have even been hindered, and they have lost their targets for a while.

Lao Li Tou only felt that his scalp was numb.

Clear sky thunderbolt + tornado + sandstorm + super-large earthquake above level 10, what kind of Hades-level appearance effect is this??

"You go first."

Gu Chi pulled the trigger with a "bang", and the bullet passed through the wind and sand, hitting the sand dunes a few kilometers away, bursting into a pitch-black whirlpool, and the air in front of him also twisted up, forming a portal, and then used the spirit technique to gather dozens of players together like monsters, and packed them out.

"Roar!"

Twenty-one sandworms relocked their target, burrowed out of the ground, and swooped towards Gu Chi.

At the same time, the thunderclouds in the sky flashed a dazzling white light, and the thunder rolled.

In the next second, Gu Chi disappeared in place.

"Boom!"

Dozens of angry thunderbolts fell violently, densely packed like rain, and all of them smashed into the sandworms.

The giant sandworm, which had been set on fire by dozens of people and had not suffered any substantial damage, suddenly exploded its entire body at the moment it came into contact with the furious thunder, and exploded into flesh foam like a devastation, and was swept into it by a hurricane, becoming part of the wind salon volume.

Lao Li Tou: "??! ”

Night Cat Han: "??! ”

Everyone's eyes widened, what kind of thunder is so powerful, even sandworms can be seconds??

Gu Chi himself gasped as well.

The 9999+ heavenly thunder of bad luck is terrifying.

"It seems that this tornado can't be touched."

Gu Chi, who had escaped the catastrophe, did not stop his steps, and the thunder was temporarily gone, but there were tornadoes and sandstorms, as well as violently shaking the ground that cracked the opening.

Gu Chi's teleportation did not stop for a moment.

Then everyone saw an extremely strange scene.

No matter how Gu Chi walked, those stout tornadoes always followed behind his ass.

Isn't this thing supposed to walk in a straight line, how can it still turn around?

What's even more outrageous is that the approaching sandstorm is also turning.

Even because of Gu Chi's serpentine position, the sandstorm also turned left and right, swaying repeatedly.

The trembling ground was also moving with Gu Chi's steps, as if there was an earthquake zone under his feet.

Everyone: "??? ”

Is this reasonable?

"Not good." Lao Li Tou reacted and found that Gu Chi was getting closer and closer to the west of the basin as he ran, so he hurriedly riveted his strength and shouted: "Don't go over there, it's dangerous!" ”

But a few kilometers away, Gu Chi's ears were full of angry winds, where could he hear it?

He was still teleporting to the west of the basin.

Nothing unusual was found.

Until earthquakes, tornadoes, and sandstorms chased him along the path he had taken.

There was a crackling boom, mixed with a cracking sound, as if something had been crushed and collapsed.

It poured quite a lot, and it lasted for a long time.

There was a feeling that the building was falling apart.

There were a few wisps of black smoke in the wind and sand, which drifted away with the wind.

Gu Chi was still running.

As he ran, a copy announcement popped up.

[The first stage objective "Destroy the Dark City" has been completed]

Lao Li Tou: "? ”

Night Cat Han: "?? ”

Everyone: "??? ”

Players scattered around: "???? ”

Gu Chi: "Huh? ”
