Fortunately, everyone hid behind the sand dunes, and was not shrouded in yellow light, so they escaped the catastrophe and were not injured by the earth-based magic of the sandworm.

Lyman and the other mercenaries and Mattoni couldn't help but be speechless in shock, such a terrifying sandworm monster could be said to be the first time in his life to see it, in front of such a terrifying monster, they were so small and vulnerable.

Everyone didn't dare to breathe, for fear of attracting the attention of the two sandworms.

At this point, both Matoni and Lyman wonder if they had made the right decision to cross this dangerous and unknown Yellow Dust Desert.

The thorn suddenly stabbed another sandworm, and the blood from the wound gushed out, and immediately dyed the whole yellow sand into a blood-red patch, which was shockingly red, and a painful roar pierced through the clouds from its mouth.

has always been an optimist, and Fox, who didn't care about anything, looked at the terrifying scene in front of him in a daze, and said to himself: "What a terrible monster!"

Moko, who was crawling beside him, said softly: "The sandworm is not the most terrifying demonic beast in the desert, as long as you are careful, you can completely avoid it, if you encounter another terrifying demonic beast, then I am really afraid that there is no life at all!"

Several people next to him couldn't help but ask in surprise: "What kind of demonic beast is so terrifying, it can't even deal with sandworms!"

Moko said in a terrified and trembling voice, "It's an ant!" There seemed to be infinite horror in his eyes, as if he had seen an incomparably terrifying hellish scene.

A few people next to him couldn't help but turn their heads to look at Moko in surprise, and said suspiciously: "Ants?" I couldn't believe that the little ant was really so terrifying.

Moko nodded solemnly and said, "Yes, desert ants, also known as lion ants!"

At this time, the battle between the two huge sandworms had also come to an end, and the sandworms who cast the earththorn magic on each other were almost defeated, and their huge bodies were scarred and bloody.

The huge mouth full of sharp teeth let out a heavy wheezing sound, it seemed that the two sandworms were exhausted, and the earth magic emitted was also beginning to weaken, but for these mercenaries of the Ling Feng Mercenary Regiment, it was still very amazing and terrifying.

At this moment, there was a sound of "sand, sand, sand!" from a distance, and the sound slowly changed from light to heavy.

After hearing this voice, Moko's face couldn't help but change drastically, he turned gray, and muttered to himself: "It's a lion ant, it's really a desert lion ant!"

And the two sandworms seemed to feel the sense of oppression and threat, and they all stopped fighting, and their huge one-eyed eyes were staring in the direction from which the voice came.

Captain Lehmann couldn't help but ask suspiciously, "Isn't it just ants, what's so scary!"

Moko turned pale and said, "You'll find out when you see it later!"

As the sound became heavier and heavier, the desert lion ant that made Moko terrified finally appeared in front of everyone, and after seeing the true face of the desert lion ant, everyone knew why Moko was so afraid of the desert lion ant.

I saw a dense black spot appear on the sand dune, and almost as far as the eye could see, they were all overwhelmed by the black spot, and the black spot was the desert lion ant.

It turned out that the desert lion ant was the size of a dog, and it was pitch black, with long antennae and teeth, exposed, and its red eyes emitted a bloodthirsty light.

The two desert monster sandworms also felt the threat of those desert lion ants, and let out a huge hissing sound, hoping to scare off those desert lion ants, but those desert lion ants simply turned a deaf ear and disdained it, in their eyes, these two huge desert sand worms have become their delicacy.

I saw that those desert lion ants made a sound of "hiss, hiss!" and rushed towards the two sandworms from the sand dunes, covering the sky and making an amazing sound.

In a few moments, the desert lion ants had crawled all over the bodies of the two sandworms, biting their bodies fiercely with their sharp teeth, and some even crawled through their wounds, greedily eating their fresh flesh.

The two sandworms tumbled violently in pain, and the entire sand was tumbled, and many desert lion ants were crushed into meat sauce.

But the number of desert lion ants is so huge that only a few of them die. And those desert lion ants are not afraid of death at all, and they go forward one after another, flocking to the two desert lion ants that cannot be ignored one after another, and fiercely biting their bodies.

After a while, the huge body of the sandworm stopped rolling, and its breath became weaker and weaker, and finally it didn't move anymore, lying quietly in the sand, turning into a lifeless corpse.

The mercenaries looked at everything in front of them in amazement, and only then did they understand the meaning of what Moko said just now, the truly terrifying desert demonic beasts were the thousands of lion ants in front of them.

Lyman and the other mercenaries were even more frightened, and the boss of Namatoni was even more frightened, and his legs were trembling, and he almost fainted on the spot.

The two women, Shalina and Shalucy, were also frightened, their faces were pale, and their eyes showed endless fear, in the face of such a terrifying desert lion ant, they had no chance of surviving.

These desert lion ants are incredibly destructive, and even the hard, elastic skin of the sandworms is extremely resistant to magic, and their sharp teeth cannot be resisted.

Among the people, only Li Qing was calm, and he didn't care about those desert lion ants at all, and Tianhuo looked even lazy, lying on Li Qing's shoulder, bored watching those desert lion ants gnaw on the corpses of the sand worms. And Fox originally looked nervous and frightened, but seeing Li Qing so calm, he gradually calmed down his panicked mood.

The mercenary spirit of the Ling Feng Mercenary Regiment was already terrified to the extreme, and they couldn't imagine what it would be like for those terrifying desert lion ants to crawl on top of them and gnaw at their bodies.

I only heard that a few mercenaries from the Ling Feng Mercenary Group could no longer bear the fear in their hearts, and screamed loudly, "Run!"

After saying that, he pulled his legs and ran, so that it caused a chain reaction, and they all began to run in a panic, seeing those mercenaries so unbearable, Lyman couldn't help but be anxious and angry, and shouted to stop.

Moko also shouted: "Don't run, don't move!"

Lyman is also worthy of being an excellent leader of the mercenary group, and immediately angrily ordered all members of the group not to act rashly, and those who disobeyed the order were immediately expelled from the mercenary group.

Only then did everyone slowly calm down and return to their original order, Mo Ke hurriedly said: "Don't move, those lion ants' eyes can't see, they rely entirely on hearing to track and catch their prey, I hope they won't pay attention to us, otherwise, I'm afraid there will be no hope at all!"

When the mercenaries heard this, they immediately didn't dare to move for half a minute, for fear that if they moved, it would cause a crazy attack from the desert lion ants who were frantically biting the corpses of the sandworms.

But what everyone overlooked was that they could stand still, but those desert camels were not controlled at all, and when they felt the terrifying aura of those monsters, they had already run wildly and fled in all directions.

The mercenaries had no choice but to let the camels run wildly, while their water and food were still on top of them.

At this time, the huge sandworm corpse had been completely eaten by the desert lion ants, leaving only a huge skeleton, and those terrifying desert lion ants seemed to hear the movement here and rushed towards this side.

As far as the eye could see, a piece of black oppression, like a dark cloud covering the sun, rushed to this side, and there was a palpitating "hiss!hiss!" sound, and everyone seemed to see that they were torn to pieces by those demonic beasts, and their flesh and blood were blurred.

The mercenaries couldn't help but tremble, their strength was so weak in front of thousands of demonic beasts, they didn't have the power to resist at all.

In just an instant, thousands of desert lion ants had already arrived in front of them, and everyone couldn't help but turn pale and slowly close their eyes to welcome the coming of death.

But after a while, he found that there was nothing at all, and slowly opened his eyes, only to find that everyone was already floating in the air, and those dense terrifying desert lion ants were frantically frantically flocking to those camels from under their feet.

Everyone was relieved at this time, and when they looked up and saw Li Qing naturally floating in the air, they realized that it was Li Qing who saved everyone's lives.

Only Li Qing is a magician here, and it must be Li Qing who casts the magic of the wind system and makes everyone float in the air, so that he can escape this catastrophe.

Everyone couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, and they were all grateful to Li Qing in their hearts, if Li Qing hadn't entered the Yellow Dust Desert with them, they would definitely have died in the desert here this time.

Everyone didn't doubt why Li Qing didn't chant the spell when he cast the magic just now, and they were all excited to be able to survive the catastrophe.

In fact, this little trick is not worth talking about at all for Li Qing, as long as he raises his hand, he can easily destroy all the demonic beasts, but Li Qing is indifferent by nature and doesn't like to attract attention, so he pretends to be a magician, making people think that he is just magic.

It seemed that the desert lion ants were indeed out of sight, ignoring the crowd above them, and they all flocked to the fleeing camels, and in the blink of an eye, the camels became a pile of bones.

When everyone saw this, they didn't dare to gasp, for fear that those desert lion ants would find them floating in the air.

Countless desert lion ants surged into the distance like a black torrent, and disappeared into the horizon in the blink of an eye.

After the terrifying monsters were completely gone, everyone slowly descended from the sky and stepped on the hot and soft sand again.

All the mercenaries looked at Li Qing gratefully, and Lyman walked in front of Li Qing and said with a grateful face: "Thank you, if it weren't for your help, I'm afraid we would all die here!"

Li Qing smiled slightly and said, "We are all in the same team, this is what I should do!"

And Salina looked at Li Qing with excitement and admiration, her expression was very complicated, and her heart was full of young love for Li Qing, this handsome man can always do unexpected things at critical moments.

Fox and Moko next to him admired Li Qing very much, and Li Qing was always unexpected, making people unpredictable.

Moko steadied himself, then began to look at the scattered items, and said loudly, "Let's take a look and check, how much water and food are left!"

When everyone heard this, they remembered that the camels still had water and food on them to cross the desert, and they ran towards the carcasses of the camels to check how much was left, and if there was no water and food for crossing the desert, it would undoubtedly be self-defeating.

Li Qing saw that Mo Ke could calm down so quickly and began to check all the remaining equipment, and couldn't help nodding secretly, he couldn't imagine that Mo Ke was so calm and sophisticated at the age of fifteen or sixteen, and he really didn't lose to those battle-hardened old rivers and lakes at all.

After a period of busyness, the mercenaries brought back all the remaining things, the water bag containing the water was half broken, almost half of the water was lost, and the food was fine, almost nothing was lost.

It was the mounts, the desert camels, that is, if they kept going, entirely on their feet.

Moko nodded to what was left, and his face couldn't help but become heavy. Seeing Moko like this, Ryman and Boss Mattoni both stepped forward and asked, "How is Moko?"

Moko replied in a deep voice: "This water and food could have supported us to cross this desert, but now that our camels are gone, we can only rely on our feet to move along the way, which must slow down our progress a lot, consume more water, and it may be difficult to cross the desert!"

When everyone heard this, they all approached and discussed whether to move forward or retreat to Ace City, which were the two scenarios they could choose.

Lyman and the others and Mattoni got together to discuss and decide where to go.

Lyman asked Mattoni in a deep voice, "How is Boss Mattoni, what is your opinion?"

Mattoni groaned and said, "Those demonic beasts just now went in the direction we came from, if we go back, it is possible to encounter those demonic beasts again, I think it is better to move on." ”

Lyman pondered for a while, thinking about it, if he encountered those magical beasts again, he was afraid that he would lose his life if he was not careful, and with this magician from the sky, there should be no problem.

However, Lyman still asked Li Qing cautiously and said, "Brother from heaven, what do you mean?"

Li Qing smiled faintly and said, "I have no opinion, I think you should ask the desert guide Moko's opinion, after all, he is the one who really understands the desert, if it is up to him to decide, I think it is the right decision!"

When Lyman heard this, he hurriedly asked Moko, who pondered for a moment and said: "I think we should move on, first, we don't know if the food and water we have left can last to Ace City, second, those demonic beasts have just passed by, we should not be in any danger, third, after walking for a few days, we can find another oasis where we can replenish water and food, and fourth, that is, you must have something very important to do if you want to cross the Yellow Dust Desert, if you go back like this, won't you give up halfway!"

When Lyman and Matoni heard this, they secretly said in their hearts, indeed, if they go home like this, then everything they have done before will not be in vain, how can they be willing?

After discussing with each other, they finally decided to move on and cross the Yellow Dust Desert.

Lyman ordered everyone to sort out all the equipment, and the equipment continued to embark on the unfinished adventure, Li Qing and the others were also very relaxed, there was not much equipment at all, so it could be said that they traveled lightly.

Li Qing's cultivation didn't need any water and food at all, only some fine wine was put in his Bodhi ring, which was secretly put in by Tianhuo, a big drunkard, if there was no good wine along the way, it would really kill him.

After this thrilling life and death experience, everyone finally realized the horror of the desert, and without Moko's guidance, they probably would not have been able to escape the dangers hidden in the desert again and again.

The mercenaries settled down and continued to move forward under Moko's leadership.

Without camels to walk, the crowd could only move slowly on their own feet, the hot sand shining through their shoes, and their feet ached.

Only then did everyone realize that without camels, it was so difficult to travel in the desert, and the physical strength was rapidly consumed in the scorching sun, and the lips were even more dry and cracked.

Compared with the previous few days, it was really a hellish torture, and the only one who was relaxed among the people was Li Qing, Li Qing exerted some mana slightly, and then floated on the sand, clinging to the sand, and if he didn't pay attention to it, he couldn't detect it at all.

The only flaw is that everyone walks with deep footprints in the sand, and only Li Qing has no footprints at all.

However, the mercenaries didn't pay attention to this detail at all, and if they did, they would definitely be surprised, knowing that it was not surprising for a magician to cast wind magic, but if he could hold on quietly for a day, how powerful would it be to support it with spiritual magic.

Finally, at night, the group set up camp in a leeward place, some of the tents were broken, but they were barely usable, and it was still possible to block some wind and sand.

As the sun sank in the west, the night began to cover the land, and the temperature began to plummet, a bonfire was lit in the desert camp to dispel the cold of the lonely night.

It is not a miracle that the Ling Feng mercenary group has entered the desert for so many days, but there has not been a single casualty, which is mainly due to the help of Moko, the guide, and Li Qing.

Many of the mercenaries were exhausted after a hard day's journey, and fell asleep in their tents, only a few of them stood alone around the vigil, although they were tired, but they had to be, in the dangerous desert, no one knew what would happen at night.

Li Qing took advantage of the free time of the desert night in the past few days, and also taught Fawkes and Moko some special martial arts that combined vindictive spirit and magic.

Li Qing only felt that these knowledge seemed to be innate, all of them existed in his mind, and he didn't need to think about it at all, it naturally appeared in his mind, just like his own hands, completely controlled by himself.

Mo Ke was even more grateful to Li Qing, you must know that magic and fighting spirit can only be learned by nobles, and untouchables like them are not qualified to learn at all, even if those nobles want to learn a little high-level fighting spirit and magic, it is quite difficult.

Now that he can be taught by Li Qing, he is naturally speechless for his gratitude to Li Qing, it can be said that it is the biggest adventure in his life, and Mo Ke can be said to have practiced hard wholeheartedly.

And Fawkes was originally a fighter, and he already had a deep understanding of Douqi, and the quality of Douqi could be said to be very clear, but now when he heard Li Qing's explanation and teaching, he was even more shocked in his heart, and he never thought that magic and Douqi could be cultivated like this.

Li Qing's words can be said to have opened a new door for him and allowed him to appreciate the unknown and mysterious realm.

The silent night of the desert passed peacefully, the sand on the ground quickly warmed up, and the blazing sun slowly rose from the horizon.

The group began to set off through the Yellow Dust Desert.

They had been walking in this desert for ten days, except for the occasional appearance of a few cacti and small demonic beasts that infested the sand, there was only the yellow sand of cotton, and there was no end.

The crowd is running out of water and food, but there is no oasis to replenish the water source, and many mercenaries are already on the verge of collapse.

Suddenly, a large lush forest appeared not far away, so delicate and colorful, full of temptation, you can clearly see the trickle flowing between the forests.

The mercenaries cheered and ran frantically towards the oasis, their physical and psychological hunger and thirst no longer caring for them.

However, they found that although this oasis seemed so close, no matter how they ran in front of the oasis, this oasis seemed to be playing their jokes again, and it was out of reach.

Moko also saw that something was wrong with the situation, and immediately shouted: "Listen, everyone, this is a mirage, it's just a mirage!"

Lyman and the others immediately stopped, looking at the oasis in the distance tiredly and suspiciously, they couldn't believe that it was just a mirage, but in the desert, what Moko said was absolutely authoritative, and only he could lead them out of this vast desert.

However, some mercenaries did not believe that everything in front of them was a mirage, and the extreme thirst had made them lose their minds, and even the cries of Lyman and the others fell on deaf ears.

Lyman could only send someone to capture those mercenaries one by one, but after such a fuss, their physical strength was consumed faster.

When the mercenaries returned to the group, Moko explained, "What you see is just a mirage, just a refracted illusion, like projecting the scenery of a place onto a huge mirror, no matter how much you chase it, you can't reach it!"

After a pause, he continued, "Many desert travelers have been bewitched by such visions and have run to their deaths!"1.
