Chapter 1 The Wasteland Boy I

ADH (After Darkest Hour) 319
7/1

Wasteland, Huanglong Desert.

The heat wave rolled back and forth on the golden sand dunes with high temperature and flames, and the desert was smoked like a huge furnace. No creature dared to be exposed to such a harsh environment for a long time.

This causes them to rapidly dehydrate, then become comatose, die, and eventually be dismembered by scavengers.

Suddenly, the sand stirred slightly, and a taupe head emerged from the bottom of the sand.

This is a sharp-clawed sand lizard, a level I monster, one of the weakest creatures in the desert, with a ring of scales of different sizes growing around its head.

After the sharp-clawed sand lizard got out of the sand, its legs stood upright, and it quickly ran on the sand.

It needs to reach the next hiding place as soon as possible, otherwise the high temperature will make it close to death.

But the sharp-clawed sand lizard had just sprinted halfway, and suddenly stopped as if it was caught by something.

It's spider silk!
The sand rolled, and the sharp-clawed sand lizard struggled desperately, but it was in vain.

Not far away, a sand-yellow spider emerged from the sand and quickly crawled towards the trapped prey.

This spider is the size of a washbasin, sandy yellow in color, similar to the color of a desert, and can blend in very well in the environment. There are dark red flame patterns on the back of the huge abdomen.

The eight fiery red eyes are like eight tiny gems.

This is the fire-weave hunting spider, a second-level monster that can spray flames from its mouth to attack enemies, and can also attach a layer of flames to its fangs to bite its prey.

When the fire pattern hunting spider is attacking, the flame pattern on the back will light up, which is very conspicuous.

However, what the fire-striped hunting spider is best at is laying a spider web under the sand, and then waiting for the prey to come to the door.

The sharp-clawed sand lizard screamed in panic, but the more it struggled, the tighter the spider silk entangled, and the more sand stuck to its body, which made it more difficult for the sharp-clawed sand lizard to move.

In the blink of an eye, the fire-striped hunting spider had already rushed in front of the sharp-clawed sand lizard.

Facing the threat of death, the sand lizard let out a menacing neigh.

At the same time, a weak fluctuation of spiritual power appeared on it.

It was obviously entangled with spider silk and sand and could hardly move, but the yellow sand around the sharp-clawed sand lizard still moved.

The sand climbed along the body surface of the lizard like a creeper, covering the lizard in an instant.

Immediately afterwards, the sand condensed and lithified, turning into a hard rock formation in the blink of an eye.

This is the innate ability of the Clawed Sand Lizard. It can control the sand to cover itself with a protective layer. However, the Fire-striped Hunting Spider doesn't care about the hard protective shell condensed by the Clawed Sand Lizard.

The flame patterns on its back seemed to be on fire, and red psionic particles spewed out from the roots of the fangs, instantly adding a pair of "fire teeth" to the fire pattern hunting spider.

With a soft "呲", the fire pattern hunting spider jumped in front of the sharp-clawed sand lizard, and easily bit through the rock formation on the sharp-clawed sand lizard.

Black smoke rose, the high temperature melted the rock, and the smell of burning protein floated from the rock formation. The next second, the rock formation disintegrated, revealing the sharp-clawed sand lizard inside.

At this time, the sharp-clawed sand lizard had been bitten by the fire-marked hunting spider, and the wound was scorched black, motionless, apparently dead.

The deadly toxin is injected quickly, and it won't take long for the venom to decompose the body of the sand lizard and turn it into a juice full of nutrients for the fire-marked hunting spider to suck.

After finishing the hunt, the fire-weave hunting spider began to rearrange the traps.

The traces of the battle were quickly erased, and after a while, this small piece of sand returned to its original state.After doing all this, the fire-weave hunting spider dragged the dead sharp-clawed sand lizard towards the cave.

Although the hunt was easily completed-the sand lizard had no resistance under its fangs.

But this does not mean that the fire-striped hunting spider is very strong, it only means that the sharp-clawed sand lizard is too weak.

In this desert, there are too many creatures more powerful than the fire-stripe hunting spider. In front of these creatures, the fire-stripe hunting spider and the sharp-clawed sand lizard are not much different, both of which are at the bottom of the food chain.

Therefore, the fire pattern hunting spider did not dare to stay outside for too long.

Now that it was delicious, the fire-weave hunting spider rubbed its feet excitedly while dragging the carcass of the sharp-clawed sand lizard.

However, halfway through the climb, the Fire Pattern Hunting Spider suddenly stopped, and then struggled in pain. The flame patterns on its back seemed to be short-circuited, flickering on and off.

In the distance, the ground was lifted up suddenly, revealing a vigorous figure, which turned out to be a sand blanket covered with gravel.

A young man rushed out from under the sand blanket, pulled out the dagger tied around his waist, and ran towards the Fire Pattern Hunting Spider as swiftly as a leopard.

The boy looked about sixteen or seventeen years old, wearing a sand-colored camouflage uniform and a camouflage cap. He had a well-proportioned and vigorous figure, dark skin, and handsome features. Although he hadn't fully grown, he was already a handsome embryo.

A distance of hundreds of meters flew by, and the dagger in the boy's hand was suddenly covered with a bright silver light.

Under the scorching sun, the dagger glowed coldly.

The young man rushed in front of the Fire Pattern Hunting Spider, held down the almost motionless Fire Pattern Hunting Spider with one hand, and held the dagger with the other hand, aiming at the Fire Pattern Hunting Spider's head and stabbing it hard.

With only a soft and smooth sound, the dagger easily broke through the hard shell of the Fire-stripe Hunting Spider, and pierced into the Fire-stripe Hunting Spider's brain.

The next moment, the juice shot out, and the hunting spider twitched frantically.

But as the young man stirred the dagger lightly, a large number of central nervous system was destroyed, and the flickering fire patterns on the surface of the fire pattern hunting spider soon ceased to light up.

Its eight bright red ruby ​​eyes also quickly lost their light.

From showing up to killing the Fire Pattern Hunting Spider, the boy's movements were quick and precise, in one go, as if he had practiced it hundreds of times.

Call ~
The young man let out a long breath, with a look of joy on his face.

His name is Li Yue, he is 17 years old, and he is from Shatiebao.

Sand Iron Fort is the largest human gathering place in the vicinity, with a population of more than [-]. It possesses extraordinary power, and the number of extraordinary people exceeds [-].

As the name suggests, a superhuman is a human being who has mastered supernatural powers and possesses various incredible abilities.

Li Yue is an extraordinary person.

Although he was only the weakest Level I Transcendent among the Transcendents, he was still able to easily kill a Level II Flame Hunting Spider by relying on traps and equipment.

And for an extraordinary person like him, there are more than 1000 people in Sand Iron Castle.

These more than 1000 extraordinary people are the fundamental strength for Sand Iron Castle to gain a foothold in the barren and dangerous Huanglong Desert.

A little red light began to emerge from the body of the fire pattern hunting spider, and the red light merged into a small galaxy and floated into Li Yue's body.

This is spiritual energy, which can be obtained by killing monsters.

Of course, the premise is that you are a Transcendent.

Absorbing spiritual energy can strengthen one's own extraordinary power, which is the fastest way for an extraordinary person to become stronger.

Feeling the comfort of spiritual energy pouring into his body, a smile appeared on Li Yue's slightly immature face.
