Chapter 126 Fish in the Sand
It has been three days since I left the mausoleum of the gods. After Xiuer experienced the vision, he never encountered any visions in the mausoleum. It seems that the other party invited them into the mausoleum to show everyone this history.

Although it was not certain in the end which of the four gods summoned them, everyone guessed that it should be the God of Water, or the God of Oasis, who was no longer in the tomb.

After all, the bodies of the other three gods are still in the mausoleum, and they are probably dead. Only the missing water god can be sure that she still retains consciousness. She left a little power in the mausoleum, allowing Shuer to see the past. Everything can be explained completely.

No one can understand why the gods want everyone to see this. Is it to tell everyone something in a subtle way?Or do you simply not want the history of the lizard people to be completely forgotten with the destruction of the world?

As for the voice that Xiuer heard before leaving the illusion, and the specific content about the Great Rift, he has not told anyone for the time being, and it should not be the time yet.

Since a lot of time had been lost, as soon as they left the mausoleum, the Shadow Chaser team began to rush towards the established goal, which was the nearest escape point.Everything about Zhuying this time is full of evil, the environment is weird, the situation is weird, the mission is weird, no matter how you look at it, it is abnormal. Even if you can leave this world one day early, it is a good thing.If we hadn't encountered fatal danger so far and everyone still had a glimmer of hope, I'm afraid that once the escape point was found, Shuuer would have ordered a direct escape. As for the mission, the gods, and the secret behind the great rift that destroyed the world , just roll aside.

Therefore, the Shadow Chasing Team resumed their daily life of staying up at night and setting off every day as soon as the sunset sandstorm passed. They dug a cellar and got in before the sunrise sandstorm arrived, and traveled at least a hundred kilometers overnight.

The only thing that gives people a headache is the undead.

Xiu Er has seen it in the illusion. The undead are always active at night. If you choose to travel at night, even if you are lucky and don't run into them head-on once or twice, you will still encounter them if you go more often.The undead don't care what their purpose is. Once they meet, they will fight until one party falls completely.

Today is another day of bad luck, this is already the second battle.

Encountered the undead twice in a row. The first time was okay. The undead were also wandering around. The sound of bones rubbing against each other was very obvious in the silent night. Saff caught him from a distance. Everyone simply chose to take the initiative and attack the undead. Launched a surprise attack and won easily.

However, the second game was not so lucky. The group of undead did not move at all, but remained motionless under the sand layer, whether they were sleeping or in a daze.

Due to the blocking effect of black sand on energy, shadow chasers hiding in cellars will not be sensed by the undead outside. Similarly, undead hiding underground will not be sensed by shadow chasers on the surface.Even a necromancer like Militi, who is extremely sensitive to dark energy, could not sense the undead below through the black sand. She did not realize it until the undead were awakened by the vibrations on the ground and emerged from the soil. Sensing the presence of dark energy.

Fortunately, in the projection of another world, as long as it is not a closed environment that has been confirmed to be absolutely safe, Shuer will never let the team take off their guard. Therefore, the moment before the undead appeared, Macajron, who noticed the shaking on the ground, issued a warning signs.

Not even a second passed, the shadow chasers were ready to fight, and as soon as the undead appeared, they were hit head-on.

"Damn, these ghosts are really troublesome." He took back the throwing ax and breathed heat into his hands desperately. The temperature in the desert night was extremely low. He was holding a cold metal weapon, even with the physical fitness of a warrior. He would also feel cold, "I have never hated the undead as much as I do today. After returning home, I will use this reward to set up an undead crusade association. As long as I see a moving bone, I will kill it with an axe."

"The undead are meant to be dead, idiot." How can we be good brothers if we don't attack each other? The halfling picked up a lizard head and threw it over, "Do your job well, if you keep making such noise, be careful to kill more undead." Wake up."

"You little hairy idiot, what the hell do you know, do you think the undead can wake up with their voices? Do you think..."

"Mia, help."

"silence."

The two idiots shut their mouths decisively, but...

"Eh?" Macajron discovered the problem after a few seconds, "It seems there is no magic effect."

"As long as the goal is achieved." Mia gave the two noisy guys a cold look, "Or do you miss the real silence technique?"

"Okay, stop making trouble, skip cleaning the battlefield and move immediately."

Xiul has concluded in the past few days that the undead can fly in sandstorms, but except for some special species, most of them fly slower than sandstorms, and they will be thrown away after flying for a while.After landing, the undead immediately began to wander aimlessly all night until the next sandstorm arrived, so...

"Try to avoid staying in the same position for too long and get out of the battlefield quickly. Kelly, recover your physical strength, Mia, Militi, don't be stingy with potions now, stay in top condition at all times."

Xiu'er's heart was bleeding. When he thought of these words coming out of his mouth, Xiu'er had the urge to cry in his arms. Unfortunately, he still had to use what should be used.

"Saff, location."

"We'll be there soon. We're still five kilometers away at most. If we keep going at the current speed, we'll arrive in 10 minutes."

"you sure?"

"Huh?" Sav was stunned. Xiuer always believed in her judgment unconditionally. This was the first time he asked her this. "It's nothing, just saying casually." Xiure waved his hand as if he really just said it unintentionally, but if you look at him from the front, you will find that his expression is not relaxed.

"Kelly, follow closely. Your position is half a meter behind. The formation will be affected." These days, Xiuer is still very satisfied with the female priest as his client. Although day and night are reversed and it is very hard, she has never She complained and never caused anyone any trouble. In addition to pity, everyone's attitude towards her also improved a lot.

"Moria, the situation ahead."

"Visual safety."

"Mobak, physical condition."

"Don't worry, captain, old Mo Buck is the best. When..."

"Shut up, Macajron, 23 degrees front left, 500 meters, reconnaissance behind the dunes."

"Understood, boss, I..." The halfling's pupils suddenly shrank, and a sharp voice spread throughout the entire team, "Enemy attack!"

This time, the alarm came too late, because he didn't feel the extremely weak ground shaking until the last moment.

It was really the last moment. He hadn't even finished shouting a word. Just at Kelly's feet, the ground paved with black sand was suddenly broken. A black shadow appeared at the same time as his warning, like a tearing piece of silk. The sound of breaking through the air, from bottom to top, stabbed towards the female priest's lower abdomen like lightning.

Experience determines everything. Kelly had no time to dodge and didn't even react at all. The time was too short. She didn't even know that the person being attacked was herself. The black shadow was only a few centimeters away from her, and her eyes began to move downward.

Fortunately, Moria was right in front of her, and the deer adopted the most personal and brutal rescue method - kicking her away.With a stabbing sound, Kelly's priest's robe was torn open, but fortunately her body was not injured.

The injured person was Moria. While the black shadow tore Kelly's clothes, it also scratched Moria's calf. The gold-level warrior's skin was easily broken open, and blood poured out from the wound.

"Oh, my glasses." When the little deer was injured, Safu let out a short exclamation. Her glasses were snatched away by a hand from the side. It was Shuer's hand, but she knew that Shuer There is only one reason to do this, "Who's hurt?"

Although she couldn't see anything clearly, and although she was still asking questions, the female swordsman had already raised her great sword, and she focused all her attention on her ears, looking for any faint abnormal sounds.

"It's a deer, it's okay."

The moment before Moria was injured, Shuer had already predicted that she would be cut, and it was too late to help. Shuer could only choose to grab Saff's glasses to prevent her from going crazy because of the blood. After all, we needed it now. is a calm Sapphire.

While putting away his glasses, Shuer caught Kelly who was kicked towards him and threw her back onto Moriah's back. That was the safest place for Kelly. As for what Moriya had suffered. A minor injury would not affect her fighting ability.

"It has burrowed back into the sand. Watch your step." Being suddenly attacked is something that shouldn't be done, but now is not the time to complain or blame. Shuer immediately left his position and calmly controlled the situation, "Don't just Staring at one place, there may be more than one enemy."

"Boss, what is it?" The few people in front could not even see the attacker. Even Macajerun, who was the first to sense the vibration, immediately warned and turned back, only saw a shadow, visible to the attacker. The speed is amazing.

"The leader is a human, and the attacker is the undead." The more dangerous the situation, the more necessary it is to relax the tension to avoid making mistakes in the rush. Shuer suddenly swung his hammer and hit the sand with one hammer. "It's a fish in the sand, dead." of."

The fish in the sand naturally refers to the strange creatures that everyone has seen in the illusion before, which are used as mounts by the lizard people. They can use the desert as an ocean and swim freely in it. Unexpectedly, they will become undead even after death. , they still retain this ability, and their swimming is even more flexible than when they were alive, so flexible that they do not even emit weak vibrations.

"Keep the formation moving as a whole, follow Merit's guidance, and constantly change positions. Don't let them pierce the soles of your feet directly."

"Watch and help each other, and rescue each other in time, especially the two mages."

"Sense the vibration yourself. If you can't sense it, use your eyes to see it. If you can't see it clearly, just listen. Don't rely on Macajron. It's too late to give a warning."

"Attention, here we come."

"Chichichichi", the sound broke through the air one after another, and dozens of black shadows broke out of the sand, cutting through the silent night.
