Quantum Godhead

() The howling wind mixed with sand and dust destroyed the ruins on the roadside. Although it is located on the southern border, due to the obstruction of the mountains and the wall of wind and sand around the windy canyon, all the wind and sand in the northwest are deposited near the vent of the canyon. It is the most severely desertified place in the empire.

However, a quarter of the empire's vast territory is desert, and the Wind Canyon does not belong to any nobles' territory, so no one bothered to manage it, and simply moved all the residents to the intersection of the Oasis Trail. Yorktown is like this born.

A group of people wrapped in sand-proof burqas walked along the oasis path, which can accommodate three or four carriages side by side. There are desert thorn trees on both sides of the road. The strong water and soil retention ability of thorn trees makes this road full of vitality .

It is difficult to set up sentries on the oasis trail. The thorn bushes on the south side are connected to the wind and sand wall. Rat-like smugglers can dig new passages anywhere on the road. They have enough patience to spend several years opening a new passage. Secret passages.

"That's it. I've been using this road for almost 10 years and no one has found it. Now it's cheaper for you! Sally." The sand dwarf Gorazon said sullenly. She knew this secret passage, so it was like giving it up to her.

Gorazon pawed at an inconspicuous place at the corner of the road for a while, and pulled out a large pile of dry thorn vines, but those vines were stained with brown potion by him, and they looked no different from the surrounding thorn trees.

In no time he had made a hole through which to pass, and Gorazon kicked the ogre's ass, causing it to crawl in on its stomach.

"Let Alua take the lead." Gorazon explained: "Those highly poisonous sand lizards are small in size, but they are in groups, and the venom can't be prevented from splashing in all directions. But this poison is ineffective against Arua. "

Hearing his words, the female elf Sally's eyes narrowed. The arrow she shot into the palm of the ogre was so poisonous that an ordinary ogre would fall to the ground if it touched it.But the ogre didn't respond at all.

"As soon as we hear the sand lizard's voice, we will immediately stop everything and blow this." Gorazon took out some whistles made of bones and handed them to the people behind. "Wait for the sand lizards to disperse before moving on. Don't make unnecessary movements to stimulate them."

Sally also put out some weird whistles, obviously she has a lot of experience.The ogre crawled forward clumsily, wriggling its buttocks, and the men walked in behind it one by one.The prostitute hired by the sand dwarves frowned. She looked at the other women in the team. These employers are really interesting... She might not be able to deal with it in a while...

Gorazon was last, and he carefully re-camouflaged the entrance with dry thorns.Even professional scouts would not be able to spot the clues if they hadn't been informed in advance.

Not long after they left, a weird big-headed sand lizard emerged from the thorns beside the road. Its head was twice as big as its body, but its movements seemed quite flexible. The thorny tree vines drilled.

"Damn it... the head is stuck...!" Heras cursed in his heart. He set off with those burqa men early this morning, and surrounded them from a distance. After entering the oasis trail, he transformed into sand lizard.For this reason, he drank a bottle of precious potion that strengthens the recovery of mental power, which can double the natural recovery speed of mental power in the next hour.But even so, he can only transform for less than two hours.

Compared with the lizard's head, the limbs were very short and struggling to hold on to the thorns. Heras finally broke his head from the dry camouflage vines, and then he quickly crawled forward among the relatively sparse thorns on the side wall of the passage.

The dense thorns all around blocked the sunlight, and the light in the passage was insufficient, making it very shady.Gorazon carefully observed his surroundings, and there were constantly rustling sounds of something passing through the bushes.

"Here we come." He thought nervously in his heart. Although he had gone deep into the wall of wind and sand many times, every time these poisonous lizards appeared, his heart still tightened. The venom sprayed wildly can even corrode the protective spells of official mages.It's not easy to hide in this narrow space.

Heras also felt the gathering of lizards, and one even crawled up in front of him. The lizard tilted its head and looked at its strange kind curiously. The big head began to observe.

Heras held his breath, no matter attacking or being attacked, the mage's transformation state would be destroyed. If the sand lizard sprayed poison on him, his disguise would be exposed immediately.But his worry seemed unnecessary, the sand lizard was just curious, it kept scratching Laheras' big eyelids with its claws, which made him very itchy.

"Clack...clack..." The sand lizard's throat vibrated, and it barked at Heras a few times, and Heras also imitated it barking a few times.After a while, the sand lizard lost interest in him, turned its head and crawled over to the burqa men in front.

"Don't move, don't move! Blow the whistle gently!" Gorazon said hurriedly and carefully.Then dense and weird whistles sounded, the sound was like the sound of a torrential rain hitting a thornbush.The lizards shook their heads, which was their subconscious reaction. When it rained, they would quickly hide in their nests in the trees.Some lizards scratched their cheeks with their front paws, apparently unable to understand why the water hadn't dripped from them yet.However, out of instinct, the lizards that gathered gradually dispersed.

Gorazon was relieved to see the lizards crawl back to their nests. "Let's go later..." He mouthed silently.The hired prostitute looked quite nervous. She had never been in the thorn forest, and she was so startled by the sight that she put her hand over her mouth to keep herself from screaming.But her hand was accidentally scratched by the thorns outside the passage, and the severe pain caused her to let out a short scream.Those retreating sand lizards immediately looked over there.

"It's over..." Several experienced adventurers showed desperate expressions, and before they could do anything, the venom sprayed from all directions poured down.

"Damn it! Don't let the guide die!" A burqa man shouted, and a wall of green flames suddenly appeared above the crowd, blocking all the poured poison and evaporating it.The second-level spell, Burning Barrier, but the person who released it was obviously a bloodline warlock. Because of the power of his blood, this spell looked a little different from the general Burning Barrier, and its power was doubled.

The wall of fire burned a lot of thorns, and the field of vision became wider.The dark chestnut-haired young man named Guido hastily took a handful of powder from his arms and poured it into his mouth.Then his body emitted a strong pungent sulfur smell, and the sand lizards obviously hated this smell, and fled to places with fresh air on the top of the tree.

"Take the wounded and run! This won't last long!" Guido yelled, and they ran towards the front of the passage, and the lizards were smoked and crawled far away wherever they went.

"Don't leave me...Golasson! Please..." A man in Gorazon's team was unfortunately sprayed with venom on his back, which not only corroded his clothes and armor, but also kept falling. His body penetrated, and he fell to the ground limply, pleading desperately forward.

Gorazon seemed to be unable to hear. He wished he could grow four legs now.Looking at this scene, Guido cursed and turned around to help the fallen adventurer, and poured him a bottle of potion.Seeing him turn back, the fleeing people also stopped in their tracks. Now they rely on the smell from Guido to drive away the sand lizards, and they don't dare to go too far away from Guido.

The man looked at Guido gratefully. It was the blessing of the gods that such a benevolent employer could meet him.After Guido poured him a healing potion, he threw him to a man in a burqa. "Carry him and go! Don't fall behind!" After hastily giving the order, a group of people rushed to the depths of the passage in a hurry.

Heras hid in the sparse thorns and watched the show. These highly poisonous sand lizards, not to mention the people in front, even he found it a little troublesome. Their smells would attract each other, and the blood scattered after killing a group would be Let more of the same kind come over, it is endless.The defenders of the empire buy this thing every year and stock it in the wall of wind and sand, which makes the smugglers a headache.

Those galloping sand lizards passed around Heras from time to time, and the special sulfur smell stimulated them to scurry around, all they wanted was to breathe fresh air.One sand lizard even told Hellas to go by with his tail in its mouth...  

"These things are quite united..." Heras groaned in his heart, flicking his tail a few times to break free, the sand lizard saw that he didn't want to leave, so he didn't care about him anymore, just caring about himself escaped.

After running for a while, the sand lizards had basically dispersed. Gorazon made a gesture to make those people slow down, and finally got rid of them. If they made any noise, another group might be attracted.

"Just rest here for a while, and treat the wounded first." When he reached a fork in the passage, Kido said calmly.

A low sob came from the crowd, and the prostitute could no longer bear the fear and guilt in her heart. She covered her mouth with both hands, but she still couldn't stop crying.

"Shut up!" Gorazon growled, if he was not afraid that the smell of blood would attract more dangerous creatures, he would have wanted to kill the woman who almost killed them right now.

Guido patted the prostitute on the back to comfort her a few times, and then poured a few drops of concentration potion into her nostrils.The prostitute's mood gradually stabilized, she looked at Guido gratefully, and murmured: "Thank you..." She has decided to try her best to satisfy the young man as a reward.

Those adventurers looked at Kido differently, full of respect and trust. They had never seen an employer who cared so much about an adventurer's life.

Heras, who had been hanging behind, even felt a little sympathetic to those poor adventurers at this moment, obviously they didn't know what they were going to face next.He is now convinced that this passage was opened up by the people of Beale's family, and it has been used by Gorazon to make a living during the ten years of waste.

"We need to find a flat and wide open space and set up a tent to rest. Who knows where there is such a place?" Kido asked.

The prostitute smiled a little, she thought she knew what rest meant...

"The gaps in the wind and sand wall can barely accommodate a few people to lie down at most, there can't be a flat and wide open space." The female elf Sally frowned.

Gorazon struggled for a while, then gritted his teeth and said, "I know a place, it's at a fork in this passage, follow me..." Although he didn't want Sally to know the secret, the employers obviously If you make them happy, that kind of cheerful person might get more extra commissions.As he said that, he got up and passed the ogre, and took the lead in walking in from a side passage.
