Chapter 113: Town in the Desert (Two in One)
The sky is blue, the ground is a monotonous earthy yellow, and other than that, no other colors can be seen. Everything seems to be in a dead silence.
"The current ambient air temperature is 42℃, please pay attention to replenish water."
The smart phone sounded an alarm.
"Is it too hot?"
42℃ is the air temperature, and the ground temperature is even higher.
Kurosawa wore a straw hat, stepped on the cracked land, and half-squinted his eyes to look into the distance.
The visible heat waves in the air surged like sea water.
Although he was mentally prepared before entering this area, the degree of heat was beyond his imagination.
He was now in the Great Rift Valley, with towering brown rock walls on both sides and a riverbed that had long been dried up under his feet.
After crossing this Great Rift Valley, he officially entered the Ugu Desert area.
However, according to the planned route, he would not go deep into the Ugu Desert, but would only walk along the outermost edge for a while, and then head east to the coast.
Kurosawa took out the water bag from the storage bracelet, took a big sip, and did not forget the little Shining.
Feed it a little.
Fortunately, he filled up the water source when he passed the last town.
It is a little sunburned now, but it is not short of water.
As for the nightmare, it is hiding in his body at the moment.
It hides in Kurosawa's body and can constantly bring him a cool feeling similar to air conditioning.
Unfortunately, this is more of a spiritual feeling and cannot offset the high temperature of the real outside world.
"Dudu"
The little Shining drooped its head and flew listlessly beside him.
Because the ground was too hot, it had not landed for a long time.
Kurosawa looked at the little Shining and shook his head.
In fact, it was not necessary for it to suffer with him, and it could enter the flash card.
Kurosawa's safety was also guaranteed because of the existence of the hidden nightmare.
But the little Shining was very stubborn and insisted on sharing the joys and sorrows with him.
He failed to persuade it, so he could only let it go.
After replenishing water, Kurosawa checked the map on the smart phone and continued to move forward quickly.
According to the map on the smartphone, there is a small town at the outermost edge of the Ugu Desert where you can get supplies and rest after leaving the Great Rift Valley.
He hopes to reach the town as soon as possible.
It was already afternoon when he walked out of the huge rift valley.
The climate became worse.
The dry and hard riverbed under his feet turned into soft and endless yellow sand.
Walking in the golden desert in a boring way.
The end of the sand dune is still the sand dune.
Beige sand sedge plants and various Artemisia plants dot the sand, and there is not much green.
In the visible range, apart from him and the little Shining, there are only tumbleweeds that keep rolling.
They wander around in the desert, and only when they reach the moist soil will they settle down and take root again, and wait until the drought starts to roll again. They are truly lonely "travelers".
In places that cannot be seen by the eyes, more creatures and elves hide in the deeper sand to reduce the intense sunlight during the day, and they will not come out until night.
Kurosawa's perception ability dropped significantly in the desert. Because of the sparseness of plants, he didn't get much information using them as a catalyst.
Just as he was about to gather his super perception of the power of nature, he suddenly felt something strange in the sand dunes in the distance.
Curiously, he approached and found a man lying on the sand.
He was wearing khaki clothes and was motionless. From a distance, he looked like he had merged with the sand dunes.
Kurosawa bent down and turned the man's body over.
"Shuishui."
He closed his eyes and repeated his words instinctively with his cracked lips.
It looks like the signs of life are relatively stable.
Of course, this is only now. If he leaves it alone, it will definitely die.
Kurosawa didn't hesitate too much and immediately planned to lend a hand.
Because there were endless sand dunes nearby, there was no shady place to move directly to shade.
So he could only take out the tent in the bracelet, set it up temporarily, and then helped the man in, while opening the front and back curtains to keep ventilation.
Recalling the first aid methods for heat stroke learned in the physical education and health class at school.
He raised his head, unbuttoned his clothes slightly, and wiped his whole body with a cold towel to cool down.
Use the universal healing spray to treat external injuries.
Give him some light salt water later to correct electrolyte imbalance.
Kurosawa handled it in an orderly manner.
This may be one of the benefits of becoming an elf master.
Even without elves, he has become a more stable person.
If it were his previous personality, he would have been panicked and flustered.
During Kurosawa's first aid treatment, the man's condition gradually improved, his high fever dropped, and his heartbeat returned to normal.
Kurosawa silently observed the man.
From the facial features of the man, he was not old, and looked like he was in his twenties or thirties.
His skin was tanned and red, and it was obvious that he had lived nearby for a long time.
There were some spiritual fluctuations in his body, not too strong.
But there was no elf around him, was he lost in an accident?
After half an hour, the man regained consciousness.
Although he was dazed during the heat stroke just now, he could still vaguely perceive the outside.
He soon realized the current situation.
"Thank you for saving me."
The man tried to stand up with difficulty to thank Kurosawa, but failed and was supported by Kurosawa.
"It's okay, it's just a piece of cake."
Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda.
It is impossible for Kurosawa to ignore a person who fainted in the desert in order to save some time.
He handed a bottle of mineral water to the other party.
"Are you a resident nearby? How did you fall here?"
Kurosawa asked curiously.
In the face of his question, the man did not hide and told his experience.
He lived in the outpost town on the outskirts of the Ugu Desert, which was the town Kurosawa was heading to now.
Although this small town located in the wild area is nominally under the jurisdiction of the Alliance, it is actually more of a free-range state.
There are many scattered elves gathered in the outpost town, some of whom have registered their information with the Alliance, and some have not.
The world is bustling, all for profit; the world is bustling, all for profit.
The elves will spontaneously gather together, naturally because of profit.
Although the Ugu Desert is not a suitable environment for living, there are a lot of resources and opportunities buried in the yellow sand, and precisely because of the harsh environment, the difficulty of development by the Alliance is much greater than the resource points near the city, which is a major benefit for ordinary elves.
As a result, countless "desert gold diggers" have flocked into the Ugu Desert.
This man named Duan Fugui is a dream chaser living in Qianshao Town. He has worked diligently for many years and bought a house.
However, when he went out to transport goods recently, he was unfortunately robbed by the Sand Bandits.
Not only were the goods he was transporting lost, but even the only sand seal and flash cards and other personal belongings were gone, and the loss was heavy.
Fortunately, he saved his life.
The Sand Bandits are undoubtedly an illegal organization with complex members. There are criminals wanted by the alliance hiding in the Ugu Desert, and there are also various ruthless people who want to quickly plunder resources.
The Sand Bandits are rampant in the vicinity, specializing in robbing elf masters who explore and search for treasures, and sometimes they also attack the town's freight team.
Duan Fugui may have encountered an external team, and they did not take his life when robbing the goods. Of course, they may also feel that without the existence of elves, he was beaten up and left in the long desert. There is no difference between death.
It's getting dark.
Night falls.
Hei Ze did not choose to continue moving forward.
A bonfire was lit on the spot.
Listening to Duan Fugui's sharing of his experience, Hei Ze sympathized and sighed.
Although he has not yet encountered evil illegal forces, it does not mean that they do not exist. He must be more careful during outdoor adventures.
No words were spoken all night.
The temperature difference between day and night in the desert is very large.
Hei Ze couldn't help shivering when he got up early in the morning.
After breakfast, he felt much better.
He took Duan Fugui to Qianshao Town.
Duan Fugui's job in the town is similar to that of a "freight driver", but his transport vehicle is not an ordinary truck, but a sand seal elf that can quickly shuttle in the sand.
Now, his sand seal has been robbed by the sand bandits, and he plans to return to Qianshao Town first, and then decide what to do next.
He has some savings at home in the town, and even if he does not continue to be a "freight driver", there are other options.
This is a microcosm of the lives of many low-talented elf masters, who have psychic powers and can control elves.
But the privileges of contracted elves do not mean that they can be superior to ordinary people.
They still need to work hard for a living, but the nature of their work has more to do with elves.
If you don't reach the professional level, you can't be considered an elf master.
Duan Fugui followed Hei Ze step by step.
The figures of the two people gradually went away in the desert.
In the early morning desert, the creatures that come out at night have not yet hidden back in the sand.
But the elves and various poisonous creatures along the way were frightened by the momentum emitted by the little shining spirit, and they scattered wherever they passed.
Duan Fugui looked at the little shining spirit flying in the sky and opened his mouth slightly.
Although he had guessed that Hei Ze's strength was not simple, he was still shocked when he really felt the powerful attribute fluctuations emitted by the cute elf.
So strong?
His own spiritual power is not strong, but if he hasn't eaten pork, has he seen pigs run?
As a community with people coming and going in Qianshao Town, he has come into contact with many professional elf masters.
He was sure that almost none of the professional elf masters he knew could train elves to such a powerful level.
He looked at Kurosawa walking in front of him with some envy.
As for negative emotions such as jealousy, he didn't have any.
On the one hand, Kurosawa saved his life, and on the other hand, he was now 30 years old and mature, and had long passed the age of dreaming. He had a clear understanding of his talents and strengths.
Accepting one's own ordinariness is a proof of maturity.
Keep moving forward along the sand dunes.
At about noon, Kurosawa climbed over a sand dune, and the outline of the outpost town in the distance appeared in front of him.
Kurosawa raised his mouth and breathed a sigh of relief.
Finally arrived.
"Brother, do you want to rent a sand seal? It's very convenient for traveling and treasure hunting. Let's find out."
The slender sand seal rolled flexibly in the sand, and the thin man solicited passengers.
"No, thank you."
"Freshly arrived oranges, freshly arrived."
The ten-meter-high thick earth wall surrounded the town.
Outside the city wall, merchants in groups of three or four were shouting loudly, and there were also sand seal drivers soliciting customers.
People here were dressed tightly and wrapped themselves up to reduce the impact of strong ultraviolet rays.
Kurosawa was dressed relatively coolly and was very conspicuous.
Although he also felt that the weather was abnormally hot, his skin was surprisingly resistant to the sun.
Except for a slight darkening, there was no sign of burns.
Hei Ze walked around the city for a while. Many vendors set up stalls and shacks outside the city wall, and the flow of people was not small.
This is probably because of the superior geographical location of Qianshao Town, which attracted so many people to come here.
The town is located in a desert oasis.
Groundwater gushed out to form a lake, which made the surrounding water grass and trees grow lush, and there were even cultivated farmlands.
Everything looked lush and full of vitality, and it was completely impossible to tell that they were in the desert.
Duan Fugui brought Hei Ze to the front gate.
Two guards stopped them, and Duan Fugui found his ID from the lining of his shirt.
"The residence permit document proves that there is no problem, go in."
"Wait, you can't go in. You are not a local, right?"
Just when Hei Ze wanted to follow Duan Fugui into the city, he was stopped by two guards.
The two guards guarding the gate were wearing uniform white uniforms, with two desert millipedes crawling at their feet, and their long faces were tense and unsmiling.
"Do you need me to register your information?" Kurosawa was very reasonable.
"No, for a period of time in the future, townspeople without long-term residence permits will not be able to enter. If you want to rest temporarily, you can go to the residential area outside the city." The guard said coldly, and at the same time, the desert millipedes at his feet slowly stood up and made a hissing sound.
The residential area outside the city is the shantytown.
Kurosawa scratched his head.
Helplessly, he could only show the professional elf master certificate of the alliance as a last resort.
The two guards took the thin card, read the information on it, looked at each other, and one of them started to operate the mobile phone to query.
Soon they found Kurosawa's public information on the official website of the alliance according to the number.
"It is true."
After confirming that the certificate information was correct, the faces of the two instantly became respectful.
"Excuse me, sir. Please come in. Please bear with me. The situation in the surrounding area has changed recently. Strictly checking people entering the city is also an order from the top."
The value of the professional certificate of the alliance is naturally beyond doubt.
The guard immediately opened the door to convenience.
The status of the professional level is not comparable to that of ordinary elves, especially in such a remote town.
"Thank you." Hei Ze put away the certificate.
There was not much expression on his face.
Smoothly walked into the city.
The streets in the small town are clean, the thick walls block the wind and sand, and there are cleaners who clean regularly, so it looks very clean.
The town law enforcement team is patrolling in various districts in the city. Most of the shops on the street are closed, and there are not many pedestrians on the road.
"What happened in the city? Do you have any clues?" Hei Ze felt the tense atmosphere in the city and asked Duan Fugui, a local beside him, curiously.
But Duan Fugui also shook his head, looking confused.
"I've been away from Qianshao Town for several days, so I'm not too sure about the current situation. Everything was normal before I left."
Hei Ze declined Duan Fugui's invitation to stay at his home. When he was about to look for a hotel in the town, a law enforcement officer in a white uniform came up to him and leaned over to say respectfully.
"Lord Hei Ze, the mayor wants to see you."
