Chapter 358 Desert Bandit

"Huh...the desert is really not a place for people to stay!" Roger poured a large bucket of water on his head, and sighed while shaking the water droplets on his head: "The air is so dry, it is almost drying people out!"

Roger used to have a few documentaries about deserts on earth, but he didn't understand how harsh the environment is until he was actually in the desert. 【】

During the day the sun was scorching, and the temperature was high enough to cause a coma; at night, it was so cold that the average person could easily freeze to death.It is also thanks to Roger's current strength that he is not weak, so he can persist until now.

The biggest problem in the desert is naturally the lack of water. Looking around, there is a desert of yellow and clear. Not to mention water, there is not even a green color that indicates the presence of water.Roger thinks that people in this environment are not only physically dehydrated, but more importantly, psychologically dehydrated.Like him, he would wash his head with clean water from time to time to enjoy the rare moment of coolness.

This is all thanks to Roger's castle hub with an astonishing capacity, and he has already loaded a lot of water and food before departure, so he can do such a "luxury" thing in the desert.When ordinary people travel in the desert, they even count on drinking water. Even if their beard catches fire, they can only use sand to extinguish it. How can anyone wash their head with water more than ten times a day like Roger?

Sophia liked the hot desert environment very much. Of course, she didn't agree with Roger's words. Instead, she opened her arms to face the hot wind and said happily: "The weather here is so nice, it's so comfortable, I wish I could live here forever!"

It is also strange to say that although the time in the desert has not been short, Sophia has not been affected by the harsh climate here at all.Her skin was still clean and smooth, and her plump lips did not appear to be shriveled in the slightest. Even her skin was still white as before, as if the vicious sun had no effect on her at all.

Looking at Sophia's radiant look, Roger had to secretly sigh that the physique of the giant dragons is strong, which is definitely the favor of the Supreme God for them.In contrast, he himself was not so good, and the harsh climate of the desert even affected Roger's magic pet.

Roger's reconnaissance weapon, Hippogryph, was the most severely affected, which also has something to do with them being the weakest monster under Roger's command.This kind of black iron monster could fly continuously in the air for most of the day, scouting a large area.But after entering the desert, the time they spend in the air is greatly reduced.They fly for at most three or four hours each time before going back to the animal training ground to rest.This greatly reduced the range that Roger could detect, and it also caused him to enter the dry desert for several days without finding anything.

"I really don't know where their supply line is!" Roger looked up at the sun hanging in the sky, and said with some embarrassment, "This desert is so big, how do we find out when to go!"

"Let me explain first, don't play tricks on me!" Sophia, who was intoxicated, immediately said, "Don't just ride on my back and fly around if you don't have anything to do. I am a dragon, and I can't afford to lose such a person!"

"Hey...why didn't you say that last night, and you kept asking me to use force?"

Roger's words made Sophia's pretty face blush, and then she said coquettishly: "Do you understand these two things? If you dare to make fun of me about this, in the future... don't even think about coming here at night ride me!"

Roger was a little apprehensive when Sophia performed this unique trick, and he quickly laughed and said, "Isn't it just a joke, as for taking it seriously? There are no outsiders here!"

"Hmph!" Sophia, who had regained the initiative, was in a good mood. She snorted coldly and was about to speak, but Roger had already said: "There is an oasis not far ahead, let's rest there tonight!"

Roger can know the location of the oasis, naturally all thanks to the Hippogryph hovering in the sky.After getting along for this period of time, Sophia already knew a lot of his secrets, so she wasn't surprised at all.The two had been in the dry desert for several days, and this was the first time they had found an oasis.Sophia was also very curious about the oasis, and immediately agreed with Roger's decision.

Roger took the lead and ran towards the oasis, followed by Sophia.However, before reaching the shadow of the oasis, Roger let out a little surprise and said: "A group of people arrived first... Hey, there are still people chasing them."

After listening to Roger's words, Sophia also became interested, and asked curiously, "Are we going to fight?"

"The group of people in the back are all riding sand beasts, and their knives are ready." Roger at this time is like a live commentator: "The people in front are also preparing to fight, and they must fight!"

"Great, let's go!" Sophia said excitedly, "If they fight hard, we'll join in!"

As soon as Long Nu finished speaking, she urged the horse to speed up and run forward, and Roger hurriedly hit the horse to keep up and said, "Who are we going to fight?"

"Is there any need to ask? Of course we will help whoever loses!" Sophia smiled at Roger and said, "If the strengths of both sides are similar, we will... fight both sides!"

Although the climate of the desert suits Sophia, it is too chatty here.After entering the Dry Water Desert for several days, except for Roger, the two horses, and those Hippogryphs circling in the sky, Dragon Girl has never seen other living creatures at all.

Besofia is a member of the strongest race in the world, but in fact, some aspects of her personality are like girls, she likes to be lively and do weird things.Otherwise, how could Sophia subdue all the pirates in the first place and set up a red dragon pirate group to earn money for herself?No matter how much the other giant dragons love money, they will never mess around like Sophia.She did this out of her lively nature. Now that there is finally something exciting to watch, how could the lively Sophia miss it so easily?

At this time, the two of them were not far from the oasis. After turning over a sand dune, a small oasis was already in sight.

On the edge of the oasis, a team of sand beasts is hastily forming a defensive formation. Judging from the heavy luggage on the back of the sand beasts and the presence of men, women and children in the team, this team of sand beasts should be A common caravan in dry deserts.

And chasing this caravan is a team of sand beast knights.This group of people are all capable and strong men, and the Sand Beast doesn't have any heavy luggage on its back, but everyone is wearing a scimitar and a long bow. They are desert robbers who kill people in the dry desert.

The desert bandits drove the sand beasts to run wildly around the caravan's temporary camp, screaming and shooting arrows at them.A few desert robbers spotted Roger and Sophia not far away. They shot a few sharp arrows without hesitation, but they didn't expect that doing so would bring disaster to themselves.
