Chapter 207 Wood Dynasty Chapter Infatuation
Eli sat down slumped, and everyone in the hotel looked at him. He didn't know what kind of request made this tough guy willing to give up those dazzling crystals, and even gave up all the income he had risked his life for a month.

He slowly said: "It was a gloomy night ten years ago. I was hunting in the desert in the north of the city. I chased a sand leopard hard for five days and nights. The water was not exhausted, and my skin was a little dehydrated. It lasted two days, so I was very patient and continued to chat with the leopard, who would have thought that something thrilling would happen in the next hour."

After a pause, Eli's eyes were full of misery, and he told the whole story.

At that time, the night sky was full of stars. Due to the thin atmosphere of the devil star, the starlight was very strong at night. Travelers who went deep into the desert often confirmed their direction through the stars.Observe that the sand leopard in the distance is carefully lurking on the edge of a sand dune. This guy is very cunning, knowing that someone is following it, and acting carelessly, he is actually judging the pursuer's position through the air.

Eli moved his numb arms, and the pores of his body shrank to the extreme, which can reduce the evaporation and diffusion of sweat and heat energy, which most of the modified people in the desert can do.

He is stabilizing his breath and skillfully avoiding the eyes of the leopard. Now it is a protracted battle of endurance. The skin of the sand leopard is a treasure, and it is not easy to attack with long-distance weapons. Eli needs to find an opportunity to shatter it with powerful explosive power at close quarters. Skull, and can't hurt a little skin, so that its value can reach the highest.

The stars in the night sky suddenly went into a trance. At first, Eli thought it was a hallucination caused by his long-term running and exhaustion. It turned out that it was not the case at all. A figure flew down from the sky and went straight to the sand leopard. In the blink of an eye, the leopard let out an angry roar But halfway through it turned into a mournful sob, the sound of dying was still echoing in his throat, and the leopard's eyes were already lost.

Eli witnessed the whole process of the incident and hurried over. He was young at that time and only thought that the leopard was his prey and yelled at the leopard to return it.

Under the night sky, he suddenly found that it was a woman. A long gown fell to the ground and was dragged on the sand. The woman was so beautiful that it was indescribable. Eli only remembered the gentle and peaceful eyes, which made him instantly lose his ability to speak, and his entire mind They were all absorbed in the woman's eyes, unwilling to wake up for a long time.

"Those who can get it, I killed the leopard." The woman's voice was cold, as if a basin of cold water had been poured on Eli's head in an instant. , Only then did he realize that the back of his chest was soaked in sweat, and he was so horrified that he screamed in his heart.

The woman seemed to have seen through Eli's mind, and said with a ecstatic smile, "I just came here, and I haven't eaten for a long time, help me grill this thing, so that I can taste your handicraft."

These words are very natural, like whispering in one's ear, Eri is a tough guy who is really like mud, no matter how you rub it, he is as obedient as a well-behaved kitten, even forgetting the woman's cold voice just now .

At this point in the story, Ellie's face was reddish. As the saying goes, a hero is sad when he meets a beautiful woman. He met a strange woman at night and robbed him of his prey. The precious compressed phosphorous powder that was carried with him grilled the leopard meat.

The woman's face was intentionally hidden in the cloak, which made Eli, who wanted to see her face again, very anxious, hoping that she could raise her head, even if she met that sudden and unexpected gaze again, she would be willing, even if she died .

The barbecue was baked in a small pile of high-pressure phosphorous powder, and it turned golden yellow. As for the fur of the leopard, the woman peeled it off somehow. Pay attention.

A cloud of haze floated across the sky, the cloud came at an untimely time, and the surroundings suddenly became dark, but for some reason, the fire burst into a height of more than one meter, strangely illuminating a range of [-] meters, except that it did not shine through the woman's cloak, she Safely put a piece of leopard meat into his mouth, Eli couldn't even see how she chewed it, anyway, the slender fingers made him think about it, and vowed to protect this woman with his life.
There were no dark clouds in the sky, and the haze was not real. A kind of howling sounded in the air, and the howling finally turned into a hoarse sound.

Looking up, Eli will never forget that scene in his lifetime. Countless blood-red large skulls fell with an explosion, and within a few kilometers, it seemed to be suffering from a small meteorite rain. It is conservatively estimated that each skull is also three meters in diameter. It was so shocking that his modified human brain was in the shutdown stage.

Beside the small pile of restrained flames, the woman can still eat a piece of meat in a leisurely manner. Eli can already feel the strong air pressure of those skeleton meteorites. He closes his eyes and waits for the moment of death. His eyes are covered by a strange light, and the desert is like daytime. The light that blooms is stronger than sunlight.

"What's the matter?" Eli's doubts were overwhelmed by the scorching heat from his eyes. The strange light was too strong, and there was a booming sound in his ears. Because the light damaged the retinal photoreceptor cells, even though the recovery ability of the reformed person was amazing, Eli He also covered his eyes and rolled on the sand in pain.

At this moment, I was still thinking about what happened to the woman?Will it hurt?Overcoming the severe pain, Eli crawled out and made sure that it should be the place where the woman was just now. Unfortunately, it was empty, and continued to feel around. There was nothing but the sand leopard corpse.

He wanted to open his eyes, but his eyes were incandescent. Without more than a dozen hours of recovery, the photoreceptor cells might not be able to regenerate. If it were another cyborg, the eyes would have been useless, but the regenerative ability of the Ery cells is amazing, and the flexibility of the muscles is even stronger. Change it at will, and every time he is injured while hunting, he will be the first to recover.

In fact, the damage caused by the strong light was more serious than Eli imagined. It took him more than [-] hours to recover before he could see things again. It can also be said that Uncle Sasha saved Eli's life, otherwise he would never escape the attack of the desert monster.

After a day and a half of recuperation, Eli returned to the place where he met the woman. Except for some slight burn marks around him, he could not find any other clues. Facing the vast desert, Eli felt helpless for the first time, and his heart was in a state of confusion. Ma, from now on, this kid has worked hard to cultivate his physique, traveled through dangerous places, and tried to find the girl he had dreamed of for only one time, but unfortunately he was in vain, and turned a deaf ear to the pursuit of the girl from the same city, because he had already fallen in love with the mysterious girl.

The matter did not end because of this. Half a year ago, the big businessman in the crater revealed that a group of alien martial monks came to Devil Planet ten years ago. Soaring place.

The dream that has been settled for more than nine years has been hooked again. Eli really wants to go to the Honggang Shayu territory to explore. After years of infatuation searching, his footprints are all over the desert. He hopes to look at those bright eyes again. He is willing to give anything.However, several attempts to rush to the destination were blocked by fatal crises. He invested almost all his funds in it, and his body was strengthened several times, but he could not break through from the air or the sandy sea. Like an iron bucket, Eli was sure in his heart that the mysterious woman he had seen before must be a martial artist, otherwise he would not have been able to remain calm in the face of such a strong attack from the sky.

After listening to the infatuated man's narration, Yi Shuihan nodded and said sincerely: "Actually, without your request, I will go to that location to investigate, and then look for some items left by the predecessors. You go to prepare, and then Let's go."

Eli received the exact answer, nodded happily like a child, and shouted: "Okay, I'll go back as soon as I go."

Shasha shook Yi Shuihan's arm and said, "Brother, can I go with you? Shasha wants to learn more."

"Okay, let's go together. Remember not to panic when you see anything. It may be beyond your imagination, but that's okay. As long as you deal with it calmly, Big Brother will help you."

Sasha nodded obediently, and asked for leave to go home to pack her bags. She must be fully prepared for this long trip.

The other reformers in the hotel were all talking about what happened to Eli, looking at Yi Shuihan from time to time, their eyes full of awe, the rule here is to respect strength, and the long days of licking blood with knives made them naturally understand How easy it is to break free from Eli's hand, and how difficult it is to stop the autumn wind sweeping the fallen leaves.

Soon, Eli came back with the package, which contained almost all his belongings, and he was full of hope for Yi Shuihan.

It is very difficult to invite a master to take risks. If you want to find a master like Eli in a thousand kilometers, there is no such thing. Maybe there are even more powerful reformers in the desert oasis farther away, but asking them to do it is definitely a sky-high reward. Rao, even Eri, who is usually very rewarding, is difficult to hire.

Sasha also came back a few minutes later. The little girl's luggage was very simple. A big waistcoat with twisted cross patterns was used as a package, and it was lightly carried on her back, looking very cute.

"Let's go, two, let's compare the speed?" Yi Shuihan was very interested in the reincarnations, and found that all the reincarnations seemed to have completely different abilities, and some were the offspring of the reincarnations, which had special mutations that made them The situations shown are very different. Take the appearance as an example. Because the genes are embedded with different fragments, there are stocky existences like steel, and there are also cyborgs with a figure as flexible as noodles. What's more, Sasha's hair can convert solar energy. Will it be similar to the photosynthesis of plants?Especially this little girl is too small, even Yi Shuihan can hold her in the palm of her hand and dance.

The night in the desert is very cold, which is nothing to martial monks. The three of them bent over and walked quickly. As soon as they stepped out of the city gate, they bent down and jumped more than three meters away in one step. Regardless of Eli's strong body Shuo, but only shallow footprints are left on the sand, and Sasha is even more amazing, her movements are brisk, spotless, and she turns into a blue shadow in a short while, and she reaches the end of her vision in a blink of an eye.

Yi Shuihan's speed was not fast, a little behind the two of them, he observed carefully for a while, and praised Eli and Shasha as worthy of being desert residents, they used as little force as possible while running, forming a chain of air under their feet, bulging Keep moving forward with a unique strength, but there are also shortcomings. This method is only suitable for going straight, and it is difficult to change the direction even a little bit. Fortunately, here is a sea of ​​sand, with a wide field of vision, and there are not many obstacles.

Seeing the key point, Yi Shuihan let out a whistling sound, like an arrow off the string, and rushed over, also imitating the method of the two, using skill to drive the body, touching the sand and then shooting quickly, the feet were soft at first, very uncomfortable, There is always a sense of pent-up energy that cannot be vented, but after running out for more than an hour and gradually getting used to this feeling, Yi Shuihan has a different experience.

Strength does not lie in the amount, but in control, proper transformation, this is the way of power, although I have known this truth in the past, but the real understanding is obtained from this running, which can be said to have benefited a lot.

The three of them ran happily for two hours at a stretch. With Eli leading them, they naturally avoided many trouble spots. Suddenly, the kid stopped and said out of breath, "The front is where the Polish flower bug is, it's very dangerous." , follow my footsteps, don't relax."

Although Sasha is young, she has a natural adaptability to speed. Her forehead was slightly sweaty. She looked at Yi Shuihan.

Yi Shuihan's body strength is ridiculously high. He is considered to be a half-elf, and the elves can be called the oldest modified human beings. Therefore, his genes are very different from those of humans. The DNA is arranged in a double-helix wheel. This amount of activity It was really nothing, his face was not flushed, and he was not out of breath. Relatively speaking, Eli, who has always been good in this running competition, was compared.

There are things crawling under the dunes, which is very unusual, and the distribution is too wide. Yi Shuihan's telepathy extends to the extreme far and has not sensed the border of the dangerous area.
"Polish flower bugs are most afraid of Langqi powder. Follow me carefully, don't step on those protrusions on the sand dunes." After speaking, Eli took out a bamboo tube from the package and poured out the white powder with the breeze, and it didn't take a long time Seeing the effect, Sasha and Yi Shuihan were puzzled, and Eli scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "Maybe this Langqi powder is a little damp, wait a little longer."

Yi Shuihan observed the past carefully, and found that there were very neat protrusions distributed on the sand dunes, like miniature bulges. Huo Di had some bulges sink and sprayed out a sand arrow, which shot down again at a height of 20 meters, and then more bulges were released. Sand arrows.

"These creatures are very strange." Yi Shuihan finally saw that the entire area was full of nests of half-meter-long insects, and the distribution was very regular. These insects can be buried deep in the ground, but they have extremely little demand for air and secrete saliva. The lair is condensed hard enough, much like soldiers building an offensive, waiting to capture passing creatures. If you don't pay more attention, it is really difficult to find the hidden murderous intentions in the endless sand sea in front of you.

More Polish flower insects rushed to the ground, and violently ejected waves of sand arrows, almost forming a sky full of sand and dust, stirring up a miasma of smoke.Eli reminded at the right time: "Be careful, the Polish flowers are about to come out."

Sure enough, a more tyrannical wave of life came upwards from the depths of the ground. Yi Shuihan stood in front of Sasha without fear. Eli pulled out a finger-thick chain from somewhere and made a rattling sound.

This so-called Polish flower really doesn't have the characteristics of a flower. The ground is covered with half-meter-long moths. This thing is like a spider, and it is colorful, especially under the starlight.

The Polish flower is a kind of monster. The shape of its head really looks like a budding flower bud, but it looks very different when it turns around and is wrapped in a layer of fluff. It was disgusting to watch.This monster is 20 meters high, and ten spider thin legs actually stand firmly on the sand to support its huge body without falling down at all.

"Hehe, this thing has grown up again." Eli seemed to see an old friend, but without any hesitation in his hand, he spun the chain and threw it out. After more than a dozen times of "huh", it was set up.

Poland Flower is very familiar with this voice, and wants to retreat, but it's a pity that Eli's skills are superb. The chain snare seemed to fall from the sky with eyes, and immediately tied its ten long legs firmly, and its huge body fell down with a loud crash. , those half-meter-long moths eagerly tried to bite off the chain, but unfortunately the project could not be completed within half an hour, because the chain was sprinkled with Ronki powder, which is a kind of pollen, and the moths would eat away their nerves as soon as they touched it A system is comparable to a deadly poison.

"Okay, let's go." Eli ran frantically, hitting in a straight line. Sasha didn't dare to neglect and pulled Yi Shuihan to follow behind. The Polish flower is very powerful, and the vassal moth is even more difficult to deal with. I'm afraid it will take Yi to kill it. An expert like Shui Han made a move, but relying on wisdom, the three rushed over without any risk.

Eli has prepared a total of eight chains, six will come in handy and two will be spared.It was not until dawn that the three of them walked out of the death area of ​​the Polish flower.

The weather in the sand sea changes as soon as it is said, the wind blows, and the sand dunes move under the force of the wind, but the wind force of the devil star is not very strong, and the three people are buried below the knees to a limited extent, and they stop "doing evil" .

The location of Xuanyuan's tomb has only an approximate longitude and latitude, and it must be searched to find it.Yi Shuihan couldn't guarantee that the goal of transforming the land that was rumored to be shining so brightly was the destination.But having clues is better than looking randomly.

A row of mountain peaks appeared in the distance, with huge rocks, as if the stones of the entire desert were concentrated there.

Eli pointed there and said: "Soon, you will see the Duowa Sand Land after crossing the Meteor Mountain. The area there is more open, and it is the first wave of mountain ranges caused by huge meteorites. There used to be a Meteor Mountain in the Duo Wa Sand Land. , forming a double-clip terrain, blocking the movement of the sand sea, so there are many jungles and giant trees in the crater."

Yi Shuihan listened with great interest. He already knew these materials when he came here, but listening to the introduction of the local aborigines was a different feeling.

There was a clear spring at the foot of Meteor Mountain, and the three of them scared away a group of small beasts who had exclusive access to the spring water and drank it heartily. Sasha's face became even more rosy, and she looked a little more lustrous.

Yi Shuihan found that the two people around him were too good at drinking water, even better than the legendary camels, they almost made a fat man drinking in one gulp.

The modified people living in the sand sea have their own uniqueness in the water intake of the body. At this moment, the water fills all the cells, which makes Salsa look brand new and beautiful.

While the cow was drinking, Yi Shuihan frowned, and something was approaching. Unexpectedly, Sasha and Eli were also very vigilant. The two reformers raised their heads to be alert at the same time, and Sasha gently drew out the weapon.

The rocks rolled down, and something soared down from the jagged cliffs. This thing had scythes and hard wings on both sides, and was shaped like a cow. It was blown by the strong wind and reached the top of its head.
