"You are all top students from European universities, while I am a small-scale businessman whose entire fortune is tied up in this shipment. Could you please help me out? I beg you!"

The merchant's posture of bowing while sitting on the camel was somewhat comical, with his belly bulging with fat.

But students at European universities really like this approach.

"Don't worry, bro, I've got you covered!"

"We are all high-level mages, protecting your goods is more than enough for us."

"We're friends now that we've met, and we'll naturally help each other if there's danger!"

The two sides immediately became very friendly, and the atmosphere was wonderful.

"There shouldn't be any tricks this time, right?" Heidi looked at Xu Fang, unsure of herself as she said this.

Xu Fang hesitated for a moment.

“Just tell me, I can accept it,” Heidi said.

“Then I’ll say it: the reason why businessmen hire students from European universities is partly for safety and partly to reasonably squeeze the bonuses from hiring mages. Look over there.”

Xu Fang pointed, and Heidi looked in the direction he was pointing.

The mercenary group had stern faces, as if someone owed them two million, muttering things like "What good are students?" and "If something really happens, you have to rely on the mercenary group."

The honest girl Heidi was deeply shocked.

"Don't be so discouraged. There are still many good people in this world, like the one right in front of you."

Xu Fang pointed to himself and gave a healthy smile.

Heidi: "..."

I'm even more frustrated!

······

The closer they got to Cairo, the wetter the sand became, and the camel's large hooves gradually became useless, slowing its pace.

“Let’s walk!” Ferrero said.

"No, no!" Old Hara quickly said, "Snake demons and scorpion demons can sense the fluctuations of different creatures. They have no interest in camel-like beasts, but once they land, they will definitely track them by sound!"

You could say Old Hara is greedy, but you can't say he's incompetent. After all, for a mid-level mage to be a desert wanderer, he must have some skills.

A heavy, oppressive cloud hung overhead, swirling and threatening to unleash a torrential downpour that would engulf the desert at any moment.

The air was filled with an indescribable stench, unlike the common smell of sand in the desert, but a more intense and pungent odor.

It was as if the air was thick with the scent of decay and death.

The stench assaulted everyone's nostrils. Walking in this environment was no different from being surrounded by maggots in a sea of ​​excrement.

"vomit!"

With a dry heave, many women in the group took out the rare flower dew that Ferrero had given them and sprayed it on themselves.

The smell suddenly became complicated and strange, making one want to sneeze.

"Everyone, be careful. Snake Mountain is three kilometers ahead. We must not disturb them!" Old Hara said in a low voice.

"What is Snake Mountain?" Heidi asked curiously.

"I learned about this in my morning class. Snake demons are social demons. A female snake demon is often surrounded by seven or eight weak male snake demons, and several female snake demons may be surrounded by a powerful male snake demon at the same time."

The top-ranking female demons and the bottom-ranking male demons were ignored by all; they either made do or relentlessly pursued each other.

Xu Fang said casually, pointing in a certain direction in the distance.

Heidi has good eyesight, but at this moment she would rather be nearsighted and wear beer-bottom glasses!

snake!

A bizarre little mountain made entirely of snakes!

Its outer contours wriggle, and every now and then something rolls and falls off from it.

Heidi felt so uncomfortable just thinking about the image of the snakes intertwined together that old Hara had just described that she wished she could rip her brain out and wash it clean!

"Snake demons are very sensitive to smells, but don't worry, we're facing upwind, so they probably won't..."

On the other side, before Old Hara could finish speaking, his eyes widened instantly, and his face turned deathly pale.

What did he see?

The snake mountain dispersed and surged in this direction!

"How, how is it possible!"

Old Hara could hardly accept what was happening before him, then suddenly realized:

"I understand! It's that rare flower dew! Its scent will attract all the female snakes, and once they come, all the male snakes will follow!"

Ferrero, of course, was unwilling to take the blame and hurled insults at them.

"Enough nonsense, give me all the rare flower dew you have!" mercenary captain Chad said coldly, summoning his armored beast at the same time.

"Sorry, old friend!"

He stroked the head of the armored beast, and everyone present instantly understood his meaning. Chad clearly intended to use his summoned beast, with which he shared life and death, to ensure everyone's safety!

"Old Captain!" someone said, unable to bear it.

"No need to say anything more! Once you've accepted the mission and taken the money, you must be loyal to your duties!"

Chad took a deep breath and was about to pour the Miracle Dew onto the armored beast.

Just then, Xu Fang's voice rang out from the side: "Wait a minute!"

Chapter 512 The Brother's Success is Heartbreaking

With a flick of his hand, Xu Fang sent out a swarm of dust storm demons.

The desert environment is paradise for dust bugs, who happily frolic under the blazing sun.

—The joys and sorrows of humans and insects are not the same.

No one knew about the existence of a poisonous space. In the blink of an eye, they saw Xu Fang throw out a large swarm of poisonous insects, a truly terrifying sight.

there is only one truth!

"He fed the insects with his own body?" a student asked, his voice trembling.

An image flashed through his mind: Xu Fang's figure appeared unusually distorted in the dim moonlight.

His body no longer seemed to be solid flesh and blood, but a warm bed nourishing endless life.

Suddenly, his skin began to wriggle, like a creature underwater desperately searching for an exit.

Countless insects began to emerge from the crevices of his skin, densely packed, wriggling and twisting, like a black torrent surging forth.

These insects varied in shape; some were as thin as threads, others were round like small balls, and their bodies shimmered with a dark luster under the moonlight…

"Ah!" the man exclaimed.

Xu Fang glanced at him disdainfully and said, "You call me Egg!"

"Come on, everyone drink up! What's the point of drinking so little? Drink more, and then go inside and roll around in the mud!"

Following Xu Fang's command, the dust storm monsters drank and wasted the rare flower dew like water pumps, making Ferrero's lips twitch with heartache.

Xu Fang didn't mind the cost; in fact, he thought it was too little, and that outsiders would think he couldn't afford it. He said, "Give me another bottle, one worm per bottle!"

"Fly in that direction, did you hear me?" Xu Fang pointed, and the Dust Storm Beetle, carrying a fragrance, flapped its wings and flew away.

"A mirage!"

A water-based star map lit up around Xu Fang, and several figures instantly appeared on the outer edge of the Dust Storm Demon Grass, which were projections of Xu Fang and the others!

"Let's go," Xu Fang said.

The group quickly urged the camel to leave. The camel was more intelligent than ordinary livestock, and sensing the danger, it sped away.

"Thank you for your selfless contribution, brother. In that case, the money for these poisonous insects will be on my tab." The merchants smiled broadly.

The snake population was so large that even if the people from the European universities could protect their personal safety, they might not be able to keep such a large quantity of snakes safe.

If they can't keep their stock and make money, what's the difference between them and being dead?

Xu Fang sighed: "Never mind... As long as everyone is safe, that's good. As for Ah Huang, Wang Cai, Ah Fu, Dou Dou, Le Le and Ma Mao's fate, we can only leave it to fate."

"Yes, yes, yes, we will definitely show you our sincerity," the merchant said through gritted teeth.

Dogs, giving these random names, isn't it just to show affection and get more money?

Unbeknownst to him, just a few kilometers away, the dust storm demon, which was originally doomed, flapped its wings and greedily devoured the flesh and blood of the snake demon.

Almost in the blink of an eye, the giant snake demon was gnawed down to a white skeleton.

The other snake demons tried to escape, but they couldn't escape at all.

They racked their brains but couldn't understand why they had suddenly turned into poisonous insects when they were chasing a group of humans.

Every time the snake demons tried to fight back, these damned poisonous insects would either fly into the sky or burrow into the sand or even into the demons' mouths!

······

Under the cover of the dust storm monsters, the group arrived in Cairo without incident.

Compared to the previous New Sussex, Cairo finally looks more like a battle city.

No matter how fierce the fighting was outside, or how glaringly red the markings on the map were, the people inside the city continued with their daily lives as usual.

For someone who has been wandering in the wild for a long time, choosing a nice hotel, taking a good bath, and having some drinks to relax is the most urgent thing.

"Don't try to take it from me, this time it's my treat, we'll all stay here!" Zhao Manyan said, pointing to the largest building on the street, the Qitian Building.

It's a fool not to take advantage of a bargain, especially since Zhao Manyan, that rich bastard, is hiring a presidential suite, the kind that costs over ten thousand a night!

In the evening, Xu Fang meditated as usual, focusing his energy on cultivating his ice magic.

His goal is to successfully depict the constellation within a month, master its release within two months, and then go to Europe in the third month to smash Hecas's head.

He was getting caught up in the infighting, and Mo Fan was the first to get restless.

"Mo Fan, let me tell you, don't believe all the hype online about how great the 'T-shaped' thing is. I, Zhao Manyan, am saying this right here: whoever wears it for a day will definitely stink..."
