Chapter 213 Desert Ruins
Fangyuan Great Desert, at a glance, is full of monotonous yellow everywhere, not even a single tree. The vastness of the desert makes Tingshu and his party feel extremely tired, as if they will never go out.
In fact, this is just an illusion. They have only entered the desert for a short time, but the surrounding environment has deeply affected their psychology.
It was the first time for Terrance to walk in the desert, and it was rather novel and powerless at the same time. Yes... Except for the elf Reggie Locke, this desert did not interest him at all.
It was almost noon, and the sun was rising so high that the desert was smoking. By this time, Terrance had already drank a large bottle of water.
"How far is it?" Earring trainer Ziyuan said hoarsely, it was too uncomfortable, and sand was blown past from time to time, this is simply not a place for people to stay!
"I... I can't hold on any longer..." The dark-skinned Ada wailed, even if he had traveled in the past for several days in a row, it would not be painful to walk in this desert for half a day.
"These four animals..." The two stared at the other four with wide eyes, extremely surprised.
Zhen Ji, Shi Tai, and Ah Wen are nothing more than that, they should have dealt with this kind of environment all the year round... But Terrance, apart from his bored expression, hardly showed the same pain and helplessness as them.
"I'm convinced!" Ziyuan drools, his eyes flashed suddenly, and he said hastily, "Look, tree... tree..."
"What kind of tree—" Zhen Ji looked over, in the boundless desert where the sky is blue and the ground is yellow, except for blue and yellow, there is no other color to be seen... a little bit of green emerges, Made everyone rub their eyes.
Zhen Ji was the first to react, and she said: "That should be a grass-type elf thorn ball cactus, look, is it moving?"
A few people looked over, and sure enough, the green was constantly shuttling through the sea of sand, and there was a touch of yellow on the head of the green...it was the symbol of the spiny ball cactus.
"So it's not a tree..." Ziyuan said rather bored, he thought he would see something novel, but he didn't expect it to be an elf.
"Hehe..." Shi Tai said, "I should be lucky to meet a spiny cactus in the desert."
"Why?" Ah Da and Zi Yuan were puzzled.
Both of them are ordinary trainers, and their field experience is naturally not as rich as that of Shi Tai and the other three. Faced with this statement, they immediately had doubts.
"Hey...Ting Shu, aren't you curious?" Awen looked at the indifferent Terrance and asked.
Terrance adjusted the goggles, "I know, but we brought enough water, and the spiny cactus didn't help us that much."
"Ah?" Ada and Ziyuan were still puzzled.
"Well...Ting Shu, you know quite a lot." Zhen Ji was surprised, and then explained to the other two: "Because of the special body of the spiny ball cactus, their bodies are very suitable for storing water."
"Without any water, they can live in the extremely hot desert for at least a month with the internal storage."
"So if you stray into the desert and don't prepare enough water, you'll be lucky if you encounter a spiny cactus. The water in its body can be decomposed, which can save a life when necessary."
"And spiny cacti appear in large numbers in the desert. If they walk in the desert... it means they have enough water resources." Terrance added.
"One more thing, unilaterally asking for thorn ball cactus will not divide your water... Water is also an extremely important thing for them. Unless you encounter a particularly friendly thorn ball cactus, you can only negotiate with them after taking them in... ..." Shi Tai said.
The three members of the adventure group spoke clearly and logically, analyzing how to use the surrounding environment in the wild.
Terrance is also listening. Although he has some understanding of this aspect, plus some elf knowledge that the breeder knows... Although he can have some insights into some aspects, it is not as real as what others experienced personally.
"It's almost here..."
Facing the map, Zhenji made gestures a few times and came up with a route. She was pleasantly surprised: "The 'Desert Ruins' is ahead!"
"Really?!" Several people were overjoyed.
The desert ruins is where a few people are going.
In the Fangyuan Great Desert, there are at least 10 relics that have existed since ancient times, but Reggie Locke can only exist in one of them.
And after entering the desert, it is difficult to determine the direction and location. Fortunately, although the desert is large, as long as you keep walking in one direction, there is enough water and food, and with the help of elves, there is still hope to get out of.
"Is this it?" Shi Tai asked.
"I'm not sure... But according to the hints from the super-ancient texts we got from those two places, we have outlined the four most likely routes, and this is one of them!"
"A quarter of a chance..."
The so-called desert ruins are very similar to caves. They are completely composed of stones, covered with wind and sand, and look dark and gloomy, giving people a bad feeling.
"Whoosh—"
When they came to the entrance of the ruins, several people hadn't entered yet, even Terrance and everyone were shocked, startled by the shadow that suddenly jumped by.
"It's a mountain rat, don't be nervous." Seeing the strange lines in the sand, Terrance immediately said.
"I knew...it must be the elf..." Ziyuan scratched his head, obviously still brooding over what happened just now.
"Be vigilant - next, we all need to release a small elf with good flexibility to ensure our safety."
"The inside of the ruins is very dark, we must be careful, and most of the wild elves in the desert...almost all live in the ruins, so we must not be careless. We count as intruders, and some elves will not be very friendly!" Ah Wen Dao.
Ah Da released a bamboo hat mushroom and followed him.
Ziyuan released a Chuanshan King... an inexplicable match with this scene.
As for Terrance, he just nodded, and the dream monster had already followed him when he entered the desert.
"My elf is wrist strength...don't underestimate it, it is specially bred by us to destroy obstacles...it depends on whether we can move smoothly." Shi Tai said.
Terrance looked over, and found that this hand with wrist strength was very muscular, not inferior to ordinary strength, and it was covered with medical bandages, which seemed to be very important to hand maintenance.
"Come out, natural bird." Zhen Ji also called out her elf, and she said: "My natural bird can predict danger, our safety... we all depend on it."
"Hehe... Although I am the trainer in the adventure group, my elf is it... the electric firefly." Awen hugged a fat bug and said, "The road ahead is very difficult. Not suitable for foreign objects such as flashlights... but with the help of electric fireflies, our path will be bright-"
