Chapter 670 Crossing the Sand Sea Alien Base

Dust was flying in the storm, making it impossible to see anything five meters away.

Even if you wear a helmet, the yellow sand from the random riots will penetrate through the gaps in the helmet.

Xu Xin felt that as soon as she opened her mouth, she would eat yellow sand.

But he couldn't help but ask: "I said... cough... we are completely surrounded by yellow sand now. Is this direction really correct?"

After he finished speaking, he couldn't help but take a sip.

Sure enough, it went into my mouth!

"You ask me, how do I know?" Xu Ying turned around and faced Xu Xin. With her back to the yellow sand, at least the oncoming yellow sand would not directly penetrate into the vision gap of the helmet. "You have to ask your Silver King. It is moving now, and its speed has not dropped much."

In front of the two of them, Zhao Xiaochuan was already lying on King Yin's body, his whole body pressed against it.

He has even given up looking forward, relying entirely on the Silver King to move forward on his own.

Xu Xin was speechless.

This guy just messed up.

But also, in the current situation where they can't see anything five meters away, it's useless even if they keep staring at the violent wind and sand and looking ahead at a speed of two to three hundred kilometers.

Moreover, because Xu Xin has a mount contract with the Silver King, even though the Silver King is now extremely fast, he is as stable as a mountain. Except for the oncoming wind and sand, which is really annoying, there is nothing uncomfortable.

But Zhao Xiaochuan was different. This was his first time riding a wolf. At this speed, Xu Xin was afraid that he would be thrown off if he didn't get down and grab Silver King's wolf hair.

It seemed that it was the right thing not to let him ride alone. Otherwise, if something unexpected happened, he might not be able to react at all in his condition.

Xu Ying in front of Xu Xin was much calmer. The Silver King was so fast. Apart from being a little excited at the beginning, she had calmed down now.

"Silver King! Are you sure your current direction is accurate?" Xu Xin immediately shouted in the wind and sand.

Now that the sky is filled with yellow sand, the line of sight is completely blocked, and the purple-black light pillar can no longer be seen.

"Ouch..." Silver King just wanted to open his mouth and scream, but his mouth was blocked by the wind and sand, causing it to shut up on the spot, and even its speed was affected.

But Xu Xin already knew its thoughts through its voice.

It said no problem.

Xu Xin had no choice but to let it go.

In fact, before setting off, Xu Xin brought a compass, a necessary artifact for going out, but...

The compass was of no use at all.

As soon as they arrived outside the World Tree, the compass that was supposed to point south began to shake randomly.

He originally thought that the compass couldn't be used because of the chaotic magnetic field in the area they were in. But when he tried it here, the compass still couldn't work as it should.

Still pointing randomly.

Regarding this issue, Xu Xin has two speculations.

The first is that the World Tree can affect the surrounding magnetic field, making the compass unusable. After all, the only thing the desert here and the jungle over there have in common is that they both have a World Tree.

The second is...

There's a big problem with the geomagnetic field.

The expansion of the earth has caused the geomagnetic field to become disordered. The principle of the compass is to rely on the stable geomagnetic field of the earth to attract and guide the direction. If the geomagnetic field is disordered, the compass will naturally become unusable.

Regardless of the possibility, it resulted in the compass in his hand being unable to discern the direction.

He originally thought that the purple-black beam of light soaring into the sky was enough to serve as a target, and it didn't matter whether the compass could be used or not.

But now that the wind and sand have blocked it, they can only rely on the guidance of the Silver King.

"Keke, do you think the direction is right?" Xu Xin lowered her head and asked Coco, who was curled up in her arms, holding her big tail and burying her head inside.

"Huh?" Coco revealed an eye from the hair of her tail, blinked in confusion, and then retracted it.

All right.

We can only rely on Silver King.

But Xu Xin wasn't too worried about going in the wrong direction.

Even if you get lost or in the wrong direction, with Xu Ying here, you can just teleport back.

What he is worried about now is the speed of Silver King.

This is so fast! But now the visual distance is only five meters!

In case there are any obstacles ahead...

Although the desert is formed by the weathering of rocks, there are basically no whole stones. At first glance, it was all undulating smooth sand dunes, but this speed and this visual distance are still a bit worrying.

Suddenly, a shadow appeared faintly in the yellow sand in front of me!

Silver King's speed was so fast that in just an instant, the shadow appeared within Xu Xin's visual range, which was within five meters!

It was a strange, twisted plant like a twist!

Xu Xin's pupils shrank suddenly!

Before he even had time to say anything, Silver King twisted slightly, passed by the plant, and continued to move forward at full speed without any pause.

"I..." The Chinese essence that Xu Xin wanted to say was blocked by broken sand.

"What's wrong?" Face to face with Xu Xin, Xu Ying, who had been teasing Coco in his arms, raised her head.

Because her back was to the wind and sand, she could speak freely, but she also didn't notice the strange plant that just flashed past.

"Uh...it's okay." Xu Xin felt cold sweat breaking out on her head.

The wind-driven sand penetrated into his helmet, and part of it stuck to his forehead.

Just now...it was so thrilling!

I didn’t expect Silver King’s reaction to be so fast!

By the way, this scene seems somewhat familiar.

He remembered that when he rode Silver King through the jungle at high speed, this was how Silver King avoided the thick trees everywhere.

There are obviously obstacles everywhere in the jungle, but the Silver King can still shuttle through the jungle at its fastest speed. Riding it through the jungle is very exciting.

Unexpectedly, in this yellow sand, the excitement has reached another level!

Just when he was thinking this, a strange twisted Mahua tree appeared in front of him again!

But Silver King turned around again and easily dodged it.

The twisted Mahua tree passed through their poor five-meter visual range like an afterimage and retreated into the yellow sand behind them.

Xu Ying saw it this time: "Ah, it's a worm tree. Silver King, be careful!"

She shouted at her, then spit out the sand and gravel that had gotten into her helmet and into her mouth when she turned around. She quickly turned around and explained: "Generally, wherever there are such trees in the desert, they are everywhere."

"The worm tree?" Xu Xin was confused.

"Didn't Lou Fei'er and the others tell each other about their experiences in the desert? The kind of tree they were talking about."

Xu Xin raised her eyebrows slightly.

I remembered.

Lou Fei'er and the others dug a big hole next to a tree in order to draw the teleportation formation pattern.

They said that the tree looked very twisted, like countless tentacles entangled and twisted together, and the gaps in these tentacles were filled with disgusting insects.

It's the same tree as before.

However, the Silver King didn't seem to care. It seemed to be able to sense the chaotic environment around it, and it avoided the obstacles of the worm tree again and again without slowing down.

I feel that in this case, Qin Fu should be allowed to come out. His ability is to sense all the plants around him. If the obstacle is only the worm tree, he is the most suitable.

But forget it, the current environment is too violent and the speed is too fast. He may not be able to sit safely when he comes out.

Moreover, the Silver King himself can handle it.

Zhao Xiaochuan, who was lying in front and had been holding on to the hair of Silver King, could now raise his head slightly to observe the front.

And after passing by a wormwood tree, he shouted in horror: "Wow!"

Then he took a mouthful of sand and said, "Bah, bah, bah! Poof!"

Then he buried his head again and didn't care.

The main idea is that if you can't see it, it's not dangerous.

"Don't worry, it's okay." Xu Xin said.

In this way, three people and one wolf were walking through the violent wind and sand.

After about half an hour, the yellow sand finally became much lighter, and the visible distance gradually became farther.

Gradually, the purple-black light pillar emerged from the increasingly thin yellow sand in the sky.

As expected, Silver King did not run in the wrong direction.

It's really been heading in the right direction.

Finally, the yellow sand in the sky receded.

Xu Xin felt for a moment that the vast desert in front of him looked so clear and moving.

"Finally... the sandstorm finally receded!"

Zhao Xiaochuan stood up from King Yin and shouted loudly to the sky.

"Hey, be quiet!" Xu Ying no longer faced backwards, took two steps and turned around and said, "This is very close to their main base. Do you want to be discovered by them?"

"Don't worry Yingying, my ability is very strong. No matter how loud I say it, they won't notice me." Zhao Xiaochuan opened his arms exaggeratedly, as if embracing the new world, "Haha, breakthrough first close!"

Xu Xin looked back and said: "The sandstorm has not receded. We just passed through the sandstorm area."

Behind him, there is still a thick sandstorm wall.

An earth-yellow miasma area that makes people look withdrawn.

I really didn't expect that they could escape from this sandstorm intact.

And the biggest contributor is King Yin.

"Silver King, good job." Xu Xin patted it and said.

"嘤! 嘘嘤!" Coco also raised her little head at this time, and screamed to praise the Silver King, "嘤嘤!"

"Ouch--" Silver King let out a wolf howl, and his speed seemed to increase a bit.

The purple-black light beam is getting closer.

Soon, Xu Xin and the others saw traces of the World Tree from the desert horizon.

"Almost there." Xu Xin took a deep breath and said.

"Yeah." Xu Ying pursed her lips, and then her eyes became firm, "We'll be there soon."

"Wow... my heart is beating so fast!" Zhao Xiaochuan clutched his heart tightly, "Will we see... the alien invader's city soon?"

The main base of the alien invaders can also be said to be the main city of the alien invaders.

With this teleportation array that can span galaxies as the center, three world trees surround it.

And further around, there are facilities.

The alien invaders' World Tree is not like Xu Xin's tree. There is a small world inside, and everything can be done inside.

Their treehouses are just normal treehouses, so some things have to be kept outside.

For example, various high-tech factories of alien invaders.

Just like the building facilities in front of Xu Xin and the others now.

"Is this their facility?"

The current location is about thirty kilometers away from the purple-black light pillar.

And here, they saw a large metal building.

These buildings reflect the metallic luster under the fierce sunlight. Even though the temperature in the desert during the day exceeds 40 degrees, these metal buildings still give people a bone-chilling chill.

"What is this place? Silver King, stop for a moment close to it."

"Ouch!"

Silver King suddenly accelerated, approached the metal building, and stopped about two hundred meters away.

"Is this... the factory of alien invaders?" Xu Xin said to herself, and then asked Xu Ying, "Have you seen it?"

"I've never seen it." Xu Ying shook her head, "I have never been so close to their base. You know, people like us can't hide from them. Who would go close to a place like this."

makes sense.

"Let's go in and have a look?" Zhao Xiaochuan was a little eager to give it a try. He is very confident in his abilities and thinks that he will not be discovered even if he goes in swaggeringly.

"Don't create unnecessary complications." Xu Xin stopped him, "But..."

He looked in the direction of the purple-black light pillar.

From here on, there is no longer a sea of ​​sand behind.

Instead, various buildings gradually become denser.

Perhaps because the foundation cannot be stabilized in the desert, all the buildings here are low-rise. Looking around, Xu Xin did not even see a building with more than two floors.

"The area ahead is not easy to navigate. We may encounter real alien invaders next."

Xu Xin narrowed her eyes and said.

"Alien invaders..." Zhao Xiaochuan swallowed.

"Zhao Xiaochuan, don't be frightened by the appearance of the alien invaders and suppress your abilities." Xu Ying immediately expressed her worries to Zhao Xiaochuan.

"Ah? You're kidding, how is that possible?" Zhao Xiaochuan waved his hand, "I haven't seen anything before? Aren't they just some monsters?"

"Haha, you didn't even dare to raise your head just now."

"That...that's because it was my first time to ride a wolf and I couldn't sit still!" Zhao Xiaochuan blushed and felt thick-necked.

"Okay, okay." Xu Xin interrupted the two of them and said speechlessly, "It's a good thing that you can quarrel here. Next, please concentrate on me."

There are still about 30 kilometers to go. It’s too slow to walk there, and the Silver King still needs to walk on his behalf.

We haven't found anything yet, so we won't let them out for now, and we'll get closer to them later.

"Let's go, Yin Wang, be careful." Xu Xin said to Yin Wang, "slow down a little."

He was afraid that he would be discovered if he went too fast here.

"Aww..." The Silver King understood and even stopped howling. Instead, he responded in a low voice and continued towards the purple-black light pillar.

"Keke." Xu Xin pinched Keke's tail, "If anything happens, tell me as soon as possible."

"Hey!" Coco climbed onto Xu Xin's shoulders twice and looked forward.

The map in Xu Xin's mind needs to be in place before it can take shape, and now it is gradually being perfected.

This gave him a little sense of security.

At least he could know the surrounding construction conditions.

only……

There is not even a red dot on the map.

Are there no alien invaders around here?

"These buildings..." Xu Ying frowned slightly.

"Do you know the function of these buildings?" Xu Xin asked.

"No, but... these metal buildings should be able to directly shield electromagnetic waves." Xu Ying looked at the increasingly dense buildings that covered a large area but were very low.

Shield electromagnetic waves?

"That is to say..." Xu Ying glanced at him, "Your map ability should not be able to scan the things in these metal buildings. If you don't find the enemy's location, it doesn't mean there are no enemies around. It's possible They’re all in these low-rise buildings.”

...Is this actually the case?

His map ability relies on the biochip in his mind, and the principle is electromagnetic wave scanning.

No wonder there are so many buildings here, but not a single spot of light can be seen on his map.

Are they all under construction?

No……

It's possible there isn't.

"This may be a military garrison, but they may not be here anymore." Xu Xin said.

"Then do you want to go in and have a look?" Zhao Xiaochuan was a little eager to try. "If it is really a military garrison, maybe we can find some of their weapons and equipment inside?"
