Chapter 300 【0297】 Leading the Way
According to the "operation instructions" given by Karya, Lux and Ino led Skarash away from the place where it had just eaten. One stroked its chin, and the other combed the hair on its back, and soon it lay down on the ground obediently.
While Skarash closed his eyes and enjoyed the spa comfortably, Lux cut off a large piece of oil silk cotyledon with his sword and roughly covered it up - although Skarash was tall, his shoulders were not too wide. After lying down, he covered it with the wide leathery leaves of the oil silk, and from a distance, it was impossible to tell that there was a huge Skarash hidden here.
"You rest here obediently!" After covering the leaves, Lux reached out again to tidy up the hair on Skarash's back, "Be good and don't move, I'll go take a look and come back!"
"I'll go with you." Ino looked up at the smoke and dust that was getting closer and closer to the east, "If a team of this size really has a conflict, it may not be easy to deal with."
"Teacher Karya will help me!" Lux patted the hilt of her sword, "I'm just going to take a look - don't worry, there may not be a conflict!"
Ino was a little worried, but considering that Skarash did need to be taken care of, she could only nod in the end.
"Then you must pay attention..."
Lux nodded, showed a thumbs up, and then, under the cover of the oil silk, crouched and rushed towards the direction of the smoke and dust.
At the same time, Sefiqa also took action.
Following the long-abandoned culvert, he arrived at the island hidden in the center of the inner lake of the oasis, where the desert survivors lived.
When he arrived, the child who had just returned by boat was dancing and describing the beautiful big sister he had just seen with his friends.
"Her tone of voice is a little strange, but very nice. I have never seen such beautiful golden hair - hey, brother Bonu! Why did you come out?"
"Go call the elder, go!" Sefiqa said anxiously, "Tell him that the group of sand bandits are coming again!"
"Oh! OK!"
The child nodded quickly after hearing this, and then turned and left.
The children who had just surrounded him and listened to his bragging also dispersed and went back to their homes.
Sand bandits are a huge threat to any desert survivors. Even if the Oil Silk Oasis has oil silk all over the ground and a dark lake hidden under the oil silk, it is almost impossible for sand bandits without boats to cross the lake and reach the village in the lake where they live, but for the sake of safety, it is safer for everyone to hide.
……………………
Amid the rolling smoke and dust, this camel team successfully arrived at the edge of the oasis.
Lacus, who was hiding among the oil silks, was hiding his body while observing these sand bandits from a distance.
"Are these sand bandits?" Lacus, who had excellent eyesight, held the hilt of the sword and asked with some doubt, "Why do I feel that these people's movements and styles are more like regular troops than sand bandits?"
"I am also a little confused about this." Through Lacus's vision, Kalya also clearly saw the appearance of these sand bandits, "These people are clearly wearing a layer of leather armor under their robes to protect key positions. Sand bandits should not have such equipment, right?"
You know, armor - even leather armor - is quite expensive.
If the sand bandits can spend a lot of money to build a mobile camel cavalry for the mobility of looting, but the fact that there is armor is still unexpected.
To put it another way, even if the sand bandits did make a set of armor for stronger combat power and to be able to rob large caravans, it should be a hodgepodge of armor that depends on their own abilities!
Although the armor under the robe of this camel captain cannot be seen clearly, it can be seen that its style is completely unified!
It's really a ghost, can a sand bandit have such an outfit?
Can someone with such an outfit be considered a sand bandit?
For a moment, Lux and Kalya were a little confused about the situation.
Soon, with a whistle, these sand bandits turned off their camels one after another, and then led the camels one by one, lined up in several columns, and began to move towards the center of the oasis under the leadership of several people who did not wear leather armor and looked like guides.
Those guides were obviously familiar with this oasis. The density of oil silk was obviously lower on the path they took-and Lux, after hesitating for a moment, finally chose to keep up with their footsteps, falling far behind.
"I always feel that those leaders may be locals of this oasis." While avoiding the scouts who were scattered and on guard in the team, Lux secretly said to Kalya, "If that's the case, I'm afraid those desert survivors living in the center of the lake will be in trouble this time."
"If that's really the case, I'm afraid you have to take care of your business this time."
"It's my duty!"
……………………
Following the guide he had finally found, leading his precious white-haired camel, Kaf strode in this oil silk oasis.
"What a wonderful place." Looking at the emerald green oasis, he murmured to himself, "The heritage of the Shurima Empire is so rich..."
In a good mood, Kaf subconsciously touched his waist, but when he took out his pipe, he did not take out the flint again, but put the pipe next to his nose and took a deep breath.
"These oil silks are really good in every way, but they are afraid of fire."
"Once the leaves of the oil silk tree are ignited, it is difficult to extinguish them - but as long as you don't use an open flame to light the withered stems and leaves, these green thick leaves are difficult to ignite." In front of him, the guide responsible for guiding the way Hearing this, he nodded and said, "Lord Kafu, you must watch the camels. The leaves of the squid or the Doman beast can be eaten, but the camels will not be able to digest them."
"Don't worry." Kraft chuckled after hearing this, and put away his pipe, "My Bai Yushuang is a smart girl, she won't eat randomly... Bastard, raise your head and eat carefully. You’ll get diarrhea later! Damn it, if you do this again, I’ll prepare a chew for you!”
Obviously, the female white camel named Bai Yushuang didn't seem to give her owner much face - just when Kraft took out his pipe and smelled the smell of tobacco to satisfy his craving, she had already poked her head out curiously, I bit into the green, juicy leaves of Yousizi.
The bridle was pulled, and the aggrieved white camel let out a dissatisfied breath through his nostrils. In this case, Kraft could only scratch her chin helplessly.
"There is water to drink out front. Although the water in this oasis is not the most delicious, it can at least quench your thirst, right?"
Kalya’s Little Class·The flammability of oilseeds:
The leaves of the oil silk tree contain extremely high oil content, but its vegetable oil is stable in nature. Fresh leaves are almost impossible to be ignited directly - but if they are ignited by igniting dead branches and leaves, then This flame is also extremely difficult to extinguish.
