Chapter 294: Insightful Eyes
When they finally broke out of the red fog, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"How far are we from the place where Yuan Shouzhen and the others lost contact last?"
Luo Jun asked while controlling the armored vehicle.
"According to the map, there are still more than 100 kilometers." Rolf looked at the map given by the Vatican and compared it with the positioning device on the armored vehicle: "Just keep driving in this direction."
"What is there over there?" Ma Lei asked Ophelia on the opposite side. The map can only mark the direction. The central area of the Helube Desert is completely different from the periphery. Only this guide who has been here knows what will happen.
"Nothing." Ophelia said lightly: "At least I didn't encounter any abnormal phenomena when I passed by there before."
"But the central area of the Helube Desert cannot be speculated by common sense." Ophelia said: "Instead of speculating on the dangers of the target location, it is better to pray that there will be no accidents on the way there."
"Hey, you are the only guide, don't be so crow-mouthed." Jin Fei waved his hand, looked at Ophelia, and secretly put on imitation glasses.
From beginning to end, this woman never looked up at anyone when she spoke, and her tone was unusually flat, like an electronic sound. She never made any big movements when she moved... Jin Fei felt that this guy was more like a robot in energy-saving mode than a human.
He was a little curious whether this guy was practicing some special skills. Since he got this thing, one of his hobbies was to imitate the inner breath of others when he had nothing to do. Although this somewhat disrupted his own practice rhythm and even the danger of going astray, Jin Fei was confident that his skills were high enough. So far, except for the 108 rebellious generals in Ye's body, he has not encountered any situation that he can't handle.
Hmm?
After activating the special effects of the imitation glasses, Jin Fei felt that the speed of his vitality running slowed down a lot, and only maintained the minimum operation...
It's really energy-saving mode?
Jin Fei imitated for a long time, but didn't see any special effect, so he took off the glasses and put them away.
There was no danger on the rest of the way. Rolf proposed to replace the driver halfway, but Luo Jun refused. This Xiluo strongman secretly admired Luo Jun's magnanimity.
After more than an hour, the armored vehicle arrived at the location marked on the map. Everyone got off the car and looked around. There was still endless yellow sand around, nothing special.
"It was a smooth journey!" Otos stretched his waist: "It was smooth and a bit boring."
"If it's too smooth, you can go back and challenge the sleeping monster." Ma Lei snorted coldly. Although she is also a warmonger, there are reasons for fighting. She despises such guys who are afraid of chaos in the world.
"If you don't agree, we can practice!" Otos looked at Ma Lei: "I noticed it when I saw you for the first time. Are we the same kind?"
"Sorry, sister is not interested in a brat like you!"
"I like to conquer older sisters the most!"
"You two, don't forget the purpose of our coming." Rolf and Zhuge Chi came forward to stop the two. Ophelia looked around: "Otos is right. This road is a bit too smooth. I have been here so many times, and I have never encountered any unexpected situations like this road, more than 100 kilometers."
"Don't worry about those unimportant things." 'Ye' said in a deep voice: "I just want to complete my commission as soon as possible!"
Luo Jun thought to himself, how could it not be smooth? I was very careful at the helm all the way, and I used the dice several times to avoid potential dangers! Good guy, every time after success, the severity coefficient is no less than eight times. This damn place is really not for people to come.
However, thanks to the high severity coefficient, the experience gained from these dice rolls was not low. With the experience accumulated from regulating the internal breath last night, the next level is not far away.
After this period of time, Luo Jun deeply realized that the double insurance and lucky level, which increase the success rate of dice rolls, not only make things smoother, but also increase the upgrade speed in disguise. The success rate of events that were originally not low in difficulty has been greatly improved, and the efficiency of experience gain has also increased.
Everyone began to prepare for the investigation.
According to the information provided by the Holy See, the team led by Yuan Lao before disappeared in this generation. Not long before the disappearance, they contacted the Parami branch through the treasure. After half an hour, they contacted again and there was no news. Even the positioning device lost the signal, as if the entire team disappeared out of thin air.
As for where they ran to in this half hour, no one knew.
So the key to their investigation is to find out what happened here before.
Ottos took out a small bottle from the treasure box, which contained crystal powder.
The Dust of Reappearance, which Luo Jun had used before, can reproduce the scene of a certain time period within a certain range. But he collected them randomly, and only the bottom of the bottle was left. It was gone after one use. This time, the Vatican specially prepared a few more bottles for them to find people and investigate cases.
But the range of the Reappearance Dust is limited, only a few dozen meters at most. In this vast desert, with the mobility of Yuan Lao's expedition team, the range of activities in half an hour is too large. If the specific location when they disappeared is not determined, no matter how much Reappearance Dust there is, it will not be enough.
At this time, it was Mou Ning's turn to take action.
She walked slowly up to a sand dune, raised her hand and took off the eye mask, revealing a pair of eyes larger than normal.
For an ordinary person, if such a pair of eyes appeared on his face, he would definitely look weird like an alien, but for some reason, these eyes appeared on Mou Ning's face, and they were very coordinated with her face shape and other facial features, without any sense of disobedience, as if her eyes were born like this.
Mou Ning opened her eyes, revealing a pair of silver pupils.
Qi cultivation is extremely talent-oriented, not just root bones and spirituality. Some people are born with abilities that are different from ordinary people, and they may also be strengthened during the process of cultivation, and eventually form unique abilities.
For example, Mou Ning, this girl's eyes are naturally different from ordinary people, with extraordinary vision, and as she grows older, she can see more and more things. Soon, her talent was discovered by the Yuan Xiu Association, and she was focused on cultivating it since childhood. In the end, she broke through the state of concentration at a young age, and naturally became an insight school, and had abilities far beyond ordinary insight schools.
However, as she practiced, her eyes became stronger and stronger, but gradually became a burden. Because her natural bones are mediocre and her spirituality is not strong, her upper limit of Qi is not high. However, her extraordinary ability consumes a lot of Qi. If she does not suppress it, it is difficult for her to bear such a huge consumption with her own Qi.
For this reason, the association created such an eye mask for him. Wearing it to cover his eyes can reduce consumption. Only after taking it off can he release his true power.
Insightful Eyes!
An invisible wave spread out and instantly covered the space within a radius of ten kilometers.
Before wearing the eye mask, Mou Ning only had stronger insight, and the warning range was larger than that of ordinary practitioners. If you want to grasp the detailed information of a certain place, you need to concentrate your attention.
But after opening the insightful eyes, as long as it is within the insight range, everything is in her sight!
Yuan Lao's team disappeared for only a few days. Such a master, disappearing out of thin air, it is impossible to leave no trace.
Mou Ning's silver pupils trembled slightly, constantly screening any possible abnormalities. But as Ophelia said, anything can happen in the center of the Hyrub Desert, and there are too many things that look abnormal.
For example, a humanoid sand pile that can walk on its own; a bottomless black hole; a small tornado that only spins in one place; and a lonely, very abrupt dead tree growing in the center of the desert...
If all these seemingly abnormal places are investigated, the Dust of Reappearance may not be enough.
But Mou Ning's ability is not limited to this!
After seeing the abnormality on the surface, her detection ability can further explore the principles behind these abnormalities.
The humanoid sand pile is just the condensation of some mysterious power, and it does not have too strong power itself; under the black hole is a desert scorpion with a cub; the tornado is due to the disorder of the elements, and it is impossible to threaten a powerful practitioner; the lonely dead tree is actually a bait, and below it is a huge, toad-like monster, ready to devour the prey attracted at any time, but with its strength, it is not enough to swallow up Yuan Lao's team.
In short, after eliminating one possibility after another, Mou Ning continued to narrow the scope, and finally, screened out an abnormal phenomenon that could not be explained in any way.
"Huh..." The silver-eyed girl with sweat on her forehead closed her eyes, put on the eye mask again, jumped down from the sand dune, raised her hand and pointed to the southeast: "There is a sand pit about two kilometers away."
"Sand pit?" Everyone was stunned, Jin Fei said: "This is a desert, can't sand pits be seen everywhere?"
"That one is not the same." Mou Ning shook her head: "You will know when you go and see it."
Everyone followed Mou Ning's instructions and soon came to the sand pit she mentioned...
At first, everyone had many speculations about the so-called "different sand pit", such as being particularly large, or having a strange shape, or even hiding some monster in the pit.
But after finding it, everyone was disappointed. This is a sand pit that can't be more ordinary. If you have to say that there is something special, it is probably deeper and more regular in shape, similar to a transparent hemisphere pressed in the sand.
But even this insignificant feature has been deformed by the wind and sand for several days, and it doesn't look so obvious.
"What's so special about this?" Otos kicked the sand and looked at Mou Ning unkindly: "You're not kidding us, are you?"
"No... it's definitely different!" Luo Jun spoke up. He grabbed a handful of sand, looked at it carefully, and then picked out a few grains from it. Then he grabbed another handful and picked out a few more grains. After repeating this several times, he had a small handful of sand left in his hand.
"Look at this."
Everyone came up, no one picked a few grains, looked at them carefully, but they were still confused. In the end, Zhuge Chi, who had the highest realm, widened his eyes: "These grains of sand are all half!"
