Apocalyptic Starship

Chapter 473: Coming Out of the Sand

The sandstorm is still going on. In the dim sky, it is impossible to tell the difference between east, west and north with the naked eye. We can only roughly distinguish the sky and the earth. After running for a certain distance, the ten camels automatically surrounded the city and lay still with their heads inward. The Rubik's Cube knew that this was the camel's resistance. The sandstorm method was to quickly let the three humans get into the middle of the camel circle, while he lay directly outside. Since no one could see him in the sandstorm now, he simply closed his nostrils and ears and went into sleep.

For some unknown reason, the sandstorm lasted for a long time, and the three people who were tightly wrapped among the camels gradually fell into sleep...

Around five o'clock in the evening.

The ten-humped camels were still resting on the ground. At this time, the wind and sand receded, and the sky returned to its usual rich golden color. Many sand dunes changed their positions unconsciously. Gradually, the sleeping female leader's eyelashes moved and she woke up.

He raised his head, slowly stood up from the half-buried sand, and shook off his clothes.

"Xiaobin and Xiaoling, are you okay?"

"Well... I feel so sleepy and so warm."

Xiao Bin slowly woke up and stretched, but when he opened his eyes, he found that he had been huddled under the camel's neck, no wonder he felt so comfortable. The big camel was staring at him curiously with its big eyes, but the camel was very dirty, okay? ! With a swish, Xiaobin quickly stood up and shook his head vigorously to get rid of the dirt, but ended up shaking his head full of sand.

The same goes for the girl named Xiaoling who doesn't talk much. Apart from her hair, there is sand in her hair, and her clothes are also filled with sand. It's not like Xiaobin who takes off her clothes and shakes the sand at will, which makes her feel very uncomfortable.

"Huh? Where's the Rubik's Cube?"

The three people were suddenly stunned. Where did the Rubik's Cube go? The female team leader hurriedly searched among the camels but found nothing. The three of them wondered if they had been swept away by a sandstorm. If you get separated in a sandstorm, you may never be found. During the sandstorm, the sky is full of flying sand and there is quicksand under your feet. If an accident occurs, no one will hear you even if you call for help.

Just as the three of them were regretting the loss of a special soldier, a sandbag suddenly gradually bulged out on the flat sand ahead...

"ah……"

This scene scared Xiaoling like a rabbit and jumped on the back of a camel.

With a snap, an arm stretched out from the sand. The sleeves were in the style of a combat uniform. Could it be that the Rubik's Cube was not buried? The three of them didn't know whether it was better to help dig it out or to continue watching. This was a bit too weird.

Another arm stretched out from the sand, and then two hands were placed on the surface of the sand!

Phew~ The Rubik's Cube emerged from the sand amid the flying dust. I didn't know whether it was on a slope before lying down or what happened. When I woke up, I found that I was buried nearly one meter deep. It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter whether it's one meter or a hundred meters. It’s just a matter of how long it takes to be out. The three people didn't know the specific situation of the Rubik's Cube and thought that the Rubik's Cube was only buried in a shallow layer of sand. If they knew that the Rubik's Cube was buried one meter deep, they would probably think of the Rubik's Cube as a monster. It was one meter deep in sand! Not a meter deep weed! Even the weight can crush people to death inside!

"That's good if everyone is here. I thought you were all dozens of kilometers away when I woke up."

Rubik's Cube smiled as much as he could and shook off the sand all over his body.

"How about it, have you found your destination? If this continues, we will all have to live in this desert, unless you can adapt to the environment like a camel."

"We... don't know why. The locator has been flickering recently and the data is confusing. I suspect there may be a huge mine underneath that causes the signal to be unstable, so... we may not be able to find it yet..."

After saying that, the female team leader lowered her head in embarrassment. The Rubik's Cube looked at the girl in her twenties, thirties or fourteens who had taken off her scarf and was speechless. In this situation, she dared to go to the desert for excitement. Aren't she afraid that she would not be able to go back? If you continue to live like this, if you run out of fresh water and food, will you really be able to survive with your half-hearted level of cultivation?

"I...you..."

Rubik's Cube pointed at the female team leader and wanted to say something, but he couldn't say too much to this rookie female team leader. In the end, he had no choice but to spread his hands. If he had known better, he wouldn't have gone to the desert with these children to find some ruins of cultivating immortals. , there is a fart! Can those cultivators who talk about being superior to others all day long appreciate this harsh desert environment? I also saw a ghost at that time.

"OK, well, since we can't find the damn ruins, why don't we go out? You have to know that our fresh water will be very nervous when we go back now. Of course, if you don't use fresh water to wash your face, the support time will be longer. Please turn around and take a look, look at the damn sand dunes and the damn high temperature, and look at the ten poor camels. If it weren't for my help, they might have run away because they couldn't bear the hunger and thirst. I think Do you know if you are here to add mummies to the desert or do you want to do something meaningful? "

Shrugging, Rubik's Cube looked at the three people and wanted to hear what they had to say, especially the useless thing of washing your face and gargling with fresh water. Didn't you know that fresh water in the desert is more valuable than gold?

The three people seemed very shy at first, but gradually, Rubik's Cube found that the three people were gradually depressed and had a tendency to have a mental breakdown. What was going on? Could it be that the three of us couldn't live without finding that relic? For a moment, the atmosphere was a bit depressing, and Rubik's Cube could not continue to criticize this matter, so he had to stand and wait for the three people to calm down.

After a few minutes, the female team leader took a few deep breaths and tried to calm down her emotions.

"I'm sorry for bringing you into the depths of the desert because of us."

Mofang quietly waited to see what the girl was going to say. He had a hunch that what she was going to say now would definitely explain a lot of things he didn't know before.

"We originally had ten people, and we also had local guides, and we also prepared helicopters to deliver supplies at any time, but... I don't know when we were targeted by some people. We were ambushed shortly after we entered the desert, and many people died, including the guide."

This is another real performance of the dark struggle history of mankind, Mofang thought.

"Under the desperate cover of the guards, the three of us ran out. Fortunately, we were not injured, but the guide and the communicator that contacted the helicopter were broken. There were still those people waiting for us to go out so that we could catch them all. I didn't know what to do, so I had to decide temporarily that we must find the destination, so that we could survive..."

"Wait..."

Mofang found a suspicious point.

"How do you know that you will survive if you find the destination? What if it doesn't work? You know that accidents happen every day in this damn world, although there are good and bad ones, but there are always."

"We have no way out...so we can only gamble. I'm very sorry to involve you."
