Chapter 595: Declining Soul Power
The scorching sun is scorching, looking around to remove the desert or the desert.
The horizon is endless.
This is located in the west of the defensive circle, and it is only ten kilometers away from the front of the defense line.
In the back are lush forests, mountain peaks, and outposts are built in dangerous places.
front,
The lush green grass is getting sparser and sparser, as if a line has been drawn, one side is green and the other is yellow sand.
A team of 500 exploration corps, dressed in uniform battle uniforms, formed a battle formation one by one, advancing in an orderly and rapid manner.
After a while, he went deep into the desert, and his figure was submerged in the yellow sand flying all over the sky.
"Chief instructor, this desert has nearly 100,000 square kilometers, which is equivalent to half of the original Tiannan Province. How can we find our target in such a vast place?"
While speaking, the sand face exploded with a bang, and a black-brown scorpion tail slammed into a certain member of the outer battle phalanx.
It's a desert scorpion!
A strange beast that is very common in the desert environment. It is not strong, but it is good at hiding. Even a high-level awakened person may be caught accidentally.
There was no panic, and after reacting, several desert scorpions that attacked were quickly beheaded.
Today's elite scout team members have the lowest level of awakening and are at the peak of the ninth level, and have rich combat experience.
But no one was relieved.
The harsh environment brought them a lot of trouble.
The gust of wind swept through the sky, and the flying gravel hit each team member fiercely. If it wasn't for the full body protection of combat uniforms and helmets, their bodies were hardened to rough skin, and they would inevitably be injured.
Moving forward in such sandstorm weather, the visibility is poor, and the physical consumption is much greater than usual. In addition, there are magical beasts and alien beasts attacking from time to time, and it is impossible for them to rummage the entire desert.
but,
When the team members looked at the tower-like figure at the front, everyone felt extremely confident.
Instructor Luo, it is their belief!
The garrison corps, the survey corps...every year the members who graduated from the boot camp and joined the major corps have listened to the teachings of the chief instructor, not to mention that many of the instructors in the boot camp are the apprentices brought out by Chief Instructor Luo!
Today, Chief Instructor Luo rarely takes action in person.
This time, if it wasn't for the Chief Instructor, they would not be so lucky to follow the Chief Instructor on the mission.
In the whistling sandstorm, the five hundred team members swiftly walked by stepping on the sand surface.
Luo Zhe was wearing black heavy armor, and his heavy boots stepped on the sand, leaving no traces.
Part of the reason for his personal shot this time is that he is stuck on the bottleneck of breakthrough and has never been able to find an opportunity.
For him, it is too difficult to break through the fusion of eight cores.
But since he had the opportunity, how could he be willing to take the mediocre path.
Another part of the reason is the desert.
Originally it should be hidden in the interlayer of space, like the star road, it appeared with the recovery of the planet, and now there are many similar situations on the earth.
There are forests, deserts, lakes, glaciers near the equator, vast lakes in deserts, etc. The entire earth has expanded at least dozens of times, and it continues to expand.
And this desert is embedded in Tiannan Province.
It is half the size of Tiannan Province, and there are many dangers in it. Even adventurers are rarely willing to explore such a place... More importantly, it is too close to the defense circle!
Not long ago, an extraordinary beast rushed out of the desert and attacked an outpost, killing more than 20 soldiers of the garrison. Insect repelled.
That is in the forest environment, in the desert, the threat of digging sandworms is higher, and they are also good at hiding, so it is difficult to detect.
In the center of the phalanx, several team members are holding a huge energy level detection device, which can detect high-energy reactions within a certain range.
The perception system in the reconnaissance team, or the team members with special reconnaissance skills, use various means to detect the surrounding environment.
Luo Zhe's perception spread out.
Cactus in the distance, alien beasts hidden in the desert...
Scenes and scenes were reflected in his mind.
He suppressed the power of perception and did not dare to be too reckless, for fear of scaring the extraordinary beast away.
In his mind, the information about digging sandworms flashed.
This beast lives mostly in deserts and occasionally can be seen in other places.
Digging sandworms are not very powerful among alien beasts. They are generally four and five levels in adulthood. Elites in the group may have seven or eight levels, and some larger digging sandworm groups may have their leaders break through the tenth level. This is the bottleneck of high-level awakening.
But that's it.
Compared to other beasts, such as the golden-winged flying eagle and the lunar wolf, who are middle-level and high-level adults, the talent of digging sandworms is not high.
The sudden appearance of an extraordinary leader made Luo Zhe have to think about the reason.
The sandstorm shrouded, and the light was a little dim.
The team of the Exploration Corps traveled in the desert for several hours, but did not find the figure of the digging sandworms. Instead, they took away several desert scorpion nests.
In this desert, it seems that there are many alien beasts such as desert poisonous scorpions, gerbils, sand sculptures...
Hidden in the sandstorm, they attacked the Scouting Corps from time to time. The team members were determined, but their physical strength had inevitably dropped a lot - the potion could not complete this loss.
suddenly,
Luo Zhe raised his brows and put his palm on the hilt of the sword.
"Alert." He said solemnly, continuing to restrain his breath.
The players are attentive.
In an instant, the energy level detection device in the center of the phalanx lit up with red light, flashing and flashing, and the sound of "Di Di Di Di" sounded more and more rapidly.
"Come, come!"
The sand beneath his feet was stirred like waves, creating a huge vortex of gravel that would devour everyone.
The members of the exploration team who had been prepared for a long time jumped out of the gravel vortex.
The gravel spins faster and faster, and the vortex sinks like a big mouth.
Boom!
In the wind and sand in the sky, the sand splashed dozens of meters high.
A huge alien beast sprang out from under the sand and stood upright like a building.
It looks like a bug that has been magnified countless times, with rough yellow-brown skin, open and closed mouthparts, and flying tentacles, it looks extremely hideous and ugly.
But not a demon beast.
But a native beast.
The rising sandworm roared, the layers of sound waves swayed, and the terrifying momentum was released.
It knows these two-legged beasts. A few days ago, when it walked out of this desert for the first time, it was accidentally injured by the weapons of these two-legged beasts.
But now, here is the desert.
And it is the overlord of this desert!
Twolegs must die!
The digging sandworm king roared, and a huge column of fire spewed out, shaking the sand at the same time, and the sand surface blasted forward like a wave layer by layer.
"Blood - cut -"
The blood-colored rays of light bloomed, the huge pillar of fire was split by the blood-red sword energy, and the sparks scattered.
The blood-colored sword light continued to slash upwards, but it was more than half dim compared to just now.
The digging sandworm king panicked, his long body twisted away, he fell quickly, and avoided some, but he was still cut by a sword light with a wound several meters long, and the blood spurted out.
How can two-legged beasts be so strong!
In its eyes, Luo Zhe, who is similar to others, raised his sword again, and the whole person stepped into the air.
"Breakthrough"!
An even bigger white sword light slashed out, passing by like a light.
A blood line appeared on the upper body of the digging sandworm king, and with a bang, the entire head was chopped open, fell heavily, and the red and green blood organs were scattered.
The huge body of the Sandworm King struggled and rolled up the sky.
Boom!
The yellow sand was separated like water, and most of the digging sandworm king burrowed into the sand at once.
It's not dead yet!
Although it has not reached the second level, the characteristics and vitality of the digging sandworm king made it lose its head and still survive!
Invisible waves spread.
The sand surface was surging, and countless digging sandworms that were several sizes smaller burrowed out from under the sand surface and rushed towards Luo Zhe and others from all directions.
far away,
Seemingly disturbed by passive stillness, more and more demonized beasts gathered, and a black tide of demons rushed forward.
Humans, sandworms, and demonized beasts are fighting each other.
boom!
Luo Zhe's momentum was finally released without reservation, and he stomped on the ground with one foot, the sand surface was trampled out of the deep pit, and the gravel exploded.
He chased after the sandworm king's breath, and cut out with one sword, one sword, and one sword.
The dunes were collapsed and turned into sand valleys.
Numerous gravels were buried, and the fragmented body of the Sandworm King could be seen.
Luo Zhe made a vertical jump, blasted away the sand, and then picked and swiped to break open the abdomen of the sandworm king, got in and groped, and then came out, his body was still clean, and he was holding a pebble in his hand. Large khaki round beads.
He took a closer look and put it away.
Returning to the original place, the battle was almost over, the menacing magic tide was beheaded, and the digging sandworms fled from the moment the sandworm king was completely killed.
The giant head of the Sandworm King is not far away. Several team members have already stepped forward to dig out the source crystal, and some are collecting valuable materials from demonized beasts and digging sandworms. Nearly half of the remaining team members are still holding Arms on alert.
In the wild, under no circumstances should you let your guard down.
Luo Zhe inquired and learned that only a few people were slightly injured in the battle just now.
At this time,
A squad leader stepped forward, hesitated for a while, and finally said:
"Chief Instructor, I feel a little strange. It seems that the soul power I just absorbed has decreased."
