Astartes of the Bear School Chapter 1228

Chapter 1228 1210. Desert water flow

The bright sun hangs high in the sky, and the layer of air on the sand is burned by the heat until the light is distorted.

It was as if even the air sucked into the nose and trachea contained heat that evaporated the moisture.

Within half a minute of the flannel ball stepping on the sand, he immediately lifted up his furry hind legs and jumped up and down on the sand.

While jumping, it took out a small cloak suitable for its body shape from the space expansion bag on its body, and covered itself neatly.

In this environment, if the armor is exposed to direct sunlight, meat will be fried on it over time.

Berengar, who was still wet and dripping with water, was relatively comfortable at this time, but the old demon hunter estimated that he could finish it off within an hour in this environment.

Lan En came last. After he came, the air pressure disturbed by the intersection of the celestial sphere and the layer of sand and dust that was rolled up gradually stopped.

"This is another world?"

Tisaya was a warlock, and she usually wanted to use the teleportation spell as a carriage. At this time, her dizziness was the slightest.

There was nothing wrong with the desert, but she was surprised when she looked at the large ant mounds that were tens of meters high and looked like rock pillars standing on the sea of sand.

"Welcome to the New World."

As a specially recruited hunter from the fifth phase of the New World Survey Group, Lan spoke to Tissaya and Berengar in a half-local tone.

"Believe me, there's no place more comfortable than here."

"You mean this place is suitable for vacation?" Tissaya frowned slightly, "But the weather here is too hot, and the desert is desolate."

"This is a new continent, Tissaya. What is the concept of continent?" Lan En spread his hands and said with a smile, "The desert is just a corner of this continent."

"And I don't care if you say anything else, but you want to say that the ecology here is 'barren'. Tsk tsk tsk."

The young demon hunter smacked his lips, with disapproval and amusement evident in his tone.

Tissaya raised her eyebrows: "This is a desert."

Lan En responded decisively and confidently: "This is the desert of the New World."

"Okay, okay." Berengar tried to spread his wet clothes so that he could dry them quickly with the help of the environment. "We'll decide whether it's deserted or not later. It's too hot here now. How about we look for a way first?"

Of course Lan En said it was no problem.

Falling suddenly into a desert environment would be fatal enough for ordinary people.

But here it's different.

The vitality of the New World is far more prosperous than that of the normal world.

Although the Great Ant Mound Wasteland looks like a desert or the Gobi Desert, in fact, with the prosperous vitality of the New World, this kind of natural environment should not exist at all.

According to the research of the old people at the Ecological Research Institute of the New World Survey Group, this may be because the endless circulation of vitality in the New World is too strong. Instead, there are temporary siltation and obstructions during the circulation process, creating an environment that is constantly created.

The emergence of deserts in other places is the evolution of the natural environment, but the wastelands in the New World are actually 'unnatural'.

Precisely because it is unnatural, the natural and ecological resources of the Big Ant Mound Wasteland are not impoverished at all.

There are many rivers and swamps in the wasteland of Big Anthill.

Nowadays, humans in the New World are basically professionals in the investigation team. They think that it may be more difficult for accidents to occur in this desert due to the natural environment.

"Mentos, start adjusting time and determining position."

"In progress, sir."

Mentos had already started his work the moment Lann entered the New World.

Lan En, who was working with the biochemical brain in his mind, also asked Qilin next to him.

"Which direction is the Lu Coral Platform? Can you feel it?"

While relying on the computing power of the biochemical intelligence brain to advance the measurement progress, Lan En is still collecting more information to reduce the difficulty of measurement.

At this time, Qilin seemed to be feeling very comfortable. This species is extremely adaptable. People have witnessed traces of Qilin activity in volcanoes, ice fields, mountains, and basins.

At this time, it relied on its physical superiority as an ancient dragon race and came to the desert without any discomfort.

"Huchi~"

Two puffs of air blew out from its large wet nostrils, and Qilin's hooves hesitated on the sand for a few seconds.

Then he stretched his neck, and the pale horn, which was still short of being fully grown, pointed in one direction.

It was born in the New World and had been living on the terrestrial coral plateau before meeting Lan En, where the terrestrial seaweed was its favorite.

It is familiar with the electromagnetic environment there, so it can recognize it even if it has just returned.

Lan En, who had obtained the general direction as a reference, quickly worked with Mentos to construct the current time of the New World and the area where they were located.

"I probably know it well." Lan En removed the large package Berengar was carrying, put it into the space-expanding horse bag on Qilin, and called for everyone to follow him.

"Here, I remember that the investigation team set up a camp nearby. After all, the New World still lacks manpower, and the built camp will not be abandoned easily."

That was a camp built previously to block the large-scale operation of the Molten Dragon. It was not far from the valley where the initial blockade was conducted. If Lan En was not mistaken, what they found at this time might not only be a small camp, but even a large facility set up by the New World Survey Team.

Under Lan En's confident guidance, the group began to walk on the desert.

Tissaya and Berengar are both true northerners, and they have only seen the desert a handful of times in their lives. Of course I can't adapt to walking in the desert.

But just as Lan En confidently introduced them to them before, after walking for three or four hours in the seemingly barren desert, they heard the sound of trickling water.

Although they had expected it, Tishaya and Berengar were still a little surprised.

Because if they were not very lucky to land on the edge of a desert, it means that this desert really has water veins flowing through the middle and crisscrossing it.

The water veins in the desert are really rare.

Sure enough, the sound of water flowing through the fine sand under my feet became clearer and more solid.

Gradually it changed from sand to dry soil, and then to ordinary soil with moisture.

The flannel ball was very happy, even though it was usually an optimistic and hard-working character.

But after returning to his 'home', he had already planned to find two friends from the thief adventure group he had formed.

Kirin is the same, but it misses the terrestrial seaweed of the coral plateau.

As for the golden lion whose unicorn horn was broken off and chewed.

Hey! This guy who can't even control his own energy without his tail is probably already consumed by his own rampant energy!

The grumpy guy deserves a short life!

Qilin thought proudly, after all, it had used great force when it chopped off that guy's tail.

While thinking about it, Qilin's very easy-to-understand thoughts were reflected in its actions, with its four hooves jumping up and down like a dance.

But others were not in a good mood.

Tissaya and Berengar, two people who had never been active in the desert, were sweating profusely and panting.

Although Lan En has not stayed in the desert for too long, he now has a bunch of high-tech enhanced organs in his body that are regulating the balance of the physiological environment in his body.

The current temperature difference is nothing uncomfortable for him.

After a friendly exchange with Qilin, Tissaya asked permission to sit on the back of the ancient dragon.

But there is no chaotic magic power in this world for the sorceress to call upon. All she can use to cast spells is the little bit left in her body.

So now, although the sorceress still tries her best to keep her clothes neat and tidy, but that is considered a rule among sorceresses, but it is unrestrained among ordinary people.

The large area of skin on the exposed chest was covered with sweat, making it look oily and slippery.

Among the wild and bold group of sorceresses, she maintains just the right amount of restraint and self-respect. To a certain extent, this is Tissaya's unique charm.

Berengar's clothes had dried out long ago, and now they were stuck to his body with his own sweat.

After hearing the sound of water, everyone was relieved, because even if they didn't find the so-called camp, nothing would happen if there was fresh water.

But as they got closer and closer to the sound of gurgling water, Lan En's brows slowly wrinkled.

"What's going on?" Berengar muttered as he wiped his sweat, "Is it because of the humidity? Why does it feel like it's getting hotter and hotter?"

Not only him, but Velvet Ball, who had been active in the New World for many years and had adapted to the desert environment, also opened his mouth at this time, unconsciously sticking out his little tongue and panting to dissipate heat.

"It's really too hot. Why does it feel hotter than in the desert? Meow?"

But when they walked forward for a while and actually saw the water flow, they were sure: something was indeed wrong!

It's not because of any sensory error or the humidity, but it's really hotter here than in the desert!

"This is..." Rongbuqiu stood on the semi-wet and semi-dry land by the river, surrounded by swaying and wilting weeds by the water.

The calico kitten looked at the slowly flowing water with its mouth open.

On the water surface, several large fish that looked very wild in the New World were being carried away motionlessly by the current with their bellies turned over.

This is a biting fish, a fish commonly found in the water systems of the Great Anthill Wasteland.

One was at least half the size of a human, with a ferocious mouth, and its whole body was covered with tough fish skin and powerful muscles.

A normal large dog standing on the shore may be bitten by this fish and dragged into the water.

But now.

"He was burned to death." Lan En came to the conclusion after taking a quick look.

This kind of fish that could be included in the hunter's mission list and was already considered a small monster was scalded to death in the water.

Not to mention the other ordinary creatures in the water.

The scalded corpses of creatures such as sashimi fish and the whetstone trevally whose scales can serve as whetstones were carried down the current.

In the upstream direction of the current, a black-and-white Ellu cat was working hard to row a small hovercraft that fit its size, anxiously swimming down the river.
