Soon after the exploration team left the gneiss group, someone was frightened to find that the scorpion group followed up again.
Hope has failed.
Facts have proved that the previous practice of gold injection is correct.
The young knight sighed secretly. Cang Xu's speculation flustered his heart, but on the surface, his expression was very calm.
"Don't worry, the scorpions are just full, and we are not on their food list."
"The Scorpion King will continue to fight with me alone."
"As long as I don't fall down, you'll be all right."
Everyone was successfully pacified by the needle gold.
The group continued to move forward in the desert.
They must cherish the early morning, which is a good opportunity to travel.
By rights, this is just an island.
There are many landforms on the island, and the desert on the island should be small.
As long as we stick to one direction and keep moving forward, we can get out of this nightmare.
But people in it have different feelings.
Yellow sand, yellow sand all over the sky.
Dunes, rolling dunes.
It is easy for people to think that they have not traveled much.
The desert seems to be endless. No matter how you go, you can't go to the end.
Physical strength was rapidly exhausted. Just after the morning, the exploration team members felt hungry.
The food is really too little.
Confusion and despair are inevitable and uncontrollable in everyone's heart.
At this time, the explorers' eyes will be on Zhen Jin.
Needle gold opens at the front.
He is just a teenager, not taller than others.
But the explorers often drew courage from their thin backs.
These courage fight against the confusion and despair in the heart.
The sun rises gradually, and the temperature of the desert rises rapidly.
Sweat stains began to appear on the foreheads of the explorers.
About twoorthree hours later, the silver lance scorpion suddenly gave out a harsh neighing. The scorpion's feet quickly pulled close to Sha Shuo under his feet, separated from the scorpions and rushed to the exploration team.
"It's coming!" The exploration team made a commotion and soon calmed down.
Because Zhen Jin was ready, he immediately stopped and turned around, facing the gun scorpion.
The two sides launched a fierce battle, as yesterday's prospects.
After a fierce fight for a while, the silver spear scorpion took the initiative to retreat from the battle.
Zhen Jin breathed heavily and did not pursue.
The young knight was more and more dignified.
"Is it my illusion?"
"I always feel that the scorpion's shell is harder than before."
"Is it because the spider blade in my hand has lost too much, or does this scorpion's shell thicken after eating?"
Needle gold is more and more helpless to this gun scorpion.
Every knife he struck on the scorpion's shell left only a white mark.
Moreover, this trace is getting shallower and shallower.
"Unless I mutate into sharp bear claws, there is no way to pose a threat to the scorpion with this weapon in my hand alone."
"In addition, my physical strength is also weakening."
Needle gold can obviously feel this.
Before, he fought with the silver spear scorpion, and his endurance was long.
Now the fight only lasts for a moment, and you will have shortness of breath and weak hands and feet.
These days, Zhijin has not had enough to eat and sleep well, and has not been effectively rested at all. He is like a spider blade in his hand. He has seen the limit.
Compared with the fierce beasts such as gun scorpion, human body has racial differences and weakness. The needle and gold fight against the gun and scorpion, which is to short attack the enemy's strength with their own strength.
Fortunately, spear scorpion, as the leader, seems very cautious. Every time I was fighting with the needle gold for a moment, I seemed to notice that it was difficult to get the needle gold, so I stepped back for the time being.
According to Cang Xu, this may be the hunting skill of gun scorpion. Every battle weakens the needle gold a little. After adding up, the needle gold will eventually accumulate to its limit, and it is difficult to break out at the moment of death.
This may be the survival skill of scorpions hunting.
But for needle gold, it is a lucky thing.
Scorpion's habit gave him a chance to breathe.
After four such battles, the sun rose to the highest point in the sky.
At noon, the sun was fierce.
The sand sea at the foot is steaming, and the exploration team members feel like fish and shrimp on a red iron plate.
In order to consider for a long time, people can only avoid the sun and temporarily breathe in the limited shadow on the back of a sand dune.
Scorpions are also afraid of the scorching sun and will no longer attack.
As the explorers witnessed, these scorpions waved their pincers, twisted their bodies, and went deep into the sand.
This kind of good way to cool off in the summer made the exploration team members envy one after another.
"Do you think these scorpions will sneak into us from underground?" Some expressed concern.
"Then let them come. I've had enough of this kind of ghost days!" Someone sat on the ground, feeling weak.
Cang Xu still kept his reason and analyzed, "the scorpion's body is there. If you want to drill out, it will definitely cause great movement. We will definitely find it first."
"This is not their way of hunting."
"Think about how they deal with those green lizards."
Everyone was relieved.
Zidi began to distribute food, which was today's lunch.
Everyone has only a small portion of dry food, which is less than half the size of a palm.
Fortunately, water reserves are relatively sufficient.
But at the suggestion of Cang Xu, everyone almost pursed his mouth and stopped after a small drink of twoorthree mouthfuls.
Then they carefully stuffed the plug tightly, and then tied the water bag firmly to their waist. They cherished it very much, as if it were the most valuable treasure in the world.
Among all people, Zijin has the most food.
After all, he consumes the most, which is also the biggest guarantee for everyone's safety.
Even so, these foods are far from enough for needle gold.
The young knight can only eat small bites, as if eating like this can give his stomach an illusion - as if he ate more.
During the meal, Zhen Jin was also secretly observing the team.
At present, although people are haggard and tired, their lips are dry and cracked, and their eyes are dull, their emotions are generally relatively stable.
Bai Ya's face was the palest. His arm was broken because he resisted the lizard. At present, it has been tied and fixed, but the pain has always plagued the young man.
The old scholar Cang Xu is gently tapping his calf with his hand. He is relaxing his muscles. To tell the truth, it's surprising that he can persist until now with his body.
Finally, Zhen Jin came to Zidi's side.
"How's it going?" He asked softly.
"I'm fine." Ziti shook her head, and her Amethyst eyes were strong.
She has a magic robe, which should have the function of regulating temperature according to common sense. But it seems to have failed on this island and cannot be isolated from the heat.
This led to a lot of sweat on ziti's forehead, and her hair was wet with sweat and condensed into strands.
This is not a good phenomenon.
Sweating too much will lead to the rapid decline of water in the body. For a long time, people will dehydrate and die.
Zhen Jin had a feeling of love and affection in his heart, and he knew the reason.
Everyone has water and dry food, but most of the food is concentrated in one place, just on Zidi's body.
This brings a burden to Zidi and increases her physical exertion when walking.
There are many reasons for this.
While resisting the scorpions, Zhen Jin is also on guard against the people in the same trade.
Hunger and thirst will be unbearable, and the instinct to survive is extremely powerful, which will make people crazy and take risks.
The reserves of food and water maintain this small team and the authority of needle gold.
Give it to others, and the needle gold is not at ease. Zidi is the one he trusts most.
At the same time, Zidi's Potion also has great deterrence.
"Lord Zhen Jin, I will never fail to live up to your expectations for me. It's just... What about you, sir?" Zi Di cast a concerned look at Zhen Jin.
The girl is very clever.
She knew that when the two were together before, pin Jin had to bear the main luggage.
But now Zhen Jin handed these things to her. It was obvious that the battle of silver spear scorpion had exhausted him.
"I have nothing to do, and I can persist." Zhen Jin smiled and raised her voice slightly, "don't forget my strength. If you fall, I will fall. I must be the last one to fall."
Hearing this, everyone naturally felt certain.
But just then, a member of the exploration team suddenly fell to the ground and did not get up again.
Everyone was alarmed and hurriedly looked.
The comatose person is Bai Ya.
"White bud!" The recent explorers rushed over to wake him up.
As a result, he touched his forehead and immediately shouted, "it's so hot! He has a high fever."
Having a high fever is not good.
Especially in the absence of magic and pharmaceutical treatment.
A group of people gathered around Bai Ya.
Bai Ya is very popular. In fact, she is the most popular in the team.
The son of Hunter helped us a lot when we were poisoned. Not only that, his archery also brought great help to the team when hunting flying rat herds.
But now he passed out and couldn't wake up anyway.
"Give way." Cang must walk over, and the people immediately make way for a small space.
"Let me try." Soon, Zidi also shot.
It was not until Zhen Jin put his water bag close to Bai Ya's mouth and poured a lot of water that Bai Ya's eyes finally opened a gap.
He had no strength to speak, but stretched out his hand and pointed to his chest.
He looked very weak.
Cang Xu was the first to understand Bai Ya's meaning, and immediately stretched out his hand and felt out several letters from the pocket of Bai Ya's chest.
Seeing Cang Xu take out the letter, Bai Ya's eyes seemed to splash a glimmer of brilliance.
He pointed to the letters again and then passed out again.
"White bud, white bud!" Anyway, Bai Ya completely fell asleep this time.
"Is he dead?"
"Damn it, at this juncture."
"I guess this boy also knows he's dead. There must be his last words in these letters."
"This boy actually knows words? Isn't he the son of a hunter?"
Generally speaking, only aristocrats, mages, clergy, scholars and so on can read. These people accounted for only a small part of the imperial population, and most of them were illiterate.
The crowd discussed, and their faces showed worries, doubts, hesitations and many other expressions.
"Bai Ya is in good health. He fainted now because he was injured. He was injured because of cangxu!" Someone spoke again.
So, many eyes focused on Cang Xu.
Cang Xu was silent, as if he hadn't noticed the anger around him.
"OK." Before the conflict began, Zhijin killed the symptoms.
He looked up at the sky: "although the sun is still strong, we'd better move around first. Don't stay in one place for too long. The scorpions are still hidden underground."
"Yes, my Lord."
"I see, Lord Zhen Jin."
"What about white buds?" Someone asked.
Without hesitation, Zhen Jin blurted out, "of course, take him. I'm a Templar. As I said, I won't give up anyone. I'll try my best to save everyone!"
Everyone's hearts shook together, and suddenly they were calm.
