Chapter 2021 Fighting the Dune Demon
After surviving until dawn in the wind and sand, everyone was already exhausted. Shakhan took the people to go around the canyon first to make sure that no more luminous spirits would appear. , and then let everyone come down. Two bodies of the victims last night and several dead monsters were left next to the airship. Tusi Xiong asked people to pack them up and place them in the stolen tomb first before looking for a chance to deal with them.
After a brief expression of grief, everyone started cooking again. After a night of suffering, no one had a good sleep, and they were even more hungry all night. After filling their stomachs, Tyson and Shakhan discussed arranging for some people to go back to the boat to rest first, while the other group went to explore further into the canyon.
The road in the valley is relatively complicated. It is like the lines that appear after a piece of glued glass is smashed. These lines are the large or small canyon cracks here. We dare not spread them too far apart. Search in small teams of seven. Soon they discovered new tombs in the valley, not just one, but a group of tombs.
The tombs are located in a larger gorge bend. The tombs appear on the gorge walls on both sides of the canyon, one next to the other, adjacent to each other. The styles are similar, but they are not the form of tombs in the Kingdom of Dusk. There are eleven buildings in total. Similarly, these tombs have all been stolen. The doors of the tombs are either open or have collapsed. People who go in to check out the tombs have nothing but rotten wood, let alone valuables. They are completely hollowed out tombs.
At noon, Shakhan discovered several tombs that had also been opened on the way back. There were tombs from the Kingdom of Dusk and other types. He judged that these tombs were ancient tombs built by different countries in different eras. The time span before and after may be quite astonishing, and the time when the tombs were stolen should also be different.
He told Tyson and Toast Bear about these findings when they woke up, and in the afternoon they continued to explore the canyon. Tusi Xiong led people to explore in depth, while Tyson and archaeological enthusiasts studied newly discovered tombs.
Alice, Jennifer, Red Fly, and Black Fly were organized into a team, but Fuzzy forced Ruola to follow them. The team of four men, four women and one child came to the most complicated area of the canyon to search. Their goal was to find a Phoenician-style tomb, so that Ruola could determine whether it was an ancient tomb related to Glonas.
Not long after, they found several mummies in a sheltered area. The bones were scattered here and there. They counted five people and six animals in total. The specific year of death of the deceased cannot be estimated, but judging from the environment here and the clothing and armor on the deceased, it is very likely that he is the group of businessmen that Marijuana Ban said.
Sure enough, Lucas found a copper plate with a caravan mark under the clothes of one of the deceased, and on it was the name of the company to which his caravan belonged. Alice found sharp weapon wounds and less obvious magical ablation wounds on the bones of the deceased, and concluded that they were caused by the light spirits that appeared here at night.
Blackfly Omar groped through each mummy and found several scattered magic crystal coins, gold and silver coins, two gemstone bracelets, a pair of khaki leather rawhide boots and a letter. But the paper of the letter shattered when touched. He handed the gem bracelet to Red Fly and put on the rawhide boots he took off from the mummy's feet.
After putting it on, he jumped up and stood on tiptoe, and said happily: "Hey, it's a little big, not bad. It's very light to wear. These shoes are mine." These boots are from five mummies. It's the only one in my body that's well-preserved, and it can achieve this kind of quality. I guess it's a treasure. He threw aside his brass-tipped combat boots.
A few people continued to search, and in a blink of an eye, the sun was about to set. Britney was worried that it would be easy to get lost when it got dark, so she suggested returning now. Alice and Jennifer agreed after discussing it. Just as they were about to return, they suddenly heard the sound of sand falling, and then saw something as tall as a hill sliding down from the sand dunes at the top of the canyon.
A large amount of sand slid into the canyon, and the mountains of sand rolled and stood up, moving towards Alice.
Dune Demon, this thing is not uncommon in the desert. The monster formed by the Sand Demon attached to the bones of the magical monster is still the Sand Demon in essence, but it has stronger power.
During the movement of the Dune Demon, several people indeed saw a huge skeleton exposed in the dune. Alice protected Ruola and Fuzi and quickly retreated. But by chance, they were in a dead end in the canyon, and the only way out was It was blocked by the falling Dune Demon.
Alice glanced at the nearly 100-meter-high canyon here. It was possible to lead people to jump out in a shallower place. It was too high here. She said: "Zola, Fuzi, you two hide better, leave this guy to me." She shook her gloved hands, and suddenly remembered that the water demon Gulap was sealed in the topaz butterfly. , summoned immediately. Furious in the dry air and scorching sunshine, Gulap slammed into the sand dunes. The Dune Demon was originally a mountain of sand, so how could it be afraid of collision? The scattered gravel immediately enveloped the Gulap who collided with it. In this environment, Gulap's strength was greatly restricted, and the extreme lack of moisture in the air made it difficult to show off his strength. Upon seeing this, Alice summoned Yeck with one palm, and climbed onto Gulap's back with a few leaps. Lucas, Codman, Black and Red Flies came over to help, but they had to deal with a sand mountain. There is really no good means, so I can only think of ways to repel the waves of sand that are constantly pouring into Gulap.
Alice ran to Gulap’s arm and punched the sand waves one after another. Gulap tried to push the Dune Demon away but couldn’t find it. The harder he pressed, the deeper he sank. When he tried to pull his arm out, it was tightly entangled in the sand and couldn't break free.
Actually, the Dune Demon is not a very ferocious monster. It is essentially a sand demon that is aimless and has no consciousness and soul. However, I don’t know if it is affected by the attachment to the skeleton, and the instinct will change. It has to engulf other living things, so humans pose a threat.
Gulap couldn't struggle, so he could only keep retreating, and the Dune Demon followed and pressed forward. If it were in a better environment and a more open area, Gulap wouldn't be so embarrassed, but here it couldn't let go at all. What's more, it is now in a very weak state. After it was conquered by Modo Biseang, it has been sealed in the Topaz Butterfly. It has not been rested or recuperated, and its body and mind are still frightened and irritable.
Fuz, who was in the rear, kept holding Ruola's hand and protecting her in the corner, but Gulap was getting closer and closer to them. Yeke was clinging to the canyon wall and jumping, watching the battle between the Dune Demon and Gulap eagerly, but unable to intervene. It swelled up and floated to the dune several times, trying to catch the skeleton exposed inside, but the quicksand on the Dune Demon's body rolled and flowed, almost burying it several times.
In fact, if there is a very good water magician at this time, and there is enough moisture and humidity to support the release of water magic, the entire sand dune magic will be soaked and condensed into a wet mud mountain that cannot flow, which will be easy to deal with. But the environment and conditions just don’t allow it. Instead, the Dune Demon manipulated the sand and attacked them.
A sand rain the size of silkworm chrysalises fell from the sky, and the quicksand on the ground continued to stir and form sand snakes. The Dune Demon even loosened its tent and blew the gravel over half of its body, causing it to fill the sky over the canyon like a fang and claws. of the devil.
However, the scattering of sand shocked everyone, and also gave Yeck an opportunity. He jumped up to Gulap's head and pointed at the Dune Demon to charge at Alice. He squeaked, then grabbed the metal teeth protruding from Gulap's head and made a gesture of forcefully moving it.
Alice understood instantly and looked at the huge skeleton vaguely hidden in the dark sand on the upper body of the Dune Demon. She took a deep breath, aroused the war in her body to the strongest state, grabbed the sand and struck it: "The lion roared~!"
The strong fighting air pressure blew away the suspended gravel around it. It scattered, revealing a section of white bones in the wind and sand. Like a white mouse, Yeck ran quickly along Gulap's arm, grabbed the section of the skeleton and pulled it back. Also because the sand was blown up and scattered in the air, the skeleton that was originally extremely difficult to pull out was not so difficult to pull out. Yeke used great strength to climb on Gulap. Gulap kicked his legs hard at the same time, grabbing the mountain wall with his toes and flying up the canyon. As soon as the two sides joined forces, the entire set of giant bones under the Zangda Sand Dune was pulled out. Yek picked up the giant bones and slapped them on the ground. The skeletons immediately shattered into countless pieces.
The Dune Demon, which had lost its attachment to its skeleton, was still writhing in the canyon. Gulap raised his somewhat dehydrated arms and gathered magic power to strike at the scattered sand in the valley. Then there was a sudden shock and a large amount of sand sprayed out. It was scattered everywhere, with dust rising in the sky, and almost burying others alive.
At this time, Toast Bear came with people. Alice quickly recalled Gulap to prevent it from losing more energy and water, and said to Toast Bear: "You are late."< br>
