Chapter 209 [Saint of Sand]


Chapter 209 [Saint of the Sand]

“Gululu...”

As soon as Xia En took a few steps in the desert, a strong sense of hunger rose from his abdomen, almost to the point of overpowering him. His sanity engulfed him.

Under the influence of hunger, the surrounding sand seems to have turned into some kind of delicacy, which has a strong attraction.

“Is this a side effect of [Swallowing Evolution]?”

Xia En understood something in his heart.

This hungry instinct may become the driving force for him to continue hunting deep-sea creatures.

But now, Xia En can only take out some reserved dry food from the space ring and eat it wholeheartedly.

As soon as he ate, he realized the seriousness of the problem.

After eating all the dry food, I was not even 10% full.

His intestines and stomach seemed to have become a bottomless pit. No matter how much food he put in, there was no response. On the contrary, the hunger became more intense.

"Hiss... [Gluttony], so this is what it feels like?"

Xia En suddenly understood the feeling of getting on the steam turbine of the [Black Swan] and murmured to himself.

"Be kind to Xiao Zhan from now on..."

In fact, Xia En's space ring also contains many common ingredients, such as dried meat and dried fish.

——Most of the prey caught previously were placed in Fei Ya’s space ring.

And his deep intuition told Xia En that what he wanted to eat now was more powerful and fresh meat!

Rustling... rustling...

At this moment, a strange sound came from the desert not far away.

Xia En turned around and looked.

I saw that tall sand dune, as if it suddenly came to life, undulating and flowing like water.

Seeing this strange scene, Xia En was not surprised but overjoyed, his eyes brightened.

"The prey...has found you!"

Relying on the talent of [Blood Power] and some strange instinct, he noticed that there was something hidden under the sand dunes. A creature of great vitality.

The next moment.

Xia En's body was like an arrow leaving the string, heading straight for the sand dunes.

At the same time, a bloody sword appeared in his hand, and he slashed down with one sword!

Boom!

The wind howled, and the terrible air waves spread together with the yellow sand.

The 4.5 comprehensive quality just after promotion is fully reflected in this sword.

With just one strike of the sword, this tall sand dune was completely blown away, leaving only a gully tens of meters long.

However, the prey hidden under the sand dunes disappeared, and only some dark red blood stains remained in place.

“Humph, he ran pretty fast.”

Xia En said, feeling the growing hunger in his belly.

“Today, I will defeat you!”

Somewhere in the desert.

A girl in a yellow robe stood up from the sand, shook her body, and shook off the sand on her yellow robe.

However, just such a simple action made the girl's face turn pale.

The cause was two gunshot wounds to her shoulder and lower abdomen.

The secret power of the Vampire clan remains in the wound, constantly destroying her body.

Before the sandstorm came, although she successfully injured the powerful outsider, she also attracted the other party's revenge.

That guy actually took the risk of being seriously injured and shot himself twice in the sandstorm.

“What a crazy woman!”

The girl cursed secretly: "Don't let me meet you again, or I will shoot out your eyeballs!"

Soon, another female native came to her and asked with concern.

"Holy Lady, are you okay?"

It can be heard that the language they use is still the lingua franca, but the intonation and pronunciation are somewhat different from the current mainland lingua franca. .

Closer to the lingua franca of mainland China in ancient times.

The girl shook her head: "I'm fine."

"How are the others?"

The female native looked around and said: "Most people were separated in the sandstorm, only us The three are still following you.”

Not long after, the remaining two natives came to the girl, waiting for her next order.

“No matter what, let’s go back to the tribe first.”

After thinking about it, the saint said: "With the guidance of the Lord of Radiance, they will find their way home."

None of the three natives had any objections.

However, just as they were about to leave, the female native's expression changed slightly and she looked in a direction behind her.

A strong vibration was coming from there.

The sand in the desert surges like a wave, the sand dunes on the surface continue to squirm and deform, and streaks of smoke and dust rise into the sky.

"Damn it, it's a giant sandworm!"

Seeing this, the girl also changed her expression: "At this time..."

The giant sandworm is [Sand Worm] Island] a special alienated creature, huge in size, powerful in body, and ferocious in temperament.

It is covered with a layer of hard armor, and can also drill into the sand sea at will and launch sneak attacks from under the desert.

Even for the natives of [Sand Island], the giant sandworm is a very difficult enemy.

Every year, many natives die from the mouths of giant sandworms.

In normal times, the girl might not be afraid of it.

But now, several companions were scattered, and she herself was seriously injured and could not use her best bow skills.

Facing the giant sandworm, I'm afraid it will be a disaster!

The three natives around her quickly realized the urgency of the situation, and the female native immediately said: "Holy Lady, you go first!"

"We are here to wean you off!"

The girl bit her lips and said with firm eyes, "No!"

"We, the Yongyue clan, have never had a precedent of a saint abandoning her fellow clan members and escaping. "

As she spoke, she pulled out the dark yellow long bow from the mark on her chest, preparing to welcome the rolling yellow sand coming in this direction.

The eyes of the three natives were moved. They said nothing more and just silently guarded the girl.

As the giant sandworm moved, a small sandstorm swept over.

Not only that, the desert beneath the four of them seemed to have turned into a quicksand whirlpool, pulling them down towards the center of the whirlpool.

Ordinary people cannot stand firmly on this kind of ground and will be swallowed up by quicksand in an instant.

The four of them are residents of the [Sand Island] after all. They have long adapted to the desert environment, so naturally they will not be panicked by this.

The girl opened her eyes wide, trying to find the giant sandworm in the yellow sand.

In her current state, she can only shoot one more arrow at most.

She must kill this sandworm with this arrow!

At this time.

The quicksand beneath his feet suddenly spurted upward, and an extremely ugly head emerged from under the desert.

Rather than a "head", it is more like the end of several large split mouths, like a flower of flesh and blood in full bloom, filled with densely packed sharp teeth.

The brain, eyes, nose, ears...these organs simply do not exist in the body of this ugly sandworm.

In an instant, the girl opened her eyes wide, drew her long bow, and was about to shoot into the mouthparts of the sandworm.

The three natives were also facing a formidable enemy, preparing to block the sandworm's mouth with their bodies.

What the four of them didn’t expect was.

The giant sandworm had no desire to attack them. It just took a deep breath and then plunged into the quicksand.

Until the sandworm's body was completely submerged in the desert, several natives were still in a daze.

The giant sandworm is cruel and extremely aggressive.

Seeing a group of them alone, there is no reason not to launch an attack?

"What's going on?"

The female native looked confused and asked: "Doesn't this sandworm dislike us?"

Another native guessed: "Could it be that it came out of the desert just to breathe?"

Recalling the actions of the sandworm, the girl felt a little rushed and panicked for no reason, and couldn't help but murmured: "I Why do you think...it seems to be running away?"

"Is there something chasing it?"

The female native's heart skipped a beat.

This giant sandworm alone is already an enemy they cannot deal with. What could be the existence that can make the sandworm flee in panic?

The girl breathed a sigh of relief: "Anyway, we are safe, for now..."

Before she could finish her words, suddenly, another gust of wind howled past them.

"Why come again! Has the sandstorm not subsided yet?"

The girl turned her head and was about to protect her body with her yellow robe, but her pupils suddenly narrowed. Because she saw...

In the middle of the sandstorm caused by the strong wind, there was a figure, running towards him at an extremely fast speed.

In other words, it was the arrival of that person that caused this sandstorm!

"...How is it possible?"

However, the man in the sandstorm did not notice the existence of these four people at this time.

All he could see was the plump and attractive sandworm.

This strong wind came and went away just as quickly.

A group of four people saw the strong wind heading straight for the sandworm.

And soon, a bloody sword light instantly spanned a hundred meters and fell directly into the desert.

The entire desert seemed to have become quiet because of this sword.

Immediately afterwards, the sand sea began to shake - it was the giant sandworms struggling desperately underground.

A large amount of yellow sand was thrown into the air and fell down one after another.

The unlucky group of four happened to be within the range of this yellow sand, so naturally they were unable to escape.

……

……

Not long.

The girl crawled out of the sand with difficulty and took two quick breaths.

In the situation just now, even she had to eat several mouthfuls of sand.

The girl rubbed her shoulder. The wound seemed to hurt a little more, and she couldn't help but muttered.

"Unlucky, unlucky, unlucky..."

"My luck today seems to be really not very good."

Just as she was muttering in a low voice, she suddenly smelled a unique smell of meat and couldn't help but swallow softly.

She went out in a hurry today and hadn't had enough lunch yet.

The girl looked in the direction of the scent, but couldn't help being stunned.

I saw the lee of the sand dunes not far away.

A man was sitting by a campfire, and a grill had already been set up on the campfire.

There is a large ball of milky white meat on the grill. As it is constantly turned and grilled, the meat is fragrant and gradually takes on a golden color.

What really surprised the girl was that there was a fat sandworm corpse lying next to the man.

It is the giant sandworm that was raging earlier!

“Is it him?”

After seeing the other person’s face, the girl thought for a moment and soon remembered the identity of the young man.

Isn't this the outsider being chased by that crazy woman?

But he didn’t seem so strong before?

"Is he hiding his strength?"

The girl guessed in her heart: "The adults in the clan have said that outsiders are very insidious and cunning, and are good at hiding their strength. "Bad water."

"Yes, this guy should be that kind of person!"

Thinking of this, the girl looked at the young man with alert eyes.

Inexplicably, another thought flashed through her mind -

"But this guy is pretty good-looking..."

Bah, bah, bah!

What’s the use of looking good!

After all, he is just a despicable outsider!

When the girl's thoughts were ups and downs, the three natives who followed her also crawled out of the sand.

Soon, they also spotted the young man enjoying the feast beside the sand dune, and they couldn't help but look wary.

The female native approached the girl's ear and asked softly: "Holy Lady, what should I do now?"

"Do you want to do something?"

The girl shook her head: "We are no match for him."

Even the giant sandworm died without any suspense. With their current combat power, they would die if they took action.

The female native asked again: "Then... do you want to escape?"

The girl's face was bitter.

When dealing with sandworms earlier, the man did not pay attention to them.

But now, she clearly felt that the young man's eyes fell on them from time to time, and he had obviously discovered them.

In this desert without any obstacles, once you escape, it is only a matter of time before you are caught.

You can't fight, you can't escape, you can't escape.

This is the reason why the girl is in trouble.

After hesitating for a moment, the girl gritted her teeth and said, "Let's go directly and ask him what he wants!"

"I helped him at least just now. At worst, I will fight with him."

The three of them tried to persuade him, but they couldn't think of any better way for a while, so they could only follow the girl towards the young man.

However, the closer they got to the young man, the stronger the smell of meat became, and it also carried a strange fragrance that they had never smelled before.

The girl suppressed her greed and asked with a straight face: "Hey, outsider over there, you..."

Xia En raised a bunch of fragrant roasted sandworm meat, Asked: "Want to eat?"

"...Huh?"

The girl was stunned for a moment: "What do you mean?"

"You want to use it to bribe me? I, Sha Jingjing, can't just skewer barbecue. ..."

"Gulu..."

The sound of gastrointestinal peristalsis coming from the girl's belly interrupted her vowed words.

Even though most of her face was covered by the robe, the faintly red skin on her neck still showed her uneasy mood.

“Ahem.”

Xia En coughed twice and said calmly.

“You really don’t want to eat it? Think of it as me repaying your kindness for that arrow.”

With his current perception, he naturally heard the conversation between Sha Jingjing and the other indigenous people. He also recognized the other party’s identity.

In the mouth of the vampire Twilight, it seems to be called——

[Saint of the Sand]! ?

Of course Xia En would not miss such an opportunity to establish a good relationship with the indigenous people.

This is how this conversation happened.

“Hmph, don’t underestimate me! You outsiders are so cunning and insidious that you must have poisoned this barbecue!”

Sha Jingjing said with integrity: "Even if I, Sha Jingjing, starve to death, I will not eat anything from you!"

Xia En sighed: "Oh, that's such a pity, these spices are all It’s a good thing.”

“Not to mention [Sand Island], you can’t even buy it on ordinary islands under the federal government.”

As he said this, Xia En was happy. ate happily.

"Spice? What is that?"

Sha Jingjing smelled the delicious fragrance and couldn't help but ask the people next to her.

The female native next to her whispered: "It is said to be something that makes food taste better. It seems to be more valuable than gold outside the island!"

"Saint, This guy doesn't seem to be poisoned..."

Sha Jingjing's mind was spinning.

If this outsider wants to kill her, he can't escape anyway. If he eats an extra piece of barbecue before dying, wouldn't he make money for himself?

If outsiders didn't want to kill her and ate a few pieces of barbecue for free, wouldn't they have earned it themselves?

After thinking about this clearly, the girl's thinking suddenly became more open-minded.

She stretched out her hand and said generously: "Give me a bunch!"

……

……

After a while.

Sha Jingjing held a piece of barbecue and her mouth was full of oil as she ate it, like a little tabby cat.

“Hmm, it smells so good!”

However, Xia En’s attention fell on the top of Sha Jingjing’s head as she took off her hood.

There, a pair of furry dog ​​ears stood upright, as if listening to the surroundings.

The true identity of this [Sand Saint] is actually a demi-human! ?

Not only that, the three natives next to him also have similar characteristics.

At this moment, Sha Jingjing said: "Don't get me wrong, we are not the subhumans you outsiders call us."

"But the noble Yongyue Clan!”
