Skalash has the same function as a camel. It has a high hump on its back. A large amount of fat is stored in the hump, which allows Skalash to survive for more than a month without water or food.
Shurima's desert ship Skalas has very long legs, a head that looks a bit like a bull, and a pair of curved horns on its forehead. This is a desert ship that has attributes similar to those of a camel, but its appearance is somewhat different.
The boat is also the most important means of transportation on the Shurima continent.
Lester did not prepare much food and water for himself. He had already tested his own limits in Demacia. Relying on Elena's power, he only needed a very low amount of magic elements to maintain his own consumption.
This is the only extraordinary power he can utilize, so he doesn't need to think too much about food and water sources.
Walking south along the eastern foothills of the Targon Mountains, walking on the yellow sand, to the east is the Shurima Desert, where the temperature difference between day and night is huge. However, Scarash, named 'Old Babe', maintains a calm and unhurried appearance, always with a
Looking for an oasis farther south at a neither fast nor slow speed. Without many giant beasts, even the old Shurimans who call themselves the "living map" dare not easily enter the Shuriman that symbolizes death.
Rima Desert.
After resting for a day on the small oasis, Lester and Old Baby set off again before dark.
"Friend! It's very dangerous to walk alone in the desert! Do you really not want to come with us?"
Also resting in the oasis, the middle-aged leader of the Shurima trade caravan extended an invitation again.
"We are also going to Naerimajie in the south. I think we can go together."
"No, thank you for your kindness."
Waving his hand, Lester climbed onto Old Baby's back and disappeared over the horizon.
"Dad, dad, why doesn't that big brother come with us?"
The little girl with two pigtails shook the man's big hand.
"Dad, didn't you say the desert is dangerous?"
With a wry smile, the man touched his daughter's little head and said softly.
"The desert is really dangerous. Maybe that big brother is not afraid of danger."
…
"Hululu~"
Scarash instinctively took a few steps back, breathing rapidly and heavily.
"It seems there is something you are afraid of."
After patting Old Baby's neck a few times, Lester jumped off Scarash's back and took off the cold iron spear.
Under the bright moonlight, five sand tigers lowered their bodies to surround one person and one animal from four directions.
After untying the cloth wrapping the cold iron spear, Lester once again comforted Old Baby's head.
"Old man, just stay here. Don't be afraid and don't run around. I'll protect you from death."
Not sure if he understood what the man said, Old Baby snorted and stood still.
"Good guy."
Holding the cold iron spear, Lester looked at the sand tigers, which were as big as a calf. They seemed to be a family, with three small ones and two big ones. The largest sand tiger had a strong desire to attack.
From the beginning, Lester selected the most suitable target for attack.
"Roar!
"
The leading male sand tiger let out a very threatening roar. The grinning sand tiger revealed its bloody mouth, smelly saliva dripping from the corner of its mouth, and its eyes exuded the green light of a carnivorous hunter. He took the lead in attacking Lester.
attacked.
"die!"
The moonlight condensed on the tip of the spear, penetrated from the mouth into the sand tiger's body and crushed its organs. The largest sand tiger died instantly.
Turning around and throwing away the dead Sand Tiger, the gun barrel was drawn like a black dragon's tail towards the Sand Tiger that was rushing towards Old Baby. It let out a dull moan and rolled around a few times without making any sound.
Seeing that her husband and eldest son were killed by the enemy in the blink of an eye, the tigress wailed and turned around and ran away with her two children without hesitation. Lester did not pursue them, but took out a skinning knife and took out the tiger's skin and teeth.
Down here, desert tribes rarely directly circulate metal currency. Gold coins and gems cannot buy anything in the desert. The real hard currency is knives and clean water, and tiger teeth are excellent materials for making weapons and arrows.
Hanging his trophy on Old Baby's back, Lester smiled and touched the chin of Scarash who was completely relaxed. Scarash took the initiative to hump the man, appearing even more intimate than before.
"Come on, old Baby, our journey has just begun."
"Hulu~"
…
Large sand scorpions hiding under the dunes, Shurima vultures flying in the sky looking for carrion, desert army ants, worms and savage sand beasts hiding in the quicksand...
These deadly hunters who were able to silence the Shurima people were transformed into useful parts, and were hung docilely by the men on the tall Sklash hump, witnessing with their lives who was the most ruthless and deadly hunter in the desert.
A simple animal sinew connects two animal skin luggage, a scorpion's poisonous needle, the black feathers and beak of a dead vulture, and the chitinous carapace of a worm collide with each other in a friendly way, telling each other's wonderful experiences.
Except for the crazily surging army ants that forced the man to run away, there seemed to be nothing in the desert that could bring danger to the man. After understanding this, Old Baby even walked a little longer.
With unprecedented momentum, Scarash straightened his neck and proudly carried his master on his back and looked at everything he saw. Suddenly, from a distance, it seemed to be the same thing.
He has always seen the changes in Old Baby, and Lester is also thinking whether it is the power of the runes in his body that has changed Scarash, or whether it is the smart Scarash who understands that he has a very powerful master.
Become ordinary and confident.
The peace on the desert soon passed. On this day, Lester discovered the sand beast rider following him. In the evening, thirteen fierce bandits armed with various weapons surrounded him.
Old Baby was so frightened.
After glancing at the handsome man who was silently holding a spear, before the boss said a word, the boss's younger brother licked the unvenomed snake-shaped dagger and threatened loudly.
"Look, a delicious pig is walking alone in the desert. This must be a gift from God. I haven't eaten fresh meat for a long time..."
Oncoming was a big brother's love, Dabitou.
"Are you stupid? A pig can hang so many weird things? See which one you can defeat?"
After being purified by his brother, the young man with brown hair and a single braid took a closer look and finally discovered the beast parts on Scarash's back. When his eyes were on the indifferent gun-wielding man again, the young man with a single braid finally felt the feeling.
A chilling pressure tightened his hips, and he shrank back and stopped talking.
"I don't think you surrounded me to talk to me."
Lester glanced at the bandits and fixed his gaze on the bald man who led them.
"You've been with me all day, should you lie down and have a good rest? I think this place is very suitable for you to sleep."
