Sandworms are scary monsters in the eyes of others, but in Xu Feng's view, they are not all bad.
Sandworms are huge and need to eat at least several tons of food every day. They are not afraid of meat and vegetables, and they are a dominant presence in the desert.
But in the desert, sandworms cannot eat enough most of the time, and in the end they have to live by eating sand.
If you eat too much sand, it is inevitable that there will be some special metal elements that cannot be digested and will eventually be excreted by the sandworms. What Xu Feng is looking for is these special metal elements excreted by the sandworms. These metal elements are called active
Metal is priceless.
In his previous life, a blacksmith mistakenly entered a sandworm nest in the desert and discovered that the feces excreted by these sandworms turned out to be extremely precious high-level forging materials, and could also be used to forge holy-level equipment. Since then,
More and more people are beginning to follow the traces of sandworms, which has also led to the death of many secret realm apostles from sandworms.
Xu Feng jumped down from the sand dune and ran towards the cave passage that the sandworm had just drilled out.
This passage is more than two meters high. Xu Feng doesn't feel crowded at all when walking in it. The sand around the passage is completely condensed by the mucus secreted on the surface of the sandworm's skin. It can still hold up for a while, but it takes a long time.
, when the mucus dries, the entire passage will become very dangerous, and Xu Feng knows that he must hurry up.
"I hope we can find a resting area for sandworms nearby, otherwise, I'm afraid we'll end up empty-handed this time!" Xu Feng thought to himself.
Xu Feng had no hope at all that he could find a sandworm nest. Finding a sandworm nest in a random sandworm passage was like a stroke of luck.
However, when sandworms wander in the desert, they cannot keep moving. There will always be times when they stop to rest. At this time, the sandworms may excrete. As long as you find the area where the sandworms rest temporarily, you will have the opportunity to find active materials.
Metal.
After Xu Feng walked more than a hundred meters along the passage, he finally found a large space. This space was actually a temporary resting place shaped by sandworms rolled into a ball. The fused skin secretions were also more numerous than those of sandworms in the desert.
There are also many considerations for the passage through the interior, which must last for at least ten hours, otherwise it will be impossible for the sandworms to rest peacefully.
This temporary resting place was not big, only thirty or forty square meters. In the dark space, Xu Feng searched carefully with a flashlight, but could not find the active metal, and he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
Sandworms do not excrete frequently, and they will only excrete once every ten days and a half at the fastest. Moreover, sandworms will only eat yellow sand if they cannot capture enough food. Only after sandworms have swallowed a large amount of yellow sand will they excrete.
Only then is it possible to condense that special active metal in the body!
Therefore, searching for active metals depends more on luck and chance. It does not mean that you will be able to gain something if you are strong.
"Unlucky, this sandworm just rested without excreting..." Xu Feng couldn't help but sigh, subconsciously opened the personal attribute interface, and stared at the destiny that had been upgraded to level 3 of the S-level talent for a long time.
For the Level 3 Destiny attribute, one of the blessing points has been increased by 4 points. Xu Feng had not been exposed to this attribute in his previous life, and he did not know whether the four points of blessing were low or high.
"Now it seems that four points of good fortune are nothing, they can only be regarded as slightly higher than ordinary people!" Xu Feng sighed and said to himself.
At this moment, a sharp neighing sound suddenly penetrated Xu Feng's ears.
"Eh..." Xu Feng's eyes suddenly became lively. This neighing sound was extremely sharp and full of childishness. It was not made by an adult sandworm at all.
The roar of adult sandworms is like that of a giant beast, low and hoarse, full of intimidation. Only newly hatched sandworm larvae can emit such a childish and sharp roar.
"Did I get lucky today?" Xu Feng had a look of surprise on his face.
Sandworm larvae can only exist in sandworm nests. Xu Feng did not expect that he would find a sandworm nest just by walking into a sandworm passage. It was like walking on the road and a sudden wind blew over him.
I picked up the lottery ticket and saw that it was the first prize.
"Four points of luck, this is much more powerful than I imagined!" Xu Feng couldn't help but open his eyes wide, with an incredible look on his face.
The next moment, Xu Feng quickly ran towards the direction where the sound came from. After a while, more and more sandworm passages appeared in front of Xu Feng, like a maze.
The scene before him not only did not make Xu Feng feel upset, but the joy on his face became more intense. The more sandworm passages there were, the more sandworms had been here, and the more likely it was that it was a sandworm nest.
Soon, the surrounding environment changed from a yellow sand channel to a rock wall, which indicated that the sandworms had penetrated the desert and entered the rock formations below.
I walked through the darkness for more than half an hour. Although the sandworm passages are complicated, as long as the sandworm passage you choose is downward, it is fine. After all, this is not a real maze. The source of almost any sandworm passage is a sandworm.
Lair, so there is no situation where you will have no way out and become a dead end if you make the wrong choice.
Soon, Xu Feng's feet were in the air, and his eyes suddenly opened up. Dots of light bloomed in the dark cave. Thick sandworms, like giant pythons, slowly wriggled in the underground cave. Several of them were two to three meters long.
, arm-thick sandworms are surrounded by countless thick sandworms as big as train cars, and it is difficult to detect their existence unless you look carefully.
Zhiang, Zhiang~
Several sharp neighing sounds were heard. Xu Feng stared at the several sandworm larvae in the underground cave, and his saliva almost flowed down.
Compared with the few sandworm larvae in front of me, active metals are nothing! You must know that once sandworms become adults, they cannot be tamed. Those who tamed sandworms and used them as transportation vehicles in previous lives captured sandworm larvae and raised them from childhood using secret methods.
, as long as they can be domesticated successfully, you can have as many active metals as you need, and you don’t need a lot of yellow sand to cultivate them yourself, you just need to let them swallow various metal ores.
"There are at least seventeen or eight adult sandworms in front of us. With their protection, it may not be an easy task to obtain sandworm larvae..." Xu Feng frowned slightly and stared at the squirming adults in the cave.
The sandworm looked up.
After a while, Xu Feng took a deep breath, stretched his right hand forward, and silently said in his heart: "Control Qi!"
The next moment, a sandworm larvae floated up out of thin air, as if an invisible hand was holding the sandworm larvae.
