Above the desert, the setting sun is like blood, and the afterglow of the setting sun announces on the horizon that this dangerous wilderness is about to enter a more dangerous and cold night.
At this time, all professionals start to set up camp and temporarily stop to prepare for a rest.
High in the sky over the dry highlands, a huge king insect was still flying alone.
Xue Hua did not arrange for a group of alien dragons to escort them, because with the current flying height of the king insects, there were very few monsters that could attack them.
There are not many flying monsters in the desert. The most typical one is the cunning hell vulture that Xue Hua once encountered - the scavenger.
However, the maximum flying height of this huge bird-shaped monster is only less than 3,000 meters. Even the champion monsters and elite monsters among them have a ceiling limit of no more than 3,500 meters.
The king insect is currently flying at a full altitude of 9,000 meters, almost approaching the troposphere of this world's atmosphere.
Such a height is a forbidden area that is absolutely impossible for scavengers to reach, at least for scavenger projections.
Moreover, at this flying height, Xue Hua does not have to worry about being seen by people on the ground, because even the Amazon with the sharpest eyes can basically only see a small black person as long as he does not use the inner vision skill of more than ten levels.
Dots flew across the sky.
Therefore, under this careless situation, Xue Hua and the others moved forward faster than he expected. They originally thought it would take about five days to walk, but they actually saw the distance in the afternoon of the fourth day.
The "conspicuous" boundary line between oasis and dry highland.
——That is really a very clear boundary line.
On this side of the border is the dry highland, a typical boundless wilderness, a model of the Gobi Desert where you won't see a trace of green for ten days and a half.
However, on the other side of the "borderline", there is a huge oasis full of green.
The huge and abrupt gap between the two areas can make people feel that there is something wrong with the space here. Could it be that some great god was joking and cut off a certain area in the Kurast Rainforest, and then
Has it been moved here?
Because compared with the desolate and arid dry wasteland nearby, this oasis can be said to be full of green trees and green mountains...well, no mountains...
But the water show is real.
Xue Hua observed this oasis under the night through the night vision of the monitoring king insect, and saw huge lakes and blue lines of streams connected together like mirrors.
Coupled with the tropical plants and some coconut trees by the lake, it can be said that if Xue Hua had not seen a large group of small black dot-like insects whizzing through the leaves of the forest, this place could be called
It's a resort.
However, it was precisely because of those bugs that made one's scalp numb and could even drive him to death from trypophobia that Xue Hua's impression of this place suddenly changed from a "good place" to a "haunted place".
Although he is the master of the insect swarm, it does not mean that he likes to be held and nibbled by insects...
Therefore, when the king insect finally arrived over the oasis at nightfall, Xue Hua really didn't want to go down at all...
But it won't work if he doesn't go on. Although now that he has the skill "Dominator Will", even if he doesn't go out to kill monsters every day, the experience feedback brought by Zagara's continuous development of the insect swarm will not slow down his upgrade speed.
Since he reached level 13 in the desert, his experience bar has increased to about 90%.
You know, it has only been more than ten days since he upgraded, and he has not killed a single monster in these more than ten days.
Under this situation, his experience bar is still jumping up at a rate of about 8% every day. Combined with the depth of his experience pool, this rate can be said to be very shocking.
However, when it comes to the upgrade speed, it can only be too slow, but not too fast.
Xue Hua can level up at this speed without killing monsters, but what if he is killing monsters?
Doesn’t the upgrade speed have to break through the sky?
Moreover, the purpose of his coming here is to cause trouble for the mother of sandworms, and he will definitely burrow into the ground when the time comes.
He doesn't even have a senior commander around him now, and he doesn't trust the insect mothers alone to find the components of Horadric's staff, so he will definitely go with them this time.
Since he has to go down sooner or later, it is better to go down now and adapt to the environment here, so as not to cause any problems in the plan due to his incompatibility, which will be troublesome.
Xue Hua found many reasons for himself, but finally gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, and with a "heroic and righteous" attitude under the amused looks of the two little girls, let the king insect put him on the ground among the trees.
...
As soon as he landed, an astonishing hot flash hit his face, followed by the sweet smell of rotten wood and a large...banana tree?
Xue Hua's eyes widened, and he felt a little confused for a moment when he looked at the fruit trees in front of him that looked very similar to the tropical banana trees on earth and the bunches of attractive fruits on their branches...
what happened?
Are there bananas in this world?
But why haven’t I eaten it before, and haven’t seen anyone selling it in the market?
Xue Hua stared at the bunch of big yellow bananas in front of him, and subconsciously wanted to reach out and pick a few to taste. However, at this moment, two dimensional doors suddenly opened next to him, and Isa's two long-lost tops
Tentacles with sharp thorns stabbed out from the dimensional door fiercely, and one tentacle fiercely swept around Xue Hua, only to hear several crisp sounds of "chichi", those "big bananas" that Xue Hua was about to reach out to pick.
"Immediately cut it into two pieces in the middle.
But what is exposed inside these "tropical fruits" is not the soft and sweet banana pulp, but a terrifying big mouth full of green juice and covered with sharp wooden thorns!
Most of these "banana monsters" were directly eliminated by Isa's attack, but the other half still opened their camouflaged skin fiercely, revealing their terrifying mouths, and screamed at Xue Hua.
Xue Hua immediately took out his cane and tapped it forward. A dimensional door opened. Several exterminators walked out first and raised their V-shaped bone shields to block him.
At the same time, the two girls who left the belly bag of the king insect behind Xue Hua also saw the situation in the field. They directly let go of the tentacles of the king insect, jumped down from the mid-air, and faced the piece of grass that was stretching towards Xue Hua.
The "banana tree" with huge vines was shot by several ice arrows and rockets.
These strange trees seemed to be afraid of fire. My sister Annie's rockets were very effective, and they directly drove back the vines of the strange trees in one direction.
Although my sister Funya's ice arrows are not as capable of restraining these ghosts as my sister's rockets, the deceleration and freezing effects of the ice arrows still play a significant role.
A layer of blue ice immediately began to spread on the vines hit by the ice arrows, and the good equipment Xue Hua gave the two girls also showed quite good effects at this time.
Although the two girls were not yet at a high level, with the super high attack power brought by their equipment, they still bought enough time for Xue Hua to summon the insect swarm.
While the two girls were providing fire support, Isa was not idle either. Its first-level commander skill allowed it to launch two attacks on the enemy while defending the Overlord.
The first attack just now was used to deal with the attacking organs of those monsters, and for the second attack, Isha used it on the strange tree closest to Xue Hua.
At a very tricky angle, the tentacle avoided the defense and counterattack of all vines and banana mouthparts, and pierced the entire body of the strange tree directly from the bottom of the trunk.
Then, Isa flicked her tentacles, and the unlucky strange tree was cut in half directly from the middle by the adjutant.
After taking care of this guy, Isa's commander skill ended. It retracted its tentacles and hid in Leviathan again.
With the help of sisters Isa and Rogge, Xue Hua also successfully summoned an army of insects including thousands of cockroaches, springtails, and more than a thousand hydralisks. He successfully stood firm and began to attack these insects.
The weird banana tree fights back.
However, just when Xue Hua was about to let the Hydralisks fire a volley of explosive spines to start the counterattack, the king insect above their heads that had not yet had time to take off suddenly went into trouble again.
It seemed to be attacked by a large number of micro-flying monsters.
