In the vast desert, dozens of heavily armed snakemen were holding poisonous spears and carefully patrolling this small area with sharp eyes. Any creature that was not a snakeman would be destructively killed by them.
This small team of snake men patrolled among each other. Wherever the team passed, they left traces of the snake's tail swinging out.
"These damn humans dare to rush into the depths of the desert so arrogantly. If we catch them, we must let them taste the pain of being eaten by ten thousand snakes!" Under the scorching sun, a seemingly leader said
The snake man wiped his sweat and cursed.
"Captain, what happened? Why did the clan suddenly enter martial law?" A snake man flicked his tail impatiently, his eyes swept across the empty desert, and asked with some doubts.
But he was dragged out early in the morning and then searched all over the desert.
Hearing this snake man's question, a dozen nearby snake men also cast doubtful eyes on the leading snake man. Obviously, they were not in high status, and they were not sure about the whole story.
"Hmph, what's going on? Last night, a group of strong human beings suddenly broke through the defenses of the Charming Snake Tribe and went deep into the desert. According to the information from the Charming Snake Tribe, there seemed to be one person among that group of people.
Dou Huang, three Dou Wangs and several Dou Ling experts." The leading snake man snorted with a slightly sinister look on his face.
Hearing this, the expressions of the surrounding snake people suddenly changed. One fighting king, three fighting kings? Oh my God, does the human empire want to start a war again? Such a terrifying lineup, among the snake people, no large tribe can stand alone
Resist.
"Now all the tribes of the Snake Tribe have entered a period of martial law, and according to the news I have received, the leaders of the eight major tribes have received orders from Her Majesty the Queen and have begun to rush to the temple in the center of the desert. The fastest, presumably
It can be reached at night, and the slowest one may take a day." When talking about Her Majesty the Queen, there was a piety like a fanatical believer on the face of the leading snake man.
"As long as three leaders can arrive at the temple, Her Majesty the Queen will issue an order to conduct a carpet search. Hmm, what can they do if they have a fighting emperor? A group of people who overestimate their capabilities, just wait for me, the strong snake people, to gather
After that, we must turn them into homeless dogs!" The leading snake man sneered, raised his head and looked at the uninhabited desert, shook his head helplessly, waved his hand, and shouted: "Let's go, change places, it seems from here
No trace of humans."
Following the leader's intimidating shouts, the team gradually searched away, leaving behind a large area of empty desert.
After the team disappeared at the end of the horizon, a sand dune suddenly began to squirm slightly. After a moment, a figure jumped out of the sand dune with a sky filled with yellow sand. His feet landed firmly on the sand and he raised his eyes.
Looking at the place where the snake team disappeared, he whispered helplessly: "It's getting more and more troublesome. Now there are snake patrols in this desert almost every once in a while..."
"But according to what they said before, the strong snake people are coming quickly. Although Furukawa and his team's lineup should not be underestimated, once all the strong snake people really gather together, I think they will have no choice but to retreat.
Let's go." The figure raised his head slightly, revealing a handsome face under the black robe. It was Xiao Yan who forced his way through the Charming Snake Tribe last night.
"If nothing else happens, I think Furukawa and his group will take action this afternoon at the latest. They should be very aware of the strength of the snake people. The longer they delay, the more dangerous it will be for them." Yao Lao came from the ring.
An old voice.
"Yes." Xiao Yan nodded slightly and took out the detailed map from the ring. He stared at the ferocious snake head symbol in the center of the desert and said softly: "This is the temple of Queen Medusa.
Well, there are many small and medium-sized tribes surrounding it. The temple is extremely well-defended, and Queen Medusa's bodyguards, the Medusa Snake Guard, are also stationed in it. This elite force is in the Gama Empire.
During the war with the snake people, they had made great achievements in battle, and even some of the empire's generals with elite legions were extremely wary of them."
"Huh... It seems that successfully retaking Qinglian's inner fire is a difficult task." Xiao Yan sighed lightly and rubbed his forehead in distress. In such a dangerous place, even with medicine,
It is impossible for the old protector to be unimpeded. After all, the current Yao Lao is only in the state of his soul, and his past strength cannot be fully exerted. And Queen Medusa is a super strong person with a reputation far and wide. If it is at this time
If Xiao Yan is targeted by her, I'm afraid the result won't be too good.
Furthermore, the overall strength of the Snake Tribe is much stronger than that of the Garma Empire. If it were not for the fact that it needs to deal with attacks from all directions at any time, I am afraid that the Garma Empire would have suffered heavy losses in previous battles.
"Alas..." Xiao Yan shook his head and asked in a low voice: "Teacher, what should we do now?"
"Hurry up and get to the Medusa Temple as soon as possible. If Furukawa and the others start fighting Queen Medusa by then, we will sneak into the temple to look for the strange fire. Although my strength is greatly reduced due to the state of my soul, but
If you want to hide your aura, at least it will be difficult for Queen Medusa to detect it." Yao Lao said thoughtfully.
Hearing this, Xiao Yan nodded slightly, took off the Xuan Zhong ruler from his back, put it into the ring, breathed out lightly, and the purple fighting spirit gauze gradually covered his body, and stepped on the ground with the soles of his feet.
, his figure was almost close to the ground, turning into a purple shadow and flying rapidly towards the route drawn on the map.
Because the sky was clear, Xiao Yan did not dare to spread his purple cloud wings and fly at high altitude. Otherwise, if he was discovered by the patrolling snake team below, he would be exposed prematurely. This pair of Xiao Yan, who wanted to be a fisherman,
That's not a very good thing.
Running across the ground, although the speed was slower, with the help of Yao Lao's powerful soul perception, the snake-men patrols scattered in the depths of the desert were all dodged by Xiao Yan in advance.
After nearly a few hours of almost desperate plundering, narrowly avoiding dozens of patrol teams along the way, as the scorching sun in the sky gradually set towards the west, a huge city finally appeared faintly.
Appeared at the end of the horizon.
As he got closer to the city, Xiao Yan discovered that many huge stones began to appear in the uniform yellow sand around this majestic city. Behind these rocks was the building where Meidu lived.
Queen Shah's temple city.
Hiding behind a boulder, Xiao Yan gasped for air and ran desperately for several hours. If it weren't for the support of the Qi Restoration Pill, he would have collapsed due to the exhaustion of his fighting spirit.
However, Xiao Yan's legs were now almost numb, and the tingling sensation made the corners of his mouth twitch slightly.
Reaching out to wipe away the sweat mixed with yellow sand on his face, Xiao Yan raised his head and looked at the gradually darkening sky. He took a long breath and said with a bitter smile: "I really worked hard for that Qinglian Earth Heart Fire.
ah…"
After lying on the boulder and resting for more than ten minutes, Xiao Yan's whole body felt sore and numb. He took out a Qi Recovery Pill from the ring and stuffed it into his mouth. After a while, he felt the fighting spirit gradually flowing through his body, and then he felt relieved.
He breathed, carefully turned over, and looked through the gaps in the boulders, looking at the huge city standing in the desert in the distance.
Perhaps due to martial law, the gates of this huge city are now closed. On the city wall, fully armed snake guards patrol back and forth on the city wall. In the empty spaces on the city wall, there are more than ten people
The big bird with a black head was also circling back and forth, its sharp eyes constantly scanning outside the city. Any slightest movement would cause these beasts to sound an alarm.
His eyes carefully swept over the city wall. Xiao Yan's face was slightly ugly. Although they were far apart, he could still find that the snake guards in this city were definitely stronger than the Charming Snake Tribe last night.
Among the snake-men guards, there were occasionally some snake-men with strange costumes. These snake-men had cold expressions and stood on the city wall like pillars. However, after a cursory glance, Xiao Yan found that among these snake-men
Within a few feet of the surrounding area, no other snake-men dared to set foot. It was obvious that they were quite afraid of these snake-men in strange costumes.
"These guys... must be the Medusa Guards, right? They are indeed very powerful..." Xiao Yan quietly retracted his gaze, huddled his body tightly between the gaps in the stones, and said softly with a wry smile.
"Let's wait here quietly now. I think Furukawa and the others will come here soon. When the chaos starts, we can sneak in secretly... In this city, I can already
I can roughly feel the existence of Qinglian's inner fire." Yao Lao's voice came from the dark ancient ring.
"Is it really here..." Hearing this, Xiao Yan's face was filled with joy. This may be one of the few pieces of good news when he was alone deep in the enemy's camp.
Quietly suppressing his joy again, Xiao Yan took out a golden blanket from the ring and put it on his body. Immediately, his body turned into a golden color that was the same color as the surrounding sand. If no one came closer,
Look, it's really hard to find someone hiding here.
Not long after Xiao Yan hid his figure, Yao Lao's deep voice suddenly sounded in his heart: "Be careful, there is a powerful aura approaching here."
Hearing Yao Lao's reminder, Xiao Yan's heart tightened, and his breathing quietly came down steadily, and Yao Lao's soul power also enveloped Xiao Yan.
He looked through some gaps in the blanket and looked at the distant sky. After a moment, a small black dot suddenly appeared on the edge of the sky. In the blink of an eye, it shot towards the huge city with a sharp sound of breaking wind.
.
Shortly after the black spot appeared, the guards on the city wall discovered it. Immediately, with the sound of an alarm, countless snake men raised their poisonous spears high, ready to shoot down the incoming attacker at any time.
Down.
When the Black Ink figure was about to reach a hundred meters away from the city, it suddenly stopped in mid-air, and a slightly cold voice shouted loudly: "The leader of the Ink Snake Tribe, Mobas, has an audience with Her Majesty the Queen!"
Hearing the shouts that resounded like rolling thunder in the desert, Xiao Yan's eyelids twitched slightly. This leader of the eight tribes of the Snake Tribe finally arrived first...
