Not long after, three or four heads that were even bigger than him popped out from the same position.
They were very vigilant and scanned the team behind Mai Fan three times with their eyes...
After estimating the strength of Mai Fan's team, he shook his head towards Mai Fan.
"You guys go around the back."
"There is a long and narrow passage of thorns over there. There is a side door on the side of the passage. Go in from that way."
It was impossible for their group to enter the main habitat.
But behind the Lizard Fortress, there is a long and narrow thorn guardrail passage.
Through the passage you can reach another independent living area.
There are not many tribesmen living in that area.
In most cases the land is vacant.
Above the open space, there is a row of independent rooms with the same layout.
The facilities in the room are relatively simple, to put it bluntly, there is nothing.
But it is enough to provide shelter from the wind and rain and a temporary place to stay.
It is a rare and safe place in this vast Gobi desert.
This is where these lizardmen asked Mai Fan and his party to go.
This is a place specially prepared by the Lizardmen community for travelers and traveling merchants passing by.
Sometimes, when lizardmen from other tribes or representatives of tribes that have dealings with them come over, they will also be arranged here.
No matter when, the lizard people will never relax their vigilance against outsiders.
If anything happens to these people.
They could only break into the Lizardmen's base camp through this narrow passage full of thorns and traps.
Perhaps this group of people had been wiped out by the lizardmen blocking the only entrance before they could reach the back door of the lizardmen.
Although they are a neutral ethnic group, the combat effectiveness of the lizardmen ranks among the top ten among the desert ethnic groups.
Their clumsy style, sharp claws and teeth, and their own inherent toxicity are all their magic weapons for victory.
And among the lizardmen, there will also be some special races that are naturally close to the elements.
For example, the Lizardman Sacrifice who can control yellow sand and loess...this is why they are powerful and confident.
Seeing the lizard man's arrangement, Mai Fan and his party didn't think there was any problem.
This also indirectly proves that this group of lizardmen has a fixed source of food and is a relatively stable group.
If they encounter a lizardman tribe that is about to suffer from famine...
Then their meeting here will turn into a brutal fight.
Don't look at it. The main food intake of lizard people is root plants.
But Mai Fan knew that this race was omnivorous, and could even be said to have started as a carnivore.
It's like what they see now.
There were four or five deep dug pits on the edge of the open space that was allowed to enter.
In the middle of the big pit, hissing, is a group of snakes entangled together.
Various colorful venomous snakes live in it.
It's a bit frustrating, but I can only struggle in a small space.
"This is?"
Black Iron Tower, who had never seen it before, approached Mai Fan and asked.
The stupid troll on the side suddenly became wise.
"Ah, my uncle told me, and it seems that we also talked about it in the troll school..."
"It is said that the desert lizard people are a group of people who are very good at raising food."
"Because desert species are relatively barren, they found ways to raise many populations to provide tribes with a stable source of food."
"This snake... looks vicious. Is it okay if the lizard man ate it?"
Mai Fan shook his head, this was not something they had to worry about.
After entering, the map in the diary showed him some interesting places.
The things raised in those places are more interesting than the things here.
They really didn't expect that in the desert, they could also see a group of rabbits, mice, and a deep pool that remained undiscovered.
It seems that this is also the reason why this group of lizard people can set up camp here.
It doesn't matter, as long as it doesn't harm people in their group, they don't care what the other party eats and drinks.
After having a stable place to live, Mai Fan and his team completely relaxed.
They packed their bags and took out their own food.
Mai Fan sorted out the supplies he collected along the way based on the instructions in his diary, and planned to make some basic transactions with the lizard people here.
Replenish supplies and prepare for the next journey.
Judging from the markings on the big map, the second half of the Gobi Desert is full of red dots.
They were afraid that they would not have a stable life, and they would not be able to stay to replenish supplies.
This should be their last peace in the Gobi.
But Mai Fan's idea was probably a mistake.
Just when they were happily exchanging things with the lizardman guards...
Suddenly there was a noise in the sky above this group.
"Corpse vulture! It's a corpse vulture! Who on earth failed to dispose of the leftover bones! It lured these things here!"
"What the hell! What the hell!"
Quack, quack, quack, an unpleasant sound like rubbing glass, getting closer and closer...
A scream came from the lizard man's habitat which was quite far away.
No matter how many thorns there are, a rounded vault cannot be completed.
Therefore, the area above the lizardmen is relatively weak in defense.
Now, in the sky over there, there are three or four little dots hanging.
From a distance, it looks dark and oppressive, just like the sky.
"No!" The guard opposite Mai Fan didn't care about the things in his hands. He threw the supplies towards the knights of the Black Iron Tower, picked up the spear in his hand, and ran towards the habitat.
Black Iron Tower and his team quickly got behind Mai Fan...looking solemnly and staring at the sky.
"This kind of thing lives in groups."
"It would be fine if it could be solved once and for all, but if one of these things escapes..."
I'm afraid it will be a large-scale revenge operation.
I don’t know who among the lizard people was negligent and threw the uneaten food into the open area.
You must know that the most powerful thing about surviving in the desert is that the sense of smell of the people here is more sensitive than their eyesight.
In this empty and scarce area, the smell spreads longer than the sight.
The corpse vulture, which is particularly keen on scavenging, is the leader among these groups.
Now, they have discovered this group by smell and are interested in the food of this group.
Wouldn't this group be too big for them?
An adult lizardman can reach two and a half meters in length or even more.
If you add their long tails... a corpse vulture can't defeat an adult lizard man at all.
But these cunning corpse vultures set their targets on the little lizards that haven't had time to run home.
These immature lizards, just like the lizards when they were young, climbed out of the eggshell and soared from a small one to a huge lizard man.
