Chapter 743: Sands Poisonous Scorpion(1/2)
.It was not too difficult to get out of the city gate. Robben took Nalan and flew out of the city gate easily, without letting the guards discover it at all, but the trouble came after leaving the city.
The vast desert is like a large soldering iron covered with a reflective iron plate, dazzling light everywhere and hot heat everywhere. Now without the transportation of the desert pterodactyl, walking has become a big and small trouble.
"Let's go, it's nothing to be discovered outside, they can't catch up with us."
Robben nodded to Nalan, and Nalan began to gather his mental power with Robben in a tacit understanding. After that, before the soldiers in the city had given up searching for spies who had broken in, two small green whirlwinds blew outside the city and quickly headed towards the distance.
"Arrowers shoot arrows there." The guards on the tower immediately discovered someone in the two green whirlwinds outside the city, and screamed with hissing. Almost at the same time, countless archers' crossbows stretched out from the top of the city, and arrows rushed towards the two green whirlwinds in a series. Unfortunately, when they shot to the whirlwinds, they were all bounced away.
When a group of officers rushed to the top of the city, the two whirlwinds had already crossed a sand dune and disappeared.
"Damn it, at this time, such a thing happened. Can you not let me die quietly?" The demon commander slapped the city brick with anger on his face.
"General, the direction they are going... seems to be there. We don't have to worry about them anymore." An officer next to the demon commander spoke in a low voice.
The commander of the demon clan looked at the direction where Robben and Nalan left, and sighed long: "That's right, don't worry about them anymore. Maybe they will flee back in a hurry in a day or two. Then we will deal with them again. Now... we will evacuate the military and civilians now."
"Oh, by the way, where did that boy Dex run?" The demon commander asked casually as he walked down the city.
"General, that boy... seems to have indeed gone to investigate. When he left, he only brought dry food for five days and thought about it all the way there."
The demon commander nodded, and a big smile appeared on his face: "Haha... I'll be promoted to him when he comes back."
The officers around them all forced a smile. Everyone knew that the young officer who ran out recklessly would probably not come back...
In the vast desert, Robben and Nalan were moving forward rapidly.
"Oh master, it's so hot..."
The green wind was wrapped in his body. Nalan was flying at a height of about five or six meters on the ground, while whispering: "In such weather, you have to use magic to fly quickly. Oh, master, I'm going to die."
"If you die, your master will leave you." Robben spoke helplessly.
"Ah~~No...Master, don't leave Nalan."
"Then fly quickly. That boy's pterodactyl speed is obviously very fast."
"Ah~~ but it's so hot"
"………………Forget it, I'll go to you and block some strong light for you. Don't complain anymore."
"Well... forget it..."
The two of them said nothing nutritious and flew forward quickly. Dex, who had stepped out of the city earlier, was obviously moving very fast. Following the instructions of the gem light, they finally caught up with him for nearly half a day.
Just after a sand dune, Nalan's eyes suddenly shone with light: "Master, look, he is carrying three pterosaurs."
Robben also saw that the young officer seemed to be pursuing the maximum speed of travel, and took three winged dragons to take turns to ride. He is now riding behind one, and the other two are leading, moving forward quickly.
"Now we have a Wingdraft Rider, so we don't have to consume magic in such weather."
Robben nodded, with a look of thought on his face: "We must figure out the situation of this officer, and at the same time... we cannot let him die. If he dies, it will be meaningless for us to find out his situation, but... how can we talk to him now?"
"We are very hot. Whether there are mounts or not is a big reason. Master, let's go there quickly." Robben was thinking, and Nalan couldn't wait to rush out.
"Naran Wait" Robben was already late. Nalan dragged a green shadow and had already caught up with the young officer in front of him.
"This...the mental power is quite high again, and it's so fast..."
Dex's heart is now filled with a certain sacred and tragic emotion. He himself understands that he may have been to die this time. Perhaps before he reached his destination, he and these three pterosaurs became a delicious meal, but... as a soldier's dignity, as a demon warrior, the glory of him does not allow him to escape, nor does he allow him to retreat.
Dex felt nervous, but... he told himself with certainty that he was not afraid.
With this energy in his heart, Dex was concentrating on observing the situation ahead and responding at any time, but suddenly he heard the pterosaur behind him making a loud noise. At the same time, the pterosaur sitting down paused slightly and slowed down slightly.
Dex, in shock, suddenly turned around, but was stunned for a moment.
On the pterodactyl behind her, there was an extra witch with a beautiful and graceful figure. Now, the witch was frowning and fighting with the big white cloak in her hand. It seemed that she wanted to cover herself up, but the repeated buttons and strings on the cloak made her very annoyed.
Seeing himself looking over, the witch glanced at him, smiled at him apologetically, and then frowned and fought with his cloak.
This..., the muscles on Dex's face kept twitching. What's going on? Could it be that... Before I was about to die, Lord Demon rewarded himself for his loyalty and courage, and then a great beauty fell from the sky?
This... Dex looked at Nalan's charming and uncensored face, with annoyed expression without any pretentiousness, and the devilish figure that made men think of it, and he couldn't help but lose his mind. Could it be... it was really the beauty that the Demon God gave him? Otherwise, how could a witch suddenly appear on his pterosaur in this desolate desert?
Dex was thinking, and suddenly another black shadow fell down. Dex was shocked again. When he saw the situation clearly, his face couldn't help but sweat. Why is this... why is this man this time? Although he looks very handsome, he...
"Ah, I'm so troublesome." Nalan gave up completely, rolled his cloak into a ball in his hand, stuffed it into his ring, jumped directly to Robben's pterosaur, and got into Robben's robe with a waist.
Feeling Nalan tangled like an octopus again, Robben sighed: "Be quieter, go to bed quickly when you are tired, don't do strange things, remember?"
Nalan poked his head out of his robe and smiled: "I know, my master." As he said that, he pecked Robben's cheek, he shrank back with satisfaction, and no longer moved.
"Ah...ah...you, you..." Dex couldn't help but widen his eyes. Why does this situation seem to be a little different from what he thought?
"Who are you?" After a long time of fright, Dex finally reacted, and asked Robben with anger on his face. In the dark, Dex felt that his pure heart was teased...
Robben was a little surprised. This guy's reaction was a bit strange. Although he would definitely not welcome him, it seemed as if he had something angered him. As for looking at him so angry?
Of course, I'm afraid Robben won't expect to know the reason in his life.
"Ah...ahhaha, it's a coincidence to meet you here." Robben suddenly remembered that before he had thought of any excuses, Nalan had already rushed up.
"Coincidentally..." A few veins jumped on Dex's forehead: "Our officer is about to carry out an important task now. Now report your name and origin, why has it appeared here? Otherwise, I will arrest you immediately and go to prison."
"Ah..." Robben scratched his head, looking quite embarrassed, "This... the original officer, I am so disrespectful, but when it comes to my origin and why I appear here, you may not believe it."
"Say..." Dex's face turned dark when he looked at Robben's smile.
The witch actually got into his robe just now. Why did she get in? What did she do when she gets in? In such a hot weather, isn't it hot for the two of them to squeeze into that robe? Dex stared at the big robe on Luo himself.
Robben was secretly surprised that this was not... there was something wrong with his spirit, and he was a little confused no matter how he looked at him.
Despite his strangeness, Robben tried to make his face look very serious, and then said, "I am just a traveler, traveling around the demon world. I heard that the scenery here is unique, so I came here. But I didn't expect that the environment was even worse than I thought, and the city was also turbulent, so we arrived at a nearby city. As a result, the city had closed its gates and said that there were spies and assassins. We were outsiders and didn't let us enter the city at all. We had to continue walking and met you here."
Dex looked up and down with a cautious face, suddenly frowned and said sternly: "You have nothing to lie, how can you move forward alone in this desert? It will take ten days to get here from the edge of the desert to get here at the fastest, let alone you are outsiders. For such a long time, you don't even have pterodactyls. How can you pass through the desert to get here?"
Robben smiled and skillfully took the reins of the pterosaur: "There is nothing impossible. Do you think we are here alive? This is possible, right? Moreover, we used to have this kind of desert pterosaur before, but we bought it at a high price outside the desert. However, when we arrived near the city, some situations occurred, and the pterosaurs were lost. We originally wanted to buy it in the city, but... it was not successful."
Seeing that Robben was unfamiliar with the technique of holding the pterosaur, he was not completely unaware of it. It was indeed because he had studied it for a while, Dex was angry for no reason.
"Hmph, okay, I don't want to pursue you, but now you leave immediately and don't appear in front of me again. I have an urgent task."
Robben smiled bitterly: "This... I'm so sorry, our pterodactyl is lost and we can't get into the city. If you walk in the desert like this, you will die soon. Can you help us?"
"Help you guys" Dex screamed strangely, "Didn't I say I have an emergency mission?"
Robben understood and smiled: "I heard this, so I naturally didn't dare to disturb you to perform the mission. However, can you share two pterosaurs with two pterosaurs? I am willing to buy them at a high price. This pterosaur has a long endurance. I think it's enough for you to have one. These two are unnecessary. Not only can they be sold at a good price, but they can also save our lives..."
"Nonsense" Dex immediately widened his eyes and shouted with his thick neck, "Is this the army's pterosaur that you can buy just by saying you can buy? Get out of here now, don't show up in front of me again, otherwise I will arrest you immediately."
Sure enough, he couldn't sell it, Robben smiled secretly. However, he showed a hint of embarrassment and helpless smile on his face: "This... don't be angry first, we have something to discuss."
"If you don't want to discuss your nonsense to me, you are hindering the officer from performing tasks. I have the right to take any measures against you," Dex yelled.
"It's so noisy..." With a little annoyance, Nalan calmly looked and poked her head out again.
At first sight, Dex was stunned. His beautiful face was not as disguised as other witches... Although he seemed very dissatisfied with him now, Dex felt that he was suddenly grabbed by something.
"You...you...you call..." Dex stuttered a little.
Rodex's expression was full of strange face. When he thought about it carefully, he suddenly realized something and quickly reached out to Nalan's head like a hand and faced Nalan's head towards Dex.
"Ah Nalan, you haven't introduced you yet. This person is...yes..." Robben couldn't help but feel embarrassed. He didn't know what the officer was called.
"You... your name is Nalan" Dex felt a sense of joy.
Nalan couldn't help but frown. The warmth and noisy made her feel very bad: "Who are you? Don't call my name casually, it feels so disgusting..."
Ah, Lord Demon God, the witch's angry expression was so charming. Dex felt his whole body numb and slight.
"I...my Dex is a second-class garrison officer in the Desert City, responsible for logistics..."
"If you make a noise, I'll kill you." Before Dex could finish his words, Nalan had already said a fiercely, then retracted her head, leaving Dex with a embarrassed and sad face.
"Ah...haha, I'm so sorry. Nalan is not very adaptable to the climate of this desert. She is not in a good mood recently. Don't mind too much." Robben hurriedly came up and called haha.
"What a nice view……"
"Hmm?" Robben didn't find out clearly, "What did you say?"
Dex was stunned. Seeing Robben looking at him strangely, he quickly coughed and sorted out his emotions: "Well... are you... travelers?"
Seeing that Dex's attitude eased instantly, Robben was secretly grateful and quickly smiled and said, "Yes, I have been traveling everywhere, and I didn't expect to encounter such a thing."
"Well... then, this witch... is yours?" Despite trying his best to control, Dex's last few words still brought out the anger in his heart.
"This...I...is her father." Robben's heart flashed and this sentence blurted out.
"Father?" Dex was greatly surprised.
"Well~~Master, you still like this title..." Nalan's confused voice came from the white robe. It seemed that she was on the verge of falling asleep.
After hearing this, Dex immediately stared at Robben with suspicion.
"This... you also see that my daughter is pretty and charming. Many people pay attention to her, but I am the only one who is left with me to depend on each other, so I asked her to call me the master in front of outsiders, which would save a lot of trouble. When I find a reliable person in the future, I will let her get married."
Dex stared at Robben with his eyes, stared for a long time, suddenly his brow raised and his face was filled with joy: "So that's how it is."
"Yes, yes," Robben nodded quickly.
Dex's mood improved again, but his attention was slightly changed, but he immediately remembered his own affairs, and his brows immediately frowned: "If it were normal, I would, and I had the responsibility to help you, but... I am really powerless now that I have urgent official duties, you..."
Looking at Robben and looking at Robben's wide white robe, Dex hesitated. It is impossible to walk on this desert by himself. The high temperature will quickly lose physical strength. Whether it is the use of fighting spirit or magic, it will consume more physical strength. Without the winged dragon, it is difficult to travel long distances in the desert. Before leaving the city, the city was indeed catching spies and assassins. It is also the actual situation that these two people said that the city gate was closed. Now if they left, they would have no way to survive in the desert.
And... even if they were given pterosaurs, they might not be able to survive. The pterosaurs were not smart and could only remember one target position. The three pterosaurs he brought out this time were all from the memory desert city. Experienced desert people could tell their own directions and go out, but such a traveler would never be able to do it.
"Although it's a bit sad to say it, I have to tell you that even if you give it to you, you will not get out of this desert. These pterodactyls do not know the way out. Your only choice now is to go back to the desert city and ask the guards to open the door. There is no other way."
Seeing that Dex suddenly became serious and spoke sincerely, Robben felt a little sad, but there was nothing he could do. He was just trying to save his life.
Robben said: "The soldiers on the city don't listen to us at all. We will shoot arrows when we get close. If we go back, we will probably die faster."
Dex scratched his head and felt annoyed. What are hesitating about? He has important tasks. How can he hesitate here? What does the life and death of these two people have to do with him? He may save all the lives of the desert city, but he is wasting time here.
