“The sandstorm is coming from this way.

"Oh, it's just a sandstorm, how can a sandstorm affect me?" Huo Lei sat upright and looked around in confusion.

Watching the horizon in the distance swirling with touches of earthy yellow, the remaining sleepiness disappeared, and the color of the eyelids turned livid at an extremely fast speed.

"Why did the sand suddenly blow up a sandstorm? ?Didn't we get shattered by a spatial singularity before?"

Ji Bai knocked the iron head hard and poured the reserved acid juice he carried into his mouth.

My sense of taste and pain are normal, so it shouldn't be an hallucination.

‘Where are the cysts?’

"A cyst? Oh, here, here, here, but it seems like I lost something." The situation was so urgent that Huo Lei didn't have time to count how many cysts he had lost.

“It’s not the point, save your life first.

"It's not necessary." At this critical moment, Ke'er acted unusually calm.

"?Sister Ke'er, what do you mean? Do you have a way to disperse these sandstorms?"

"No." Ke'er shook his head. "It's not necessary."

"Hey, it's not necessary?" Huo Lei couldn't keep up with Spidey.

"We have entered the death zone of the sandstorm and there is no way to escape." Ke'er said with certainty based on visual inspection.

"Isn't it? The sandstorm is so slow. You can get rid of it with a little effort. Huo Lei obviously doesn't believe it.

"The sandstorm seems to be moving very slowly, but in fact it is just because it is far away from us.

"In a moment, this palm-sized sandstorm will probably become this high." Kerr gestured, measuring the distance from the ground to the sky.

“It’s better to try to escape than to sit around and wait for death.

The few people stopped procrastinating, Huo Lei carried his luggage, Ji Bai hugged Ke'er, and ran in the opposite direction of the sandstorm.

My footsteps stepped heavily on the scorching sand. There was no flag as a reference. Now I had no idea where I was in the desert.

No matter where you are, just run in the opposite direction.

"There seems to be something wrong with the sun." The scorching sun hanging in the sky now made Ji Bai feel a sense of disobedience.

"I'll think about this later. The tornado and sandstorm are getting closer and closer to our location!" Huo Lei gritted his teeth and looked back while running.

As Ke'er expected, the speed of the flesh and feet could not be compared to the sandstorm whirlpool.

The adsorption force of the huge cyclone swept up the sand grains on the ground like a devastating blow. This feeling became more obvious as the distance approached, as if there was an invisible big hand behind you pulling at your back collar, trying to drag you into annihilation. in a sandstorm.

As the distance kept getting closer, everyone realized that compared to the whirlpool, they were just three inconspicuous black dots.

The most despairing thing is that there are countless sandstorm whirlpools. There are no gaps at all in terms of airtightness. They swarm like a swarm of bees leaving the nest.

Feeling the terrible pressure approaching behind them, driven by the desire to survive, the two of them broke through the limit and ran wildly, but in the end they were unable to stop the madness.

"Lao Huo, take her with you.

"Ah? - Huo Lei, who was moving his legs and feet very fast in a panic, didn't understand what Ji Bai behind him wanted to say, but a Ke'er flew over.

As a human being, he could no longer run when his fuel was exhausted. If he handed Kerr over to the strong Huo Lei, he might still have some hope of survival. “Wow!

"What do you want to do? Come back quickly, are you crazy? You think you can stop the sandstorm?!" Huo Lei shouted from the front.

Ji Bai, who had his back turned to them, shook his head.

He couldn't run anymore.

His body was squeezed and hollowed out by the bloody runes, and he became a burden. All he could do was try not to drag others down.

Perhaps when it is time to face life and death, the anxiety, fear and hesitation disappear, leaving only a calm and decisive calm in the emotion.

One black and one silver, with two swords unsheathed, the armored man walked step by step towards the approaching sandstorm.

Before you get close, the turbulent cyclone is like a sharp scraper, and it will be cut into pieces if you are not careful.

At the end of my life, I will end it with the same bravery as before and the glory and sacrifice of others.

With little strength left to drive his body, he moved forward.

"Ji Bai, Mr. Ji Bai." The dizzy Ke'er shook her head and asked vaguely, as if she hadn't figured out the situation yet.

Huo Lei was silent, but did not stop running.

"Where is Mr. Ji Bai? Seeing that she was still silent for a while, Ke'er's pupils suddenly tightened.

"Let me ask you, where is Mr. Ji Bai? Uncle Huo Lei, please answer me, where has he been? ?" Ke'er anxiously beat Huo Lei on the head, but the other party remained silent, and the ominous premonition in his heart was growing. .

"I'm asking you! Where are the others? Where are they? Answer quickly and let me go!" Ke'er struggled.

"Stop making trouble, are you worthy of Ji Bai's sacrifice?"

"Sacrifice---let me down, let me down quickly!"

"My little girl, please don't do this. Hold on tight, the sandstorm is coming.

Snap. "

Eh?" Huo Lei suddenly felt his heavy shoulders loosen, and Kerr, who was being carried on his shoulders, disappeared inexplicably.

"Thank you for your hard work. Just take my place next." Running in

Ji Bai, who was directly in front, said expressionlessly.

"? ? ?" Huo Lei said hello with all his thoughts in mind. "Brother, who are you? Why are you wearing Ji Bai's armor? ?"

"You still have the intention to joke at this time, Lao Huo, you are so heartless." Ji Bai glanced at Huo Lei behind him.

"Praise Bragg! You survived?! What happened?"

"Just force it, even I don't know what happened." Ji Bai tightly held the glowing pendant in his hand.

Just when he was about to be shattered by the storm, at the critical moment, the necklace hanging in front of his chest glowed with light. Then Bai, who was ready for death, was teleported to the area near the storm in complete confusion.

This necklace changed the space around him. Although it did not fundamentally solve the problem, it at least saved his life.

Ji Bai couldn't help but want to go to the vampire who gave it to him.

"Ji Bai first" Lost and found, the young and well-developed tear glands could not stop the tears, Ke'er tightened in Ji Bai's arms and pulled the knight's robe to use as a tissue.

At the moment when he was approaching the eye of the storm, Ji Bai noticed something unusual, which was quite rewarding.

"Lao Huo, stop, we can't match the speed of the sandstorm."

"Stop and sit back and wait for death? Instead of doing this, it is better to die in the struggle. At least you have tried your best and died convinced." Huo Lei obviously disagreed with Ji Bai's suggestion.

"There's no need to die, there's no need for any of us to die." Ji Bai glanced at the sandstorm behind him that was chasing after him as if it had eyes.

"Have you ever heard of illusions?"

"Are you talking about illusion spells? I've heard of it, what's the matter? Do you doubt that the sandstorm behind our pìgǔ is fake? This kind of pressure is absolutely impossible!"

"I'm not saying that they are all fake. What I mean is that there may be some fake sandstorm whirlpools among them. 039

"Huh?" Lei didn't respond.

"It's a good idea to confuse the fake with the real." Ji Bai thought for a moment.

"You mean these sandstorms we encountered are man-made? ?" Huo Lei's face darkened instantly.

"Not only is it man-made, he also predicted that we would not discover the secret. Even if we discovered the secret, we would not dare to gamble with our lives.

Ji Bai told his guess.

"Then we still have a chance to turn defeat into victory?" Huo Lei was confused.

"Of course, it's not a big problem."

"Do you know which sandstorm is real and which is fake?

"have no idea.

"The feeling from heaven to earth, Huo Lei - instantly felt like he was speechless.

"But I'm 50% sure."

"It's like I didn't say anything." Huo Lei took over the banner of complaining invisibly.

"The only choice left to us is this. Success or failure depends on this." Ji Bai took a deep breath and stopped.

The sandstorm blowing in front of him hurt Huo Lei's cheek.

"It's just like joking." Huo Lei grinned and geared up. "But I like it. The most indispensable thing in life is the courage to take risks. Come on, let's try it!'

"Remember, after rushing in, you can only go straight or turn left, never right, do you understand?"

"Well, I understand!

"Um! What is this? Mr. Ji Bai, please take the thing off Ke'er's head. You can't see anything."

"Girl, it won't look good if your face is scratched by a sandstorm." Ji Bai touched Ke'er's head through the linen piece. "I have been waiting for Ji Bai's voice to gradually soothe Ke'er's restless mood.

Looking down, two black spots that overestimate their capabilities challenge the authority of the sandstorm without hesitation.

The wind and sand blurred his eyes, and the flying sand grains so close to him made Huo Lei's scalp numb. He felt that this was the most exciting moment in his life. However, he had no intention of turning back when he opened his bow. He decided to believe Ji Bai, so he had no choice but to endure it. Go up, even if what awaits you is the end of being shattered into pieces.

He took a deep breath and shouted the most heroic voice in his life: Magical girl is flying!

The moment we rushed into the sandstorm was so long.

So when Huo Lei couldn't help but open his eyes, he found that he was already inside a sandstorm.

"really!

"Don't be too hasty to be happy. Run quickly and don't stop." Ji Bai quickly turned to the sandstorm vortex directly in front of him, not daring to stop any longer.

Even if there are fake sandstorms, these sandstorms around are real, and your life will be lost if you don't pay attention.

"Come on, let the storm be more violent!" Huo Lei's eyes turned red, and he followed Ji Bai Yizuo back and forth among the sandstorms.

When the last fake sandstorm broke through, the scene was completely white, as if everything in the desert was annihilated and engulfed by thick pure white.

"Uh, are we alive?" Huo Lei scratched his head unclearly, and the muscles and bones all over his body seemed to be rusty.

Looking around, I was still in the endless desert, but now it was midnight, and the crescent moon hung in the sky.

"Escaped. After checking that Ke'er was not injured, Ji Bai took out his notepad and deleted the line "Never turn right" on it.

Just as I thought, the expedition team belonging to the mad explorer accidentally broke into the Lost Continent.

, and then the whole army was wiped out, and only the insane one escaped back.

Leaves, never turn right, look towards the light, these few hints have been used, the last remaining

The person on the stool.

The Argonian doctor once said that the way he stood on the stool scared the mad explorer, so this so-called man standing on the stool was the culprit.

Gaze at the full moon hanging under the night sky.

It was already midnight, and it felt like the experience lasted less than two hours.

f light

Then, Ji Bai discovered something strange.

He remembered very clearly that when he came out of the spatial singularity that triggered the stone vein formation, the sky was clearly a crescent that looked like a sharp hook.

The full moon will not appear during this season, so their current location is not on the main plane.

"Ji Bai, what's wrong with you? You've discovered something new.

"No, it's okay." Ji Bai shook his head. "Lao Huo, set up the tent and rest early.'

"Put the good bag on me. Wait a moment and I'll bring the tent in the bag.

Looking at Huo Lei's busy figure, Ji Bai remained silent.

This night, the three of them seemed to be silent.

Ji Bai seemed to have entered sleep early, and there was no sound in the tent.

The night wind blew through the sand, and a black shadow slowly sneaked into it.

Seeing that the tent flap was not closed, he grinned evilly.

He quietly walked into the tent, stabbed the bulging sleeping bag hard with the gleaming sharp knife in his hand.

The dagger successfully pierced the sleeping bag, and the shadow laughed in triumph, but then felt that something was wrong, frowned, and lifted the quilt.

Lying quietly inside - only the pillow was punctured, exposing the cotton wool.

"Whoosh!" The howling wind roared in its right ear, and the painful black shadow rolled awkwardly into the corner of the tent.

Outside the tent, an armored man holding the blade of a long sword behind his back walked in.

"Your acting skills need to be improved. If you pretend to be someone else and don't even imitate the most basic mantras, it will be easy to reveal your secret."

"This is the illusion space you created, right? Drag me in. The series of chain plans are really painstaking. Now it's time for me to see who you are."

Seeing that the matter was exposed, the black shadow came out of the tent with a sound like a ghost.

"Don't even think about running away." Ji Bai rushed out of the tent and chased after him.

Unknowingly, in a trance, I chased the black shadow and came to a crooked castle with a strange appearance.

The moment he rushed in, the thick tile door closed heavily as if it was being blown by the wind.

It was dark inside the castle, with candles burning with strange flames on both sides. A few short stone slabs could be seen scattered in the distance, like incense stands for sacrifices.

Ji Bai found that he suddenly couldn't control his steps, and his body moved forward uncontrollably.

Suddenly, the candle light flickered on and off, and a black shadow suddenly appeared behind him and patted his shoulder.

"I want to play a game with you.

Then there was a faint light from the fire, and Ji Bai could see clearly.

It was a strangely pale human-shaped body ( ). He stood on these stone platforms, holding his shoulders with both hands.
