Chapter 297. Anomaly at the End of the Horizon (3rd Update)
"Your Lord."
Behind him, the mage's apprentice rode over.
They were even more exhausted from their weaker physique, and couldn't help but dissuade: "Let's rest first, the environment in this place is really cruel, we really can't continue to trek." β
"Then let's rest." Kant sighed lightly and waved his hand: "Anza temporary camp!" β
"Yes!"
The knights immediately replied in a deep voice.
These transcendent knights have a stronger physique than Kant, after all, they have been instilled with the power of the elements, and they belong to transcendent bodies, which can be said to be impossible to consider with ordinary people's common sense.
If they continue to walk, the mage apprentices will definitely not be able to hold on.
This is, after all, flesh and blood in the real world.
The temporary camp was soon set up, and tents were raised, bringing a rare shadow to the sand scorched by the scorching sun.
A shelter that allows them to rest after a long journey for several days.
Handfuls of sand were thrown out.
A sand pit half a metre small was dug inside the tent and covered with a thin linen blanket.
After digging out the sand layer on the surface, this sand pit can bring more pleasant coolness, at least after Kant lay down in it, the fatigue caused by the long journey suddenly dissipated, and after pouring himself two sips of fresh water, he couldn't help but squint his eyes, wanting to lie down in this sand pit and sleep well.
There was no way, they had been in the depths of the Narun Desert for many days, and after leaving the inn, they had barely rested, and their minds and bodies had already tensed, and they were about to reach their limit.
That's why the mage's apprentice proposes to take a break.
They are so tired.
Everyone actually wants to take a break in their hearts.
Even Kant had this idea.
But here, Kant still stood up with his hands propped up, and came outside, where the knights were setting up tents for their horses and feeding them fresh water, and they were considerate and caring for their work.
"Rest until dusk today."
Kant opened his mouth and announced.
At the same time, the knights commanded: "When you rest, cheer up, and arrange the open and dark sentinels!" β
"Understood!" The knights responded.
After the arrangement, Kant returned to his tent with confidence.
The knights can do just fine.
Groggy and sleeping.
After half a ring, the temperature became hot, and Kant woke up covered in sweat.
There was some noise outside.
"Dangdangdang."
It was the sound of a wooden spoon striking a wooden barrel.
It seems that lunch has been prepared, and the distribution of food has begun as usual.
"It's hot."
Kant leaned over and sat up in the bunker, reaching out and ripping off the linen burqa outside.
Although I was wearing thin clothes inside, I still felt hot after sleeping, and my whole body felt as if I had fallen into a sauna and steamed to make people unbearable.
Now he misses the cool rooms of Drehem Castle.
It's a pity that I haven't found the destination of the system task yet, so it's obviously impractical to go back like this.
Kant was not reconciled.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
γDing... Temporary Task Release]
[Temporary Mission: Last Wish]
γReward: 1 SpringΓ
[Description: You have found this spirit in the temple, originating from the remnants of antiquity thousands of years ago.] He told you his last wish, and you intend to go to the depths of the desert in the north to see it. After all, the sandstorm that appeared in the depths of the desert is now hanging over you. γ
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
That's the temporary task.
But Kant was still tired in his heart, and he went deep into the desert for several days, and he didn't know what the concept of the so-called deep desert was, and did he still want to enter the real devil's zone?
Kant smiled wryly.
According to the urine of the system, it is really possible.
Just like the temporary task of exploring the ancient passage, the final completion was only completed by entering the walls of the dungeon in the cave, and the terrifying abyss demon was also killed.
In this mission, I must have not run away from entering the Devil's Zone.
Luckily, he had a lot of supplies and supplies with him.
However, if there is still that kind of terrifying abyss demon in the devil zone, or even a demon army composed of abyss demons, it would be a bit troublesome to solve it with just 56 of them.
To be exact, there are 50 knights in charge of combat, 1 commander, and 5 casters who increase status buffs.
"It's a real headache."
Kant rubbed his temples.
This time it is just to explore the depths of the desert, and if you encounter an irresistible force, you will retreat directly.
At least these extraordinary knights and mage apprentices can't compete with too many enemies, but they can surround him and leave, there is absolutely no problem, even if they are surrounded, the big deal is to kill them bravely!
In order to protect Kant, the supreme lord, the knights dared to sacrifice and dedicate!
Just thinking about it.
The noisy sounds outside eased.
At the same time, footsteps came from outside the tent, and he spoke: "Your Excellency, lunch has been cooked, is it brought in for you, you can eat first?" β
"Well, bring it in." Kant nodded.
The tent was lifted, and the royal knight walked in with a wooden tray in one hand.
Grilled meat and toasted bread were placed on it, and a rich aroma was intoxicating, and after being placed in front of Kant, there was also a bowl of wheat porridge, with wild vegetables and dates, stewed to a thin scale.
"You don't have to prepare porridge for me separately in the future."
Kant looked at the slightly reddish wheat porridge in the wooden bowl and sighed softly: "Save water." β
"That's what you deserve." The royal knight comforted: "For us, my lord, you can get a certain amount of material security, and even if we suffer a little, it is nothing. β
His sense of class is deep.
Kant, as the supreme lord, should be rich, prosperous and rich.
Even in this kind of situation, it is necessary to consider the minimum pomp and circumstance, and to be worthy of Kant's identity, not only this royal knight, but everyone outside thinks so.
At least now there is plenty of food and water.
"I said cancel."
Kant waved his hand.
Carrying the tray, he instructed the royal knight, "We don't know how many roads lie ahead, we may enter the legendary devil's land, let's save some water if we can." β
"Yes." Seeing that Kant insisted, the royal knight had to nod.
Wave his hand to let him go.
Kant ate the food quickly, not exquisitely, and barely swallowed.
Standard barracks meals.
He's been like this for the last few days, and he's used to it.
After lunch, Kant walked out with a tray, and many knights were eating lunch in their respective tents, and when they saw Kant come out, they wanted to stand up and salute and say hello.
"No need to be polite." Kant shook his head.
This group of guys is good at everything, but they pay more attention to etiquette.
Putting down the tray in the place that served as the kitchen, Kant turned his head to look at the desert around him, which was still an endless yellow appearance, except for a little pale blue in the sky, even white clouds were rare.
Clouds are formed by water vapor, just with the terrifying temperature of the Naren Desert, if you want to form white clouds, it is estimated that it is very hanging, even if it is formed, it will be evaporated by the terrifying temperature in an instant, let alone rain, even if you want to appreciate the appearance of the clouds during the day, it is impossible.
Kant looked at the horizon to the north and couldn't help but squint slightly.
The red-hot temperature makes the entire horizon seem to shake, an effect caused by the evaporation of water from the earth's surface.
But he found something strange about it.
"Look ahead."
He took a few steps back, greeted the royal knight who was standing guard behind him, pointed to the direction of the horizon and asked, "It's the end of the horizon, you see it's there, is there something?" β
"What?" The royal knight was slightly stunned, and when he looked closely, he didn't find anything abnormal.
"Didn't you find out?" Kant frowned.
When he looked at the horizon, he always felt that there seemed to be something hidden in the shaking picture.
Just like in the dense grassland, there are cheetahs with hidden spots lurking inside, waiting for the prey to throw themselves into the net, as long as they enter the ambush range, it is a tragic fight.
"I feel... It's getting more and more wrong. β
Kant touched his chest.
There was a slight throbbing in the beating of his heart, and he couldn't help but take a deep breath: "It's better to be cautious." β
All staff rested.
When it's dusk, continue your journey.
Kant, however, gave an order to remain vigilant.
Especially getting closer to the depths of the Naren Desert, everyone is required to be careful and report any abnormal situation, even if it is a little wind and grass.
This is the Nalun Desert, the vast yellow sand, where does the wind come from, where does the grass come from!
You can't go wrong with caution.
After packing up all the tents and checking the supplies, you can still maintain water and food for 10 days, saving a little, even for 15 days, thanks to the increased weight carrying capacity of the extraordinary warhorse.
All hands move on.
Even the mage apprentices clenched the staff in their hands and looked around nervously on their pack horses.
As spellcasters, their spiritual power is extremely high, and the perception they bring also allows them to discover the abnormality in them, and they can't help but remind: "Lord Lord, the elemental power here... It's a bit confusing! β
"Yes, we also feel a burning sense of chaos here."
The knights spoke in the same vein.
Although they are not spellcasters, as extraordinary knights, they also have extraordinary perception.
Kant nodded and said in a deep voice, "Be careful." β
The entire force continued to move forward and began to march.
Dusk faded quickly.
A dark starry sky began to envelop the land.
The moonlight spreads the whole world like a soft light veil, bringing a white soft light.
In a matter of moments, the temperature in the desert plummeted.
All the staff changed into leather clothes.
Even the war horses under the crotch were covered with fur robes to keep warm.
The desert in front of you is an endless plain, and the speed of progress is slightly faster, and the movement can also add some warmth, especially the war horses under the crotch, and they also have the decadent appearance of being exposed to the sun during the day.
But Kant was more cautious.
Because right in front of you, on the horizon in the moonlight, there is a group of figures marching forward.
