The steam cart was still traveling in the sea of sand, and now Lucius and the others had penetrated deep into the sea of sand, crossed the area where the first ancient tree of life was, and continued to march towards the imperial capital of the King of Hearts' empire.

However, Lucius and the others did not rush into the area of the imperial capital, but first went to find the remaining ancient trees of life.

Reimer and Shabaja didn't care about finding the remaining Ancient Tree of Life, and when they saw the seed of the Ancient Tree, they had already lost their former vitality, and the two of them were disappointed and no longer cared about the Ancient Tree of Life, feeling that the twelve Ancient Trees of Life had already died.

It's just that Lucius seems to be very interested in the Ancient Tree of Life, in his words, in order to fulfill the old Ancient Tree's last wish, and by the way, explore the situation in other parts of the Sand Sea.

Along the way, he didn't see any life, all he saw was the violent wind and sand, the yellow sand was overwhelming, and the ancient cities had been buried by the yellow sand, but what made Lucius feel strange was that the towns he passed through after going deep into the sand sea did not encounter sand soldiers.

Stopping at an empty town, Lucius stepped out of the carriage, looked at the dead town, and asked with some puzzlement, "Why? Why are there no sand soldiers in these towns?"

Seeing Lucius ask, Reimer stepped forward and explained, "It's very simple, because the people of these towns, when the curse came, all fled. ”

To Reimer's answer, Lucius shook his head and denied: "Impossible, if all the people in these towns have escaped, then why did Shabaja and I pass through that sentry post before, but there are sand soldiers inside?

Lucius's words stopped Reimer at once, and for a moment he didn't know how to answer.

Seeing Reimer silent, Lucius looked around and carefully examined the buildings in the town.

After a long time, Lucius spoke: "I have encountered many towns before, and there is no trace of a sand soldier. I'm going to take a closer look at this town. ”

As he spoke, Lucius walked alone towards the house not far away, which had already been eroded by the yellow sand.

Just like the houses seen in the sea of sand, the houses that have been eroded by the yellow sand have been turned into grains of sand.

From the outside, there is nothing wrong with it except that it is built with sand.

Lucius walked to the door of the house, and it was not difficult to see from the lines on the door that the door should have been made of wood.

Merely. Cursed by the gods, the wooden door is now a grain of sand.

Seeing Lucius standing in front of the door, as if intending to enter the house, Shabaja couldn't help but open his mouth to stop: "Don't go in, there may be a thicker curse inside, and you may be corrupted by the curse when you go in." ”

Hearing Shabaja remind Lucius, Reimer couldn't help but pout and muttered, "Eventful." ”

Although Lecius saved himself many times, Reimer still regarded Lucius as his great enemy.

Now Reimer wishes that Lucius was cursed, and it was better to be consumed by the curse. Turning into a sand soldier, he can use the treasure weapon to bring Lucius under his command.

Then he took over everything from Lucius and went to open the King of Hearts inheritance himself. It must be able to sweep the entire plane in one fell swoop.

Thinking of this, Reimer couldn't help but feel good, and couldn't help but start standing there and stealing fun.

Lecius glanced at it and saw that Reimer was stealing pleasure and didn't pay attention to it.

Instead, he said to Shabaja, "I don't care. Wait for me outside, I'll go in and see and I'll come back." ”

With that, Lucius pushed the door open. And the door, which had turned into yellow sand, was actually completely pushed open by Lucius.

When the door was pushed open, it was accompanied by the sound of the wooden door, which made everyone feel an indescribable weirdness.

Staring at the door, I saw Lucius stride into the room, and everyone outside was nervous.

Reimer was also feeling a little nervous at this time, even though he was expecting Lucius to be swallowed by the Sand Sea Curse.

But when he really saw Lucius walk into the house, Reimer was still faintly worried in his heart, worried that Lucius would anger the curse and cause a violent sandstorm that would affect them all.

The people outside waited for a long time, but they didn't see Lucius come out until it was getting dark.

In desperation, I could only camp in the town temporarily, and in the town with yellow sand under the night sky, the dancing flames would light up the cold town.

All the people in the carriage came down and sat around the campfire, but none of them spoke.

It seems that everyone is very worried about Lucius not coming out for a long time, and they are reluctant to speak.

At this time, Reimer was secretly happy in his heart, because he felt that Lucius had not returned for so long, and he was probably in trouble.

There was no sandstorm in the town, and it was clear that the trouble that Lucius was in would not affect the others.

This kind of result can be said to be the most happy to see Reimer, so he is indeed very happy in his heart now.

However, in the face of Caroline, Modès and Kiriel, as well as the mechanical corps led by Belletti, Oguferdin, and Mogupatine, after seeing the demon soldiers led by the brute, Reimer did not dare to show his joy in his heart, such a group of guys really want to do it, and Baal may not be able to deal with it.

Everyone was silent, each thinking about their thoughts, and the campfire was beating to bring warmth.

But the crowd was silent in front of the campfire, but it was unusually cold, as cold as the temperature in the sand sea at night.

After a long time, Beludi suddenly spoke: "Do we really have to wait like this? Maybe we should go in and have a look? Maybe Lecius is in some trouble and wait for us to go in?"

Everyone was a little surprised, and turned their heads to look at Belletti strangely, as a mechanical demon, Belletti has always been very calm.

It was a bit of a surprise to others to behave like this today.

And Mogupatin then spoke: "I'm afraid it's not a good choice for us to go in, Lucius once ordered us not to go in." ”

Qi Li'er whispered: "But, but he never came back, we, do we really wait like this?"

Caroline stood up and said, "You can't wait like this, if you don't go, I'll take a look." ”

With that, she lifted her axe and walked towards the door.

But before Caroline pushed the door open, she was stopped by Augustine: "Wait, don't be impulsive, okay?"

Caroline turned to look at Augustine, "Do you think I'm impulsive? We've been waiting all day, are we really going to waste it like this?"

Augustine sighed and said, "I think we'd better wait, at least until dawn." ”

At this time, Modex suddenly said, "I also think that we should at least wait until dawn." ”

Seeing that Caroline did not listen to the persuasion and was about to forcibly push the door in, Shabaja stood up and stopped: "Don't be impulsive, we should believe Lucius, he has always been very powerful, this time the situation may not be as difficult as we thought, let's wait until dawn." ”

Reimer also hurriedly echoed two sentences: "Yes, yes, wait until dawn, at least there is something at dawn, it is easier to deal with." ”

Seeing that everyone said this, even Belude and Gillier agreed, Caroline could only retreat to the campfire, throw the axe on the ground, and sit in front of the campfire without saying a word and sulk alone.

Everyone else sat down, and silence returned to around the campfire. (To be continued......)
