After the third lock was successfully unlocked, whether Sapphire could survive or not depended on itself.
Originally, Shao Xuan thought he could get the result in a short time. However, after the third lock was unlocked, Sapphire seemed to be asleep. It did not respond to the outside world and was in a state similar to dormancy.
Shao Xuan was not at ease and planned to wait, but he had already heard the movements of the Jinjiawei.
Shao Xuan admired the persistence of the Jinjiawei who were chasing after them.
This was already the tenth day. In addition to looking for food and a short rest, the Jinjiawei spent the rest of their time chasing. Not only the Jinjiawei, but even the Jinjiawei's riding beasts that looked like camels and horses also had excellent endurance. They could withstand the cold and heat and could run for a long time. As for the people of Shaqi City and Skywheel City, who were originally following closely behind the Jinjiawei, they were getting further and further away.
Seeing that Sapphire still did not move, Shao Xuan could not carry it and run. After all, the people and beasts behind him were chasing after him, not the beetle. Shao Xuan lifted Sapphire and put it on a sand dune. The surrounding sand moved towards Sapphire and hid it.
The target of the Bi Luo was Shao Xuan. As for other things besides Shao Xuan, they did not care and ignored them all.
The team chased after Shao Xuan, bringing a burst of sand and dust. The Bi Luo made a sharp "beep" sound, flapping its wings and pointing its long nose at Shao Xuan.
When the dust dissipated, the place was restored to its original state. The fierce wind blew the sand on the sand dune to other places. Soon, there were no traces of human activity.
Shao Xuan felt that he had found a dead end for himself.
Escaping to the left was the jurisdiction of Shaqi City. Running to the right was the area of Skywheel City. Around here, he could already see some of the Skywheel pillars that were not growing very well.
Shao Xuan didn't know why he had run in this direction. When he came back to his senses, he realized that he had foolishly put himself in a dead end. He clearly knew that he shouldn't be careless when he was running for his life. The desert was so big that even if he led the Jinjiaos behind him to take a detour, he could still find an opportunity to run back and break through this situation. However, as soon as he started running, Shao Xuan felt that his consciousness was out of control, and he directly ran forward.
There were birds flying in the sky. They were not wild birds in the desert, but birds domesticated by the people of Skywheel City. There were also people on the back of the birds.
Although Skywheel City did not launch a fierce large-scale war with other cities and only had some small friction with Sand Qi City, it was also affected by the tense situation in the desert. Every day, there would be a patrol team going out to investigate. Now, Shao Xuan encountered a patrol team from Skywheel City.
On the right, there was a patrol team from Skywheel City lying in ambush. Behind him, there were Jinjiaos chasing after him. And in front of him, there was a cliff by the sea.
It was reasonable to say that normal people should run to the left at this time, but Shao Xuan ran straight forward. In the eyes of others, he was really like a madman who was courting death.
At this moment, Shao Xuan felt that his legs were not his own. He couldn't control them and rushed straight forward. His mind couldn't think of anything else until the moment he jumped. Shao Xuan suddenly woke up. Unfortunately, he had already jumped …
"F * ck!"
Falling from a high place, he fell into the blue sea and sank.
Shao Xuan felt as if someone was dragging him down, and he was falling.
Compared to the desert outside, the surrounding seawater was much colder. From the scorching desert to the sudden contact with seawater, and the deeper he sank, the lower the temperature became. The difference in temperature made Shao Xuan shiver uncontrollably. Originally, he planned to go upstream, but found that it had little effect.
The water around him was flowing.
This kind of water flow made Shao Xuan's scalp tingle. He was too clear about what this water flow meant. He held his breath and stopped the movements of his hands, not daring to move.
The huge figure came closer from afar. The light above the sea allowed Shao Xuan to see the stripes on its body, as well as the fangs exposed from its huge mouth. Shao Xuan couldn't even compare to the other side's teeth.
There were no claws, but the fin-like limbs did not reduce the power of this giant beast. Being stared at by those eyes, the timid soul probably flew away. The other side seemed to be uninterested in Shao Xuan, such a small person. It just swam around and did not leave.
What made Shao Xuan even more desperate was that after he stopped paddling, the speed of his descent became faster. Even if his ability to hold his breath was good, it was impossible to hold in the sea forever.
If this continues, he won't be able to leave alive.
At this time, outside the sea, on the cliff, the Golden Armor Guards who had chased after them gathered at the edge of the cliff. They looked at the endless blue sea and did not jump down. They were not stupid, so how could they follow them down to their deaths?
The riding beasts seemed to feel the pressure under the sea and uneasily stomped their hooves.
After appeasing the riding beasts, the leader of the Jinjiawei led everyone to separate and watch Shao Xuan. Once he appeared, they would shoot him!
Not far away, the people of Skywheel City were stunned by Shao Xuan's actions. Someone actually went straight to the cliff and jumped down from it! Was this looking for death, or was it looking for death?
The giant beast in the sea seemed to be aware of the many people on the cliff. It was very unhappy about this. It rushed out of the water and turned over. With a roar, the rocks on the cliff collapsed.
Even if the Jinjiawei were not afraid of death, they could not help but retreat a few steps with their riding beasts. The people of Skywheel City who were not far away were even more straightforward and directly retreated 100 meters. Living in this place, they knew very well what was below. It was an unshakable creature, far from the giant beasts in the desert.
The Jinjiawei, who had been ordered by the king to die, wandered on the edge of the cliff for two days. They did not see Shao Xuan again, so they inferred that Shao Xuan should have been swallowed by the giant beast in the sea. This was also an indirect completion of the king's order, right?
On the third day, the leader of the Jinjiawei waved his hand, "Go back!" The task was completed, so naturally it was time to go back.
As for the people of Skywheel City who were lying in ambush, they wanted to rob the equipment of the Jinjiawei. Unfortunately, in the end, they did not have the courage. They hesitated and saw that the Jinjiawei had gone away.
"Forget it, let's wait for another chance next time." A man from Skywheel City said. Their patrol team did not have enough people. The number of people was not much more than the Jinjiawei. If they really fought, they would definitely lose.
"You say, the man who jumped was eaten by the giant beast, or sank?" Someone asked.
"Who cares, it's just a madman."
The people of Skywheel City went back. This trip was peaceful, and the road back to the city was smooth. The Jinjiawei was not as lucky as the people of Skywheel City. Returning along the same road, they were blocked by a group of insects.
Looking around, a large number of black beetles covered the sand.
Boom!
On a sand dune, the yellow sand was lifted.
The blue carapace gradually revealed itself, and with the appearance of this beetle, the originally calm black tide of insects surged like waves.
In Snowfield City, because some people attacked the palace a while ago, the losses were heavy. The Snowfield King, who was rarely injured, sat there with a gloomy face. He did not have a good complexion. He was also calculating the time, wondering why the Jinjiawei sent out had not come back.
