Taklimakan …
This name made everyone who knew about it feel awkward.
Since the Cataclysm, places such as the Five Great Mountains and the Great Lakes were mostly occupied by powerful monsters. They were like the demons in the old myths. They could hear human language, and some of them were even able to speak human language. It was extremely magical.
In addition to the Great Lakes and the Great Lakes, a small number of places that were famous before the Cataclysm had become strange and dangerous places.
Dangerous places were called dangerous places because people knew very little about them.
Most of the characteristics of these areas were that strange natural environments were often born outside these areas, and there were also dangerous monsters inside. In a situation where the known territory had not been completely occupied, naturally, no one would be so bored as to provoke the dangerous existences inside.
"This is troublesome. We have no idea about the situation in the Taklimakan Desert. Even if we kill these lizards, if we can't cure them completely, it will only get more and more troublesome."
"Chang 'an Base City alone can't solve this problem …"
"Right, what's the result of the communication with the Lord of Dark Ember? Is it willing to be our ally?"
"Mayor, the Lord of Dark Ember rejected."
"I see." The mayor in a gray suit sighed.
"What is this monkey thinking … It helped us kill those lizards before, but now it's acting like it doesn't want to be in contact with us. Could it be … "
"Could it be what?"
"Could it be a tsundere?" Someone said in a serious tone.
“.....”
Some time ago, Gao Peng went to the Monster Trainer League branch in Yuzhou Base City and succeeded in obtaining the position of World Hunter.
The most important requirement for the World Hunter assessment was strength. Only with strength could one live longer in the wild. The second requirement was wilderness survival experience and knowledge of monster identification.
The last two requirements were no longer important to Gao Peng.
Because he was too strong, it was not important whether he had survival experience or not.
"We can't go to the Black Fog World for the time being. There is a monster above the King Tier on the other side of the Lusaka Spatial Rift. It's not far from the Desolate Labyrinth." Gao Peng paused. "If we encounter that monster whose strength is unknown, it will be dangerous."
"Monster." The Frosty Lion was stunned. "What monster?"
"I don't know. I don't have a picture. It was a big black snake that was awakened from its slumber …" Gao Peng shook his head. If there was a picture, he could directly check the attributes of the giant snake through the picture. However, whether it was an Emperor Tier or an Overlord Tier, it was not a creature that he could provoke at the moment. To be safe, it was better to slowly develop and wait until he could defeat that monster before going to the Black Fog World.
I'm definitely not a coward. I'm just mature and steady, and I can see the big picture.
"Waking up a sleeping monster?" The Frosty Lion was shocked. How could these people be so daring?
Everyone had a bad temper when they woke up, let alone a monster who was temperamental to begin with.
By the way, I'm also a moody Big Xiji ~
Ow ow, Gao Peng, try hitting my head again if you dare!
"But this monster is at most an Emperor-tier (Peak Emperor-tier). It's definitely not Overlord-tier." The Frosty Lion was very certain.
"How can you be so sure?" Gao Peng was a little surprised.
"Oh, how stupid. Which Overlord-tier monster would dare to sleep under the eyelids of another Overlord-tier monster at such a close distance? Are they tired of living?" The Frosty Lion sneered.
"Speak properly." Gao Peng gave it a knock on the head.
The Frosty Lion was embarrassed and annoyed. Let me tell you, I'm a moody Big Xiji. Don't hit my head so casually.
"Even if it's an Emperor-tier monster, it's not something that we can deal with now."
"Wait until I fully recover my strength and beat it up." The Frosty Lion sneered.
"Come on, advance to Overlord-tier after you recover your strength. Beat the entire Black Fog World and reach the peak of your lion life." Gao Peng encouraged it.
"Let's go, Gao Peng. Let's go and snatch all the treasures in the world. That way, I can break through faster." The Frosty Lion could not wait.
The eyes of Da Zi, who was lying on the side, lit up. Treasures? Ours?
During dinner in the villa that night, Grandpa said at the dining table, "Something happened in Chang 'an again."
Again … Chang 'an was really plagued with disasters.
"What happened again?" Gao Peng picked up a piece of meat from the table and heard the sound of gulping.
Da Zi lay at the foot of the table and looked up at Gao Peng. Its little tail was wagging happily like a little Shiba Inu.
Normal familiars were not allowed to enter the dining room, but Da Zi had special permission.
Gao Peng threw a piece of bone on the ground. Da Zi's hundreds of short legs jumped and pressed on the meat, chewing the bone with big mouthfuls.
"There's a monster invasion. It's coming out of the Taklamakan."
Taklamakan. Gao Peng had heard of it before. It was in the northwest region and not too far from Chang 'an.
After the Cataclysm, the desert was covered in sand all year round. The Dali Desert paled in comparison to the Taklamakan.
Of course, the Taklamakan was different from the Golden Sea Desert. The Taklamakan was a mobile desert. A mobile desert, as the name implied, was a desert that moved in the direction of the wind under the influence of directional winds.
In other words, it was a mobile desert.
The Taklamakan was the largest desert in the Huaxia region and the second largest mobile desert in the world.
"According to the latest news, the Taklamakan Desert is gradually approaching Chang 'an Base City. Based on the current speed, the desert will reach Chang' an Base City in about ten years and swallow the entire city."
Gao Peng put down his bowl and chopsticks. The people of Chang 'an were really … plagued by disasters.
Although ten years sounded like a long time, ten years was actually not that long. If they really couldn't stop the Taklamakan Desert from moving, Chang 'an Base City would have to prepare to move.
"Could this desert be alive?" Gao Peng muttered.
Having seen animated sculptures, mountain spirits, and coral reef monsters, Gao Peng's imagination was not small. He couldn't help but wonder if the Taklamakan Desert was a monster that had developed a consciousness.
If it really was a monster that had developed a consciousness, with such a large surface area …
Before the Cataclysm, the Taklamakan Desert was more than 1,000 kilometers long from east to west and 400 kilometers wide from north to south, with a total area of more than 330,000 square kilometers. After the Cataclysm, the area had become even larger. If such a huge desert turned into a monster, who knew how powerful and terrifying it would be?
"I'll go take a look tomorrow." Grandpa finished his dinner and wiped the corners of his mouth with a tissue.
"You don't have to go. I'll go." Gao Peng remembered that almost all sand monsters' weaknesses were ice monsters. He had the Frosty Lion, so he would have more ways to deal with it.
Ji Hanwu thought about it and was still a little worried. "Let's go together. We'll bring the White Dragon tomorrow. Don't bring too many familiars. We're just going to take a look."
He only had three familiars, but his grandson already had ten.
