At the border between the Mediterranean Sea and the Sahara Desert, a man riding on the back of a Winged Beast was staring at the horizon of the desert. He seemed to be lost.
"Mr. David, didn't you hear what I just said?" asked a female Maga in her thirties beside the Winged Beast.
"Oh, what did you say?" David finally collected his thoughts.
"According to our sources, there's always a strange sandstorm at the edge of the Sahara Desert. According to some investigators, the sandstorm doesn't seem to be a natural phenomenon," said the Maga with glasses.
"What's the point of having such ambiguous information? There are too many strange things about the Sahara Desert. It's impossible to find the reason behind it. All we need to do now is to head there and save the people," said another male Maga with a white cloth hat on his head.
"To be honest, if Mr. David wasn't leading the team, we wouldn't have set foot in this desert maze. After all, Mr. David has once walked out of the desert maze!"
The man called Devon stood there quietly, still not saying a word.
As a matter of fact, he did not want to come to this place. He really did not want to!
…
"Look down, there seems to be a person." Someone in the team said, and everyone immediately looked down.
As they thought, they saw an unconscious person lying on the golden sand. Judging from the shape of the person, it was a woman.
Devon whispered to the winged beast he was riding. The winged beast folded its huge wings and slowly landed on the sand.
The bespectacled female mage walked up to the unconscious person, helped her up, and carefully observed her aura.
"She's still alive, she … I think she's Asian. Could she be a member of the China national team that was sent by the association to look for clues?" said Scarlett.
Scarlett fetched some water and fed it to the unconscious woman.
Nan Jue slowly regained consciousness after receiving the clean water.
Her first reaction was to look around her. However, her expression shifted when she realized she was no longer at the same spot.
It was obvious that Nan Jue was worried about Mo Fan.
She was supposed to signal them when she was outside the maze, yet she had fainted here. It meant they were completely lost in the desert.
"I have to go there!" Nan Jue rose to her feet and quickly ran forward. Unfortunately, her body was too weak. She could not even walk a few steps.
"Don't panic, tell us what happened. Why are you unconscious here?" asked Scarlett.
"Another monster, it's roaming around the desert maze. It attacked me … anyway, please bring me there. My friends are still inside, and I'm no match for the monster," pleaded Nan Jue.
"Don't worry, our Mentor David is a Super Mage. He's more familiar with the desert maze than anyone else. With him around, as long as your friend doesn't fall too deep into the maze, they will be fine," the man with the white headscarf said.
The Super Mage called Devon remained silent. It was easy to see the gloominess on his face, but the truth was, he was not that kind of person.

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation After Jiang Shaoxu cast the Advanced Summoning Spell, Roar of the Colossal Rhino, the Sandfear Foxes were intimidated. They began to back away, since they had already lost more than two hundred foxes.
The Poison Fire Scorpions were affected by Jiang Shaoxu's Psychic Spell, too. They retreated to the sand dune where they were supposed to be, facing off against the Sandfear Foxes that had yet to leave.
"What is this? Are they taking a break?" murmured Mo Fan when he saw the demon creatures on both sides had stopped fighting.
"Perhaps their commanders think it's meaningless to keep fighting like this."
The demon creatures on both sides had stopped fighting, yet they refused to leave. Deep roars continued to echo in the air, leaving Mo Fan and the others in an awkward situation.
"Weng ~ ~ Weng ~ ~ ~ Weng ~ ~ ~"
Just as he was at a loss for what to do, a hum that sounded like a guzheng suddenly sounded from outside the sand dune. He looked up and saw a magic signal that he had not seen for a long time rising in the sky, guiding him in a very clear direction. < p >
Zhao Manyan and Jiang Yu almost burst into tears when they saw the signal!
They were saved, they were saved, the Nan Jue had finally shown up!
"Let's go, let's go, the two species are going to fight again soon," yelled Jiang Shaoxu when he sensed the change in the atmosphere.
The five of them now had a clear direction. They no longer had to stay in the same spot. They would not intervene even if the two species were to fight fiercely.
The five of them ran as fast as they could, trying to leave the place as soon as possible. However, they only ran a few hundred meters when they noticed the sand around them moving rapidly. One Poison Fire Scorpion after another crawled out from the sand and surrounded them. There were quite a number of them.
Gray-black lightning flickered continuously as the Sandfear Foxes chased after them. It seemed like they were going all out!
"F * * k me, Jiang Shaoxu, are you sure the Psychic Spell you used was just to stop them from fighting? Why do I feel like they have agreed to take us out first?" screamed Zhao Manyan.
The Sandfear Foxes and the Poison Fire Scorpion had all chased after them. It was the last thing they wanted to see!
"I … I don't know why they are so united all of a sudden. Anyway, let's run," said Jiang Shaoxu.
Mofan brought up the rear. He first cast a Lightning Spell to paralyze the Sandfear Foxes that were chasing after them. He then activated the Dark Noble Mantle and moved stealthily among the demon creatures to catch up with the group that was already a distance away.
Luckily, he had improved his Fleeing Shadow to a higher level. Otherwise, he would not be able to run away so easily even though he was acting all high and mighty!
"We're almost there!"
"Back off!"
Mofan's eyes flickered. A force immediately gathered around him and struck four Sandfear Foxes that were lunging at them, knocking them flying.
"I think I saw Nan Jue!"
"Thank the Heavens, Mofan, stop fighting them. Let's go!" said Zhao Manyan.
The Sandfear Foxes and the Poison Fire Scorpion were trying to surround the group. If they could not see the end of the desert maze, they would be surrounded by the demon creatures. The group had suffered some minor injuries in the battle. They had to withdraw at once!
…
The color of the sand was pure gold, which indicated that they had walked out of the terrifying desert maze.
They saw Nan Jue, and a few Mages with Nan Jue. The Mages were initially waiting for Mofan and the others to arrive. To their surprise, two powerful demon creatures were following the group of young people. Their faces immediately turned pale!
Nanyu was startled, too. Why did they have to bring such a huge group of demon creatures with them, not to mention that they were all Warrior-level creatures!?
"What's going on? Didn't they say the demon creatures wouldn't leave their territories? Why are they still chasing after us even though we've left the desert maze!?"
"Run, run, quick!"
No one was willing to fight a meaningless battle. They all turned around and ran for their lives.
The Super Mage, Davin, immediately cast a Wind Spell. A dark blue gust of wind sprang up around them, like a Wind Raft that boosted everyone's speed. The Wind Raft allowed them to escape from the place without using any spells.
The Wind Boat protected the group. The Poison Fire Scorpion and the Sandfear Foxes finally stopped chasing after them when they saw the group running further away. The group let out a relieved sigh.
"What's going on? Why are you so restless in the maze? Not only did you provoke one demon creature, you even provoked two of them?" snapped Nan Jue.
"Do you think we want to? We've stayed in the middle of the conflict between the two demon creatures for so long just to stay in that spot. If you didn't give us the signal, we would have died in there," said Jiang Yu with a wronged look.
"You didn't leave the place?" asked Nan Jue in surprise.
"Yeah, we didn't dare to leave the place during the sandstorm or the war. Luckily, you didn't make us wait in vain."
When David heard their conversation, he, who had been silent all this time, said, "You made the only right choice. In the maze of the desert, the only correct location is the spot that hasn't been moved. Otherwise, you wouldn't have been able to see the signal from outside the maze. "
Everyone subconsciously looked at Jiang Shaoxu. Luckily, Jiang Shaoxu had been holding her ground all this time. They were relieved that they were still united after hearing the Super Mage's words. Otherwise, they would have no chance of surviving.
"Didn't you see anyone else?" asked Scarlett.
"I only saw the pieces of their tent. It's around five kilometers away from here. I didn't see anything else," said Mofan.
"I believe they should be nearby. We'll take care of the rest. You should rest here for the time being. Don't wander too far away. We might need your help," said Scarlett.
It was fine as long as they had some clues. It was like looking for a needle in a haystack if they did not have any clues in the desert. It would be a waste of time to rescue them.
"Let's hope they are the same as you, guarding the coordinates," said Davin.
"Speaking of which, you mentioned that you went through the sandstorm too?" asked Scarlett as she adjusted her glasses as a sudden thought crossed her mind.
"Yeah, a sandstorm happened out of nowhere …"
