The title of the book had the words' sunbathing ', but the sun in the Kentia Desert was not so gentle that one could enjoy it. It was a harsh environment, and surviving there was a great challenge in itself.
For thousands of years, humans have created countless countries in the Kentia Desert, creating a prosperous and powerful scene. Today, there are still human countries on the yellow sand, but they are no longer as prosperous as they used to be.
Humans are very adaptable creatures, but in the world of hunters, there are many creatures more adaptable than humans.
The oases formed by the local river are becoming fewer and fewer, and the living environment is becoming more and more difficult.
However, there is a group of dangerous creatures that can still adapt, and while the human base is gradually decreasing, their number is gradually increasing.
The world is so big, and there are many places to go, but it is difficult to move from one's homeland, and people who have lived in the Kentia Desert for generations have never thought of leaving.
Today, the Kentia Desert, as the largest desert in the world, is one of the most unsuitable places for living creatures in the world, and also the desert with the most population and countries.
The yellow sand spread for thousands of miles, and the dark red rocky mountain stood alone on the yellow sand. When the wind rose, the yellow sand danced in the sky.
A armored bull ran on the yellow sand, rolling up a long sand curtain.
The armored bull is a desert land creature with great endurance and resistance to thirst, heat, and cold.
It is very different from ordinary bulls. It has five stomachs in its body, four of which can be used to store a lot of water. There are no sharp horns on its head, but from the forehead to the back of the neck, it is covered with a thick layer of hard skin, like armor, hence its name.
The armored bull is domesticated by the people living in the Kentia Desert and is an indispensable companion for walking in the desert.
Law and his group sat on the sand sled pulled by the armored bull, heading toward the vast and endless front.
They had been in the desert for three days. So far, they had seen scorpions the size of three-story houses, sandworms up to ten meters long, walking cacti, and sandstorms that covered the sky. However, they had yet to see any signs of human habitation.
"Lin Nie, how long until we reach the Elba Oasis?"
Luo Qi sat on the broad back of the armored bull. He first glanced at the listless Bohara lying on the sand sled, then looked at Lin Nie who was resting with his eyes closed.
Hearing Law's words, Lin Nie's eyes opened a little and said, "If nothing unexpected happens, they will arrive in the evening the day after tomorrow."
Luo nodded when he heard this and looked ahead.
There was a wooden half cover on the sand sleigh, which he had modified with the Hand of God before he set off. It could more or less block the scorching sun, but it could not insulate the temperature.
The water they brought with them before setting off was almost empty. This was also the reason why Bohara was so listless. As for Lin Nie, he was getting on in years, so his body must be suffering as well. It was just that he didn't show it like Bohara.
"Two days?"
Law looked at the dunes and scattered rocky mountains in the distance. With the existing water, it was absolutely impossible to support the day after tomorrow.
There is one thing that Law knows very well, that is, it is impossible to encounter any oasis on the way to Elba Oasis.
Today, there are only three large oases left in the Kentia Desert and a small oasis in the Red Rock Canyon.
Above the three large oases, there are three countries, and Elba Oasis is one of them. As for the small oasis in the Red Rock Canyon, it is occupied by cruel and cold-blooded desert bandits.
Oases are the source of life for the desert, and the Kentia Desert is the largest desert in the world, but there are only four oases, which is a cruel reality.
In other words, before reaching Elba Oasis, Law will have no oasis to replenish their water supply.
Generally speaking, a small team of three like Law should take at least two armored bulls with them when they travel. If they only take one, the resources will not be enough to support them to the end.
It turns out that the resources carried by one armored bull are not enough for them, but the reason why they only take one armored bull is Lin Nie's request, maybe to increase the difficulty.
"It would be great if we can find a dancing cactus. If not, any creature will do."
Law thought silently, picked up the leather water bag hanging from his waist and threw it at Bohara.
The slightly flat water bag fell on Bohara's stomach, bounced a few times, and shook out a pleasant sound of water.
Bohara opened his eyes suddenly, reached out and grabbed the water bag, pulled out the stopper like lightning, and drank the remaining water in the water bag at once, and then let out a satisfied sigh.
"Resurrected!"
Bohara straightened his upper body slightly and suddenly came to his senses.
"You can't touch Lin Nie's water. That bag is the last water left." Luo Hui glanced at Bohara who was powerless.
"After drinking the water you gave me, I think I can last for at least three hours!" Bohara said seriously.
Law smiled and said, "That's the best."
An hour later, Bohara was lying on the ground.
What happened to the three hours?
Law rubbed his forehead and always paid attention to his surroundings. Once a creature appeared in his field of vision, he would jump out of the car to capture it. If his luck was too bad, it would be dangerous.
Looking back at Lin Nie who had been resting with her eyes closed, he always felt that she didn't seem to be worried at all. If the water source was cut off in this environment, even the strongest Telekinesis user couldn't hold on.
Time passed, half an hour later, Law's body began to lack water.
It was now 2: 30 in the afternoon, four hours before the sun went down.
"We're in trouble."
Law frowned slightly. The remaining water in the car was half a bag of water in Lin Nie's hand, and it was also the last source of water that the two of them could not reach.
According to Lin Nie's book, the best way to replenish water in the Kentia Desert was to find a dancing cactus. However, they were too unlucky. Other than encountering one not long after they set off, they had yet to encounter a second one.
At this moment, a cloud of dust rose in front of them.
Law looked at the place where the cloud of dust rose, and there was a flash of joy in his eyes. It was the cloud of dust raised by the armored bull when it ran.
"Finally, I met someone."
After a while, the cloud of dust was getting closer and closer, and Law saw the people coming.
There were a total of five armored bulls, and each of them had a person sitting on their back. Every one of them was wrapped in yellow headgear, and they had a mouthful of black beards. Their skin was dark, and they held a two-meter-long Zhanmadao in their hands.
Law touched the back of the armored bull's neck and made it slow down and stop.
The five armored bulls coming from the front did not slow down at all. They were running side by side and were aggressive.
When the distance between the two sides was less than 300 meters, the five people sitting on the armored bulls took out a stone crossbow and shot five crossbow bolts toward Law's position.
The sound of breaking air was heard and they attacked without saying hello.
Law's eyes flashed with a chill. He drove his Telekinesis and easily stopped five crossbow bolts with good accuracy. He saw that the arrowheads made of stone were coated with venom.
This discovery made Law's eyes even colder.
