When Lu Yuan saw the insect swarm, he felt cold and felt that there was no chance of victory.
He sprinted quickly, grabbed the old wolf and the old cat, touched the tree of life, and transferred his soul.
"Master Turtle, protect yourself, the enemy army is coming!"
"There is no shame in retreating! The wind is blowing!"
He roared this sentence and activated the alien space with the Tree of Life as the core.
This alien space is very large. After all, the Tree of Life is almost 10 meters tall. The soap bubble-like structure with a diameter of 10 meters is dozens of times larger than before and can hold more air.
Because of the super-fast recovery ability of the Tree of Life, this small alien space can last almost forever.
This large group of metal bugs rushed over at an alarming speed.
Although the immortal giant turtle was angry in his heart, he also knew that he could not be the opponent of so many insects, so he quickly shrank his shell and turned into a stone, entering a semi-dormant state.
"You actually called for help, Lord Turtle, spare your life."
The defensive power of this black stone is astonishing, and the glyphs on its surface are constantly flowing. Even strong acid cannot cause any damage.
Immediately afterwards, after these bugs arrived at their destination, they actually started fighting with each other!
The tent was trampled to pieces and the food was looted.
The water in Lao Lang's basin was naturally robbed.
Even the shit it just pooped and the urine in the urinal were eaten by some bug.
Seeing this scene, the old wolf licked his dry nose with his pink tongue, seeming a little embarrassed.
It howled sadly: "Ouch!"
Next, something even more unexpected happened. The insect whose water sac was exploded by Lu Yuan's shot became the target of public criticism.
All the insects launched ferocious attacks on it. Hundreds of extraordinary creatures with all kinds of weird abilities attacked it, including mental attacks, venom spitting, and acid attacks.
Straws were inserted into its body one by one.
It struggled like crazy, but it made no sense.
The body shrunk at a speed visible to the naked eye.
In just one minute, the injured Desert Spiral Worm turned into an empty shell, and even its brains were completely sucked dry.
The insect army studied the black stones for a while and found that there was nowhere to start, so they finally reluctantly left.
It was only then that Lu Yuan came to his senses and sighed with sadness: "This desert is so crazy. A level 3 extraordinary creature died like this?"
"It has only been more than 5,000 days, has the combat effectiveness already been inflated to this extent?"
He used his pioneer eyes to look at these strange bugs and memorize their information in his mind.
"Level 2", "Level 3", "Level 1"...
These monsters generally have very thick carapace. Except for the abdomen, joints and compound eyes, which are barely weak points, there are no flaws in other places. Even machine gun fire is useless.
The most important thing is that they all have extremely sharp mouthparts, which secrete a strong acid.
Ordinary armor is like paper in front of this mouthpart, it will break when poked.
And they move extremely fast. The body structure of these bugs is completely adapted to the desert, and they can literally fly on the sand.
Whether it is a human or a turtle, running on the sand is particularly difficult. Compared with insects, the moving speed is at two different levels.
"One or two are just so-so, but there are so many that I can't handle them..." Lu Yuan sighed.
A person's civilization is so magical.
Sometimes, even visions can be challenged alone!
But now that we encounter a large group of insects with high combat power, it feels quite tricky.
Fortunately, these bugs left just as quickly as they came. They fled in the blink of an eye and hid in every corner of the desert.
Lu Yuan analyzed: "They should come here for water. I just gave each person 10 liters of water for bathing and making popsicles."
"The water evaporated a little too much, and they smelled it, so they swarmed over."
"Fortunately, these guys have no intelligence and kill each other."
"If I encounter a large group, if I injure one with a bomb, the others will go hunting like crazy. Then I can just run away... Well, that's probably it."
The old cat nodded in agreement: "So the most important thing is water. You must be more careful in the future. The urine you pull out must be put into a gasoline can and then collected in a storage space."
Lu Yuan frowned and reluctantly agreed: "Okay."
Old cat: "There is also water in the stool, so don't poop randomly...it's best to use a storage space to collect it."
Lu Yuan felt that this method was so perverted.
The storage space is full of poop and pee. What's going on?
The old cat shook his head and continued: "The creatures here have evolved this ability. You have to be mentally prepared that the desert is big enough and dry enough."
"Moreover, a few hundred extraordinary beings, isn't the number a bit too much?"
"It's more than the total number of extraordinary beings we have observed before. How many are there at the third level?"
"33 Level 3 insects, 61 Level 2 insects, and 139 Level 1 insects." Lu Yuan replied, "In such a large desert, it is not ruled out that there are Level 4 or even Level 5 insects."
Theoretically, in more than five thousand days, the combat power will not expand to such an extent.
If the expansion continues at this rate, in ten thousand years, extraordinary beings will be able to defeat civilization.
Suddenly, Lu Yuan slapped his head, with an excited expression on his face.
"There must be some reason... for this phenomenon to occur."
"The biggest reason is the ruins!"
"The city in the sky must be in the desert!!"
He became more and more excited and laughed loudly.
Yes, the life forms in the ruins are far stronger than those in normal Pangea. They are remnants of the previous era.
Just like the ruins of the Meda civilization, there was a large piranha flower at the beginning, as well as extraordinary beings such as Scorpions, Poisonous Queen Bees, Giant Snakes, and Female Bears.
The civilization represented by Sky City is far stronger than the Meida civilization, and it is a matter of course that the surrounding creatures are stronger.
Now even the old cat was excited.
"The evidence is indeed strong."
"Comrade, your persistence is very reasonable."
However, a bigger trouble loomed before them: How could they find the City in the Sky in the vast desert, surrounded by a large number of insects?
No matter how well you hide your water resources, you will inevitably be attacked along the way.
These bugs are not friendly.
Lu Yuan can win a hundred times, a thousand times.
However, these bugs generally spray venom and acid, and they hide in the desert, making them difficult to detect.
As long as he is injured once, he will be in great trouble...especially for this guy Lao Lang, whose current combat power is somewhat lagging behind. If he is sprayed, he will be injured even if he is not dead.
How can we avoid risks?
This is a big question.
…
Half an hour later, when the outside world calmed down completely, Lu Yuan released the alien space.
First, I habitually checked the pile of insect shells to see if there was any garbage that could be picked up.
Unfortunately, after being corroded by acid, these shells are like newspapers, pitifully fragile and will shatter when touched. Obviously, they are of little value.
"Hmm...these two straws are okay?"
He said "Hey" again and carried the black stone that the turtle had turned into onto the tricycle.
Pushing the tricycle, I temporarily stayed away from this terrible desert.
Two hours later, the shell of the black stone peeled off piece by piece, and the immortal giant turtle resurrected, but its size shrank by a few centimeters.
The sentimental turtle recalled what he had just experienced, and the fierce turtle shed tears: "God damn bugs, suddenly attacked. It hurts to death, why is it always the turtle that gets hurt?!"
The old cat said indifferently: "If you cry again, a lot of water vapor will evaporate, and the insects will come and bite you again!"
The immortal giant turtle quickly wiped away the tears with his paws and licked them clean with his tongue.
In order to comfort this human shield, Lu Yuan gave it a hundred small pomegranates: "Master Gui is really unparalleled in battle. He opened the blood lock."
"If we get a few bites, a few lives will be lost."
The shiny, rosy little fruit attracted its attention.
Coupled with the fact that Lu Yuan spoke so nicely, the Immortal Giant Turtle quickly forgot about what happened just now.
"Brother, if it weren't for me, you would really die if you were bitten... Get a bottle quickly, I'll squeeze out the venom!"
The giant turtle groaned and howled: "It hurts, it hurts!"
There was a gaping wound on its neck, and turbid and viscous liquid continued to flow out, which was disgusting.
Lu Yuan immediately used a glass bottle to catch the liquid. It took him a long time to fill it with about a cup, which was also mixed with the old turtle's pus.
[A strong spiritual toxin: It has a unique dissolving ability, and can dissolve both metal and bone. (Inferior grade·natural wonder)]
"It's considered a good thing."
While they were noisy, everyone found a big rock on the wasteland and rested in the shade behind it.
Everyone looked very sad.
Nowadays, the biggest problem is not water, but...how to find the city in the sky under the siege of the insect army.
There can't be one mistake.
This fault tolerance rate is obviously still too low.
"I thought about it carefully, and the first method is to get a hot air balloon and fly into the sky. Most of those bugs can't fly, so they won't attack us."
He has a hot-air balloon donated by the Rize people and uses a generator to electrolyze water and produce hydrogen that can inflate the hot-air balloon.
"It can probably fly to a height of two thousand meters."
However, there are some minor problems with this plan.
On the one hand, the sandstorm in this damn place is a bit big, and there is no way to control the direction of the hot air balloon, so it can only drift in the wind.
On the other hand, the hydrogen in the hot air balloons will continue to lose, and their energy and water are quite limited. When the time comes, they will be unable to fly and fall into the desert, and a group of them will be besieged by insects again.
Lu Yuan said optimistically: "This plan also has advantages. Looking into the distance at a height of two thousand meters, the field of view will be very large. Maybe we can find it immediately?"
"It's inappropriate, it's really inappropriate."
The old cat shook his head: "Electrolyzing water requires a lot of fuel and a lot of water resources."
"You can't expect a sandstorm to knock you down the city in the sky. It's better to stay down to earth."
"Then the second option is mental shock." Lu Yuan drew a pattern on the sand, "My donkey head mask and spider shield both have the effect of mental shock."
"But how useful it will be is unknown."
The donkey head mask is damaged and incomplete. If it is repaired, it will have extraordinary power and will not be a problem in deterring these bugs.
He shook his head helplessly: "With my current technical level, there is really no way to fix it, even if I have inspiration, it will be difficult."
As for the spider shield, the spiders are only level one, and the monsters here are all level three.
Expecting spider eye patterns to scare all monsters is obviously a bit fanciful.
The old cat pondered for a moment: "If that doesn't work, why don't you take out that drop of [ghost's] blood to scare the insects?"
Lu Yuan grinned and gave a wry smile.
What if someone who doesn't open his eyes releases the [ghost's] blood, wouldn't it be over?
"The third way is to use the power of glyphs to hide yourself."
"The hidden glyph, there happens to be a corresponding tutorial in Daedalus' manual..."
"But I haven't even learned mathematics yet. Isn't it a little late to tinker with glyphs here?"
"How long do I need to study before I can learn the initial glyph?"
"It seems like you can only choose this method..."
Having said this, he looked at the blue sky with a shaken expression.
If you compare mathematics to a beautiful girl, you must turn into a licking dog and spend time and energy tirelessly.
And you have to have a little bit of talent to get a glimpse of the true face of the coldest girl in the universe.
Lu Yuan actually knows the truth of "it is better to start right away than to lament that the road is difficult", but he has not been a top student since he was a child. His academic performance is average and he has been hovering around the top 20 in the class. He is just an ordinary person.
student.
It is really painful for a person with mediocre talents to learn that damn mathematics knowledge!
Along the way, he actually tried to study seriously, but he was always distracted by various things.
He doesn't like to use his brain, especially mathematics. If he knows it, he knows it, and if he doesn't, he just doesn't know it. He can't use his hidden "insight", let alone cheat.
Otherwise, even if the answer is right in front of you, you will copy it wrong!
"I, the Demon God of Greed, can't I be more thirsty for knowledge?!" Lu Yuan beat his chest and tried to stimulate his greed.
"I'm greedy for knowledge!!"
"If you are dissatisfied with human beings, don't be a human being." The old cat said happily, "Become a big tree in the sky and castrate your desires. The old tree will take root and be more suitable for learning."
"Why do you look so happy?" Lu Yuan said bluntly, "Are you gloating?"
The old cat said: "You taught me that cats live just to torture others..."
The piranha took a big bite and swallowed up the slutty cat.
Lu Yuanyi corrected him righteously: "I can only torture you, but you cannot torture me."
