Even though he has no grievances and may even be a future teammate, Lu Yuan still has some sense of integrity.
Of course, it remains to be seen whether they will become teammates...
Lu Yuan finally sent out an invitation: "Since you have nowhere to go, come with us to the Sky City."
The conch made a voice muttering to itself: [The evil being who wants to stew me sends a malicious invitation. But obviously, I have nowhere to go, and I can't even move.]
【If I refuse, he will definitely cook me, damn it.】
[Hmm...Dear Mr. Traveler...let me point you in the direction. It may be somewhere far, far away, so you have to be mentally prepared.]
Lu Yuan was ashamed. What level of mental patient was this?
He cleared his throat: "Teammate, what do you need now?"
[I want a little water to clean the conch shell...and other things, I want...to chat? How about it?]
【I have never left this conch, I want to witness a bigger world.】
"We don't have anything else here, and there are so many people chatting with us."
Lu Yuan got on the tricycle and drove slowly towards the distance.
Two tire marks emerged in the sand dunes, and they quickly disappeared under the breeze.
Only an emerald green vine quietly emerged from the conch mouth, looking at the vast trees in the distance.
Everything in the past has collapsed, but no memory has been preserved. I only know that this place seems to be my home.
The moon in the sky is still the same moon, but the world is no longer that world.
It's time to leave here too.
Finally, the big tree disappeared into the golden sand dunes.
…
…
I picked up a friend from the desert, but the team became even more unruly.
Lu Yuan is actually quite polite.
Because my new friend has a nice voice, soft and waxy, and very polite.
You can't bully a very polite living being - this is Lu Yuan's personal integrity!
But the other members of the team don't care about that much. What's wrong with bullying you?
The new guy seems to be a newborn baby who doesn't understand many concepts.
I am asking here and there every minute, absorbing knowledge like a sponge.
Lu Yuan finally understood what the request to "chat" meant. My eldest sister, can't you talk 24 hours a day?
Even the two lychees hanging on the old wolf's buttocks have to be asked what they are.
[Excuse me, what is that thing? Does it attract others to attack? 】
"Are you a male or a female?" the immortal giant turtle explained vulgarly.
【What...what do you mean?】
"It's usually a female that can give birth to a baby. Those who have that thing are all males! Mr. Turtle has one too!" The immortal giant turtle raised its tail.
Its organs actually grow inside the chrysanthemum, and they only come out when they reproduce.
"I've learned a lot." Lu Yuan said in surprise.
【Ahhhh...you are a rogue turtle!】
The evil and wild wolf twisted its body with a guilty conscience and walked up.
Now its strength is low and it has completely become a pet.
After practicing self-cultivation for so long, it regained its vitality. When it heard the turtle talking about this matter, it looked thoughtful.
It missed the female wolf a little bit.
"Ouch! Ouch!" That voice was desolate and desolate, full of resentment and the sigh of the times.
"You must be showing off!" The immortal giant turtle bit the old wolf's tail.
There was another burst of excitement.
…
After several days of communication, Lu Yuan gave his new friend a name - "Miss Conch".
She seems to be a female creature?
Well, that's good.
It can also be regarded as bringing a hint of yin and yang harmony to the team whose yang energy is too strong and suffers from mental illness.
"Miss Conch" has only one soul, she doesn't know her name, she doesn't know what her body should look like, she doesn't know anything about it, and she can't even bask in the sun.
She only hides among the small conch shells.
When he gets emotional, he starts to stutter and calls the other person "a fool" in a moral way.
When I'm not excited, I feel regretful about why I have to quarrel.
He is very talkative and keeps asking "why" all day long.
Even the old wolf was annoyed by her.
Finally, Lu Yuan stuffed her with a copy of "Advanced Mathematics" and finally made her shut up her curious baby-like mouth.
"Learn slowly! I, Old Lu, have been studying for so many years, and it's your turn to suffer." Lu Yuan looked at "Miss Conch" being abused by mathematics very darkly, and he began to feel happy in his heart.
"Ahem, my good brothers are all good teachers and have their own survival skills. It is very beneficial to learn from them."
"But sometimes you have to have independent thinking." Lu Yuan pointed to his brain, "Don't be infected with mental illness."
[Okay, Mr. Lu. I understand that you are the only normal person who is not mentally ill.]
Lu Yuan nodded with satisfaction, very satisfied with this flattery.
This lady could indeed tell which direction the [demon] was running from, and she could be regarded as pointing Lu Yuan in the relatively correct direction.
Tricycle riding hard in the golden desert!
…
…
As time passed, the vastness and harshness of the desert far exceeded psychological expectations.
The further away from the [demon], the fewer the number of insects.
It was safe, but the endless distance made people feel psychologically broken.
The huge storms that occur from time to time require Lu Yuan to use his ability in different dimensions to avoid them.
There is a flaw in the different space, it cannot be moved.
Once the sand dune floats over and coincides with the different space, it is equivalent to everyone being buried in the sand.
Today is another huge sandstorm. A group of people are completely unable to move and are hiding near the Tree of Life.
"Damn it, how many days has it been?" Lu Yuan pursed his dry lips.
"Today is the 612th day since we left the Lize Civilization, the 5832nd day of the Ninth Era." The old cat reported the number ruthlessly and accurately, "We have been in the desert for 12 months, stopping and going, and theoretically making progress
12,000 kilometers.”
The largest Saharan Desert on earth is 4,800 kilometers from east to west.
Nowadays, 12,000 kilometers is already a quarter of the circumference of the earth, but it has not yet reached the end of the desert.
Lu Yuan looked at the gray sky, feeling a sense of despair as he was challenging endless levels.
The most despairing thing in the world is that "God does not bleed."
Even if there is a 1% progress bar, that would be great!
This feeling of being neither up nor down is so uncomfortable.
[I said it was very far away. You can’t blame me...]
[Okay, gentlemen, do you need comfort so much? It's really disappointing. Since you show a depressed look, I will give you a little face and tell you that we will arrive at our destination soon. 】
[I guess it will take another day, it will be there tomorrow.]
【Let’s work together!】
Ms. Conch gradually adapted to her role: a flatterer!
As the lowest level of the world, her fighting ability is not as good as that of an old wolf. In this dark forest where the jungle is strong, she can only live by flattering others.
Even the old turtle reconciled with her.
Lu Yuan glanced at Conch expressionlessly, "You started saying last year that it would arrive tomorrow, but a fucking year later, you are still saying this?!"
Facts have proven that divine attributes are not the same as intelligence. Why is your 33-point god acting like a fool?
Well, 33 points of divine attributes are indeed useful.
In just one year, Ms. Conch taught herself advanced mathematics. This learning efficiency made the tough man Lu Yuan cry - how many years have I studied since elementary school? Am I that stupid?
A 33-point god, even the glyphs can be forcibly learned. No ability is required, just forced learning!
It's just that this talent is far inferior to Lu Yuan's.
She hasn't gotten started yet, but it has taken up a huge amount of her time and made her less talkative - this has become Lu Yuan's final point of pride. You can't do glyphs and you're not a badass?
"Tell the truth, how long will it take? Tell the truth, my conch sister!"
[One year... at this rate, at least one year... if it goes slower, it might take two years.] Miss Conch said weakly.
"Two more years?!" The immortal giant turtle bounced up and hit the tent, almost crying.
That damn sentimentality.
"How much water do you have left?" the old cat asked Xiang Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan didn't speak, but looked up to the sky and sighed, how many people can walk through this fucking desert?
He was a little less confident.
"Don't ask...I'll fill a pot of sand with you when the time comes to comfort you and let you stick to your destination."
The collapse artist turned around and wrote a few lines of text in the desert.
【We are all in the desert,
In the blink of an eye, we were buried in the sand.
I'm in the sand,
All my teammates are inside.]
Another bucket of water was consumed, and Lu Yuan was a little confused.
Rough wind and sand blew on his face.
"Master Turtle won't drink water! When you arrive at your destination, tell Master Turtle to wake up!" The immortal giant turtle suddenly made a decision and retracted its limbs and head into its shell.
A burst of gray light flashed, and the pattern on its back continued to change, turning into a stone.
The "big water consumer" suddenly fell into a dormant state.
If Lu Yuan and Lao Lang just drank water, they could last twice as long.
"Old brother... okay, let me take care of the rest of the journey..."
Lu Yuan was actually very grateful to this old brother.
Because there are a lot of bugs scattered in the desert, even if the tricycle has a hidden glyph, it is not safe, so most of the journey is done by turtle riding, while Lu Yuan rests in the carriage.
It has rough skin and thick flesh, so even if it is attacked suddenly and gets a bite, it won't be a big problem.
Now that they were finally away from those bugs, the immortal giant turtle could safely and boldly fall into hibernation.
This old brother can be described as another form of great wisdom and foolishness.
Just like that, due to the significant reduction in water consumption, Lu Yuan and others changed their strategy, from riding day and night to riding for 18 hours a day, with 6 hours of rest, and the speed accelerated again.
…
Time passed again, and 13 months passed again...
As the team has been on the road, Lu Yuan always has the illusion that the air humidity has increased a little? Is the temperature a little lower?
Chapter completed!
