“……………………”

Yiming stood on the sand dune, moved his eyes away from the wind and sand and corpses in the sky, and looked at the girl. The two nodded almost tacitly. At this moment, Lawrence, who had been hiding behind the pack beast, finally poked his head out. He stared at the two with panic and uneasy eyes. After swallowing a rude saliva, he asked in a sound that didn't sound too trembling.

"Who are you?"

In the next few days, the sand thieves did not attack them again. Whether they gave up because these people were too difficult to perform, or were following them like vengeful wolves, waiting for a better attack time is unknown. But the road is always there, and now it is the season of budding. If you don’t get faster, by the season of flame, the climate of the entire desert will become worse. By that time, it will be difficult to deal with.

During this period, Yiming had been learning the common word of the Empire from Lawrence, because according to Lawrence, this language is the most popular on this continent. As long as you learn it, at least in places where there are humans, communication will not be a problem.

Although he said so, Lawrence was still secretly shocked. Yiming's speed of learning language was beyond his expectations, and even made Lawrence feel a little scared. In just three days, Yiming almost completely mastered the common language of the Empire. This speed was simply not as fast as a human! Fortunately, in this way, he could communicate directly with Lawrence instead of through the "translation" of the girl. It was not until this time that the two sides finally began a formal communication and self-introduction.

"My name is Yiming... This is my companion, Meyalie Didviel Louise. As you can see, Mr. Merchant. We... can be regarded as two warriors. I really thank you for helping us who are speechless a few days ago to overcome the difficulties. Otherwise, Meyalie and I would not be able to get out of this desert at all."

Yiming's smile was gentle, but this did not dispel Lawrence's doubts.

"Where are you from? Why can't you even speak the common language of the Empire? This is so strange... and that Miss Mayalie..."

As he said that, Lawrence couldn't help but look at the girl leaning against the wall of the car, holding a small white umbrella in her hand. The umbrella was not a product of Lawrence, but a product formed by Mealley's white sword.

"This…maybe this question is not polite, but she doesn't seem to be able to speak?"

“……………………”

When facing Luo's question, Yi Ming hesitated for a moment. After communicating and contacting Luo's a few days ago, Yi Ming had already found it was obvious that he and Mayalie had come to a completely different place from the world he was in before. But even so, he could not lose his due vigilance. People with abnormal abilities like them had suffered in that world may not encounter the same thing in this world. But after all, this world is different from the world he lives in, not to mention that Luo Ruins is a well-informed businessman and looks kind-hearted. After all, in this world, he and Mayalie have no choice but to rely on to help.

Just take a gamble.

Thinking of this, Yi Ming's expression became much more serious. Lawrence, who noticed this, couldn't help but correct his expression and wait for his answer.

"It is true, Mr. Lawrence, Mayale... she...can't speak in nature, but she has a 'capacity' that can help her overcome this flaw."

"Is it related to the sound that sounds in my head?"

Lawrence is indeed an experienced businessman, and he suddenly thought of the key points.

"Yes."

Yi Ming nodded, as if he was considering how to accurately describe it to the businessman.

"Meali's ability is that she can fully understand the meaning of what people say, and can also send what she wants to say directly to the other person's mind. In fact, Meali, like me, has no idea about your empire common language, but her ability can help Meali directly 'understand' what you say without the help of language, and at the same time, it can also 'understand' what she wants to express and speak."

"Is this a magic that can detect thoughts?"

Lawrence couldn't help but subconsciously glance at Mealley, with some intention of staying away from her. If that was the case, then this girl would be terrible.

"magic……………"

But unexpectedly, Yi Ming repeated the word in confusion, as if he didn't quite understand it.

"Maybe......it's true, but please rest assured. This is not the so-called mind reading technique. Meyali's ability can only be limited to the language the other party wants to express to understand. If it is your inner thoughts, then Meyali cannot see through it."

"That's how..."

Lawrence seemed to breathe a sigh of relief on the surface, but he didn't believe what Yi Ming said in his heart. He glanced at Mealley and then quickly turned a few dirty and unremarkable content in his heart. If Mealley could really detect his inner thoughts, then the girl would definitely react now. But Mealley still had that gentle and polite smile, and there was no problem at all. So Lawrence really let go, he shrugged, and then spoke.

"No matter who you are, since you have protected me, I cannot help but express it. Let me do this... How about I hire two people as my guards? If you can protect me from this desert safely, then I am willing to give out fifty gold coins as a reward."

(You saved our lives, so we should protect you, Mr. Lawrence.)

"You can't say that, Miss Mayalie."

Lawrence showed a unique businessman smile at Mealee.

"I am a businessman. I believe in my own vision and money. It is true that I saved your life, but you saved my life two days ago, and everyone is equal. As a businessman, you cannot allow yourself to accept unequal rewards. If those vicious sand thieves attack again, you should still protect me. But in this way, I owe you a favor. So please accept my kindness. If your companions separated during the trip due to interests, it would be really a pity. Just treat it as giving me a little peace of mind, the old man, and you should also need money."

“……………………”

Hearing what Lawrence said, Mayalie and Iming looked at each other.

(What should I do? We do not have the currency of this world, but will there be any problems here? What I mean is that this person is so generous, what if he regrets after leaving the desert? And if that time comes, he betrays us......)

If you have nothing to do, are you either traitor or robber?

Yi Ming smiled bitterly. Why didn't he understand this truth? On the surface, the three of them were friends in the desert, but this does not mean that they are still the case after leaving the desert. He and Mayale have no background or foundation in this world. Even though he has been stumbled on the sidelines of Lorence in the past few days, Yi Ming still maintained a 120-year-old vigilance. Although Lorence said that he was a travel merchant without any power, Yi Ming didn't seem to be lying.

But knowing people and faces... I have experienced too many such things in my own world. In fact, Lawrence did seem to be the same as he said. But in this way, the nature of the three people walking together has changed. If it is to repay kindness, as long as Yiming and Mayalie can protect him from the desert, then everyone can naturally go their own way without owing each other. But if it is a hiring nature, even if Lawrence makes any requests and suggestions, it will be difficult for both of them to reject him.

"All right."

In the end, Yi Ming nodded in agreement. Anyway, there are still several days before leaving the desert. During this period, they can observe what kind of person Lawrence is. If it is indeed as they think, then Yi Ming does not care about killing him when leaving the desert to prevent future troubles. Never be deceived by the superficial illusion. Whether it is Meallie or Yi Ming, they are all people who have experienced the pain. Sometimes, those kind-hearted people are more worthy of being vigilant. On the contrary, those who look quite vicious may be unexpectedly easy to get along with.

The nights in the desert were very cold. Luoerens was obviously used to this kind of life. After setting a fire, he got into the underside of the beast cart, wrapped himself with a blanket, let the baffle block the cold wind of the sand and stones, and then fell asleep. Yiming and Mayalie obviously did not have such a good thing, but fortunately, Luoerens also prepared several blankets for them. The two of them covered the blankets at this moment, and at the same time used the other's body temperature to keep warm.

"Are you still uncomfortable?"

Meyalie leaned over with her weak body. It would be false if Yi Ming was not moved. But in fact, there was no relationship between men and women between the two, but the friendship between her companions was deeper. So although Meyalie's sweet breathing mouth was right in her ears, Yi Ming still had a greater part of her intellectual concern than her instinctive heartbeat.

(Um…………)

Mayalie closed her eyes. She now looked very weak, completely different from the daytime.

(But don't worry, in just a few more hours, I can use 'construction harmony', and there will be no problem by that time.)

Like Yi Ming, Mealli is one of the very few people in the world who have multiple abilities with "dualskill". In addition to being able to communicate with others at will, she also has a ability called "structural coordination". This ability can instantly change the user's physical condition and adjust Mealli's physical ability to the peak. But despite this, this ability can only last for twelve hours at most. Mealli's body is not very good. It is entirely because of this ability that she can tolerate such a vicious and uncomfortable climate in the desert. Otherwise, if a girl as big as her, she would not be able to endure it for too long in such a harsh environment.

“…………………”

Since Mayali said that, Yi Ming didn't ask anything else. He raised his head and looked at the boundless starry sky. This world was indeed different from the world where Yi Ming lived. Whether from the perspective of the constellations or the direction of the celestial bodies, Yi Ming couldn't find any familiar parts. Moreover, there are actually two moons in this world? Did he come to Mars? But it should be impossible for humans to live in Mars?

Looking at the other side, Mayalie had closed her eyes and fell asleep.

"It seems......"

Yi Ming's voice was very low, so low that he couldn't even hear it himself.

"We can't go back."

Before dawn the next day, Lawrence climbed up. Not only did he feed the animals, but he also needed to pack everything. Iming and Meallie couldn't help in this regard. After all, there was no such animal in their world... and this thing looked quite scary.

“You are really busy.”

The more I said the common word of the empire, the better it was, and it was no different from the mainland residents known to Lawrence. It was impossible to tell that it was the foolish boy who didn't even know what to say a few days ago.

"Oh... I'm working hard."

Lawrence sighed with a look of groaning. He hadn't done these jobs for a long time. However, the travel merchant, after all, had to rely on himself when he was away. There was nothing he could do about it, and he politely declined Yi Ming's request for help. After all, the camel beast looks honest, but if he gets angry, he will still cause trouble. What's more, Yi Ming and others have no experience, and even if they want to help, they have no way to interfere.

(Those sand thieves don't seem to follow us.)

Meyali, holding a small umbrella, walked down from the sand dunes. Her eyes, with different colors, were extremely bright under the sunlight. Her movements were light and agile and steady, and she could not tell that she was a weak person at all.

She still used it.

Yi Ming didn't say much. Mei Yali's body has never been very good, and she is born unchangeable. Only by using "structural coordination" can her body keep up with the pace of others. The same is true in the team. She has never been sad and lost because of her innate problems in her body. In fact, the ability she has gained now has made up for her defects well.

"It's good that there isn't, thanks to both of you."

Lawrence looked relaxed, and even Mealee's unique way of speaking seemed to be used to it.

"Then let's hurry up, time is very precious."

Driven by a whip, the camel beast took another step and walked towards the depths of the desert.
