Chapter 122 Sandstorm
"Ah? What's going on? Aliens are calling again?"
Lu Mingyun shouted in panic.
"Hit you on the head, have you forgotten where we are?"
Jiang Yueling knocked him on the head.
"correct!"
Lu Mingyun suddenly reacted, stood up immediately, and rummaged around in his backpack.
"What are you looking for? Are you in such a hurry?"
Ning Tianhan asked.
"My Lao Gan Daddy hot sauce, you almost robbed it all while we were eating! I have to see if anyone eats it while I'm sleeping."
Lu Mingyun replied.
Everyone was speechless.
At this time, Alecun's intercom rang.
After a short phone call, his face darkened.
"What happened?"
Lu Cheng asked.
"A group of herdsmen thought that there would be no more sandstorms so soon after the sandstorm, so they drove their sheep to the pastures to the north. Now they are trapped halfway and are asking the police station for help!"
Alecun sighed, and then he and Batur checked the equipment on their bodies.
"What, are you two planning to go out like this?"
Xiao Chu glanced at the sky outside, shook his head and said.
"No way, who calls us policemen? When we were young, a policeman sacrificed his life to save the two of us from the gunpoint of terrorists! From then on, we vowed to be like that savior.
Even if you light yourself up, you must light up others!"
After speaking, Alecon walked towards the door.
Everyone stood up one after another.
"We are the Sky Shield Pioneers, and our mission is to protect the safety of mankind! We will go with you!"
Lu Cheng reached out and patted Alecun on the shoulder and said.
"Thank you all! With your help, the herdsmen will be saved!"
Alecun pulled Batur beside him, and the two of them bowed to everyone together to thank them.

In order to cope with the wind and sand outside the house, Lu Cheng, Qi Hui and others put on battle armor, while others changed into wartime state, or wrapped themselves in thick cotton robes.
After passing through a section of overwhelming wind and sand, everyone finally arrived under the transport plane.
"What kind of plane is this? Have you never seen it before?"
The person who spoke was Batur, which surprised the others.
"This is called the Storm Transport Plane. It can withstand nuclear explosions! You can fly from here to Tianlin City within an hour!"
Ning Tianhan replied.
The cabin door opened, and everyone walked in one after another and found their seats.
"Lu Mingyun and Jiang Yueling are responsible for driving!"
Lu Cheng ordered.
"Jin Song, turn on the computer and always pay attention to abnormal energy fluctuations."
He turned his eyes and continued.
"clear!"
Everyone shouted in unison.
The searchlights on the outer shell of the transport plane were turned on one after another, illuminating the sky.
The vertical engine at the bottom of the cabin sprayed out fierce flames, and the cabin shook and slowly rose up.
Alexkin and Batur looked at this scene, their hearts trembling uncontrollably, and they couldn't help but tighten the seat belts in their hands.
"The current altitude is one thousand meters, and the instantaneous wind speed around is 100 kilometers per hour!"
Lu Mingyun reported.
"Continue to rise and get out of the sandstorm range."
"clear!"
Lu Mingyun pulled the joystick, and the fuselage rose rapidly.
"Fifty kilometers away from the target area, slow speed, expected to arrive in three minutes."
Jiang Yueling also reported the parameters.
"three minutes……"
Batur was even more shocked. According to their original prediction, it would take at least an hour or two to drive to the rescue, even if the vehicle was not damaged.
"Escape from the sandstorm and enter the stratosphere."
"Everyone prepare for battle!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Cheng immediately gave the order.
—————————————————————————————————————
Fifty kilometers north of Oasis City, the originally overgrown Gobi Desert has turned into an endless night.
A huge storm swept over the head, and various boulders rolled and galloped, making a deafening sound.
Behind a leeward sand dune, a dozen men wrapped in nomadic robes were huddled together, shivering.
The oldest among the men has gray hair on his temples, and the youngest is only fifteen or sixteen years old, looking like he has graduated from junior high school.
The elders gathered the younger ones in the middle, lowered their bodies as low as possible, and lay on the ground, holding grass or stones in their hands, closing their eyes and gritting their teeth.
The sheep that came during the day have long since disappeared. At this time, the only thing they can hope for is that they can live to see the sun rise tomorrow.
"boom-"
I don't know if it was an illusion, but some people suddenly heard the roar of an engine.
A young man raised his head and saw a beam of light falling through the dark sky.
"Uncle, uncle, someone is here to save us!"
The boy shouted excitedly.
"Child! Get down quickly!"
The old man wearing a white felt hat behind him immediately stretched out his hand to push the child to the ground.
However, at this moment, another storm swept through, and the teenage boy was suddenly blown up like a leaf, his body rolled in the air, and flew towards the distance.
"Ah! Help!"
The young man turned pale with fright and lost his mind. Seeing a cliff not far away, he closed his eyes in fear.
"boom-"
My head suddenly hurt, as if it had hit something solid.
The young man struggled to open his eyes, and found that something was shooting out flames from behind him, and he righted his body.
Amidst the sound of machinery, the armor quickly unfolded, completely wrapping the young man in it.
"What's this?"
"Welcome to the Xingtian Armor, now activate the remote control mode."
Electronic sounds rang in his ears, and red light reflected on the young man's face.
"boom-"
Flames spurted out from under his feet, and his body flew up into the sky.
"ah-"
The boy exclaimed loudly, the wind whistled in his ears, and he didn't know where the end point was. This feeling of fear made people feel like their hair stood on end.
Until his feet stepped on a solid object again, the helmet opened, and the young man opened his eyes and saw bulkheads made of steel all around.
He turned around and saw the strong wind howling outside the cabin door, and the entire cabin door was trembling slightly.
The armor behind him retreated, then separated and flew towards the ground again.
After experiencing this series of incredible things, the young man was in a trance, his legs were weak and he collapsed to the ground. Someone immediately came up from behind and helped him up.
Brand-new flame-colored battle armors were constantly being launched around him, flying towards the door of the cabin.
A moment later, all a dozen herdsmen were rescued onto the plane, and the cabin door slammed shut, blocking out the dark world.
"Everyone, you are shocked!"
Lu Cheng paced among the rescued herdsmen with his hands behind his back, thinking of words of comfort.
Xiao Chu took a few girls to distribute cotton-padded clothes and hot soup to everyone to keep out the cold.
"Thank you, thank you!"
The herdsmen were a little shocked, but they still nodded subconsciously in thanks.
"With the lessons learned this time, I hope everyone will not go out to graze in such dangerous weather in the future."
Zhao Tianning advised.
"No, sir! This is not dangerous weather, this is the trouble caused by the sand demon outside Kunlun City!"
An old man with gray hair said anxiously.
"Sanded? Sorry I've only heard of frosted."
Lu Mingyun interjected.
"It's the Sand Devil, the devil in the desert. When I was a child, I heard my grandfather tell me that there is a Kunlun City to the north of Oasis City. It is located at the foot of Kunlun Mountain. It has existed thousands of years ago. People live in the desert outside Kunlun City.
He is a ferocious sand demon, and whenever he is unhappy, he will set off a terrible sandstorm, swallowing up all the surrounding humans."
The old man's face was full of seriousness, and he seemed to be convinced of this matter.
"Kunlun City? Is this place on the map of Middle-earth?"
Lu Cheng asked doubtfully.
"Of course not, and Kunlun Mountain is not in the north, but in the south, still far away from here."
Xiao Chu replied.
"Then it's obvious that this is just another myth."
Lu Cheng concluded.
Judging from the fact that the local old people here worship themselves and others as gods, it is easy for them to become superstitious about ghosts and gods.
Therefore, under such extreme weather phenomena, it is normal to have speculations about ghosts and gods.
"Yes, there are no ghosts and gods in this world."
Lu Mingyun added.
"Then what is Qin Ruochen?"
Jiang Yueling asked.
"Ruochen, he is just the leader of an alien race called the God Clan. The God Clan was once defeated by the Snow Clan, and the Snow Clan was defeated by us humans. In this way, we humans can also defeat the gods, even humans are inferior.
The god is so unworthy, can he still be called a god?"
Lu Mingyun explained.
"What Lu Mingyun said makes sense."
Lu Cheng nodded.
—————————————————————————————————————
The crowd sent the dozen herdsmen on the plane back to their homes, and then returned to the cabin.
"Captain, the computer detected abnormal energy fluctuations during the flight just now, which seems to be related to the Sky Mending Stone."
Jin Song said.
"Can the trajectory be traced?"
"Tracking."
Jin Song nodded.
Lu Cheng sat back down, looked at the terrible scene outside the porthole, and fell into deep thought.
At this time, the policeman named Batur sat down next to him, seemingly holding a pendant in his hand.
"What is this? An agate pendant? It's quite beautiful. I didn't expect you, a tall and thick man, to like to dress yourself up."
Lu Cheng joked.
"This is not to dress yourself up, this is a talisman."
Batur showed the pendant to everyone.
"The pattern of Kunlun City is engraved on it. My mother hopes that this amulet can protect me just like Kunlun City resists sand demons and protects the world."
"Wait a minute, it's the Sand Demon again, and Kunlun City is still protecting the human world? What's going on? Batur, do you also believe in those legends of ghosts and gods?"
