"Boss, we found a lake ahead."

Qi Hui flew over from the front and landed in front of Lu Cheng and Alecun.

"Lake? Why didn't we notice it when we were in the air just now?"

Lu Cheng touched his chin and thought.

"Let's go take a look."

He took the lead and flew towards the sand dune ahead.

Alecun was stunned as he watched the two men soaring into the air.

At this time, the backpack suddenly hit his back, and the armor opened, wrapping him in it.

"boom-"

The scorching air waves cut two deep cracks in the yellow sand on the ground, and the body roared into the sky.

"Plop-"

After crossing a U-shaped curve, the three of them landed on the top of the sand dune.

At this time, heavy fog filled the field of vision, and a sparkling lake loomed behind the fog.

"Is this a mirage?"

Lu Cheng flew slowly, approaching the lake.

The surroundings were very quiet, and there was no wind, but there were dark waves on the lake, and ink-colored vortices rolled up from time to time, like the eyes of a monster.

"There's something at the bottom of the lake!"

cried Alecun.

"Alert, an approaching unknown threat has been detected!"

The electronic sound prompted Lu Cheng to hover in the air and look around.

"Boss, something is moving in the sand dunes!"

Qi Hui immediately shouted.

Alecun turned his eyes and saw something moving rapidly in the yellow sand on all sides, reaching tens of meters in length and countless in number.

"It's a sand monster! It's the legendary sand monster!"

Alecun subconsciously reached out to touch his pistol.

"Alekon, the armor comes with its own weapon system!"

After Lu Cheng finished speaking, he flew towards the ground.

At this time, the surrounding yellow sand suddenly started churning, and the squirming monsters suddenly raised their bodies and rushed toward the three of them.

"It's a snake! A giant python!"

Qi Hui shouted, the cannon fired, and the bullets spun out.

The giant pythons in front of me were made of yellow sand, their fangs were exposed from their mouths, and they spat out long letters from time to time. Their tens-meter-long bodies were moving on the ground, their heads were raised high in the air, and the yellow scales on their trunks were clearly visible.

"ah-"

Alecon flew into the air, blindly controlling the firepower and firing recklessly.

Those ordinary machine gun bullets hit the bodies of these giant pythons and bounced away one after another. Only after the alloy-made armor-piercing bullets hit the bodies, the violent explosions could slightly open a few holes in the bodies of these monsters.

What surged out of the mouth was not the bright red blood, but the same yellow sand. The giant python did not know pain or fatigue, and continued to bite fiercely, twist and squirm until it was completely killed.

"Boss, do you want to ask for support?"

Qi Hui shouted.

"We tried it, but our signal was blocked!"

Lu Cheng and Qi Hui stood back to back, shooting while answering.

"How is it going?"

"Still can't get in touch."

Lu Mingyun frowned and replied.

Zhao Tianning sat on a stone opposite, holding the broken kettle in his hand.

At this time, Jiang Yueling circled and flew to the ground, folding her wings.

"Section Chief, our footprints were covered by the yellow sand kicked up by the strong wind, and we can't find our way back."

"What?"

Zhao Tianning stood up in a hurry. He rolled up his sleeves and looked at the smart device on his wrist. The compass on it was in a mess, just like the mood of several people now.

After the three people left the transport plane, they moved forward. Unexpectedly, they encountered a small storm just ten minutes after leaving the transport plane. They were caught off guard, and all the water bottles they carried were smashed, and their direction was lost.

"This is a magnetic field disorder. The last time this happened, it was the Snow Clan invasion."

Zhao Tianning said.

"Snow invasion, wormhole, time and space distortion?"

Jiang Yueling muttered something.

"Section Chief, I seem to hear the sound of water."

Lu Mingyun's ears moved slightly, absorbing all the sounds around him.

"The sound of water?"

Zhao Tianning was a little confused. There were no rivers or lakes on the map of this area. Could it be that Lu Mingyun was hallucinating?

At this time, Lu Mingyun had already jumped over the sand dunes at high speed and ran towards the distance.

The three of them finished their journey out of breath. At this time, a lake covered with vast mist appeared in front of them.

"Is this an illusion?"

Zhao Tianning was in disbelief.

The lake in front of me looks so real, with ripples and starlight reflections.

However, the appearance of such a large body of water in the desert certainly did not happen overnight. In the Tiannan Desert, where water is regarded as life, how come no one marked it on the map?

"Ouch-"

There were faint roars of wild beasts all around.

Lu Mingyun and Jiang Yuelington were always alert, turning their heads back to back and looking into the distance.

"Section Chief, there are animals drinking water by the lake, and they seem to have discovered us."

Lu Mingyun's extraordinary night vision ability allowed him to almost see the yellow hair on the bodies of the beasts.

"Beast? What beast?"

"Wolf!"

Lu Mingyun replied.

"Ouch-"

This time, the roar suddenly appeared close at hand.

"Bang! Bang!"

Zhao Tianning turned around and pulled the trigger. Two bullets were fired at the same time, hitting the wolf in the eyes.

The yellow wolf screamed, and its body flew away in the wind, turning into countless dust.

"What's happening here!"

Zhao Tianning was immediately shocked.

But in the next second, more wolves surged forward. They crossed the scattered yellow sand and pounced on the three humans.

"It's a sand monster!"

Lu Mingyun's three views have been completely shattered by reality, and he feels that he has become a devout believer in those local legends.

"Coming over here too!"

Jiang Yueling shouted in fear.

The wolves that were originally in the distant lake and river also waded through the shallows, and their undulating bodies quickly surrounded them like a tide.

"It's over! It's over! I'm going to die again!"

Lu Mingyun turned one hand into a steel shield, blocking the sand monster's fangs and claws, and the other hand turned into sharp steel claws, piercing the opponent's body fiercely. However, this attack seemed to be a punch on the cotton, and the sand monster

The monster's body quickly drifted away in the wind, and under the influence of inertia, he stumbled to the ground. In the blink of an eye, countless monsters rushed up and bit him.

Zhao Tianning kept shooting, trying to rescue Lu Mingyun. After finishing the bullets, he skillfully loaded two magazines with one hand at the same time and continued shooting.

Under his control, a pair of large-caliber pistols fired continuous suppressive firepower like a submachine gun.

Lu Mingyun finally emerged from the wolf pack, and Jiang Yueling quickly pounced down, grabbed him, and flew into the air.

Those tireless wolves formed a ladder and leaped high, only to be swept away by the oncoming iron feathers.

"Xiao Chu, we encountered a sand monster next to a nearby lake! They were some terrifying giant pythons. We defeated them with great difficulty! You must be careful!"

Lu Cheng's voice came from the other end of the communicator. Although it was intermittent, the complete information was transmitted.

However, at this time, the communicator rolled down into a patch of yellow sand, leaving only half of the screen exposed.

A few hundred meters away, Mu Chengsi and Jin Song protected Xiao Chu, whose arm was injured, and the three of them looked at the sky at the same time.

The night was dark, and countless strange yellow birds were hovering in the sky, their wings constantly flapping.

From time to time, strange birds swooped down with full strength, but when they flew over the heads of the three people, there was a blue barrier blocking them. The strange birds' vigorous attacks only left circles of blue whirlpools.

, gradually spread.

"Jin Song, what kind of creature is this?"

Xiao Chu asked while bandaging himself.

"I don't know, but it seems to be some kind of large raptor, an eagle or an eagle, a desert eagle or a sand sculpture..."

Jin Song felt a little speechless at his analysis.

Although he had seen a lot of weird and bizarre things over the years, he had never seen this scene before.

"Mu Chengsi, your mental ability can affect the human brain, but can it affect animals?"

Xiao Chu asked again.

"I'm afraid that won't work. Besides, these monsters don't seem to be animals. I can't feel the biological hot spots at all."

Mu Chengsi frowned.

"It's not a living thing, what is it?"

"I don't know, but we might be in trouble!"

Mu Chengsi breathed heavily, seeming to feel a lot of pressure.

Xiao Chu raised his head and was immediately shocked. Thousands of strange birds in the sky seemed to be controlled by some kind of force, and they swooped down in groups.

"Well……"

Huge shock waves flooded the blue barrier, and Mu Chengsi fell to the ground in pain.

"Bang-bang-"

Xiao Chu kept pulling the trigger of the shotgun, killing the strange birds that flew in through the barrier.

At this time, she discovered that after being hit, these strange birds were not as bloody as expected, but turned into balls of yellow sand and dissipated in the wind.

"Sure enough, those legends are true!"

Jin Song's face showed a complex expression of fear or excitement.

At this moment, there was a dull pain on his shoulder, and then his body was grabbed and flew into the air.

"elder sister!"

Jin Song shouted, his shoulder was pierced by the claws of the strange bird, and blood rushed out.

"Xiaosong!"

Mu Chengsi was shocked, stood up desperately, and chased in the direction of Jin Song.

A large group of strange birds came towards him. Xiao Chu immediately transformed into a purple stone form and waved the shotgun in his hand, trying to drive these monsters away.

"Da da da-"

The roar of machine guns could be heard in the air, mixed with the roar of armor-piercing projectiles.

The explosive fireball spread around Xiao Chu's body, and a lot of the energy was absorbed by her body.
