Chapter 171 Expedition

Looking at Li Xiang's sincere expression, He Ming shook his head powerlessly and said, "You don't need to thank me anymore. Like you, I am here to find the secrets of these monsters. Everyone is the same, and no one owe anyone a message."

What kind of existence these sand monsters are? He already had a rough outline in his mind, but he was not completely sure. If Ye Zilan's soul-loving staff were here, he should be able to figure it out directly through their souls.

But why did he think of her again? He Ming found that he was silently chanting the name this time more and more times. Instead, the person he was determined to look for seemed to be getting less and less despicable. It was just one of them, now it was just a delusion.

He smiled bitterly with a self-deprecating smile, and He Ming said to Li Xiang, "You have also paid an extremely heavy price for these data. What are you going to do next?"

Li Xiang said, "My goal will not change, but I am very curious. What is the purpose of people like you coming to this desert? If you don't go deeper, you don't need to walk with others at all, and I don't believe you are also here for gold hunting."

He Ming smiled bitterly and said, "My purpose was to go deep into this desert to find people, but after so long, I only have a thought left to find one. However, no matter what, I will still go there in the deepest part of the oasis."

Li Xiang sighed lightly, "As mentioned on the map, the enemies here are as weak as babies than the depths of the oasis. So do you know much about the depths of the oasis?"

He Ming said, "I have never really arrived there, but according to what I know, I can still tell you that compared to the terrible legend, the evil in the depths of the oasis will only be more than your imagination, and it is terrible to the point of nonsense."

Li Xiang said, "You are not suitable to go alone now. We have obtained some information from the Sea of ​​Sand Monsters. Soon there will be organizations here. You might as well rest with us on the desert border for a few days, and then we will organize people to explore the Oasis."

He Ming thought about it and said, "Okay, then let's go."

The head of the Ma family frowned and walked back and forth with his hands on his back. The time agreed with Shabak was coming, and only the three major families were ready. The other small families were far from being in place, both manpower and supplies.

Once the action is formally taken, there will be many disputes. No matter whether it is losses or profits, those people will not let him be at peace. These things are now all thrown to the Ma family.

However, he himself did not have the authority of his father before, and could easily suppress most of the matter. So while sending people to negotiate with those people, he also notified Shabak City to delay his departure by one or two days. Anyway, the matter was about to come, and there was no difference between one or two days.

If the time has been delayed and those people are still not in place, then he has enough reason to limit their gains. Being immersed in these thoughts, Ma Er walked over.

He saw Ma Er's expression serious and joyful, and obviously found something, so he nodded slightly and signaled him to say.

"The Li family bought several outlaws who once betrayed their family. Yesterday, they obtained a potentially useful information. Please check the head of the family." Ma Er said.

He took over the densely written parchment paper, which detailed the process of their battle and their views on the sand monster.

"Interestingly, the entire area is controlled by a wind demon. All kinds of sand monsters that attack them should be animals devoured by quicksand, but they are different from the undead monsters. They can be eliminated through key strikes."

The head of the Ma family reads slowly

"Wind Demon who cleared that sand field, the desert became an ordinary sand field. There are many special metal fragments in the gravel turned into by the sand monster's corpse, which are currently very precious materials, but those fragments cannot be found in the ordinary sand field.

"That is to say, did the gold diggers use the living sand monsters to hunt for gold? This is so cunning." He said, "Immediately notify Li Tingao as detailed as possible. They will go to the front line to fight those monsters, hoping that this information can work!"

Ma Er nodded and said, "Yes! It's also thanks to the real outlaws who can analyze and collect so much information on that kind of scene. But according to them, they can come out alive, thanks to the number one wanted criminal who is wanted in Beech City."

The head of the Ma family laughed silently and looked at Ma Er and said

"It's the same myth. One person killed Biqi City and slaughtered the Yu family. He also set a fire to burn the yard and killed He Ming who floated away after the guard of the Qifeng?"

Ma Er said, "From the statement of the Li family, it is indeed him, and it is also unpredictable to gods and ghosts. It is really not a myth. However, when Bichi's messenger came to us with the White Sun Gate to diplomacy, he hinted that this person had made contributions to Bichi and wanted to capture him as much as possible."

"No matter how he is a life-and-death merit orc, the Li family is just throwing this trouble to us. Biqi City has been stuck in that little place and entangled with the orcs in a thousand years. In recent years, it has experienced the Woma disaster. According to spies, their current power will not exceed any of our big families."

After pondering for a while, he said, "It's also somehow an ally. You can try to fight and send someone to tell them in person that He Ming has appeared in the League Mainland Region and is now missing."

Ma Er nodded and said, "Yes, the little guy will do it right away, but I heard Ma Jin mention that this person is very likely to have a good relationship with Ye Zilan and guard them."

"Those people came from Beech, just don't get involved. What I'm worried about is that the letter said that the wind demon was severely injured, but he still ran away. I remember telling Li Tingao that this time it swallowed up very elite warriors, unlike the previous gold diggers, I don't know if it will bring unknown changes to the sand monsters in the future."

Ma Er bowed to the ground and then walked out.

Greedy adventurers and gamblers and tramps are concerned about the wealth in the endless sea of ​​sand. If they are not prepared enough, they will basically be the valuable metals used by the sand monsters in the sea of ​​sand using them as bait, and moths throwing fire to turn themselves into part of the sand monster, making the sand monsters stronger.

The most keen and cunning disadvantaged people, the sand monsters can always lurk like they do not exist, waiting for the gold diggers and adventurers to obtain the most precious fragments from them, and be blinded by interests, and completely lose their guard and swallow them in one bite.

The higher-level Tucheng nobles, although they also coveted the wealth and resources there, were more aware of why they were nobles.

Unlike Beech City, which can only rely on a huge city and several small villages for thousands of years, because of the magical rainy season and special geology of the Union, all west of Shabak are planted, grazed and hunted by residents of Tucheng. Humans are truly the master of this land.

As the rainy season passes, residents scattered all over the country need to return to Tucheng for transactions to make a living. It is precisely the huge population and distribution that makes Tucheng affordable horses, Wang, Li and some small nobles.

Once the huge temptation brought by the interests in the desert makes a large number of people who do not have a very strong sense of belonging be attracted to them but are devoured by those sand monsters, then the alliance will no longer be able to support such a large number of nobles. The reason why those little nobles are not panic is that they know that the three major families are more anxious.

So when another deadline came, the materials agreed upon by the little nobles were still symbolic and could not serve as a supply function to go to war. The heads of the three major families made up their minds that since they did not intend to invest, they would not have any share of the benefits they gained in the desert.

After returning the pitifully few supplies sent by the little nobles, the three major families directly raised the supplies from the warehouse and asked the team they organized to take to Shabak City.

After all, the population, resources and new territories that can be opened up in the jurisdiction are only the three major families who will focus on it. As long as the little nobles sweep the snow in front of their doors, they will not think so far. Even if the desert really has a lot of benefits, their situation will not change much. It is best not to participate in one plus one subtraction.

So the Tucheng powerful people who had been tangling with these things finally made the final decision. As soon as their people arrived at Shabak City, they found that the operation time had been delayed for two days, but the teams going to Shabak City were already ready to go, as if they were going to set off even if they didn't come.

Ma Jin urged the horse to run closer to the commander of the team, Ye Zilan, and immediately bowed and said, "I'm very sorry that we are late. Now, both life and supplies are all ready, and we are all subject to your command!"

Ye Zilan said, "The cold wave passed the day we decided to set out. As the weather warmed up, even if we used swords, we could not stop the adventurers. In the past four days, countless people had sneaked to the desert, and the few were carried back. Every delay of one minute would cause the Alliance to lose more people."

Ma Jin said, "The Ma family is very sorry for this. Fortunately, we have made all preparations now, and I hope it will not be too late."

Ye Zilan said, "Fortunately, we have also tested the information about the sand monsters that the Li family has obtained from their death. The situation is true. This will be of great help to our actions. We plan to concentrate the large troops to clear out a safe area of ​​the sea of ​​sand monsters and open up the road to the oasis. The oasis area is even more dangerous. I hope you are mentally prepared."

Ma Jin straightened his body, put his hand on his chest and said, "We are all ready, just wait for your order. Please treat us as a pawn and give the order!"

Ye Zilan pointed his staff to the east and shouted, "Set out!"
