Chapter 286 Desert Edge

The dust of the desert is no longer here.

Here is the edge of the desert, in the interior of the Eastern Continent. A wonderful plant with spherical leaves grows on the edge of the sand. They are like a boundary line, drawing a trace between the desert and the land.

The fifty-meter-long arrow stone slowly flew down from the air and landed on a sand dune.

‘Boom—! ’ At the moment when the arrow stone landed, there was a sound in the distance, and a crystal-like object fell to the ground, splashing all over the sky.

Lin called that thing... the 'explosive crystal bomb carrier'.

Just like the name, it is used to load crystal bombs. During the period when Lin set out to find the kingdom of heaven, she encountered many similar things. These things surprised Lin, mainly because of their number.

It's really, very, very many... Just like the thousands of crystal bombs that Lin encountered before, buried in the sand, also in the air, these 'explosive bomb carriers' are also scattered in the sea of ​​​​clouds.

They are usually hidden in large seas of clouds, and when Lynn's troops approach, they will attack.

Their structure is very simple, that is, a large crystal contains several crystal bombs, but some carriers have special defense units, which Lin calls 'crystal saws'.

Like a saw, it cuts the target thing with a sharp edge and flies with a spin.

Unlike those crystal bombs in the sand that would not resist, these things attacked frantically as soon as Lin approached, which caused the arrow stone to suffer a lot of damage, and part of the arrow stone's carapace was shattered. There is also a lot of blood loss.

so. The arrow stone just landed here. Going to do some recovery first.

Lin has almost never been to this place, so you can see some novel things here, and these novel things are also helpful to Lin.

A group of strange creatures appeared in Lin's field of vision.

These creatures are more than a meter long and resemble dragons, but they have no tails and round heads. The spine on the back protruded, and the whole body looked like a shriveled corpse that could crawl.

So Lin called them shriveled monsters, which are a kind of creature between Maoyu and reptiles.

These creatures can only be seen on the edge of this desert, and those plants that are like border lines,

They are also grown...

The large plants that grow on the edge of the desert, which Lin calls blood globule trees, are usually about two meters in height, without any green structures on their bodies, and instead are red spheres growing from the branches.

It looks like a blood cell, in fact. It's the actual blood cells, and they have a strange relationship with the shriveled monster.

Actual shriveled monsters aren't that shriveled by nature. But when they are young, they will be parasitized by the seeds of the blood cell tree. These trees will grow directly from the skin of the young, absorb blood and produce blood cells. These blood cells are actually swollen leaves, but they are no longer green. .

When the shriveled monster becomes an adult, part of its blood will be sucked clean, and its body will become like a mummy, but they can still survive. At this time, they will pull the grown tree from the body and plant it on the ground. And it feeds on the blood cells it produces.

Adult shriveled monsters will not be parasitized, but juvenile blood cells that eat mixed seeds may be parasitized, and then repeat the previous process.

The shriveled monster will also capture other creatures, kill them and bury them under the blood cell tree to "feed" the tree, so that the blood cell tree can continue to grow without the parasite, and the shriveled monster also has continuous blood cells to eat.

They form a symbiotic relationship in this wonderful way.

Therefore, they also want to attack Lin's arrow stone now, no matter how big the target is, they will try it.

A large group of shriveled monsters climbed up the dunes and surrounded the head of the arrow stone, they seemed to be thinking about how to attack the target, drag the target back and so on, the arrow stone looked injured and made them feel that it was OK deal with.

However, the arrow stone moved first, and a tentacle shot out of the arrow stone's mouth instantly, stuck a shriveled monster and dragged it into the mouth.

The shriveled monsters around were suddenly startled, and they ran away while shouting.

As for the shriveled monster in Arrow Stone's mouth, a tiny tentacle pierced its brain and slowly connected to its brain.

This kind of creature has a good memory, so this is one of the reasons why the arrow stones landed here, and Lin can use them to make some observations...

In fact, the current location of the arrow stone is the area where the creator's kingdom of heaven is located.

All kinds of data in the kingdom of heaven seen in the master's dream, such as climate, microorganisms, temperature, etc., can only be matched with this position at the border of the desert, which can be said to be the only place ...

However, Lin couldn't find anything. There are many small arms flying in the air now, and there are only countless floating clouds in their field of vision, and the diameter of each cloud sea is only tens of meters at most.

Under the ground, Lin was also searching, but there was nothing but mud except for the sand below, and there was no response from large-scale detection such as brain waves or sound.

Only the smell, the air is full of suspicious smells, like the smell of alloys.

But there is no specific distribution site, just drifting in this place, and no specific target can be found.

There are several possibilities. One is that the position of the kingdom of heaven has changed. If it is a floating thing, it can change its position at will. Another possibility is that they are hidden.

However, even if they may be hidden in the present, they should not have been continuously hidden in the past.

Therefore, the creatures who have lived here for a long time should have seen something.

However, the shriveled monster caught now has only lived for a few years, and there is nothing that Lin wants to see in his memory, but in its memory, Lin sees other useful things.

If you want to see long-term conditions in this area, you have to find the creature with the longest lifespan among them.

The arrow stone spit it out, and then slowly floated up from the ground and flew over the blood ball bushes ahead.

The shriveled monsters below watched the arrow stones fly over, and while shouting, they grabbed some gravel and gravel and threw them here, and when the arrow stones approached, they fled in terror.

Among them, you can also see some fat, shriveled cubs, and there are two small trees growing on their backs.

However, what Lin was looking for was not this group of creatures, but a huge creature inside the woods...

Now that Lin has seen it, it is twice the size of other shriveled monsters, and it can be called a 'shriveled elder. ’

This shriveled monster has lived for a long time, just like some reptiles, they have no lifespan limit, as long as they are alive, they can continue to grow.

The moment the elder saw the arrow stone, he fled backwards, but the arrow stone shot out the tentacles at a faster speed, and instantly wrapped around its head.

Arrow Stone retracted his tentacles and pulled the elder up.

'Boom! ' At the same time, a voice also rang out...

At this moment, the elder's body was instantly covered with countless cracks, and then, its body cracked open, and the blood scattered like a fountain.

In less than a second, the elder's body disappeared and became a pile of minced meat on the ground.

This is... I saw a little sparkling reflection in the sky in the distance.

The arrow stone slightly changed the eyeball used for farsightedness, and he could see that the reflection was actually a crystalline structure, and the attack just now was obviously made by it.

The construct stayed in the air for a few seconds, then turned and flew away quickly.

Obviously, its attack was not aimed at the arrow stone, but was aimed specifically at this elder. Could it be that the 'creator' did it on purpose? However, it appears to have made some... blunders.

Because it only shattered the elder's body, and the elder's head was still in the tentacles of the arrow stone.

At the moment it was broken, the arrow stone protected it, first stopped the bleeding, and then quickly connected and provided nutrients, so that the creature could survive even with only one head left...

The shriveled elder has lived for more than fifty years, and he must have seen a lot of things during his life here.

In the case of the structure attack just now, it must have seen something more important.

Then let's take a look at its memory.

Lin, entered the dream again.

This piece of sand seems to have not changed since decades ago... Although the scenery is blurred, it is very rare for this creature to remember things so long ago.

Lin observed its entire dream at a very fast speed. Lin saw the growth, hunting, eating, etc. of this creature. At the same time, she also saw the scene in the air.

Almost thirty years ago, a huge object appeared in the sky.

It seems to have appeared there suddenly, because the shriveled monster does not often look up at the sky, but once in a while 30 years ago, Lin saw this thing.

It was bigger than any cloud island Lin had ever seen... It could be said to be a continent in the sky.

But how big is the specific size, I can't see it in this dream... Presumably, this is the kingdom of heaven.

Lin accelerated the dream to the nearest, and found that during this period, every time the shriveled monster looked up occasionally, she could see the place of heaven.

Only recently, hundreds of days and nights ago, did this floating thing suddenly disappear.

There is no trace of movement, and there is no sound, because it is a recent memory, this part is also relatively clear...

But Lin at least knew that it was not hiding because of Lin's attack, but for some other reason.

Where are you hiding?

Lin thinks it should be in that direction...

Thinking about it, Lin looked at the plain in the distance... (To be continued..)
