Delicacy in the Desert (1)

After An'an was taken care of, the group continued on their way. It wasn't until the sunlight was so intense that the beastmen found it hard to see the changes to the desert that they came to a stop.

"How long more before we arrive at Flame City?" Bai Qingqing asked.

Alva gave it some thought and then said, based on his intuition, "We're walking too slowly. It should take at least ten more days."

"Ten days…"

Bai Qingqing stroked An'an's hot skin and said softly, "Don't be scared, don't be scared. We still have half a month to go, there's still a chance for us to make it."

The beastmen ate the jerky happily, burying themselves in the sand to sleep like they did the day before. It was just that they didn't dare to split up today and stood closer together.

Curtis could afford to sleep once every few days, so he was left to keep watch. Parker also dug a hole near the beastmen and buried himself inside.
