Chapter 26 Behind the Desert

Isabel single-handedly wiped out the sandworms occupying the oasis, and restored the only transit point in the desert. But it is a pity that the oasis foundation run by the Bedou tribe for generations was destroyed.

The former oasis is now only a few sunken and collapsed sand caves, and everything else has been turned into dilapidated ruins.

A white light lit up on Isabel.

Wisps of black mist rose from the ground ahead, and these black mist condensed into a vague shadow. A dialog box popped up on Sombra's head, but it was full of garbled characters.

Garbled characters also appeared above Isabel's head, and she conducted an encrypted communication with the other party.

Soon, the shadow dissipated.

Facing the computer screen, Isabel knelt on one knee and said, "My lord, I used last-minute prayers to ask the dead here. They told me that the sandworms attacked here to rob the copper mines under the oasis."

"Sandworms like ores. They will eat ores and turn metal elements into parts of their bodies, thereby strengthening their bodies."

"Most of the mining areas in the desert are occupied by groups of sandworms from different regions. Only this place is protected by the power of the gods, so that they cannot approach."

"Not long ago, they discovered that the power of the gods was no longer shrouded here, and the sandworms quickly attacked the oasis. In order to snatch the copper mines, a small-scale war broke out among them. The twelve sandworms I disposed of, That's the original winner here."

Lu Yao was delighted to hear that.

There is actually copper.

He was worried that the garlic tribe hadn't clicked on the skill tree for metal smelting, but he didn't expect the opportunity to be in the desert.

But Isabel's next words immediately poured a basin of cold water on him.

"There are not many copper ores here, and they have been eaten by sandworms now. Sandworms are a kind of monster that can not eat for a long time. When they encounter copper ore and iron ore, they will eat crazily until all the ores are gone. Digestion."

Copper mines have been eaten...

Lu Yao looked at the insect corpses on the ground, and suddenly an idea came to his mind.

Since the ore is eaten by the sandworms to strengthen the body, can it be understood that the copper ore is still a part of the sandworm corpse?

Lu Yao ordered.

— Check the body for copper.

It didn't take long for Isabel to get the test results.

"Just like what you said, my lord, there are pieces of copper under the sandworm's skin, and these copper pieces are very strong."

Lu Yao said in his heart that it was true.

Without the apostles, it would be impossible to discover the secret of the sandworm.

No.

Without the apostles, it would be impossible to enter the desert and fight the sandworms.

Relying on the Garlic tribe's own strength to enter the desert to fight against the sandworms is undoubtedly asking for a dead end.

Because of the existence of Isabel, it is possible to enter these dangerous high-level areas.

Next, the hunters of the garlic tribe followed Isabel into the desert and came to the oasis. When they saw the dead snake-like sandworms all over the place, the little pixel people were very excited.

"What a mighty monster. They must have been terrible when they were alive."

"Their skin is thicker than that of a sea monster, and their bodies are bigger than that of a sea monster."

"Monster meat! Leather! And strong bones!"

"Harvest!"

Suddenly, an exclamation point appeared on the head of a pixel villain.

"There's something in the sandworm skin. It's copper! It's copper!"

A line of words appeared on the screen.

[The Garlic tribe discovered copper. ]

A brand new resource has also been added to the resource bar at the top of the game interface: Metal.

There is currently only copper in the [Metal] column, and it is red and scarce.

Then the villains were busy, cutting up the corpse of the sandworm, and then transporting it back to the garlic tribe with camels. Due to the long journey and the many corpses of sandworms, the tribe called all the camels, and the shaman personally directed the transportation here.

During this trip to the desert, Isabel cleaned up the sandworms along the way, and re-dragged the passage to the plains and oases of the garlic tribe.

Getting out of the desert is only a matter of time.

At this time, Lu Yao suddenly saw a reminder.

[In order to thank you for recovering the former site of the Bedou tribe, the astrologer Shahan taught the Garlic tribe mining techniques. ]

[The garlic tribe has learned the mining technique. ]

[The Garlic Tribe gained prestige among other tribes because they mastered the new technology. ]

[The garlic tribe discovered iron. ]

[The Garlic Tribe discovered the gem. ]

[Garlic tribe discovered gold. ]

[The garlic tribe discovered silver. ]

[The Garlic tribe discovered the crystal. ]

A series of reminders made Lu Yao turn his attention to the tent next to the temple.

The former leader of the Bedou tribe, now the weather forecaster of the Garlic tribe, was kneeling outside the temple, sticking his head to the ground very piously, expressing his gratitude to Lu Yao.

He still had a hand left.

Lu Yao couldn't help thinking.

Since Shahan has hidden secrets, is it possible for other people to do the same?

Perhaps only when they achieve the most important goals in their hearts and fulfill their obsessions and expectations, will they be willing to share all their technologies and experiences.

After learning to mine, the tribe gradually separated some people and began to dig and excavate around the stones, and the use of stones became more popular. The most direct change was that there were more low walls made of stones outside the houses.

In addition, the garlic tribe gradually learned the most primitive smelting method. The little people dug a big hole in the ground, piled up firewood and lit a fire, and burned copper, iron, silver, and gold from the ore.

Not long after, the words [The gift is completely completed, and the fishing net is integrated into the world] appeared on the screen.

It's time to launch new tools again.

Lu Yao stretched, got up and stretched his fingers and back.

Every step forward in tribal civilization is backed by the pain of the gods.

In this winter, Isabel cut down the sandworms along the way, walked out of the vast southern desert, and came to a new world.

It was a city called Sanilo, far more civilized than the Garlic tribe.

Sanilo was built by the sea and controlled the estuary. There are not only neatly arranged houses, straight and criss-crossed stone roads, but also a full range of shops in the city.

There are tens of thousands of people in the city, and some fishing boats and sailboats are moored in the port near the sea.

The only problem is, the inhabitants of Sanillo aren't human.

This is a city where ghosts live.

Initially, Saniro's ghosts had a little misunderstanding with Isabel. After Isabel killed nearly half of the ghost soldiers in the city, the ghosts changed their attitude and welcomed her warmly.

The people of Sanillo treated Isabel as a guest of honor and introduced her to the city's rich history. The local people expressed their willingness to believe in the God Yao and offer their faith in order to obtain the blessing and forgiveness of the God Yao.

The situation is stable.

"The city of Sanilo has always been hospitable, and especially respects and believes in the powerful gods. It is our honor to have a noble apostle like you visit." Chapman, the mayor of Sanilo, said so.

"Don't dare to hide it from you, Lord Isabel, in fact Saniro is a cursed city."

"This place used to be extremely prosperous in the past. The city was proficient in maritime trade and planting, and the population far exceeded the present. But after the forest god we believed in fell, this place was cursed by another god."

"All of us were executed and turned into ghosts."

"And the gods lowered the totem so that the ghost of Sanilo could never leave this place to punish us for our heresy. Except for the Bedou tribe in ancient times, no one has visited here for many years."
