What appeared in front of Chu He and others was a desert.
Looking at the desert, Chu He felt that his three views had been subverted.
After the barren plains, thorn bushes, and swamps, there is actually a desert.
Chu He once again lamented that the geographical environment of the other world was really weird.
Deserts and swamps are completely different geographical environments.
But these two completely different geographical environments are actually adjacent to each other.
If you haven't seen it with your own eyes, it's really hard to believe.
However, there is no danger in this desert for the time being.
Chuhe plans to rest here now.
After all, after a day's journey, although everyone was moving around in giant armored king crabs, they were still mentally exhausted.
"Lilith, let the Black Bat land!" Chu He said.
Lilith heard this and immediately let the Black Bat descend.
After everyone jumped off the black bat, they lay down on the spot to rest.
The desert is a bit cold at night, but in Chuhe's opinion, it's just right.
Lying on the cold sand, Chu He felt very comfortable.
After resting for a while, Lilith looked at Chu He and said pitifully, "Master, I'm so hungry!"
Hearing Lilith's words, Chu He smiled bitterly.
Not to mention her, Chu He was also very hungry.
But he could endure it for a while.
But Lilith, a foodie, couldn't bear it.
Chu He stood up and looked at the desert, feeling a little difficult.
You can't see any living things in this desert at a glance.
And we still don’t know what types of enemies there are in the desert.
If it is a poisonous scorpion, it cannot be eaten.
If he had known this, he should have brought more honey badger meat with him.
This way, at least you don’t have to worry about food.
"Do you have any demon-inducing incense?"
Chu He looked at Yang Meng and others and asked.
"I have!"
Liu Meng took out a stick of demon-inducing incense and handed it to him.
"But brother Chuhe, what do you want with this demon-inducing incense?" Liu Meng asked curiously.
"Aren't you all hungry?"
"I plan to use the demon-attracting incense to attract the creatures from this other world in the desert."
"If it's some edible creatures from another world, we can also fill our stomachs." Chu He said with a smile.
"That's right. I haven't eaten for almost a day. I'm really hungry!" Yang Meng said with a bitter smile.
When Chu He heard this, he said no more and immediately lit the demon-inducing incense.
He stuck the demon-inducing incense in the sand.
After a while, Chuhe felt the desert trembling.
A large number of earth-yellow worms emerged from the desert.
The worms are huge, each up to three meters long.
There are dense eyes on their heads, which look very penetrating just by looking at them. Their mouths are very large, with dense fangs inside, like lampreys.
[Desert Worm, Grade C, HP 3000]
Seeing these desert worms, Chu He felt troubled.
These desert worms look a bit disgusting. Are they really edible?
However, a person suddenly popped into his mind, and the other person was a man standing at the top of the food chain.
If someone were to see these desert worms, they would definitely say things like 'full of protein', 'chicken flavor', and 'crunchy'.
Indeed, no matter how you look at it, these desert worms appear to be rich in protein.
But if you want to eat it, it is really a bit unacceptable.
But now there is no other choice.
Chuhe immediately ordered action.
These desert worms were vulnerable to them.
After killing these desert worms, Chu He directly wore the burning medal and used the ability of the burning halo to roast the desert worms.
"Lilith, aren't you hungry?"
"Try it."
Chuhe cut off a piece of insect meat and handed it to Lilith.
Lilith looked at the roasted insect meat, which was more terrifying than the dark food she made, and shook her head repeatedly.
"Master, I'm suddenly not hungry anymore!" Lilith said with a bitter face.
Chu He took the roasted insect meat and looked at the others.
Zhu Moli and Xiao Yi retreated continuously, and Yang Meng immediately turned his head and pretended not to see them.
On the contrary, it was Liu Meng who took the initiative to walk up to Chu He, picked up the insect meat, and bit it in one bite.
The oil in the insect meat exploded in Liu Meng's mouth, and his expression changed.
Then he wolfed down the insect meat.
"Not to mention, it tastes really good!" Liu Meng said with some surprise.
Then he cut off a piece of insect meat and put it in his mouth.
Seeing the other party's satisfied look, Chu He also cut off a piece of insect meat and put it in his mouth.
"Does this insect meat taste so good?" Chu He was a little surprised.
The meat of this desert worm is somewhat similar to beef, and it is high-grade beef. It is rich in fat and has no peculiar smell.
The only drawback is that there is no salt, but the faint scent of oil is enough for him to eat it even when he is hungry.
Seeing that both Chu He and Liu Meng were eating, Yang Meng hesitated for a moment and joined the group.
Once he eats, he can't stop.
Lilith, a foodie, couldn't help it when she saw Chu He and the three of them starting to eat.
After she ate a piece, she became even more ferocious, picking up the insect meat and stuffing it into her mouth.
Seeing the satisfied expression on her face, Zhu Moli and Xiaoyi also joined the eating process.
A three-meter-long piece of insect meat was eaten by them all.
"By the way, what did you eat in the game in the past?"
After eating, Chu He lay on the desert, looked at Zhu Moli, Yang Meng and others, and asked curiously.
"In the past, I always ate fruits in games."
"There are many strange fruits in this different world." Zhu Moli said.
"As long as it's animal meat from another world, I'll eat it!" Yang Meng said.
"I'll eat anything!" Liu Meng burped and said with a smile.
When Chu He heard their answers, he couldn't help but sigh.
"It would be great if we could bring food into the game!" Chu He thought to himself.
Unfortunately, the gaming backpack cannot store anything other than Mist games.
However, the corpses of these desert worms can be put into a backpack.
In order to have food in the next few days, Chu He put ten corpses of desert worms in his backpack in case of emergency.
If you come across better food, just throw it away.
"Rest!" Chu He yawned and said.
For safety reasons, they all went to sleep on the giant armored king crab.
It would be dangerous if desert worms suddenly emerged from the ground and attacked them while they were sleeping.
Fortunately, the giant armored king crab's body is big enough, even if they sleep on it together, there will be no problem.
…
A night of silence.
The next day.
Chuhe woke up from the heat.
Glancing at the sun hanging in the sky, Chu He looked helpless.
The current temperature, he estimated, was forty-two or three degrees.
This high temperature made him a little unbearable.
But no matter how high the temperature is, we still have to hurry.
Today is already the third day of the game.
They were still halfway away from where the Blood Demon Priest was.
If everything goes well, we can reach the other party's location on the sixth day.
If it doesn't go well, you might not be able to see each other until the game time is over.
At that time, it would be over!
Chu He and others sat on the giant armored king crab and continued on their way.
Even though the giant armored king crab is a water-type creature, its physical strength is too high.
This high temperature has no effect on it.
As time goes by, the temperature continues to rise.
In just one hour, the temperature increased a lot.
The first ones who couldn't stand it were the black-spotted jackals who were used as cannon fodder by Chu He.
The high temperature dehydrated these black-spotted jackals one after another, and they fell to the ground one after another.
These black-spotted gnolls are D-level creatures. For ordinary people, one of them can fight a hundred.
But even if they have high physical fitness, traveling in this high temperature is still a huge trouble for them.
What's more, the hair on their bodies has to withstand even higher temperatures in this hot weather.
The black-spotted jackals fell one after another.
Looking at them, Chu He felt helpless.
When he first conquered the black-spotted jackal king, there were three to four thousand black-spotted jackals who followed him.
And now, even the last black-spotted gnoll has fallen.
But he couldn't care about them.
After all, he is also suffering from the heat now.
He was already sweating profusely just sitting there, doing nothing.
"Master, let me go back to the follower space!" Lilith said proactively, her hair sticking to her forehead due to the heat.
This is the first time Lilith has asked to return to the follower space, which shows how high the temperature is now.
Chuhe then recalled Lilith to the follower space.
"Brother Chuhe, the temperature continues to rise now."
"If it's noon, it's probably going to be fifty degrees."
"It's not good to travel in this high temperature!" Liu Meng looked at Chuhe and said with a solemn expression.
"Liu Meng is right. We continue to travel despite the high temperature. If we encounter the enemy again, we will be in trouble."
"High temperatures consume our energy."
"If we encounter some more enemies, our enemies will be even more exhausted."
"Even if we have strong physiques, we can't endure this high temperature for a long time!" Yang Meng continued.
Chu He also had a headache.
After thinking for a moment, Chu He said, "Otherwise, let's take a detour."
They are all in danger if they continue to travel in the desert.
Although the detour will take a lot of time, it is better than safety.
Everyone agreed with Chu He's proposal.
Seeing no one objected, Chuhe immediately asked the giant armored king crab to leave the desert.
Fortunately, they didn't enter the desert for long.
In just over an hour, they successfully left the desert area.
Feeling the temperature drop, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's outrageous!"
"I thought that with my physique, the high temperature would not have any effect."
"But if I continue to stay in that desert, I will become dehydrated!"
Liu Meng gasped and smiled bitterly.
"Let's rest for a while."
"We will set off again after our physical strength recovers," Chu He said.
Everyone jumped off the giant armored king crab and lay down on the ground to rest.
The carapace of the giant king crab becomes hot due to the high temperature.
Just standing on it is steaming.
Chu He glanced at the black-spotted Jackal King.
Now that he was the only one left, his mood did not change at all.
Chu He was very curious.
"Aren't you sad that all your people are dead?" Chu He asked.
"Master, you are worrying too much."
"As long as I am alive, our black-spotted gnoll clan will not perish."
"I can breed with gnolls from other groups."
"My bloodline can restore the number of my black-spotted gnoll clan again!" the black-spotted gnoll king explained.
When Chu He heard this, he said no more.
Everyone rested for more than half an hour, and after their physical strength was almost restored, they began to take a detour.
The direction in which they detoured happened to be the direction in which Liu Xiao and others detoured.
At this time, in a grassland, Liu Xiao and others were running desperately.
Behind them, a group of crazy giant mammoths were chasing after them.
"What bastard stepped into their territory?"
"Didn't I say, don't step into their territory!" Liu Xiao looked at the people running away with him and cursed angrily.
He really felt like he had terrible luck.
These people are all a bunch of pig teammates.
In the past few days, he has repeatedly asked everyone to obey his orders.
But there will always be some among them who cause trouble and cause some trouble.
Although the trouble caused is not big, it is still very troublesome to solve.
But this time, he repeatedly ordered everyone not to step into the territory of the fanged mammoth.
But some fools still stepped into the opponent's territory, causing them to be chased.
Liu Xiao learned about the habits of these fanged mammoths through his own innate abilities.
Compared to honey badgers, the temperament of these fanged mammoths can really be described as docile.
As long as you don't step into their territory, you won't be attacked by them.
There was no need to be chased by these fanged mammoths.
As a result, now they have to run for their lives.
Seeing the fanged mammoths getting closer and closer, Liu Xiao's face became ugly.
There are too many fanged mammoths, more than fifty.
Moreover, the combat effectiveness of these fanged mammoths is not inferior to that of honey badgers.
Facing so many fanged mammoths, he was confident that he could survive, but he would have to pay a heavy price.
He glanced at the others and sighed.
"Bless yourselves!"
After speaking, he glanced at Li Ya, a member of the Blood Alliance.
The two stopped together.
Then facing the attacking fanged mammoth, both of them took a step back.
The fanged mammoths chasing after them turned a blind eye to the two of them.
They also used this ability when being chased by the Honey Badger Beast.
This ability belongs to Liu Xiao, and is called [Take a step back to open up the sky].
When being chased by a creature in the fog game, just take a step back to eliminate the opponent's hostility.
Moreover, this skill of his can also be designated for other people to use.
However, this skill is ineffective against BOSS.
But even so, it's still very strong.
At least when facing non-BOSS enemies, his life-saving ability is very strong.
"Now how to do?"
"The team broke up and we were the only two left."
"Even if we go to the territory of the Blood Demon Priest, we can't solve it!" Li Ya looked at Liu Xiao and asked.
Liu Xiao sighed.
"If I had known that these guys were idiots, I should have acted with Chu He and the others!"
"It's a pity that we took a detour and couldn't catch up with them!"
"Let's go to the territory of the Blood Demon Priest first."
"Their target is also the Blood Demon Priest. As long as we get there, we should be able to meet them!" Liu Xiao said.
He is really ashamed of himself now.
In order to gain points as a team leader, he ended up bringing a bunch of pig teammates with him, which put him in danger many times.
If he had known this, he and Li Ya would have followed Chu He and the others.
