In the northern part of the gravel wasteland, the terrain is constantly rising, which means that this desert is further away from the underground water storage layer, making it impossible to find any water source above the entire plateau sand sea.
This is a dry highland, one of the most desolate areas in the Aranok Desert, but it is home to many ancient underground ruins.
Among the yellow sand in the sky, three figures were running quickly.
It had been less than half a month since we left Lugaoyin City before we finally entered the range of the dry highlands. Along the way, the three of them killed a large number of monsters and finally reached level 22.
Every time he went deep into this desert, the boundless vastness made Mo Bei feel a little helpless. He felt like they were like three grains of sand in the vast sea of sand.
Coupled with the windy and sandy weather, even if I let go of the speed with the aura of vitality, it still seems to be standing still. After running for several hours, the scene around me didn't change much.
In a convoy very far away from here, Akali, who was holding a sword and shield and her fiery red hair swaying gently with her steps, also felt this way.
When we were walking in the darkness before, the feeling of the vastness and infinity of the world was not that strong. But during this time, the sun returned to normal, and her eyes intuitively felt the vastness of this desert.
Alvin moved closer to Akali and Ned and said in an envious tone:
"That Mario is so strong! He shattered the death beetle's carapace with one claw..."
"That was a crushing blow, and it should have been a critical hit, but the attack power is indeed very high." Akali nodded.
"Why don't you use that hammer?" Alvin asked.
"The attack power is a bit low, and the battery life is not enough."
Akali is currently holding a gold-level sword dropped by Andariel.

This top-quality long sword is inlaid with a complete skull, which greatly improves its endurance and can handle long-term and high-intensity battles.
"The way you use your sword is very similar to Mo Bei's." Ned said suddenly.
"He... has very strong sword skills." Akali found a reason for herself to imitate someone's attack method without knowing it, but she was still a little embarrassed.
"Why do you think you haven't moved since yesterday? My crow can't see any change in the terrain ahead. When will we arrive..."
"It should be soon. According to what Brett said, in another half month, we should be able to enter the gravel wasteland." After Ned finished speaking, he also exhaled softly.
"It will take another half a month...and we haven't even entered Lu Gaoyin yet..." Alvin hesitated.
"Cheer up! Pay attention to reconnaissance. The monsters in this area are very strong." Akali slapped Alvin with her shield.
"Oh..." Alvin responded weakly, returned to his seat with the three dogs, and took out a strange-looking serrated scythe and put it on his shoulder.

This scythe is also produced by Andariel and is very suitable for shape-shifting druids. It can open wounds and add damage from the werewolf's rabies virus. Although the attack effect is not as straightforward as the crushing blow, the overall damage is not much inferior to Mario.
It's just that the durability has bottomed out, which makes Alvin very anxious.
"You three need to work harder..." Alvin said sadly to the three dogs following him.
The three big white dogs glanced at him and then lowered their heads again, still looking lazy.
"Whoever attracts the wrong dog..." Ned couldn't help rolling his eyes when he saw this scene.
. . . .
Dry highlands.
When the three people from Mobei saw some exposed boulders in the sand dunes, they knew that they were finally approaching the first destination of their trip, the Dry Highland Teleportation Station.
The wind and sand had subsided, and the three of them climbed onto a boulder and looked into the distance. Sure enough, they saw a shadow that flickered on the horizon that was illuminated by the strong sunlight.
A group of death beetles in the distance also noticed their presence and crawled toward them menacingly.
Ordinary death beetles, because of their huge trunks and thick carapace, make their spiny limbs that are as thick as an adult's arm seem a bit overwhelmed. The speed of crawling is not much faster than that of ordinary people running.
But the group of beetles in front of them seemed to be stepping on a halo of vitality. They climbed up as fast as those sand jumpers.
The three of them saw at a glance that one of the carapace looked like a rusty beetle, and judged that it was a particularly fast elite. Compensating for the weakness of the Death Beetle, this group of monsters will become very difficult to deal with.
Milor's rotating bow shot through the freezing arrow and shot towards the gap between the elite death beetle's wing sheaths and chest carapace. Unexpectedly, the beetle's reaction was also unusually fast. With a press of its body, the ice shot out. The arrow hit the slope of the hard carapace and bounced into the air as if it were deflected by a shield. However, several arcs of electricity erupted from the body of the elite death beetle, making a crackling sound.
Mo Bei was speechless for a while. This attack probably didn't cause any actual damage, but it could also trigger lightning-enhanced charging bombs. It was such a shame.
The blazing flames ignited from the ground, and the other beetles were intimidated, but the elite was not afraid at all. A burst of electric arc burst through the fire wall, but the carapace seemed to be safe and sound. Even the two whiskers on the top of his head trembled with pride.
"I'll go... It's so arrogant, and it's ineffective to bring fire!" Mo Bei's hands were a little itchy, so he jumped off the boulder, trying to fight this seemingly invulnerable death beetle elite.
At this time, the other beetles were far away from this elite, and they were still under the indiscriminate bombardment of Perona.
Mo Bei launched a charge, passing by the right side of the elite death beetle, and struck a sword at the joint of a limb. The limb was broken off at the joint. Before the broken limb hit the ground, the tip of the sword ran along the space between the wing sheath and the head. The gap penetrated.
The beetle let out a "squeak" scream, and its head covered with thick carapace shrank. Mo Bei felt that the blade of the sword was fixed by a clamp on a steel lathe and could not be withdrawn for a while.
The shield roared out, and the edge hit the fist-sized compound eye hard, causing it to be dented and cracked, and black liquid splashed out.
The elite beetle was hit hard and trembled all over. Mo Bei felt that the blade of the sword was loose, and he twisted it inside his body before pulling it out with transparent mucus.
However, the shield in his left hand was held firmly by the three jointed limbs of the elite beetle at this moment. This was Mo Bei's most depressing situation. Even with his 80 points of strength, he could not compete with this elite death beetle.
The shield was as if it was welded to a steel pipe as thick as an arm. The last pair of limbs of the beetle were stuck in the sand under full drag, but the shield remained motionless. Xindao's attack method is simply rogue.
"later!"
Mo Bei heard Milor's reminder.
At the moment when the two sides were wrestling, another death beetle broke through the blockade of flames and rushed towards Milor with his arrow.
Only then did Mo Bei see clearly that there were less obvious fine lines on the death beetle's carapace, which looked like dark black Damascus steel.
I made a mistake, there are two elites!
Being torn apart by two elite death beetles, even with the resistance aura turned on, the armor would definitely be completely destroyed.
Mo Bei made a quick decision and released his shield. The giant war sword that had just been drawn split open a jointed limb with fine barbs to prevent the body from being hooked. However, his left hand subconsciously pulled out Griswold's sharp edge from the inventory, and slashed the head of the dark black elite beetle horizontally with his sword, driving it back a few steps.
He actually repelled it!
Mo Bei felt excited. Just now, he felt that even if he replaced the dark gold light shield, it might not have much defensive effect. These rogue beetles did not attack seriously at all, they just grabbed the shield and pounced on it and tore it apart.
So he had a flash of inspiration and drew out another weapon. Focusing on his left hand, he actually exerted the repulsive effect of the dark gold broad sword.
Except for barbarians and assassins, other professions hold two weapons at the same time. The properties of one of the weapons will not be recognized by the law. It is like holding a handle of mortal iron. Even though it can chop melons and vegetables, it will not pose any threat to monsters.
Mo Bei's usual habit is a sword in his right hand and a shield in his left hand. But some people prefer the sword in the left hand and the shield in the right hand. There is no difference in how this is reflected on the panel, it is just a matter of personal habits and combat performance.
But if he holds two weapons at the same time, he can only use the damage and attribute bonus of the weapon he habitually holds in his main hand.
Previously, he had transferred his consciousness, which was equivalent to turning his left hand into his main hand, and slashed away another elite beetle with one sword.
This unexpected attempt made him happy and gave him further ideas.
In this way, can both hands take turns to attack?
Although it is not a true dual-wielding, the consumption of mental power is also very intense, just like quickly switching halos. But at least I see hope in dual-wielding combat.
