Star of Civilization

Not long after, he and several of his men rode to the place the spy said.

It is a wasteland less than 10 kilometers away from the top of this mountain. A small river flows quietly from west to east, surrounded by beaches and grasslands. The river was crystal clear, and the pebbles sank to the bottom, occasionally reflecting sparkling light.

The surrounding ground is covered with grass and wildflowers, and there are a few low hills a little further away. The grass on the hills floats like waves when the breeze blows.

At first glance, this place is a quiet and peaceful atmosphere, and the ecological restoration is excellent.

However, there is horror brewing in this quiet wasteland-human corpses everywhere seem to tell how terrible things have happened here, there is no **** smell in the air, because-there is no biological blood scattered in this place On the ground.

Those corpses were obviously the defense forces who had just left the city for exercises not long ago, and their shriveled uniforms clearly showed their identities.

They are soldiers in Shacheng.

However, what is incomprehensible is that their bodies seem to have absorbed all the water in their bodies by something.

Frightened and distorted face, open mouth, no eyeballs in the sunken eye sockets, it is a dark hole. And those stiff hands and arms that stretched out in the air, as if trying to reach something? Almost every corpse became a mummy!

"Look! On them!" a man shouted.

Following the direction of his fingers, General Lu Feng saw that the clothes on a certain corpse were like a very fine powder, which was blown away by the wind and scattered elsewhere! Only the shriveled corpse remained, still supporting the ground in a panic.

Some parts of the body are translucent, and the bones can be vaguely seen!

The skin on his body was blown up with some powder in a breeze! After the powder dissipated...the apple that seemed to be bitten off was missing a piece.

At this time, except for the occasional wind blowing the grass and making a gentle "whipping" sound, there was deathly silence all around.

Except for a few of them, there was no living creature in sight. They also found a few dead birds not far away, their bodies were the same and extremely dry.

Everyone was horrified. There were dozens of corpses of guards scattered in the wilderness in front of them, and almost all of them had weapons, but those weapons were obviously not used.

This is strange!

This can only explain one thing-even these dead people don't know how they died, otherwise how could they not even fire a shot.

This scene makes everyone alive terrify...

What did they encounter? Is this how to die?

Although the cause of death is not yet clear, it is certain that the cause of death was related to water. The moisture on their bodies, including the moisture in the eyeballs and blood, is gone, as if they were drained.

Who did this? Or what did it do?

While they were looking at them and secretly fearing in their hearts, the old man spoke.

"No, it's too dangerous...Hurry up! You can't stay here for long!"

Lu Feng frowned and said decisively.

The few people didn't even dare to get out of the air, and their little hearts throbbed in their bodies and quickly evacuated.

However, just as they were about to turn around and leave, the sudden change occurred!

There was a neighing sound not far away!

"No! Then, that's our horse!" a spy yelled in horror.

Everyone is together, looking in the direction that the neighing sound came from...

...

Not long ago, Dad and the others passed through a pre-civilized city.

There are huge buildings and intricately curved streets, but no one, a merchant or a traveler can see it.

On that street, you can even see a peculiar billboard shaped like a swimming ring. It seems to be an advertisement for a certain holiday place. About a quarter of it is deeply inserted into the outer wall of a building next to it. , It must be a lively resort area.

The nearest town is only a few dozen kilometers away. Dad and they soon saw the city in the desert from a distance.

The "Sand City" is like a pearl inlaid in the yellow desert crown. There are domed buildings and huge overhead ditches everywhere, which are the aqueducts that lead into the city from the huge mountains in the north of the city.

Several small towns are dotted around the vast land of "Sand City". These small towns are not far away, at most several hundred kilometers.

In a small town closest to the east of the mountain range, there is an underground farm left over hundreds of years ago-No. 15, which relies on the steady flow of water from the mountain to flow into the ground, watering the land, and feeding the town and surrounding areas for more than 2 Million population!

This desert was originally formed by surfacing from the bottom of the lake, but the water has long since faded in the past few hundred years, and new water surfaces have been formed in other low-lying areas, leaving only some strange-shaped underwater rocks, like countless giant pebbles. A rock pillar built up like a building block by the hand of a giant.

These tens of meters high rock pillars are precarious but still standing, standing in pieces on the ground, accompanied by this endless yellow sand and gravel and the howling wind.

The terrain of Shacheng is higher than that of the surrounding areas, and it can be said that it is the least affected piece of land in the surrounding area.

The area of ​​those deserts is now shrinking, because there is fertile soil under the yellow sand, which is accumulated manure from the bottom of the water for millions of years, so many places have been artificially mined and turned into land where food can be grown!

This is also due to the ruling royal family of Shacheng, who has developed and operated here for hundreds of years.

I don't know why, they saw several convoys heading to Shacheng on the road, but they rarely saw people coming out of Shacheng.

This is a very strange thing. Has Shacheng's export trade ceased?

"Huh? Did you see that cloud. The red one is very unique." It was the voice of Wang Chen Liu.

When everyone looked at it, the cloud floated above the northern mountains, which was indeed rare.

"By the way, the 10 people who went to Shacheng earlier, don't know what happened? Let's get in touch."

...

A subordinate awakened the device with spiritual power and got in touch with the thugs in the city.

They have separated 2 waves, and these 2 waves have already chosen their respective footholds~www.ltnovel.com~ You can see the guards in the city, patrolling the streets, and there is nothing else to pay attention to. Up.

Su Xingtian's brows frowned, as if he had noticed something.

"Maybe I'm worried...I think there are more troops in the city than before. The guards of Sand City were only at night until there were so many. Why are there so many people in the daytime?"

Elder Su was thinking about finding out the reason, but he couldn't figure it out at all.

"We can only go to the city! By the way, the place where we are staying is safe, right?" The old man said disapprovingly.

"Don't worry about this, it is the most reliable place I have arranged in the city. If there is a problem with that place, then you can only ask you to live in the emperor's palace... Haha!"

Elder Su made a promise.

"Well, it seems we should pretend now." Raven reminded.

Yes, in this place, they should indeed change their status.

Elder Su took out some disguised props from his suitcase.

This is what he has always prepared on him, and he can use it at any time, and it will become completely unrecognizable immediately, and even the most familiar person cannot recognize himself.
