Fatal Shot

Chapter 684: A Timid Elite-Grade Lizard

An endless desert, as the sky is filled with yellow sand blown up by the wind.

There were only some scattered trees that had no leaves at all on their branches, which looked like they lost their lives, and some sharp grass which was tight together, stubbornly surviving.

In front of a huge circular sand dune, a level-65 elite-grade “Desert Tailed Lizard” was carefully crouching in the skull of a weathered, unknown large animal. It had a body less than half a meter in size covered with sand-colored scales.

Although its grade was elite, being at the bottom of the hierarchy in this area meant that it also had to be careful at all times of the higher-grade predators.

Suddenly, however, its head moved.

It could hear a sound a kilometer away with its sensitive hearing as if it felt something was moving at high speed from under the sand dunes next to it.

But it first shrank its body again, ensuring that it was more stealth in its hiding.

Then, this level 65 elite-grade creature carefully peeked out of the skull using its eyes, which evolved after several hundreds of years, to be able to see at an extremely far distance.

A few hundred meters away, beneath the dunes, were two huge and strange objects moving rapidly, with a huge plume of dust curling up behind them.

It was a lot bigger, though it was much smaller than the overlords of this small area, the level-70 Sand Whale Commander.

But compared to its size, it was still a dozen times larger than it.

However, why did it seem that it had never seen such a thing, was it an alien invader? Did it want to fight for territory with the Sand Whale?

“Hiss! ”

The desert tailed lizard suddenly trembled, and then its body suddenly retracted back into the skull.

“Bang! ”

The skull that it was hiding in was suddenly hit by something that was hot and as big as a rock.

Immediately after, this object blew open, and some scalding liquid splashed onto the weathered skull where it was hiding. After that, it led to the whole skull burning up, billowing black smoke.

“Hiss, hiss! ”

The desert tailed lizard jumped like a cat that had its tail trampled, as there was an angry and shocked cry from its mouth.

Although it had almost no guys, as a level-65 elite-grade creature, its character was not lacking violence.

In the case of its hard-to-find hiding place being destroyed, its anger led it to decide that it would rush out immediately, and then…

First, scare the intruders, and then find the right time to escape!

“Bang!”

However, just as it rushed out, the hot “stone” from before, fiercely hit it on its head.

“-8678!”

The hard scales of its head were smashed open by this stone, as flesh and blood were flying everywhere, even its head was so smashed that it became a little squishy.

“Bang! ”

And before it could react, another of that “stone” hit its stomach.

“-4578!”

It hurt.

It was smashed twice in a row, and it hurt so much.

It did not feel so good, and it was definitely better not to mess with big things.

“Whoosh! ”

Quickly turned to the ground, the desert tailed lizard wanted to drill into the sand to escape.

“Bang!”

“-12354!”

However, just when it had drilled most of its body into the sand, the third shot of the armor-piercing bullet had hit its body just as accurately.

The desert tailed lizard suddenly regretted greatly. It should have known to run away from the start.

Sure enough, those two giant monsters were far more powerful than their own.

“Level 65, 25,000 blood and the defense was already considered high for an elite-grade monster. They encountered monsters along the way had become more and more difficult to deal with!”

“But the loots that burst out are not bad! Although it was only an elite-grade piece of equipment, its properties were comparable to a level 50 excellent equipment. However, its level requirements were too high, and we are unable to use this at all for the next few months!”

The “big monster” stopped next to the carcass of the desert tailed lizard after a few dozen seconds.

Carrying the golden alloy sword back, Boss Meng jumped out of the car with great excitement as he picked up the pair of warrior arms guards that were burst out from this desert tailed lizard, but he lost interest after reading its properties.

“How far is the journey ahead?”

Another modified “land rover” SUV, which used special tires for sand, was parked next to it. Feng Luo, from the open top of the vehicle with his Wings of Death, asked Mu Wu who had just opened the map on his computer terminal.

“There’s probably about a hundred kilometers left, and hopefully there will not be too many problems on the road. Let us enter the target area before the night. There are more monsters in the Death Desert at night as compared to the day!”

Mu Wu looked up at that fiery sun above his head.

The two “big monster” SUVs were transporting the group of people from Nightless City and Feng Luo.

And this location that they were at was the withered desert that Feng Luo had been to once, which was beside the Stormwind City.

It also belonged to the periphery of a dangerous area close to the depths of the withered desert, which was the most inaccessible to humans.

Here, the monster’s base level had reached level 65, so ordinary players could not even deal with an elite-grade monster here. Even Feng Luo had to use three shots before he finally triggered the effect of his Lethal talent to kill.

And in the deepest part of the withered desert, the monsters are said to have levels above level-70, and the few people(NPC) who entered did not survive. So, in the places deep in the withered desert, there was another name for it, Death Desert.

Even players in non-mission situations would hardly enter this area to seek death.

It was just that they had a mission to do it incidentally.

The mission to escort the brain worm from the ruins required them to go to an underground research laboratory under the jungle of death.

However, there was no jungle of death.

Because the so-called jungle of death had become the death desert today!

The initial battle with the Zergs was clearly so fierce that, with the use of devastating weapons, this jungle, which was once the largest on the entire continent, was now almost entirely a desert except for a few parts.

The only thing that was passed down was its “death” name, which symbolized danger.

“This task is really difficult to do, the monsters along the way are really a little too many, mainly needing to catch up on the journey requires three-plus days, we even ruined 2 SUVs so far!”

“We should have known to choose to enter from the other side, the position that was closer to the forest!”

Although Jiao Zong was as thin as a monkey, its energy robes on its body could adjust his temperature, but his body at this time was still filled with sweat.

Because there were monsters everywhere on the road, they must open the window, so even if the air conditioning was on, the temperature inside the car was really not low.

“That side is a territory of the non-governmental armed forces and is completely hostile to the federal government. Although its strength is far less than the rebel army, it is definitely not an army that our small team can dare to challenge!”

“Besides, the monster levels in the middle of the jungle at that end is also very high, which is inferior to this area, and also the density of the area is greater, it’s more secure to choose to take the desert path!”

“What’s more, we did not waste the previous few days. Everyone did train their levels.”

Thorn Rose was sitting in the driving position of the opposite SUV. She was holding the wheel plate in one hand and resting her desert-colored bronze-skinned arm on the window.

This time after this update, the experience of levels 45 to 50 had been adjusted, perhaps taking into account the increased PK frequency after the player had reached full levels.

If it was full and it dropped, they would only need half of its initial experience to regain the levels.

This had also allowed the group of people to return to level 50, being capable of using Level 50 equipment and restoring full combat effectiveness.

Otherwise, this journey would become more difficult.

“And, Brother Jiao, Brother Meng. On this road, you have also created a lot of self-created skills in the battle too, which is also a good reward.”

Little Snow, who was sitting at the back, suddenly smiled while covering her mouth.

“Self-created skills, this is totally useless!”

It was better not to mention that. The moment Little Snow mentioned it, Jiao Zong screamed as if he was a cat with its tail stepped on.
