"The people outside in those large convoys don’t really worry about the sand bandits, because the greatest danger here isn’t the sand bandits."
"Are you talking about the night?"
Hu Lushou nodded: "The Western Desert has a big problem, sandstorms. Even during the day in the sandstorms, abnormal bodies can appear; the most common of them are things called sand ants. Those things can’t be killed off, even the interstellar army has to hide from them, and in any open wilderness, abnormal bodies are likely to appear, trying to avoid the Dark Mark is very difficult. Previously, some people managed to find the right direction and escaped from the unmapped territory, they saw some kind of terrifying atmospheric creature, swallowing people and vehicles into the sky..."
As he spoke more and more intensely, he said with an air of seriousness to Lin Xian: "Furthermore, I know of intelligence that a Taboo Item has appeared in the unmapped territory!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Xian, KIKI, and the others exclaimed in surprise. For more chapters visit novᴇlfire.net
"Yes." Hu Lushou said in a mysterious tone: "Because of this matter, the Federation’s Angel Plan sent people over, and there’s another organization dedicated to studying Taboo Items, called... Holy Revelation, which has also appeared on the Akse side, their movements are mysterious!"
"Holy Revelation? I’ve heard of this name." Monica said with her arms crossed: "It’s a faction that split from the Angel Plan. It’s part of the Descent Faction, but this organization is quite mysterious, and I haven’t heard much about it."
Lin Xian nodded: "I’ve heard of it too."
Hu Lushou then said: "That’s why I say the sand bandits aren’t the biggest problem. Now at night, whether you have the Dark Mark or not, you absolutely can’t move. Even the most notorious sand bandits have to obediently hide underground."
Lin Xian looked at Ning Jing, their eyes met, in their view, this information was more important than the sand bandits.
"It seems that the unmapped territory from Akse to Quan City is our biggest trouble." Ning Jing said.
"Boss Hu, what are the specifics about these sand ants?" Lin Xian asked Hu Lushou.
"They eat people." At this time, Sun Chang, who had been silent, suddenly spoke: "When sand ants pass by, the wind sweeps and devours, you can only hide in the vehicle, and it must be tightly protected. Once they get inside, there will be no remains."
"Exactly, exactly!" Hu Lushou nodded vigorously: "That’s not the scariest thing, deep in the unmapped territory, there are many abnormal bodies you can’t imagine, scarier than the ones we encountered at Hengshan Pass by a hundred and twenty times!!!"
Lin Xian let out a long breath and looked at Hu Lushou: "Thank you for the information, Boss Hu. Tell me, how do you want me to help you?"
Seeing Lin Xian satisfied, Hu Lushou immediately posed a difficult expression and said: "Now here, I’m receiving a lot of Blood Essence every day. Every three days, the Sand Scorpion Gang and the Red Vulture Group come to collect a share of the toll. If I leave, these small convoys will..."
Lin Xian raised his hand to stop him: "Cut the useless talk, you need to save your own life now."
Hu Lushou, who was about to get sentimental, chuckled awkwardly: "Nothing else, Captain Lin, I’m in a difficult situation here. Even though I only took a twenty percent cut, if I leave, those bandits will absolutely won’t let me go, they would kill me. So I’ve contacted several convoys, wanting to..."
"Want to team up with them and then retreat together?" KIKI laughed.
"Oh, it’s not that simple." Monica said politely at this time: "We’ve just found out that your plan has been exposed. Now there are at least three sand bandit factions in the bars outside waiting for you, even if the whole city runs away, they won’t let you escape."
"Who told you to be so wealthy?" Qian Deli couldn’t help but comment, looking at the room full of rare items and those boxes of Blood Essence: "You’re quite talented, taking on such risky work."
"Captain Lin, save me!"
The crowd barely had time to react as Hu Lushou fell to his knees again, even Sun Chang couldn’t stand it and closed her eyes, saying
"Captain Lin, what they want is information on the sand bandits."
Hu Lushou stopped in the middle of crying and looked up at Lin Xian: "Lin... Captain Lin, these sand bandit groups add up to at least five or six hundred people, heavily armed. You can’t possibly stand against them."
Based on Hu Lushou’s understanding of Lin Xian, one Infinity, even with heavy artillery and superpower experts, has only thirty people in total, how to fight against those bandits?
Lin Xian said seriously: "You must have investigated the information on those campsites of the sand bandits who come to charge toll fees, right?"
"What... what do you want to do? Aren’t you afraid these bandits will band together..." Hu Lushou asked with an inexplicable expression.
Lin Xian shook his head, looking at Hu Lushou with earnestness:
"I’m afraid they’ll run away."
