"Sorry," the 'Sandbox Painter' said, "Let's do as Li Changzhou said: ask for information first before taking action on the next tribe."
"So annoying," the 'Street Dancer' muttered, "But I might still need his help later, so let's go with that."
"I'll send some more people to look for the waterfall," 'Drawing Her Own Book' took out a pressure pen and a digital screen.
With a few swishes, her own scantily clad figure, as if stepping out of a drawing, flew out of the digital screen page by page, drifting away like paper.
"Let's continue," ten players advanced towards the next tribe.
"Do not laugh at those drunk on the battlefield; how many return from the ancient wars."
"Through battles in the yellow sand with golden armor on, not ceasing until Loulan is captured."
Rings of poetry flowed from the 'Poet's' mouth, imbuing 'Power Brother'.
'Power Brother' held a ten-meter-long alloy forged pole, just thick enough to embrace.
With a gentle wave, sand creatures flew out like dumplings; with a casual smack, people were ground into mush.
He raised his arms and spun the alloy pole like a brush, becoming a ten-meter-wide circular meat grinder; countless flesh and bones seemed twisted but were actually smashed to bits.
"Every time Power Brother makes a move, I just don't feel like joining in," the 'Daoist' stood far away.
"Amitabha, I only brought one set of clothes," the 'Monk' stood beside him.
"Too crude, much too crude," the 'Martial Arts Enthusiast' stood next to the two.
Normally the four of them should have acted together, with the remaining six on guard, preserving "Abilities", but Power Brother's fighting style prevented them from joining in.
"Changzhou sent word, told us to keep an eye out for something called 'Desert Waterfall', and gather any myths and legends of this planet from the locals," one of the players on guard, 'Superstitious', walked over.
"Power Brother, stop killing, leave some alive!" the 'Daoist' shouted at the battlefield.
"Bang!" Power Brother smashed a giant Sha Tuo Beast into pulp, the last few Sand People flattened along with it.
"What did you say?" Power Brother cleaned his blood-soaked, fleshy alloy pole in the sand.
"Why is there not even a shadow in this desert?"
"It's normal for deserts to be uninhabited. Sigh, I still wanted to see what aliens look like and how they live."
"We're in the information-gathering phase now; in 7 days when everyone gathers, you can see whatever you want." Thıs content belongs to 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡•𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮•𝕟𝕖𝕥
They still hadn't found anyone.
Smoke rose from the ground, the earth walked out.
Southeastern line, Li Changzhou's group of eight.
'Soda Crackers' caught all the sand thieves, tied them with rope, and dragged them away with Sha Tuo Beasts.
They each had 'surfing sandboards' on their feet, looking less like prisoners and more like they were surfing.
On the Sha Tuo Beasts' backs were shabby dwellings made of stones and fabric.
Yang Qinglan extracted 'information' from all the Sand People, reading through each item, collecting as much intelligence as possible.
"Bro," Li Qianxia flipped casually through one, "Could 'The King of Wind and Light' and 'The Lord of Radiance' be connected?"
"It'd be great if there were a connection, better yet, if they were the same person," Li Changzhou put down one item and picked up another.
"If they are the same person, then we're in danger— Oh! I get it!" Li Qianxia caught on, "If they really are the same person, it means 'The King of Wind and Light' is dead, but if not, 'The King of Wind and Light' might still be alive!"
"You are indeed my most adorable sister," Li Changzhou praised his family member, "But even if they're not the same person, they're probably dead."
"Why would you say that?" Yang Qinglan looked up at him.
"According to Qing Shui, this planet was transformed from the body of 'The King of Wind and Light'; if the legends are true, then he's most likely dead." He repeated his own introduction to the Divine Body.
They both nodded, thinking it possible.
Turquoise Pool, half-reclining with a charming face, leaned close to Li Changzhou and whispered in his ear, "What is 'The Lord of Radiance'?"
"Keep away from me is 'The Lord of Radiance'? Such a strange thing."
