Scavenging Notes: I am the Lucky Star of the End Times

Xie Yuan observed the bottom of the cave for a while, then touched the walls around it. The walls were very smooth and tough, and it was difficult to insert a dagger or a knife into them.

Even if the high-energy knife enhanced by nuclear crystal can barely penetrate, the cave wall is so smooth that it is very difficult to use the soles of shoes to gain leverage.

It seems that it will be difficult to climb back to the surface of the sand layer by the original route.

Xie Yuan looked at the sand layer on the top of the cave again. The sand layer was suspended at the top, with no signs of falling, as if it was blocked outside by some strange force or barrier.

I'm afraid that even if I climb to the top, it won't be easy to get out.

Xie Yuan and Xu Sansan looked at each other, and both were obviously confused about the sand layer on the top of the cave.

Xie Yuan whispered:

"Perhaps it is the energy of the isolation system, but the cave wall is too smooth and I can't climb up. I'm afraid it will be difficult to investigate at close range."

Xu Sansan nodded. Isolation system. It turns out that there is such a strange substance...

"Everyone drink some water and rest for a while!"

Since it was so cool here, Xie Yuan decided to take a break to replenish supplies.

Xu Sansan understood and quickly took off a necklace from his neck. The pendant hanging on the necklace was the most important magic weapon on this trip, a dark blue water-based nuclear crystal.

Xie Yuan took out the water bag he had prepared in advance from his waist, took off the water core crystal on the necklace, threw it into the water bag, and then closed the lid to seal it.

After 1 minute, the lid was opened and the water bag was filled with clean water.

While everyone was not paying attention, he sprinkled some pollution-free high-purity salt crystal powder into the water, distributed water to everyone, and reminded them:

"Although this underground river is under the desert, we cannot be sure whether it is polluted, so everyone must not use it without permission."

Everyone nodded and drank the water, shocked that the water produced by the water core crystal was so magical that it not only quenched thirst but also restored physical strength instantly!

Five minutes later, Xie Yuan looked at the time and it was almost 5 o'clock.

"Legend has it that the Desert Flower grows in the heart of the Lost Desert. When I fell just now, I carefully observed the direction. The direction of this underground river is heading towards the center of the Lost Desert.

You may have noticed that although this cave is damp, it does not feel stuffy, which means that the air is circulating and there is an exit in the cave, and this exit is likely to be downstream of the underground river. "

Xie Yuan quickly shared his analysis with everyone, and everyone nodded.

However, before getting up and leaving, the Quartet team still had an important task to complete -

That is to test the corpses of the strange beasts in this cave one by one!

Adhering to the principle of "if you see it, you must test it, and if you test it, you must take it away", everyone quickly dispersed.

After 10 minutes, the corpse-touching activity quickly came to an end with the warning sound of "Ding! Severe pollution!" from the light computer.

All the corpses not only had no nuclear crystals, but were also heavily contaminated.

Hey!

This result was inevitably a bit of a blow to the quartet team, which had been going smoothly and had reaped great rewards in several missions.

Xie Yuan's voice sounded at the right time:

“The Lost Desert is a highly polluted area, and most of the exotic animals here have been severely polluted for a long time. The purpose of our trip, in addition to the fruit of the Desert Flower, is to obtain the Fire Core Crystals that are abundant in the Lost Desert.

These fire core crystals are commonly found in the exotic beasts that have lived in the desert for a long time, so after we get out successfully, I believe everyone will be able to gain something!"

The reason why Xie Yuan proposed to come to the Lost Desert, in addition to helping the Quartet team obtain high rewards, was another important purpose, which was to find enough fire nuclear crystals for Xu Sansan so that she could successfully survive the windy season and snowy season.

The 15 soybean-sized fire nuclear crystals that were accidentally obtained when digging up the bronze mask have already been used up by Xu Sansan in City No. 505 to prevent other recruited teams from stealing the revolutionary fruits of their Quartet Team.

If Xu Sansan, a non-genetically modified person, wants to be able to move freely in the middle and late windy season and the snowy season, she must have enough fire energy to maintain her body temperature, otherwise she can only stay by the fire or in a temporary shelter.

It has to be said that Xie Yuan is worthy of being the captain for many years. With just a few words, he painted a big picture for everyone.

The members of the Quartet Team said that the pancake tasted really good and that their team was exactly what they needed the rare nuclear crystal!

So everyone quickly perked up and followed the previous formation, with Xie Yuan leading the way and Hu Ba following the rear. They moved quickly in the cave, following the direction of the underground river.

Xu Sansan used the light brain's lighting function to look at the various corpses and shells of strange animals piled up beside the stone cave, and sighed silently in his heart:

Is this mutant centipede so edible?

The amount of corpses and bones in here is probably enough for it to eat for two lifetimes!

Could it be that it really is a centipede monster that has lived for more than a thousand years, so it eats so much food?

While Xu Sansan was complaining, he was pulled forward by the anti-getting-lost chain and quickly followed behind Xie Yuan.

After 20 minutes, I suddenly felt a warm current coming towards me!

Xie Yuan immediately slowed down and gestured to everyone, and Xu Sansan and Qin Ergou immediately turned off the lights.

It looks like we're reaching the exit.

The crowd slowly moved forward along the hot current, and soon, at the end of the underground river, they saw a stone wall made up of countless rocks.

The rocks are big and small, standing in an orderly manner in front of everyone.

The stone wall is very high, estimated to be a hundred meters high. There are tiny cracks at the top of the wall, and streams of heat are seeping into the cave through the cracks.

Xie Yuan untied the chain around his waist and temporarily handed Xu Sansan, who was not at an advantage in speed, to Yu Ge, while he himself took the lead in climbing up the stone wall in a few seconds.

A few seconds later, Xie Yuan quickly reached the top of the stone wall and began to explore carefully along the top of the cave.

The stones at the top are relatively small, and the number of cracks between them is increasing.

There are many long and thin fibers in the cracks of the rocks, like the roots of some plants.

Xie Yuan raised his hand, grasped a handful of roots in front of him, and pushed them hard with his fingers.

It is dry but extremely resilient. It must be some kind of drought-resistant plant growing in the desert.

It seems that there is a desert above our heads!

Just as he was thinking and coming to a conclusion, the roots of the plant in his hand suddenly moved. Then, with a "whoosh", as if they had grown legs, they quickly shrank and fled to the surface of the rock.

Xie Yuan frowned and subconsciously tightened his grip. At the moment when the root was about to slip away, he ruthlessly grabbed it in his hand.

Time suddenly stood still for a moment.

The next second, the roots in Xie Yuan's hands seemed to have taken some powerful pills. They suddenly gathered all their strength and tried hard to retract towards the rock layer above their heads.

Xie Yuan pursed his lips, and the muscles in his right arm immediately tensed up, feeling the power transmitted from the roots in his hand:

There are strange animals that look like plants in this mysterious desert? !

Xie Yuan gritted his teeth, aroused by the sudden huge force and his desire to win.

Just after he and the root in his hand were in a stalemate for 5 seconds, there was a loud "clang"!

A large rock above his head was actually lifted up by this huge force. As the rock rolled aside, the root in Xie Yuan's hand made a "crackling" sound, and the root was torn off.

Then, a pair of round, watery eyes with the KISS ME big eyes special effect, with countless layers of thick "false" eyelashes, were blinking at Xie Yuan's handsome face, which was suddenly a little dazed.

He blinked his big eyes hesitantly, shrugged his nostrils and sniffed, while chewing the food in his mouth very calmly.

It glanced at the remaining half of the root in Xie Yuan's hand, hesitated for 1 second, and finally raised its proud chin and turned its long head away with disdain.

At this moment, the members of the Sifang team who were standing in the cave and waiting anxiously heard the noise just now and felt the heat wave that instantly hit them. They thought that Xie Yuan had successfully opened the exit to the desert, so they quickly climbed up with nimble hands and feet.

Everyone rushed to the cave entrance and just poked their heads out -

Including Xie Yuan, there were a total of 7 people, 14 eyes, who once again met the big eyes of Kazilan who suddenly turned back beside the rock.

Big Eyes heard the noise, turned its head, glanced at the seven people very calmly, glanced at them with great disdain, then raised its proud chin again and turned its long head away.

"Did it just give me a cold look?"

The Marshal asked Qin Ergou.

Qin Ergou wanted to rub his eyes, but found that he couldn't because of the protective mask, so he could only blink hard:

"Does it have whites of its eyes? I can't quite tell!"

Xu Sansan looked at the two towering "peaks" behind this extremely proud head under the starlight, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart:

“What a big camel!”
