Chapter 404: Chapter 181: Legends of Gods and Ghosts_2

Above the Lion King, there is Dragon Level!

To promote methodically, one needs to breach dozens of Divine Ruins, but if a person single-handedly conquers a major Divine Ruin that appears every ten years, they’ll be promoted to Dragon directly.

However, generally no one does that, because they all want to live.

About nine minutes later, the main body of the sandstorm passed. Although the wind above was still blowing, it was not as strong as before.

"Queen, open the tunnel entrance, I’m going up!"

Lin Baici wanted to check how many survivors there were.

"Shall we wait a bit longer?"

The Golden Scorpion Queen thought it would be safer.

"No need, that creature should be gone!"

Lin Baici hadn’t recalled the Muscle Buddha, but there was also no feedback from battle, which indicated that although the attacking creature was strong, it was also cautious and didn’t want to provoke enemies lightly.

The Golden Scorpion Queen opened the tunnel entrance.

As Lin Baici was about to jump out, the Queen, striding on her scorpion legs, came over, grabbed Lin Baici, threw him onto her back, and began to climb up the walls of the sand tunnel.

"You can hold onto my hair!"

The Golden Scorpion Queen suggested.

"..."

Lin Baici looked at the Queen’s blond hair, wanting to ask, Are you a masochist?

Liking having your hair pulled from behind?

Lin Baici didn’t want to do it, planning to hold onto the Golden Scorpion Queen’s shoulders, but she turned her head and gave him a look.

What’s the matter?

Are you looking forward to it?

Then I won’t be polite!

Lin Baici grabbed a handful of the Golden Scorpion Queen’s hair.

On the ground, the sandstorm continued to blow, but it had lessened significantly, with visibility reaching about seven or eight meters.

Everyone lay on the ground, half or even their whole bodies buried in the sand, a consequence of the sand brought by the storm.

Lin Baici rushed to the closest man, grabbed his leg, and yanked him out of the sand.

"Cough, cough!"

The man coughed, gasping for air.

He had almost suffocated just before.

Lin Baici began the rescue.

Although the sandstorm lasted only about ten minutes, the pressure it brought was immense, making everyone feel as if a day was as long as a year, as if they had walked through hell.

By the time five minutes passed and the sandstorm had completely dissipated, Lin Baici had almost dug everyone out.

"Everyone, help check if there are still people buried in the sand!"

Lin Baici shouted.

Now, the number of survivors didn’t match the group that followed him before; more than twenty were missing, probably swept away by the sandstorm.

As for whether the attacking creature killed anyone, Lin Baici could no longer tell.

The traces of murder would have been destroyed by the sandstorm.

"Baici, that building is still there!"

Gu Qingqiu pointed to the west where, perhaps due to the wind, the black shadow on the horizon looked even clearer.

"Rest for five minutes, then set out!"

Lin Baici didn’t want to waste time. Aside from that creature, who knew what dangers lurked in this desert?

What if another sandstorm hit?

Lin Baici recalled the tank, and as for other supplies, he didn’t bother to pick them up.

After all, there were still some in the Black Tripod Bowl, enough to eat.

"Ptooey, ptooey."

Fei Xiao kept spitting out the sand in his mouth as he walked over: "Baici, what’s your take? Was this desert caused by some Taboo things?"

After all, he was the head of the ninth division at the Haijing Security Bureau; he couldn’t call Lin Baici ’God Lin’ like the others, although this young man was indeed formidable.

With that thought, Fei Xiao glanced at the Golden Scorpion Queen.

Damn it!

To be so handsome that even monsters willingly serve as your mount, is there no justice in the world?

Envy!

Utter envy!

"I don’t know!"

Lin Baici shook his head.

Everyone was covered in dust, and even beautiful women like Hua Yue Yu and Jin Ying looked disheveled, with only the Golden Scorpion Queen remaining heroic in appearance.

It was just a pity that only her upper body was visible.

"Let’s set off early!"

Fei Xiao proposed, equally unwilling to wait any longer. Each additional second spent there added to the danger.

"Alright!"

Just as Lin Baici was about to summon everyone, a man sitting and resting on the sand suddenly sank down, his entire body plunging into the sand.

Whoooosh!

"Be careful, monster attack!"

Lin Baici shouted a warning.

Everyone was startled and quickly rose to their feet, rushing toward Lin Baici. During this process, people kept sinking into the sand.

"Is it quicksand?"

Fang Tianhua looked at the spot where a man had disappeared, it didn’t quite look like it.

Lin Baici threw out the Dragon Tooth.

Whizz!

The Bronze Sword plunged into the sand.

The Muscle Buddha charged forward with great strides. Because the ground was sandy and it was heavy, each of its steps would sink deep into the sand.

Lin Baici held a pine torch, focusing on the ground beneath him.

"It’s Pharaoh’s Demon Scorpion army!"

The Golden Scorpion Queen sensed the presence of her kin.

"How many are there? Stronger than you?"

Lin Baici inquired.

"There’s a significant number, equal to my servants, but in my presence, they’re all ants!"

The Golden Scorpion Queen was confident.

The Muscle Buddha reached the position of the Bronze Sword, crouched on the ground, and slammed a fist into the sand.

Boom!

By the time the Muscle Buddha pulled its hand out, its five thick fingers were clutching a black scorpion the size of an adult, with Dragon Tooth embedded in its body and black blood oozing out.

Squeak!

The Demon Scorpion shrieked, its venomous, sharp tail stabbing towards the Muscle Buddha.

The Muscle Buddha pulled out the Bronze Sword and, with a smooth move, slashed.

Swipe!

The tail of the Demon Scorpion was cut off, blood splattering.

Whooooosh! Whooooosh!

Over a hundred Demon Scorpions emerged from underground, attacking the people.

The Muscle Buddha used the corpse of the Demon Scorpion in its hand as ammunition, hurling it at a Demon Scorpion lunging towards Lin Baici.

"Lord Lin, save us!"
