However, after careful consideration, Jiang An did not choose to launch a direct attack rashly.
Instead, she decisively decided to adopt a strategy of dispersing and attacking to deal with the current situation.
In this way, she and the little turtle beside her will have a greater chance of winning by working together, and can ensure that all enemies are completely wiped out.
After all, she knew far too little about the inner workings of this mysterious gathering place, and no one could be sure whether an even more terrifying and powerful adversary was lurking within.
The little turtle and her brief observation range only covered a tiny fraction of this gathering place.
Time slipped by unnoticed, and before we knew it, the last faint glimmer of light on the horizon had completely disappeared.
The surroundings were pitch black and silent under the cover of night, and no dwarves returning from their outings were seen stepping into this settlement.
After confirming that the surrounding environment was safe, Jiang An quickly climbed down from the tree where he was hiding, his movements swift and agile.
Immediately afterwards, she rushed to the campsite she had carefully selected for the night.
The campsite was unusually small and cramped, as if it had been compressed to its limit.
This time, Jiang An had to reluctantly give up the tent that had brought her a comfortable sleep experience.
After all, in such a cramped environment, it was practically impossible to set up that tent.
Jiang An could only use other, more convenient methods to get through the long night.
After some effort, she finally managed to clean up the campsite and lay down a thin layer of cushions.
Jiang An and the little turtle sat on the cushion, gently stroking its shell. In his mind, he whispered to it, "Little turtle, the location we chose for this camp is not very good! It's too close to the gathering place of those dwarves. If something unexpected happens, it will be a big problem! So, for safety's sake, we must take turns keeping watch tonight."
Jiang An did not say these words aloud, but instead silently communicated with the little turtle in his mind.
The reason is actually very simple and clear—at this moment, night has already enveloped the earth, and all around is pitch black and silent.
In the oasis at night, apart from the occasional rustling of leaves in the breeze and the low chirping of unknown insects in the distance, there was almost no other noise.
Moreover, because their location was too close to the settlement of those dwarves, Jiang An was filled with worry and vigilance.
She knew that almost all the dwarves had gathered together in this settlement.
Roughly estimated, there are probably as many as three hundred people!
Not to mention the dwarves who may be hiding in the shadows and have not yet shown themselves.
If they were to discover our presence, the consequences would be dire. These dwarves harbor deep hostility and hatred towards outside players.
Once discovered, they will undoubtedly swarm to them without hesitation.
At that time, Jiang An, along with a little turtle, will face a terrifying situation that even a fool could imagine.
When Jiang An got to this point, he paused for a moment, as if he was thinking about how to express his thoughts next.
Then, he thought to himself, "How about this, you take the first half of the night shift, and I'll take the second half!"
There's a reason for this arrangement.
Generally speaking, people tend to sleep more lightly in the first half of the night and are easily awakened by external noises.
Therefore, to prevent the little turtle from accidentally falling asleep while on night duty, it is made to guard the first half of the night.
As for the second half of the night, that's when people sleep the deepest and most soundly. If you put the little turtle on night duty during that time, it might accidentally drift off to sleep.
It would be more appropriate for Jiang An to take charge of the second half of the night himself.
Just then, the little turtle's innocent voice rang in Jiang An's mind: "Okay, Mom, whatever you say, I'll do it!"
Hearing the little turtle's well-behaved and sensible answer, Jiang An felt very gratified.
Immediately afterwards, she solemnly instructed him in her mind: "Honey, remember, you must not doze off or slack off while on night duty. If any special situation arises, you must not take matters into your own hands. You must wake me up immediately, understand?"
"Don't worry, Mom, I know, I'll be careful!" Little Turtle replied confidently to Jiang An.
After receiving an affirmative answer from the little turtle, Jiang An finally felt a little relieved.
Then she continued tidying up the place where she was going to sleep.
She deftly took out a sleeping bag from her storage ring, just big enough for one person, gently unzipped it, and laid it flat on the prepared mat.
During the daytime, the temperature in this instance is quite pleasant and comfortable for players.
However, once night falls, the temperature drops sharply, becoming extremely cold, which is not so friendly to players inside.
In desert regions, the temperature difference between day and night is extreme, and even in oases, there is a significant temperature difference.
Whenever possible, Jiang An always tries her best to treat herself well.
After all, life is already full of dangers. If we make ourselves suffer when we can still do our best, wouldn't that be incredibly foolish?
Therefore, whenever there is an opportunity to improve his own situation, Jiang An will always take action without hesitation.
In no time, the sleeping area was tidied up.
Jiang An didn't go to sleep immediately, but instead washed up quickly first.
After brushing my face and teeth, I started washing my feet.
You should know that Jiang An had been traveling non-stop all day.
Despite wearing those magical flying cloud boots, the long walk still inevitably left her feeling exhausted.
Even worse, due to constant sweating, the sweat had already accumulated inside the boots.
At that moment, the instant Jiang An took off his shoes, a strong, pungent, sour stench instantly filled the air and assaulted his nostrils.
She took off her socks again; they were smelly, and she didn't want to put them back in her storage ring and pollute the air inside.
I dug a hole on the spot and buried the socks directly in the sand. Instantly, the surrounding smelled better.
