Lu Ban had never been to the desert before.

In his impression, the desert is not a beautiful natural wonder, but a dangerous, dry and forbidden place where disasters may occur at any time.

When he was a child, he watched documentaries that mentioned that some scientific expedition members went deep into Lop Nur and disappeared, and some movies also mentioned quicksand traps, so Lu Ban has always had a psychological trauma about the desert.

Now, the silver desert is endless. Everywhere you look, there is nothing but desert. There are no buildings, plants, or other people.

There were no birds even in the sky, and the world was completely silent.

In such a world, Lu Ban heard a buzzing sound.

It's like the sound of some metal vibrating due to atmospheric pressure. In layman's terms, it's like the vibration felt when the wings of a fighter jet pass through the sky.

The buzzing sound came from the front, and at the same time, Lu Ban also saw a beam of light shooting straight into the sky.

"What's this?"

He asked the giant wrist beside him.

"It seems that this ruin does contain treasures."

The giant arm did not answer directly, but said something quite excitedly.

"That is the light from the remains of the saint. We have to speed up. When this light appears, other wilderness hunters will definitely see it. In the wilderness, humans are sometimes scarier than monsters."

"The remains of a saint!??"

Lu Ban pretended to be surprised, but he was actually a little excited inside.

I didn't expect that I could directly come into contact with the remains of the saint during this mission. It's really a win.

"After a famous person dies, they often do not decay. Instead, they continue to walk on the earth for some reason. We who live in the wilderness know very well that ruins with the remains of saints usually contain very precious treasures."

Yan Xin on the side explained.

"A famous one?"

Lu Ban heard a word he had never heard of before and became interested.

"Haha, that's an existence we can't reach, and you don't need to pay attention to it. You just need to know that those who are famous are saints. There is a saying circulating in the wilderness that below the saints, everyone is an ant. Those guys can crush you to death just as easily as crushing an ant."

There was excitement flashing in the giant's eyes.

"Then why are you still so excited? Logically, shouldn't we be hiding from them?"

Lu Ban was curious again.

"Dead saints are different from living saints. Most dead saints act according to a certain special pattern. As long as we know their names, we can avoid danger to a certain extent."

Yanxin explained again.

"Also, we have obtained the names of the saints stationed here on our treasure map. It seems that they have done a lot of research beforehand."

Giant Wrist patted the map on his chest.

"What is his name?"

Lu Ban vaguely felt that this world had some special requirements for names. Hunters in the wilderness did not use names but nicknames, and saints were all famous. Although they did not have the power to control others once their real names were known like in some novels, perhaps in the wilderness, names were even more important than life.

After all, named saints can still move in the form of their remains even after death and still possess powerful powers, while many people are humble beings like ants even when they are alive.

"Achilles."

Lu Ban was stunned.

He didn't expect to hear this name from someone in a foreign land. Although the pronunciation was a little different, Lu Ban was very clear that the name mentioned by the giant arm was the name that was circulated in the world where Lu Ban was.

Hero of the Trojan War, legendary warrior.

Are there such legends in foreign lands?

"What's that name?"

Xia from the side asked. She also seemed a little curious. After all, it involved a high-level concept like saint. For a mage, understanding the gods and supernatural powers from foreign lands was also part of the learning process.

"I don't know. The names of the famous ones are all very strange. But this drawing records that this saint is a very powerful and warlike guy."

The giant wrist shook his head.

"These saints, where do they get their names from?"

Lu Ban developed a strong curiosity.

Just because he is called Achilles, does that mean he really has extraordinary fighting power and is brave and good at fighting?

If his name is Einstein, does that mean he is extremely smart and intelligent?

Lu Ban thought that he could change his name to Wudi, maybe he could stop time.

"I'm not sure. When the famous ones are alive, no one knows what their names are. Only after they die can they be discovered. No one knows where their names come from. Maybe it's from the ruins. There was a rumor in the past that an ordinary wasteland hunter entered the ruins, found a treasure and became a saint. That's what everyone said."

Giant Wrist was also very interested in these things, but to him, saints were too far away and could only be adventure stories told around the campfire.

"That's why ruins in the wilderness are so desirable."

Yanxin smiled.

"More importantly, becoming a saint can alleviate the symptoms of crystal core disease. For people like us, it is difficult to live to the age of 25, but a saint can live for decades, or even hundreds of years."

For a moment, everyone fell silent.

The few of them quickened their pace, as if they wanted to reach the ruins before anyone else discovered them.

However, the light was still some distance away from them. It was not until dusk that Lu Ban saw something unique among the vast desert.

It was an abandoned city. The buildings had long collapsed, and the broken walls and ruins had weathered. Only the prosperous appearance could be vaguely recognized.

The city was huge. The entire horizon that Lu Ban saw was occupied by the city. He roughly estimated that it was at least the size of an urban area in Jiangcheng. For the world hundreds of years after the apocalypse, it was rare to be able to preserve such a large urban area.

The buzzing sound and the light had long disappeared, but Lu Ban knew very well that the light radiated at least several hundred kilometers around. It was a bit naive to expect that they were the only team to handle such a large area.

Therefore, it is imperative to enter the ruins as early as possible and race against time.

Riding camels into the ruins, everyone had no time to appreciate the style of the old era. Giant Wrist took out the blueprint in his arms and guided the team forward.

The sky darkened and the stars rose, illuminating the world.

Without lighting torches, the men placed their camels under a wall that looked relatively solid, packed their luggage, and prepared to explore the ruins further.

Lu Ban discovered that the technological level in the wasteland seemed to have regressed to a very backward level. Of course, it might also be because of the emergence of the supernatural power of Crystal Core Disease, so people were not paying attention to the development of science and technology.

The five-man team had no hot weapons and almost no bows and arrows. They used torches to explore the city and calculated time by looking at the position of the sun and stars. There was almost no trace of modern civilization on these people.

In the darkness, as soon as they left the camels, they saw a fire appearing in a corner of the city.

It must be another wilderness hunter.
