They continued walking forward until noon, when Lu Yuan raised his hand and waved, and everyone stopped.
Everyone started cooking. Lunch was still smoked meat, served with some dried vegetables in a soup.
The wind was very strong here, so a pressure cooker was necessary. The pressure cooker distributed the stewed food to everyone, and everyone ate with spoons while looking around.
This place is like a deep pit, with the surrounding soil layer about two meters high. At that height, people hiding on the edge can completely withstand the wind.
The only downside was the sand blowing in from above, which was so severe that they had to eat quickly, otherwise a gust of wind could turn a delicious lunch into undercooked rice.
After eating and drinking their fill, the group continued onward. When Lu Yuan climbed back up the mountainside, he still couldn't see anything ahead.
However, as he bent down to get down, he discovered an unusual sight: the deep pit they had just been in looked like a giant footprint.
When Lu Yuan saw this scene, his heart pounded, because they had passed through several similar deep pits on their way here, and a sense of tension immediately welled up in his mind.
"A single footprint is two meters deep and over ten meters wide! What kind of creature could leave such a footprint? Is it even a creature we can handle?"
Lu Yuan was extremely shocked at this moment. Such a huge size was beyond the scope of his understanding of creatures.
This can no longer be called a living being; it's more like a monster.
Perhaps only creatures depicted in movies and TV shows, which often have footprints that reach hundreds or thousands of meters in length, could possess such powerful footprints.
After Lu Yuan went downstairs, he told everyone about it. When everyone saw the photos on the camera, their eyes were filled with shock.
"Oh my god, are we still going? This creature is beyond killing. If it's really as huge as we think, then what's the point of fighting? Let's just go home!"
Everyone felt that there was absolutely no chance of defeating this enormous super-creature.
Lu Yuan was also having second thoughts, but having already come this far, he was really unwilling to go back.
"Why don't we go over and take a look? If it's not working, we can go back. The idea was good, but now we've already given the Sky Company the information on how to obtain second-tier crystals."
Then there's no turning back. We can go and take a look, and if it really doesn't work out, we'll just stay there and live a peaceful life, not thinking about anything else!
Everyone agreed with Lu Yuan's idea, so they all packed their bags and set off again.
After another full day of walking, Lu Yuan led everyone onto the road ahead once again in the early morning.
However, as Lu Yuan walked further this time, he felt that the air was filled with the fragrance of flowers.
The fragrance of the flowers was so strong that Lu Yuan felt nauseous and almost sickened.
Others felt the same way, but they all said that since it smelled of flowers, it was much better than this shabby place.
They continued on their way, and after turning two corners, they finally saw a different view.
In the distance, the ground was covered with blue flowers, like a blue carpet stretching to the horizon.
Upon seeing this scene, everyone couldn't help but gasp in astonishment.
However, Lu Yuan suddenly frowned, because he seemed to recognize this flower before.
Biologist Chen Yan, who knew the flower best, walked up to it and gently picked a small flower.
After examining it carefully in his palm for a moment, a look of horror appeared on his face.
"This thing is the spider lily, a flower that grows inside corpses. It has a strong fragrance, but it also has a strange, cloying sweetness!"
They rattled off the scientific name of the creature as if it were a familiar treasure, and everyone looked on in shock, quickly taking a few steps back.
Chen Yan, without any hesitation, picked up her backpack, took out an entrenching tool, and began digging under the flowers.
After digging for a few minutes, it suddenly seemed like they saw something hard below, and they couldn't dig any further.
Chen Yan dug away the soil beside her and pulled out a bone-shaped object.
After identification, it was confirmed to be the leg bone of an ape, because the bone was so long that it reached one meter.
Lu Yuan immediately remembered what Sean had told him before: they had once fought a war against that enormous dragon here, but they had not been able to harm the dragon at all, but had left hundreds of thousands of their people dead in this place.
It looks like these are the bodies of their dead people, and then a main road appeared.
As expected, Chen Yan dug a few more times and found a corpse under almost every flower. Looking at such a huge road, everyone felt a chill run down their spines.
"What should we do? Keep going forward or go back?"
Upon witnessing this scene, everyone lost all hope.
Lu Yuan glanced back at the road he had come from, still feeling somewhat unwilling: "Let's go take a look, just one look and then leave, okay? We won't fight anymore?"
