Chapter 574 Bone Sand
"I wonder how this skeleton will react if I pull out this flag?" Zhou Wen was just thinking about it. Even if he pulled out the flag, he didn't know what the use would be.
After taking another look at the vine flag and animal skin, Zhou Wen suddenly discovered that the sand under the flagpole seemed a little different from the white sand in other places.
When I walked over and took a closer look, I saw that the grains of sand next to the flagpole were very large, some as big as ping-pong balls, and some as small as glass beads, and their shapes were irregular.
In the game, because it was a Q version, it didn't look very real, but now Zhou Wen looked carefully and found that those large white grains of sand were not actually sand, but bones.
"Could it be that this white desert is not a real desert, but is made of bones?" Zhou Wen glanced at the boundless white desert and couldn't help but shudder.
If the sand in this desert is really bone sand, then how many creatures must have died here to form such a large desert?
And why their bones turned into sand is obviously something unusual.
Zhou Wen grabbed a handful of sand and looked at it carefully. The more he looked, the more it looked like broken bones. However, the size and shape of the sand grains were very similar, and he had no idea how they were formed.
"Could it be that this is actually the main battlefield of Zhuolu, and the creatures that died in the war are buried here?" Zhou Wen thought about it, and summoned the guardian dragon and Zhulong together, asking these two monster-level creatures to dig up the sand together to see if there is anything underneath.
In the Battle of Zhuolu, except for humans, every creature that participated was of mythical level, and they also had many treasures and magic. If one or two could be dug out, even if they were broken, they would have huge value.
Liuyi and Zhulong are huge in size and extremely powerful, even more powerful than an excavator. The guardian dragon dug hard with its front claws and dug out a big hole in just a few strokes.
Zhulong plunged into the sea of sand, his body moving under the sand. After a while, he separated a large area of sand into two sides, revealing a gully.
In the place dug by Zhulong, something seemed to be exposed. It looked like a sharp corner of ivory. Zhou Wen hurriedly ordered Zhulong to continue digging.
Zhulong and Liuyi dug together for a few times and found a big pit more than ten meters deep. A lot of things were exposed. They found that they were not teeth, but a huge skeleton. What they saw just now was just the tip of one of the chest bones. There were two rows of sternums like this on this skeleton, at least twenty or thirty of them.
The entire skeleton is a bit like a cow's bone, but it is many times larger than a cow's bone and there is no cow skull.
Apart from the skeleton, there was no other gain, but this gave Zhou Wen some hope. Since there were really monster bones underneath, maybe there were really things left over from that war, or there might be some dimensional crystals or something.
If you can dig up a few vitality skill crystals, you will become rich.
Zhou Wen asked Liu Yi and Zhu Long to keep digging in the desert, hoping to find something.
Not long after, a lot of bones were dug out from under the desert. Those bones had different shapes and should not belong to the same creature.
But what is strange is that those bones are crystal clear, like jade, and seem to have turned into fossils, but they still retain a moist texture.
Many bones shattered immediately when touched by Liuyi and Zhulong.
Unlike ordinary bones, these bones are like tempered glass. Once broken, they will turn into tiny particles, scattered in the white sand, and become part of the white desert.
"Sure enough, this big white desert is actually a bone sand desert." Zhou Wen was secretly shocked.
Judging from the scale of the Great White Desert, the brutality of that battle was far beyond their imagination, and there must have been quite a few mythical creatures who died here.
The two monsters, Liuyi and Zhulong, dug the sand sea into pits and holes, almost turning over half of the desert.
Unfortunately, except for some bones, everything seemed to have decayed and melted. Those bones were preserved for some reason, but most of them had turned into bone sand.
It is estimated that those that have not yet turned into bone sand are mostly the bones of some very terrifying mythical creatures.
Suddenly, Liu Yi seemed to have dug up something and roared at Zhou Wen.
Zhou Wen looked over and saw a rhinoceros head exposed in the sand pit dug by Liu Yi. However, this head was much larger than the rhinoceros on Earth, like a locomotive.
Although it has also turned into jade, this rhinoceros head remains quite complete and lifelike, with no visible scars on its head.
Zhou Wen asked Liu Yi and Zhu Long to come and dig together, and soon they dug out the rhinoceros's body. Although there were a lot of bones here, this was the first one that was preserved so intact like a giant rhinoceros.
However, this giant rhinoceros is like a jade sculpture. Its body has completely turned into jade and there is no life in it. It is definitely impossible for it to come back to life.
"Wait, there's no visible wound on its body. How did it die?" Zhou Wen looked at the rhinoceros carefully and suddenly had an idea.
"Perhaps these bone sands in the white desert are not purely bones, but the creatures here are affected by some unknown force, and their bodies are like this rhinoceros, all turned into fossils, and then shattered into bone sand..." The more Zhou Wen thought about it, the more he felt that it was true.
"What kind of terrifying power can turn so many creatures into bone sand? Is the strong man who uses this power on the side of Huangdi or on the side of Chiyou?" Zhou Wen guessed secretly.
The rhinoceros was able to remain intact after being petrified, and did not turn into bone sand like other creatures. This shows that it must have been extraordinary when it was alive.
Even so, he could not escape the invasion of that terrifying power and became what he is now.
Zhou Wen reached out and knocked on the rhinoceros a few times. There were two crisp clang sounds, just like knocking on jade or bone. The rhinoceros' body did not break due to external force.
Zhulong and Liuyi dug nearby, but found nothing except some fragile petrified bones.
"No way? Could it be that in that battle, the participants were all primitive creatures who only knew how to fight hand-to-hand and didn't even have any magical weapons?" Zhou Wen was a little disappointed.
Snap! Snap!
Suddenly, some cracks appeared on the rhino's body, and more and more of them appeared, and it looked like it was about to break apart.
"Maybe Zhulong and Liuyi bumped into it when they were digging just now. What a pity. It would be better to take it back and make a specimen. After all, it is a mythical creature from ancient times. It must be extraordinary to be able to participate in such a war." As Zhou Wen was lamenting, the jade rhinoceros had already been torn into pieces.
Something actually fell out from the rhino's cracked abdomen. Unlike the parts that had shattered into bone sand, that thing was still wriggling.
