Chapter 220 Returning by the Original Route
Three days later, Ning Xuan decided to leave this oasis wonderland. There were two ways to leave. One was to return along the underground river from where they came, and the other was to break the wonderland barrier and leave directly.
Of the two options, everyone unanimously chose the first one, which was to return along the original route.
The reason, of course, is that I don’t want to destroy this oasis wonderland, and I plan to come back and visit it when I have time.
There were no major setbacks when they returned by the original route. In fact, with Min Wu's short-distance teleportation function, they reached the location where they had encountered the storm in a shorter time.
After coming out of the underground river, Ning Xuan and the others once again faced the flying sand and rocks of the red sand sea. The scorching sun made the red sand and gravel hot. Ning Xuan and the others felt that the soles of their leather boots gave off a slight burnt smell.
When she pulled her calf out of the quicksand for the third time, Di Youlin picked her up and put her on his back. Then he spread his wings and flew up, "Master, let me take you flying for a while."
"Everyone be careful." Zhang Nan suddenly shouted, and saw the sand they had just stepped on suddenly collapsed, revealing a vortex of quicksand with a dark purple fluorescence below.
Chen Nan looked at the quicksand vortex not far away, cold sweat dripping from his forehead and sliding down his spine into his collar.
"The terrain of this desert will change. Although we are still taking the same road as before, the road conditions are different from before," said Zhang Nan.
"Don't forget to record these situations. Everyone should be more careful." Ning Xuan said.
After walking for about an hour, a big storm came. The strong wind carried copper-colored sand and drove everyone into the angle between two sand dunes.
In such a strong wind, Di Youlin's wings could not be spread out, and he could not keep his body balance. He could only land on the ground and hide from the storm with everyone else.
Ning Xuan took the little fox that was blown all over the place and put it in her arms, "It's so windy, don't let it get blown away."
The little fox was so moved that it cried and burrowed into Ning Xuan's clothes and lay there motionless.
"Look, what is that?" someone exclaimed.
Lan Xin waved her hand and summoned a water mirror. In the water mirror, she saw a fiery red line moving in this direction.
"That's a red fire scorpion. I've seen it on the battlefield in the Federation star field. This kind of scorpion is poisonous itself. The venom it sprays is a very strong neurotoxin. Just one drop can paralyze a person's entire body. Moreover, the red fire scorpion is very aggressive. Now that we meet them on a narrow road, we have no choice but to provoke them." Di Youlin said, looking at the fire line in the water mirror.
"In that case, let's kill them all. The red fire scorpion's venom should be very useful, so we can collect more." Ning Xuan said calmly.
"Master, there are too many Red Fire Scorpions and they are marching very fast. Please step back a little." Yun Han wanted Ning Xuan to find a safe place to hide because they were going to use their ultimate moves.
Ning Xuan was in high spirits and was not willing to retreat. "I won't affect your command of the battle. You don't have to worry about my safety. I will take good care of myself."
Ning Xuan refused to retreat, and Yun Han had no choice but to greet Lin Mo, Chen Nan and others, asking them to be careful and try not to leave the master too far away.
Yun Han was familiar with the talents, skills, strengths and combat styles of everyone in the team. Yun Han arranged the battle process very properly and no accidents occurred. One by one, the red fire scorpions died in various ways. This lasted for about 20 minutes, and tens of thousands of red fire scorpions were wiped out.
On Ning Xuan's side, apart from the fact that Wang Teng was splashed with venom during the battle, causing his body to become numb, nothing else happened.
Next came the time for harvest. There were tens of thousands of red fire scorpions. Ning Xuan counted on her fingers and realized that she could extract a lot of venom from these red fire scorpions.
There were no more twists and turns on the journey, and they successfully returned to the Jiujiang safe zone when dark.
As soon as Ning Xuan and others returned to the Jiujiang Safety Zone, the commander of the Jiujiang Safety Zone sent someone to pick them up.
Ning Xuan knew that these people were coming for Yun Han, so she waved her hand and let Yun Han deal with it on his own. She went directly to their residence in the Jiujiang safe zone.
When Qiao Yu saw Yun Han standing in front of him in one piece, he finally let go of his worries. "Commander-in-chief, you've been gone for over a month. I was scared to death."
Yun Han sat in the main seat, supporting his chin with one hand and taking the hot tea offered by Qiao Yu with the other hand.
"You're only stationed in a place, and you only have this little courage. I'm scared to death. You're asking for a fight by saying this." Yun Han glanced at Qiao Yu, and a calm look was reflected in his dark pupils. However, seeing his expression, cold sweat instantly broke out on the back of Qiao Yu's neck.
Seeing that Qiao Yu didn't dare to say anything, Yun Han stood up and said, "Let's go, I have to save some merit points." Yun Han tapped the desk in front of him with his slender, bony fingers and said to Qiao Yu.
"Boss, isn't that Miss Ning... Miss Ning followed by half-orc slaves? Why does she let you do such chores? Boss, is she not treating you well?" Qiao Yu looked at Yun Han with heartache and anger.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Come with me quickly. By the way, prepare a car for me and park it in the yard." All the exotic beasts that Ning Xuan and her friends had hunted in the past month were stored in Yun Han's space bracelet.
Qiao Yu had to listen to Yun Han's words, but when he saw the whole cart full of corpses of strange beasts and countless red fire scorpions, Qiao Yu's eyes almost popped out.
Originally, Qiao Yu planned to have his soldiers share some of the exotic beasts they hunted with Yun Han to help Yun Han get good results in the joint entrance examination.
However, after seeing this large truck today, Qiao Yu completely gave up this idea.
Yun Han accumulated all the merit points that could be accumulated. After finishing this task, Yun Han returned to the residence reserved by Ning Xuan despite Qiao Yu's obstruction.
After returning to the Jiujiang safe zone, Ning Xuan was no longer in a hurry to practice. Instead, she began to enjoy life leisurely, strolling around the trading market, buying some items she liked, and playing with the little fox.
Life is very leisurely.
Currently, in the updated average score list of the graduation joint examination, Ning Xuan's merit points are among the top, and the names of other people in the team are also relatively high.
On the fifth day of Ning Xuan's recuperation in the Jiujiang safe zone, Ning Xuan called everyone together for a small meeting. Ning Xuan decided to leave the safe zone and continue exploring.
Ning Xuan had already made the decision, and no one else objected.
After all, as long as you follow Ning Xuan, you can enjoy the fruits of collective labor, and whoever opposes will stay in Jiujiang.
When Qiao Yu learned that Yun Han was leaving, he felt as if the sky had fallen. He didn't want Yun Han to leave the Jiujiang safe zone.
