Du Ze looked at the fox-eared maiden opposite him. There are many kinds of beastkin, like bears, snakes, wolves, etc. The beastkin in front of him was obviously a fox-type beastkin.

The fox-eared girl had her hands on a knife while she panted and stared at Du Ze. Her appearance was very messy; her white robes were covered with blood, but Du Ze couldn’t tell if it was her own blood or not. Just trying to recover the knife from where it was deeply buried in the sand seemed to take all of her strength. Unable to lift the knife, she abandoned it and seemed desperate to fight with Du Ze.

Du Ze watched the beastkin girl walk a single step towards him before suddenly falling down on the sand, unconscious. If she doesn’t turn over soon, she will surely suffocate and die. Du Ze hesitated for a moment and then cautiously approached the vixen. As he walked, he noticed that there were human and beastkin bodies buried in the sand. There was clearly a battle here recently. Du Ze turned the fox-eared girl over. The girl’s eyes were closed and her expression was full of pain, as though she could not escape her nightmare even when she was unconscious.

Some silly, cute person crouched down by the fox-eared maiden’s side and looked around in all four directions. All he could see was endless sand with no trace of Xiu – he and the Moe Lord must have become separated when they teleported out of the Dragon Island. Du Ze thought about it and came to the conclusion that the space cracks at that time seemed to be in an abnormal condition. Perhaps because of this he was teleported here where there was a fight between the humans and beastkin?

Du Ze stood up and walked around in a circle, looking at all the bodies. The battle here was not a large one, but from the dead’s expressions and posture, the battle was very fierce. One of the humans had cut off a beastkin’s head while another human had an arrow through his heart. Du Ze turned over the last body and confirmed that he and the fox-eared maiden were the only living creatures present.

When he looked back at the corpses, Du Ze’s heart almost stopped as he seemed to hear a voice. He doesn’t understand these dead people’s feelings of wanting to pull the others down to Hell, even if they themselves died. The intense bloodlust gave him a shock and left him speechless.

In order to survive, in order to fight for a belief —— even until death.

The strong desert wind blew yellow sand over the bodies, gradually burying them. Du Ze stood there for a while then finally walked back to the fox-eared maiden’s side. The sand here was really too active and she was already half-buried. Du Ze dragged her out from the sand. The girl’s situation didn’t seem too good. Du Ze fed her a little water but her face was very red; obviously feverish.

Du Ze didn’t know how far Xiu was from him, but he waited in the hopes that Xiu might soon appear over the horizon. However, as the sun climbed higher in the sky, Du Ze couldn’t bear it anymore. Not only was it windy and sandy, it was also very hot and Du Ze felt that if he didn’t find an oasis soon, when the sun rises to its highest point he will be baked alive.

The fox girl was breathing rapidly. Du Ze stared at her for a while before deciding to carry her on his back. Although the fox girl tried to kill him, he still can’t abandon the girl to die in this desert. Du Ze was not worried about himself. Even if the environment is tough to survive in, he has his 0-point restore so he doesn’t have to worry too much about food or water. As long as external factors don’t stop him, such as unluckily stepping on quicksand, he is confident that he will be able to survive until the Moe Lord comes to pick him up.

He had no idea where to go since every direction looked the same to him. As Du Ze was hesitating, he thought of the small Phoenix on his head. The little fluff ball isn’t reliable, but it is a god beast. It should be able to find the water elements in this desert, right?
