i have a museum of curiosities

When he left from Sheila, Zhang also had an unhappy face.

Originally, I thought that by placing the other party within my line of sight, even if the other party had any plans, I could immediately counter them.Although it may not be able to break the game set by the opponent, but with the magical protection of [King's Will], self-protection should be no problem.But I never expected that the other party's words made my plan come to nothing, but I couldn't refute it...

Regardless of whether what the other party said was true or intentional, Zhang Ye silently raised Sheila's threat value by a level in his heart.
.
Although the surrounding area is full of yellow sand and ruins, occasionally a few mindless living corpses will come out to give Zhang Ye experience.Thanks to them, Zhang Ye has become extremely proficient in using [Thunder Gun], [Brutal Charge] and [Will of the King] at this moment.The "A Qi long sword" in his hand is also getting more and more smooth, and he can play all backstabs and executions decently.

According to the direction of the suspected Atreya imperial city building that I saw under the instructions of Sheila, I should have almost entered the scope of the imperial city after crossing the sand dunes in front.

But when he stepped on the sand, Zhang Ye felt a sense of palpitation inexplicably.Frowning, Zhang didn't continue to move, but silently widened his eyes, holding the "Aqi Long Sword" tightly in his right hand, and there was a faint flash of thunder in the palm of his left hand.

An obvious bulge appeared on the sand dune not far away, and it quickly turned around and moved towards Zhang Ye.

There's something under the dunes!
Zhang didn't hesitate either, the thunder light in his left palm instantly turned into a spear.He suddenly made a movement of throwing a javelin, and the [Thunder Gun] shot out like a lightning arrow, and exploded against the protruding position of the sand dune.

The whole set of movements is extremely skilled.

As the dust settled, a large pit appeared where the thunder gun had exploded, and a half-dead brown-red worm lay in the pit.

"This is... a sand worm?"

Zhang Ye stood outside the pit, staring at the brown-red monster in the pit.

—Desert Worm

——A strange life form living under the yellow sand, which has a powerful sand walking ability and a venom that kills people instantly, so some people call it the "worm of death".So far, no one knows what they rely on to survive.

"Hiss—look at this introduction, it's no worse than the legendary 'Mongolian Death Bug' at all..."

Just when Zhang Ye was silently amazed, seven or eight bumps appeared on the sand dunes behind him at the same time!

"Huh?" Zhang Ye's right eyelid twitched, and he turned around abruptly.

"Huacha, there are so many desert worms appearing at the same time! This is the rhythm of sending the young master back to the west..."

"Whoa-"

The [Thunder Gun] in the palm of his left hand took shape quickly, and the half-dead desert worm behind Zhang Ye suddenly exploded, and the terrifying mouthparts full of layers of fangs pointed at Zhang Ye's head!
"laugh--"

"Aqi's long sword" drew a beautiful arc, and the disgusting head of the desert worm split in two instantly, and the disgusting green juice splashed out, and Zhang Ye hurriedly dodged sideways.

At the same time, gravel suddenly splashed on the left side, and a larger desert worm broke out of the ground and came straight to Zhang Ye!

"call out--"

[Thunder Gun] Throwing it out mercilessly, Zhang Ye's eyelids twitched, and he rolled towards the sand on the other side.

"boom--"

The desert worm who wanted to attack Zhang Ye was hit by the [Thunder Gun] head-on, and its body was instantly blown to pieces.Where Zhang Ye was originally standing, another desert worm suddenly came out of the ground, but it missed.

Taking advantage of the opponent's inability to turn in the air, Zhang also swung the "Aqi Long Sword" without hesitation, splitting the opponent in two instantly.

"Whoosh..."

Standing on a broken wall, Zhang Ye took a few breaths.Even with the magical [Will of the King] body shield, no one knows what kind of damage the desert worm's terrifying mouth full of fangs will cause to his body.At least Zhang didn't want to try with his body...

Although his [Thunder Gun] is powerful enough and his "Aqi Long Sword" is sharp enough, the one who uses them is Zhang Ye, who is a human being.After killing three desert worms in a row, Zhang also felt tired.

Especially [Thunder Gun], as a simplified version of the most powerful "miracle" [Sunshine Gun] born out of Sun King Ge Wen, the consumption of mental power is not something Zhang Ye, a rookie who is just a fledgling donkey, can bear.Having used the [Thunder Gun] twice in a row before, it was too much for Zhang.

But the desert worms move too fast in the desert. If you don't rely on "staring slow motion" to capture their appearance in advance, ordinary attacks will be too late to deal with them. Only the speed of the [Thunder Gun] can be tough.

But... You don't have to be tough to deal with the enemy. Outsmarting is also a good way.

That's why Zhang Ye chose to rest for a while on this seemingly solid broken wall.

In the sand not far away, several obvious protrusions are circling around the broken wall. It seems that those desert worms do not intend to leave easily.

It looks like they won't attack me for the time being, but it's not a good idea to hide here... Who knows when they will attack?I also have no way to rest and recover my mental strength...

Sitting cross-legged on the broken wall helplessly, feeling the yellow sand being blown up on his face by the wind, Zhang Ye felt quite helpless.

Is there no way to deal with these damned disgusting creatures other than [Thunder Gun]?

Zhang Ye anxiously chopped off the bricks and stones on the broken wall with the "Aqi Long Sword", and made a crisp sound of "Dang".

At this moment, a not-so-big desert worm broke out from the sand next to it, and rushed towards the place where Zhang Ye had chopped just now.

Zhang Ye was taken aback, and quickly took two steps back, subconsciously swiping down the "Aqi Long Sword" in his hand.

"Pfft-"

The sand worm's body was cut in half, and its upper body fell limply on the sand.

"Huh? This desert worm... can sense sound? No... it should be vibration!"

Zhang Ye was overjoyed, and repeated the old trick.

"when--"

After the crisp sound, another desert worm got out of the sand and was easily cut in half by Zhang Ye.

"It seems...it's not that difficult!"

Zhang also turned his head and looked at the raised sand pile behind him, with a meaningful smile on his face.
.
A few minutes later, looking at the corpses of desert worms that had been chopped up and down on the sand, Zhang Ye finally showed a relieved smile on his face.Just when Zhang Ye was about to meditate cross-legged and take a good rest, an inexplicable palpitation suddenly rose in his heart.

"Who?"

Zhang Ye immediately shouted and stood up from the ground vigilantly.But there was only the rustling of gravel being carried by the wind.

Zhang Ye frowned slightly, and did not let down his vigilance at all, because the palpitations in his heart became more and more obvious, and even cold sweat was already oozing from his forehead.

"Don't hide your head and show your tail, come out!"

About three meters in front of Zhang Ye, the sand and gravel quickly gathered, and the sand piled up on the ground, gradually forming the shape of a person.

There was a warning sign in Zhang Ye's heart, and his right hand quietly pressed the hilt of "Aqi's long sword".

A figure wrapped in a black cloak appeared in front of Zhang Ye.

"who are you?"

"friend."

"I have no friends in this world."

"You have now."

"Where are you from?"

"From nowhere."

"Your purpose?"

"protect you."

"Protect me?" Zhang Ye was taken aback, and a sense of absurdity suddenly rose in his heart.

After accepting the blood test proposed by "it", I entered this world inexplicably. At first, not only could I not speak, but I even lost my memory for a while, and then inexplicably appeared in the ashes cemetery, the fire sacrifice ground and so on. The scenes and characters in the novel are full of weirdness no matter how you look at them.

It is also hard for Zhang not to suspect that there is a mastermind behind the scenes manipulating all this, not necessarily against him, but it has indeed brought him a lot of trouble.But now, an inexplicable person suddenly found himself and said something to protect himself... No matter how you look at it, it doesn't seem to be trustworthy.

"Who are you?"

"hey-hey……"

The man chuckled, but he couldn't tell the difference between male and female.

"You don't have to worry about who I am, just complete your mission well."

After speaking, the man slowly stretched out his hand into his arms.

Zhang Ye raised his eyebrows, and instinctively pulled out the "Aqi Long Sword" a few inches.

"Don't be so wary, you should take a look at this thing first!"

After speaking, like the man's right hand, a silver object fell into Zhang Ye's arms with a beautiful parabola drawn.

"This...this is..."

Zhang Ye's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief.

"...Kaleidoscopic ring!"

Zhang Ye hurriedly put the silver ring on his hand, and the next moment a shield shining with golden light appeared on his left arm!
"It's really an ever-changing ring!"

Doubts, surprises, doubts, and many thoughts rushed into Zhang Ye's mind at the same time.Zhang Ye suppressed the ecstasy in his heart, and silently sank his mind.

But the problem is...

Who is the other party?Why do you have your own ever-changing ring?Obviously, when I entered this world, all the items disappeared...

and……

Zhang Ye touched his face speechlessly, and suddenly remembered the scene of seeing the reflection of his face through the window of the carriage on the carriage under the blood moon.

It was an immature face of seventeen or eighteen years old!

So, is this also a soul wear?
When Zhang Ye raised his head, the black-robed man had disappeared, and even the sand where he was originally was was flat, and it was impossible to tell that there had been anyone standing there.

Although Zhang Ye had many doubts in his heart, now that he had the ever-changing ring in his hand, it meant that his life-saving ability was greatly enhanced, and the mission could be carried out smoothly.

At this moment, the small leather bag on Zhang Ye's waist suddenly flashed a white light, and a huge silver two-handed leaf hammer suddenly appeared on his right hand.

"Yuanba Heavy Hammer? Why...you ran out by yourself?"

Zhang also waved the "Yuan Biting Hammer" in surprise, but what happened next refreshed his three views again.

"Hmm... my lord, you finally called me again..."

"Who? Who's talking?" Zhang Ye was startled and looked around immediately.

"...my lord, I am in your hands..."

on hand? !
Zhang Ye was startled suddenly, looked at the "Yuan Chee Hammer" in shock, and said slowly, "Yuan...Chee?"

"...It's me..."

I'm dying, I'm dying! FMD my hammer can FMD talk! ! !Who the fuck would believe this...

"...my lord... where are you?"

"Oh, I'm right here..." Zhang Ye said depressingly.

"...where is it?"

"Um...the ruins of Atrea..."

"...Ruins? My country... has already been destroyed?"

hmmmm? ? ?
"My country"... What do you mean? What the fuck is the relationship between "Big Hammer" and the fucking Atreia? !
"call--"

Zhang couldn't help but let out a long breath, and then he looked up to the sky and cursed: "I'm going to your MD's blood test! Are you fucking playing with me?! What kind of weird and bad plot is this? It's full of make-shift Not to mention the feeling, a new character appears every two chapters, and none of the previous pits have been filled! Do you think it would be cool to fill all the pits in the later stage? Do you know that my experience is very bad now? Poor! What are you called? The author of a nine-rate novel can’t pick out such plots and settings with his feet, right?! You think you are an old thief from Miyazaki, and you can write a plot like Black Soul?! Xu Caikun, let me tell you...you are just a first-rate novelist, no, you are just a writer and codewriter!"

Suddenly, there was thunder in the gloomy sky, and the dark clouds in the sky were gathering.Perhaps... a terrible thunder storm is coming...

I'm sorry!No way... I'm just making fun of it, are you serious? !But then again... Did I really guess right?The black hand behind all this is Xu Caikun who has "disappeared"? !

For all that he said just now, Zhang Ye was half angry and half guessing.Originally, in his vision, since the world was structured so complicatedly, and the Hongguang community was also weird and unpredictable in reality, it was hard for Zhang to believe that a lesser-known online novelist could do it.Even his novels have become frightening "monsters".

At this moment, accompanied by a rumbling sound that trembled the mountains and rivers, an extremely thick bolt of lightning crashed down!

However, the target is not Zhang Ye, but the towering church-shaped building on the other side of the sand dune.

"Boom—"

The terrible explosion resounded through the heaven and earth, and at that moment, it seemed that the whole earth trembled violently!Immediately afterwards, a wave of air visible to the naked eye quickly swept out in a ring, destroying everything along the way!
Zhang Ye raised his eyelids suddenly, shouted and put his left hand in front of his body. Immediately afterwards, the golden light flashed from the kaleidoscopic ring in his hand, and a giant tower shield as tall as a person stood on Zhang Ye's body, guarding him tightly.

"call--"

The air waves hit, the wind raged, and the sand and dust swept through.

Zhang also felt an incomparable force rushing towards him in an instant, and the tower shield transformed by the kaleidoscopic ring shattered almost instantly!

"艸..."

Zhang couldn't help screaming, his body was severely repelled by the air wave...
