Vol 2 Chapter 1188: Deep in the desert

After spending three days to complete the supply, Rod and Kassadin finally left Piltwolf and embarked on a journey to find the tomb of Emperor Shurima.
This is obviously not an easy journey.
Rod wanted to summon his own flying carpet, but Kassadin stopped him.
"We need the help of scavengers to see these cautious people on the flying carpet."
Rhode obviously didn't understand Kassadin's statement, but professional things have to be handed over to professional people. Since Kassadin said he can't fly, don't fly.
As a result, the two men walked all the way south after leaving Piltwolf.
"The scavengers are a special group of Shurima." On the road, Kassadin told Rod about some knowledge about Shurima. "They are like scavengers in nature...all resources. The last link to use."
"It can be seen from the name." Rhod nodded. "But... I once met scavengers at the market in Nasramei. They don't seem as mysterious as you say."
"That's not the purest scavenger." As Rhodes said, Kassadin shook his head. "In Naschrami's words... even if someone is under the banner of a scavenger, his actual identity should be a businessman. According to the traditions of Shurima and scavengers, it is impossible for them to enter Naschram."
"Why?" Rhodes was a little strange to hear this from Kassadin. "You mean...can't you?"
"Yeah, no." Kassadin nodded. "Actually, I have known this particular group, and according to the information I have collected, the origin of the scavengers is that the rebels and rebels of the Shurema Empire want I know that in the era of war and turmoil, command and conquest, not all Shurimans support the emperor to the utmost. Many people think that the emperor’s choice was wrong and tied the entire empire to the chariot. Act only for your own self."
"So... they left the empire?"
"Two-way exile." Kassadin sighed softly. "The empire exiled the scavengers, and the scavengers also left the empire. Everyone dislikes each other, and the two hates will naturally part ways."
"Then they are courageous enough." Rhode spit out casually, "Leave the country's asylum in this kind of place...I don't know if they insist, or they are not brainy."
"You can see clearly." Kaddin sighed as Rho said. "The result is just like you said. After leaving the refuge of the empire, the days of scavengers are getting worse. Better than not being protected by the laws of the empire, the scavengers directly spawned the emergence of sand thieves. At first, some wealthy scavengers nourished many large sand thieves. It was only after that that the sand thieves Started rampant in Shurima."
"Is the emperor regiment expressing nothing?" Rod was puzzled. "According to what you said...The scavengers should appear before the Battle of Acacia? In that case, the Shurema Empire should have enough power to deal with these sands. Stolen?"
"I don't know the specific things." Kassadin shook his head. "But what can be confirmed is that the Emperor Shurima didn't choose to clear the sand thieves at that time, maybe to scrape the last savings of those who betrayed the empire. ?"
Regarding Kassadin's malicious speculation, Rod shrugged his shoulders without saying much but in his heart, he actually agreed with this speculation.
History has never been tender, and the emergence of scavengers is based on a kindness that does not recognize war, but after all, they left their empire, and what happened after that depends on their own. select.
Even... Those scavengers willing to help Kassadin may have this dissatisfaction, right?
In this way, Rod and Kassadin talked, while leaving Piltwolf, all the way west, looking for the news of the scavengers in the long yellow sand.
……………………
The journey in the desert is boring.
Although he had a knowledgeable Kassadin as a travel companion, Rhode felt quite uncomfortable with the long journey.
After becoming a great magician, Rod rarely traveled so many ways that he rarely measured the earth with his feet. Now even if he applies a lot of protective spells to himself, physical fatigue is still inevitable.
Fortunately, the luck of the two people was pretty good. On the tenth day, Kassadin finally found his goal.
Looking at the shallow traces left on the sand dunes under his feet, Kassadin leaned down, his voice filled with joy.
"Found it." Digging down a few tens of centimeters, feeling the temperature of the yellow sand, Kassadin finally nodded. "It is the trace left by the sand beast. From the temperature of the gravel... they should not have. Go far."
"Qiansha Beast?"
"An insectivore that lives in the gravel of the Shurim Desert ~EbookFREE.me~ said that the most favorite thing for scavengers is to hitch the big guys." Kassadin stood up and grew out With a sigh of relief, "The Scavengers can remember the route of the Sand Scavenger as long as they find the Sand Scavenger, we will soon find the Scavenger."
Rhod nodded and motioned to understand.
Afterwards, the two men speeded up and started to move forward along the dunes. On the evening of the day, they finally saw the submarine beast.
At first, the two saw a small bone back exposed on the surface of the sand, as if it was a stone in a desert. It was generally unremarkable. But when he looked closely, Rhode found this piece The backplane is moving forward at a relatively stable speed.
"That's why we can't use flying." Kassadin pointed to the backboard and spoke dullly. "Because of the lack of reference objects, flying or other fast movements will make us unable to find traces of these guys. High speed While moving, the backplane of the submerged sand beast cannot be found. This is also a way for scavengers to avoid being discovered by sand thieves."
Between speaking, Kassadin simply moved into the vicinity of Qiansha Beast.
At the next moment, Kassadin took out a tambourine from his suitcase and began to slap in a hurry.
"Bang Bang Bang"
The rapid drumming made Rod frown slightly, as if the drumming sound had a special magic power, which made the heart beat faster after hearing it.
After hearing the sound of Kassadin's drums, the submerged beast hiding under the gravel seemed to be intolerable. I saw a burst of yellow sand, and this huge big guy finally broke out from the ground.
