The hard rocks under my feet have become sandbars again. I don’t know if those rocks are covered under the fine sand, or they have gone through tens of thousands of years of wind and sun to become sand in just a few steps. dust. The team of only four left a few parallel rows of footprints on the sandbar, which looked quite elegant.

The problem is that as the number of steps taken by them increases, the footprints that are far behind, do not know when they start to seep water. When the water fills the footprints, there will be a series of bubbles gushing out from the bottom, one after another, forming a column. It seems that there is some kind of creature living in the sand under the footprints, or the footprints attract them.

It didn't take long for this situation to attract attention. Cheese began to deliberately take some curved routes when leading the way. He was trying to observe the footprints behind him in this way. The fog in the sky has eased. After it has been known that the source of the steam is the steam gushing from the rock, this phenomenon cannot be said to be completely unreasonable.

It’s just that, generally speaking, the way the mist spreads should be uniform. The current situation can only show that there is some force that forces the smoke to flow toward the outside, wrapping it up. But this still couldn't explain the abnormality under his feet, as the gray robe deliberately did it, his players gradually became aware of it.

"Gada Gada" fine sand was pushed out of the footprints, and the original regular edges were destroyed and turned into a canyon-like depression. It can be seen that the fine sand is pushed out by some insect-like fine limbs. The frequency of these thin limbs is very fast, and the sound actually made is also very small. If it weren't for the cheese, there was not even a gust of wind here, I am afraid the sound of sand pushing would not be so easy to detect.

In fact, the most sensitive eyes and ears in the team are not cheese and Via. These two wizards have been too edified in the laboratory, and the sensitivity of their senses is dull compared with those who have been in nature for a long time with people and things. A lot. So the first person to point to the things in the footprints was Yuni.

It may be the effect of veterinary disease. The senses of an elementary student are somewhat different from those of ordinary people. For example, in addition to hearing the sound of sand pushing, it is him who is the first to see the small things clearly.

Yunila pulled the gray robe of the teacher, and whispered a few words in the latter's ear, expressing what he saw as much as possible. After the cheese heard it, he had a bit of care in his heart and told Yuni not to speak loudly, and told the other two people one by one what he saw and heard. At the same time, their footsteps cannot be broken.

The reason to be so careful is that the gray robe doesn't know how the things under the sand will react if they stand in one place for too long.

Here is not far from what they are looking for, combined with the habits of the worm's offspring, in the worst case, those fine limbs may actually be part of their body. If you are alarmed now, you will probably spend too much energy on these unimportant organs before the decisive battle begins. However, whether they are out of curiosity or thinking about retreat, they better figure out what those are.

"Can you poke the sand away? A small part is fine." Cheese made a few simple gestures to Wei Ya, explaining his thoughts. Her plastic energy spells can be very delicate in element control, which is very suitable for this situation.

The female mage nodded, pretending to be stumbling under her feet, and bowed forward, grabbing a few grains of sand in her hand. Luo Luo made a gesture to help her, actually to block the magic light in his eyes. This is of course a play, in fact the female mage's footsteps are very steady. She pushed Lolo away and shook her hands, seeming to shake off the sand from her hands, but actually finished casting the spell.

In a small puddle not far away from them, the sand tilted toward all sides like a pool of broken embankment, and quickly drained and disappeared under the sand, exposing several thin limbs. Those fine limbs froze for a moment, as if they hadn't figured out the current situation, and were still puzzled as to why the top of their heads became dry.

Several people walked into the footprint quietly, and saw the owner with fine limbs crawling out of the sand to check the problem. That thing looks exactly like a hermit crab on the seashore. The so-called fine limbs are also its forelimbs and claws. However, unlike ordinary hermit crabs, although only a head was exposed, several people could already see the humane light from the eyes that protruded from the torso.

Its image immediately reminded Cheese that Lothar had mentioned before, and some of the partners in the sea he had brought back from Shixinwan, Shellman. It is a group of crustaceans that are described as possessing intelligence that does not belong to humans, and can establish communication channels with humans through nonverbal means.

Cheese didn't see the Shell Man in person because they didn't follow Lothar north. In the words of the earl, the cold water in the north would harm the fragile bodies of the shell people, so they only gathered in the southernmost ports of Cangshi and lived a secluded life. So, is the creature with humanized eyes in front of him just the Shell Man, or some variant of the Shell Man? Or is it actually a minion of Cthulhu?

It was also the first time that Wei Ya saw this magical creature. She saw that the other party didn't seem to realize that she had become the focus of the group, so she cast the spell again, raising the sand under the footprints, turning from a depression to a Rooted out of the sand pillar off the ground.

The hermit crab-like creature was lifted up to the height of a human knee in confusion. This little guy still didn't figure out the situation at this time, and looked around with his eyes in an incredible state. At this point, the cheese is basically instinctively certain that it will not be a creature related to the evil god, because all creatures that have been contaminated by those outside existences will basically no longer have such a natural state.

But this does not mean that it is not dangerous. This is the base established by the worm's heirs. It can live and survive here quietly, and it and its kind are bound to be unique. If they are really neutral creatures living here, they should be treated more carefully, even if they can't let them help, it's better than setting up new enemies for themselves. Thinking of this, the cheese slightly stretched out his hand to signal Via to stop playing with it.

At exactly this time, the hermit crab finally discovered that it was becoming an ornament for four human beings. Its eyes swept over several people, and then as expected it retracted its head and paws into the sand, revealing only one with a spiral pattern. The shell is in the sand. This action looked like it was out of fear or shyness, but soon they realized that it was incorrect.

Because at their feet and not far away, a large amount of sand was turned over, and many similar creatures were drilled out one after another under the footprints that had been dug up. It's lively.

But what’s interesting is that although there are a lot of bulges on the sand, the only ones who really drilled out of the ground were those who crawled out of their footprints. The other hermit crabs seemed to be trapped under the sand by an invisible net. Fa broke through this shackle and came into the world of air.

"They seem to be trapped underneath." Perhaps because of the sensitivity of the creature's movements, Lolo quickly noticed the abnormality on the sand. Out of curiosity and kindness, she reached out and opened the nearest sand dune, releasing a hermit crab inside.

The hermit crab's claws were very close to her fingers, and if it wanted to, it would definitely leave a scar on the dancing girl's hand. But the imaginary attack did not occur. The hermit crab quickly climbed out of the ground after confirming that he had left the sand, leaving this accessible passage to other kinsmen.

"Interesting. It seems like some kind of curse, cursing that they can't get out of the sand on their own."
