The Path of Evolution

The ancient city in the oasis is full of exotic customs.

Looking at it, it looks a bit like the ancient city of Loulan in ancient Chinese legends.

The size of the ancient city convinced everyone present that it was definitely not a human work.

The ancient city was astonishingly large, with streets extending in all directions and as many as tens of thousands of houses in the city.

Zhao Hao and others used their wings to fly in the sky, overlooking the ancient city, and couldn't count how many houses there were. Preliminary estimates suggest that housing tens of thousands of households would not be a problem. If humans stood side by side on the street like an army gathering, it would probably accommodate millions of people.

There is a huge square in the ancient city, and the ground is as smooth as mutton-fat white jade.

In the center of the square, a colorful beam of light rose into the sky.

"This day has finally come..."

In a place in the desert where no one saw, a woman in white murmured in a low voice.

She looked at the ancient city, and then looked up at the sun and moon shining together in the sky. There was a hint of sadness and a hint of relief in her beautiful eyes.

"Meow~!"

Abao, who was lying at Zhao Hao's feet, suddenly let out a cry like a cat or a bear, and ran towards the ancient city.

Look at the red panda's poopy look, as if there is something good waiting for him inside.

Zhao Hao was moved in his heart and did not stop Abao.

He still remembered that when he went to Castaway Island, Abao's reaction was very dull and he was not excited at all.

Looking back carefully now, at that time, Abao seemed not to agree with Zhao Hao's attack on the Drifting Island. Sometimes he looked at Zhao Hao's eyes as if to say: "You are so underdeveloped, don't waste your time!"

But today, the ancient pet's excited and flirtatious look clearly said: "I will take the lead in the charge!"

Zhao Hao decided to take a gamble.

The spiritual sense of animals far exceeds that of humans, and the souls of ancient beasts are even more extraordinary. Maybe Abao has a premonition of something. Anyway, the fat panda has already rushed over, so let the fat man throw stones to ask for directions.

Unlike the Hanging Ancient City, the ancient desert city in front of us has no protective cover.

After seeing the dilapidation of the Drifting Island and the magnificence of the ancient desert city, Zhao Hao concluded that not all ancient cities have protective barriers, and the ancient city on Hanging Island is probably a special case.

Boom, boom, boom!

Abao rushed to the city gate, which was neither gold nor wood, and slammed the door hard.

"Guga!"

A strange roar suddenly came from the ancient city, something sharp and harsh.

A strange creature appeared on the city wall more than ten meters high.

It was a giant scorpion that was three meters long, with a dark green body and a strange and frightening sheen. It was extremely poisonous at first glance.

The head of the poisonous scorpion is shocking, it has a human head!

The facial features of the head were blurred and ugly, making it unbearable to look at.

"Ritian, is this the kind of half-orc that Niu Gegege mentioned, which is equivalent to an intermediate monster?"

Dong Qiantian was amazed at the appearance of the poisonous scorpion monster and said something with his mouth wide open.

"That thing isn't even an orc. I guess it's one of the more powerful junior monsters, and it's still a little short of the intermediate monsters." Zhao Hao said. He had seen the very good-looking Lu Jie and Xuexue. Charming Sword Demon has a deeper understanding of monsters than his companions.

"Junior monster? Why are you afraid of it?" Zhang Dekai was confused on the spot, and said enthusiastically: "Brothers and sisters, let's go! Gather together and attack the opponent's crystal!"

"Calm down, have you forgotten the lesson from last time?" Qin Sheng held down the messy Zhang Dekai and said cautiously: "I don't know how many scorpions there are in this city. If hundreds of them are killed, we won't be able to handle it. , take a look first and then talk.”

At this moment, black shadows flashed on the city wall, and three more poisonous scorpion monsters appeared.

Four monsters stood on the city wall with a strong aura, far superior to the black and white Eagle King in the western ruins.

"I'm going to test the water. You two are the queens."

Zhao Hao said something to his companions and walked towards the city gate in a confident manner.

He wanted to verify a bug: monsters above the intermediate level would not actively attack humans.

The reason why the Blue Dome attacked him was because he was close to the colorful light pillar. Before that, Zhao Hao had not discovered the existence of the dome. This actually explains the problem, and can be used to determine the level of monsters.

"Googa! Googa!"

As soon as they saw Zhao Hao walking under the tower, the four scorpion monsters roared.

Swish!

The two scorpion monsters couldn't suppress their violent temper and flew down from the top of the city.

Zhao Hao was not surprised but delighted. The two scorpion spirits actually jumped down and attacked. They probably did not meet the standards of intermediate monsters.

A poisonous scorpion waved its large lobster-like pincers and clamped hard on Zhao Hao's neck. Zhao Hao deliberately tested the power of this monster and did not dodge. He raised the green wood blade to block it.

There was a clang, and Zhao Hao's arm went numb, and he almost lost his grip on the green wood blade.

Experts will know if there is one as soon as they take action. Although the Scorpion Spirit is not as good as a big demon like Sister Lu, it is not easy to bully. At least it crushed the Black and White Eagle King Street. The psychic-level power is indeed extraordinary.

Zhao Hao retreated instead of advancing, slashing the scorpion monster in the waist.

With his current level of concentration of Gang Qi, even if he doesn't channel natural energy, a knife with a shattering artistic conception is enough to easily kill high-level mutated monsters instantly. But with the slash in front of him, the scorpion monster just cried out in pain. The shell on its body was intact, not even a skin injury. Its strong defense was shocking.

"Ritian, be careful!"

Suddenly, Qin Sheng shouted a warning.

In the open space in front of the city gate, another scorpion monster saw that his companion was unable to deal with Zhao Hao, so he immediately got cold feet and plotted against him.

I saw the scorpion monster opening its bloody mouth and spitting out a ball of green and sticky liquid.

A foul smell came, and Zhao Hao broke out in a cold sweat. He moved seven or eight steps away in the blink of an eye. This set of movements that he had practiced hard for more than half a year saved his life at a critical moment.

Phew! Phew!

There was a sound similar to the sound of boiling water being sprinkled on the sand. I saw the green liquid spilling down, and black smoke came out of the nearby soil. A fist-sized stone on the ground melted after being contaminated by the venom, as if it had been Just like bread soaked in hot water, its toxicity can be imagined.

Phew!

Qin Sheng and Zhang De opened their bows left and right, each shooting an arrow at the venom-spitting scorpion monster.

There was a crisp sound, and the two sharp arrows seemed to hit the steel plate, failing to pose a threat to the scorpion spirit.

"Have you ever been so hard?"

Zhang Dekai cursed in an ungentlemanly way. Ever since he got the seven-star feather arrow at the Treasure Appraisal Conference and started a life of shooting through the sky, he has never encountered an animal that he couldn't shoot to death. Today he has met a powerful enemy.

At this moment, Zhao Hao suddenly made a killing move.

Wild dash!

The other people's swords merged into one, and this time activated three kinds of natural energy, which was astonishingly powerful.

I saw a flash of green sword light, and the venom from the mouth of a scorpion monster fell to the ground in an instant. The ugly head rolled around on the ground twice before being knocked back to its original shape and turned into a scorpion head.

And the three-meter-long giant scorpion body also shrunk rapidly to about one meter in length, lying motionless on the ground.
