章節 31: Man, Battle
編輯: Atlas Studios
Zhou Chen heard the weak cry for help and went forward to check.
Soon, he recognized this person as the middle-aged man from the Dragon Country who had been the first to step on the bone path.
Zhou Chen used the spear to dig out some sand from his body and found that his injuries were not light, especially one of his legs that was almost broken. No wonder he fell in the desert.
"Your condition is too bad. Sorry, I can't save you."
Zhou Chen gave it a few glances and decided to give up on the rescue. This person's injuries were too serious. He might need to use all the healing potion to have some effect, but he would not do something like that.
"Save me… I'll give you… two million… Dragon Country bills…"
The middle-aged man on the ground heard Zhou Chen's words and struggled to raise his head. Perhaps the high temperature in the desert had caused him to suffer from heatstroke, but his mental state seemed to be very bad. Even his voice was not too clear.
"Two million is very attractive, but even if you really give it to me, I can't save you."
Even Zhou Chen could not guarantee that he could finish this desert bone path, so how could he bring a severely injured burden along?
"Three million… save me… I'll give you… all my assets…"
Seeing that Zhou Chen did not agree, the man on the ground raised the price.
"Forget it, brother…"
Zhou Chen shook his head.
"Your current situation is hopeless. No one can help you, but I can let you die earlier so that you can suffer less."
Zhou Chen revealed his true goal in coming to this person. The reason he was willing to spend time checking on this unlucky person was because he wanted to get something.
"If you're willing to take out your equipment, I can help you pass a message to your family."
Zhou Chen thought for a moment and felt that this was the most practical thing he could do.
There was an indescribable silence in the hot air. The middle-aged man on the ground did not reply.
Zhou Chen aimed the spear at this person's neck and prepared to end him.
He had to do this. Otherwise, when this person died or was seen by other Survivors, the benefits would go to others.
"Alright… Come closer… I'll tell you…"
Before Zhou Chen could strike, the man on the ground spoke again, as if he wanted to say something to Zhou Chen.
"Sure."
Zhou Chen immediately responded. Then, the spear in his hand pierced through the man's neck, sending him from a half-dead state to hell.
There was a sound of something dropping on the ground. Zhou Chen turned around and saw an empty mineral water bottle.
"This person is too poor, or is my luck not too good…"
He felt that his one minute was completely wasted.
Feeling displeased, he immediately used his spear to dig around the person to see if there were any items left.
Suddenly, something shiny appeared in the sand near that person's palm.
Zhou Chen immediately pulled it out with the spear and found that it was a sharp dagger.
"Hehe, I knew that this person wanted to drag me down with him. Well, I wanted to kill him just now, so there's nothing wrong with him doing this."
The reason why Zhou Chen had killed him immediately when he heard that the other party wanted him to get closer was because he suspected that the other party had crooked thoughts. From the looks of it, his guess was most likely correct.
After picking up the dagger and the mineral water bottle and putting them in his inventory, Zhou Chen checked the area some more and confirmed that there was nothing else before leaving and beginning to climb the desert slope.
The slope was about 45 degrees, and it was over a thousand meters high. It would be a difficult climb.
Moreover, Zhou Chen quickly realized that there were also quicksand traps on the high slope. If he encountered them, he would have to circle around them, greatly increasing the distance to climb.
The entire climb took a long time. It was extremely boring and tiring. When Zhou Chen finally reached the top, his sweat was almost dry.
At the top, he sat down to rest.
Looking into the distance, he seemed to be able to see some greenery.
"That should be the oasis at the end."
Seeing the green light in the distance, Zhou Chen, who felt exhausted, suddenly felt a surge of motivation in his heart. He felt that it was finally time to leave this damned place.
He then looked at the area closer to him and realized that there seemed to be a small dot moving quickly in the desert.
"That looks like a person… skating?"
Zhou Chen's vision was good. He looked carefully and realized that the small dot should be a person. To be precise, it was a woman who was skateboarding.
"This person is quite lucky to have a skateboard suitable for such a long descent. It can save a lot of time and stamina."
After feeling a little envious, Zhou Chen began to slowly descend.
It was much easier for him to go down this high slope than when he came up, but he could not be too careless. If he was not careful and rolled to the bottom, he might be injured in the middle or faint.
Zhou Chen held a spear in one hand and an iron rod in the other. With their support, he steadily walked down the slope.
It took less than a quarter of the time to reach the bottom of the high slope than when he climbed up. He continued along the path.
After walking for about twenty minutes, he finally got his wish and encountered monsters.
These monsters looked like lizards. Most of them were less than a meter long, and there were about sixty to seventy of them. They seemed to attack with their sharp claws and thin tongues.
They were originally chasing after the skateboarder. But when they saw Zhou Chen, about half of them turned and charged at him.
Zhou Chen was somewhat satisfied with these monsters taking the initiative to come over. These monsters did not seem to have high combat strength, and there were not many of them. He immediately charged over with his spear and began to fight these monsters.
The first spear strike was a thrust that pierced the eyes of the lizard monster at the front. The spear tip pierced through its eyes and into its brain.
The second spear strike was a horizontal sweep with great force, sending seven to eight lizard monsters that were about to surround him flying back and crashing into the other lizard monsters behind them.
Then, he began to move and stab at high frequency, killing the approaching monsters one by one and wiping them out.
He gained a lot from this battle. Apart from a bottle of mineral water, he also obtained a cudgel and a passive skill.
[Cactus Cudgel

[Body Regeneration I
