Haaa. Ha
[Alexa where are we? Did we really advance in the right direction?
this terrible heat, is slowly killing out]
Walking with a heavy breath, Anna started complaining to Alexa, who was guiding in front of us, while panting.
Dripping sweats heavily drenched her beautiful fair face alluringly, making her appearance looked sexier in this hot weather.
It wasn't only her, the other two won who ca together with in this Dungeon exploration also had the sa situation as her.
With how hot the dry air in this desert, their outfit already beca very sticky from their sweat, making a spectacle which was reminded the scene of carbonated drink advertisent in my previous world.
[I'm not too sure right now
Just keep walking, if we were hit by so sand storm coming sowhere, I could predict the direction of our destination later, probably]
With the healthy brown skin glistening from her sweat, under the hot bright sky, Alexa suggested briefly with so uncertainty in her tone.
Hearing her uncertain answer, I hesitated for a while before trying to probe her carefully.
[Alexa.. what do you an by "if we spot so sand storm"? did you can confirm the direction by analyzing the sand storm?]
[It's sothing like that.
After the sandstorm hits a certain place, the sand dunes usually will make a certain pattern.
Through that pattern, I can read and confirming the geographical location we're currently in
Anyway, stop talking to
I, myself, trying very hard to control my stamina consumption right now.
stop complaining and keep walking]
Briefly explaining her thod to , Alexa started to beco annoyed by all our questions.
She starts frowning and back to checking her surrounding with high focus once again.
Looking at Alexa who was concentrating to confirm the direction we were trying to go, I and Anna decided to close our mouth and keep walking through the desert silently.
If by chance you guys asked what was Anna doing while we start having a conversation with Alexa, she just calmly walking with a calm cold face, ignoring the sticky sweat and the hot air that torturing her body.
Basically, she just being the usual Anna.
But, looking at her calm face, I couldn't help myself to start admiring her endurance.
As expected, her previous job as the crown prince of the empire's Assassin forming her into a formidable warrior who can endure throughout any extre environnt without batting an eye.
[Alex haa ha since you look fine and all, could you do sothing to ease the hot and dry weather here?]
All of a sudden, while I was lost in my own thought, Anna who couldn't endure the heat started asking to sohow normalize the hot weather here.
[If I could do it, even without waiting for you to ask it, I've already done it]
Yes, in this heat, only that was not affected by the environnt here and continue walking normally like walking was in the park.
Realizing this strangeness, I speculate that it's probably my Immortal bloodline skill effect.
Leaving that aside, the thing about Anna's request to changing the air here, made recalled how my Elental Manipulation skill failed to work properly in this terrain when I tried it before.
For so reason when I tried to control the fire elent to lower the temperature in my surrounding, the chaotic fire elents here always fighting back with my will, refusing to lower the heat radiated by them.
If you guys wondering why I didn't use so water elent to fight with the fire elent here, and cooling down the heat, the answer is not possible.
I didn't know who created this dungeon, as I felt like sohow the one who designed this dungeon floor already considering the possibility of it, and making the water elents consistency in this environnt to sowhat disappear.
The thing is, I'm not sure that if this floor really didn't have any water elent in it, but throughout my journey until now, I failed to sense one here.
Maybe, I will find it sowhere in a certain area of this floor, but right now, I can't sense any of it.
.
[Ha ha then, forget it ha
But still, to think you not even sweating in this kind of hellish dessert
Sohow I begin to wonder if you are really a human or not]
Disappointed with my answer, Anna decided to give up on finding so way to ease the hot weather here.
She began to state her wonder about the anomaly of my body with a hint of envy after it, seemingly having her mood affected by the heat.
I know at the ti like this, answering her with a smile is the best decision.
Who knows, if I gave her the wrong answer, it will only be escalated her bad mood more.
And so, assuming that there's nothing we can do about the heat, we silently agreed to stop talking, lessen the energy consumption to last longer on exploring the hellish environnt here.
'Ma it's just them who need this strategy though~
As my body is not affected by the heat here, I can dash and explore this floor faster alone if I want it, but as expected, I can't leave them alone here can I?'
With this thought, I considerately controlling my pace with them, resuming to walk and explore the unending sand dunes on the horizon.
.
..
2 days already pass.
In these past two days, we continue walking aimlessly in this seemingly endless desert.
During the cold night, we setting a simple camp and pass the night in this Hell Desert.
Since I still can affecting and slightly controlling the fire elent to a certain limit(increasing the temperature in the night), we can pass the cold night in the desert in warm to so extent.
Seeing these strange phenona that the fire elentals behave here, I started to get the gist of the unusual behavior about how the fire elentals work on this floor.
During the day, the fire elental here beca mad and crazed, making the temperature increase exponentially.
But when the night ca, they gradually beca calm once again, as if they finished venting their rage and chaotic emotion at the day before.
I'm not 100% sure about the certainty of my made-up theory, but when I carefully observe the fire elentals activities, that is what impression I get after spending in this desert the past two days.
....
What? Did you guys ask about my nightlife with the three won?
Forget it
Let alone touching them, just talking with them was already very difficult in this uncomfortable environnt.
Maybe the extre weather here really ssed up their mood quite a bit, so without their concerns, of course, I'll just behave like a gentleman in these past two days, strengthening my self-control further.
Besides, there's also a lot of annoying poisonous monsters that we t throughout the exploration that making the situation worse, forced them to beca very tense all the ti, and prohibited them to have so leisure thought.
Let's forget this unimportant thing, and back to my current situation.
Continue the journey to conquer the Hell desert, I and the ladies keep walking through the endless desert and trying to figure out the place where the Dungeon Crystal on this floor was located.
With the guide of Alexa, we didn't hesitate to advance with our steps and keep moving.
Along the way, since I have so spare energy, I began to assist Alexa by taking a charge of scouting the far-off surrounding area with my heightened sense.
Just as we continue walking and keep advancing like this,
[Huh?]
Suddenly, my sense warned about the existence of so living being 10Km away from us.
With my scanning ability, I detected a group of sothing seemingly approaching our direction at a fast speed.
[What's wrong?]
Seeing suddenly stop and leaking a confused sound from my mouth, Alexa tilting her head at and asked.
[Alexa, I think I spot a group of so living being, far in there seemingly approaching our direction]
Pointing in so direction with my finger, I replied to her.
[Sigh
Is it a group of monsters again?]
[I'm not entirely sure, but they're sohow giving a different feeling from the previous beast we face on this floor until now]
[Adventurers?]
[No]
Shaking my head, I turned down the possibility of it being an adventurer to Alexa.
Looking at my eyes unfazed, she began to touch her chin and pondered.
Gasp!
[Centaur!!]
She gasped in shock and said this while having her eyes open wide at .
[Centaur Tribe?]
Hearing Alexa ntioned Centaur, Anna suddenly added.
She also looked at my eyes seemingly wants to confirm her guess.
With that, I began to close my eyes once again, scanning the area where I saw them before, and concentrating my hearing on it.
..
Drasp drap drasp* horse step on the sand SFX
Drap drasp
As they gradually approaching here closer, I started to hear the sound of this group made when they're moving.
[They ca closer hearing from its step, it seems they're really a group of centaur]
Centaur.
An intelligent monster who had a humanoid top body, and a horse's lower body.
These guys were quite troubleso to deal with as they possessed wisdom, and fighting like a human army shrewdly, unlike ordinary mindless beast.
Just like a troll, these guys are considered a high-tier monster that always fighting in a group.
Since this is the Hell desert, of course, the Centaur here is not an ordinary centaur.
The Centaur tribe in the Hell desert was called the Ghost Sand Cavalry by the adventurer who used to explore the Hell desert.
[Get ready for the battle, for the sound of it, the centaur group seem to have a quite large number in it]
After confirming the identity of the monster that was entered my radar, I began to give my command to the ladies on my side.
Taking out their respective weapon, the ladies nodded at before heightened their vigilance.
Drasp drasp drasp!!
Drasp drasp drasp darsp!!!
Just as they taking out their weapon and readied their battle stance, suddenly we feel the sand below us began to tremble heavily.
With the sound of countless horse steps, a storm of dust gradually appeared not far from us, rushing through the sand in high speed toward our direction.
[These horse freaks, they're not bad
To think they can feel our whereabout from a far distance, outside my detection no wonder the adventurers fear them]
Seeing this scene where a cavalry formation-like army heading straight in my direction with montum, I subconsciously leaked these words from my mouth, admiring the centaur's detection ability.
Slowly, the battle between our group and the centaur will begin!
