Demon King, Don’t Run Away Chapter 433: Why did you wake me up?
The white flower bones bloomed slowly, and the slender girl among them stretched, rubbed her eyes as if she hadn't had enough sleep, and kept making tired yawns,
The long black hair is lean and clear under the sun, shining beautifully. There is a tuft of hair on the top of the girl's head that is raised upward, slightly curled, and looks like a light yellow flower stamen.
What is even more surprising is that the bottom of her thighs is completely inserted into the huge flower base, blending into the white flowers.
This girl is also a member of the plant family, and her name is Lilith Lily.
Lilith raised her eyebrows like willow leaves in dissatisfaction when her comfortable nap was interrupted, and said resentfully:
"Sir William, it's still lunch break, why do you want to wake me up?"
"I'm extremely sorry, Lilith. It's really not a gentleman to bother you at this time. It's just that time is tight. I have to find other people later, and I have things to do, so I can only choose Excuse me at this time."
As he spoke, William the Pumpkin Monster took out a transparent card the size of a playing card from his sleeve and handed it to Lilith Lily,
"So far, the stolen racial essence has not been recovered. The Autumn Festival is coming soon, and the Tree Mother asked us to re-gather the racial essence so that we can reward the festival winners. Last year, we also owed the winners an enhancement. After the end of this year, use your own opportunities to both of them."
"It's really troublesome." Lilith yawned lazily again, "It's obvious that a collection can be used for ten years, but why was it stolen just after it was assembled?
I haven't recovered from the fatigue of gathering the essence of the race last time. When we gather again, I don't know how much my strength will shrink. ”
"Don't complain, my strength has weakened. That is the result of your unwillingness to exercise diligently. The tree mother has given us more than a year of recovery time. I am no different from before we gathered the essence of the race."
"Unfortunately, after more than a year, even though we have traveled thousands of mountains and rivers, we have not found the thief who stole the essence of the race."
Lilith pouted and played with the transparent card in her hand,
"If you can catch the thief, you don't have to go to such trouble. Autumn is still some time away, isn't it too early to start now? Look, the trees around are very green."
"It's getting late."
William took out a yellowing leaf from his sleeve,
"These are the leaves dropped by the mother tree. Summer is coming to an end and the harvest autumn is coming soon.
As seniors, we have the responsibility to take good care of the younger generations and guide them.
If we can cultivate reliable younger generations earlier, the burden on our shoulders will be lighter. ”
"Humph, where are the reliable juniors... Even if some tribesmen are given racial essence, they have not grown into outstanding people... Our parliament has not had fresh blood for a long time, members It has not been replaced for nearly ten years."
"Trees take time to grow. Cultivate them carefully and let them take root, sprout, branches and leaves. There is no need to worry about it. After chatting for a long time, I have to go and give the card to others. Remember to put the card Fill it up, don’t be lazy.”
"I know, I know. Good afternoon."
The Pumpkin Monster climbs the branch to meet the next member of the Council.
Lilith put away the card, gradually gathered the petals, and once again formed a white flower, she began to enjoy the warm afternoon sunshine alone.

.......
At this moment, Yang Yu and his party arrived at the edge of the Kafizzaro Desert.
On the cliff near the Gobi, Yang Yu and the others could glimpse the endless desert under the hot sun, emitting bursts of golden light.
Unexpectedly, the Gobi Desert, sandwiched between desert and humid areas, was not as desolate as Yang Yu imagined. A sizable town could be seen in front of them.
The vast Kafizzaro Desert, which runs through the border between the two countries, is home to extremely dangerous monsters, which can produce high-quality crystals and materials.
This is enough to attract many adventurers.
There are also rumors that someone once strayed into a certain ruins in the vast desert, brought back countless treasures, and then reached the pinnacle of life and married Bai Fumei.
Some desperate people will go to this uninhabited desert to try their luck. Maybe they can really change their destiny. If not, they can die peacefully, as if they have evaporated and will not leave any trace in this world. Leave some traces.
However, it is not adventurers or treasure hunters that bring the Gobi Desert to life, but the lucrative slave trade.
Across this desert, you can reach the Wansheng Kingdom where demi-humans live. As long as you plunder those demi-humans and sell them to others as slaves, you can make an extremely considerable income.
Therefore, many people who are not doing their jobs have traveled thousands of miles to the Gobi with the dream of getting rich overnight, trying to cross the Gobi and go to the land of prosperity.
Unfortunately, even if nearly ten thousand people cross the border between the two countries a year, only a thousand people can successfully bring back slaves.
The prevalence of the slave trade has also brought many problems to the Gobi Desert. The security of the Gobi Desert has been deteriorating in the past ten years, and different groups have often taken action for their own interests.
After all, not everyone can make it through the so-called desert unscathed.
If you want to cross the vast desert, you need a desert guide who is skilled in identifying directions in the desert, and these guides are usually served by local residents near the Gobi.
However, people who can accurately identify directions in the desert usually have to go through tens of thousands of trainings and are familiar with every wind direction and every sound.
The conditions for becoming a desert guide are extremely demanding, and very few people can persist, which has also led to the scarcity of desert guides.
This scarcity intensifies conflicts between groups with the same purpose. There are very few groups that can calm down and jointly hire desert guides.
Yang Yu has no intention of hiring a guide. After drawing many prizes, Yang Yu got the artifact - a compass that can instantly identify directions a long time ago.
As long as he has this compass to identify his direction, Yang Yu doesn't have to worry about getting lost in the desert.
In addition, before coming to the Gobi Desert, Yang Yu had already prepared various supplies in the system, especially enough water. It is roughly estimated that these supplies would allow them to get lost in the desert for a year and a half. It doesn't matter at all.
Without a guide, you can explore the vast desert at will, and you may be able to find some treasures.
Anyway, with a compass and Lotkar's strong legs, you can always get out of the desert as long as you head in one direction.
Thinking like this, Yang Yu took out the compass from the system and confirmed the current direction. But at this moment, the compass pointer suddenly seemed to be possessed, spinning freely on the dial like a top. .
Yang Yu was stunned for a moment. There wouldn't be any strong magnetic field in this desert, right?
