Those who reincarnate must die.

Chapter 407 Desert Palace

The heroes led their pioneering team forward through the desert, slaying numerous monsters under the guidance of Thunder's radar.

Many other groups of sacrificial offerings also entered the desert dungeon one after another. Some followed the pioneering group at a distance to explore, while others used their search abilities to find and hunt monsters on their own.

Of course, many sacrificial teams still remain in the relatively safe sewer level, picking up scraps and earning a little money, which is better than nothing.

Of course, the most spineless among them, the moment they received the notification, retreated back to the ground, eager to collect their hundred gold coins...

"Be careful, don't get caught!"

Hundreds of meters behind the pioneering team, there was an inconspicuous small team hanging in the distance.

The desert terrain is undulating, and often the view disappears after crossing a sand dune. These guys can keep track of the target from a great distance, so they must have special tracking abilities!

"Don't worry, we're this far away, and we've got anti-radar devices and optical camouflage!" The leader of the group was a short, stout man wearing sunglasses. "Even if they turn back, we'll have enough time to hide!"

"But speaking of which, what are you guys doing with the pioneering group?" The fat man turned around and looked at the three people behind him. These three guys had come to him last night when he was recruiting teammates, and they didn't know each other before.

This chubby guy is named Fate. He is an expert in tracking and infiltration, making him an excellent scout. However, he lacks direct combat skills. He is participating in this mission alone, so he hopes to recruit some capable teammates.

As a result, instead of finding teammates, he recruited three people. These three guys didn't mention cooperation; they just wanted him to use his tracking and stealth abilities to help track hero-level teams, offering 100 gold coins a day!

He calculated that this job was worthwhile. Teaming up with others to kill monsters for a day and then splitting the money wouldn't even get him fifty, let alone a hundred. Besides, he wasn't good at combat and would hardly get any kill rewards. This job, on the other hand, would net him a hundred a day. No matter how you looked at it, it was a win-win situation, so he agreed.

"Don't ask so many questions!" The three glared at him. "Just take the money and do the job!"

The chubby boy shrugged and could only keep quiet. Anyway, following behind the hero-level creatures meant they were taking paths they had already explored, so it was relatively safe. Besides, even if something did happen, as a master of exploration and stealth, he wasn't afraid of not being able to escape.

I'll just follow along; after all, they gave me the gold coins.

Meanwhile, the pioneering team followed Thunder's navigation and traveled for six or seven kilometers before suddenly stopping.

"What's wrong?" Olissis asked.

"That's the end of the road!" Thunder's emotionless electronic voice rang out. "Ahead lies something like a wall, and behind it is an unfathomable, solid structure!"

"As expected, there are boundaries!" The reincarnators realized that, just as recorded in the ancient books, although it was very similar, this was not a real desert, but a closed space filled with sand, and then simulated with magic or other mysterious powers to simulate the climate and environment of a desert.

Based on this, the lower floors should be similar.

Since we've reached the end, let's change direction! Thunder turned left and began exploring along the boundary. But they hadn't gone far when a sandstorm suddenly rose in the distance, swirling and hurtling towards the exploration team!

"Watch out!" The pioneering team immediately began to assemble, setting up protective barriers to defend against the sandstorm...

Fortunately, the sandstorm came and went quickly, dissipating and disappearing in just a few minutes, but most of the pioneering team members had already been buried...

"Cough cough..." The reincarnators stood up, shaking off the sand. This was the fourth time they had encountered a sandstorm... In this damned desert palace, a sandstorm would blow in every ten minutes or so. If it weren't for this, these experts wouldn't have taken so long to travel even a few kilometers...

"This wretched place is worse than the real desert!" complained a black sacrificial offering wrapped in a turban. He was actually from northern South America and a true desert resident, intimately familiar with the desert conditions. He had thought this second level would be his domain, but he had underestimated the dangers of this underground palace.

"Wait...have you noticed? These last two sandstorms came faster than before!" said a tall, white sacrificial offering. "And the gatekeeper monster is called the Sandstorm Lizard..."

"You mean..." The maned wolf's eyes darted around, "This sandstorm is the gatekeeper monster's spell? The fact that it's coming so fast means we're closer to it?"

"Very likely!" Murong Lan cleaned the sand off her sniper rifle. "Where did that sandstorm come from?"

"That direction!" A young woman of East Asian descent pointed in a direction. "And considering the previous sandstorms, combined with our changing position, they all seemed to be blowing from the same direction!"

"Specifically targeting us?" the silver-armored knight Olissis exclaimed in surprise. "Did that monster discover we're here to fight it?"

"It's probably an indiscriminate attack!" Zhao Ying scoffed. "It's unleashing multiple sandstorms in all directions!"

"No matter what, let's try exploring in that direction!" Mane Wolf took the lead and changed direction, with the black warrior Tuka following closely behind. The others looked at each other and hurriedly followed.

Sure enough, they encountered another sandstorm not long after they started walking, and this one was even more powerful than the previous one. If you think of a sandstorm as an arrow being shot out, the more powerful it is, the closer they are to the starting point.

Sensing they were nearing the answer, the exploration team quickened their pace. Soon, Thunder reported, "One hundred and twenty meters ahead, there's a vast underground space... wider than anything we've encountered before!"

"Found it, it must be this one!"

The group was in high spirits and immediately moved forward. However, as they got closer, the desert suddenly collapsed a hundred meters ahead. Then, huge locusts, each the size of a pigeon, flew out of the sand, covering the sky and creating a scene reminiscent of a locust plague!

They are desert locusts, swarms of desert locusts!

The bounty poster features this creature; it looks like a larger insect that can spray corrosive venom. However, a single insect doesn't produce much venom and poses little threat. But now that they're coming in swarms, things could change.

The pioneering team frowned as soon as they saw the swarm of locusts, not only because they found it troublesome, but also because they felt it wasn't worth it.

This thing's combat power is almost negligible on its own. Although it's on the bounty list, other monsters are exchanged for a certain number of gold coins for a single body part. But this guy is different; he wants the head, and not the individual parts, but the weight. It's only one gold coin per kilogram!

If you tear off the head of this thing, it's only about the size of a quail egg. You can find about a hundred of them in a kilogram. You'd be better off hunting a sand worm, an antlion, or a desert gecko than catching this thing.

But even if they're worthless, we can't just let them rain acid and poisonous mist down from above. Those in the group with area-of-effect skills started throwing them into the air, and a few with flamethrowers came in handy. After the fire burned, the charred locusts fell down with a crackling sound.

Under the attack of the pioneering group, these swarms of locusts, which blotted out the sky, died in large numbers before they could even spew their venom. But just when the reincarnators thought victory was imminent, a violent sandstorm suddenly surged out from the collapsed center and swept in!
