Warhammer: Decided to take the route of stars surrounding the warp

Yifeng is standing in the middle of the desert now, feeling so bored.

Surrounded by several mortal auxiliaries, water and food were prepared, as well as emergency medical measures. In order to ensure fairness, a huge multi-layered screen was specially prepared with surveillance cameras from all over the place.

There are emergency ambulance flying units in the sky on standby at any time, organized by various noble families raising funds. After all... what if they can save their children, right?

Otiste didn't come this time. Instead, the person who came was a local person from the Ministry of Household Affairs who manages the population. He was rigorous and conscientious in his work, easy-going and humble. He was good at everything except his appearance...it's a bit hard to describe.

To put it simply, you can enchant thousands of troops by looking at your back, and scare away millions of troops by turning your head.

Yifeng silently turned his back. He couldn't resist this charming "beauty", and in the end he could only stare at the monitoring screen with nothing to do.

Now that the selection is about to begin, it is estimated that no one will come in a short time. After all, this desert is not small, and there are many beasts dormant, although the hot weather during the day will restrict their movements. If you can't find a suitable place to spend the night, it's like putting peeled fruit in front of a hungry person.

"Hey, let's go to bed. I guess not many people will be able to arrive in the first two days."

At this time, the outer edge of the desert was already surrounded by a sea of ​​people. It was roughly estimated that there were tens of millions of people, and they were evenly distributed in a large circle around the entire desert.

Although the nobles in the upper nest have basically decided on the candidates for the expedition, and few people come to join in the fun, the people in the middle nest and the lower nest are all high-spirited. This is an excellent opportunity to change their lives.

This challenge is very difficult. Even for the best experienced travellers, there are very few candidates who can reach it within three days by using starlight, let alone children between the ages of twelve and fourteen.

At this time, Calculator Enke, Little William and Frosa all arrived at their respective positions. They were the last people in a car, so the assigned positions were next to each other. Everyone decided to meet up after starting the selection to prevent anyone from thinking To rob water sources.

And Xiaolan, who had eaten so full for the first time in her life, had just arrived at the selection venue pitifully. She was out of breath and was about to start the most important competition in her life. She only had ten minutes of rest time left for him.

——————————————————————————————————

Here comes the author’s thoughtful map introduction. In this desert, there are three main predators. The first one is a species unique to this desert, the Sirika Hard Rock Giant Scorpion. This scorpion is very large and its whole body is black. It is rock-shaped and can move during the day and night, depending on its mood. However, it is not active enough during the day, so its so-called activities are limited to biting. If you want to find a place to rest during the extremely hot day, then you need to be careful. The huge rock with a hole in your eye may be its mouth. As for the night, its double pincers and giant tail will tell you its cruelty. Of course, the giant tail is poisonous and is mainly used to defend against another giant beast in the desert.

The second is the Serika Python. This non-venomous python really solves all problems only by its size. Its eating method is very similar to the whales in the ancient Terra ocean. It will swallow a huge amount in one bite. sand, and then uses its own strainer to filter the sand out, leaving only the desperate prey. Generally, you should be careful when you hear rumbling sounds in the desert. This means that there are giant pythons moving around.

The third type is the desert wolf pack. This kind of wolf pack that exists in many places has some mutations here. Their minds are extremely flexible and they are good at ambush. If you find that there are sand wolves around you on three sides, don’t doubt it. There must be wolves hidden under the sand on all sides, and they must escape toward the rocky area, because their specially evolved wolf claws are extremely painful to walk on rocks, and they generally will not walk on rocks.

Okay, now that we’ve introduced the carnivores, let’s introduce the herbivores and plants that can be used as supplies.

The first is the chameleon. I don’t know whether it’s because there are too few small creatures here or they are too weak. The lizards have completely turned into herbivores. Their blood and meat are good food. Of course, you have to eat quickly, otherwise the desert will be deserted. It would be bad if the wolf came. At the same time, they are also difficult to detect, and their ability to change color with the environment allows them to avoid many enemy attacks.

What is often bullied by chameleons is the skeletal tree. This forest tree that looks like a spine has extremely strong drought tolerance. Why is it called a forest tree? Because a single skeletal tree can grow into a miniature forest with a radius of 20 meters. They have small gray-white fruits, which are the main fruits of anoles. People can also eat them, but they are more sour.

Digging a little deeper into the desert, there is a special kind of fungus, known as the small sand mushroom. This kind of mushroom is a delicacy in the desert. Even if you dig it out and eat it directly, you can feel its unparalleled charm. They are delicious, but it is a bit difficult to find them. Looking for slight protrusions in a desert of this size is like a dream.

As for other little spiders and ants, I won’t introduce them much.

Shh~ someone is coming.

——————————————————————————————————

Xiaolan, who came from the lower nest, slowly arrived at the bone forest. He didn't know whether it was a plant, animal bones or a trap. He moved forward very cautiously. When he confirmed that it was just a plant, After the group, he tried to break many bone forest trees and then covered himself.

He planned to move at night and spend the damn hot day sleeping.

On the other side, little William, Enke, and Frosa decided to travel during the day. Without him, they couldn't see the stars, so they could only use the sun to determine their direction during the day.

There were rumbling sounds all around.

"Everyone, please don't make any noise, it's Sirika the python."

They are not Xiaolan who just came out of the nest and knows nothing. These three people are all well-educated, especially Xiao William, who has a serious elite education.

"Don't move your steps, Frosa, it determines the direction of its prey by the sound of the sand."

The rumbling roar gradually faded away, and there seemed to be a few screams coming from the other side, but they were too far away to be heard clearly.

Little William, Enke, and Frosa moved quietly to see if there was no response, then sped up and fled.

"Hey, little William, how about we catch a giant python and swim us directly to the center." Frosa couldn't help but tell his great idea.

"From my calculations, this plan is nothing more than a dream." Enke looked at the sun in the sky to judge the direction of travel, and paid no attention to Frosa.

"Humph, you are too perfunctory with me. You didn't calculate at all. If you did, you would tell the data." Frosa knew Enke too well.

Little William was well aware of the difficulty of this assessment and did not waste any words. As for why he didn't rest at night, it was because he decided to travel day and night, rest only during the day the next day, and then reach the finish line in one go.

"Save your water, teammates, we don't have enough water."

The three of them walked forward in silence, like a pack of wolves in the desert.

For those who participated in the assessment, this selection was like wandering around in front of the Palace of Hell. No, it should be said that it was wandering under the seat of Khorne, but for the wolves living in the desert.

Really... Really... I really can't eat anymore.

Although planes flying around in the sky are ready to rescue at any time, there will always be times when rescue is not timely. You cannot guarantee that all of these tens of millions of people can be rescued immediately.

Those who died of thirst, those who suffered from heat stroke, those who were hunted, their methods of death were gaudy, and their tastes were various, including hiccups, alas, and panic.

Wolves? Is it okay for humans to be a group now? Are there half a million wolves in the entire desert? Not sure, but there are tens of millions of people.

The Sirika Hard Rock Giant Scorpion, which usually only moves inside the desert, also felt the different atmosphere and hurriedly ran to the outside of the desert.

——————————————————————————————————

Nonsense, don’t run away and die there, what is there in the middle of the desert, what a killer.

Yifeng now has a roasted giant python meat in his left hand and a roasted Serika solid rock scorpion tongs in his right hand. He is enjoying eating it. What is this? Danger? Didn't this split with one sword? Isn’t it delicious to have a barbecue outdoors?

Come on, today is the first day of exams. Everyone has worked hard. The leader of this group will treat everyone to a barbecue. Uh, don't eat the scorpion, you can't digest it. Eat the python instead.

The staff had tears in their eyes, what is this? A Chapter Master of the Astartes grilling our meat himself? This must be the treatment of the Primarch, I am so frightened, oh my God, it smells so good!

"Thank you for your gift, the great Lord Astartes." The special commissioner of the Ministry of Revenue respectfully thanked Yifeng, and then ate the food gracefully, making the always rude Yifeng a little embarrassed to maintain. He eats savagely.

As the largest master in the desert, the first batch of behemoths without eyes provoked the Astartes, and the price they paid was death. The aroma of this flesh and blood attracted the desert wolves living in the center of the desert. They didn't know that "a lot of food" was coming from the outside, and they were still hungry.

Ever since, this wolf skin is so soft, it must be comfortable to sleep on. Yifeng likes to carry a wolf-skin cushion.

A huge bloody smell permeates the center of the desert, and all creatures are trying to escape from the center. If the slight bloody smell represents injured prey, the strong bloody smell that quickly turns into substance is an extremely terrifying disaster or the arrival of the king of the biological world. Performance.

Don't worry about anything else, there are so many things dead in the middle, so there is nothing terrible about it.

The poor outside selectors encountered a terrifying number of ferocious beasts on the first day. Of course, Xiaolan, who was sleeping under the sand and bone trees, didn't count.

Little William, Enke and Frosa are now hiding behind the sand dunes and shivering. There are galloping beasts on both sides, and even Little William is confused.

This was never taught in class, or in other words, there has never been any scientific record of such a strange thing happening over the years. Could it be that those scientists are too timid to go into the depths of the desert? It's impossible. They can't do anything with human mechanical creations. What do scientists have to fear?

Then changing his mind, they ran outside. What's inside? There must be Astartes in the assessment center. If they caused it, it might be a test for us.

As expected of the Astartes selection, the first level is so strict.

In the daytime of the first day alone, there were many middle and lower nest players who failed to hold on. There were many people in the hospital who were dehydrated and injured by various dangers, and there were even many who were disabled. If there was Asta The special distribution is scattered all over the desert, which looks a little better, but now there is only Yifeng, and it is really full of ambition but not enough strength.

——————————————————————————————————

Yifeng was eating barbecue and looking at the screen. Suddenly, a flashing black shadow caught his attention.

Funny, a mouse came in.

Yifeng made a casual move, and an Astartes transport spacecraft quickly descended.

Then go meet this little mouse.

At this time, Wei Ding was galloping in the desert. He accidentally lost the heir of the William family. If he couldn't find it, he would kill himself. Now the mistress sent a group of masters to either bring little William back or die himself. Here, then they took little William back.

Damn it, where can I find it in such a huge desert? How about squatting around the center of the desert. Jie Weiding basically knew that all the players who came to the desert in vehicles from where William disappeared basically entered in this direction.

So if you go from this direction to the center of the desert, you have a high chance of finding Little William, and the closer you are to the center, the more likely it is.

Thinking of this, Jie Weiding sped forward, and the skeletal trees on the dunes were as smooth as walking on the ground, heading straight to the center.

Xiaolan, who was sleeping well, was suddenly stepped on. She stood up in confusion and saw a man in black galloping away. Fortunately, I have enough bone forest covering my body, otherwise I wouldn't have been trampled to death by you?

"Beep~Beep~ (A harmonious society starts with me)". Forget it, I looked up and saw that it was getting dark and it was almost time to rest, so let’s set off.

Yifeng took a transport plane and looked around in the desert.

The contestants saw many of them, but they couldn't find the black shadow... Hey, I saw it, are you so arrogant? Floating on the desert?

The missile went out as soon as it was fired, and the powerful heat energy instantly enveloped Zhao Weiding. Zhao Weiding was startled and hurriedly avoided it.

My emperor's dentures, what kind of thing can a cannonball fly out of while running?

Wei Ding looked back at the huge sand pit blown up by the bomb. The sand in the middle was melted and then gradually cooled, turning into a glass-like substance.

Suddenly, there was a strong wind whistling overhead, and Chi Wei Ding rolled out. A white metal giant roared and hit the ground.

The leader of the Yifeng battle makes a grand appearance!

"You are very brave. Do you dare to rush in for the selection of Astartes recruits?" Yifeng raised the bolt gun in his hand. If the man in black didn't give a reasonable explanation, he would have no choice but to hang it outside the desert. The communication pole is up.

Zhao Weiding looked at Yifeng bitterly, "Oh no, these emperor's angels are not easy to talk to."

"I...the eldest son of our family escaped to participate in the selection. We are anxious to bring him back..."

"It is his own wish to participate in the selection, and he has already participated in this selection, so no one outside the desert is allowed to interfere."

"Sir, he is the heir of the Grand Duke... If it doesn't work..." Wei Ding moved quickly, took out a tactical knife and stabbed Yifeng.

If I can't find little William, and I have to be cleared out by my own family as soon as I step out of the desert, I might as well give it a try.

His specially strengthened body allows him to withstand loads beyond those of normal humans and to burst out at extremely fast speeds. At the same time, several small smoke bombs popped out from Chi Wei Ding's waist, using red and black cross smoke.

Without stopping, Xiao Weiding held the knife in his right hand and shot out a small dart from one hand, heading straight for Yifeng.

"Bang~"

The bolter answered him, and a body fell slowly, blood soaking the sand. The clanking flying props hit the power armor without leaving even a scratch.

"It's so fancy, you're so brave. Hey, you guys watching the show behind, what do you think?"

In the sand dune behind, four men in black stood up. They seemed to be from the same organization as the one lying on the ground.

"Do you know that if you offend us, you won't be able to get any ammunition supplies?"

He was answered with four bolter rounds.

"I don't know who is behind you and how high his status is, but he is definitely not as high as me." Yifeng maintains the good habit of winning first and gossiping later. What a joke, who are you threatening? I wonder if there are a thousand Astartes Chapter Masters in the entire Empire. How many are there on your planets? A conservative estimate is that there are one million. Let alone killing one of your guards, purging a hundred of your noble families may not have any impact on the empire.

"Hang these corpses under the sign that prohibits cheating outside the desert. Hang a wooden board above it and write on it: 'I come here for three things, fairness, fairness, or the fairness of the emperor and his toilet plug!'"

The mortal soldiers at the back acted quickly and took care of the corpse. Alas, it was great to follow the boss. It was hard work, but it was so refreshing.

——————————————————————————————————

Night fell, and Xiaolan traveled quickly in the desert. The big meal and sleep during the day made him energetic. But now, for the first time, the desert wolf went to sleep because he was too full during the day. As a result, now only the rumble of the python moving echoed in the desert. superior.

Xiaolan walked along the way and encountered a lot of wreckage on the road, but he himself did not encounter any danger, which made him confused. Could it be a ferocious beast that only comes out during the day?

Regardless of him, it was very cold in the desert at night, and Xiaolan had to keep moving to ensure that she would not be frozen by the biting cold wind.

On the other side, little William didn't know that the family guard was violently killed by Yifeng, and he continued to walk in the desert with the two of them. They couldn't judge the direction through the stars, but during the day, they unexpectedly discovered that the fractures in the bone forest could point the direction. So now they broke off the bone forest trees to determine the direction, and then moved forward to the next group of bone forest trees. Although the walking traces were crooked, they were still approaching the center.

"Little William, I have no water." Lack of water in this environment is an extremely terrifying thing, which means death is not far away.

Fortunately, William had the foresight to collect some remaining water in the water bottle from the corpse he saw when passing by.

"I'll give you half, but no one knows if we can survive the next two damn days. It's not hot yet. You can only drink a little if the heat is unbearable tomorrow. For our victory, it's appropriate Strategy is a must, and I suggest we wait until tomorrow morning and then find a place to sleep before noon to avoid the hottest period."

"According to my calculations, the probability that we can reach the center of the desert alive is 67%, but the probability of arriving within a fixed time is only 4%."

"4% is enough, we just have to take advantage of this slim chance."
