Battle in the Sandstorm
"The transport truck is gone!" Xu Huo spun around. The truck that had fallen back to the ground just a moment ago had vanished!
"Could they be after the trucks?" Wan Tingfang asked, looking shocked. "They went to all this trouble just to steal a truck?"
"It's not the truck!" Xu Huo said at once. "Can the Repair Device be put in an item or the game's Storage Compartment?"
"No." Shi Youzhi finally understood. He leaped down from the truck and said, "Protect the Station!"
"You two stay on the truck." Ai Jia gave Xu Huo and Wan Tingfang a quick instruction, then got off with the other team members. But before they could enter the Station, a sandstorm suddenly rose in the desert. A dark mass of sand swept over the entire Station!
The sandstorm was far more powerful than Xu Huo's Desert Windmill could manage. Protected by the Soap Bubble, he escaped the storm's impact, but the transport truck beneath his feet was shifting from its original position!
"Sea Stabilizing Needle!" Wan Tingfang, who had stayed on the truck with him, took out a stone tablet engraved with the words "Sea Stabilizing Needle" and placed it on the truck. The vehicle, which had been drifting and swaying, immediately steadied in the storm.
The space outside the Soap Bubble was almost packed solid with sand. They couldn't see what was happening outside, let alone hear a thing.
Wan Tingfang held the stone tablet and turned toward Xu Huo, looking uneasy. But she saw his gaze moving over the sand.
"What are you looking at?" She followed his gaze.
Xu Huo didn't answer. Instead, he drew the Bright Red Sword and swung it toward the front left!
"What are you doing?!" Wan Tingfang's expression changed dramatically.
