On the day of the Praise of the Gods Festival, the Silver City world was dancing with snowflakes. The crisscrossed colored flags were hanging all over the streets and alleys of the city. People flocked to the streets in groups to watch the float parade. Squads of flying machines flew over and scattered colorful debris all over the sky.

At this moment, on the other end of the Satre Gate, on the boundless red Gobi Desert, there was another scene. A wisp of white fish spread across the horizon, bringing some light to this desolate world. The earth seemed to have just awakened, and everything was hazy.

The morning of Desert Five was as cold as ever. The night wind blew gently, and the sparse vegetation moved with the wind. In the faint morning light, it was like the hands of the undead stretching out from the ground, withered and thin, exceptionally seeping.

“Squeak.”

Suddenly, a few soft sounds came, and a ball of grass moved, and a fat gerbil emerged. He pricked up his ears and looked around alertly. His eyes were dripping and shining brightly in the dim light.

“Rustle rustle rustle …”

A gust of night wind blew by, and the grass and leaves rubbed against each other, making a faint sound. After observing for a while, the gerbil did not notice anything unusual. It bent down and slowly moved towards another bush, sticking to the gravel and red earth on the ground.

Suddenly, a dagger appeared above its head. A cold light flashed and stabbed straight down.

“Ji!” The gerbil let out a shrill scream and kicked its hind leg, bringing along a small pile of sand and pouncing forward.

“Ceng!” As soon as he landed, the friction sound of a sharp weapon piercing into the sand came from behind him. Before he could take a second step, a sharp sound of a sharp weapon piercing through the air came from the side.

Gerbils survive in the vast wilderness and hunt under the eyes of many hungry predators because of their innate alertness and agility. Its thighs were very developed, and it could fly three to four meters away in a flash. Its forelimbs were astonishingly balanced. Its waist could rotate by 270 degrees, and its neck could tilt back by 75 degrees. It could perform movements that were several times more complex than humans.

A tenth of a second later, a dark wind blew over from the side. It twisted its waist, swung its tail, and rolled a few times in succession.

“Ceng!” Another sharp blade pierced into the ground.

Soon after, the gerbil rolled over and rushed forward.

At the same time, the two figures gradually appeared in the air. They looked at each other helplessly.

In the blink of an eye, the gerbil flew dozens of meters away. However, at this moment, a huge black shadow that looked like a small mountain shot up from the ground and pressed down on it.

‘”Whoosh” The gerbil turned around and stopped. Its tail swept across the sand and gravel on the ground. Then, it kicked its leg hard and rushed sideways.

As soon as it dodged the black shadow, a small amount of starlight rushed towards it. Its pupils grew larger and larger, and it abruptly pulled its front foot sideways, rolling once again to avoid a fatal attack.

“Shit!” Immediately after, a spear pierced through the air and pierced into its previous position.

“Ji Ji!”

Looking at the running gerbils and smelling the faint smell of dust, the two screams were like ridicule. The black pig took a bah, while Zhao Wenke drew his spear and shrugged at him.

After the gerbil ran a few meters, another black shadow suddenly rushed out. Its movements were as fast as lightning, reaching straight for its neck. The gerbil stopped once more, twisted its waist, flung its tail, and kicked its legs. It drew a small arc and flew sideways. However, the predator behind him was like a shadow. No matter how it turned and circled, the predator would be able to catch up in time.

As time passed, the black shadow behind him pressed down bit by bit. In the blink of an eye, there was only a few meters left.

Seven meters, six meters, five meters …

Seeing that the gerbils were getting closer and closer, Tie Zha tightened his back and his two longest legs were ready to pierce through his target. However, at this moment, a flash of fire flashed in the distance, and with a “bang”, the prey that was about to be caught was sent flying.

“Wow! I hit it, I hit it!” Sofia stood up with his sniper rifle and shouted excitedly.

“Sister, you’ve caused trouble.” The old bull sighed.

“What’s the matter?” Sophia asked. As soon as she finished speaking, Tie Zha came over.

“This is what you’re going to eat tonight.” He said expressionlessly, threw a gerbil tail on the ground, and then turned around to leave.

Mu Qianhe patted Sophia on the shoulder and laughed, “Beautiful girl, congratulations on obtaining the first prey of the day ~”

Just as Sophia was about to reply, she heard Tie Zha roar angrily, “Whoever dares to follow me again, don’t eat tonight!”

Not long after, everyone lay obediently behind a pile of dirt and looked at Tie Zha who was stealthily walking alone from afar.

“How did he catch him?” The Black Pig King asked.

“I didn’t see it.” Zhao Wenke replied.

Ever since Tie Zha caught the first gerbil, everyone had been eager to try. They all felt that it wasn’t difficult. In the end, they had messed with him several times, but they didn’t even touch the gerbil’s tail. The people of Elda called the gerbils “sand elves”. They were all related to myths, so it could be seen how difficult it was to capture them.

“Do you know any skills?” Lilith asked.

“Sigh, I haven’t seen it clearly for many years, let alone you guys.” Old Niu said foolishly.

Actually, what they didn’t know was that only Old Man Tie was capable of catching gerbils. In order to catch his prey, he could lie motionlessly on the ground for hours.

As for Tie Zha, he relied on a thin amount of Origin Energy that he had never figured out before. In fact, gerbils are not fast, but they are more nimble and have burrowed holes everywhere. Because of the existence of Origin Energy, he was able to predict the escape direction of the gerbil, so he was able to catch it.

“I don’t believe it!” The Black Pig King said gloomily.

“Carefully observe his movements. Perhaps he really has some skill.” Zhao Wenke guessed.

“Yes.” Tie Ling nodded. The three of them didn’t take Old Niu’s words seriously. After all, he was a mechanic. Whether it was agility or speed, he was far inferior to the other combatants.

A few minutes later, everyone was calmly observing Tie Zha’s movements when a figure suddenly appeared in their line of sight, lying on the ground and crawling forward.

It turned out to be an old bull! Because everyone didn’t take his words seriously, he gradually felt that he really had some skill that he had missed out on in the past. So, driven by curiosity and his short-sightedness, he crawled towards Tie Zha.

“Shit.” The Black Pig King couldn’t help but shout. Then, he lowered his voice and said, “Quickly stop him. Otherwise, everyone won’t have anything to eat at night.”

For dinner, everyone quickly came to a consensus.

The old bull crawled up and down. Suddenly, his body sank. Just as he turned around, he was dragged back by a sweaty dress.

The old bull struggled, but it was not as strong as the Black Pig King and Tie Ling. In the end, it was dragged back to the pile of dirt and tied into dumplings.

A few hours later, just as Tie Zha and the others were returning with a few bags of gerbils, Bai Xiaoyun, Queen, and Hillman came together again. However, this time, there was one more person, Hillman’s girlfriend, Bicky Mordleton Jr.

“I haven’t studied many subjects in the past, only fifty to sixty.” Bai Xiaoyun said. This time, he had learned well and would not compete with these two hooligans for spoils of war.

“Our library has no new books for me.” Hillman hugged Becky and said indifferently.

“I… I have never read, nor can I read.” Quinn said proudly, “But I’ve killed a lot of scholars.”

“What’s the point of talking about fighting and killing all day long?” Bai Xiaoyun said with disdain.

“Yes, that’s right. A real man must be able to go to war and read psalms.” Hillman looked at Becky and asked, “Baby, do you think so?”

Bicky nodded shyly.

“This” Quinn looked a little embarrassed, but Bai Xiaoyun didn’t intend to let him off. He continued, “Who can beat the Black Pig King in a fight? Can you fight? But …” He smiled and said, “I have professional knowledge. Boss, if you have any problems, you can discuss it with me.”

“Can you fix a light bulb?” Quinn thought for a moment and asked.

“No.” Bai Xiaoyun said.

“Our big boss, who is also the chairman of Syris Investment Co., Ltd., often comes to me to fix electric light bulbs.” Quinn paused for a moment before adding, “You still need me to drive.”

Just as the three of them were bragging to each other, Tie Zha, who had returned to the office, washed his hands, picked up the communicator and dialed Mu Yu Ling Lan’s voice.

“Happy Praise Day, innocent youth. May the glory of the gods bring us happiness.” After connecting, a quiet and pleasant voice came from the other side.

“I also wish you a happy holiday” Tie Zha said in an accentuated tone, “Brother.”

“Hahaha ~” A string of silver-bell-like laughter immediately came from the other side. It was Mu Yuqinxin. She had just robbed her sister’s communicator and wanted to play tricks on her lover.

“Young man, do you wish to express your festive blessings to the Rain God’s sacrifice?” Not long after, Mu Yu’s calm voice that was unique to Ling Lan came from over there.

“Yes.” Tie Zha said seriously.

“Then kneel down.” Mu Yu Ling Lan said casually.

‘”Uh” Tie Zha choked.

“Since you are a heretic, I allow you to kneel on one knee.” The goddess relaxed her conditions.

“I refuse.” He said in a deep voice, his tone resolute and unquestionable.

“If you agree, I’ll leave you two pieces of cheese bread.” She said seductively.

“I still refuse.” His mind is very firm.

“If you refuse, the gods will punish you.” Mu Yu Ling Lan threatened, and then she lengthened her voice, “Unless …”

“Unless what?” Tie Zha asked.

The goddess closed the door and opened another window.

“After a while, the mining area will be ready.” Said Tie Zha.

After the insect tide, workers from Sequoia and Sakata Industries returned to the mining area and started operating again. If he didn’t get rid of these two wolves, he wouldn’t dare to leave without worry.
