The cheerful laughter echoed in my ears, and the muffled sound of puffing puffing sounds were endless, and the coolness of the night breeze was refreshing.

But Raymond suddenly turned around, his eyes were filled with surprise and confusion.

Because just under the water beside him, a hidden aura was becoming stronger, which actually triggered the gathering of free energy around him!

Becky, a girl who noticed the abnormality at the bottom of the water, also grabbed Crystal, who was happily collecting sand crystals, and dragged her back to Raymond with unwillingness.

In less than half an hourglass, most of the sand crystals collected from the Dutong Sha Man were given to Cristal. So although her body has not yet reached the semi-substantial level, it is no longer the phantom of the past. Obviously, those sand crystals have great effect on her.

Crystal, who was dragged back by force, was obviously very dissatisfied, but the girl Becky, who pulled her back to Raymond, also turned her eyes to the slowly rippling water surface, with doubts between her eyebrows and eyes.

When Raymond stopped, he carefully checked several times. Although these single-eyed sand men who emerged from the yellow sand seemed to appear along with the dust storm, he clearly understood that these single-eyed sand men were obviously hiding under the yellow sand before, and could avoid the investigation he perceived.

It seems that these single-eyed sand people will produce energy fluctuations when they are active, and then they will be noticed by them, because when they are hidden in the yellow sand, they are no different from ordinary yellow sand.

He checked this small pond in the center of the oasis with great detail. Raymond had carefully investigated the source of the spring water in the middle of the water, and even the hidden and subtle water veins hidden hundreds of meters under the yellow sand had been clearly explored by him.

So when such a hidden energy fluctuation suddenly appeared at the bottom of the water, and it also caused the gathering of free energy nearby, he was also alert while puzzled.

The turmoil generated from the bottom of the water formed circles on the water surface, but the originally clear pond is now unable to be penetrated by sight. As the free energy gathered from all directions submerged into the water surface, the entire water surface solidified in an instant as if it was frozen!

Although the line of vision is still impossible to penetrate, the reflection of the crescent moon appears on the water surface, and a shadow soon appears at the end of the crescent moon. It spreads to the entire water surface in an instant!

The protective barrier released by Raymond protected Cristal and Cristal around him, and the shadows filled with the entire water surface seemed to be squirming at this moment. From the edge of the water surface, it gathered towards the center and raised it. Finally, a huge creature composed entirely of shadow appeared in the center of the pond!

Like a flying fish, like a beast but not a beast. If you have to describe it, it is like a monster pieced together with a fish tail, a horse's body, a snake's neck, and a lion's head.

It was several meters high. But the surface of this monster, which did not exist in a physical existence, had a faint light shining. And he immediately lowered his head to Raymond and said in Gutoris. "Dear, sir, Toby pays tribute to you..."

The tone is awkward and hoarse, but every syllable is extremely clear.

Since it was a smart creature that took the initiative to communicate, Raymond, who nodded and asked directly, "Torby? Are you the master of this oasis?"

The eyes on the huge lion's head lit up, and the slender snake neck was bent to make its head on the same level as Raymond to show respect. "This oasis is my residence, and this pond is my place..."

Tobi, who belongs to some kind of strange spirit, is the lord of this oasis, but although it has been entrenched here for thousands of years, the single-eyed sandmen in the desert still regard it as an enemy. Every time at the end of the month when the sandstorm passes, they will attack its territory.

After a little explanation, Toby, who was strange but extremely large, retreated to the other end of the pond after apologizing to Raymond. At this time, the free energy gathered by it had formed an energy vortex over the pond, making a whimpering sound.

But just when magic light appeared in its open lion's mouth, Becky, the girl who had been holding Crystal's little hand, rushed to it in vain, crossed her hands and made a stop gesture and shouted. "Stop! I want all these sand crystals with single-eyed sand people! You can't kill them like this!"

The lion's mane fluttered in the night wind, which made it extremely powerful, but the girl Becky, who held the comb in one hand, looked like she was not giving in.

Toby, who was stunned for a moment, closed his mouth and turned slightly to his head and his pupils, was filled with annoyance. He saw her rushing up to confront the giant, and he also appeared beside her. His hands were clawed as if they were threatening Toby, baring his teeth at it!

Unexpectedly, Cristel was so Raymond, and she couldn't help but appear next to her. Although Toby, who was empty in front of her, seemed not very strong, he had no way to target such a life form. He could only use the strength of the protective barrier brought by his own realm to protect Cristel.

Toby, who was a little angry just now, had to relax when he saw this. Its eyes were bent on the Sandmen who were alone and seemed a little embarrassed. He felt a lot of helplessness in his pupils. He looked at Raymond and the two girls who were protected by him, and then he bowed his head and promised. "Dear lord, these Sandmen who were alone can leave them to deal with, but you must ensure that they will not touch the pond, otherwise I will have great trouble..."

Hearing this, the girl Becky snorted with some dissatisfaction, pulled Crystal, who was still demonstrating at Toby, and rushed towards the Sandmen with the only eyes.

I don’t know how the girl Becky explained to Crystal, but I heard the sound of puffing and puffing quickly became dense, and the two of them turned into a series of afterimages under the night sky, which actually accelerated the collection of sand crystals, and made the single-eyed sand people gathered from the outside of the oasis unable to get close to the thirty meters of the pond.

The sight of Toby who had been following them was relaxed for a moment, and Raymond, who had been looking at it, deliberately or unintentionally blocked between Toby and Crystal.

Seeing this, a clear Toby flashed in his pupils, he slowly crawled down and placed the huge lion's head on the fish tail, making his body roll up, indicating that he had no malice towards Cristall and the others.

Since Toby was in such a position, Raymond tried to chat with it, because he could not collect the sand crystals in the body of the single-eyed sand man, so he asked about the reason.

The strength is not very high, but his life form is somewhat similar to that of Toby, who is like a spiritual body, as if he has not communicated with someone for a long time. After a while, he began to talk endlessly.

After its explanation, Raymond realized that these single-eyed sand people are variants of the earth element. They are naturally generated in the dry desert in this tower, but as long as there is no activity, there will be no energy fluctuations, and naturally they will not be induced by perception.

Raymond is a wizard with a strong existence, so it is difficult for him to collect sand crystals from these single-eyed sand people. Only elemental bodies or spiritual bodies similar to the single-eyed sand people can be peeled out from their bodies.

"The strongest individual in this area is just like this, but if you continue to go deeper, you should pay attention to a golden single-eyed sand man. It is the king of the entire tower dry desert, and it is said to be the guardian left by ancient wizards here..."

The casual chat made Raymond know something about the dry desert in the tower. When dawn approached, the Sand people who were still gathering towards the oasis suddenly stopped moving forward and got into the yellow sand and hid.
