Chapter 141: Search In the early morning of March 7, a small airship crossed the Longmian Desert and came to the sky above the city of Medes.
A tall, thin man in black armor jumped out of the airship and entered the city of Medes silently like a bat, and in a short time, a magical light lit up from the square of the city, and the airship slowly fell to the ground according to the instructions of the light.
As soon as the airship stopped, a group of warriors in black armor walked down from the airship in silence, and a tall and strong silver-haired man stepped off the airship, and the black-armored warrior who came down first immediately walked over.
"Lord Payne, we've searched all around, but we haven't found any soul eaters or sands."
The Black-Armored Warrior reported.
The man named Payne looked around at the dark ghost city of Medes before asking again, "Harvey, do you think it's possible that there are survivors?"
” "It's not very likely, but I've found out that the city's underground waterways are very complex, and if there are survivors, they may be hiding there."
The man in black armor removed his helmet, and it turned out that he was Harvey, the executioner officer who had participated in the capture of the beast dragon.
"It's a waste of time, but if we want to find those ground rats, we'll need to get some clues from the survivors, and you'll lead the warriors to search the underground waterways, and the mages will see if they can find any useful clues from those battle tracks."
The man, Payne, listened to Harvey's words and immediately gave instructions to the executioners.
Forty executioner soldiers then entered the underground waterways in search of possible survivors, while the remaining dozen mages lit a magical glow and began searching for clues.
The ground around the city of Medes was sandy, and at night it was almost self-defeating for humans to chase the sand who could lurk in the sand, and this team of executioners who were initially sent out was mainly responsible for taking out the possible soul eaters, and the task of exterminating the sand tribe was ultimately left to the fire worshippers of the Duke of Adra.
After two hours, the search on the ground finally progressed, and in addition to the images of the lizardmen killing and eating people, the mages noticed that some of the bloated and fat lizardmen seemed to be looking for something, and they were surrounded by lizard warriors constantly releasing some kind of detection magic and followed towards an ancient complex of buildings in the city of Medes.
Payne was about to gather the fighters to find out what was going on, but before he could pull out his communicator, Harvey crawled out of the well with a curled teenager.
"Master Payne, we found this kid in the waterway."
Harvey placed the boy on the ground, and the brown-skinned boy in a simple vest and bloomers glanced timidly at the tall, white-skinned humans.
"Don't be afraid, young man, we were sent by Lord Adela to help you, do you know where the lizardmen have gone?"
A magician tried to communicate with the boy in the language of fire.
The timid boy swallowed a mouthful of saliva after looking at the mage and the murderous black-armored warriors who were making kind faces, and suddenly raised his head and shouted at the mage.
"You weren't sent by the big boss!
You're humans on the other side of the desert, and Hapa has seen people like you among the sandtribes, and you're all bad people!
The boy looked around, and when he realized that there was no way to escape, he suddenly shouted hysterically.
Looking at the boy who suddenly collapsed, the magician had no choice but to look at one of his companions.
"Peace of mind!"
An invisible force was exerted on the boy named Harpa, and the boy immediately calmed down after being let go of the magic.
"So we can communicate, young man, you see we didn't kill you or eat you, and if we were the lizardmen's accomplices, do you think we wouldn't know where they went?"
The magician communicated with the boy again.
"Well, I believe your words, I was so scared just now, everyone was killed and eaten by those Sand people, Abba sent me into the waterway before fighting with the Sand Tribe, he said that I am the last blood of the Zaratu family and cannot be broken, but what should I do if everyone dies."
The young man became more and more excited as he spoke, as if even the spiritual spell was about to fail, and the magician saw this scene and quickly made up for it to Harpa, and then made a look at the leader of the magician.
After seeing his companion's eyes, the magician knew that if he didn't ask the question quickly, the boy would probably have another nervous breakdown, so the magician immediately went straight to the point after comforting the boy a few words.
"Do you know where those lizardmen went, or what they were looking for when they attacked here?"
"The temple left by the sages, they said that the key to the temple was in the city of Medes."
The boy thought for a moment and then suddenly shouted.
"Do you know where the temple is?"
The magician asked.
"I don't know."
Harpa said, shaking her head.
"What about the key, has the key been robbed?"
The magician asked unrelentingly.
"Harpa doesn't know."
The boy shook his head again.
"Lady Payne, look?"
The magician turned to Payne and asked.
"Take this boy with us, let's go and join the army of the Duke of Adra, maybe the Zoroastrian priests will know more."
Paynes thought about it for a moment and ordered.

"Yes, sir."
The black-armored warriors responded in unison.
In the wee hours of the morning, the executioner forces completed their search for the city of Medes, and they flew on the airship with Hapa, who had already taken sleep pills, and flew towards the southern central part of the Pyro, while some strong, dark-skinned warriors were riding camels in the direction of the city of Medes with scimitars in hand.
At noon on March 7, the advance force of the executioners arrived at Zoroastria, the capital of the Zoroastrian Order, which is also a sacred place for Zoroastrianism, and the Duke of Adra, who had rushed back through the teleportation array, immediately met Payne and his party.
"Temple?
Isn't the temple in Zoroas?
Adela said with a strange look on his face after hearing Payne's mention, he didn't believe that the Sands and the Soul Eaters would not know where the Zoroastrian Temple was.
"Obviously, if the temple was a Zoroastrian temple, then the Sand wouldn't be looking for any keys."
Payne, who was sitting cross-legged on the carpet, tapped on the low table in front of him.
"Well, you're right, I'll immediately ask the priests to check the historical materials to see if there are any other temples in the Fire Worship Realm."
Duke Adela nodded when he heard Payne's words, and then immediately summoned the Zoroastrian priests who were in charge of managing the books.
"Great Chief, there was indeed another temple in history, that temple was the first Zoroastrian temple established by the sage Zoroaster, but then that temple was buried in the desert by the wind and sand, and the descendants of the sage came here with the canon to build the temple of Zoroastria."
After consulting the historical records, the head priest reported to the Duke of Adra.
"So those damn lizardmen are going to dig up our temple!?"
Adela jumped up from the carpet when he heard the words of the sacrifice, the Duke was the most devout follower of Zoroastrianism, and when he heard that the Sand Clan's target was his own temple, he immediately became furious.
"Yes, Great Chief, this is war, and we must protect the sleeping temple, and no one should be allowed to disturb the souls of the sages who sleep in the temple."
The priest nodded in reply.
"In that case, what are we waiting for!"
Duke Adela drew the Adamantite scimitar from his waist, and all the priests and guards shouted excitedly.
"War!
War!
” The Pyro-Leader then mobilized rapidly, and 200,000 Zoroastrian warriors and priests on camels were assembled to begin a search for the lizardmen, and subsequent reinforcements from the executioners' forces arrived.
On March 9th, another border city was attacked, and the executioner troops arrived by airship engaged in a fierce battle with the Sand Tribe, according to the survivors of the city, the Sand people snatched a sun stone disk they had enshrined in the temple, and at this time the humans finally determined that what the Sand people wanted was a set of stone plates with the sun, moon and stars depicted on it, and this was the key to the temple.
The stone plate was found by humans in a temple in another city, and the stone plate was immediately transported to the Zoroastrian temple for the priests to study, and soon the priests who were proficient in astrology quickly demarcated the possible location of the temple.
On March 13, on the edge of the Longmian Desert, Austin was leading his team on a difficult trek through the desert.
"Damn sand, why did the headquarters send me here to find that bullshit temple, doesn't he know that Uncle Austin is a snowfield barbarian!?"
Austin complained loudly as he poured water.
"Captain, if you don't speak, you can save a lot of water."
A black-armored soldier grumbled as he shook his nearly empty kettle.
"Fuck off, if Uncle Austin keeps his mouth shut, then he's going to have to complain with his axe!"
Austin said after turning around and tapping on the soldier's metal helmet.
"Oh, Captain, you've never been so nagging when you're at home."
The soldier's words immediately struck a chord with his companions.
"Yes, Captain, you didn't see you complain to Daisy with a tomahawk when you were at home." "!
Don't you know there's a big axe underneath Uncle Austin!?
Austin said with a swaggering look on his back, and his words immediately caused a wolf howl from the soldiers.
But just as the soldiers were about to continue teasing, a bony spear suddenly shot from the sand into Austin's back, and under the soldiers' reminder, the agile barbarian warrior easily turned around and grabbed the bone spear, and a large number of sandfolks were slowly crawling out of the sand.
"Hahaha, it's those lizardmen, come on!
Uncle Austin's big axe is already!
The black-armored warriors drew their weapons and headed for the lizardmen who rushed towards them.
