Alpha’s Slave Luna -
Chapter 88
Otis's POV:
"Otis, the key to solving the crisis lies in the desert outside the forest."
After we hugged for a while, Conrad's voice rang in my ears.
"We are the only two inside the wolf pack that can resist the infection, and we are the only ones who can move freely with confidence, so let's leave this trip to the desert to the two of us." "Conrad, I will firmly complete this trip together with you."
I held his big warm hand tightly, and then we walked towards the stairs.
The crisis of the plague was intensifying, and we had to get a solution to the problem as fast as possible, and I wanted to restore Nell and my people to health.
The morning sun was warm and fresh, the darkness had completely passed, and when Conrad and I stepped out of the wolf pack, we immediately transformed into wolves.
The wind blew dramatically past our ears, and at this time we didn't hold back a bit, and rushed towards the direction of the gray wolves with all our speed.
Conrad's figure was in front of me, while I followed closely behind him. His dark blue fur kept fluttering with the wind, and the scent of his body entered my nostrils with the wind.
I looked fascinated at his back, a large part of the wind blowing ahead was blocked by his body, without the violent wind pressure I felt my running became easier, he was like a wind screen for me to block the gale. We traversed the woods, crossing every bush and jumping over steep rocks until these trees became thinner and thinner.
"Otis, ahead of us is where the Grey Wolves once held territory, we will soon be entering the desert, that is a place we have not explored, we need to be careful of the dangers we may encounter."
Conrad's calm voice came from ahead of me, the wind blowing ahead brought up some dryness, the sun went in the direction of our heads, and a feeling of heat crept onto my skin.
I looked towards the front, a dilapidated complex appeared in front of me, the once prosperous Grey Wolf Pack, now there was not a single werewolf left.
After so much time, the Ash Wolf Pack seemed to have been covered with a layer of dust, and this dust made the place appear like an abandoned relic. When we passed through here, we also crossed into the desert area completely.
The hard clay was slowly disappearing and soon turned into loose yellow sand, which seemed to be unable to carry our weight, and our paws sank in easily. Resistance appeared at this time.
These yellow sands are like a swamp, whenever we run, will always swallow part of our power, because of this reason, our speed slowed down a lot.
The air no longer has the fragrance trees and earth inside, there is only the dry smell of yellow sand, along with the deeper we go into the desert, the air around us is becoming even hotter. "Conrad, do you know the distance between us and our destination."
"The wolf beads only hinted at my direction, I don't know our distance."
Here, Conrad paused for a moment.
"No matter how far the destination is, we must go, it is the only hope to save the wolves."
"I understand, and I'm sure we'll be able to replace our target soon."
After saying that I glanced towards the back, the forest we were in had turned into a green line at this time, it seemed to be a carpet laid in the sky and was gradually fading from my sight.
In a short time, we will be completely integrated into the desert, and the forest will disappear completely, and at that time, the only one who can distinguish the direction may be the wolf beads in Conrad's hand. The wolf crisis gave us no time to rest, and we did not stop running until I felt some sweat had appeared between my fur.
The movement of the sun was indicating the passage of time, the air became hotter and hotter, and when I breathed, I could even feel the burning heat coming from inside my lungs.
There was golden yellow sand all around, and without the shade of the trees the sun became extra blinding, and it was as if there was a furnace above us, burning our bodies incessantly. Suddenly the burning wind blowing ahead seemed to become stronger, and I even felt some yellow sand being mixed in the wind, and gradually some yellow appeared inside the air ahead. "Damn, it's actually a sandstorm!"
At that moment Conrad's angry voice appeared in my ears, he did not hesitate to stop running and swept the surroundings with his gaze.
"Otis, follow me, we have to replace a way to escape the sandstorm!"
His eager voice drove my emotions as well, and I ran with him in the other direction until I came to a place where the ground was slightly lower.
The strength of the wind was rising wildly, and a yellow color filled the space around it, and was becoming more and more dense.
When I looked towards the distance, I contracted my pupils at this moment.
"Is this a sandstorm?"
I had some unbelievable looking in the distance, a huge pile of yellow sand rushing up into the sky, the rich yellow in outlining the shape of this sandstorm.
It seemed to be a huge monster several kilometers long and wide, and when he stood on the desert, the top of his head could almost reach the bottom of the sky.
Everything around him was so small in front of him that it could be ignored, and this monster was approaching us so frantically that I could almost see the sky in front of me being swallowed by this monster made of yellow sand. "Otis, stop looking and get down!"
Conrad's anxious voice rang out as he shielded my torso with his wide paws, then he used his strong body to block the direction the wind was blowing from.
"Otis, follow me and do it, or if the yellow sand gets into your ears or eyes, you'll have a big problem!"
We lay down on the ground in the yellow sand, and Conrad also at this moment used his dark blue furred ears to protect his ear holes, he buried his nose deep in the yellow sand below, while closing his eyes.
He said while his body and I leaned closer, his strong body as if it were a mountain that could shield the wind and rain, even in the face of the huge sandstorm that covered the sky, I did not feel a trace of fear. Suddenly the overwhelming yellow sand monster swooped in, and we were wrapped in yellow sand at this time.
I used my eyelids and my ears to resist the invasion of flying sand with all my might. I had obviously covered my ears, but the sound of the wind outside became stronger and stronger.
It was as if knives were cutting randomly in the surrounding air, a kind of random and strong wind sound was whistling incessantly, which is the unique death music in the desert.
Conrad's warm body blocked my front, but my back gradually came to some stinging pain, as the wind sound became stronger, this stinging pain is becoming more intense. That's unblocked sand slapping my back like crazy!
My heart understood this, and at the same time a kind of heartache appeared in my heart.
Just the sand that was scraped from above already made me feel the stinging pain, how much more the Conrad that was in front of me had to endure the beat.
I buried my head deep beneath his dark blue fur, and I closed my eyes and sniffed his scent carefully.
His rich fur blocked the yellow sand from entering my nostrils, and after transforming into a wolf, he had not only his own charming scent, but also a fresh fragrance unique to the dark blue fur that I couldn't help but keep inhaling. The warmth of his skin wrapped around me, and the warmth I could feel was even more intense even though I was obviously in the middle of a sandstorm.
I don't know how much time had passed, this death music of yellow sand seemed to play for a century, until the sound faded, I looked up only to replace that the blinding golden sunlight had gradually dimmed.
"Damn sandstorm, every time we use some time, one werewolf of the pack may lose his life, this is a disaster."
Suddenly Conrad stood up from beside me, cursing angrily while shaking his body incessantly.
Only then did I realize that half of his body had been filled with sand inside his fur, and as he shook the yellow sand shook off his body like a liquid and soon a yellow mound was piled up beneath him. "Otis, we don't have time, we need to keep picking up our speed!"
Conrad's fur quickly regained its suppleness, his tone was heavy inside, and the next moment he continued to run in a certain direction.
The color of the sky was rapidly dimming, a glimpse of moonlight also appeared from the other side of the sky, the heat seemed to be a demon that loved to joke, it disappeared within a short time, and the coolness appeared around me. But I did not feel a trace of relaxation at this time, because I knew that the night inside the desert was very cold.
The desert seemed to be a hell of both fire and ice, and weak people would easily lose their lives in such a hell, but we didn't stop.
This is the ordeal that must be overcome on the way to save the wolves, and I also believe in the power of the Moon God in my bloodline and my companion.
The temperature in the air dropped sharply, and the icy wind seemed to blow into my bones. The power of the Moon God's bloodline kept dispersing my coldness, and we traveled through the dark desert, heading in an unknown direction. This is a journey full of trials and tribulations, just like what Conrad once said, in order to guard the wolves, we have to cut away the thorns and walk on the sharp rocks.
Without the power of the Moon God's bloodline, I would have collapsed on the desert road a long time ago, but this power managed to help me move forward in the pain. The icy darkness soon passed, the biting cold turned to searing heat once again, and another kind of pain came until a green color appeared before my eyes. "Have we found the oasis, or is this our destination?"
I had some surprise and looked at Conrad, but he closed his eyes at this time and opened them only after two seconds, a kind of light flickering inside his eyes. "No, it's a mirage."
