Lord Of The World: I Become The Lord Of The Desert From The Start



Richard didn't delay any longer after he made a series of arrangements. He prepared to set off as he gazed at the millstone-sized moon above his head.

However, at this moment, a private message notification suddenly sounded in his ear.

Frowning slightly, He waved his hand to stop the troop. He sparingly frowned and opened the private message.

[Hyena: Boss Qingqiu, this is a crucial matter. The lord of dunes robbed a merchant group of an Earl in Solan City… Vital treasures were in that merchant association. That Earl has already gathered five squadrons of soldiers and headed to the desert.]

[The Earl has also gathered the players to go with him. This is an A-rank mission. Do you want to go and take a look?]

"A-rank mission?"

Richard raised an eyebrow.

A strong sense of vigilance rose in his heart. Danger filled his missions based on previous encounters, although the A-rank mission wasn't remarkable as the S-rank mission. He could quickly fail if he weren't careful.

'What was the background of that Dune Lord?'

Richard still replied to Hyena after he pondered.

[Qingqiu: I'm preparing to go to Solan City. I expect to arrive tomorrow afternoon or evening.]

[Hyena: That's a pity. We could not make it in time. Let's set off now…]

[Qingqiu: Be careful. An A-rank mission is dangerous. It's best to keep a certain distance from the main force. You'd give up some credit to ensure your safety.]

The words have extremely touched Hyena. 

[Hyena: Boss Qingqiu, don't worry, we know what to do.]

Richard flew out of Twilight City with his troop after he instructed Hyena to report to him if a problem arose.

The skeleton blood dragon and the stone statue of the dead were both flying units, and the sandstorm controller was not bad either. This unit that combined two powerful spellcasting units had a very soul-crushing skill--Sandstorm Transformation.

It was also the source of the name of this troop.

The skill Richard valued the most was one he could indefinitely use whenever there was magic.

They only consumed 5 points of magic per second when the enemies attacked. They could recover more than 10 points per second.

It covered consumption.

Richard sat behind Alves, who had a more than the forty-meter wingspan. The moon was above his head, and an endless sea of sand was below him.

The skeleton blood dragon burned with blood-colored power and flew with him.

In the end, a large group of stone statues of the dead orderly marched. Their wings, which seemed to be carved from rock, flapped and made a whistling sound.

The thing that shocked them the most was…

A sandstorm that could make any living being in the desert tremble was mixed in with this vast troop.

It flew wildly.

However, the sandstorm did not cause any damage to the soldiers inside. Instead, it increased their flying speed.

This scene looked like a scene from a myth. And it had a potent visual effect.

November 11th, 8 AM.

The sun rose from the yellow sand. Its orange color made it look like a furnace fire that ignited the world.

Richard glanced at it. They were still four to five hundred kilometers away from Solan City after a whole night of flying.

He was happy. The overall speed of the troop exceeded 500 kilometers with the support of the sandstorm controller.

This also allowed him to discover another practical use of the sandstorm controller.

They would greatly help him transport goods even if he didn't use them in battle in the future.

Richard was about to ask Alves to speed up but suddenly paused and opened his private message.

[Hyena: Boss Qingqiu, it's over. It's all over. The Dune Lord ambushed the Earl's troop and wiped it out… The Earl died tragically on the spot.]

[That's a level 19 hero. Although I can't see its potential, it's definitely above B-rank. It's even possible that it's A-rank.]

[It slayed more than half of the players who followed them. The rest are still being defeated.]

[Fortunately, we listened to you and stayed 20 kilometers from the main troop. That's why they couldn't surround us.]

Richard raised an eyebrow. He had just said he would eliminate the Dune Lord last night, and it wiped the enemies out overnight. Was the lord too strong, or was the Earl too weak?

[Qingqiu: Did you see the Dune Lord? How strong is he?]

[Hyena: No, we only saw a giant condensed from yellow sand appear. That giant led three large groups of level 15 soldiers and destroyed the Earl of Solan's troop in one wave.]

[It's too terrifying. That yellow sand giant killed a level 19 Earl.]

[Boss Qingqiu, it's best to go straight to Solan City. I can sense the current players could not deal with this.]

[Maybe it's another large-scale mission…]

Richard thought for a moment and replied.

[Qingqiu: Send me the coordinates first.]

Hyena did not dare to delay and immediately shared the coordinates.

Richard imported the system map and was surprised to find that it was less than a hundred kilometers away from him.

This distance was only a matter of ten to twenty minutes for the flying troops.

He did not hesitate and immediately changed direction after he comforted Hyena. He led the leading troop toward the coordinates.

A group of three to five scattered soldiers appeared in his line of sight ten minutes after.

A few players were still in shock.

They were not far from the battlefield.

They sped up in the opposite direction of the fleeing soldiers. A terrifying roar suddenly resounded in the sky in less than five minutes.

Richard turned toward the direction of the voice.

A giant condensed from yellow sand roared in the sky.

The other party's body was more than 30 meters tall. It stood in the desert. It was like an ancient demon god.
