Master of Thermodynamics

Late at night.

Ya'an in the clouds has obviously moved a certain distance, and everyone has been moving forward for more than 3 hours in the confused night, and the night covering the wilderness has become particularly thick.

Tired, this is the only thought in everyone's mind at this moment.

Compared with the comfort and leisure of boating on the lake, trekking in the wilderness is indeed extremely hard, especially at night. You can't see the ground clearly when walking, and there are many steps that are deep and shallow along the way.

In addition, you have to be careful and vigilant at all times, which consumes a lot of physical energy.

Except for the strong Musi and Renault, whose physical fitness was only slightly worse than that of the awakened one, the others were already sweating and panting.

But no one complained about being tired, and the same was true for the weakest girl Lian Na. Her walking posture was almost stumbling at this time, but the girl remained silent and tried her best to keep up with the team's progress.

Good looked at his sister worriedly from time to time, but he didn't have the energy to help Lian Na. He had already shouldered most of the groceries that the brothers and sisters were responsible for, and his physical strength was also very high.

As for the three masters and ladies, as servants, the brothers and sisters understood the responsibilities of servants deeply, but they did not have the nerve to ask the masters to help the servants with the groceries.

Only when encountering rugged and difficult terrain will Renault and Moose take the initiative to help others. At other times, everyone can only rely on themselves, even Angela.

Because they are fleeing, not outing, everyone must be conscious of not dragging down the team.

After secretly paying attention to everyone's status, Renault suddenly whispered: "Everyone, please stop and take a rest first!"

He has now become the well-deserved leader of the team, and even his swordsmanship teacher Mus will carry out his orders to the letter.

The others immediately breathed a sigh of relief, finally able to rest.

Moose and Goode immediately put down their backpacks, took out their weapons and cut the nearby grass, preparing to clear a safer resting area. Angela and Lina also started busy organizing things, preparing food and water for everyone to replenish their strength. .

Renault also had his own work to do. He directly activated [Psychic Power], soared into the sky, and stood in the soft night wind. He looked at the distant terrain with the extremely dim moonlight.

The undulating land was rendered with a thick layer of ink by the dark night, extending to the sky. The entire world was completely transformed into gray and black. It looked like a demonic realm. There seemed to be countless human-eating beasts lurking in the darkness.

Renault's eyes quickly focused on a low hill 6 or 7 kilometers away. On the hill were vaguely visible tall trees, which seemed to be a forest.

He lowered the mental power of inputting the rune array, and his figure slowly descended. After his feet touched the ground, he said: "There is a hill in front of you on the left. Let's go directly to camp there..."

Angela silently waved her fist after hearing this, and the atmosphere in the team instantly became more relaxed. The exhaustion of traveling all the way was about to end, and they finally had enough rest time.

Mus and Goode quickly cleared an open space about 10 meters in radius. Renault raised his right hand to signal everyone to temporarily withdraw from the area.

The heat flowed quickly to the rest area, the ground began to slowly heat up, and everyone smelled the unique smell of baking earth.

A large number of insects hidden in the soil frantically emerged from the soil and hurriedly fled to the grass in the distance. There were densely packed small insects on the ground. Their number made everyone shocked.

These unlucky little things can be considered to have suffered an unforeseen disaster. They were originally "worms sitting at home" in good condition, but in the end, "trouble came from the sky", and their "house" was turned into an oven by the evil spirit Renault.

These little guys also had to flee their homes and were forced to embark on a journey of escape.

Some smaller insects that move slower are even more unlucky.

Before they could escape from the area, they were dried by the high temperature of the soil, and there was a "cracking" sound on the ground.

They were actually... fried!

These "self-exploded" little guys have a lot of juice inside their bodies. Under the influence of high temperature, the tissue fluid expands, and the relatively fragile shell can no longer withstand the strong internal pressure.

Then, the tragedy happened.

However, after witnessing the scene of the tragedy, instead of showing a trace of sympathy on everyone's faces, they showed expressions of joy.

After all, no one wants to accidentally collapse the "house" of these little things while sitting on the ground, and then be "greeted" hard by the angry little guy.

After baking for a while, Renault reversed the flow of heat, and the temperature of the soil dropped directly to below zero, and a thin layer of frost appeared on the ground instantly.

Considering that there may be some perverted things that can withstand high temperatures, low-temperature freezing is also necessary. Sudden cold and sudden heat are enough to kill these monsters produced by magic energy mutation.

After baking and freezing, the ground is considered clean.

Only then did everyone sit on the ground with peace of mind, sighing with great satisfaction, enjoying their late night snacks and recovering their exhausted energy.

There was a sound of gobbling in the field. After Sansha finished eating his share of dry food, he began to walk around the two girls with his head shaking.

Angela and Lina touched the dog's head, which felt good to the touch, from time to time, and stuffed it with a handful of dried meat.

When San Sha was being stroked on the dog's head, he squinted his dog eyes with an expression of enjoyment, and even started to gently wag his tail.

This cute look endeared the two girls more and more, and they fed more diligently.

Renault glanced at this bitch, and he couldn't help but admire him a little. No one taught it, but this guy actually learned to be cute without any teacher, and he used it to eat and drink.

It's just that this guy is much bigger than the two girls. It looks a bit funny as a giant creature circles around two little things and tries to look flattering.

However, Sansha obviously has a very good grasp of strength. He rubbed against the girls, but never used too much force, and the girls didn't even sway.

This guy has only been cute a few times, but his skill proficiency has reached the level of proficiency!

After a short rest, everyone set off again.

As expected, San Sha took the lead and ran far ahead. Renault flew into the air from time to time to observe the direction, calibrate the forward route, and avoid going astray.

After traveling more than half the distance, when Renault took off again, he suddenly saw a very thin ray of fire.

Fire?

He perked up and was about to take a closer look when the fire suddenly disappeared, which made him confused.

Renault stared straight at the dark forest for a long time. It was only when the girl urged him impatiently that he had to regretfully end his observation.

As his figure slowly descended, he accidentally looked up again, and then he suddenly discovered that the fire appeared again!

Obviously, there is indeed firelight in the forest, but the lush trees block the firelight tightly. Only when the branches and leaves are blown by the night wind, a few rays of light will occasionally leak out.

This discovery also made everyone excited.

It's very simple. The existence of fire is most likely man-made!

In other words, there may be someone in the forest.

What Renault and others need most now is to find someone to ask for directions and figure out their location.

After they left the Black Witch Pond, they wandered in the wilderness for a long time and had no idea where they were or where they were going.

The "living map" Gude has no location, how can he still "navigate"?

But if you want to ask for directions, you must first meet a living person before you can ask for directions!

So this ray of fire was simply a timely rain.

Everyone immediately accelerated their march, and Renault simply rushed to the front of the team and used [Psychic Power] to clear the way for everyone.

Wherever he went, the grass here fell to both sides, making way for a way, just like the subjects welcoming the king. Others no longer had to work hard to push aside the grass, they only needed to follow Renault. The forward speed increased several times instantly.

When approaching the bottom of the hill, Angela suddenly said in a hurried tone: "Three idiots smelled some strange smells nearby, and the traces of residual magic energy disturbance were very obvious..."

Renault felt a chill in his heart and couldn't help but ponder.

San Sha's perception is absolutely correct. The more obvious the traces of magic energy disturbance are, the stronger the opponent's strength is.

Are the people in the forest very powerful? But the kingdom has been in decline for so long, and almost all powerful ability users have left the kingdom.

Is it really such a coincidence that I happen to meet another strong man in the wild?

This is impossible!

Then there is only one other possibility. The traces of magic energy disturbance are left by some kind of powerful creature!

But the question is, if powerful creatures appear here, are those people still alive now?

While Renault was contemplating, everyone else looked at him quietly, waiting for his final decision.
