Master of Thermodynamics

The next moment, something surprising happened.

San Shao is furious!

A real blast!

It seemed as if it was electrocuted. The hair on its body instantly stood up and became very tough. From Renault's perspective, Sansha had gained a lot of weight.

A large number of hairs hit the surface of the mouthparts in the blink of an eye, pushing away the mouthparts that were stabbing downwards, deflecting the angle at which they stabbed, and fell down after grazing Sansha's body.

The blood mosquito stings crookedly!

Renault showed a hint of surprise. He didn't expect San Sha to have such an ability. This guy's dog hair is really amazing, and his abilities are simply unbelievable.

There was a sound of metal friction, and Musi pulled out the heavy sword. The sharp blade touched Sansha's hair and accurately hit the Xue Mosquito's abdomen, cutting it into two pieces with one sword stroke.

A false alarm.

San Shao howled "Wu Wu" and stepped on the corpse of the blood mosquito like a catharsis.

Renault breathed a sigh of relief and used [Reverse Heat Conduction] to heat the air again, and repeatedly cleaned out any remaining poisonous mosquitoes to avoid being attacked again.

After confirming that the blood mosquito swarm had gone away, everyone couldn't wait to break open the igloo. A thick layer of charred insect corpses fell around the igloo, numbering at least several hundred.

Although some venomous mosquitoes were dying, they were not dead yet. Their slender legs and feet moved slightly. A venomous mosquito near Reno sensed his presence and actually struggled to crawl towards him. Its sharp mouthparts tried its best to reach him. Stretch out.

With a look of disgust in Renault's eyes, he trampled hard on the poisonous mosquito, flattening its abdomen and causing a large amount of light red juice to splash out instantly.

※※※

At this time, everyone was standing on the edge of a swamp lake with a length of more than 1 kilometer. Filtered by various swamp plants, the lake water appeared quite clear, and the lake bottom several meters deep was clearly visible, unlike the murky water in a mud pit.

In the center of the lake, a black stone mountain stands impressively. This stone mountain is nearly 20 meters above the lake, with no green plants visible on the surface.

Renault glanced at the stone mountain in the distance, turned around and asked, "Is that where the ruins are?"

Russell replied respectfully: "Yes, the ruins are inside Black Witch Mountain, but the rainy season has just passed now, and the entrance to the ruins is still under the water."

After a pause, he added: "But I heard that by the time we reach the Wind-tracing Moon, the entrance to the ruins will be completely exposed to the water."

Renault nodded: "How do water ghosts get in and out of the ruins?"

Russell pointed to the grass on the other side: "Boss Rogge has placed a small boat there. You can first take the boat to Black Witch Mountain and then sneak into the ruins."

Renault called to Moose, and the two quickly found a 3-meter-long wooden boat in the grass. The wooden boat looked quite old, but it was barely usable.

The load of the wooden boat was not large, so everyone had to divide into two groups to go to Black Witch Mountain. Then, under the guidance of Russell, everyone successfully found the entrance.

Renault and Musi looked at each other, took a deep breath, and jumped straight into the lake. Two "plop" sounds were heard, large waves splashed high, and large ripples appeared on the lake surface.

Feeling the coolness of the lake water covering his body, Renault slowly opened his eyes. Before he could observe the rocky mountains under the water, he suddenly felt a vague wave of magic energy.

Renault was suddenly startled, with a trace of confusion on his face.

Strange, where does this fluctuation of magic energy come from?

The next moment, his expression changed drastically!

At this moment, Renault thought of the answer - Russell was up to something!

Moreover, he did not really let go of Russell. He had been guarding against Russell in his heart. After encountering an unexpected incident, his first suspicion was Russell.

The logic here is not difficult to understand. Everyone present, except Renault, cannot emit this level of magic energy fluctuations.

Therefore, the fluctuation of magic energy must come from external objects.

So what exactly could it be?

Strange object!

At this moment, the Black Witch Crystal is in Renault's arms. What can Russell use to cause the fluctuation of magic energy?

There is only one answer, Russell has a second strange object!

It turns out that the water ghost will get not one, but two strange objects from the ruins! And these two extremely rare items are both in Russell’s hands!

This shows that this guy must be the core figure of the Water Ghost Society, and has a very close relationship with Boss Rogge. Otherwise, how could the Water Ghost Society give him both rare objects?

In other words, the life experience he told at the beginning were all fabricated stories, and there was not a single word of truth in this kid's mouth!

I really didn't expect that this guy, who looked young and unattractive, was actually a movie star. His pitiful look when he was crying successfully deceived everyone, and even the experienced Moose didn't see the flaw.

Later, Russell offered the Black Witch Crystal to win the trust of Renault and others, so no one carefully searched his body.

In fact, he knew that he couldn't keep the Black Witch Crystal, so he simply handed it over to keep another rare item.

So what does Russell want to do?

Renault didn't know, but he understood that this guy must have bad intentions.

The ruins in Black Witch Mountain may be real, but the "unopened mechanism" is definitely a lie. Russell's purpose in saying this is just to arouse everyone's greed and lure Renault and others into a trap!

This guy is so insidious!

But Russell still made a mistake. He greatly underestimated Renault. Although the fluctuation of magic energy caused by the strange object was relatively obscure, Renault immediately noticed it with his strong mental power.

Renault quickly moved his hands and emerged from the water quickly. As soon as he emerged, he used [Psychic Power] to control four metal spikes to fly out of the water and shoot towards Russell, who was more than 10 meters away.

At this time, Russell was clasping his hands, staring at the lake with a vigilant face, and quietly muttering something in his mouth.

The moment Renault surfaced, Russell saw Renault and the murderous intent on Renault's face. He immediately realized that the conspiracy had been exposed, so he turned around and ran away without hesitation.

But the speed of the spikes was faster, four black shadows flashed in the air, and the sharp spikes directly penetrated Russell's limbs.

Russell felt the severe pain in his hands and feet and couldn't help but let out a miserable cry. He lost his balance and fell hard into the rocks.

Angela and others were stunned by this sudden change. They had no idea why Renault suddenly killed him. Only Sansha reacted in time, and it quickly chased after Russell who fell to the ground.

Renault glanced at Russell coldly, increased the output of his mental power, and the four spikes instantly pierced Russell's hands and feet as if being hit by a heavy hammer, cruelly nailing him to the ground, and a large amount of blood rushed out. , the ground was dyed red in an instant!

Russell cried out desperately, and his body kept twisting, trying to get rid of the spikes.

After San Sha ran up to Russell, he opened his mouth and bit his right leg without hesitation. His sharp canine teeth penetrated deeply into the muscle. Then he shook his head suddenly and tore off a large piece of muscle.

Russell let out a huge scream, and his right leg instantly became bloody and bloody, with white bones faintly visible. Then he fainted. The extreme pain triggered the brain's self-protection mechanism, causing him to temporarily lose consciousness.

San Sha is very clever. As soon as it saw the position of the metal spikes, it understood that Renault did not intend to kill Russell for the time being, but only wanted to torture him severely, so it did not attack such a fatal part of the neck.

It opened its mouth to spit out the flesh and blood in its mouth, then took another bite at Russell's left leg, tearing off a piece of flesh and blood again. The pain and stimulation made Russell wake up and let out another scream.

When San Sha was about to take the third bite, Renault shouted at the right time: "That's enough!"

It turned its head and looked at Renault, then obediently shut up.

At this time, Angela also realized something. She quickly took off the metal crossbow from her back and pointed the gleaming crossbow arrow at Russell lying on the ground.

Renault walked quickly to Russell and kicked him hard on the head. Russell fainted without saying a word. Renault grabbed Russell's collar, lifted his upper body, and put his hand in his arms. Explore.

At the same time, he shouted: "Uncle Moose, Angela, something is likely to happen later, we have to leave as soon as possible!"

Renault didn't know whether Russell had successfully activated the strange object, nor did he know what special effects the strange object had. For the sake of safety, he decided to leave Black Witch Mountain immediately.

Moose replied "Understood" and immediately called Angela and the Goode brothers and sisters to walk towards the wooden boat.

Renault searched Russell's body but still found nothing. After frowning and thinking for a moment, he suddenly saw a black cloth wrapped around Russell's left hand. He blinked and quickly pulled away the black cloth.

I saw that Russell was wearing a dark ring on the middle finger of his left hand, with clear patterns engraved on the surface.

This must be that strange object!

There was no wound on Russell's hand, so there was no need to wrap it in black cloth. The purpose of doing so was clearly to hide the ring.

Renault immediately showed joy and reached out to take off the ring on Russell's finger. After a cursory look at the pattern on the surface of the ring, he found that it seemed to look like a snake.

But there were some strange lines on the snake's body, making him unsure of what kind of creature it was.

At this time, Renault suddenly felt an extremely strong wave of magic energy coming from his feet.

Oops, this kid Russell actually succeeded in activating the strange object!

There is no doubt that the strange object awakened a certain being in the ruins. Judging from the fluctuations of magic energy, this guy is very powerful!

And he can be sure that the pattern on the strange object ring must be the creature in the ruins!
