Master of Thermodynamics

On the third day of Haichao’s arrival at Boot Island, when the blizzard just showed signs of abating, the ice seal carnival ended.

Taking the family as a unit, the ice seals dived into the sea in groups, left the Boot Island, and swam far away quickly against the wind, snow and waves.

The fish resources around the Boots Island are limited, and it is absolutely impossible to withstand the hunting of these 10,000 ice seals. It is the best choice to disperse to the surrounding islands, so that competition among similar species is smaller, and the "leopards" have more resources. .

As Renault expected, a group of losers among the ice seals stayed on this island forever.

He flew around the island, and the number of dead ice seals found on the rocky beach alone was more than 120. There were also more than 50 severely injured ice seals, which was slightly less than Renault's expectation.

It seems that the vitality of the ice seal is stronger than he imagined. Even if it is a loser in a fierce fight, the chance of survival is not small.

Without exception, they were bloodstained all over their bodies, their bodies were covered with large and small scars, many parts of them were confused, and even their belts were bitten off.

A very small number of ice seals lack parts of their limbs, such as nose and eyes and other head organs, and even limbs such as flippers.

It can also be seen from these miserable dead bodies how cruel the battle between male ice seals is.

Hey, why bother, just make a girl, why bother to get your life.

The high-end furs of good quality are all scrapped now...

With deep regret, Renault issued an order to clean up the body.

More than 100 crew members and island guards aboard Haichao came out and took the magic power boat to Boot Island in batches.

They will be responsible for breaking down the corpse and looking for the magic crystal in the ice seal.

Of course, the magic crystal was directly handed over to the lord's pocket. The decomposed seal skin, fat, meat, etc., were temporarily stored in a warehouse piled with ice and snow, and they were left to be taken away when the Ocean tide returned.

Now that the weather is cold, the ice and snow will not melt. The use of ice cubes to build warehouses is not only fast, but also has the effect of keeping fresh.

These male ice seals are huge, with an average weight of more than 6 tons. They can get at least 4 tons of meat and fat after excluding their internal organs and bones. The 180 ice seals can get a total of more than 700 tons of meat and fat, which is definitely a fortune. .

The collection of the corpse lasted for most of the day, and finally Renault satisfactorily accepted a leather bag containing 8 mana spars from Moose.

Then he took out a complete mana spar from his leather bag and stuffed it directly to Moose.

This big man just made the "transcendence oath" some time ago, and Renault himself promised to let "Moose share his glory". This magic crystal is his action.

If you have a (large) share of me, there must be a (small) share of you.

Keeping a contract is a good character of a mechanical dog, and it is also a character that a superior person must possess.

What he saw and heard on the earth also told him that everyone joined together to "start a business" and eating alone is an extremely bad behavior, and it is absolutely necessary to destroy the "company".

Before leaving, Renault also asked the boys to clean up the traces on the rocky beach as much as possible, and strive to leave a clean and tidy environment for the ice seals to ensure that they will live comfortably and have fun when they come back next year.

After swaying at sea for a day at a speed of 14 knots, Hai Chao finally arrived at Midway Island.

Midway Island is located on the edge of the storm sea, with a total area of ​​nearly 15 square kilometers. Among the nearby large and small islands, it is one of the largest islands.

The topography of the island is complex, and most of the area is rugged mountains. Only the east side has a plain of less than 3 square kilometers. The vegetation is also quite luxuriant, and most of the area is covered by high and low arbor forests.

In addition, there is a small freshwater river on Midway Island. Although the flow is not large, it is rare that it will not stop flowing.

This is the main reason why Renault decided to place its transit base on Midway Island.

In fact, if it were not for the fact that the plain area of ​​Midway Island was too small, it would face the storm in the storm waters during the storm season, and this island would definitely be occupied by people.

According to Elon, there is the highest mountain in the center of the island, which occupies almost one-fifth of the island's area. The top of this mountain is a bit strange. It is not a spire like an ordinary stone mountain, but a pit.

Renault understood something strange to Elon.

Isn't it the volcanic island?

The "pit" on the top of the mountain should be called "volcano pit" officially, and only unseen turtles would call it "pit".

This shows that there is still a volcano under Midway Island, but I don't know if it is an active volcano or an extinct volcano. If it is really an active volcano, if it erupts one day, it would be great fun.

According to Elon’s description, this volcano is not small. Once the volcano recovers, it will definitely end the entire island. Every corner of the island will be covered with volcanic ash, and the eastern plain will be full of lava.

This made Renault a little hesitant, should we put the transit base on Midway Island?

He asked again: "Elon, are there records of volcanic eruptions in the stormy seas in recent decades? Or is it a record of tsunamis?"

According to Reynolds' limited knowledge of geography, almost all volcanoes on the ocean are located on the edge of the "crustal plate", which is also an area with frequent geological movements.

If there is a recent record of volcanic eruption, it means that the submarine plate below is just in an active state, and the volcano on Midway Island is not an extinct volcano.

Tsunami can also represent this, because tsunamis are often caused by submarine volcanic eruptions or earthquakes, both of which indicate the activity of the plate.

Facing the Lord Lord’s question, Elon was at a loss. He squeezed his forehead and lowered his head to think.

Seeing that he hadn't answered for a long time, Renault was about to relieve him when he didn't expect Elon to suddenly ask.

"My lord, forgive me for my ignorance. What is a volcano? Does it mean a mountain that can breathe fire?"

Renault was taken aback.

MMP, are you kidding me? You don't even know what a "volcano" is? Or does the "volcano" in another world have another name?

While Renault was still in surprise, Elon continued to talk.

"Your Excellency, please forgive me for my ignorance, a volcano that erupts. I have never seen it, but I have had the honor to witness a fire cave that erupts once..."

"The fire hole is on an island in the outer area of ​​the Misty Sea, less than 80 nautical miles from Odin Island, not too far..."

Renault was really shocked this time.

"The fire hole that can breathe fire" and "It's not too far from Odin Island", these words are too informative.

It was so big that Renault instantly put the "volcano" thing behind him. He grabbed Elon's shoulder and said excitedly: "Tell me all the information about the fire hole..."

At the same time, he couldn't help cursing inwardly, Elon, this idiot, why didn't he tell the "Fire Hole" matter earlier.

In Central Asia on the earth, there is also a natural gas pit called "Hell's Gate" in Turkmenistan. After being ignited, it has burned for nearly 50 years and has not been extinguished.

It is difficult for the people on earth to use the "gates of hell", but it does not mean that they cannot be used in other worlds.

With the rune group [Thermal Transformation] in hand, as long as the corresponding rune disc is placed in the fire hole, it means that Renault can obtain:

no! limit! can! source!
