The second day of the First Epoch, 13 hours and 47 minutes.
The people in the traveling caravan had all fallen asleep. They did not pick a place. They found a tree to lean against, a patch of grass to lie down on, and a table to lie down on. In less than a minute, they fell asleep. Some of them snored loudly, but they could not wake up the other tired and sleepy people.
Even the savages and the new self-exploding sheep that had joined the caravan started resting. The savages had their hands tied by ropes. They surrounded the city and cursed at each other. The strongest of the savages found a relatively comfortable place to sleep. The other savages lay down one after another and started sleeping.
The self-exploding sheep stayed in a corner in a flock and lay on the ground to rest. However, this flock of self-exploding sheep appeared very calm. They looked like upper-class ladies with proper postures. As self-exploding sheep, they were not afraid of anyone, much less sneak attacks. They wanted to eat and sleep.
The rhinoceros lay on the ground, closed its eyes, and started cultivating the Bronze Qi-Conducting Skill. As a Rare-ranked creature, it was not tired at all. In comparison, Qi Cultivation was more comfortable.
Wei Sha, on the other hand, was in charge of guarding her surroundings. She carried two bronze swords on her back. After years of training, her Combat Skill had reached Level 11, and her Attack had reached 214 points.
Wei Huo's Combat Skill was stuck at Level 20. The system kept reminding him to change his occupation, but he could not do anything about it without encountering an NPC.
Everyone was asleep, but Wei Huo was still studying his notes. Three hours later, while he was studying his notes, he suddenly smelled something that smelled like burning charcoal. It was coming from the South-West direction.
The wind had changed direction. It was starting to blow southwest.
The Tree-Man looked southwest silently and did not speak.
Wei Huo climbed up the Tree-Man's body and arrived at the top of the tree. He saw a huge ring of fire in the southwest jungle. The ring of fire was finally charred black, and thick smoke kept rising. The wind had been blowing from the northeast and toward the coastline, so the ring of fire had missed them. Wei Huo was shocked.
However, a southwest wind had started blowing again. The sea breeze had blown over from the seaside and blown the fire over.
"I saw a forest fire more than 100 years ago. It was very spectacular, but it was caused by Heavenly Thunder. After a few minutes, it rained heavily and the fire was extinguished. However, this time," the Tree-Man said as he looked up. He saw the clear sky.
Wei Huo sighed and said, "This is the outcome of provoking a self-exploding sheep!"
The Tree-Man nodded. "Self-Exploding Sheep are indeed not to be provoked. I've seen a Rare-ranked Self-Exploding Sheep self-destruct. Its power is enough to destroy half a small mountain. It's very terrifying!"
Wei Huo nodded. "Rare-ranked creatures are already so powerful. I wonder how strong an Epic-ranked self-exploding sheep is. Perhaps it's about the same as a nuclear explosion?"
The Tree-Man didn't know what a nuclear explosion was. He said, "You can't underestimate any living creature. You can only live longer if you're humble."
Wei Huo could only chat with the Tree-Man. Could it be that the Tree-Man was not resting? Instead, he was chatting with Wei Huo. However, the southwest wind was getting stronger, and the fire ring was getting closer to them.
In Wei Huo's eyes, a few mountains were burnt black, and thick smoke was billowing. A large number of animals had already known about the danger and started fleeing. The fire invaded from the other side of the mountain and occupied the next mountain in an instant. Wherever the fire ring went, not even a blade of grass would grow. Any insects, birds, or beasts that could not escape in time would be burned to ashes.
"I really don't know if this fire is good or bad," Wei Huo said slowly.
The Tree-Man asked, "The fire is about to spread to us. Do you need me to use my imposing aura to resist the fire?"
Wei Huo looked at his traveling caravan and said, "There's no need for that. My caravan is not that big. I'll clean up the surrounding flammable objects later and make the fire avoid us. Our path will be smoother if we burn it."
At that moment, something in the fire ring exploded again. Wei Huo did not hear anything because he was far away, but he saw the flames.
The Tree-Man said, "Another self-exploding sheep?"
Wei Huo shook his head. "It's not as powerful as a self-exploding sheep. It might be a car or something."
The Tree-Man did not understand what Wei Huo was talking about.
500 years ago, there seemed to have been a county-level road there. There should not have been many cars on the road. However, due to the rapid growth of plants, the road had been covered, and the road had disappeared.
In the end, 500 years had passed, and human time had suddenly recovered. Apart from the players' characters who had been teleported to the safe zone, other humans had to face unfamiliar environments, powerful creatures, and a lack of food and water. They even had to endure the pain of their loved ones dying or going missing.
It seemed like there was a kilometer nearby. The fire spread, and wherever the fire ring went, explosions occurred one after another. This made the fire ring spread even more violently.
However, at that moment, huge dark clouds floated over from the southwest. The dark clouds moved faster than the fire, and the strong wind drove them away as if they wanted to cover the sky.
Upon seeing the dark clouds, Wei Huo smiled. "It seems like there's no need. God is helping us."
The Tree-Man took a few more looks at the dark clouds and said, "This weather is not unreasonable. I've lived for hundreds of years. I'm not proficient in weather, but I understand it. Unreasonable weather will definitely cause a special disaster. We have to be careful."
Wei Huo nodded. He could not ignore the old Tree-Man's experience.
At that moment, Wei Huo keenly sensed a slight light pressure. He turned around and saw a strange light shining in the distance. Then, the light was extinguished.
Wei Huo was a little surprised. What was that? A treasure?
Wei Huo immediately took out the rifle with the 8x scope. He had never fired the gun ever since he had obtained it. He had never used the 8x scope on it either. He had wanted to keep it as a souvenir, but he had not expected it to be useful now.
There was something wrong with the light.
Wei Huo observed carefully through the 8x scope and saw a piece of glass in a dense jungle. Through the glass, Wei Huo even saw a television and a sofa. The reason he could see them so clearly was because the slanting sun's light shone into the house.
However, as the two sides of the glass window were blocked by dense trees and dense leaves, Wei Huo could not see the full view inside the glass window.
At that moment, something in the glass window flashed again. It seemed like a mirror or something reflective.
Wei Huo understood that there were living people in the house!
"Everyone, wake up immediately. I'll give you three minutes to prepare and pack your luggage. We have to move forward immediately. There should be a village ahead!"
Everyone woke up. Xiao Bin jumped up and took out his bronze short sword. It took him a while to realize that Wei Huo was asking them to set off. No one complained.
They saw Wei Huo jump down from the Tree-Man's treetop. He jumped down from a height of more than 100 meters. With a loud bang, the ground caved in slightly. Wei Huo walked out of the pit unscathed and walked in the direction of the glass window.
No one spoke. Wei Huo's strength was deeply imprinted in their minds.
