Master of Thermodynamics

Night fell gradually.

Eva is already high in the sky, and Ya'an has just appeared in the east. Tonight, Eva's color is extraordinarily bright red. It has completely turned into a blood moon, and half of the sky has been dyed blood.

The village was quiet, and occasionally there were several suppressed crying sounds. When it reached the courtyard where Renault was located, the sound had become very small, but with his keen senses, Renault could still hear clearly.

From time to time, the bonfire in front of the three of them made the sound of wood cracking, and the flames floating on the bonfire danced like elves, shining on Renault's face.

In this world, due to magical energy, wood has a much higher calorific value than the earth, and its burning temperature is also higher.

"So, the villagers plan to abandon this place and move to the depths of the Black Forest?" Renault asked.

"Yes, the blacksmiths and carpenters in the village have this idea. They are trying to convince other villagers. After all, it is no longer safe here, and the Black Orcs will definitely come again..." Angela replied.

"I also told them about the black orc hunters. They will move as soon as possible. It may take some time for the tribes to which these black orcs belong to discover the news of the death of the tribe, and the hunters will not be able to find them. Traces of..."

Renault was silent for a while, and suddenly sighed: "The method of the black orc army is obviously to eliminate humans on a large scale to make room for his own race..."

"So I estimate that the Black Orcs in the north will soon go south. In the future, this land will be completely occupied by the Black Orcs..."

The implication of his words was very obvious. After the black orcs went south, the villagers hid for a while and could not hide for a lifetime.

Especially this group of black hybrids are very reproductive. Once the population starts to explode, their footprints will definitely gradually expand to remote areas. Even if the villagers move to the depths of the Black Forest, they will be found by the Black Orcs sooner or later.

The girl was silent.

The struggle between races for living space is your life and death, and there will be no mercy. Humans are not as powerful as the black orcs, and the living space will be gradually compressed. These poor villagers are just victims in this process.

At this moment, Sansha lying next to Angela suddenly raised his head and looked into the darkness in the distance. Seeing its appearance, the three realized that someone was coming.

Sure enough, there was a faint sound of footsteps in the distance, and two vague figures appeared in the darkness. They were villagers of Delu Village.

When the figures approached, Renault could see their appearance clearly. They were a man and a woman, both of whom were wearing shabby linen clothes.

The male villagers are relatively strong, with a darker complexion and a little older complexion, and they seem to be close to 30 years old.

The other was a beautiful girl who looked younger than Angela. She was wearing an old but neat sarong, a turban on her head, and some freckles on her cheeks.

Seeing the three of them, both of them looked embarrassed, and the brawny man mustered up the courage to walk towards the three of them, and the girl followed him closely.

The girl quietly looked at the three of them, and quickly stared at the three fools who were lying on the ground. There was a clear curiosity in her big eyes. This strange-looking big dog aroused her great interest.

After walking to the bonfire, the two men immediately bowed and saluted: "Good evening, noble sir and young lady!"

Without waiting for the three of them to answer, the strong man immediately introduced himself: "I am Goode, and this is my sister Lena."

Then Goode gritted his teeth and knelt down on one knee, with a flattering smile on his face: "We are willing to be servants, and I implore the master and lady to accept..."

Seeing her brother kneel down, Lena also hurriedly knelt on the mud.

Renault and Angela looked at each other, and both of them looked surprised. They didn't expect that the village would turn to them.

However, their next journey is very dangerous, and they may encounter black orcs at any time. They have no intention of recruiting servants, and it is even more impossible to take them on the road.

Angela directly refused: "I'm sorry, we can't afford the servants' expenses."

This is obviously a pretext, but it is a very appropriate reason for rejection, because recruiting a servant means that he has to pay part of his expenses and pay regular salaries. People who do not have enough financial resources cannot afford to support servants.

Goode was anxious: "We don't need any salary!"

As if to convince the three of them, he added: "I used to work for more than 5 years in the largest silver apple firm in Broken Iron City. I often travel to some larger towns and I am very familiar with the terrain of these places."

Renault's eyes lit up and he looked at Goode with admiration.

This guy is not simple. Obviously he is very clear about the current situation and guessed the purpose of the three. Knowing that they want to leave the Mushan Kingdom, he took his sister to join the three.

At this moment, the Mushan Kingdom is like a big ship about to sink completely. Anyone with a little knowledge wants to escape as soon as possible. This is the case of the three people of Renault, and the same is true of the Good brothers and sisters.

The difference is that Renault and others have the ability to do this, but the Good brothers and sisters have no confidence, so they can only choose to rely on Renault.

This is also the only opportunity for the Goode brothers and sisters. If they miss this opportunity, they may only be trapped in the Black Forest and wait to die.

With Goode's knowledge, it is natural to know that the Renault trio are far better than the average awakened.

Being able to kill a large army of black orcs with the power of a mere three people is definitely not something ordinary abilities can do, so he decided to throw himself into the sect of the three!

Goode is very smart. He knew that in order to leave the kingdom as soon as possible, the three of Renault must need someone who is very familiar with geography.

Because only if you are familiar with geography, can you choose the most suitable path, and you won't run around like a headless fly, so that you can leave the Mushan Kingdom at the fastest speed.

And this is Goode's biggest bargaining chip!

At this moment, even Moose showed interest. He and Angela came from a kingdom farther north and were completely unfamiliar with the environment of the Mushan Kingdom. The indigenous "Renault" was just an orphan struggling at the bottom of the society. There is also a lack of understanding of other parts of the kingdom.

Renault's movements were even more swift. He stretched out his right hand and beckoned to a long gray-white stone in the courtyard. The heavy stone rose from the ground and slowly flew towards the bonfire.

During the flight, the uneven surface of the stone quickly turned dark red and melted into magma. Then the magma was removed by Nian Motive, exposing a smooth, mirror-like surface.

What is amazing is that the mirror surface is not red at all, it is still grayish white, and it seems that it has not been affected by the hot lava at all!

Finally, under the control of [Nian Power], the stone fell on the muddy ground next to the bonfire, making a muffled noise.

A series of incredible changes occurred on the stone, leaving Brother Goode stunned.

In the horrified eyes of the two, Renault said softly: "Please sit down, two of you. Can you tell me more about the experience in the silver and apple firm?"

He knows very well that Goode, who has been in the market, is no longer an honest farmer. There are mostly false or exaggerated words in what he said.

Renault's purpose in doing this is to frighten Goode and tell him not to try to play any tricks in front of absolute power!

Next, Goode spoke honestly about his experience in the Silver Apple Firm.

He worked in the firm for nearly 6 years. At the beginning, he only served as an **** for the caravan under the firm, protecting the goods purchased and transported by the caravan, so he often traveled between cities and towns.

Because of this, he is very familiar with most of the towns in the kingdom, and he can be regarded as a "living map".

He is actually only 24 years old, but because he travels around for a long time and often sleeps and eats, he is relatively old and looks like a middle-aged man in his 30s.

However, Goode is very motivated and very intelligent. He actually learned linguistic reading and writing and arithmetic in his spare time, and later gradually participated in the purchase and operation of the caravan, and finally succeeded in becoming one of the caravan managers.

Since the parents of the siblings have passed away, Linna lives with Goode in Broken Iron City. She usually does some chores within her capacity to subsidize the family, and also learns lingua franca and arithmetic with her brother.

If there was no invasion by the black orcs, Gude would probably get his qualifications in the firm step by step, and might have the opportunity to be promoted to a supervisor of the firm, independently responsible for the firm’s operations in a certain city, and Linna would probably marry the city. A certain citizen of, lived this life in a bland way.

But the army of black orcs changed everything. The Mushan Kingdom collapsed overnight, the kingdom was in chaos, bandits were everywhere, and the Silver Apple Trading Company suffered heavy losses and went bankrupt in just a few days.

The slightly more capable people have escaped from the Kingdom of Mushan. Some are powerful and capable of solving various dangers on the way to escape. Many rich people directly spend money to hire mercenary groups to protect them from leaving the kingdom.

But Goode didn't have enough force or money. In order to avoid the war, he had to take his sister back to Drew Village, and finally met Renault and others by chance.

When Goode was speaking, Renault interrupted him from time to time, asking some very detailed questions.

For example, "As a caravan escort, what work needs to be done during cargo transportation, and why do you need to do this work?"

"What should I do if I encounter a bandit? How to avoid unnecessary fights? How to avoid injuries in the fight?"

"When passing the town level, what should I do if I encounter a card? What should I do if I encounter a guard's robbery?"

"As a purchasing manager, what should I pay attention to when purchasing large quantities of goods? How to bargain when purchasing?"

Most of the time, Goode can answer quickly, but a few times he needs to think about it.

If Goode hadn’t done this work, when Renault questioned the details, he could only make up things. On the one hand, it took a certain amount of time to fabricate and couldn’t answer quickly. On the other hand, fictional things often had many holes in logic , It is easy to see through.

In response to Goode's answer, once Renault felt that it was logically unreasonable, he would further question Goode, asking Goode to explain more clearly.

If the previous answer was fabricated, then Goode had no choice but to continue fabricating, and the more we made, the more mistakes he made.

This is Renault's questioning skills!

Although Renault didn't understand the operation of the chamber of commerce in this world at all, with extremely keen logical thinking and this kind of "interview" skills, Goode was asked tremblingly.

At the beginning, Goode occasionally fabricated some experiences, but as the questioning progressed, he became more nervous and did not dare to fabricate any more facts. Later, as long as he came into contact with Renault's sharp eyes, Goode felt like walking on thin ice.

In this rather cool night, Goode even broke out in a cold sweat on his back!

Only then did he know that it turned out that Renault, a mediocre capable person, was not only very powerful, but even so experienced!

Angela and Moose were also listening attentively. They were able to insert a few words at the beginning, but Renault soon took over the dominance. The girl listened attentively, trying to figure out Renault's questioning skills .

In the eyes of a girl, the unusually brilliant skills are nothing to Renault. Before he crossed, he spent a lot of time researching interview skills in order to find a job and change jobs.

Moreover, Renault has been studying on the earth for nearly two decades, baptized by massive amounts of information, and has far broader knowledge than people in this world, and naturally formed a set of rigorous logical models.

After more than an hour, Renault finally smiled. He nodded to Goode with satisfaction and said: "I am Renault Odin. These two are Moose Theron and Angela Theron. We accept you. Allegiance!"

In this world, apart from nobles and capable people, common people have no surnames, they only have first names.

Renault did the same before, but after he won the "Book of Thermodynamics", he took himself a domineering surname-Odin!

To some extent, this also represents Renault's ambitions.

After hearing Renault’s words, a surprised and happy smile appeared on Goode’s face. He immediately took Lena to one knee and respectfully said: "Master Renault, Master Moose, Miss Angela, must I will do my best to serve you!"

For Goode, the siblings finally embraced one thigh, and their safety was more or less guaranteed.

For Renault, he won two "talents"!

That's right! In this age when the illiteracy rate is alarmingly high, it is considered a talent to be able to read and hyphenate, not to mention that the brothers and sisters also know some arithmetic, and Goode has certain management experience.

In the foreseeable future, once Renault starts the process of industrialization, his demand for "talents" will be endless!
