There was no crackling sound of wood cracking, no whirring sound of flames burning. Like yesterday, there was no open flame in the fireworks. Only a very thin smoke emerged from the cracks of the already white firewood. Before it rose, it was blown away by the breeze.

The smoke was so thin that no one noticed anything wrong just now. It was when Shuer was finally giving the task, and he accidentally swept across the fire. He happened to see a wisp of blue smoke blown away by the wind, and then he noticed the abnormality of the fire.

There is smoke and there is fire, even dark fire. After a day and night of burning, theoretically, it is impossible for the fire of this size in front of you to continue to burn, but the facts seen in your eyes prove that there are still fire elements in the fire that are restless and smoke evaporate.

"Don't touch, don't move."

As soon as Shuer said, a figure shaking around him, Dak had already appeared next to the fire. The red rose in his hand turned into a rifle and was about to extend into the fire. Shuer's prompt came very promptly. Before the rifle could reach into the fire, it stopped in mid-air. It was less than half a meter away from the fire. It was estimated that one second later, the dry firewood burned in the fire would have been picked up.

"Remember, don't touch any abnormal situation." Shuer said thoughtfully, "And I was really asking a question just now. Is there any way to let the fire burn for a day and a night?"

He really didn't know that although he had rich experience in chasing the shadows and had a lot of experience in mercenaries in Pavatiga, it was impossible for a person to be good at all fields after all. Shuer did not know much about the experience of survival in the wild. Of course, he still had a lot of theoretical knowledge, but theory does not mean reality. There are too many realistic skills that are not found in books, so he had to ask clearly.

The two people in front of me are the best candidates for inquiry.

Dak started as a lone mercenary at the grassroots level, lived in the wilderness several times more time than in the city, and his wild survival skills were very superb. Linda was very smart. She dared to risk her life to enter the wilderness and must have learned a lot of wilderness knowledge in advance. Therefore, it is definitely correct for the two of them to ask.

"It's hard if no one adds fuel." The two answers were very similar. "The best way to make warning cigarettes on the grassland in late autumn is to add dry and re-wet herbivorous feces to the firewood pile. But even if we add wet feces one to one in the maximum ratio, it can only ensure that the normal smoke will be issued for four or five hours."

"Indeed, there will be smoke in the future. It is caused by the fire element burning the wet fuel. But as the fuel is exhausted, the fire element will quickly dissipate, and the temperature will drop accordingly, and it will soon be low enough to keep the fire from ignition to ignition. According to my experience, from ignition to ignition of the fire, it lasts for up to ten hours, and there will be problems if it takes longer."

“In fact, there are some tricks to extend the time of smoking,” Dark added. “But that won’t exceed fourteen hours of smoking, which is the limit I know.”

"Well, I understand." Shuer had been around the fire for several times. Most of the fire was burned out, but there were still faint waves of fire elements hidden deep in the fire. I don't know what these fire elements rely on to maintain their vitality, but it is these residual elemental energy that causes the continuous generation of smoke.

"Temperature...and still remains." Dak did not touch the fire, but just placed his hand next to the fire to sense it. He also noticed the abnormal gathering of fire elements, and then checked through means other than energy perception. "This state is like the fire just burned for three or four hours."

"No, if it's three or four hours, the smoke will be much thicker than it is now." Shure asked in confusion, "It seems like it will be cut off at any time like now, and it will never last for more than three or four hours."

"You don't understand this. Your question is actually the key to the problem." Dark finally found the opportunity to despise Shuer. Unfortunately, the occasion was not suitable. Otherwise, he could find ten thousand ironic words, unlike the current one that you don't understand is done. "The activity of the fire element here is limited, and they can only maintain this intensity of activity, so the smoke will be so light."

"Hmm? Is it limited? That is to say, is the time when the fire is smoked longer because of suppressing the active intensity? Someone did this on purpose?"

"Yes, it can continue to smoke until now because the activity of the fire element has been suppressed." Dark nodded, but immediately shook his head, "But, people? Haha, I'm afraid it may not be made by humans."

As soon as he said this, Linda behind him shivered subconsciously. At the strange disappearance scene, facing the strange fireworks, it was hard not to make people creepy when he heard Dark's words, especially for people like Linda who have no ability to protect themselves.

"I misunderstood, it's not something outside of someone. I mean it's not artificial, but a phenomenon." Dake also reacted that his words were a bit scary and quickly added, "I don't know how to explain it, just like... by the way, it's like this reaction should have been completed within two hours, but it was inexplicably extended ten times, and the completion time has become twenty hours. So, the phenomenon shown is that the elemental activity decreases and the reflection effect is weakened, well, just like what we see."

"Is there a way to artificially create similar phenomena?"

"Are you kidding," Dark sneered, "this has lengthened the time many times. Even Gods can't control the time. Do you think anyone in mortals can do it?"

"I just asked casually." He avoided Dark's accusations lightly. Shuer's eyes were patrolling back and forth between the gate and the fire. He tapped his fingers on his thighs and pondered for a while before he smiled mockingly and sighed, "I understand, I'm fussing."

"Ha?" Dark couldn't help but open his mouth wide. What was he talking nonsense? Such a strange phenomenon was actually a big fuss?

"It's nothing, don't pay attention to it." Shuer shook his head, "It seems that this is not the medium I want to find. Let's continue. Pay more attention to similar situations. Remember not to touch them, and finally meet at the designated location."

Unfortunately, abnormal conditions are not so easy to detect, and there is no big gain in the subsequent search.

Although the three of them had already searched very carefully, the camp was still the same, clean and neat, and the tidy and organized. It was difficult to find something wrong without human contact.

Perhaps because of the soon-to-departure, even the residential areas where many tents were built were not messy at all. The only thing that seemed a little messy was the most gorgeous tent.

"This is the residence of the noble you mentioned." This is actually not a question. Except for the powerful and wealthy nobles, few people will use this kind of flashy tent during their journey. Apart from the large space, it looks grand and gorgeous, it has no additional meaning for the journey. It is not as practical as an ordinary tent. At least ordinary tents are lighter. Of course, people are rich and willing, and Shull is not qualified to manage others. Apart from malicious imagination, how many gold coins can be exchanged for when stealing the tent and selling it, he can't do anything.

"Hmm?" After walking around the noble's tent, Shuer suddenly stopped, "Is there a child in the team?"

No wonder he asked this. Although the tent was neatly tidy, Shuer looked good. He saw children's toys in several places, and in the corners of the tent, he also found the graffiti left by the children.

"Ah? Oh, yes." Linda was stunned and nodded quickly, "There are three children."

"There are three more?" It's a hell. He brought the children to such a dangerous wilderness, and he actually brought three of them at once. Shuer curled his lips, without considering that he also brought three underage children around the world, muttering dissatisfiedly, "They are still not afraid of danger."

"Three, the youngest son of the nobleman, his housekeeper's daughter, and a man in the caravan. His wife died not long before departure. He could not leave the child alone at home, so he could only beg Lenster and let him take the child with him." Linda explained, "There are no children in the team at ordinary times, and this time it can only be said to be a special situation."

"It seems that you know a lot." Xiuer said with a smile, "I've asked clearly."

"Ha, Lord Priest, this is a matter of life and life. If you don't keep track of the dynamics at any time, isn't it irresponsible for your own life? Besides, the role we play is not so glorious. You can follow them smoothly without any annoying." Without any intention of concealing your purpose, Linda straightforwardly said her plan, "And, I actually like children very much, so when I saw that there were children in the team, I asked more."

"Like kids?"

"Yeah." Linda unconsciously lowered her eyes and hid the emotions in her eyes, but the loneliness and regret in her last glance could not escape Shuer's eyes.

"Haha, let's talk about some things later. Let's solve the trouble in front of us first."

Before we knew it, we had already reached the agreed place, which was the tent that Shuer deliberately avoided yesterday. Similarly, there were no signs of living things passing by here. Yesterday, the three of us left several marks nearby, obvious, not obvious, and different forms. It can be said that as long as something moving is moved, it will inevitably cause damage to the marks if it passes by. I want to pass without leaving any trace? That is too much to look down on these mercenaries who face danger and death all day long.

"Dak, how about it?" As soon as he arrived at the agreed location, he saw Daak walking from another area from a distance. His face was not good-looking, and obviously he had no gains.

Sure enough, Dark shook his head and said in a depressed mood: "I found nothing."

"It's okay, as expected." Shure smiled faintly, "Don't be disappointed, isn't there still a last area that has not been found?"

"What's wrong with you guy." Linda certainly couldn't see it, but Dark was different. She found Shuer's abnormality very sensitively. "It's very wrong. Tell, did you think of something?"
