Chapter 152 - A Heat Wave Attack (2/2)

Wei Huo planned to go out and hunt for meat to exchange it for Mithril. As this was an equal exchange, his and Mr. Li’s luck would not flow. If someone was short-changed, luck would flow to the person who had been short-changed as compensation.

Wei Huo walked to the exit. The people in charge of guarding and observing the exit opened the door for him. The moment the door opened, a wave of heat surged in. The guards immediately closed their eyes and tilted their heads back. They could not help but say, “It’s so hot!”

Because the shelter had been built in the middle of the mountain, most of the heat was cut off by the mountain.

After Wei Huo left the shelter, a few guards hurriedly closed the gate. Despite that, the heat still spread through the iron gate.

The calamity had arrived…

Although Wei Huo had experienced such hot weather before, he was really strong. He was immune to the cold and heat, and food was stored in his inventory. It would not rot or decay.

Wei Huo was not afraid of the cold and heat, but ordinary humans were. However, Wei Huo was confused.

“It’s only been over 40 days. Is summer coming?” Wei Huo asked System Number Two.

System Number Two replied, “Day time has been doubled, but year time has not grown. That’s why the first quarter is 45 days. It’s almost summer!”

Summer was the season when birds chirped and flowers bloomed. It was also the season when the heat waves came. However, the world’s average temperature dropped to about 50°C when heat waves hit. The highest temperature in the desert was over 100°C. Almost no living creature could survive there.

The Tree-Man had been to the desert. According to him, only Fire Elementals and Fire Giants could survive there.

However, hunting became easier. As long as one went to a cooler place, one would discover a large number of living creatures. There were a lot of living creatures in pools, under trees, and in caves.

There were also special places. For example, a green mountain was a cooler place. There was a mountain over 100 kilometers away from the shelter. When Wei Huo arrived, he realized that as long as one was within the range of the mountain, the temperature would not exceed 23°C. From afar, Wei Huo could see a steeple on the mountain.

“What can you see?” Wei Huo asked.

System Number Two said, “A temple, a Buddha Tower, a dungeon, a cave, a heritage, an old monk, and a few deer. The mountain is filled with blue butterflies.”

Wei Huo was confused.

He knocked on System Number Two’s curved screen. “Are you okay? Is it too hot? Can’t the CPU work?”

An ellipsis appeared on the screen of System Number Two. Moments later, it said, “I don’t have a CPU. A living soul is hidden behind this screen. It’s just that this carrier suits me better. When you’re strong enough in the future, build a human body for me and let me experience the feeling of being human.”

Wei Huo smiled. “You will have to wait a long time. I can only control the air now. When will I be able to rebuild a human body and make a body for you?”

Creatures at the Domain level had the ability to control molecular atoms. They could adjust their own genes and even rebuild their bodies. However, Wei Huo could not do that at the moment. His current strength was at most at the early stage of the Domain Realm. He could only barely control the air and walk in the wind.

At that moment, a bell-like sound came from the mountain. Soon, Wei Huo saw a few deer with horns emitting blue light running down the mountain.
