5 Nights Before History

Qin Xiaobai tied the three sheep with grass vines, and tied one end of the grass vines to a tree next to the tent. After having the three female barbarian peasants in the camp watch the sheepfold, he continued to hunt deep into the jungle with the four barbarian peasants.

The exhibition of prehistoric tribes is a bit boring, requiring the repeated monotonous processes of hunting, cutting meat, and gathering.

If players are more diligent, they can do it themselves to speed up the collection of materials. If you are lazy, you can completely let the farmers do it themselves, but in this case, there is one less laborer, and the construction progress will be a step slower. However, the process is relatively short in prehistoric times, but it is only required on the first day of the game, and after having a large number of farmers, the player does not need to participate in these manual labor hands-on.

Qin Xiaobai spent more than ten minutes searching for prey, but this time, his luck was a little worse.

Qin Xiaobai led the four barbarian peasants to walk in the jungle with a big wooden stick, and saw two adult wild wolves lying on a stone pile not far ahead. He immediately stopped alertly, and swung his club to stop the four barbarian peasants who were following him from advancing.

The barbarian peasants were frightened at the sight of the wolf.

Wild wolves have 100HP of life, 5 attacks, and 1 defense, and belong to dangerous beasts with high attack and low defense, with high combat effectiveness, they are not deer and sheep, and they can be bullied casually.

And the stone piles they lie on are none other than stone mines, one of the most important deposits in the Empires game, which can be used to collect stone and use it to build stone walls, houses, towers, castles, and many other military forces.

Now, there are two wild wolves lying on this stone mine.

Qin Xiaobai's current health is only 72HP.

In prehistoric times, there were no wizards, doctors, and other professions that could replenish health, and health could only be recovered naturally, and it only automatically recovered 1HP per hour, which was very slow. He lost 30 HP when he killed the stag, and it took more than two hours to recover to 72 HP, which shows the slow recovery.

Qin Xiaobai Xun calculated.

The wild wolf is very aggressive, and it can bite off 20 HP in one bite, and if it is bitten four times, it hangs up. If it bites a barbarian peasant, it can bite off 30 HP at a time, and it will hang after four bites. If there are five people on your side and you attack a wolf at the same time, two rounds of close attacks can kill a wolf. Returning to the camp and pulling all the peasants over, it would take two rounds of attacks to kill a wolf.

However, there are two wild wolves here.

Two wolves and one wolf are completely different.

If there is only one wolf, he can be at the front, command the barbarians and peasants to attack from the surrounding area, and calmly kill the wolf.

Two wild wolves, he has no choice at all.

The bare-handed barbarians who followed him were peasants, not warriors.

They are not born to fight, but to produce.

Once the barbarian peasant is bitten by a wild beast, he will flee in terror to save his life. The other barbarian peasants will also be frightened and flee in terror, causing chaos on their own side, and it is likely that they will not be able to kill the wolves, but they will be hunted by two wild wolves, killing several peasants.

At the beginning of the game, each farmer is very valuable and needs a lot of time to raise food to recruit. I tried my best to kill these two wild wolves, and I couldn't get more meat, which was very uneconomical.

The harvest is far lower than the transaction paid, and Qin Xiaobai will not do it.

There are many other weak animals in the jungle, so there is no need to take risks easily, wait for yourself to upgrade to the Stone Age, build a barbarian barracks, recruit barbarian warriors with stronger combat effectiveness and higher combat quality, and then go back and hunt these two wild wolves.

As for the stone mines, they are not useful now, and they need to wait for their tribe to upgrade to the Stone Age before they can be mined.

After Qin Xiaobai spent two seconds pondering, he did not hesitate to command the four barbarian peasants to retreat.

He made a note of the quarry, then made a small circle, avoiding the wolf's territory and moving on.

Soon, they were pleasantly surprised to find two wild deer, each with 150 hp.

Qin Xiaobai immediately commanded four barbarian peasants to surround the two deer one after another, hunt them, and drag them back to the camp to cut the meat. The three female barbarian farmers in the camp had collected 10 units of berries and deposited them in tents. On the ground next to the campfire, there is also a hare with 10 units of meat that has not been cut.

Qin Xiaobai and seven barbarian peasants have greatly increased the efficiency of cutting meat together, which has nearly doubled compared to the beginning.

The population grew rapidly, and it took 28 minutes to recruit the eighth barbarian farmer and 31 minutes to recruit the ninth barbarian peasant. In this way, including Qin Xiaobai himself, the number of people that the tent can accommodate has now reached the upper limit.

In the prehistoric era of Empires, a barbarian tribe had a maximum population of 10 and could not be recruited.

When the population reaches the upper limit, the next thing to do is to start accumulating food and upgrading the era.

Qin Xiaobai looked at the time, it was already afternoon, and from the beginning of the game to now, 4 hours and 37 minutes had just passed.

He was satisfied with the time, which was only a little more than ten minutes later than he had originally expected, and it was not much different from the exhibition of the closed beta. Not much time was wasted, focusing on driving the three sheep to camp and searching for the beasts.

The sun is setting in the west.

In Qin Xiaobai's tribal camp, the barbarian peasants only cared about cutting meat.

By the time the remaining 200 units of venison were cut, the light in the jungle had dimmed, and the campfire in the center of the camp had grown brighter and hotter. The trees in the distance were no longer visible, they were dark, and there was enough lighting only a few dozen meters around the campfire.

Inside the camp, the barbarians gathered in front of a scorching bonfire.

At night, it is the time when dangerous beasts are everywhere, and the beast's attack power doubles, which, combined with the darkness, makes the outside of the camp very unsafe. Unless there is sufficient military force to ensure it, or the miles around the camp have been completely cleared of wild animals, it is best not to leave the camp at this time. Only the campfires in the camp can deter these dangerous beasts from approaching.

The flames on the campfire jumped, the barbarian peasants began to rejoice, and the food on the barbecue was cooked. The farmer's working hours are from the time the sun rises to the time the sun sets. At the end of the day, they can finally take a break and gather around the warm campfire to eat the berries and roast meat left over from the tent. Smelling the fragrance, they eagerly removed the uncooked pieces of meat, chewed on the greasy food, waved the pieces, and screamed and jumped.

Qin Xiaobai stood next to the tent, smiling at the group of barbarians screaming and jumping on the bonfire, occasionally throwing a few dead branches into the bonfire, with a strange warmth in his heart.

Although he knew that there was a group of NPC barbarians in front of him, it was a computer program, but the barbarian's cheerful mood still infected him. If only I could be like them and not know anything, I don't have to understand anything, I am carefree, there is no pressure to survive and compete, and I don't have to work so hard.
