Chapter 476: The Foundation of the Clan (Part 1)
By the side of a stream in the forest.
A forest rhino is drinking water by the stream, the stream is murmuring, the birds are singing, and everything around is very calm.
This forest rhinoceros is very large, nearly eight meters long, three meters tall, and weighs nearly two tons. It was drinking quietly, but its ears were moving around, and its small eyes were constantly observing its surroundings, and it seemed very vigilant.
Suddenly, its ears stopped, and it pointed in one direction to one side, and as if it had noticed something, it stopped drinking water, and raised its head.
At this moment, there was a 'whoosh' sound, and an arrow shot down from a nearby tree, and with a 'pounce' sound, it accurately hit the soft flesh behind the rhinoceros's ears, and the meat was more than 20 centimeters long.
The rhinoceros was in pain, and with a long roar in the sky, its eyes immediately turned red, and because its ears were injured and its balance was impaired, it stumbled towards the trees.
Just as it turned around, a person immediately rushed out behind the rhinoceros, he was holding a black spear in his hand, they were very fast, and soon followed the footsteps of Lin Xi, the spear quickly stabbed out, accurately pierced from the back of Lin Xi's fragile body, inserted it more than a meter deep, and stirred it fiercely, and then did not love to fight, quickly retreated to a big tree, used both hands and feet, and quickly climbed up the tree.
Lin Xi was hit by this shameless sharp crit, let out a miserable howl that changed its tone, his eyes turned red, and he quickly turned around, stumbling towards the person who poked its back body.
It's already crazy, and it can't care about anything, and it's going to destroy this opponent.
But as soon as it turned around, another person rushed out from the side, also holding a spear in his hand, an arrow step, and the spear in his hand was like a diamond, poking at the small eye on Lin Xi's side that was protected by a thick eyebrow bone.
'Poof' was still poked in the eye. The tip of the spear sank into the small half meter and stabbed Lin Xi's head, which was a fatal injury!
This terrible behemoth, with a weak leg, fell to the ground with a bang, and rolled on the ground seven or eight times. It hit the tree with a 'boom' and shook the fallen leaves.
As soon as Lin Rhino died, ten people jumped out of the surrounding bushes, all of whom were wearing animal skin clothes, and their bodies were all very strong, and each of them was holding a spear made of hard iron and wood, and five of them were also carrying bows and arrows, and they were all happy at this time.
"Haha, such a big guy. This meat is enough for the whole village to eat well for half a day. And this big piece of rhino skin, and rhino horn. Take it back, and the leader will be very happy! "A sturdy young man jumped down from a tree with a hardwood bow in his hand.
His name was Add, Highland Hunter, and the arrow he shot in the ear was his masterpiece.
"Hurry up and divide the corpse and take it back, it's not early, the werewolf is coming out." Another young man with an old face said.
His name is Alan. It's the person who was in charge of the asshole blow just now, and the leader of this hunting party. As soon as he said this, everyone quickly took out the wolf claw dagger and began to divide Lin Xi's corpse.
In a short time, the skin of the hill-like forest rhinoceros was stripped off by the hunters with sophisticated techniques, and after another half an hour, the carcass was divided into many large pieces. Each piece weighs more than 100 kilograms, and it's all lean meat pieces. Other worthless internal organs and bones remained.
Ten people, one of them divided a piece, carried it and walked, walking like flying. It doesn't feel cumbersome at all.
Strong weight-bearing capacity and stamina are essential skills for every hunter. Especially the Terrans of the world of the gods, after being well trained and well fed, the upper limit of physical strength is much higher than that of the real world.
Basically, every Highland Hunter can carry a weight of two hundred kilograms for fifty kilometers.
As he walked, Eddie, the archer, spoke, "Alan, the leader is studying the magic seed potion with Munsa, do you think they will succeed?" ”
"The leader will succeed!" Allen's tone was very affirmative.
"Well, I wish the leader would succeed soon. Magic, that's the real power! "Eddie is very yearning.
This is true not only of him, but of every hunter in the team.
These highland hunters have all practiced martial arts for more than a year, and under Sun Ran's dedicated teaching and skillful and reasonable training, they all already have good combat power, and the only thing they lack is magic power.
With magic, then they don't have to fear werewolves, they don't have to fear elves, and they are truly on the same level as them.
The group was full of yearning in their hearts, and the team fell silent.
Suddenly, Allen, who was walking in the front, raised his hand and said, "Stop, someone is staring at us." ”
The hunters immediately put down the pieces of meat in their hands and took their spears, and several hunters with bows also mounted their arrows and bows, and watched the dense forest vigilantly.
The branches and leaves of the tree moved, and two werewolves appeared, their eyes flashing red, and they roared, "Put down the pieces of meat, and ....... roll!" ”
Alan speared horizontally, taking a defensive stance and glancing at the others, and the crowd quickly dispersed, looking for a place to hide.
"If you want our prey, defeat us first!" Eren squinted his eyes and let out a beast-like roar in his throat.
Show the power of never backing down, this is the law of the jungle! Here, weakness is bullied, that's what the chief said.
The werewolf glanced at each other, a little surprised, and then said, "Don't make us angry! ”
This group of humans is different from what they have encountered before, they have a fierce aura on their bodies, and their bodies are also very strong, and they don't look easy to mess with. And there are only two of them, and if you do it, you can't be absolutely sure. If it had been for the emaciated humans of the past, they would have rushed up long ago.
Alan also didn't want to conflict, werewolves were too strong, conflict would inevitably kill people, he didn't want to see this, so he released a big killing weapon: "We are hunters in the Highland Village, and our leader is Thal." If you are not afraid of the retaliation of our leader, come and rob it! ”
"What? You're Highland Killers?! ”
As soon as the two werewolves heard this name, their faces changed greatly, they looked at each other, bared their teeth, and reluctantly retreated into the dense forest. These hunters, they can't afford to mess with, because they've seen the heads of the Monta tribe heap.
The hunters didn't stay long, immediately grabbed the pieces of meat and continued to run towards the highland village.
Along the way, there were no more disturbers, and the group returned to the river below the village of Highlands.
Once here, it's safe, and the hunters expertly wash the pieces of meat and rhinoceros skins in the river, waiting for the blood and dirt on them to be cleaned before carrying the clean pieces on their backs. Follow the narrow and steep mountain trails, pass through checkpoints, and return to Highland Village.
More than a year later, the size of the highland village is completely different from the old riverbank village, and the number of people in the entire village is far more than the 400 people when it was first built, but nearly 1,000 people. And the vast majority are young people.
At this time, the highland village was full of houses, and the area was much larger than when it was first built, and there were more blacksmith shops, bow and arrow shops, garment shops, and other houses that provided daily battles and daily life.
Along the way, you can often hear laughter. Along the way, you can often see many little ones who are just over a year old crawling excitedly in the open space in front of their homes. The mouth is babbling and shouting, full of life.
When they arrived at the village grain shop, the hunters were warmly welcomed, the women took the pieces of meat and took them to be processed, and the children of seven or eight years old quickly brought them water and hot food, with respectful and enthusiastic expressions.
The hunters also took a long breath, their tense nerves relaxed, and they really felt the safety and warmth of home.
Wait until the hunters have eaten and drunk enough. Then a child came and said, "The chief said, 'All the hunters come to his house in the evening.'" He has something to discuss with everyone. ”
The hunters nodded, hurriedly finished their food, and then put their faces in order and went to the chief's residence.
The house was very large, all made of wood, and divided into two courtyards. The backyard is Sun Ran's residence, which is very small, not much different from the houses of most hunters in the village. The front yard is very spacious, and this is the meeting room of the hunters.
When they reached the house, they saw that all the hunters in the village had arrived. There are more than 300 people in total, all of whom are young people who have practiced martial arts.
The chieftain Saar, and the second chieftain Monsa were all there.
"Sit down." When Sun Ran saw that the hunter had arrived, he signaled, and when everyone sat down, he said straight to the point: "What I want to discuss with you today is about magic. ”
As soon as they heard the word 'magic', all the hunters were shocked and listened attentively.
"First of all, we have failed to develop our own magic seed potion again." Sun Ran sighed, this thing, it's not that he can't do it, but he can't do it, and this medicine requires harsh conditions, even if it is successful, it can't be popularized, and it's not very useful.
"Hey~" The hunters also sighed, they were also very concerned about this magic thing, and they were looking forward to success.
"But...... We have another way! Sun Ran changed the topic.
The hunters all looked up at him with anticipation.
Sun Ran continued: "In the Falling Star Valley in the east, there is a gathering place of our human race, and there are more than a dozen magical warriors in their tribe. I guess they might have found a way to activate the magic. I think we should ask them! ”
"Will they say? I've heard that the people in the Falling Star Valley are very xenophobic and never communicate with people from other settlements. Hunter Alan asked.
Sun Ran squinted and smiled: "They won't say it to us, but they will definitely say it to the weapon in our hand, won't they?" ”
When he said this, many of the hunters grinned, but some of them were still suspicious, and these hunters were more considerate, they were afraid of too many casualties, and that cannibalism would be contrary to the unity of the human race.
Sun Ran understood this idea and sighed: "Many times, peace cannot solve all problems, and our weapons are the best persuaders. ”
He looked at the hunters with a worried look in his eyes, "We are now getting more and more famous, and we are about to attract the attention of the elves. In order to meet the challenge of the elves, we must have the means to activate the magic. This is the foundation of the family! ”
The word elf immediately dispelled the hesitation of all hunters.
In this forest, the elves are the true, irrefutable rulers. Deep down in the hearts of all the intelligent races of the forest is an instinctive reverence for the elves.
Those creatures with pointed ears and beautiful faces like gods are too mysterious, too powerful, too terrifying.
"We agree!" The crowd spoke.
"Okay, let's plan. There is a principle, try to avoid conflicts, and if we can, we will exchange things with them. When it is really unavoidable, do it. Sun Ran said.
"Understood!"
After a night of deliberation, the next day, half of the hunters stayed in Highland Village to defend the village, and the other half, with one hundred and fifty people, followed Sun Ran down the mountain and went straight to the Falling Star Valley, two hundred miles to the east.
