Chapter Eighty-Eight: Leapfrogging Development
The stone spears weren't sharp, but if thrown at the same time by hundreds of them, they would be powerful enough to kill the horned animal, which was about the size of a cow.
After all, smashing can also be smashed.
Guo Sen is still very pleased.
This group of primitive people who just eat fruit and vegetable paste finally turned their heads.
Eat meat, that's right.
If you are vegan......
Well? What's going on here?
Guo Sen watched in confusion as these primitive people gathered together, then took out the stone blade, squatted down and began to skin and debone the animal that had been pierced into a hedgehog.
Just do it here? Don't move to the tribe?
Aren't you afraid of some other beast or something?
Their movements were fast, and Guo Sen watched as they cut off a large number of pieces of flesh, knocking off the bones, as well as the three long horns that were nearly a meter long and the two fangs they had seen before.
Hmm, do you know that this can make all kinds of things? This is a lot better than the civilization they showed before.
Active hunting, eating meat, and maybe even making something out of those sharp horns.
Lads, take care of you.
Ran goose.
Guo Sen watched them remove all the bones and pull out the tendons in the flesh-
They only carried these away, and threw the meat aside......
it, what's the situation?
Forgot about the meat, I said!
The legion, of more than three hundred people, had no interest in meat, and happily carried them and walked back.
Guo Sen was speechless.
You guys, you haven't changed.
The gaze followed them closely, and the pieces of meat that had been cut and discarded were targeted by a flock of birds in the sky and small carnivores lurking nearby, and the two sides fought again......
The primitive people collectively returned to the direction of the tribe, and Guo Sen saw that they soon came to the river, and began to carefully clean the bones, horns and fangs.
After a bit of scrubbing, they returned to the fire under the treehouse.
The bones were broken into dozens of parts, and they placed the widest front and rear leg bones separately, and a female primitive was responsible for tying one end of it with a straw rope to make a weapon similar to a wooden club.
Small bones such as ribs are removed and placed on a stone to be carefully sharpened, and the tips gradually become sharpened, and after being tied to the straw rope at one end, they become a short, easy-to-collect bone blade.
As for the large bones such as the vertebrae and skull, they were placed in places where the sun was stronger, and Guo Sen guessed that they would only deal with them later.
The tendons that came out of the flesh were a sticky, tough ribbon-like object that primitive people had put on a flat stone slab and hammered it vigorously, as if it had been used for another purpose.
As for the two fangs and the three horns, someone is constantly polishing, and it is impossible to see what to do for the time being.
However, when he saw that primitive people had begun to cut down thin branches and cut them into long sticks with stone blades, with sharp tops, he finally understood what they were going to do.
I'm going to make bows and arrows!
The fangs and horns may be the bow, and the tendons are the bowstrings!
This is just a conjecture, though.
Guo Sen decided to observe for a few more days.
Fruit and vegetable paste lovers, as they used to see, go to the mud by the river to grow crops, harvest fruits, and then cook fruit and vegetable paste.
Cycle.
During this period, the tendons of the beast were gradually tempered, becoming stronger and more elastic.
They joined the tendons to the curved horns and fangs, and succeeded in making five bows......
Standard process.
And this shape is extremely exquisite, and the arc is just right.
No, when did they have this kind of consciousness to make bows and arrows?
In just over 30 years, it shouldn't be so quick to master, right?
That's a little weird.
Originally, it was enough for these fruit and vegetable goy lovers to make stone blades and stone spears, after all, for vegetarians, these things were almost useless.
And the bow and arrow are not to mention.
Technology can't develop by leaps and bounds in a short period of time, right?
If you think about another primitive tribe, there are no bows and arrows, not to mention the lizardmen.
If you think about it carefully, the races with bows and arrows that I have seen so far, except for the white wolf clan, are the birdman tribes I saw last time.
Could it be that there are two races in the vicinity, and fruit and vegetable gosy lovers have learned their skills in making them?
Guo Sen raised his gaze and looked at the land where the White Wolf Clan and the Birdman Tribe were located.
Where they are, they're all quite far away from here.
In this backward primitive civilization, it is simply impossible to transfer technology here.
Could it be that these fruit and vegetable goy lovers have realized it themselves?
In just a few decades?
In Guo Sen's heart, the existence of this primitive tribe is a paradox, and it is even more incomprehensible to see that they have developed mature bow and arrow making skills in just a few decades.
In his opinion, the bow and arrow should be a long process from scratch, and it will go through countless improvements before it will have its current shape.
However, it only took them a few decades.
It doesn't make sense in any way.
Guo Sen began to carefully search all the lands from the beginning of the Fruit and Vegetable Slimy Tribe to the current place.
If they had defeated any tribe, the appearance of this bow would have been explained.
However, Guo Sen searched back and forth for almost every inch of land on the continent, and found no sign of any intelligent beings other than this tribe and the lizardmen tribe, as well as the primitive people who were still advancing deeper into the land.
This became a mystery.
Could it be that the brains of these guys who only eat fruit and vegetables, because of some kind of opportunity, have evolved rapidly in the past thirty years and invented their own bows?
With endless questions, Guo Sen paid attention to them for nearly half a year, trying to find even the slightest clue, but he still found nothing.
In the end, he could only raise his gaze and divert his attention.
There are also three landmasses that have not been explored.
You can't always focus on one land.
The closest place is a continent with numerous lakes and rivers, dominated by mountains and grasslands.
More than anywhere else, it is home to a number of islands, some of which are intimidatingly large, with towering peaks.
However, a considerable area of this land is between the cold zone and the temperate zone, and in terms of temperature, it is not too suitable for the survival of humanoids.
The tropics and subtropics are very small, and basically because of the cloud-like plateaus that those regions have, temperatures are not expected to be much higher.
But there are no absolutes.
Before Guo Sen could take a closer look at the grassland that occupied the largest part of the land, he saw black shadows, constantly entering and exiting between the forest and the grassland.
He immediately set his gaze on the creatures, which looked like erect humanoids.
However.
These people ...... Isn't it a little too big?
