Section 39: Logging

Needle Gold issued orders continuously, whether it was yellow algae, cyanobacteria, white buds, cangbeard and others, they were all awe-inspiring.

But when he looked around and around, he still saw the flickering gazes of the exploration team members.

"Now, if anyone has a different idea, bring it up immediately!" the Templars would never condemn anyone who dared to speak out. ”

No one spoke, and a few opened their mouths to speak.

Needle Gold's face was slightly gloomy.

He knew he still hadn't built up enough prestige as a leader.

Cangsu spoke at the right time: "My lord, your decision is undoubtedly wise. Flying squirrel bosses can produce electric shocks that kill people, but their numbers are very rare. The archery skills and flying daggers of adults have always been a hundred shots!"

"We've had a lot of encounters with beasts in the past, and aside from the sheep, this flying squirrel herd is the weakest. If we give up, I'm afraid we won't have the good luck to meet a more suitable target than the flying squirrel swarm. ”

"The suggestion is that we can work on tactics. With the right tactics, it's easier for us to defeat these stupid flying squirrels. After all, human brains are much smarter than beasts. ”

"Good. Needle Gold nodded, with a look of approval on his face, "Scholar Cangsu, your opinion is very pertinent. In fact, we just have to get enough food. We can attract flying squirrels in batches, control the scale of the battle, and as long as we hunt enough food, we don't have to fight the flying squirrel boss. ”

Needle gold is actually a bit taken for granted.

Bestiality is difficult to fathom, especially since everyone is very unfamiliar with these flying squirrels, and the contact time is very short. On this island, life like flying squirrels has strong man-made traces and is not a natural creation. So, it's really hard to say what the habits are.

Whether it is needle gold or cangmus, they all know these truths.

But after this deliberate conversation, everyone was no longer as shaken as before, and some people's eyes became firm again, and their morale rose to a certain extent.

The prestige of the needle gold has not been established, and Cangsu's combat power is very weak, but combined with the influence of the two, it can still mobilize the enthusiasm of the entire exploration team.

Needle Gold is becoming more and more satisfied with the bargmus.

He secretly commented in his heart: "Cangsu knows how to cooperate with me, perhaps, this aspect is where he is better than Zidi." ”

"Although Zidi is the president of the Chamber of Commerce, she is still too young in the end, and her main energy and time are devoted to magic practice. ”

"Although Cangsu has no strength, he has served the nobles for half his life and has a wealth of experience, and he has always been the one who assisted me in controlling this exploration team. ”

After breakfast, everyone sprang into action.

This is a forest landscape, and as far as the eye can see, it is full of trees.

To make a short bow, you need the right wood.

"We now need two kinds of wood, one for the arms of the short bow, and the other for the bowstring, which we use only the bark. How to choose, I don't know, you still need to look at the white buds and Lord Cangsu. "Yellow algae looked at the whiskers and white buds.

The old scholar smiled: "Although this island is full of strange and strange mutated beasts, there are relatively few mutations in trees and grass. I think these kinds of trees are our targets. ”

Bai Ya said: "Lord Huangzao, my father and I also used to cut down trees and make our own hunting bows. I took a cursory look and saw that this tree was the closest to my memory. ”

Combined with the experience of white buds, the knowledge of Cangxu, and the practical test of chopping trees by Huang Zao, the three of them successfully finalized two kinds of trees.

Then the yellow algae started to chop down the trees.

In the end, he is a bronze-level warrior, and his strength is far beyond ordinary people.

The blade from the Blade Spider was extremely sharp, and with a single slash, the tree tilted slowly and fell to the ground.

White Bud stepped forward, sliced into the trunk with the blade of a knife, and then expertly pried a piece of bark open. The bark is black-green and very the outside, but when the white bud turns the bark over, he sees the inner layer of the bark.

The inner layer of bark is yellow-green, and the white buds touch it, and there is a slippery feeling from the fingers.

He nodded slightly and commented, "This inner layer of bark should be able to make high-grade hemp rope." ”

The three of them picked the big tree again.

The tree was much thicker than the one that had been cut down before.

Huang Zao pulled out the sharp blade lent by the needle gold and was about to make a move.

Cangsu stopped him: "Don't use such a sharp weapon, use an axe." This kind of sharp weapon can only be used by the transcendent to exert its true power, and ordinary people still use axes to cut wood. ”

Yellow algae is as good as a stream, and an axe is used to chop tree trunks.

Iron swords are used for felling and are easy to curl. People don't do this unless they have to.

The expedition team carried several axes. Originally, it was mainly for the convenience of collecting food, such as bananas, coconuts, etc. The second is to cut down a road. If a stable source of food is found, there is a convenient road, which is very convenient.

Huang Zao waved his thick arm and slashed a dozen times before he cut a gap in the trunk.

"If I could use my fighting spirit, I would be able to chop down this damn tree with just an axe!" muttered Huang Zao, not satisfied with his performance.

Bronze-level fighting energy, although it can't be attached to the weapon, nor can it cover the surface of the body, but after urging, it can greatly increase people's physical fitness. Depending on the Dou Qi technique, the cultivator will also focus on improving his strength, speed, endurance, and recovery power.

After a few more cuts, the gap in the trunk of the tree finally widened to the point of qualitative change.

The yellow algae changed direction and pushed the trunk hard, and the tree was knocked down.

Then he swung his axe and chopped a section of the trunk, then took the core of the tree and cut it into planks.

The long wooden plank was very satisfied after the two of them saw it.

The whiskers made the yellow algae deliberately bend the plank, and the toughness of the plank was very good.

The three of them were overjoyed, and things were going very well.

"Let's go back and report to Lord Needle that it's time to bring someone to cut down these trees. Asusu made a decision.

The location of the three of them was near the camp, which had long been cleared and was relatively safe.

Soon, the trio returned to the camp.

Needle Gold sits in the camp and dominates the whole situation.

Knowing the results of the three of them, Needle Gold thought for a while and asked Cangsu: "How many people do you think is appropriate, and how long will it take for us to get enough wood?"

Cangsu had obviously thought about it on the way back, and immediately replied at this moment: "Of course, the more people, the better, but my lord, we have a few points to pay attention to at the moment. ”

"The first is the safety of the felling squad. Generally, when logging in the more dangerous wilderness, patrols and escorts will be equipped. Although the members of the exploration team are all warriors, their physical strength is limited, and logging is a very heavy physical work, which will make people tired, so the combat power will also drop a lot. If there is really danger, it will be difficult for the logging team members to resist. ”

"The second is food, and I suggest that some people be drawn and try to gather food around as much as possible. The harvest will certainly not be much, but our grain reserves have reached the warning line, even if there is only a little more grain, it is good. ”

"Thirdly, the wood can be used more. We can not only make short bows, but also set up more fortifications. On the way back, I spoke with Bai Ya, and he knew many of the traps of hunters. We could have set up traps a little more, a little bigger, and impractical to deal with people, but those flying squirrels are beasts. We have a huge intellectual advantage. ”

"Fourth, and I think that's the most critical and hardest place to solve. We are actually very short on time, but whether it is the hemp rope used to make the bowstring or the short bow arm, it needs to be dried. It takes at least a day to make bowstrings and short bows. It will take at least two days to dry. There will be very little time left for us to train. ”

As before, Cangsu provided a lot of pertinent advice for needle gold.

Needle Gold nodded, and the beard was still as reliable as ever.

Needle Jin has always believed that Cangsu is the best candidate for management officials, and scheduling personnel is not so simple. In this regard, Zidi does not have enough experience. Yellow algae, cyanobacteria, good at fighting. According to Needle Jin's understanding, this team of brothers has not made any achievements in command. All you can do is take the lead.

For Cang Xu's distress, Needle Gold smiled and calmly took out the potion.

In the next moment, Needle Gold had already seen Cang Xu's eyes light up.

"I'm already prepared for this. ”

"There are two potions here, one to rub on the bow arm, and one to dry the bark that has just been torn off quickly, and it will be fine in one night. ”

"But beware, this potion only lasts for one day. ”

These potions were all improvised by Zidi.

Before Needle Gold discussed the matter of the bow and crossbow with Zidi, these potions were the main results.

Cangsu was overjoyed: "It would be great to have this. ”

There is not enough food, and time becomes very critical.

The potion may seem insignificant, but it actually solves the biggest problem facing the exploration team.

Needle Gold then accepted the order of Cangsu and was responsible for leading the team to cut wood.

He also ordered Bai Ya to collect food, accompanied by yellow algae, and was responsible for the safety of Bai Ya and others. On the other hand, it is necessary to continue to clear the area around the camp.

Huang Zao is a bronze-level strength, even if he can't urge the fighting spirit, his combat power is beyond that of ordinary warriors.

"It's just that in this way, everyone is assigned to the logging team, the search team, and there is no one around the logging team to act as a guard. "Cangsu said sadly.

The exploration team was originally relatively large, but by the time Needle Gold took over, there were only a dozen people left. After that, he suffered a poisoning incident, and his combat power and physical strength declined in an all-round way. What used to be a one-person task can now take one, a half, or even two. As a result, manpower is very tight.

"Don't worry, I will be the escort of the logging team. Needle Gold spoke.

Cang Xu suddenly relieved his heart, the vicinity of the needle gold must be the safest place!

He had thought that the needle gold would be guarding Zidi's side. Although her strategic significance has decreased a lot on this island, Zidi is a magician after all.

Cangsu muttered, "In this way, do you want to accept the fate of cyanobacteria to guard the camp?"

Needle Jin shook his head: "No, it is very important to detect the enemy's situation. Cyanobacteria still have to find out the details of the flying squirrel community. He can act alone. Others are not strong enough, and it is a drag to go. ”

Cang Xu frowned and reminded, "Then the safety of Lord Zidi ......"

Needle Jin smiled: "I communicated with her, and she was left alone in the camp." She is also a pharmacist and has the means to protect herself. If there is any danger that is difficult to solve, our logging team is near the camp, and I can immediately reinforce it. ”

Cang Xu no longer had any objections, he knew that the exploration team was short of manpower, and the arrangement of needle gold was already done to the extreme.
