Chapter 140: Life on the Riverbank
"Structuring, shaping, traversing the ocean."
On the twin islands of the distant ocean, the Head Worm is lying on the beach with the Wyvern, and it plans to build a ship that can move on the sea out of wood, because in the battle with the Inca Swarm, the Head Worm realizes the importance of moving in the water, and it also intends to produce aquatic troops, but for the Head Bug Clan, it is not so easy to create a new class, and it will take a long time.
So, it's better to build a ship.
Shipbuilding requires a lot of technology, and the head worm thinks so, but what it doesn't know is that there is a group of dwarf creatures in the far reaches of the continent who have also mastered this technology......
…………
It is a river that crosses the wasteland, the only stable source of water in the wasteland, and is also known as the 'River of Dragons', which is the name given by the skeletal dragons, because the river often has a giant dinosaur passing through it, and recently, there has been a new group of inhabitants along the river near the salt land.
After the transformation from jungle gnomes to river gnomes, the lives of gnomes changed a lot, and the gnomes did not like to live alone, so they used various bones they found on the road to create a cave-shaped 'house' by the river, and their territory was also full of bones, and they especially liked to string some skulls together and stick them around the house, which seemed to have a frightening effect on some other creatures.
This can probably be called a 'terror totem'.
Gnomes are very well adapted to new environments, and their dark-loving skin quickly adapts to the sun, but the original gnomes mainly feed on small pterodactyls and their eggs on cliffs. Their blow arrows are also perfect for dealing with these small, light-skinned pterosaurs. But in the wasteland here. There are huge dinosaurs and all kinds of dangers everywhere, and the gnomes have adopted a special way to deal with this danger.
"Wow! Ahh Oooh! "On the banks of the river in the scorching sun, the new leader of the gnomes waved the thigh bone in his hand, and it was directing the gnomes to tie together a hollow bone from the dry vines they had found nearby to make the shape of a leaf.
The bone and vine ship was three meters long and one and a half meters wide, and the gnomes were quite skilled in building. It looks like they've been built before.
Lynn's pom-poms have been mostly concerned about the lives of these gnomes lately, and if they don't adapt, they may become extinct, and now the pom-poms have changed color to observe them from above.
The leader commanded the gnomes to make ten boats, each with five gnomes on it, blowing arrows and other weapons, and after getting on the boats, a large number of gnomes pushed them into the river.
The leader himself sat on one of the boats, which had been piled up with bones so that it could stand on it, when they were all in the water. The leader exclaimed, raising his thigh bones; "Wow, oh, oh!"
Maybe that's what it means to move forward.
The pom-pom followed them to the river, and Lynn had not been sure where the river was going. Now is the time to find out where the river flows.
Over the years, in addition to observing the lives of various creatures and building bases, Lynn has mainly been working on a special kind of thing, which has been completed in general, but needs to wait for a special time to start......
Until then, let's continue to observe their lives, and the dream world...... In the dream world, in addition to creating a different and interesting world, there are many other uses, such as Lin can put together some classes there, and then piece them together outside.
This can save nutrients very much, and it is very troublesome to use more nutrients to transform it if you are not satisfied with it, and it is very fast.
But for now, let's take a look outside......
The gnome boats don't have much propulsion, they let the boat drift slowly down the slow river, and if they want to change direction, they will use some longer leg bones to row, but the boat made purely of bones and vines does not enter the water at all, which is a very good structure.
Apparently, they should have made something like this before, though they weren't seen on the cliff side.
Lin followed the gnomes to the center of the river, they floated on the water for more than a hundred meters and then stopped, the current here is quite slow, it seems to be a good place to stop the boat, under the command of the chief, the gnomes jumped into the water, the leader has been staying in the boat, and some gnomes are responsible for stabilizing the boat by the side of the boat, not letting the boat change its position.
After a while, the gnomes in the water swam up, and almost every one of them had fish or some other aquatic creature in their mouths, and they threw the fish into the boat and dived to catch them.
Gnomes are very good swimmers, and boats are used for them to hold food rather than move them.
I see, instead of hunting the intractable dinosaurs and trap plants of the wasteland, they catch these fish to eat? In that case, then it is time to live, and Lynn should leave, and the pom-pom will continue to float upstream, where something special may be found.
Something special......?
Just as Lynn was thinking this, Pom-pom suddenly saw a white object appear on the river, and it slowly floated down the current.
This is...... White Dragon? Sure enough, they are also distributed in other places, and you have to go upstream to take a look.
"Wow?" The gnome leader saw the white skeleton dragon floating down the water, and the white skeleton dragon was floating right next to its boat, and the leader stretched out his thigh bone in confusion and poked the white skeleton dragon.
"Gah!" The white dragon suddenly reached out and grabbed the thigh bone in the leader's hand, and it violently dragged the gnome leader into the water...
"Wow, ahhhh The gnome leader fell into the water and suddenly screamed, and the gnomes who had been fishing in the water immediately gathered, and they directly bit the whole body of the white skeleton dragon with their fangs, these gnomes were almost as flexible as fish in the water, and the white skeleton dragon did not even have a chance to fight back, and the blood it shed stained the surrounding river red.
"Wow!" After confirming that the other party had been bitten to death, the gnome leader shouted, and all the gnomes immediately pushed the boat and swam back, not even the corpse of the white dragon......
Lin felt that these gnomes must have lived in the river, otherwise they couldn't have understood so much, and now the blood from the White Skeleton Dragon was spreading in the water, and the smell of blood made it float down again...... Creature. (To be continued......)
