"It's good to encounter natural disasters at the beginning, and if we destroy natural disasters, we will be invincible, the overlord of the ice field, go south and destroy all weak civilizations." The more Xia Xiao spoke, the more energetic she became, and a blackened smile appeared on her face.

Qiu You stopped her from continuing to blacken: "If you don't have such good luck, let's find a way to survive first." ”

The two made a plan: one was responsible for building the igloo and the other was responsible for hunting.

The civilization of the two people added up to a hundred people, and the work was very efficient, and soon, a batch of igloos were built on the ice field, and the common settlement of the two civilizations was born.

On the other hand, Xia Xiao also caught a batch of seals near the ice lake, and was lucky to collect some berries.

The two found that the biggest difficulty in developing in the ice fields was not the acquisition of resources, but the creation of fires. The two of them tried their best to light the flame, and when they lit the flame, they found that the weather was too cold to boil a pot of snow water.

They stopped the tribesmen from eating raw meat, and soon, the two "invented" the fire pit, and the two civilizations finally ate cooked food.

Two days later, the two of them made a sleigh and caught a few Erha. With the blessing of Xia Xiao's [Master of Domestication], these Erha can quickly become sled dogs, which makes it easier to transport supplies.

By the way, they also worked out a way to "bathe" on the ice field. This method is what Qiu You learned when he watched a documentary: build a fire in an igloo, cover your body with seal fur, and when it is so hot that you sweat, use a horn board to scrape off the stolen goods and apply seal fat.

Although this method is not very comfortable, it can prevent frostbite and cracking of the skin. After this method of bathing spread among the two civilizations, the number of people with frostbite did decrease a lot.

A week later, the two of them also completely understood how to play the Ice Plains Civilization.

The conclusion is: no play.

Although the game gives a lot of preferential treatment to civilizations born in the ice fields, and they are much stronger in terms of combat power than civilizations born in the middle and low latitudes, the development of the ice fields is too difficult.

Even survival is a problem, let alone the development of civilization.

The logic of the development of general civilization is that after establishing a base area, it organizes production, obtains a surplus of resource output, and then uses this surplus to build a population and build facilities, and uses these to achieve the purpose of expansion.

And the Ice Plains civilization has a hard time making a surplus, or rather, it can't make a surplus at all.

The output of the ice field is zero, completely zero, whether it is food, minerals, it is zero.

The only way to get a yield is to hunt seals and whales to get a lot of resources at once.

Because there is no constant output of resources, civilization is quite fragile.

It is possible that if you increase the population a little, you will encounter unprecedented cold, you will not be able to hunt, and the population will starve to death, which is equivalent to working in vain.

At present, in the territory of the two civilizations of Xia Xiao and Qiuyou, there is only one ice lake with a fixed output of 1 food output, and another black rock has a mineral output, and the rest of the place is white land.

With this output, food and clothing cannot be satisfied, let alone development and expansion.

If you want to play the civilization of the ice field well, you need to keep moving. Everywhere you go, you destructively mine all the resources in one place, pack them up, and then move to the next place.

Although it takes very few resources to move to an icefield civilization, migration is still a risky game, and if there is an attack on the migration path, or if there is not enough supplies, there is a good chance that the entire civilization will be destroyed.

However, once the Ice Plains civilization successfully moved into the lower latitudes, their combat power would increase exponentially.

Imagine, if you are an ordinary civilization, when you find out that there is no major threat in the surrounding area, you can farm and develop with peace of mind, but suddenly a fierce civilization moves to the side of your capital, constantly harassing you, and even directly attacking your city.

If the defense is not effective and the opponent invades the territory, all kinds of resources will be looted in a devastating manner, and the infrastructure on the plot will also be destroyed, which is a heavy drain on the national strength.

If the army is gathered to exterminate, it will delay farming, and the other side is very flexible, and if it finds that it cannot win the war, it can immediately move away, leaving only a pile of over-exploited rotten land.

But this is the most ideal situation, after all, an ice field nomad, when they come to the low latitude area, if the civilization in the low latitude area is not a rookie, it will have developed a long time ago, and it will not be easily defeated by the nomadic with backward scientific and technological level.

After a detailed discussion of the future development path, Xia Xiao and Qiu You formulated a plan.

If you want to develop, you still have to move, and as for the destination of the migration, you must confirm it as soon as possible.

They plan to form an elite scout team, with the highest loyalty and solid survival skills.

This team is their pioneer, and once they have detected a suitable migration site, they will quickly set off, while the scouts continue to scout and continue to find new places to live.

After the resources of the new settlement are extracted, they quickly move to the next habitable point, and so on to the lower latitudes, until they finally enter the temperate zone with a milder climate.

Thereupon...... After spending more than 30 points of food, the scout squad was set up.

The more than 30 points of food were prepared for the scout team on the road. For the current civilization of the two, it is quite painful, but it is a necessary expense.

Half a month has passed.

In half a month, Xia Xiao and Qiu You did a lot of things, one was to successfully tame the hunting dog herd around the settlement and obtain a large number of high-quality hunting dogs. The second is to use the tougher wood on the ice field to make a rudimentary bow and arrow.

However, as time went on, the scout's lack of news still made the two more and more anxious.

The nearby seal colony is getting harder and harder to catch, and there are no new habitable spots, and when the summer is completely over, the two civilizations will have a long polar night, and it will be difficult for them to survive.

Fortunately, after the 20th day of departure, the scouts returned, but instead of good news, they brought back bad news.

"What? Ice and snow civilization? ”

After listening to the description of the clansmen, Qiu You and Xia Xiao glanced at each other, and the expressions on their faces became solemn.

Two or three days away from their settlement, there was another civilization.

According to the Scout's description, this civilization is a bit special, they are a "magical civilization"!

In the game "End of Civilization", for entertainment, there is not only a technology tree on the technology side, but also a variety of strange civilizations.

Some civilizations have immortal cultivators, one person can destroy a country, and some people know ninjutsu, and their combat effectiveness is strong......

After defeating these civilizations, players can gain the legacies of these civilizations and embark on a different path from science......

It's just that, in order to prevent the balance of the game from being disrupted, whether it is magic, ninjutsu, or cultivating immortals, the development route is a dead end, and they study exercises and spells, often through the study of ancient documents, the older the stronger.

Therefore, when the ancient documents are studied, there will be no follow-up, and there will be a dead end.

There is no limit to the development of science and technology, and when human civilization develops to the later stage, these alien civilizations will be completely unable to do it.

It can be said that walking on the magic side is an entertaining way of playing.

However, this time, the ice and snow civilization encountered by Xia Xiao and Qiu You does not seem to be in the "dead end".

This is a civilization that can manipulate ice and snow magic, but they don't need to delve into magic, and their magical power and technology are not exclusive.

On the contrary, for this kind of civilization, the ice field happens to be the home map, and settling in the ice field, this civilization is directly two gears stronger.

In other words, if you master the Ice Wind and Snow Magic, not only will you dramatically increase your combat power in the early stage, but it will not affect the later points of the technology tree.

Xia Xiao and Qiu You's eyes lit up after thinking about this.

Taking down this wild NPC civilization has undoubtedly become their inevitable choice!
