prehistoric calendar

Gu sat by the campfire, roasting large pieces of horse meat and horse legs. After each piece was roasted, he ate it with big mouthfuls.

"...Eight muscles have been stretched, which are specifically distributed in the following locations..."

"...The bones in the arms, shoulders, and waist are slightly damaged..."

"...The damage to the internal organs is not significant..."

Shi's voice kept ringing in Gu's mind, and finally Shi said: "In general, according to the intensity of your battle today, it should be no problem for you to continue fighting for ten minutes, but if it exceeds ten minutes, your body will

The damage you receive will accumulate beyond the critical point. Although you will not lose your combat effectiveness all of a sudden, you will feel a weakening of strength and fatigue, and then the combat will drop sharply, and energy consumption is also a big problem."

Gu nodded slightly and said: "Well, ten minutes... I understand, by the way, you have been monitoring my body during this battle. Do you have any suggestions for my current body structure?"

"...Sorry, I'm just a slime." Shi said speechlessly.

Gu suddenly rubbed his head in distress. He actually knew what Shi said. Shi's consciousness and intelligence came from the drop of blood in his body. After a long period of infection by various pictures, emotions, memory information, etc.

Next, it was by chance that such an intellectual consciousness as Shi was born.

, but in essence, it is still just a slime. It has knowledge, but it does not have the ability to flexibly apply this knowledge. For example, when reshaping the body for Gu, it copied and applied it according to the biological knowledge, so it was

At that time, Gu was on the verge of death.

What Gu wanted was advice, advice on changes to make his body stronger.

"It seems that you need to fight with stronger beings to know your own weaknesses more clearly. Also, these soldiers of all races are actually no different from us humans in terms of strength, speed, reaction ability, etc. It's just that they have

It's just more sophisticated armor and weapons. If we humans also have the same sophisticated weapons and equipment, then all races will have nothing to do..." Gu was eating meat while looking at another bonfire more than ten meters away.

The dozen or so humans he saved,

These more than ten human beings are all primitive humans. They are the same primitive humans who were born on the edge of this desert as Gu. After being rescued by Gu, these more than ten humans are obviously afraid of Gu. On the one hand, they suffered from Gu before they encountered him.

They received a terrible blow, but on the other hand, Gu's powerful strength made them feel a fatal threat.

I understand this. Unless you are a close relative or a very familiar partner, when you are close to a powerful being, your instinct will keep telling you of danger. Even the bravest person will be afraid. In this situation, Gu himself will

After encountering it, and after obtaining the knowledge passed down from history, Gu Geng knew that this fear is necessary for the survival of life, because only with this kind of fear can life be preserved at the beginning of reproduction. Without this kind of fear,

The life of fearful emotion was extinct long ago when it was first born.

So Gu did not approach these dozen people. He was a human being and would not hurt them. In this case, it only took more time for them to naturally accept Gu's existence. This was Gu's idea.

After hearing Gu talking to himself, Shi said: "That's just because you have little knowledge. Gu, let Mr. Shi tell you the truth. The so-called human beings have always been slaughtered by thousands of people and hunted.

Captured and used as meat, livestock, slaves, or experimental subjects. In the eyes of all races, human beings actually do not pose any threat at all. No, it is not so much a threat. It is better to say that in the eyes of all races, human beings are just a

It’s more suitable to plant the weak, garbage-like ants that live in the wild.”

Gu ate the meat silently. He showed neither anger nor disbelief. He was just trying his best to think about the meaning of Shi's words.

Shi Jiu continued: "This world is vast and boundless, and it is called the Great Desolate Continent..."

"I know this." Gu Jiu said: "The Great Continent is the name of the world we live in, and Wanzu is the name of the collection of many, many races. I know all of this, and I also know that Wanzu is hostile to us humans and often

Attacking and killing us humans, other than that? Why do you say that we humans are weak ants living in the wild? These races are not that strong. Except that they have things made of metal, maybe their civilization is better than

We are strong, but we are all intelligent beings, all..."

Shi interrupted Gu and said: "Gu, you are my friend. I don't want to offend you, but what I said is indeed true... I probably became conscious five or six hundred years ago, specifically.

I don’t know how much. At first, my consciousness was very ignorant. Although it was much smarter than ordinary slimes, it was still just a newborn consciousness. It was almost the same as when you were two or three years old. Many things I just saw but didn’t understand.

I understand. Fortunately, I am a slime, and I am lucky and did not die immediately... In short, when I first gave birth to consciousness, all races and humans were still living together on the primitive continent, in a land rich in water and grass.

, there are all races and humans, and all races at that time were also primitive tribes."

Gu nodded slightly, and Shi continued: "For things like civilization and knowledge, the more people there are, the greater the chance of new things being produced. I'm not very clear about this. After all, I'm just a slime.

, but I will look at it. Looking back now, when humans and other races lived together, except for a few races, human fertility was extremely strong, surpassing that of most races. At the same time, humans were also smart enough.

, in just one or two hundred years, many large tribes with more than tens of thousands appeared, and these large tribes began to build stone buildings, city walls, and metal weapons. At that time, all races could only rely on bodies that surpassed humans.

If we have the strength to confront humans, humans are still vaguely stronger than many other races.”

"But as time passed, extraordinary beings began to be born among all races. This was a turning point. Extraordinary beings from all races seemed to be born with a lot of knowledge, and they gradually taught this knowledge to their own races. At the same time, as these extraordinary beings from all races

The number of extraordinary beings in the tribe is increasing. They begin to sacrifice to gods, create religions, build temples and so on. Then as long as the sacrifices are enough, the gods will often show miracles, or give knowledge, or give gifts.

Some extremely powerful artifacts or the like, or giving protection to the tribe where the temple is located. In short, these are things that humans cannot imagine. So as time goes by, all races become stronger and stronger, and there are more and more extraordinary people.

At the same time, the sacrifices to the gods are getting more and more feedback, and humans have become the targets of hunting."

Gujiu immediately asked: "Have we humans not given birth to extraordinary beings? Why don't we humans offer sacrifices to gods?"

Shi Jiu said: "What I know is that there is no extraordinary person in human beings. The birth of an extraordinary person is an accidental event. Only one extraordinary person is born out of tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands. And extraordinary people are born."

The probability of extraordinary beings being born among the descendants of those who have extraordinary beings is much greater than the chance of being born naturally among ordinary mortals. Therefore, in those races with extraordinary beings, extraordinary people will become clan leaders, leaders, etc., and then interact with a large number of people of the opposite sex.

Mate and give birth to more children, so that there will be more and more extraordinary people in the race. At the same time, some of them are more selfless and will teach other people the knowledge they have gained after becoming extraordinary people. Although some mortals

They cannot awaken to extraordinary beings on their own, but they can use this knowledge to train themselves to become extraordinary beings, and this is also a way to become extraordinary beings.”

"But humans cannot become extraordinary. Even if they have knowledge, they cannot become extraordinary. This seems to be the law of heaven and earth. It may be because the level of human life is too low and the genes are too weak to carry extraordinary power. Even if

There are very occasional examples of extraordinary beings appearing in human beings, but they are not true extraordinary beings. They seem to be called aliens. They are usually accompanied by huge defects and side effects. At the same time, they are unable to give birth to the next generation and cannot reproduce.

Pass on this bloodline and power to the clan."

"As for offering sacrifices to gods, I have seen many human tribes offer sacrifices to gods over hundreds of years, offering sacrifices to heaven and earth, offering sacrifices to sun and moon, offering sacrifices to nature, but there is no response. Even after offering sacrifices to heaven and earth, offering sacrifices to sun and moon, these tribes often encounter

Natural disasters and man-made disasters often lead to quick destruction, so if this continues..."

Shi said nothing and Gu just looked down at the bonfire in silence.

Gu knew what would happen in the long run. This was the same as the hunting of the Pan tribe. It must be hunting herbivorous animals. For creatures with teeth, claws, or poisonous stings and fangs, unless they encounter them, unless they can guarantee safety.

When hunting, or when there is a serious shortage of food, otherwise they will not deliberately search for it, because it is risky, and once injured, it often means the death of the tribe.

This principle should apply to all parts of the prehistoric continent. When all races become stronger and stronger, but humans stagnate, and when the strength gap reaches a certain critical point, all races will begin to attack the surrounding human tribes.

In particular, Shi mentioned that sacrifices are needed to worship gods. There is no doubt that human beings are the best sacrifices...

After Shi Zhenggu accepted this information, it continued: "In the past few hundred years, in those places with abundant water and grass and fertile land, all human tribes have long since disappeared, and almost all of them have been wiped out by all races. Only

The remaining primitive humans wandering in the wilderness have no language, no tribes, no hunting grounds, and no fixed residence. They are increasingly looked down upon by all races, and their strength has become weaker and weaker. They have become ants in the mouths of all races...

Only in dangerous places like your original tribe, deserts, deserts, mountains, and swamps, can human tribes exist."

Gu nodded silently again, recalling the knowledge taught by the Red Sage and the experiences narrated by the Red Sage.

The Red Sage once taught in ancient times about the growth of tribal population, the fixed harvest of food from surrounding hunting grounds, and the limit distance that can be reached in each hunting cycle. From this, the number of people that a piece of land can carry can be calculated. Once it exceeds

, then some people in this tribe will starve to death until the population returns to the allowed value. This is what the Red Sage said before teaching them to plant agriculture. Only agriculture can increase the population that a piece of land can carry.

number.

"...However, even if agriculture can increase the population carrying capacity, this number has a limit. The land that each person can cultivate and work is limited, and the food that the land can produce is limited, but the population is growing at an explosive rate, so there will be

This leads to the demand for more land, which leads to the birth of cities, villages, and more people moving towards the distant land to create a second city... This is the development of civilization. This is an iron law, which will inevitably lead to the population moving towards suitable surrounding land.

Start marching, which is why wars occur. The population of Wanzu is also growing. They will inevitably move towards the surrounding lands. The barren mountains and rivers that were looked down upon at the beginning will gradually become acceptable lands, so sooner or later, Wanzu will

The clan will come here, and now it is just a battle between their advance personnel and the large tribe standing outside the desert. No, that is not a battle, it is more like... running over."

Gu was still young at that time and could not understand the expression of the Red Sage. He only thought that the Red Sage's grandfather looked very ferocious at that time. Now Gu knows that it is not ferocious, but hatred, and the hatred is as deep as the sea.

Hatred!

(Why don’t we humans have supernatural beings? Why don’t gods respond to our human sacrifices? There must be some reason... If we can find this reason, then we can also become extraordinary people like all races, and also be protected by gods.

!Yes, find the reason!)

Gu suddenly asked Xiang Shi again: "Shi, are the extraordinary beings similar to the robed tribe that destroyed my tribe?"

Shi said: "That should be magicians. In addition to magicians, there are also warriors, knights, warlocks, druids and so on... They can be roughly divided into extraordinary professions of war type and extraordinary professions of legal system. And, you

The magician I encountered was actually not very powerful. In the past few hundred years, I have seen several super powerful extraordinary beings. The strongest one among them directly destroyed a mountain range in one breath and beat the mountain range into pieces.

Fragments, that is a horror you can never imagine!"

"Mountains!?" Gu was really shocked, and he said blankly: "That high mountain behind my tribe?"

"It's much bigger than that!" Shi Jiu said seriously: "It's a big, big, very big mountain range, so you understand? I just said that you haven't met the extraordinary, and your sister has never met the powerful extraordinary. That's all.

That’s why all races regard humans as ants, and I also think humans are very weak.”

(Such a mountain range... can be destroyed by life? So what is the difference between this and a natural disaster? Sister... Sister will never be able to defeat such an existence...)

Gu's heart was heavy, and he was stunned for a moment, holding a piece of meat in a daze.

Suddenly, a voice came and said: "...Hey, are you...also from a nearby tribe?"

Gu looked over and saw several humans he had rescued standing five or six meters away. The leader was a young man. He asked Gu timidly.
