prehistoric calendar

Episode 1 of Eternal Night in the Prehistoric Calendar: The Age of Legends Chapter 44, Chapter 45: The Newborn and the Pre-War Primitives walked through the Wounded Soldiers Camp. This is the mountaintop area behind the seven lines of defense, and it also belongs to this mining area.

the highest and flattest point.

This war was very fierce. Although the battle line only advanced to the fourth layer of defense area, this did not mean that they were able to handle it with ease, but that the situation was so urgent that they could not continue to retreat.

The scene at that time was recalled in my original mind.

When the first layer of defense was broken, the strongman mecha and the opponent's Behemoth fought to the death. Yuan used his cyan aura to block the enemy's pursuit, causing the defense to retreat to the second layer.

This second layer of defense actually occupies a geographical advantage over the first layer of defense. Directly in front of the defense line is a slope passage with a slight slope. However, if you want to rush up from the first line of defense, you are still subject to geographical restrictions, so

The advantage of swarm charge is further reduced.

Originally, I felt that the first line of defense had already caused heavy losses to the orc army. Facing this second line of defense, which had more geographical advantages, the orc army should not be able to charge forward no matter what.

But the facts told him that the orc war tide was really no joke.

Facing the crazy orcs who are not afraid of life and death, the slopes are nothing to be afraid of. These orcs have all become violent. They ignore all death and pain and rush madly. Whether they are low-level orcs or ordinary orcs, they fight hard.

Orcs, or ancient orcs, they trampled each other, but they moved forward regardless of life and death.

The piles of corpses almost filled up the entire slope, and the orcs also used the corpses of their own tribesmen to resist long-range bullets and artillery. If the corpses were smashed and smashed, they would continue to sprint against the bullets and artillery, even if they only sprinted out.

One meter is enough, and then they themselves turned into corpses, and the orcs behind them continued to carry their corpses forward to resist the rush.

This scene is very shocking.

Sprinting forward despite the hail of bullets, there is no life or death, only victory. Even if it is forcibly affected by the tide of war, this momentum is enough to shake everything.

Sure enough, after the second defense line killed a large number of ancient orcs, and after the first orc rushed to the defense line, the rout began, and the casualties were basically concentrated at this time.

After a large number of people rushed to the third line of defense, Zhang Haohuan decisively activated the explosives planted in the second line of defense. This killed hundreds of thousands of ancient orcs and also caused the second line of defense to collapse, effectively

Prevented the ancient orc army from rushing directly to the third line of defense.

At that time, the original plan was to immediately kill all the defeated soldiers and join them with their relatives. However, the people to be killed accounted for almost one-half of the entire army. This was no longer a purge.

Okay, this is direct suicide.

Zhang Haohuan and others immediately stopped Yuan Yuan, and then Zhang Haohuan did one thing...

Have a meal.

That's right, he asked the logistics staff to immediately distribute the meals to everyone, including the frontline soldiers, those who fled, and all the primitive humans in the rear.

The eyes of these primitive humans who had fled back were staring straight, their legs were trembling. None of them had come back to their senses, but they did not dare to think too much. They all circled in front of death, all of them were

They relied on luck to survive, and if they survive this time, they may not survive next time. These primitive humans are very smart. They are just scared to death now. Once they come back to their senses, their last courage will disappear, and they will

No matter how much he is killed by the original, it will not work.

But as soon as food was served, the first reaction of these primitive humans was to start eating. They were frightened by hunger, but at this time they started eating and drinking without caring about anything.

After eating and drinking, many primitive humans began to cry. They cried while eating, and below, densely packed orcs gathered around the second front line. Because the road collapsed, a ten-meter-high slope was formed with an extremely steep slope.

They couldn't get up the cliff for a while, but these orcs piled up frantically at the bottom and started building climbing tools. From the looks of it, they could rush up in an hour or two at most.

At this time, some primitive humans gradually came back to their senses after eating food, and then their eyes began to flicker, and they looked to high places behind them from time to time.

When a tiger eats people, you don't have to be able to beat the tiger, you just need to outrun your companions. This is what "smart people" do.

But there are often too many smart people. We are all smart people. Even if some people are a little dumber, when they see the "smart people" start to run away, they will follow them and then they will still do what the "smart people" do. If

If I can't outrun my companions, I'll use methods other than running to deal with them, such as hitting, tripping, or even killing.

As for whether the tiger will pursue it to the end and kill the last person who escapes, or whether there will be a cliff ahead and everyone will have no way to retreat in the end, these do not exist in the minds of "smart people"

Yes, because if you don’t do this, you may die on the spot, but if you do, you may die later, so you should think about it later.

In fact, primitive humans only lack knowledge, insight, understanding, etc., which does not mean that they are stupid. In fact, almost all primitive humans who have survived until now and have not been killed by the orcs are "smart people".

Including the previous Li Er, Li San and Li Si, they all also belong to this kind of "smart people".

At this time, they want to implement what smart people do. As for whether there is a way to escape behind the seven lines of defense in this mine, and whether they will all be killed by the orcs and ancient orcs, they will not care about these.

Because "smart people" won't take care of it, and those who do are "stupid people".

Then they suddenly saw the clansmen behind them.

The primitive humans who have not gone to the battlefield are basically women, children, old and young. They are also eating food at this time, and looking down from the top of the mountain, they can see everything that happens on the battlefield most clearly, whether it is death.

Whether it is resistance or the actions of the primitive humans now, they all see it, and as compatriots who are most familiar with the habits of these primitive humans, they know very well what these young and middle-aged primitive humans want to do next.

.

At this moment, a primitive human woman suddenly sang a song.

This is a song that does not form a melody, or even a tune. It is a simple tune that praises hunting, harvest, spring and autumn, and the love between men and women.

Gu was stunned in mid-air. He had this tune in his memory. It was the tune that Tan sang before his death on the battlefield with the Spirit Snake Tribe. Of course, the tune was just similar. After all, Tan was from the Cang Tribe.

People, and this tune is undoubtedly the original tribal memory of the primitive tribe.

As someone hummed, gradually, the women, children, and children in the rear began to hum similar tunes. Although they were different, these tunes all carried the original simplicity of primitive people, hunting, harvesting, and courtship.

Sacrifice... Those are not primitive humans who were killed by orcs without their spines, but primitive humans who were brave, strong, and dared to fight all beasts and all disasters to the end. That was their original appearance.

This sound sounded on the top of the mountain, and everyone looked up. The humans in the forbidden area were thoughtful, slowly thinking about the meaning of these tunes, while the primitive humans in the trenches and on the front were stunned.

, they looked at the top of the mountain stupidly, and then most of them slowly became silent, silently eating the food in their hands, and while eating, their tears flowed down.

No one is born a cheap person. If they are not forced to do anything, no one will be willing to kneel down. Even those who can't stand up after kneeling for a long time will not think about kneeling in the first place. If they can,

Who doesn’t want to stand upright and upright?

It's just a massacre of generations. The tough ones are the first to die, then the ones who still retain their self-respect, then the ones who protect the tribe, and then the ones who try not to cooperate and escape...

The result of the massacres from generation to generation is that, except for those who knelt down and waited to be killed, all the others died. Moreover, this massacre that lasted for hundreds of years made the "smart people" the last remnant, and also made the "smart people" the last remnant.

Almost all primitive tribes are "intelligent people".

But this does not mean that they have no right and wrong in their hearts.

Seeing their tribesmen being killed, seeing their relatives being taken away to become poll tax, it is definitely impossible to say that they were willing to do so. The reason why they knelt down was actually just to live, and then they buried all the resentment and anger deep in their hearts.

deepest.

And now, the tunes circulated in their tribe are the past that have been left in their blood by their ancestors from generation to generation. Unless all the people in the tribe are killed, these memories will always exist.

Once upon a time, most of them heard their fathers, their fathers' fathers, and even older people talk about the past of the tribe. In those past stories, the tribe had powerful warriors and endless food.

Food has the sprouts of various civilizations. At that time, the human tribes were not afraid of the orcs at all, and even dared to fight with the orcs...

All this seems to be a myth in the minds of these primitive people. They would never believe it in the past. How could humans possibly match the orcs? How could humans take up weapons and fight the orcs?

They don't believe it.

And now...

Listening to the tunes hummed by the women, children, and children in the tribe, recalling the memories their fathers had told them, and looking at the densely packed orc corpses below, for a moment, the besieging orcs didn't seem so scary anymore.

…

"Their eyes have changed." Xiaogangpao spat out a mouthful of blood, and then said to a few people around him.

"Nonsense, it's come to this point. If they don't change and don't need to take action, I will kill them first." Lao Yanguo answered casually.

At that time, Yuan Yuan was beside these footmen. He was originally angry at Zhang Haohuan's order to stop him from killing people, but at this time, Yuan Yuan also fell silent, because he could also see that these Yuan Yuan, who originally wanted to continue to flee,

Human beings, their momentum has really changed.

That was not the look of a domestic animal, nor was it the look of a weak animal begging for mercy. That look was originally seen on a solitary beast. It was the look of someone who truly had the will to fight to the death.

The subsequent development did not disappoint everyone's expectations. Except for a very small number of "very smart people", the rest of the primitive humans actually dared to fight, and those "very smart people" were directly eliminated by the primitive people. The process was very simple, throwing them towards the orcs below the battle line, but this time Yuan Yuan had some sense of control. At least the relatives of these people who were eliminated did not suffer any consequences, but they were directly torn into pieces by the orcs, and even The smallest bones were devoured.

Until the end of the war, Yuan walked and saw all the primitive humans, all the people who survived, their eyes, their breath, their momentum have all changed, at least now when they see the orcs and ancient orcs. , the first reaction is never to kneel down, but to look for firearms and weapons, and then deal with these enemies as soon as possible.

This is good.

Yuan Yuan thought so in his heart, and then he went to where Zhang Haohuan and the others were.

Zhang Haohuan is assigning tasks at the moment. According to their estimates, after wiping out the orc army, they estimate there will be a buffer period of about three to five days, during which they have several things that must be completed.

The first is to rearrange and strengthen the mine area. Judging from this war, the frontal defense is far from enough. Although it has the advantage of different weapons generations, on the one hand, there are too few people to control the weapons; The quality is not up to par, such as shooting indiscriminately while holding a firearm, or even firing into the air while driving. Third, there are insufficient weapons of mass destruction, especially when the orcs charge in groups, although long-range firearms can kill the charge. The orcs in front, but without fear of life and death, if there are enough stormtroopers, they can really charge into the front line with corpses on their backs. In this case, weapons of mass destruction are needed.

In addition to the problem of the frontal battle line, in the cliff area at the rear, because there are no troops stationed, extraordinary people can attack towards the cliff. Even the extraordinary people of legend and above can resist it for a long time, but the remaining low-level and mid-level extraordinary people are under fire. The cliff still suffered huge damage. The metal-infused rock walls peeled off layer by layer, and there were many depressions like craters standing on it. If these low-level and intermediate extraordinary beings were not in large numbers, I am afraid that the entire backside of the mine would have been destroyed. They will all be blown to pieces.

This is just the combat power of a swarm of millions of orcs.

Zhang Haohuan has read a lot of information about various races during his time in the forbidden human city. During the war between the ten thousand races, the minimum size of the orc legions that broke out in the war was in the millions, and the tens of millions or hundreds of millions of orc legions That's the mainstream.

After they eliminated this one millions of orcs, tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of orcs would attack next. By then, there would be tens of thousands of low-level and mid-level extraordinary beings. If they united to deal with this attack, If you attack a cliff area, you might actually be able to completely collapse it.

Therefore, they must solve the problem of long-range attacks. The number of artillery is far from insufficient, and the power of the artillery also needs to be greatly improved.

"The next battle will be more cruel and fierce." Zhang Haohuan said: "Gu can stop the legendary and above extraordinary ones for us, but the army must be resisted and solved by us. The most important points are: first of all, The problem of orc captives..."

"I'll take care of it." Yuan Yuan and a forbidden area engineer spoke at the same time.

Yuan looked at the forbidden engineer in surprise, and then Yuan planned to persuade the other party to hand over the captured orcs to him. He even planned to explain how cruelly he would treat these orcs, and keep them to make them regret being born in this world, but he did not want Zhang Haohuan He said directly: "Primitive... Well, let's leave this to the orcs, they are experts."

Yuan Yuan thought for a while and nodded. He decided to visit later to see how these experts cooked these orcs. Since they were experts, I believe their methods would be very cruel.

Then Zhang Haohuan continued: "Then these orc captives are not enough. Bei Mingkun, you can lead a troop and set off. You will be given three days to hunt down as many scattered orcs as possible around here. At the same time, you can also try to find wild ones." Are there any other human compatriots? We need manpower, the more the better."

Bei Mingkun accepted the order, and then Zhang Haohuan looked at Yuan Yuan and said: "Yuan Yuan, we need minerals, metals, etc., in large quantities. I will also assign you some manpower, and the human technical personnel in the forbidden area will also be provided to you. What do you think about this place? They should be more familiar with it than us. Lead them to search for minerals and metals. After finding some, send people back. Time is running out, so you need to speed up."

Yuan Yuan also obeyed the order, and then Zhang Haohuan looked at the five footmen, and these five footmen all had expressions of expectation on their faces. The little steel cannon even shouted directly: "Where are we? Where are we? Tell me what city you want to attack and what fortress you want to destroy, just tell me."

Zhang Haohuan hesitated for a moment and then said: "I want you to cultivate immortality."

"Okay, repair...what?" Xiaogangpao asked blankly.

"Cultivation, to be precise, is mining." Zhang Haohuan pointed to the ground and said: "The reason why I chose this place in the first place is because this mine is a gathering place for rich ore veins. The mine is full of various minerals, and there are also a large number of minerals underground. The minerals will be handed over to you as coolies after the orcs have finished cooking them, and then you will be responsible for leading the orcs to start mining. During this period, you will need to cultivate immortality."

"...You have changed." Lao Yanguo smoked the butt of his cigarette and looked at Zhang Haohuan with sad eyes: "You were not so immoral before. You were such a serious and good young man back then. , it’s actually so funny now.”

"...Shut up!" Zhang Haohuan's face turned red, and he almost said in an angry tone: "Who do you think I am like this for? In short, use your hard-working spirit and work hard to cultivate immortality for me."

The five footmen immediately responded with a look like you are the boss and you have the final say. Then they muttered about how cultivating immortals is to nourish the liver, not to mine, and why I am covered with liver. , words like mining even if you don’t cultivate immortality.

Then Zhang Haohuan looked at another forbidden human engineer next to him and said: "Materials, minerals, metals, what else are needed? Is it still too late to upgrade production capacity? We only have three to five days at most to prepare, and then We are about to face being besieged by tens of millions of orcs."

The engineer nodded seriously and took out a stack of drawings from his arms. He spread them on the table in front of Zhang Haohuan and said: "We have discussed this before. First of all, we have a serious lack of energy, so we have to create The level of firearms and weapons in China is so low. To upgrade weapons, you must first have sufficient energy. Whether it is smelting metal or making high-strength alloys with qualified craftsmanship, the energy required is huge. Now we have obtained so much Magic items, enchanting materials, etc., this aspect can be solved, Commander, you see."

The engineer pointed to a drawing and said: "This is the internal structure of the mine. When mining for minerals, we can hollow out this place. Then we decided to make two small nuclear fission reactors here, with magical objects. With enchanted materials as the basis, two nuclear fission reactors can be started smoothly and have sufficient stability. Of course, although a nuclear fusion reactor can also be built, the deuterium and tritium required for a nuclear fusion reactor are insufficient. We There is no ocean here, so it would be very troublesome to extract it, but it would be more suitable than a nuclear fission reactor."

Zhang Haohuan looked at the drawings. His time in the forbidden human city was not in vain. He also learned a lot of scientific and technological knowledge. He could understand the numbers and logos on these drawings. After reading for a while, he asked: " Why a nuclear fission reactor? The output is still small after all, so why not just create a heavy nuclear fusion reactor? That way there would be no need for deuterium and tritium."

The engineer helplessly spread his hands and said: "There are not enough magical objects and enchanting materials, or there are enough top-grade minerals, such as Orihagen, or gems such as star stones. Without these, we cannot make them." Qualified high-strength basic materials cannot restrain the fusion force field of heavy nuclear fusion reactors."

Zhang Haohuan was silent.

When we were in the forbidden human city, these top-grade minerals were piled up for scientists to use. As for the energy, the Daoyun Reactor was directly activated, regardless of the lack of energy. Unexpectedly, here, they even built a heavy nuclear fusion reactor. If you don’t come out, you will really be in trouble...

"...Okay, two nuclear fission reactors, what are needed, and what level of weapons can they make?" Zhang Haohuan sighed.

The engineer said: "Radioactive elements, especially uranium ore, are found deep in the veins, but without relevant protective equipment, people will die when digging, so we didn't mention it before, but now that there are those orcs, then Commander, let them dig more."

Zhang Haohuan nodded, and the engineer took out a few more drawings and said: "With enough energy, the smelting technology can be upgraded first. We decided to make a super electromagnetic smelting furnace first, and then we can make several high-strength metals. Using these metals to make weapons, the first batch of weapons can be made in about five days."

"Five days?" Zhang Haohuan pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay, five days, what about the technological level of the weapons?"

The engineer said: "The weapon level should be able to reach the level of Gauss weapons, Gauss cannons, and super electromagnetic shields. No matter how high it is, it will not work unless the nuclear fission reactor is upgraded to a heavy nuclear fusion reactor, so that we can create an energy series Bring weapons."

"Gauss series weapons and super electromagnetic shields... are enough." Zhang Haohuan thought for a long time and then said: "Then let's implement it like this... What about the weapons of mass destruction I mentioned before?"

At this time, the engineer looked at the five footmen, who all looked back inexplicably. Then the engineer was about to speak, but Zhang Haohuan immediately waved his hand and said, "I understand, let's do it."

The engineer saluted with a military salute, turned around and left without saying much. On the contrary, the five footmen were confused and each shouted: "Wait a minute, what do you mean? What did you mean by that look just now?"

"

"That's right. I feel like you have bad intentions, don't you?"

"...I feel like I've become a guinea pig..."

"I always feel like you are thinking of something very rude."

Zhang Haohuan coughed and said: "In short, this is the next task. Everyone, please take action."

The five footmen left cursing first, then Yuan Yuan also left, then Bei Mingkun also left, and finally Zhang Haohuan was left alone.

"Do I have a mission?" Gu's voice suddenly rang.

Zhang Haohuan saw Gu Cong falling from the sky, and he said: "Yes, but it's not an attack, it's right here."

Gu frowned and said: "Are you telling me to be prepared for the extraordinary strong men who may attack the orcs? Well, this is also a problem. Except for me, no one else in this team can fight against the strong men above the legend."

"It's not just this." Zhang Haohuan said bluntly: "We can't defeat the lineage of ancient orcs."

Gu looked at Zhang Haohuan, who spread his hands and said: "Although I am very reluctant, this is the fact. We have too few people, and there is no time for us to develop. Take weapons as an example, this time we face

Millions of orcs swarm the army, and the weapons we use are gunpowder weapons. Although we can still make progress, such as making missiles, making nuclear weapons, and making nuclear fusion weapons, but

Seriously speaking, it is not very useful. Weapons at this level are about the same. As for nuclear missiles and the like, once the army is besieged, do we mean to blow ourselves up? If the bomb is farther away, any legend can intercept it out of thin air, so

We need to use special methods to use these weapons of mass destruction, so that we can avoid being intercepted by the opponent's high-level extraordinary."

Gu suddenly became interested and asked, "Oh? What special method?"

"...foot men are very good at this." Zhang Haohuan coughed sheepishly.

Then he changed the subject without waiting for Gu to ask: "In short, that's pretty much it. To fight against the orc army, we need to upgrade weapons. From conventional gunpowder weapons, the next stage is Gauss series weapons and super electromagnetic weapons.

, this is our next goal.

Weapons, and then there are energy weapons, and then there are next-generation magic weapons, but these are far away from us now, and we don’t need to consider them. In terms of Gaussian and electromagnetic series weapons, this mine fortress can at most resist

A swarm of tens of millions of orcs, no matter how many there are...it's really beyond human power."

Gu was silent for a while before saying: "Can the backlash be resisted? If it can be resisted, I can join the war. Then..."

"It's impossible." Zhang Haohuan shook his head and said, "At least it's impossible at this stage."

"Then it's better to leave." Gu Jiu continued: "Why continue to fight if you can't win? Abandon this mine, I will support you and go, we go to the three major alliances where Jun is, I don't believe these orcs dare to pursue them.

"

"If you don't leave, you can't leave." Zhang Haohuan's expression was extremely insistent. He looked at the ancient road and said: "We will stay here and fight the orcs. Either they will kill us all, or we will consume these orcs. This is you

It’s my mission here, so I can’t leave.”

"...Stupid!" Gu Qie growled, he looked at Zhang Haohuan coldly and said: "I really don't understand you people, every one of you is like this, every one of you is like this...Why are you all...

Are you so stupid!? If you can't win and you won't leave, then do you want to lead them all to death here?"

Zhang Haohuan started laughing. He looked at Gu Dao with a smile: "No, it's not a death wish. We still have one force that hasn't appeared yet."

"What is it?" Gu asked.

Zhang Haohuan pointed to Gu Dao: "Jun, this situation is what he wants, so he must have a backhand. What I am doing now, what I lead them to do, is to allow Jun to use his backhand smoothly.

, there is only one key now, and that is to let Jun know our existence, let him know the situation here, and let him use his backup plan, and this requires you."

Gu frowned and said, "But didn't you ask me to guard this place? If I go back and tell Jun all this, then who will guard this place?"

Zhang Haohuan waved his hand and said: "No need to run back, I have a way to contact Jun through the air, but..."

"Just what?"

Zhang Haohuan said hesitantly: "There must be a causal relationship, and the causal relationship between you and Jun is very deep, so the causal relationship must be extracted from you... so..."

"So?" Gu was even more confused.

Zhang Haohuan hesitated for a long time, and finally made up his mind: "Gu, starting from today..."

"Listen to me talking about cross talk every day!"

"……ha?"

"...Jokes are okay too!"

"……ha!?"

"It really doesn't work...how about the skit?" Zhang Haohuan said in a very embarrassed tone.
