Throne of Vientiane Civilization

Seeing the back of their leader rushing up with the 'Fire Spear', the panting Feique completely collapsed to the ground.

The brothers in the tribe before suddenly rushed to the periphery with the leader's order to confirm the situation. After knowing that the big spider had rushed out, he immediately followed the order and ran to the tribe to get fire.

With two torches, he hurried to catch up, and finally let him catch up.

The tribe member who was caught by the spider silk at that time was obviously about to lose his grip. Zhou Xu didn't have time to think about it, so he threw one of the torches at him.

As a long-handled weapon, the bone spear itself has the advantage of attack distance. Under this premise, a torch is tied to the front end of the bone spear, and the attack distance becomes longer, which adds a lot of confidence to Zhou Xu.

After rushing up, he immediately waved the fire spear in his hand.

This big spider is really afraid of fire, just sensed the temperature, and started to back away in a hurry.

Seizing the opportunity, Zhou Xu directly used a fire spear to burn off the spider thread that was holding onto his tribe member, and then used fire to hit the big spider with a fierce poke.

The big spider was afraid of fire, so it didn't dare to accept the move. At this moment, it completely obeyed its own biological instinct, turned around with its huge body, and ran away directly.

The speed was so fast that they immediately distanced themselves from them, and Zhou Xu couldn't catch up even if he wanted to.

During this period, Dashan was obviously unwilling to let the big spider run away, and after two bursts of charging, he threw the stone ax in his hand violently.

The power of the stone ax is obviously not comparable to that of stone bullets.

The moment it hit the main body of the big spider, Zhou Xu clearly saw that a string of turquoise liquid splashed out!

This scene lifted his spirits.

This proved that the big spider's defense was not as strong as he expected.

"Okay, stop chasing."

Seeing the mountain that he wanted to chase again, Zhou Xu hurriedly stopped. The speed of the big spider was higher than them, and once they ran, they couldn't catch up at all.

And although the big spider is afraid of fire, it is not afraid of them.

Holding a torch, he was able to scare it away, but it was difficult to kill it. The reason is still the same, that is, the opponent's speed is too fast and at the same time too flexible.

And just as Zhou Xu was thinking this way, the tribe member who escaped from death rushed to him and knelt down to him.

Apart from this, he couldn't think of any other way to express his gratitude.

Zhou Xu, who came back to his senses, was taken aback by this situation, and then subconsciously glanced at the other people around him.

At this moment, he clearly found that, including Dashan, the eyes of the surrounding tribe members looking at him had changed significantly.

If at the beginning, the tribe members only worshiped him as a 'god', then there is already something called 'respect' in their eyes now.

At that time, the figure of Zhou Xu rushing towards the spider monster with the 'Fire Spear' and forcing it back was already deeply imprinted in their hearts.

To be honest, none of them dared to rush up to such a monster.

Even Dashan was encouraged by Zhou Xu, and only then did he take subsequent actions.

"Okay, let's send someone to keep watching that big spider. I'm afraid we need to change our plan."

As Zhou Xu spoke, he helped up the tribe member who was kneeling on the ground.

"Let's go back to the camp first."

In his original plan, the sling as a long-range weapon undoubtedly played a pivotal role, but now it was obvious that the stone bullets were not powerful enough.

This time, they came back earlier than usual, and the butterflies and others who stayed in the tribe inevitably felt a little strange.

Due to the experience just now, the team members who were still in shock at the moment took the opportunity to talk, and what they said one by one was really so vivid.

Invisibly, everyone who stayed in the tribe surrounded them, which made them speak more vigorously.

Speaking of excitement, they even began to brag about their leader's bravery, which made the tribe members look at Zhou Xu in different ways.

As the protagonist of all this, Zhou Xu, who was sitting by the fire at this moment, had no time to care about what they were talking about, and was completely lost in thought.

The first question on his mind right now is...

[Why did the big spider come out? 】

Just like what he analyzed earlier, spiders prey mainly on the sidelines, so why did the big spider suddenly come out?

With this doubt in mind, after some deep thinking, Zhou Xu thought of a possibility.

And that's because of the food!

To put it bluntly, this black forest is a piece of shitty place, where food resources are scarce.

As far as he knew so far, apart from the rats and some bugs that ate everything and had a tenacious ability to survive, the only animals that lived here were the big spiders that ate rats and bugs!

Under this premise, as outsiders, after they settled here, they also ate bugs and mice, and showed good predation efficiency.

To put it simply, in a limited space, they robbed each other of food resources and directly became competitors in this ecological chain.

The decrease in food and the increase in the difficulty of hunting forced the big spiders who had been staying in the depths of the black forest, laying out large arrays of spider webs and waiting for rabbits, and who didn't like to wander around, to start attacking proactively.

In any case, around this black forest, an extreme situation of "with you without me, with me without you" has formed between them and the big spider.

[If you want to deal with that big spider, you must first find a way to restrain it from digging traps at that speed? 】

This was the first thought that flashed through Zhou Xu's mind.

[No, no, that big spider is so big, how many deep traps must be dug before it can fall into it? How can we have that strength now? And with those eight spider legs, it can easily crawl out of potholes and traps. 】

As a modern person, Zhou Xu's thinking is still very open. He can actually think of many ways.

However, considering the current situation and the conditions at hand, there are really not many ways that can be implemented smoothly, which made him fall into a period of hard thinking.

During this process, their hunting activities must naturally continue. After all, once the hunting stops, they will have no food.

Under this premise, in order to ensure the safety of the tribe members, each team will now send a team member to carry the fire source with him, and each team member will bring a torch.

The weapons in his hands have also been replaced by bone spears from the original stone axes.

Once you encounter a big spider, immediately tie it into a 'fire spear' to force the opponent back!

However, during the period, the attack frequency of the giant spiders became more and more frequent. Even with the 'Fire Spear' close by, they could not be 100% sure of their safety.

The invisible pressure forced Zhou Xu to start his plan ahead of schedule a week later!
