Throne of Vientiane Civilization
Chapter 79 Centaur
"Fuck! Centaur?!"
Although Zhou Xu has long accepted the reality that this is a magical world, so far, all he has seen are human beings.
Even these skeletons were human beings before they were alive, right?
All of a sudden, such a group of special creatures that were obviously not human entered his field of vision, and the shock it brought to him was quite large.
【After all, what race do centaurs belong to? Orcs? No, this should be considered a mythical creature...]
Just as Zhou Xu was thinking this way, the centaurs, who were obviously hunting, had already maintained a galloping posture, and quickly bent their bows and set their arrows.
In the next second, an arrow shot out, the arrow pierced through the air, and directly sank into the hind legs of an antelope!
This arrow obviously had an impact that cannot be ignored on the running antelope, but the pressure of survival made it still run wildly all the way, not daring to stop at all.
For this situation, the centaurs who were chasing behind seemed to have expected it.
While continuing to maintain their running posture, they swiftly pulled out an arrow from behind themselves, bent their bows and set arrows again.
In the process of running wildly, the wound of the antelope was constantly being torn, and the blood that continued to overflow soon completely stained the entire hind leg of the antelope.
Gradually, the speed of the antelope began to slow down, unable to continue to keep a distance from the centaur hunters chasing behind.
Almost at the same time as they completely caught up, several centaurs holding spears stabbed out the spears in their hands one after another.
A few powerful stabs with momentum pierced through the antelope's skin and flesh easily, and forced the antelope to the ground.
At this moment, the antelope, already covered in blood, was still struggling to stand up from the ground, but the passage of life quickly deprived it of all vitality.
Looking at the antelope's body, one of the centaur moved swiftly, directly inserted a spear into the antelope's body, picked it up, and put it on his horse's back.
Zhou Xu was shocked to see the whole process.
It wasn't because of how ferocious and frightening the process of the centaur hunting the antelope was. In fact, he had already adapted to such scenes.
What really surprised Zhou Xu was the strength displayed by the centaurs!
[Centaurs have powerful mobility due to their special shape, so they can be said to be natural cavalry units. 】
[In addition, judging from the hunting performance just now, this centaur seems to have no shortcomings in speed, endurance, and even strength, and it is worthy of being a mythical creature. 】
Of course, if it was just cavalry, Zhou Xu could also choose to increase the length of the bone spear and use spearmen to contain the cavalry.
But the problem now is that they are not only cavalry, they also have bows and arrows!
The combination of bow and arrow and cavalry, isn't that the cavalry archer with the ability to ride and shoot? !
Good guy, in this era, just having a cavalry is already a bug, but it also has the combat capability of cavalry archers? Isn't this a proper dimensionality reduction blow?
Following this line of thought, facing this group of centaurs, Zhou Xu really didn't have a clue in his heart.
Right now, his first reaction is to avoid it. He doesn't want to have an armed conflict with this group of centaurs now. In a real fight, he feels that the chances of winning are not great.
Fortunately, the group of centaurs should just be chasing the herd of antelope.
After finishing the hunt, they walked in another direction with their prey on their backs, without any intention of approaching Zhou Xu and the others.
It is not a big problem to keep a safe distance. Of course, the more important reason is that if they give up this resource-rich land, the development of their tribe will be restrained.
At the same time, what is even more deadly is that with limited land and limited resources, even if they invest more time in development, it is difficult for them to make new breakthroughs.
Take the stone tools in front of him as an example. If he can't find copper and iron ore, how can he be promoted from the Stone Age to the Bronze Age, or even the Black Iron Age?
And to find these ores, he has to keep exploring to find the precious resources hidden in this world.
"Jinghong, have you found a suitable camping place nearby?"
According to Ye Jinghong's work efficiency, he must have checked the surrounding environment before returning to the Black Moon camp to report to him.
Facing Zhou Xu's question now, Ye Jinghong quickly said...
"There's a river near here."
Don't need to say much, just know this is enough.
In this era, the only rigid condition for setting up a camp in the wild is that there must be drinking fresh water nearby.
On this basis, other resources are additional.
Of course, the more additional resources the better, after all, who would dislike this?
Let Ye Jinghong lead the way, and the group quickly moved to the vicinity of the river.
Their arrival surprised some small animals who were drinking water by the river at that time, and they quickly rushed into the nearby grass and disappeared.
Zhou Xu and the others are not interested in chasing them, and at the same time, it is generally impossible to catch up in this situation.
"Everyone, take a break."
Zhou Xu hasn't made any plans to set up a camp here, but they really need to stop and rest for a while after traveling a long distance.
During this rest, Zhou Xu habitually observed the surrounding situation with the "eye of insight".
Under the blessing of the power of the mantra, his strong insight made him notice some little guys hiding in the grass, and then directly chose to ignore them.
These little guys have already noticed their arrival, Zhou Xu is sure that as long as they move a little, the bodies of these little animals will immediately burst out at an astonishing speed, and escape from their eyes.
It is unrealistic to catch them without preparation, without any advance deployment, and without corresponding hunting tools.
"It's almost time to rest, and it's time for us to set off."
Under the observation of the 'Eye of Insight', nothing special was found nearby.
Originally, if there were no centaurs before, then this area would still be considered a qualified camping place, but now...
In order to ensure the safety of their camp, Zhou Xu just wanted to stay away from the group of centaurs that might appear!
Even the farther the better.
Confirming the direction where the centaurs left at that time, after the rest of the crowd, along the river, Zhou Xu led the crowd in the opposite direction without hesitation.
Before the sun went down, I found a fairly suitable location...
"Well, here we are, and we will camp here!"
After going deep into the grassland, the surrounding environment is actually mostly monotonous, and Zhou Xu chose this location because there is a nice mound nearby.
After the camp is set up, this mound can be used as a watchtower to warn enemies who may approach their camp, and it can be regarded as an innate security facility.
