Chapter 47: True Word Attempt
From rushing back to the Black Moon Tribe at noon to doing manual work non-stop in the afternoon, Zhou Xu had very few minutes of free time throughout the day.
The sun was setting, and people in the camp started to make fire and cook. While the tribe members were coming back, Zhou Xu stood up...
"Everyone, look here. I am planning to form a transport team of five people. Their main task is to carry some necessities from the Black Moon Camp to the Salt Lake Camp, and then carry the coal ore and salt from the Salt Lake Camp to the Black Moon Camp."
At the Black Moon Camp, under the watchful eyes of all the tribal members, Zhou Xu quickly explained the work content of the transport team.
"To do this, you need great physical strength. Those of you who have outstanding physical strength should step forward."
Apart from Zhou Chongshan and his friends, Zhou Xu currently has a clear impression of no more than five other people in his tribe.
There was no way, because their five-dimensional attributes were all two-star. Of course, he didn't mean to look down on two-stars. After all, he had basically figured out this star level. Two-star was the level of a normal person.
Any problems with normal?
The most common people in this world are ordinary people, and there are some ordinary people who think they are extraordinary.
It is estimated that more than 90% of humans are ordinary people of two stars, but it is these ordinary people who occupy the vast majority of humans and are an indispensable part of this ethnic group! However, although they are not looked down upon, they do lack recognition and memory points in Zhou Xu's eyes.
All the panels were two-star, so Zhou Xu had no way of distinguishing who among these people had better physical strength from their five-dimensional panels.
The only thing that can differentiate their abilities to a certain extent is their equally ordinary talents.
But the problem remained, there were too many people and it was hard for him to remember them all.
As for using the 'Eye of Insight' to look at all the people in the tribe again, the consumption is actually quite large. He really doesn't want to add unnecessary consumption to himself in this matter.
After all, according to the plan, he was going to study the ability of "skeleton control" later.
But now, there are only eleven or twelve people coming out, which is not a big problem.
【Eye of Insight】
Ordinary talents such as 'veteran collector' and 'strong will' obviously did not meet Zhou Xu's requirements.
"You, you, you, and you..."
After appropriate weighing and comparison, Zhou Xu quickly pointed out the five members of the transport team.
"There are only five of you. From today on, you will be responsible for this job."
In fact, in order to improve transportation efficiency, Zhou Xu actually thought about making a wooden cart or something.
But, in this era, how could the wheels and bearings be so easy to make?
Compared with making wooden carts, he is now more inclined to tame animals such as cattle and horses so that he can use these animals to help carry things.
But unfortunately, he hasn't met her yet.
Once he meets it, he might be able to turn around and start the animal husbandry era first.
Anyway, once things here are dealt with and the camp is stabilized, the reconnaissance team exploring outside can also begin to take action.
I hope I can gain something by then.
After assigning the members of the transport team, everyone had their meal and rested.
Zhou Xu, on the other hand, followed his original plan and studied the true meaning of his "skeleton control".
"Chongshan, gather all the collected skeletons here."
"yes!"
Zhou Chongshan acted quickly after receiving the order and called for help. After a few rounds of work, Zhou Xu's eyes were soon filled with skeletons.
They counted them and found there were thirty-nine bodies in total, which they had carried back in bits and pieces over the past few days.
Now it was getting dark, and Zhou Xu, who was sitting among the pile of skeletons, looked a bit weird.
The original members of the Black Moon Tribe had obviously gotten used to this situation, after all, their former leader had done the same thing.
As for the original members of the Salt Lake Tribe, they were not afraid because the person sitting there was Zhou Xu.
There was no intention of asking everyone to avoid the conversation, and ancient tones soon came out of Zhou Xu's mouth.
【Skeleton control! 】
In an instant, an invisible force spread out, causing green will-o'-the-wisp fire to light up in the empty eye sockets of the skeletons, and then they crawled up from the ground with a 'crackling' sound.
At that moment, looking at the skeletons standing around him, Zhou Xu felt a little surprised.
Because at this moment, all 39 skeletons on the scene stood up! He did want to see how many skeletons he could pull up, so he activated the mantra there, but he really didn't expect to be able to do this.
You know, when the other time traveler used "skeleton control" to launch the attack, the total number of skeletons was only about twenty.
Zhou Xu didn’t think that the other party could only find twenty skeletons at that time. It was likely that the other party could only control this number of skeletons.
But I easily exceeded this number.
At the same time, don't forget that he is pulling up thirty-nine skeletons now because there are only thirty-nine skeletons around, not because he can only pull up thirty-nine! In response to this situation, Zhou Xu thought about it for a while and got a clue.
[This is probably related to my 'Spirit' attribute which reached the three-star level from the beginning. After all, this is the only attribute that is particularly strong at the moment.]
[Following this line of thought, the strength of the 'spiritual' attribute will affect the ability of the mantra. This may be reflected in the number of times it is used, that is, consumption, or it may be reflected in the strength...]
With this idea in mind, Zhou Xu began to try to control these skeletons and form the attack formation he wanted, but these skeletons seemed unable to understand what he meant. Even a very simple formation seemed incomprehensible.
Later, Zhou Xu changed his thinking.
【Push forward! 】
This time, the skeletons finally understood and began to move forward.
【Attack that stone! 】
After receiving the order, the skeletons immediately waved their arms and attacked the stone continuously.
[I understand now. These skeletons can only understand very simple and basic commands. If the difficulty is increased a little bit...]
Thinking of this, Zhou Xu gave another order.
【Pick up that stone.】
As expected, the skeletons didn't know what to do and just stood there in a daze.
Let Zhou Xu basically understand them.
Simply put, just understand them as animals whose IQ is lower than that of dogs and are completely incapable of executing complex commands.
Under this premise, combined with his previous conjectures, a new idea came to his mind.
【Try it.】
As this thought flashed through his mind, the ancient tone rang out from Zhou Xu's mouth again...
[Controlled by Skeleton Soldiers! ]
