Chapter 49 This question is beyond the scope
After a simple one-on-one test, Zhou Xu began to make various attempts.
For example, let the skeleton soldiers use slingshots! According to Zhou Xu's thinking, they would become skeleton slingshot soldiers in a matter of minutes.
But reality soon made him realize that it was best not to think too highly of things.
Let the skeleton soldiers hold the slings, no problem, they can hold them! Let the skeleton soldiers hold the stone bullets, no problem, they can hold them too! Slings in one hand, stone bullets in the other, all fine! But let the skeleton soldiers put the stone bullets on the slings and spin them around to throw them! Saury, I can't do it!
The skeleton soldier said that this question was beyond the scope of the syllabus.
At the same time, it also allowed Zhou Xu to completely confirm that these skeleton soldiers were classified as melee soldiers.
As for whether he could unlock ranged troops, he estimated that he would need more mantras, such as "Skeleton Slingers".
And with the mantra characters he currently had in his hand, he obviously couldn't put it together smoothly.
During this period, Zhou Xu certainly also tried various combinations of mantras on hand, and in the process, he vaguely discovered that there should be some kind of rules, or rationality, in the combination of these mantra characters.
Simply put, mantras that are randomly or forcibly combined will not be effective.
Anyway, apart from the most reasonable combination of 'Skeleton Soldier Control', he tried a lot of other messy combinations, but unfortunately, there was no effect.
By the way, this attempt will also consume energy.
Therefore, Zhou Xu stopped at the right time. He had things to do every day and couldn't exhaust himself.
As the sky gradually darkened, Zhou Xu, who had already returned to the tent and lay down, began to think about some things before going to bed as usual.
[If the mantra is driven by a special power in my body, does that mean I can actually practice? But the question now is, how can I practice? ]
Zhou Xu really had no idea what to do about this matter.
He could only feel the power being drawn out of his body when he was casting the mantra, but at other times he had no idea what was going on, which really made him worried.
After all, only by finding a way to practice can he obtain a faster path to improvement and make his mantra stronger.
Of course, we cannot rule out the possibility that this power cannot be cultivated.
Or to put it more simply and crudely, the power of mantra will continue to grow stronger in the process of constant consumption and recovery.
This is also a possibility.
In fact, compared to the beginning, Zhou Xu felt that the power of mantra in his body had indeed become stronger.
[Perhaps the improvement of mantra power is really just a process of continuous consumption and recovery, just like physical exercise, which is a cycle of exercise and recovery. Mantra power is also improved through continuous practice every day.]
[But even so, I can't exhaust my strength to train every day. After all, once the strength is exhausted, it cannot be quickly recovered in a short period of time. At the same time, in this world, I also have to reserve strength for the battle that may break out at any time.]
[On weekdays, it is best to maintain about 30% of your energy consumption, ensuring that you have 70% of your strength at all times to deal with various emergencies. ]
As he thought about it, the fatigue accumulated throughout the day gradually overwhelmed his consciousness, and Zhou Xu fell into a deep sleep accompanied by snoring.
The next morning, Zhou Xu, who was lying in the tent, slowly opened his eyes.
During this period of time, he has developed a good biological clock. Even if he is not fully asleep yet, he will basically wake up during this period of time.
After all, in this era, in order to survive better, he doesn't have time to stay in bed.
But he didn’t know if it was because he consumed too much power of the mantra after studying so much yesterday, but now his head felt a little heavy.
After walking out of the tent and taking some breaths of fresh air, I felt a little more refreshed.
Just like when he was in the Salt Lake Tribe, when he arrived at the camp, he immediately gave instructions for the work of each team and department.
So every morning, he didn't need to repeat the arrangements, and the tribal members would naturally start their new day's work, saving him a lot of trouble.
There is only a hunting team, and they need to wait for him to set out together today.
After all, starting today, the hunting mode of the hunting team will also change. With the activation of the lasso trap, the requirement for the number of people will begin to decrease further.
Zhou Xu estimated that the three people should be able to cover the area where the hares were active easily.
With the freed up manpower, Zhou Xu naturally began to prepare to form an exploration team and started to explore outward step by step.
The current focus is to quickly find some crops, especially crops that can be used as staple food, so that he can smoothly enter the farming era and further solve the food problem.
"Jinghong, the task of leading the exploration team is now handed over to you."
Ye Jinghong's current command star level has also been upgraded from one star to two stars. It is very simple to upgrade from one to two stars.
Under this premise, his command limit is four stars after all, so Zhou Xu doesn't mind giving him more training opportunities to help him grow.
More importantly, Ye Jinghong's talent as an "execution expert" can also be effective in this matter and improve their exploration efficiency.
And this is exactly what Zhou Xu needs right now.
After receiving the order, Ye Jinghong immediately showed his decisive side. He gathered the people, took the map and set off immediately.
On the first day, the exploration range was only near the Black Moon Camp, and we would be able to return before dark, so there was no need to worry too much.
The key point is that if the exploration team wants to go far enough, they will inevitably have to spend the night outside.
To do this, he had to solve the problem of carrying food and fresh water.
The food problem was actually easy to solve. As early as at the Salt Lake Camp, he had already taught Ye Jinghong and the others how to use salt to make cured meat.
Pickled food can be preserved for a longer time and is also easier to carry.
Carrying fresh water is relatively a more troublesome problem.
In their camp, they used clay pots to store a lot of water, but these things were heavy after all, and they would break easily if they were not careful, so they were not suitable for carrying in this situation.
Putting aside the pottery jar, the only solution Zhou Xu could think of at the moment was to sew a water bag with animal skins.
Animal skins, bone needles, and thin ropes made of tree bark are all available materials, and the production process is not complicated. Animal skins themselves are thick and elastic, and as long as they are tight enough, they can store water.
Zhuang Mengdie learned it quickly, and from then on, their department had one more task added to its work.
That’s right, the original manual team has now expanded into an equipment department as the number of work projects continues to increase.
Anyway, all the equipment currently needed in the tribe is produced by the equipment department.
And the position of minister naturally fell to Zhuang Mengdie.
After arranging the sewing of the animal hide water bags, Zhou Xu, who was staying in the Black Moon Camp, had no time to rest. He turned around and ran to the rabbit cage.
Although this rabbit cage has only been made for two days, there are already eight or nine wild rabbits in it.
The rabbit had limited intelligence and obviously didn't know how to deal with their hunting traps, so it was easily caught...
