Chapter 232 Skillful Craftsman

Feng Yun originally thought that the spherical object was a nest of small black bugs, which was natural, but after his careful observation, he found that it actually had traces of man-made. [full text reading]

It is made up of many small parts.

Those small holes like honeycombs were not dug out by the little black bugs at all, they were actually thin tubes that were just glued together.

This discovery shocked Fengyun.

The workmanship of the spherical insect nest is very fine, otherwise he wouldn't have failed to see that it was man-made.

In his impression, the ability of primitive people to make props is still relatively weak. It is difficult for them to make some more complicated props, and even if they are made, the craftsmanship will appear very rough.

Of course, this is not to say that primitive people's hands-on ability is really poor, mainly because of the limitations of manufacturing techniques and tools, which affect their performance.

If Fengyun hadn't seen such a delicate prop like a spherical insect nest with his own eyes, it would be hard to believe that it was made by primitive people.

However, Fengyun's attention was quickly shifted.

What he has to consider now is not the craft of making the insect nest, but what bad influence its appearance will bring to him, the Baicao Tribe and its reinforcements.

It shouldn't have a big impact on him, he can blow them to death with his breath, although the breath is infused with the power of totem, it can be seen that their survivability is not strong.

But if they were used to deal with the Baicao tribe and its reinforcements, it would be hard to say. He didn't know how poisonous those little black bugs were, and what kind of consequences would happen after being bitten by them.

Even so, he didn't want to let the little black bug bite him and test it out for himself.

He crawled out of the cave and dissected the nest in more detail, and in doing so, it shocked him even more.

It looks ordinary, but it contains various exquisite structures.

Like the thin wire attached to it. The place where it is tied at the end is very particular, and it is tied to a slender wooden bar.

As long as a relatively large force is applied to the thin wire, it will be pulled out of its original position.

But it is not as simple as a wooden bar used to tie thin threads,

It is a key component in controlling the nest.

Once it's dislocated. The various parts that make up the worm nest will be separated from each other, and then split, in other words, the little black worms locked inside will be released.

So far, the working principle of the worm nest has been very clear.

If he had opened the tent door directly. The thin wire connected to it will be pulled, and the pulling force brought by this pulling will act on the thin wooden strip in the insect nest through the thin wire.

Immediately afterwards, the thin wooden strips would break away from their original positions, causing the various parts that constituted the nest to lose control, separate, the outer shell would crack, and the little black worms would swarm out and pounce on him.

It happened suddenly, facing these poisonous insects that rushed over quickly. Even if he wasn't poisoned by them, he would definitely make quite a commotion, waking up the warriors of the Black Crow Tribe in the tent.

Fengyun had to admit that the design of this kind of alarm was indeed quite ingenious, far better than sending out an alarm directly.

While it has the function of alarm, it also has the ability to kill intruders.

If the intruder's ability is insufficient, or the reaction is not fast enough, before the people in the tent make a move, they are likely to be knocked down by those little black poisonous insects.

Fengyun studied the insect nest that he had cut into many small pieces with a knife, and felt that he had thoroughly figured out its structure. stood up.

He picked up some grass, wrapped up the remnants of the insect nest, dug a small hole, and buried it. After making a mark, he looked around again, memorized the terrain and landforms, and made sure he could find it, before rushing to the enemy's camp again.

He planned to come back and take out the insect nest that he chopped up.

He wanted to show them to the witch of the Baicao Tribe to see if she knew who made them.

if possible. He wants to win over its creator and use it for him.

After he traveled to the Yan Snake tribe, he copied many inventions and creations of later generations, but the performance of some of them was not satisfactory, at least there was a big gap with the performance in his memory.

The reason for this situation is largely due to the limitations of the primitive man's processing technology and tools, and it is difficult to perfectly replicate the inventions and creations in his memory.

If he could get help from the hive builder, these problems would be solved to a large extent, which would be of great help to both the Baicao tribe and himself.

In the process of copying inventions and creations, Fengyun discovered a situation, the increase of the power of the totem is not only related to the type of inventions and creations he copied, but also affected by a factor.

That is the degree of completion of his copied inventions and creations. Simply put, the closer his copied inventions and creations are to the original, the more totem power he will obtain, and vice versa.

The greatest increase in the power of the totem every time is when he copied the invention for the first time.

Later, although the power of the totem will also increase due to the increase in the number of inventions and creations produced, compared with the initial increase, it is no longer the same.

If there is a skilled craftsman who can make a worm nest to help him, he will be able to achieve a higher degree of completion when copying inventions and creations, and he can also obtain more totem power, which is very important to him.

In addition, due to the limitations of processing technology and tools, the people of the Yan Snake Tribe improved the inventions and creations made by Fengyun, and the creation of new inventions also had a great impact.

Many times, they have ideas in vain, but they cannot turn their ideas into reality.

Although Fengyun still doesn't know what benefits the aborigines of the Yan Snake Tribe will bring him if they succeed, his intuition tells him that whether they can complete some inventions independently will have a great impact on him.

Although there are many inventions and creations in later generations, his memory is limited after all, and even fewer can know their structures and principles, so even if he keeps copying them, his inventory will eventually be exhausted one day.

Without inventory, it is obviously unrealistic for him to invent and create by himself.

He has some understanding of himself. He is definitely not a research-oriented talent. It is very difficult or even impossible for him to come up with brand-new inventions and creations alone.

If the situation reached this point, he would lose his golden finger to easily improve the power of the totem. To improve his strength, he had to practice assiduously and accumulate time, just like the aborigines. This was not what he wanted to see.

However, if because of his guidance and help, the aborigines of the Yan Snake tribe had the ability to invent and create independently, the situation would be completely different.

In addition to their own new inventions and creations, they can also help him to produce some inventions and creations in his memory that he knows but does not know why.

The most difficult thing about inventing something is often not knowing its principle, but how to present it.

From this point of view, he undoubtedly has a very huge advantage.

Even if he didn't know the specific structure of some of the objects he remembered before time travel, he still knew what they looked like.

He also knows a little about how they work and what kind of effect they can produce.

With these, he can provide direction for his own research as well as that of Aboriginal peoples.

Of course, relying on the efforts of himself and the aboriginal people, it is also possible to get them out, but if there is a skilled craftsman to assist him, the efficiency will be greatly improved.

At some point in the future, these things will most likely become the catalyst and source of his totem power improvement, continuously providing motivation and support for his continuous improvement of strength.

The current him is no longer the one he was when he first traveled to the Yan Snake Tribe, and he has a better understanding of this magical world.

He knew that the Snake God Mountain and even Lei Ze were only a very small part of this world, and the world outside was extremely vast.

The infinite world also represents a great attraction.

If he was allowed to stay in Zheshen Mountain and Lei Ze for the rest of his life, he would definitely not be reconciled, at least he would go out for a walk to experience the magic of this world.

The outside world is wonderful, and the outside world is also very dangerous.

Therefore, if his goal really is to go out to meet the world instead of dying, he must find a way to ensure his own safety, and the most critical point is that he must have strong strength.

Along the way, Fengyun has already discovered that the further you go outside, the more dangerous it will be.

If measured by the standards of the game, Snake God Mountain and Yan Snake Tribe are Novice Village, Lei Ze is a low-level monster fighting area adjacent to Novice Village, and the wider world outside is an unknown area that he has not yet explored.

Fengyun shook his head, clearing away the distracting thoughts in his mind.

His main purpose now is to sneak into the enemy's camp to kill people, weaken the enemy's strength, and thus reduce the pressure on the Baicao tribe and its reinforcements.

As for whether we can find skilled craftsmen who can make insect nests, that is a matter for the future.

Fengyun almost returned the same way, and soon came to the door of the tent again.

He listened carefully, and found that the breathing of the black crow tribe warrior inside was still very peaceful. Obviously, his actions of entering the tribe and taking away the insect nest did not alarm them.

He pulled out the knife, put it on the edge of the tent door, gently opened a narrow gap, and slipped in sideways.

After standing still, Fengyun looked at the enemy sleeping on the animal skin.

His eyes slowly slid across their faces, and at the same time, his eyes began to turn cold.

The fingers holding the knife tightened, and he walked towards them, but when he was about two or three steps away from them, he stopped and put his hand into the bag, as if to look out take something. (To be continued.)
