Five Frozen Centuries - Chapter 120
Chapter 120: The First Camp
The savage’s stick was very powerful. The three of them heard a crack as soon as it hit Xiao Bin.
The savage’s wooden stick cracked, and so did Xiao Bin’s shoulder bone.
Xiao Bin was knocked down by the huge force. Before he fell to the ground, he roared, “F*ck him!”
After he shouted, the heart-wrenching pain gradually subsided. Xiao Bin was left speechless by the pain.
Lu Ren and Long Tao reacted and took out their bronze knives. However, before they could do anything, the savage turned around and ran seven to eight meters away. He then turned around and glared at them.
“What should we do?” Lu Ren asked anxiously.
Xiao Bin was in so much pain that he could not speak. His shoulders were swollen. The pain was excruciating!
The savages were still observing them and getting closer. Xiao Bin and the others were at a loss. They had never encountered such a situation before.
At that moment, a voice came from behind them. “These savages are observing you. If you try to escape, they will think that you are their prey and chase after you immediately. If you don’t try to escape, they will have one of them test you out. After testing your capabilities, they will decide whether to attack you or escape.”
Wei Huo had not expected savages to appear nearby. However, it was not unusual for a few savages to appear since dinosaurs already had. They were probably ancient creatures.
The savage who had smashed Xiao Bin’s shoulder stared at Wei Huo again. He seemed like he wanted to test Wei Huo, but as Wei Huo approached him, he rushed toward him.
Wei Huo threw a punch.
The savage’s head exploded.
Blood splattered everywhere and the ground was dyed red. The headless savage’s corpse fell to the ground.
The horrifying bloody scene terrified Xiao Bin and the others. The group of savages started shouting in fear and turned to run. However, Wei Huo said coldly, “Catch them. We’re short on manpower!”
Wei Sha and the rhinoceros rushed over. The savages’ attack was only a little over 10 points. Wei Sha and the rhinoceros were more than enough to deal with them.
Wei Huo turned around and checked Xiao Bin’s condition. He said, “It’s alright. My bones have cracked. I’ll give this scroll to you. Study it and cultivate.”
It was a Bronze Qi-Inducing Skill. Wei Huo had collected quite a few books, but this was indeed useful.
Wei Huo could already see the trio’s behavior. His first thought was that they were a little foolish. They had realized that they could not find advantageous terrain fast enough with savages attacking them, so they wanted to quickly counterattack. However, they did not have any actual combat experience.
His second thought was that the three of them were worth training. Their first reaction after being attacked was to avoid, observe, and counterattack. They had all reacted subconsciously, but Wei Huo thought that what they had done was reasonable.
It was not wrong to escape, but one had to make sure that the enemy could not catch up before one fled. There were too many savages, and they were fast. Trying to escape was unrealistic.
Of course, regardless of whether they escaped or not, they would die without Wei Huo. However, Wei Huo was confused. Why would he not shout for help?
At that moment, Wei Huo shouted, “Big Brother, save me!”
There was only one explanation. In times of crisis, their first reaction was not to ask for help but counterattack. They were too nervous and they had no time to think about anything else.
When Wei Huo handed them the scroll, the three of them were elated. Xiao Bin even forgot about the pain. “There are indeed scrolls. This is not a waste. It’s not a waste!”
He was particularly excited and he smiled happily, but his eyes were brimming with tears. No one knew what he was thinking.
“I’ve been waiting for this day for a long time!” Xiao Bin looked at the two of them. “I’ve been waiting for this day…”
He suddenly stopped talking because he had realized that Wei Huo was looking at him.
Xiao Bin gradually returned to normal. He then said in embarrassment, “Big Brother, I’m sorry I made you laugh. I’m just really happy.”
Wei Huo smiled. “I understand. I was as excited as you when I obtained this scroll.”
He was lying. He had not been that excited.
Wei Huo thought about it. This was probably a young man.
An hour later, Wei Sha and the rhinoceros brought back seven savages, three men and four women. The others might have been killed because they were too heavy-handed.
When the seven savages had been captured, three of them had gotten injured. One of the savages’ arms was fractured. It had probably been hit by the rhinoceros’ horn.
The cells were completed, and the seven savages were locked up. Wei Huo checked and realized that the recruitment difficulty was 98%.
However, there were brainwashing needles and pills in the mall. These two items would cause permanent damage to the brain, but they could reduce the difficulty of recruitment.
Wei Huo did not buy the two items or try to recruit savages himself. He asked Xiao Bin and the others to think of ways to recruit savages. They could do whatever they wanted, and Wei Huo would not interfere.
The reason Wei Huo would not interfere was because he had discovered Xiao Bin’s potential. As expected, based on Xiao Bin’s Hero Mode, he had potential, good mentality, strong execution, and leadership skills. Wei Huo thought that he was worth training, so he left everything to him so he could improve his skills.
Wei Huo handed Doran’s Shield over to Xiao Bin for the time being. At the same time, he asked the other two to bandage Xiao Bin’s wound while practicing their medical skills. After Wei Huo showed them, the two of them learned how to bandage wounds.
However, the duo’s wound-dressing skills were not good. After being bandaged, Xiao Bin finally got out of bed two to three hours later. His shoulder was already fixed. It had been just a fracture, so he had not needed to correct his bones. He’d only needed to rest and wait for his bones to recover.
Although he had gotten injured, Xiao Bin was the leader of the two men. He instructed the two of them to start working while he started to interact with the savages.
Wei Huo set up traps near the camp. This was a level-16 quest after all.
There was a total of over 10 traps in the basic construction. The easier traps to use were probably heavy traps, bamboo traps, pit traps, tree leaf traps, and other similar traps. The materials used for these traps were relatively simple. They were usually made of wood, bamboo, and stone.
There were also some more advanced traps, such as explosive traps, grenade traps, and poison arrow traps. The materials needed for them were more expensive. It was not wise to buy them from the mall.
However, these traps could at most guard one against savages. If one wanted to deal with large animals like dinosaurs, such traps would be useless. In order to deal with large dinosaurs, one had to unlock technology trees and build guns.
Wei Huo checked. His camp and technology tree options were both gray. It seemed like he had to build a real camp to unlock the technology tree.
At that moment, the mini loudspeaker of that world spoke again. “Congratulations on forming the First Camp (Lv1), Player Zhou Yi.”
