Chapter 56 Indigenous Peoples
When they went down, Wang Hao had already gathered everyone together and announced that there were several more evolutions.
He told me about today's task of going out to cut down trees.
Afterwards, he called Li Hao and Li Wen aside and handed them two evolution stones.
Milky white with a few streaks of pale blue,
Wang Hao said, "These are the evolution stones from yesterday's Mantis King and Mutant Rat King, distributed to you."
Yesterday, Li Wen and Li Hao gave him the evolution stones for the Mantis King and the Mutant Rat King as soon as they returned.
He knew that this was just a formality, a way for the two of them to give him face.
The supplies are handed over to the collective, and after discussion, the collective redistributes them.
"Okay." Li Hao and Li Wen smiled and accepted the evolution stone.
They gave the evolution stones to Wang Hao, naturally intending to test him and see if he knew how to distribute them.
If it doesn't meet their expectations, then they'll just eat it directly from now on.
If the money is handed over before being distributed, at least there won't be any gossip.
After all, it's a residential community, a collective one, so on the surface, we still follow the rules.
This will make things easier in the future.
The two of them ate the evolution stone directly, their blood and energy surged, and white mist immediately appeared above their heads.
Exhilarating.
Li Hao looked around and saw that many people were going out today. Apart from the elderly, the weak, the sick and the disabled, most of the men and women in the community were going out together.
There were approximately over a thousand people.
That's why so many people choose to go abroad.
Firstly, it's naturally due to Li Hao and Li Wen's formidable strength, and the fact that the mutated creatures within a kilometer radius have already been wiped out.
Another reason is that Wang Hao implemented a points system, where employees could earn more points.
Basically, it means you can go out and earn money.
Now, apart from Li Hao, Li Wen, and other evolved beings, most people in the community have run out of food and are all empty-handed.
To obtain more food and resources, one naturally needs to exchange physical strength.
The group left the residential area.
As Li Hao walked, he glanced at the dozens of evolved individuals following behind him.
He glanced at the evolution list in his hand again.
"Wang Yutong: Thigh mutation".
"Zhang Xinyi: Evolved into bee wings."
"Liu Jiaqi: Arm abnormality."
Yang Muchen: His body turned to iron and wood.
Zhang Yuze: ………
Yang Bowen: ………
Li Hao and Li Wen led the way with five girls at the front.
Dozens of evolved beings followed behind.
Behind them was a large group of over a thousand people.
Many people in the group were out for the first time, and their eyes were full of curiosity.
The crowd was noisy.
Li Hao and Li Wen were surrounded by five girls, including Chen Sihan and Su Tiantian, a veritable harem of beauties.
Team members and residents glanced at them from time to time.
Knowing is about doing things.
You'd think they were on vacation.
This life is so wonderful.
It made them very envious.
Someone looked up and saw three winged evolved beings flying in the sky.
They are Liu Xueqin, who has butterfly wings.
Liu Xueqin is now able to freely control the shedding of wing powder and can fly openly and legitimately.
She is now slim and flies very gracefully.
Then there's Zhou Mengting, who has wasp wings; her flight speed is significantly faster and she's more agile than Liu Xueqin's.
The last girl was Zhang Xinyi, who had just evolved bee wings.
Zhou Mengting's wings are more lively than those of a wasp.
The three people flew in the air, heading in three different directions.
Following Li Hao's orders, conduct a patrol of the surrounding area.
They each carried two modified petrol bombs, which, once pressed and thrown away, would explode within three seconds.
Li Hao also looked up at the three flying figures in the sky.
They circled above the crowd once, then slowly dispersed.
He then took out another piece of paper, on which was written the length of the river, nearly one hundred meters.
It also specified the approximate number of trees to be felled and the location for transport.
Li Wen, who was standing nearby, peeked over and asked, "Brother, which trees are you planning to cut down?"
Li Hao pointed to the forest ahead, to the lower part, and said, "Just cut down those trees that are about two meters in diameter and a little over a hundred meters long."
Such a tree is still within its weight-bearing capacity.
The length is just right.
It must be said that the trees here are really big; they are all over 200 meters tall and five or six meters in diameter.
A structure that is over 100 meters long and about 2 meters in diameter is not considered particularly tall; it is merely average.
As for kiwi trees like the cycad, they are even shorter.
Even shorter than the fruit trees are the shrubs and weeds.
"Wow, this tree is huge!" a resident exclaimed, looking up at the towering trees around them.
It felt like we had suddenly entered a tropical rainforest.
Some people say, "You could build a house up there."
"If you dig open the tree trunk, you'll find little houses inside."
"This is the tree I've always dreamed of."
"I really want to live up there."
"Come on, you'll be a corpse tomorrow if you stay here today."
"Hahahaha." This caused everyone to burst into laughter.
Li Hao levitated, flew high into the sky, observed the surrounding environment, and then stopped in front of a large tree.
"Just cut down the trees here; the trees here are all over a hundred meters tall."
Li Hao said to the fifty evolved beings, "Each of you can randomly select fifty people, and form a group of fifty to cut down a large tree."
"yes!"
The fifty men, each carrying their own weapons, scattered and ran off to form teams.
Not every resident has a weapon.
The most common type of weapon was the kitchen knife.
After all, every household has a kitchen knife.
Even if every household has a kitchen knife, there is only one.
A household has at least one person and at most three or four people, which is simply not enough to go around.
The second most common item was a saw.
The third most common item is the machete.
Fourth is the axe.
Some people were carrying axes and machetes they had made from ironwood that morning.
Most people don't have the tools.
For those without tools, the natural method is to take turns cutting down trees.
The fifty evolution squad leaders were all vying for the weapons.
The clever squad leader had already booked his own members while on the way.
"Wang Yi's squad, assemble!"
Squad leader Wang Yi waved his hand and shouted, and immediately thirty members swarmed around him.
This Wang Yi is Liu Xueqin's husband.
"Niu Dazhuang's squad, assemble!" Niu Dazhuang shouted.
"Zhang Jingfeng's squad, assemble!" Zhang Jingfeng shouted back.
The team members quickly assembled.
Once assembled, each small team led its members to the front of a large tree.
Li Hao glanced at the small teams that were already felling giant trees and nodded.
Efficiency is what we need.
"Brother, I'm going to chop some too."
Li Wen called out and led Su Tiantian and Su Xiao to a large tree nearby.
Li Hao was accompanied by Chen Sihan, Zhang Xiaonan, and Zhao Xiaoyu.
Li Hao glanced at Zhang Xiaonan, somewhat puzzled as to why she hadn't gone to Li Wen's place with Su Tiantian.
But then I understood.
The other party chose him.
A slight smile involuntarily appeared at the corners of his mouth.
"Give me the axe," Li Hao shouted to Zhang Xiaonan.
"oh oh."
Zhang Xiaonan quickly handed over the black axe.
Li Hao took the axe.
The axe head and handle are integrated.
This is an ironwood axe that was just made from ironwood this morning.
It feels heavy in your hand.
It is heavier than a regular axe.
However, due to time constraints, the production was rather rough.
The axe blade is pitted and quite thick.
Li Hao used his Damascus steel knife to make repairs.
"Clang, clang, clang!" The Damascus steel knife struck the ironwood axe, sparks flying.
Layers of black sawdust were shaved off.
The axe blade is getting thinner and thinner.
"Hmm, that's about right."
Once the ground was mostly cleared, Li Hao swung his axe with satisfaction.
This axe was clearly larger and heavier than the others.
It was clearly Wang Hao who made this arrangement specifically for him.
It should weigh around ten pounds.
Li Hao weighed it in.
This weight is very light for him, and it works quite well.
He came to a large tree with a diameter of two meters. The bark of the tree was like dragon scales, piled up layer by layer.
"Thump!" He swung the axe forcefully and chopped down.
The tree shook.
The axe was embedded deep into the giant tree.
Almost all of them were submerged.
He pulled the axe out with a gentle tug.
"Thump!"
He then chopped hard at the same spot again.
Wood chips flew everywhere.
The tree trunk was cut open with a huge gap.
"Knock knock knock!"
Li Hao swung his axe, his muscles bulging, and chopped hard at the tree trunk with each strike.
"Click~"
The tree made a loud noise, then swayed and slowly fell to the ground.
Startled, Chen Sihan, Zhang Xiaonan, and Zhao Xiaoyu ran away immediately.
"boom!"
A large tree crashed to the ground, causing a great earthquake.
The commotion drew everyone's attention.
"Captain Li Hao is still the fastest."
"Yes, one of them is worth dozens of ours."
"That's amazing."
Everyone gasped in amazement.
Then he buried himself in his work again.
Today's logging is all tied to points; the more land you cut down, the more points you get.
"Wow, Brother Li Hao, you're amazing! Have some water."
Chen Sihan ran over happily, took out a bottle of water from her bag, and handed it to her with a smile.
Li Hao smiled; he was neither tired nor thirsty.
For him, cutting down such a tree was a piece of cake.
But seeing how enthusiastic Chen Sihan was, he still took the water, unscrewed the cap, and drank a few sips.
He then tossed her the bottled water.
the other side.
A tribe in the mountains and forests.
A three-meter-tall, silver-white Behemoth knelt before a two-meter-tall, yellow Behemoth.
"Chief, we've discovered the local inhabitants!"
"What is it?"
"It's human."
The Golden Behemoth stood up abruptly, slightly excited. "They're humans! Great! These are slaves delivered right to our door!" He turned and asked, "How many of them are there?"
The silver-white Behemoth replied, "There should be one or two thousand people living in a small town, where the houses are quite unique."
"Only one or two thousand people!" Golden Behemoth gasped for breath.
It is well known that humans are physically weak.
Their Behemoth race, even an ordinary Behemoth can fight against hundreds of human powerhouses.
This is definitely sending slaves to the Behemoths!
It's time to conquer this unknown world!
the other side.
Zhou Mengting descended from the sky in a panic, landing in front of Li Hao.
"Captain Li Hao! Something terrible has happened!"
"What happened?" Li Hao stopped chopping wood and asked her.
Zhou Mengting exclaimed in surprise, "I've discovered the indigenous people of this world!"
Her chest heaved as she gasped for breath.
"Native? What do they look like!" Li Hao's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly asked.
There were even indigenous people there.
They don't know whether this is good or bad for them.
Zhou Mengting swallowed hard and answered nervously, "Like gorillas, they are very tall. The average ones are two meters tall, and the larger ones are three, four, or even five meters tall!"
I haven't seen anything taller than five meters yet.
"There's a whole area over there," she said, pointing to the other side of the mountain.
Upon seeing the indigenous people, she was startled, fearing she would be discovered, and hurriedly ran over to report.
Even at that moment, I still felt my heart pounding.
