Dawn of a New Era

Hearing that it was just these natural spirits, Chen Shouyi was a little relieved.

These things are far from the "Holy Tree" threatened by the barbarian before his death, which makes him feel afraid.

What's more, if it was really that terrible, the barbarians would not have survived to this day.

It's kind of simple logic.

"There's nothing to be afraid of. The sun is rising now. We'll be back long before nightfall." Chen Shouyi comforted Shell girl.

Shell Girl nodded vigorously, and whispered nervously, "I'm not afraid."

"If you perform well, you will be rewarded at that time."

Shell Girl nodded vigorously again, forcing out a smile.

Apparently even her favorite gem could not dilute her uneasiness this time.

Chen Shouyi ignored her. Before leaving, he checked his equipment one last time.

Then, he listened carefully to the movement around him.

However, they found that the surrounding area was quite quiet. Apart from the sound of waves coming from the sea, it was difficult to hear even the usual chirping of insects and birds in the woods of the island.

No, not very little, but not at all!

The whole island was quiet and even quiet, exuding an ominous atmosphere, which made him a little terrified.

Glancing at the forest not far away, he immediately gave up the idea of ​​entering the forest.

Chen Shouyi exhaled lightly, then lowered his body and walked carefully along the shore.

However, he didn't have too much fear. Most of the plants on land are afraid of the high-salinity environment. From the fact that there is no plant growing on the beach here, it can be seen that this is also common in this world.

"As long as I stand on the beach, no matter how powerful the 'holy tree' that the barbarians call it is, it shouldn't be able to help me. At worst, I can run to the sea."

He walked forward cautiously, always alert to the movement around him.

Shell Girl was quite quiet all the way, without making any sound.

Chen Shouyi could feel her nervousness, and the body sitting on his shoulders was trembling slightly.

He secretly slandered: This little thing says it's not afraid, but in fact it has already turned into a dog.

...

After walking slowly for more than ten minutes, there was a meandering river flowing from the distant forest into the sea.

The river is about one meter wide, and it is crystal clear. Of course, it is not accurate to say that this width is a river. At best, it is just a stream.

He dipped his hand into the water, feeling the warmth of his tentacles.

Apparently this stream should come from a geothermal hot spring, he looked around and secretly noted the location.

Given the size of this small island, this is estimated to be the only source of fresh water here, and it is very possible to find the barbarians along this stream.

He moves on.

After walking for a few minutes, he suddenly fell to the ground.

Shell girl was so frightened that she grabbed his hair so tightly that she almost fell out.

But at this time, Chen Shouyi couldn't care less.

He glanced quickly and found a huge boulder not far in front of him. His heart moved, and he slowly crawled towards it.

After crawling for nearly two minutes, he finally came to the boulder, and he exhaled.

Then, under the cover of the boulder, he squatted down and watched carefully into the distance.

Ahead is a huge construction site.

A dozen or so barbarians are busily busy.

This should be a barbarian shipbuilding workshop.

Chen Shouyi could see three huge logs that had been divided, lined up one by one, and dried on the beach.

One of the logs was already being cut.

Obviously, as the barbarians lost a large number of canoes at once, they immediately stepped up their construction.

In the morning sun, these barbarians were sweating profusely, and their skin was tanned and shiny.

It was the same as what Chen Shouyi had guessed before.

The productivity level of this group of barbarians is still in the stone age,

The chiseling tool in his hand was just a hard stone whose edge was ground into a sharp edge, and he kept smashing at the log while holding it in his hand.

Chen Shouyi noticed that near the shipbuilding workshop, there was a road extending deep into the forest. Apparently it was from there that this huge log was rolled out to the sea.

He lowered his eyes and carefully observed the situation over there, not letting go of a single detail.

There were sixteen barbarians in all.

The side weapons are only self-defense spears and stones to be dug, and no short spears are carried.

He didn't see any particularly strong barbarians among them, most of them were thin and small, not even comparable to the ordinary barbarians who came to the island back then.

But think about it, in this kind of primitive tribe, strong warriors have a very high status, and obviously they would not come to dig canoes.

These people should be just ordinary barbarians.

However, Chen Shouyi did not act rashly.

The barbarian is more than 200 meters away from here, far beyond his best attack distance, and there is a flat river in front of him, without even a huge boulder to cover his body.

It is completely impossible to sneak attack on this kind of terrain, you can only head-on.

It has to be said that barbarians are intelligent creatures after all. Apart from their backward productivity, they are not lacking in wisdom. Moreover, this hunting way of life is more sensitive to the safety of the surrounding environment than humans living in peace.

The shipbuilding workshop was built here, obviously taking into account the safety factor.

Chen Shouyi took out an arrow from his quiver, and lightly played with the sharp arrow with his fingers, unable to make up his mind for a long time.

It was too risky to face sixteen barbarians at once.

It would be nice to have less!

Fortunately, the turning point came soon.

After waiting for about ten minutes, a barbarian seemed to be going to be lazy. He said something to his companion, then put down the stone in his hand, and soon three more barbarians followed with smiles.

The four talked and laughed, walking all the way here.

Chen Shouyi turned his back against the rock, breathing more and more gently. He slowly put the arrow on the bowstring, glanced at Shell girl, only to find that she had already covered her eyes like an ostrich.

Gradually, the voices of the barbarians became louder and louder.

"The sun is too strong, I will go into the water later, so I have to make a good bubble."

"Okay, I know where there is a ripe fruit tree, let's pick some."

...

When he caught sight of the barbarian from the corner of his eye, Chen Shouyi instantly stood up and shot an arrow at the same time.

The sharp arrow let out a sharp whistle, and immediately shot through the head of one of the barbarians.

Before the rest of the barbarians could react, he quickly shot another arrow, and another barbarian headshot.

At this time, the remaining two barbarians finally took action, holding spears, and rushed here.

This group of barbarians was walking towards the boulder, and the distance between the two was extremely close.

Only seven or eight meters apart.

Whether it was Chen Shouyi or the barbarians, this distance could be crossed in the blink of an eye.

It was too late to shoot again, so Chen Shouyi simply threw away his bow and drew out his long sword. With a slight sway of his body, he easily dodged the blackened spear tip of one of the barbarians soaked in blood. At the same time, he took a step forward, the long sword lightning Just flirt.

A cold light flashed!

The sharp blade quickly cut open the barbarian's neck, and blood spurted out.

Feeling the touch of the long sword piercing into the flesh, Chen Shouyi's face was calm. After he made a move with the sword, he didn't stop at all. Under the cover of this corpse that hadn't fallen down, his steps flashed like a ghost, and he turned to the last person behind.

At this time, the barbarian was still sweating profusely for the sudden disappearance of the enemy.

The next moment, he felt a chill in his neck, and all the strength in his body was passing away like a punctured balloon.

Chen Shouyi drew out his long sword, and with a slight shake, the blood on the tip of the sword flew away.

It wasn't until this moment that the two corpses fell one after the other.

"Yes...it's that evil one!"

The huge movement here was finally noticed by the barbarians in the distance, and everyone immediately showed fear, and a few timid barbarians even started to run away.

Chen Shouyi picked up his bow again and looked at the group of barbarians, with a coldness that didn't match his age on his youthful face.

This time, he used short-circuit weapons to fight directly against each other one-on-two, which greatly boosted his confidence.

At the same time, the low morale of the barbarians also made his original nervousness disappear quickly.

He moved instantly!

With a strong step on his toes, a cloud of sand kicked up behind him, and then he quickly ran towards the group of barbarians like an arrow leaving the string.
