The strings they used were made from animal sinews, which greatly enhanced the power of their bows and arrows.
Although things were progressing positively overall, I still dared not slacken even a little.
I knew very well that I would likely be facing very dangerous things next.
Moreover, the number of savages here was limited, so I had to find a way to expand my team quickly.
"If that's the case, I suggest we seek out other tribes," Luo Yaqin said.
This island was vast, and there were more than one or two tribes.
Currently, this tribe had only a little over a hundred people, less than two hundred. If they were to face modern firearms later, some would surely die.
To maximize my combat power, expanding the numbers was an urgent matter.
With this thought, I immediately summoned the elders of the tribe. We could now communicate in simple terms.
After I explained my general idea to them, the elders seemed very excited.
As long as there were people, there would be war. They had been bullied by other tribes before.
Now, when someone told them they could help them fight back, the savages became more excited than ever.
They eagerly signed up, deciding to join me on the expedition.
This time, I did not intend to use the Shepherd's Power. I could experiment with the Shepherd's Power alone and gradually adapt, but these savages needed to fight quickly to adapt to their new weapons.
After making thorough preparations, I set off with over twenty savages.
Normally speaking, there was a tribe not too far from us.
That tribe had many people, and each of them was a warrior with powerful combat strength.
This time, I only brought twenty people. On one hand, it was to showcase our side's powerful combat strength, and on the other hand, I had to prepare for the worst.
If this expedition failed, it would only cost the loss of twenty people at most.
I thought it would be a relatively short distance, but I never expected it to take a full two days to get there!
When we arrived, I finally understood why we had been bullied!
The other party had too many people, and their scale was much larger.
At a glance, there were nearly five hundred people here, and many houses were built around them.
There were also some children, and they appeared to be living in peace and harmony.
Although I felt a pang of guilt, battle was necessary, regardless.
However, to be safe, I still asked a savage to go and negotiate with them.
The savage left all his equipment and walked into the other tribe.
Seeing an outsider arrive, the people of the tribe became nervous.
The elderly, children, and women quickly retreated into their homes, while the young and strong men all came out and surrounded the savage. httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět
I was unsure of their communication method; it felt like two people arguing.
They could understand my commands, but I had no idea what they were saying. In between, Luo Yaqin had to translate...
However, I had not brought her with me this time.
Soon, some kind of agreement seemed to be reached, though I didn't fully understand it. The savage I had sent out returned quickly.
He chattered to me for a long time, but I still didn't grasp what he was trying to say. After thinking for a moment, I decided to go over myself.
Upon seeing me arrive, the savages also surrounded me and spoke a lot, which I still didn't understand.
However, not long after, a well-built savage appeared before me, holding a bow and arrow.
"Are we going to compete?" I asked. I immediately realized I was talking nonsense, as they couldn't understand me.
The sturdy savage beckoned me to follow him. Without a word, I followed.
Soon, we arrived at an open space. About two hundred paces away from me, a coconut was placed.
The stout savage glanced at me with a hint of a mocking smile on his face, then drew his bowstring taut.
The arrow nocked on the string shot out instantly, hitting the coconut.
This was not a hundred paces, but two hundred!
It was already impressive for an ordinary bow and arrow to shoot that far, let alone to hit a coconut.
I smiled. In the past, this might have been difficult for me, but I was no longer who I used to be.
I picked up a stone the size of an egg from the ground and placed it on another coconut.
Then, I retreated to my original position.
The savages around me looked confused, unsure of what I intended to do.
However, I didn't say anything, and moved back another hundred paces.
Now I was about three hundred paces away from the coconut, and it was time for my performance!
