Desert, hills.
Lu Ming selected several team members and was starting his motorcycle.
Steel has built a huge fortress. The steel barrier is about five meters high. Soldiers can stand in the shooting position and shoot at any ferocious beast without restraint.
The fourth team returned without a correspondent for several days to deliver the news.
Lu Ming decided to take a look in person, but the cluster dispatcher did not dissuade him.
After all, being willing to sacrifice is highly valued by the corporate culture.
In the desert, the small iron flag signpost left by the fifth detachment disappeared dozens of kilometers away.
Ahead, there is a dense coniferous forest.
There is still thick snow in the forest.
The fifth team may have walked in a certain direction along the edge of the forest, and the road signs may have been cleared premeditated by some creature.
Lu Ming pondered for a while, then pointed in the direction of the woods, "I'll go inside and take a look myself. You guys can go back."
Several White Blood Cell members were also indifferent. After their superiors gave the order, they all turned around.
Lu Ming checked his personal equipment and entered the woods.
If he really encounters a danger that could kill him, then he will no longer set foot in this new continent in the short term.
Moreover, you know in advance what dangers you will face.
I don’t use any road signs to leave my mark.
Of course, every time we walked, we still carved marks on the trees with our daggers.
Gradually, we entered deeper and deeper into the dense forest.
……
One day and one night, Lu Ming moved forward at almost 10 kilometers per hour, which is about 300 kilometers. The dense forest still has no end in sight, and the strange thing is that except for some cold-resistant insects, there are no mammals here. .
The morning light in the forest is no different from the old world.
After running at a constant speed day and night, for the first time, Lu Ming felt physically tired. Lu Ming was about to find a place to rest, when suddenly he frowned slightly, then chose an extremely tall tree, climbed up, and picked up the Telescope, looking into the distance.
Although it is a coniferous forest, the dense trees block the view. You can vaguely see the trees gradually sparse a few miles ahead. At this time, two groups of black goat beasts are slowly approaching, each group There were probably hundreds of them, and the fierce beasts at the front of both sides had their long horns bent in the direction of the other side, approaching slowly.
Suddenly, they all rushed towards each other fiercely, pushing hard and biting, and the scene immediately became extremely brutal and bloody.
Gradually, the sheep on the left could no longer hold up, and the leader suddenly turned around and ran away, and the other sheep-headed beasts also retreated immediately.
The victorious sheep-headed beasts immediately chased after them, but their targets were the injured and the slowest ones, biting them to the ground, and then swarming up to eat them.
Lu Ming was startled again, as if he heard a whistle, and slowly turned the direction of the telescope.
In the telescope screen, an extremely tall man wrapped in animal skin suddenly appeared, with a head full of black hair almost hanging around his waist.
When he turned his head, Lu Ming's eyes narrowed slightly. He had a plush face, extremely thick hair on the temples, and prominent cheekbones and cheeks, just like a gorilla that had lost a lot of hair on its face.
Looking at him calling the sheep, it is obvious that he can command these sheep-headed beasts.
Looking at him, Lu Ming remembered some Neanderthal restoration pictures he had seen in his previous life, which looked very similar.
There is no doubt that this should also be the Homo sapiens branch of the evolution of ancient apes. According to the scientific species classification of its previous life, it belongs to the genus Hominidae. It is just that I don’t know whether there is reproductive isolation from humans like myself.
Because they are in an area isolated from both the Old and New Worlds, this species of sapiens has not been exterminated by modern humans.
And if they can barely exchange genes with humans like themselves, that is, if there is a chance of giving birth to the next generation, it means that in ancient times, tens of thousands of years ago, creatures on these continents were able to migrate. , everyone evolved from the same kind of ancient ape.
Lu Ming suddenly focused his eyes again, and his telescope was focused on the metal mace in the hands of this unknown Homo sapiens.
Obviously from the technological level, it has entered the Iron Age, not the stage of ancient Homo sapiens like Neanderthals.
Furthermore, being able to drive such a ferocious herd of sheep-headed beasts must be very powerful.
Looking at the sheep, they didn’t dare to eat when they saw him. After his gesture, they started to eat happily again.
Although he is tall, he is only about 2.23 meters tall. He is probably not the giant-like barbarian in the legends of the Northern Territory.
Lu Ming observed this guy's every move until he left Shi Shiran with the well-fed sheep.
Lu Ming thought for a while, slid down the treetops, and followed the paw prints of the sheep a few kilometers away.
Along the way, this guy led the sheep to fight several more times, and he always won.
In fact, all sheep have owners.
Moreover, I am afraid that all the mammals in this world will be eaten up, and the sheep will have to eat each other.
Every day when we fight, it’s almost like morning.
But a few days later, Lu Ming was surprised when he followed this guy back to his "tribe".
In the river plain area, sheep-headed beasts are raised in densely packed wooden stables. Are there hundreds of thousands of them?
There are probably tens of thousands of thatched huts scattered among them.
The forest-like grain fields stretching for hundreds of kilometers in the distance are even more shocking.
Tribal culture, so many people gather together, and where do these captive ferocious beasts get food?
……
Lu Ming stayed far away, observing the tribe.
After a few days, I discovered that the so-called grain field should be a natural tree plant with a large yield and red fruits that can be eaten by humans and goats.
On this day, the tribe cheered loudly, as if their hunting team had returned, and the sheep were pulled into the cart, covered with huge leaves.
Waiting for them to uncover the leaves, Lu Ming's hand holding the telescope tightened slightly.
The car was full of corpses, and judging from the clothes, they were obviously the corpses of White Blood Cell members, but they all looked frozen.
More than a dozen large vehicles and hundreds of corpses.
Look at the logo, he is a member of the fourth team.
The tribesmen cheered, thinking that they could have extra food, because they saw a child picking up the corpse and took a bite. However, they were scolded by their parents, so they stood aside aggrievedly.
Sure enough, a bonfire was lit that night and every household cooked meat.
Different from the cannibalistic emirates in Southeast Asia, this Homo sapiens group seems to particularly like the delicious taste of human flesh, as if it were a feast.
The meat of goat beasts is just ordinary food for them.
It turns out that most of the goats have been kept in captivity for a long time and will be slaughtered when they reach adulthood.
The goat beast is often taken out to kill and fight. It seems that it belongs to the fighting group and is treated specially.
After a few days of observation, I feel that their social structure is a patriarchal tribal culture. The men take turns going out to hunt, and those who stay at home gather food with the women and children and raise sheep-headed beasts.
But I don’t see anyone making iron.
And these sapiens have a lot of messy iron weapons, including long swords, spears and the like.
But the size is obviously smaller, and they don’t fit so well when used.
On this day, another hunting team came back, bringing dozens of living people, real humans.
It was like the clothes from the Middle Ages. There were men, women, old and young. Everyone was frightened. Women and children were crying. Even the grown men were crying and begging for mercy, but the language was incomprehensible.
They were all put into wooden cages. It seemed that because they had just added a meal the day before yesterday, these trophies would be raised and eaten in a few days.
Looking at this scene, Lu Ming realized that his original guess was correct. This new continent also had a human civilization like his own.
They are a bit like the Oonians of the Old World. Their noses are particularly high, their faces are narrow, their facial features are extremely delicate, and their skin color is fairer than the Oonians.
