There is no clear boundary between the second-level and third-level areas. The main basis for division is the degree of danger, which is highly subjective and artificial. There is no clear demarcation line in a factual sense.
Chu Jungui stopped at the foot of a hillside. This was a relatively small high slope, with endless foothills and forests in the distance. There was a stream not far away, flowing out from the mountain, extending all the way into the distance, and finally gathered several other streams.
The stream then turned into a small river.
Our current location is almost 110 kilometers away from the last camp. In terms of hiking, it is considered to have spanned a quite remote area. Perhaps because it is close to the mountainous area, the temperature is much lower than that of the previous camp, and the wind is a bit stronger.
The biting cold even the leather clothes on my body could not withstand it.
"Just here." Chu Jungui placed his backpack on a small slope. It is 10 meters higher than the stream, so it has a good view. The forest means danger, but also means fuel, meat and furs. Needless to say, the stream
The cross-section of a cliff not far away is colorful. It looks like several mineral veins are compounded together and cut open with a knife, just like sliced tiramisu.
Chu Jungui was quite satisfied with this place. As for the degree of danger, he would not know until he was attacked. However, according to the dynasty's data, a place so close to the mountainous forest area was at least the transition zone between the second and third levels. Based on past experience
, there will be a fuzzy zone between the second and third level areas, which is also the first choice for explorers to advance to the camp. The dangers encountered in this zone are not that high, you can take a good rest and replenish, and it is also easy to explore the third level area.
Convenient and no need to waste precious energy on the road.
How to identify this middle ground is the watershed that distinguishes excellent explorers from ordinary explorers.
However, Chu Jungui didn't care whether the surrounding area was Level 2, Level 3, or an intermediate zone. Anyway, according to past records, it was not very dangerous for him.
Chu Jungui looked up at the sky. It would be dark in three hours. There were still many things to do before dark.
He opened his backpack and put all kinds of tools into categories. Then, two big trees roared down at the edge of the forest, and their branches fell automatically, turning into two logs in the blink of an eye.
Chu Jungui went over and carried the two logs, which together weighed two to three tons, and walked steadily back to the small highland. After installing the biological engine, Chu Jungui's strength directly increased by 20%. His original base number
It's high, and if it increases by 20%, it will be quite impressive.
During the transportation process, a neat grid began to appear on the surface of the logs. When they were placed on the ground at the camp, they were immediately dispersed into neat logs. The specifications were different, including thin boards and thick boards, lumber and firewood, and the processing was completed in one step.
.
Chu Jungui inserted a circle of sharpened wooden thorns around the small plateau to form the most basic defense. There is a gap of about half a meter between the wooden thorns, which can effectively reduce the speed of wild animals. In fact, whether it slows down or not does not matter.
It's no different when Chu Jun comes back, but why not if it's more convenient?
After arranging the peripheral defense, Chu Jungui picked up a shovel, shoveled out a small piece of flat land in the center of the high ground, picked up a wooden stake and inserted it into the ground, then picked up a 300 kilogram stone and smashed it down, and the wooden stake immediately sank into the ground.
Laying multiple wooden piles in this way and laying planks on top will create a very luxurious foundation. Chu Jungui then picked up four 2-meter-long pieces of wood and stood them at the four corners, then used the planks to build the roof and added the walls.
A small wooden house is completed.
The wooden house has windows on three sides and a door on one, so it can be said that air leaks from all sides. However, after a bonfire is lit in the center, the cold wind that can blow through the bones is weakened to the point that it can be ignored.
Looking at Kaitian who turned into a mist and was busy with his business, Chu Jungui suddenly thought about why he had such a strong body and microscopic control down to the muscle fiber level, but he was still almost frozen by the wind here.
To what extent? But Kaitian is not afraid at all.
Is it a unique setting of this world? Chu Jungui did think so at the beginning. To a certain extent, the real dream world is like a large-scale simulation game, but the details and realism can make even the top games.
A few streets away.
But such a huge world is just for a group of humans to play a survival game?
From the first day, Chu Jungui discovered that the physical rules in real dreams are quite rigorous and self-consistent. The strength of the material structure here is generally higher than that in the real world, which is reflected in higher melting points, higher energy density, and
A more solid structure. If you have an atomic microscope and an instrument that can measure protons and electrons, you will find that there are corresponding differences in the basic forces. Maybe in real dreams, the speed of light is different.
However, there are also many things here that violate physical knowledge, such as the wind that can blow through bones. Dr. Zero’s point of view on this is that we think it goes against common sense, maybe because common sense is wrong.
Compared with Kaitian, Chu Jungui suddenly thought of something. Is this world encouraging life to evolve in the direction of increasing cell strength? In biology, this is not evolution, but regression, right?
Even for Chu Jungui, comprehensively improving the strength of the cells inside the body is a huge project, and it is not necessary at all. He is not a Mist tribe, and does not need to disperse his body into a cellular state. And in a sense, the Mist tribe does not
Not a single life, but a collection of countless tiny lives.
Chu Jungui picked up a stone and smashed it open on the big pebbles he had brought. He saw the familiar yellow-green color inside and the copper content was very satisfying. Just looking at it from a piece of ore, this world is also extremely real.
, so real that it makes people doubtful.
Chu Jungui set up a thermal power furnace, filled it with several pieces of prepared charcoal, then lit the electric smelting furnace and continued processing metal.
It was completely dark. Thick clouds blocked the light reflected from the planet. It was almost impossible to see anything around. Only the firelight of the campfire in the wooden house and the light from the thermal power furnace added a touch of warmth to the camp.
Chu Jungui, who was observing the temperature of the electric smelting furnace, suddenly raised his head and felt a vague danger!
"Be careful!" Kaitian also warned.
A thin black shadow flew from the direction of the forest, drew an arc in the air, and shot towards Chu Jungui. Chu Jungui turned sideways and stepped aside, and then saw a long arrow stuck on the ground, with the arrow shaft still there.
Trembling slightly.
An arrow!
Chu Jungui leaned over and pulled out the arrow. It was an arrow nearly one meter long. The tip of the arrow was ground from animal bones. The shaft was made of high-quality wood and had no tail feathers. The forest was 300 meters away from the camp. It could be reached from
He could shoot a bone arrow from such a long distance and accurately point it at Chu Jungui. His opponent's archery skills were excellent.
"Explorers? Don't they all use muskets?" Kaitian said.
Chu Jungui frowned slightly, waved his hand to extinguish the bonfire, hid in the wooden house, and picked up the short bow. The force of the bone arrow shot was not enough to penetrate the wooden board. The wooden house with walls made of thick boards had quite good defense.
Strength. The bone arrows are obviously poisonous. Originally, Chu Jungui was not afraid of ordinary poisons, but in the real dream, a gust of wind could freeze him. Maybe there would be some unstoppable poison attached to the bone arrows.
But after one arrow, there was no more movement in the forest.
The sky turned into mist, and he flew into the forest under the cover of night. After searching for a while, he found nothing. Apart from signs of lodging on a few bushes, no clues could be found.
Chu Jungui picked up the bone arrow and studied it. From the spectral view, the arrow tip was coated with some kind of biological poison. The workmanship of the entire arrow was not rough, the arrow tip was polished very sharp, the arrow shaft was cut smoothly, and the center of gravity
Quite reasonable, and the surface is also coated with a layer of grease.
"Master, nothing was found." Kaitian returned from searching and found nothing.
Chu Jungui handed the bone arrow to Kai Tian and said: "It's not an explorer, it should be some kind of creature in a real dream."
"They know how to use bows and arrows? Doesn't that mean they already have some intelligence?"
"According to past records, intelligent races have never appeared in real dreams, but ruins are occasionally found. Is this time caused by changes in the world?" Chu Jungui thought, and then said: "We will set out at dawn and search the forest thoroughly.
direction!"
Kaitian rose into the sky and said, "Okay, let me draw the terrain map first."
At dawn, the sky was still overcast, and there was a biting chill in the wind.
Chu Jungui had to knit another pair of gloves and a mask, wrapping himself so that only his two eyes were exposed. The material of the real dream has a good windproof effect, but Chu Jungui's skin and body tissue have almost zero protection in this regard.
.
At this moment, Kaitian had drawn an aerial terrain map with a radius of 50 kilometers, and Chu Jungui was planning a search route based on the terrain map.
According to the standards of human civilization, the level of this bone arrow has surpassed the Stone Age, and is roughly between the level of bronze and iron. In other words, it is quite primitive. And the highest technology of a civilization is basically reflected in weapons.
Therefore, no matter who the archers are, their level of civilization is generally at this level. They probably don’t have transportation tools yet and can only rely on their own physical strength to walk in the forest.
Hunting has a radius of activity, and one must maintain sufficient physical strength. Therefore, according to normal human standards, the attacker's camp should be less than 30 kilometers away from Chu Jungui's camp. Considering the particularity of the real dream, it would be very difficult to expand it to 50 kilometers.
It is possible to find them.
"Let's go." After planning the route, Chu Jungui did not delay, and took Kaitian to the forest to start his first in-depth exploration.
In the forest, the range of normal human perception will be greatly reduced. Generally, it can only detect a few tens of meters around it, and the area for visual observation is even smaller. However, with Kaitianhou, the exploration radius will suddenly expand to several hundred meters.
, the efficiency is greatly improved.
The forest is dark, damp and cold, with shrill chirping of birds and beasts from time to time, and the wind whistling through the trees is particularly eerie.
Chu Jungui marched like a ghost, leaving no trace along the way. When he rounded a giant tree, a clearing suddenly appeared in front of him. In the clearing, there was a small village!
