Chapter 780 The origin of the insect stick?

  After introducing each other and having a brief exchange, Gordon felt that this little chrysalis girl named 蛱蛱 was quite interesting.

  In a certain way, the personality is a bit similar to Fengying?

  If that guy were here, he would probably make new friends soon.

  The worm envoy who led them into the village seemed not interested in chatting. After seeing Gordon and his companions meeting each other, he silently prepared to leave.

Gordon stopped him, took out a flash bomb and threw it to the other party, briefly explained how to use it, and said with a smile: "I don't know if you have anything similar, it should be a small gift, thank you for bringing us in .”

  Hayata and the others also bowed or nodded slightly to express their gratitude.

  The envoy took the flash bomb, was silent for two seconds, nodded and left.

   "He's called Lichen, he's not very talkative, he's actually a nice person." Qiancao said to the hunters with a smile, "The insect envoys are not very popular, but they are very powerful."

   "I can tell." Gordon retracted his gaze, "Can you show us around for a while? I didn't expect so many people to live in the depths of the sea of ​​trees. Are there many settlements of this size?"

   "Gulu. Lead the way!" The chrysalis girl raised her hand.

  Madder pinned the two large leaves on the helmet that could serve as visors to the back of her head, "Not many, this place is called 'woodland', one of the largest settlements in the sea of ​​trees, most of the settlements are small.

  The Alchemy Academy is here, and young people from the sea of ​​trees come here to study. "

  Alchemy Academy.

  Gordon choked. There are educational institutions that can be called "colleges". It seems that the social structure of the aborigines in the sea of ​​trees is far more complicated than they thought.

   But in retrospect, they have only seen four or five aborigines so far, all of whom are young people, and each of them looks like a "combatant".

  Only from the armor and weapons, it can be seen that the combat systems of these people are completely different. Insect envoys, archers, and those who use similar insect sticks have turned into chrysalis.

  Ah, there is a man with big leather wings fixed under his armpits.

  If there is no special inheritance, it is impossible for young people to figure out these by themselves.

   "How many combat professions do you have here?" Gordon couldn't help asking.

   "Occupation? Everyone has their own, countless." Qiancao shook her head, "Some are only inherited by one person, and some are suitable for the dense forest belt in the south, but not suitable for the north.

   And it’s not necessarily fighting, but farming, collecting, forest patrolling, etc.”

   "Suddenly felt that our hunter system is quite simple." Gail couldn't help but commented.

  Anshir glanced at her sideways, "They don't have the term 'hunter' as a full-time combatant, everything is for survival in the dangerous forest.

  If you want to compare our society with them horizontally, artisans, messengers, scholars, farmers, etc. should be included in all walks of life. "

   "You really want to slap me, don't you?!"

   "I just don't want them to have unnecessary misunderstandings about us outsiders, such as intelligence."

   "You two, be quiet." Hilda, who was annoyed by the two of them, finally spoke, and the visiting team finally calmed down.

   Led by Akane and Weaver, they visited the Alchemy Academy.

  Different from the school in their impression, this place is more of a collective research institution, and Gordon finally knows why these young people who are obviously combatants come to learn the so-called "alchemy".

  The alchemy of the Shuhai people is simply a biological cultivation technique. In their own way, they cultivate plants, fungi, and even insects and reptiles that can be used by them.

  For example, the special chrysalis that co-exist with her on the nymph, of course, does not exist in nature, and is the product of alchemy cultivation.

  The living bows and arrows used by the previous archer, the quiver, and the special rat women on the worm lichen are all the results of alchemy intervention and cultivation.

  For example, the leaf armor, honeycomb armor, slime wrist armor, etc. on Qiancao's body were all "planted" by her.

  The only exception is the long stick in her hand. This weapon called "Ocarina Flute Hammer" is actually a bone instrument.

  Using the bones of certain monsters, it was carved with vocal cord membranes, etc., and was made for her by her elders.

  Gordon was very curious as to whether there was any connection between the flute hammer and the bug stick, so he specifically asked Hilda and Qiancao's teachers before confirming.

   Still really relevant.

   Ocarina hammers are common in the sea of ​​trees, madder uses it to control poisonous bees in the honeycomb armor, falconers use it to command birds of prey, and some people use it to control hunting insects.

  Outsiders learned and mastered the alchemy technique of directional cultivation of hunting insects, as well as the skills of commanding and controlling hunting insects. On this basis, they improved the ocarina flute hammer.

  The music function is almost completely eliminated, and only the most basic sound holes are kept, making it more biased towards weapons than musical instruments as a whole.

  At the same time, the functions of "lantern" and "pheromone" have been added to reduce the difficulty of insect manipulation and improve the accuracy of insect hunting commands.

   Fucking Insect Stick was born.

   It is said that this weapon is also used by people in the sea of ​​trees, and it can be regarded as a little commonality between the outside world and the residents of the sea of ​​trees.

  Gordon and the others were curious about the biological alchemy of the aborigines in the sea of ​​trees, while madder, squid, and even the teachers of the alchemy academy were also amazed at the manufacturing technology of the hunters' equipment.

  For the aborigines in the sea of ​​trees, metal is a rare resource.

  Because ore is scarce and easy to corrode, they rarely see the shadow of metal on their equipment, and they know nothing about ore smelting, alloy manufacturing, high-temperature forging and other industrial technologies.

  After learning this, Gail used his stripping knife to exchange for several plant and insect materials that are considered very precious in the outside world.

  Gordon and the others followed suit. They also used knives, and some hunting props. They changed a lot of messy things.

  Besides, people from the Alchemy Academy showed great interest in hunters' weapons.

  The hunters' swords can easily cut through trees, and the ballista bow and arrow can penetrate rocks. They were shocked by the power, so they offered to make a trade request.

  The hunters naturally refused, and they regretted it deeply.

  The residents of Shuhai seldom actively hunt large monsters, and when they have to fight, they usually use traps, poisonous insects, poisons, etc. to encircle and kill them.

  Like hunters, relying on their own force and weapons, it is unimaginable for them to confront large monsters head-on and slash and kill them.

  In this alchemy academy full of wonders, Gordon and others spent half a day of amazing time.

  The sky is getting dark, and it is evening.

  As "landlords", Rubio gnats enthusiastically brought the hunters home, and treated them to a special dinner with a high protein content.

  Anshir, who had already experienced something during lunch, cleverly found an excuse, and sneaked out to eat the food.

  The rest of the people looked at the fresh food that was still squirming on the table, their faces turned green.

  Facing the munching, crunching, mouth-full of madder and the others, even Gordon, who is willing to try and never picky eaters, can't bear it.

  Hayata took a small piece of Stamina Thunderworm from Gordon's plate, straightened his neck and swallowed it, then smiled stiffly and claimed that he had a small appetite and was full.

  Gail is talking nonsense even more, saying that he never eats dinner in order to keep in shape.

  Only Hilda looked normal and tasted everything. The young hunters admired her determination.

  After the meal, Hayatta and Gail exchanged glances with an empty stomach.

   It’s better to wait for Qiancao and the others to fall asleep, then sneak up and eat the food they carry

  Ps.

About Alchemy Academy, Ocarina Flute Hammer, Falcon Trainer, Insect Messenger, and these equipments all come from part of the mh2 data book. The data book itself does not explain in detail, and the connection with the insect stick is also It's my subjective guess, not an official setting.

   However, the main creative team has also mentioned many times that many of the later settings are actually developed from the earlier abandoned cases. This guess should be reasonable.
