During the past half month, they had already worked with other warriors in the tribe to repel two waves of invading barbarians into their mirror tribe territory.
Now, they were performing quite skillfully.
Faced with this unfamiliar weaponry, the four barbarians had no idea what Luagia and the others were doing.
Before they could take a closer look, with Luagia's command for stones, charged with centrifugal force, flew out with a roar.
This unexpected situation left the four barbarians no time to react.
One of them was struck directly in the head by a stone, causing his face to explode in blood as he fell to the ground, dazed.
The other three barbarians were stunned by the sudden attack, instinctively glancing at Luajia and the others in the distance.
According to their understanding, they were at a loss for how to respond and soon began to scream and flee with one of them showing some decency by dragging the fallen comrade along as he escaped.
To be honest, Luagia was also surprised by the successful hit.
After all, the biggest disadvantage of stone throwers is their lack of accuracy.
And given a limited training time, there was definitely an element of luck involved.
Yet, it still brought him a pleasant surprise.
Without needing Lajette to say much, after throwing one stone, the four stone throwers skillfully placed a second stone on their slingshots.
Spinning them again.
One stone after another flew continuously towards the opponent's tribal camp.
Laj's actions at this moment, if translated into a game, would be akin to deploying four teams of ranged units, taking advantage of the high ground to block the enemy at their gates.
This setup could wreak havoc at the beginning of a game and it proved to be the same in this ancient world.
The absolute advantage of range.
The initial headsh shot had undoubtedly established their dominance.
The guy with the smash forehead was still lying on the ground, unsure if he was dead or alive.
With such a precedent lying beside them, who would dare to charge forward? Did they really think they were invincible? Standing nearby, Lu Yong felt a bit uncomfortable.
He had also borrowed a slingshot from Xiaoan to practice secretly a few times.
But no matter how he tried, it just didn't work for him, and he eventually gave up.
Now, watching the four stone throwers wreak havoc and leave the opposing tribes barbarians defenseless, it would be a lie to say he wasn't feeling a bit frustrated.
It seemed that their group had come out just to watch the show.
Lajia did not deny that the main force in this battle was the Stonethrowers.
The emergence of ranged units held revolutionary significance.
As a modern person, Luaji knew this well.
On modern battlefields, soldiers charge with guns.
When have you seen anyone charge with melee weapons? In modern times, soldiers might carry a bayonet for self-defense.
But weapons like swords and clubs have long been eliminated from the battlefield.
However, their tribe was still in the primitive stone age, making discussions about firearms premature.
For several years to come, the status of cold weapons would remain unshakable, bringing Luo Yong and the others along was clearly not just for show, but to prevent the opposing trib's barbarians from closing in.
However, the effectiveness of that initial headshot was so impressive that it shattered the courage of those wanting to charge.
With the enemy too frightened to advance, Lu Yong and the others naturally had no role to play.
No matter how frustrated Luo Yong and the others felt, from Loajia's perspective as the commander, this was clearly the situation he was most pleased with.
After confirming the remaining number of stones with the stonethrowers and noticing that half were still left, Luaja began to call for their surrender.
There was no suspense about the downfall of this small tribe.
For Lia and the others, the most challenging part was the distance between the tribes, which was somewhat annoying.
Beyond that, there was no pressure of threat.
Signaling to Lu Yong and the others not to let their guard down, Luaja and his group in the manner victors boldly entered the tribal camp to avoid unnecessary chaos.
Luaja took off the wolf bone mask from his face and instructed someone to gather all 30 or so members of the tribe in the center of the camp.
A brief scan of the crowd revealed a surprising detail to Lajia.
Among the 30 or so people in this tribe, there were men, women, and children.
At first glance, there was nothing unusual, but the problem lay in the fact that this area had recently been swept by low temperatures after half a month of frigid cold.
Their mirror tribe had struggled with heating from coal, and the fish resources in Mirror Lake have been hard to come by.
How had this small tribe managed to survive? Laj's eyebrows raised slightly, and his expression became somewhat subtle.
Could it be? Was his luck that good? Did what he lack to him? Chapter 56.
Dumbfounded regarding his luck, Lu G always felt it was quite subtle.
In the past, when playing card drawing games, he was often categorized by the chieftains in the group as a European spy.
However, deep down, he knew that his luck fluctuated between good and bad.
When it was good, it was very good, and when it was bad, it could be disastrous to the point where even he couldn't fathom it.
Would there be any medical talents in this tribe? At this moment, Lu Gi felt a mix of tension and apprehension.
Without any nonsense, he took the opportunity while everyone in the tribe was gathered to decisively check each person's panel, also verifying their loyalty at the same time.
Soon, after confirming a dozen people, Lu G's expression grew slightly serious.
Not to mention medical talents, there wasn't even a slightly outstanding individual among these dozen, with several of them even being true ordinary people with only two star attributes across the board.
Individuals with no special skills like this could only be sent to work as laborers or helpers in this era.
However, his past experiences with fluctuating luck had instilled in Lu G a mindset of never giving up until the last moment.
There were still nearly half of the people left, so it was too early to feel disappointed.
After looking at another five or six individuals, he finally found someone who slightly improved his mood.
A member of the trib's hunting team won.
Continuing to look further, perhaps after a streak of bad luck, his fortune began to improve slightly as he discovered several individuals with single or dual attributes reaching three stars.
However, at this moment, after examining the last person in the tribe, Lu G couldn't feel happy at all.
What the hell? Where are the medical talents? He had even checked that snot-nosed little kid in the tribe, and there was none at all.
Is everyone in the tribe here? Luog still had a flicker of hope and asked again, "Surely a group of old, weak, ill, and disabled individuals couldn't have survived the harsh cold for half a month just due to good luck, right?" In response to Lu G's question, an old man who looked to be at least in his 60s slowly stepped forward.
Although Lu G's strange behavior of checking everyone had puzzled him, having lived for most of his life, what could he not understand? The situation was stronger than the individual.
Being a slave to another tribe was certainly better than dying right now.
With this mindset, the old man cooperated somewhat, saying, "Everyone is here, sir.
" However, as soon as he opened his mouth, before Lu G could even hear what he said clearly.
He uncontrollably took two steps back and instinctively pinched his nose.
The words that came to his lips were, "Damn, how much garlic have you eaten?" As soon as he said this, the old man was stunned.
Lu Yong and the others were also stunned.
And in the end, even Lu Gi was dumbfounded.
The others were confused because they had no idea what garlic was.
While Lu G was stunned because he actually smelled garlic here.
In that moment, he inexplicably started to realize there's garlic in this place.
You've eaten something, right? Lu G's eyes were fixed on the old man with keen interest.
In this era, it wasn't easy to live to his age, and the old man was clearly a wise person, seeing that his secret goods could not be hidden any longer, he honestly admitted.
The old man reached into his clothes and pulled out something.
Lu G looked and saw that it was indeed a head of garlic.
Moreover, this garlic had obviously been dried, so it could be preserved for a long time.
Garlic is a good thing.
Lu OG clearly remembered that when he was in elementary school during a flu outbreak, their school lunch trays would include three cloves of garlic.
This stuff prevents flu, can fight cancer, and most importantly, he loved the dish garlic pork.
Just thinking about it made him swallow his saliva.
Life without seasoning was really tough, and his mouth felt bland.
If it weren't for the crowd watching, he would have wanted to peel a clove of garlic and pop it in his mouth.
The reason the people in this tribe could endure was evidently because they consumed enough garlic regularly, giving them strong resistance.
Maintaining his chieftain demeanor, Lu G held the garlic in his hand and glanced at the old man.
The old man seemed cunning.
Lu G felt that he wasn't trustworthy.
The main reason was that he checked the old man's loyalty and found it to be only 65 points.
Combined with the old man's relatively cooperative behavior earlier, Lu G immediately understood.
This old man was likely a fence sitter, he would follow whichever way the wind blew, indicating that he had little loyalty, but normally wouldn't cause trouble.
Upon further thought, it was clear that this old man had survived to this point, so he was evidently knowledgeable about the ways to preserve his life.
With this in mind, Lu G decided to bluff him.
What else do you have? Show it all.
Hearing this, Lu Yong<unk>s muscles bulged as he had a simpler mindset than Luo Gi.
He thought that if their chieftain said there was something, then there must be.
This old man was not honest.
