Chapter 662 Observation Experiment
"Tsk tsk, it's the prototype of commercial activities." Shuer sighed softly, shook his head and said, "I didn't expect it to have reached this stage."

"Eh? Is it special?" After all, Moria is not Xiu'er. In order to help his sister control the family territory, Xiu Er had conducted in-depth and systematic research on this knowledge, but Moria had no similar experience. She really didn't Understand the symbolic meaning, "I just find it interesting, is it representative?"

"Well, the specifics are more complicated, and it is difficult to explain clearly in a short time. If you are interested, I can recommend 36, no, 37 books, which can be found in the Great Library of the Temple of the Gods. After you understand it, you It’s almost understandable.”

"Hey, this grass must taste good. I'm going to eat grass." It's not impossible for a race like Lin Jing to read books patiently, but 37 books are the most boring academic books. Just kidding, Murray Ya is sure that from ancient times to today, no forest elf has ever succeeded.

"In short, you just need to understand that this is one of the landmark events that marks the development of civilization to a certain extent." Shuer ignored the guy disguised as a deer, but patted the Thunderstorm Beast at his feet, "This piece The market... I mean this transaction... in short, how long has this kind of activity been going on in the square?”

"It's been a long time. My wisdom has existed since I was born, about 70 years ago." Rex asked almost the same question as Lin Jing, "What's wrong, is it strange?"

"It's nothing, just a little unexpected." Xiul asked thoughtfully, "Did the dragons guide you to build it?"

"No, I don't know how specific it is, but I heard from the elders that the dragons didn't live here at the earliest, but some intelligent beings thought it was quieter here and chose to place their nests here. Later, the intelligent beings gathered here More and more, each race has its own advantages, and of course its own shortcomings, so that some things that other races can easily do cannot be done by themselves. I don’t know who came up with the idea first, and everyone began to talk to each other. We cooperated. At first we just helped each other occasionally, which was not too troublesome anyway and made both parties live more comfortably. But as the number of intelligent entities increased, there were more and more situations that required mutual assistance, and gradually there were The intelligent body specializes in helping other individuals solve such problems so that everyone can be satisfied."

"And everyone took up so much of their time that they couldn't go out to look for food. In order to express their gratitude, every time they asked for help, they would bring back their favorite food as a thank you gift. Gradually, this pattern became fixed. The thank you gift has also become a reward. By the time I developed wisdom, everyone was used to it, and in addition to helping to clean up the body, you can also exchange some things, look over there."

Shuuer had already seen what Rex was referring to, a long-necked herbivorous beast dragging several trampled creatures to its tail.

The long-necked monster is too heavy, the four legs are not only thick, but also the soles of the feet are huge, try to expand the contact area so as not to sink into the ground.Therefore, when they walk, they often accidentally trample to death some ordinary beasts, just like humans trampling to death bugs. It seems that Shuer's worry just now is not unreasonable.

Under normal circumstances, if you trample to death, you will trample to death. You can't eat it anyway, and you don't know how to mourn the unlucky guy. The long-necked giant beast won't even look at it, but these intelligent beings won't do that anymore. They will collect the corpses when needed and exchange them for some services they want.For this reason, some similar super-large beasts even began to deliberately trample some beasts to death, but this must be done only by looking at the opportunity.

Of course, super-large intelligent bodies are rare in number after all. Most herbivorous giants do not have this ability, and their physical characteristics are not suitable for hunting. But don't worry, they also have their own methods when they need the services of carnivorous giants.

For example, use the freshest young grass collected to exchange for fresh corpses from some omnivorous creatures, and then use these corpses as rewards to hire the services of those special giant beasts. Although the quantity is obviously not proportional, grass can be found everywhere. Collect it It is still very relaxed and can fully meet their needs.

That's right, it was an exchange. It was precisely because of seeing this scene that Xiure sighed and his expression became quite subtle at the same time.

"What about the dragons?" Shuer thought for a moment and suddenly realized that Rex didn't mention the dragon clan. "In the past, the Dragon Clan did not live together with everyone, but lived in a very remote mountainous area. But since this square began to take shape, they seemed to be very interested and often came to visit. In the end, they simply moved most of the clan to Lived here.”

"Tsk, tsk, that's it." Shuer nodded. He didn't doubt Rex's story, and he wasn't surprised that the dragons would move here. It seems that the powerful higher dragons in the dragon group are not interested in the children's spontaneous behavior. I'm very interested. I moved here just to observe it nearby. As for the purpose of observation... haha, it's self-evident.

"What do these guys want to do?" Shuer squinted his eyes and muttered to himself, "It's definitely not as simple as I thought before. If I'm not wrong, their goals or ambitions are far, far away. Bigger than I imagined.”

"Eh? You already have an idea?" Moria raised her hoof and kicked Xiuer, "Isn't it a simple observation?"

"It's hard to say, and I'm not sure, but observation is just a means, and they must have other purposes." Shuer suddenly glared at Moria, "You are the liaison representative, and you also represent the Dragon Clan in front of the mage. You, the Dragon Clan, You actually came to ask me?"

"They didn't tell me their purpose, and I didn't even see them." Moria said innocently, "It's just that Seglas and his mother had a secret conversation once. Maybe my mother knew, but she didn't tell me. "

"Well, I think Lady Anika should know something about it. After all, she has witnessed similar history with her own eyes." Shuer pondered, "It's not an unacceptable purpose. At least for a long time, there won't be any What impact."

"Ok?"

"Huh, I don't know what it feels like to personally promote the evolution of a race. Maybe Seglas wants to go back to the path of his old friends." Shuer shrugged easily, no longer like before. He looked so thoughtful, but the next moment, his pupils suddenly shrank slightly and his gaze stopped in one direction.

He saw something that looked familiar.

A dark arthropod with one side covered with saw teeth, like a natural hand saw, was being held in the mouth of a giant beast dragging a large bundle of grass.

　Tomorrow, tomorrow.
