Civilized Zerg Lord

Chapter 28 Centipede matures
time flies………

Most of the summer has passed, and the population of the Guman tribe has grown to [-].

After this, however, population growth ceased.

This is not because Gu Hao is unwilling to plunder other tribes, but because the current food of the Guman tribe can no longer support the survival of a larger population.

There are fundamental differences in the food needs of scattered and concentrated populations.

Among scattered populations, people mainly relied on hunting and gathering as a source of livelihood.

The demand for food in this way is not intensive, and everyone can find enough food within a certain area.

However, as populations began to gather and form tribes, food needs became more concentrated, requiring larger amounts of food to satisfy everyone's needs.

At this time, hunting and gathering were no longer sufficient to meet the needs of the population, and they had to rely on more stable food sources such as agriculture.

Although Gu Hao has greatly improved the efficiency of fish production through his own methods, the growth of population has also brought greater pressure.

He must control population growth, reduce food pressure, and at the same time find new food sources or increase agricultural output.

This is why the Gu barbarian tribe must be careful, on the one hand to increase the yield of crops as much as possible, on the other hand to control the population growth of the tribe.

For Gu Hao, this is a problem that he must face and solve, and it is also the wisdom and decision-making necessary to lead a tribe.

Gu Hao has been trying to increase the ways the tribe can obtain food as much as possible, but most of them are just temporary methods to resist food shortages, treating the symptoms but not the root cause.

Only the development of farming technology can truly solve this problem and ensure a stable supply of food.

Although gathering and hunting are now the main sources of food, especially fishing, it is obviously not enough to satisfy the [-] people.

Since spring, Gu Hao has trained a group of farmers, and they have successfully planted some crops, which has improved the tribe's food supply.

In the farmland of the Guman tribe, the yellow and thin ears of rice swayed in the wind, and they were full of life.

Golden, which symbolizes life and hope, brings comfort to all.

However, fully relying on agriculture to supply food will not be achieved until at least next year.

Because the rice seeds have not been fully cultivated, the yield is extremely low.

Gu Hao knew that the efficiency and stability of agricultural production were the keys to future tribal development.

As for whether the Chiyan tribe in the north could maintain such a huge population, Gu Hao had also investigated it.

The reason is simple, their reserve lords adopted a harsher slavery system.

They squeezed the life force of the slaves in harsh ways, controlled the food supply to a minimum, and used the blood and sweat of the slaves to maintain the size of the tribe.

The Red Flame Tribe should now number 6000 people, but most of them are slaves who are strictly controlled.

Although Gu Hao's Gu barbarian tribe also had many slaves, his attitude towards slaves was completely different.

In the Gu barbarian tribe, even if they are slaves, their basic human rights are respected and protected, which is completely different from the slave life like animals.

Gu Hao believes that the excessive indulgence of slavery is not conducive to the formation of the prototype of civilization. On the contrary, it is easy for the development of civilization to move in the direction of barbarism.

Gu Hao hopes to build a civilization full of vitality and good circulation, rather than a society dominated by greedy, lazy slave owners.

In the Zerg society planned by Gu Hao, such people would never be allowed to exist.

Therefore, although the Guman tribe already has a large number of weapons, Gu Hao does not intend to adopt the expansion method like the Chiyan tribe.At the same time, Gu Hao also decided not to allow such a tribe to exist within the sphere of influence of the Guman tribe.

Gu Hao came to a huge warehouse. This warehouse-like house was where he used to cultivate bone armor centipedes.

The interior of the house is very spacious, with various tools hanging on the walls and thick straw mats on the floor so that the bone centipedes can live comfortably.

Here, there are more than 80 bone-armored centipedes ranging from two to three meters in length. They crawl leisurely inside the house, rubbing against each other and making gentle rubbing sounds.

The largest among the bone-armored centipedes was undoubtedly the one that Gu Hao cultivated for the first time.

It now has a huge body of nearly four meters, with hard bone armor and full of strength.

In order to distinguish it from other bone armor centipedes, Gu Hao gave it a new name: Bone Emperor!
The Bone King is particularly eye-catching among the many bone-armored centipedes. Its bone armor is covered with unique lines, and its carapace is densely packed with tiny bone spurs.

Gu Hao stood in front of the Bone Emperor, his heart filled with excitement.

These bone armor centipedes will become the powerful fighting force of the Gu barbarian tribe.

There is one last problem with having so many bone armor centipedes. There are not enough witches in the Gu barbarian tribe to control so many bone armor centipedes.

However, Gu Hao has already found a solution. Gu Hao used the bleeding Gu in the tribe to evolve an evolved version of the bleeding Gu that ordinary warriors can also use.

This kind of blood-seeking Gu has a very low demand for blood, which allows a large number of ordinary tribesmen to control these bone armor centipedes.

At this time, the blood oozing Gu corresponding to the warriors selected by Gu Hao has also been cultivated.

Gu Hao summoned them all here and fed their blood oozing Gu to the corresponding bone armor centipede.

After a while, these 82 bone centipedes all accepted the control of the warrior.

These warriors are the most elite tribesmen in the tribe, and they have achieved many feats in the process of conquering other tribes.

Gu Hao asked these warriors to cooperate with the Bone Centipede for a few days, and then tasks would be assigned to them.

Under Gu Hao's guidance, the soldiers began to learn how to control the bone armor centipede.

They felt the breath of the bone centipedes with their hearts and learned how to guide their actions.

The soldiers' eyes were full of concentration and determination.

The warehouse was filled with a tense and orderly atmosphere, and the soldiers and the bone-armored centipede were working together more and more tacitly.

In order for the soldiers to improve their skills in controlling bone-armored centipedes, Gu Hao specially assigned them to go to the wild for hunting training.

In the deep woods, the warriors learned to control bone centipedes and how to use these huge creatures to hunt.

The bone armor centipede moves as fast as lightning, and its powerful bone armor is extremely hard and can effectively resist the attacks of ferocious beasts.

At the same time, their speed and agility also allow warriors to track and capture prey with ease.

Under Gu Hao's guidance, the warriors learned how to hunt by controlling bone-armored centipedes.

Some bone centipedes will use their bone armor to burrow into the ground and quietly wait for the arrival of prey.

When prey passes by, the bone-armored centipede will suddenly emerge from the ground and capture the prey instantly.

In the deep forest, the joyous screams of the bone-armored centipede that successfully hunted its prey could be heard from time to time. The cooperation between the warriors and the bone-armored centipede took another step forward.
