Chapter 374: The Combat Potential of the Na’vi
Just when Jack was returning from the link cabin after possessing the body of the Na'vi and controlling his flying mount Banshee, he naturally encountered the Endermon. Although this flying beast was similar in appearance to Banshee, its size was several times larger than Banshee.

However, just as Jack was controlling Banximon to fly over the head of Endermon and then jump onto his body to conquer Endermon, Liu Xiu started chatting with Dr. Grace.

Liu Xiu smiled and said to Grace:
"Dr. Grace, can you tell me in detail about the Na'vi people on Pandora? Is their intelligence really no less than that of humans?"

But Grace did not refuse. After all, Liu Xiu had just helped them and rescued them from a life-and-death crisis. From Dr. Grace's point of view, if Chudi's transport plane at the base was really shot down or blown up by Miles, the consequences would naturally be disastrous.

So Grace explained to Liu Xiu with a smile.

The Na'vi are the only natives of Pandora. They are nearly three meters tall. Surprisingly, in many ways, their bodies are almost human-like, and even beautiful by our human standards. The waist is narrow and elongated. The shoulders are broad, forming a V-shaped back. The neck is as flexible as an owl and can rotate almost 180 degrees. Each Na'vi has two patterns on his body, one is similar to zebra stripes all over the body, and the other is like stars distributed along their nerves and circulatory system, which can emit beautiful fluorescence in the dark.

Because the Na'vi often had to jump from tree to tree or run between tree trunks and rocks, they had a lemur-like tail to balance their torsos. Their feet had antagonistic "big toes" so that they could not only walk quickly on the ground but also move flexibly between branches. The Na'vi had almond-shaped, cat-like large and sensitive eyes that could see part of the infrared spectrum, so they had good night vision. We think that the Na'vi developed from a time when bipedalism split between the forest floor and the canopy. Their large eyes and blue tabby coloring indicate that their direct ancestors were essentially nocturnal, and their body coloring was effective in disguising themselves in the jungle during the day.

The Na'vi are slimmer than humans, with clear muscle lines. Their thin appearance does not match their strength. They have about four to five times the strength of humans. The sense of the Na'vi is much better than that of humans, which may have evolved to cope with the dangerous environment of Pandora. They have excellent night vision, allowing them to see clearly in low light conditions. The Na'vi also have a very sensitive sense of smell, allowing them to search for distant creatures through pheromones.

The Na'vi's skeletal system is also incredible, with a unique calcified structure and keratin forming a porous fiber bundle layered support. This is similar to reinforced concrete. Because of this strong bone structure, the Na'vi's bones are not easy to fracture, and even if they are fractured, they can still retain their basic shape, so in the relatively low gravity of Pandora, the Na'vi can fall from a high place without getting hurt.

Like almost all Pandoran vertebrates, they also have a neural interface. This is an appendage about one meter long. Compared to most other Pandoran vertebrates, the Na'vi only have one neural interface. So one of the Na'vi punishments is to cut off the neural interface, thus permanently cutting off their connection with the many creatures of Pandora and greatly reducing their hunting and fighting abilities. This punishment is usually for Na'vi who have committed very serious crimes.

Pandora, with its rich flora and fauna, ensures a stable population of the Na'vi.

The Na'vi were good at hunting, preparing food, and making various tools and weapons, mainly hunting longbows, which were made of wood or animal bones and were very strong.

A typical arrow used by the Na'vi is almost two meters long. The arrow is made of volcanic glass rock similar to obsidian, which can easily penetrate glass. Then the arrow is coated with a neurotoxin. The toxin is very powerful and can kill many animals.

Of course, they also carry hunting knives, which are 20 to 30 cm long curved blades made from the claws of animals. These knives can give a fatal blow to the fallen prey during hunting. In addition, knives are also used in combat and ceremonial.

It is the tree of life worshiped by the Na'vi. The tree preserves the voices of the Na'vi's ancestors and the "Virgin Mary" they worship. The Na'vi can establish a spiritual connection with it. The seeds of this tree are tree elves that float in the air and sparkle. The Na'vi have two types of mounts. One is a combat mount called a heavy armored horse used on land. Its shape and function are similar to horses on the blue planet, but it has six legs and is three meters tall when standing. There are antenna-like neural sensing tentacles on both sides of the head, and a solid hard shell on the shoulders and the back of the neck.

Another type is the Banshee beast used in the sky: it looks like a pterosaur, has a ferocious temperament, and likes to live in groups around waterfalls. The Na'vi people can tame it by connecting their braids to one of the tentacles of the Banshee beast. The Banshee beast will only obey one Na'vi as its master throughout its life.

After listening to Grace's introduction to the Na'vi people's body structure and living habits, Liu Xiu nodded. At the same time, he began to evaluate the Na'vi people's combat potential in his mind.

Although Liu Xiu knew from previous observations that the Na'vi, who were three meters tall on average, were very strong, it should be noted that the strength of a normal human male is about one hundred kilograms, so it is not surprising that a Na'vi, who are three meters tall, are four times stronger than humans.

Of course, greater weight and strength naturally mean that they can pick up more powerful weapons without worrying about recoil, because their weight is enough to allow them to withstand greater recoil.

For example, the bows and arrows used by humans are generally only 80 centimeters long, but the bows and arrows used by the Na'vi are two meters long, and the weight of the bows and arrows even reaches half a pound.

So this means that the maximum caliber of human individual firearms is 12.7mm, and even then the person has to lie on the ground to shoot. However, the Na'vi of Pandora have four or five times the strength of humans and are three meters tall, so they can easily handle 20mm or even 30mm machine guns, let alone 12.7mm caliber firearms.

After all, for ordinary people, the weight of a gun of more than ten or twenty kilograms is already the upper limit, but for the Na'vi, the weight of one hundred kilograms is the upper limit.

The 30mm caliber machine gun is more than enough to hit not only mechas but also transport planes.

As long as the Na'vi people have these powerful modern weapons and use the dense forests for cover, they will definitely make the invading Blue Star No. 2 people suffer a lot. Of course, it would be better to get some bulletproof vests to increase the survival rate of the Na'vi people.

Of course, the Na'vi themselves are naturally unable to produce these modern thermal weapons suitable for combat, and the humans on Blue Planet No. 2 naturally cannot manufacture them for them. Therefore, they can only rely on the productivity of the Wandering Blue Planet to manufacture thermal weapons suitable for them.
