The Growth of a God

Chapter 94 The Beginning of Civilization (15)

After the personal intervention of Jiao Ling, the "Apostle of God", the negotiations between the mermaids and the skeleton people went surprisingly smoothly.

Especially when the mermaids took the initiative to propose an alliance, Gu Sheng felt flattered.

However, after understanding the needs of the mermaids, Gu Sheng felt that this seemed natural.

Unlike the Skeleton Clan who are protected by the Sun of Sin,
It is very difficult for mermaids to reproduce, and after hundreds of years of reproduction, they have only formed a small settlement.

This is certainly because most of the mermaid cubs turn into human-faced fish without intelligence during their growth process.

But on the other hand, due to the fact that the mermaids are full of treasures, they have to face hunting by other species all year round.

After weighing the two options, forming an alliance with the Skeleton People naturally became an inevitable choice.

[But... is it really just because of this reason? ]

With such doubts, Gu Sheng accepted the mermaid clan's proposal for an alliance.

Then, the Skeleton Clan and the Mermaid Clan, who had entered their honeymoon period, showed amazing potential.

The first step was the domestication of the human-faced fish.

Under the leadership of Gu Sheng, the Skeleton Clan found a way to tame the human-faced fish in a very short time, which greatly alleviated the most urgent population problem of the mermaid clan.

Not only that, Ali, the most outstanding prophet among the skeleton people, also noticed that those human-faced fish were essentially just mermaids who had not yet acquired intelligence.

If the defects of the human-faced fish can be systematically supplemented, there is a high probability that the human-faced fish can become a real mermaid.

As for what is systematic supplementation?

From mother to embryo, from diet to education...

The people of the Skeleton Clan demonstrated what professionalism is through their actions.

For ordinary people who have the ability to independently create "artificial life", it is a piece of cake to replenish the spirituality of the embryo and increase the soul strength during the maternal stage.

After the embryos gave birth to young, the skeleton people did not choose to release them like the mermaids did.

Starting from the most basic language, to the popularization of universal characters, to nutritional supplements for daily diet...

The skeleton people did not miss any stage of the mermaids' growth, to ensure that they could awaken their true wisdom to the greatest extent possible, rather than degenerating into beasts.

After solving the problem of domesticating the human-faced fish.

The second impact that the skeleton people brought to the mermaids was the huge trade throughput.

Dragon silk and mermaid beads are just common items among the mermaids.

However, after these two items were circulated among the skeleton people, they quickly became novel toys that many of them liked.

The colorful dragon silk, which does not get wet when in contact with water, has greatly impacted the three views of the people whose aesthetic taste is monotonous.

It was the first time they realized that there were so many beautiful colors in the world besides white.

In exchange for the precious dragon silk, the skeleton people provided the mermaids with considerable resources and technical support, allowing them to enter a period of true racial explosion.

On the contrary, the mermaid pearl that can shine forever does not have much meaning for the skeleton people who do not rely on vision.

However, that is only relative.

So the question is, is the alliance between the Skeleton People and the Mermaid People only a one-sided benefit?
The answer is naturally no.

For the Skeleton People, who are in a dominant position, what they seek is not advantages in terms of resources or technology.

What the skeleton people really want is to continue to influence the mermaids. In Li Hao's opinion, the extremely sinister leader of the skeleton people, Gu Sheng, is actually deliberately making it impossible for the mermaids to leave the skeleton people.

Materials, energy, technology...

The more the mermaids got from the skeleton people, the more they could not tolerate themselves returning to their previous primitive tribal stage.

Especially when the mermaids, in their ignorant state, handed over the right to educate their next generation to the skeleton people, it was destined that the mermaids born in the future would be naturally close to the skeleton people.

In addition, the skeleton people are also using similar methods to divide and disintegrate members of other hundreds of tribes.

In this process, the dragon silk and mermaid beads provided by the mermaids became important "universal currencies".

No race can refuse the dragon silk and mermaid beads of the mermaids.

These two things are an irresistible temptation for the members of the hundreds of tribes who are still in the primitive civilization stage.

In just less than a few decades, under the leadership of Gu Sheng, the skeleton people used the method of forming alliances and making coalitions to eliminate all the voices that opposed them among the hundreds of tribes.

Lingyu, Jiuwei, Yayan...

As members of hundreds of tribes joined this huge alliance one after another, Gu Sheng of the Skeleton People officially became the leader of this alliance.

【This is a war without the smoke of gunpowder. 】

Li Hao, who witnessed the whole process, sighed and once again realized that he had underestimated the life in this world.

Individuals who are able to stand out from their own groups may be limited by their own vision and unable to have a broad perspective and a comprehensive view of the past and present like the elites among modern humans.

But in terms of ideals, intelligence, vision and means, they are not inferior to modern humans at all.

After all, these individuals have been trained from the bottom up and have sufficient practical experience.

As for theory?

That can be summarized in the process of practice and will not affect the final result at all.

Moreover, human social theory is based on the system of human society.

The mountain and sea world has its own special circumstances.

Simply copying the social structure of the Earth is not suitable for today's skeleton people and members of the hundreds of races.

The most obvious and basic point is that the intelligent individuals in the Mountain and Sea Realm come from different species and have nothing in common.

Therefore, they do not have a broader sense of group identity other than their own kind.

Under such circumstances, if one wants to learn how human society can establish a "grand unified" social framework, it will inevitably be an extremely difficult and complicated process.

To be honest, Li Hao was already very surprised that the Bone People did not choose to eliminate other species like humans did, making the Skeleton People the only intelligent race in the Mountain and Sea Realm.

Afterwards, a series of alliances and actions to strengthen the influence of the Skeleton People even made Li Hao wonder if it was a "traveler" who had traveled through time to the Mountain and Sea Realm.

[As expected, it is a being born from the bones of a dragon…]

[I guess even among the dragons of the past, it must have been a wise man known for his wisdom! ]

Glancing at the skeletons that were crossing mountains and rivers and constantly shuttling between the major populations, Li Hao began to doubt for the first time whether the skeleton people had completely gotten rid of the influence of their previous lives.
