After a long while, the Catman Priest slowly said, "Start storing food from today."
"The fish will soon be migrating back."
"The women and children should focus on making fishing nets, and the hunters should make the caught prey into jerky."
As the Priest, wise man, and elder of the Catman Tribe, he must consider the future of the tribe and be prepared for the worst.
The dragon can fly away.
But what about them? Where else can they go?
The young Catman warriors didn't understand, but soon someone looked up at the juvenile dragon soaring past, seeming to make a connection.
Oh!
The Priest must want to feed the dragon well and store more food, just to be well-prepared.
The tribe's warriors quickly got busy. Although the north is cold, it has advantages; with temperatures mostly below zero, except during the hot summer, they generally don't have to worry about food spoilage, and it can be preserved for a long time.
Inside the Dragon's Nest.
The juvenile dragon spiraled to the ground and went to rest.
Duncan was also gazing at the distant cold-climate forest, pondering something with a slightly serious expression.
He must find an opportunity to take a look south.
Lest the Elf Empire marches to the doorstep while the juvenile dragon is snoozing away in the Dragon's Nest.
From the brief contact so far, the Dark Elf Empire's strength appears exceedingly formidable, marking the pinnacle of the Middle Ages, surpassing other worlds in craftsmanship, magic use, and personal combat prowess.
Such an empire beginning to expand is indeed unstoppable.
Perspective change.
Duncan suddenly switched back to the number one human form, quickly summoning the advisor by his side, and said in a deep voice, "Is there any civilization technology from ancient Greece?"
"The relatively simple kind."
"Something that can be mastered with casual learning, low threshold, but suitable for the Northern European environment like knowledge, techniques, crafts, and so on?"
Huh?
The advisor in front of Duncan, a bearded middle-aged man who is a mathematician with broad interests, now looked a bit bewildered.
I don't know?
I'm just a mathematician! Mathematics is foundational, but its application depends on other disciplines, right?
Northern Europe?
Is the Governor planning to spread civilization knowledge to the Northern European Barbarian Race?
Duncan looked exasperated, dismissing with a wave of the hand, "Go."
"Summon all the teachers, scholars, professors with stars and rankings from the Academy at London for me!"
Recently, he reformed the university system, where those with a star badge are professional scholars and professors, and some who have published works or made inventions receive an additional gold star.
In these two months, the Britain technology tree has not climbed slowly, even producing the weighted catapult.
A bunch of mathematicians gathered together; if they couldn't create a weighted catapult after Duncan initiated the process, that would be excessive. They even improved the rough drafts drawn by Duncan.
Although there hasn't been a practical test yet, and the cost is slightly high.
Soon.
The bewildered London scholars gathered together, looking at the Governor's proposition with some confusion, but luckily, this place was not lacking in smart individuals, and soon the topic shifted.
——How to develop civilization and enter a new era for a primitive Northern European tribe.
——What crafts and technologies can adapt to the cold climate of Northern Europe?
——How to lead the Northern European Barbarian Tribe from a fishing, hunting, and nomadic life towards civilized urbanization?
Duncan was unskilled, but that was okay.
He still had his think tank, the elite scholars of the Academy of Athens were all here; he refused to believe that they couldn't develop a primitive tribe.
Just look.
After the hypothesis was established, a natural scientist soon stood up, saying, "Governor, sir."
"Since there are rivers."
"Then naturally, the priority is to develop fisheries!"
"For large-scale fishing, ships are required, and the Mediterranean fishing boats are quite suitable."
"Wait!"
"I'll get the blueprints and see how those fishermen weave large fishing nets! The Northern European region is quite barren, but there are plenty of raw materials that can be used to make fishing nets!"
The ancient Catman Tribe was quite primitive.
But the outstanding scholars of the Middle Ages in Europe were all under Duncan's command; not to mention producing leading-edge things, organizing and reproducing existing knowledge could enable the Catman Tribe to leap hundreds of years in development, but it would be troublesome for Duncan to consider how to bring and teach it back to the Catmen.
A dragon, imparting knowledge.
Duncan always had a feeling it looked somewhat unserious.
The scholar's idea seemed to inspire others; soon a mature, gentle female architect stood up and said, "Governor, sir."
"If it's for the Northern European region, stone buildings are clearly unsuitable."
"Use wood."
"Hold on, I'll quickly draw suitable structural diagrams."
"As long as someone has a little architectural knowledge, they can learn how to do it!"
The mathematicians present collectively fell silent.
Very soon, one person stood up and said, "First comes survival, then development."
"Development requires tools!"
"I'll look for what tools are simpler now."
Compared to the wild Northern Europe, the area around the Mediterranean was much more developed; these scholars, given a little prompt, immediately conceived ideas.
There was even a young Druid tentatively raising his hand, coming over cautiously, "Governor, sir."
"Can Celtic Runes be used? Can Rune Language be used?"
He was sent by the Druid Order; after a comprehensive selection, they finally picked a few smart young individuals to come over.
Science and knowledge! Why can't Druids learn it?
Hmm?
This idea was very interesting.
Duncan asked, "What ideas do you have?"
The young Druid lowered his voice, saying, "Fishing, livestock farming, agriculture."
"Can we set up a Druid's Circle?"
After all, no one has heard of Druids starving to death in the wild; if it did happen, it would be utterly laughable and likely become an eternal joke in the Druid profession.
In many later fantasy works, the survival skills of Druids are top-notch, naturally adept at wilderness survival.
Druids originated in Celtic culture, representing the Celtic belief in natural philosophy; many world Druidic systems are variants of Celtic culture.
Middle Ages Druids could be considered the source of this system.
The witchcraft system here is messy, but it doesn't mean it's entirely useless; it's just complicated to learn, though some aspects are quite simple. Druid rites don't require a high threshold; as long as one can resonate with nature, it's enough. Strictly speaking, Druids belonged to the late fishing and nomadic stage culture; only after Duncan's improvement did it become an agrarian-era Druid culture.
Odin's Rune Language is considered relatively systematic sorcery knowledge of this era, but it's difficult to learn, and while Duncan could understand it, learning was challenging.
Ordinary people cannot use that mysterious knowledge because they don't have mana.
But what about the Catmen?
In the world of the number two human form, the vast majority of intelligent creatures possess mana!
Is a lagging sorcery system completely unusable?
Only trying would tell.
Some of the Ancient Greek knowledge and technology certainly can't surpass the Elf Empire, but as long as it was advanced for the Catman Tribe, that would be more than sufficient.
Sometimes, changing the perspective gives the feeling of immense possibilities in a flash!
Duncan, chin in hand with thoughts flying everywhere, muttered, "Playing like this, there won't be enough population."
"The Catman Tribe only has a few people."
"At least a thousand people are needed to make it work."
"Moreover, when I impart knowledge, technology, and crafts, won't I end up creating something bizarre?"
Hard to say.
This is clearly not something a serious giant dragon should be doing.
Pillaging villages and kidnapping princesses, sowing seeds everywhere, would be much more legitimate than doing these things.
