Let 'Melon Face' try several times repeatedly.
'Melon Face' said, "It's far worse than a bow and arrow."
Ma Lin said, "It's true, but it's easy to make."
A spear-thrower is inconvenient for throwing those long spears that can be used in close combat; the spears are heavy, and the flying distance is short.
One must throw slender, long darts with tail feathers.
However, whether in terms of accuracy or range, it is much poorer than a bow and arrow.
Ma Lin explained that there are some tribes in the world that don't know how to make bows and arrows, so they use spear-throwers to hunt, allowing them to still stand at the top of the food chain.
"A bow with enough force is difficult to make, but everyone can easily make a spear-thrower. The darts do not need to be as straight and smooth as arrows. A group of people with a spear-thrower in hand can kill beasts from forty or fifty meters away."
