Super Gene Hunting Ground
Chapter 684: Kill this Miner (4 more updates)
Ah Bao and ten tribesmen devoured an entire giant wolf. For them, consuming the wolf's meat meant gaining more Evolution Energy. Moreover, the tribesmen had a huge appetite, as if their stomachs were natural meat grinders, capable of ceaselessly consuming large amounts of food.
"Let's save the other two giant wolf corpses for breakfast tomorrow."
Yang Xiao had originally wanted to put the two giant wolf corpses into the Black Bottle for refinement, but upon hearing this, he could only say:
"Leaving the corpses of the giant wolves outside the cave might attract other monsters. I'll keep them safe for you."
Ah Bao nodded and looked at Yang Xiao's Space Ring with envy.
Yang Xiao went outside the cave, placed the two giant wolf corpses into his Space Ring, then sat by the bonfire and said with a smile:
"Ah Bao, why don't you ask David for some Space Rings? Having these would make things a lot more convenient."
Ah Bao sighed and responded:
"Ah, don't mention it. The Genetic Store refuses to trade with us tribesmen. Besides providing me with a limited supply of Small Blood Pills, David doesn't offer us anything else, not even weapons."
Upon hearing this, Yang Xiao naturally understood that providing the tribesmen with weapons and equipment would significantly enhance their Combat Power, posing a threat to the people of Witch Star.
"If we can successfully cooperate, I will strive to change this situation and try to provide you with a large number of weapons, Elixir Medicines, and equipment, etc."
Ah Bao smiled and said:
"It's probably difficult. At least, the Genetic Store is unlikely to open in our territory."
"We'll consider this matter later. Tomorrow, when we meet the King of the Tribesmen, you need to help me convince him. Don't worry, whatever you want in the future, I will do my best to get it for you."
If Yang Xiao had said this a few hours earlier, Ah Bao might not have believed him so readily.
However, after the battle they had just fought, Ah Bao found himself trustingly Yang Xiao in an indescribable way,
This trust stemmed from the strength Yang Xiao had displayed earlier.
Although Ah Bao was still unclear about Yang Xiao's full capabilities, seeing Yang Xiao's powerful Soul Skills and his ability to help them repel the wolf attack at the King Level Realm made him believe that Yang Xiao was a man with extraordinary potential for development, also carrying a sense of mystery.
Nothing eventful happened overnight. The next morning, everyone woke up, set up a bonfire outside the cave, Yang Xiao took out one of the giant wolf corpses, Ah Bao and ten tribesmen devoured it, and then they all set off towards the tribesman king's tribe within the Primitive Forest Protection Zone.
Along the way, Ah Bao started to speak actively with Yang Xiao about the tribesman's affairs.
"In this Primitive Forest, there are hundreds of tribes scattered around with populations ranging from a few dozen to several hundred per tribe.
The tribe of the King of the Tribesmen is the largest, with over five hundred people, and his Genetic Evolution Level is the highest among us, so everyone has always chosen him as the Great Chief of the forest tribes."
"How old is the King of the Tribesmen?"
"He must be almost two hundred years old, I'm not really sure, heh,"
"What about his Genetic Evolution Level?"
"Empire Middle Level, some say he has already broken through to Empire Level Advanced, but in any case, he can't break through to Emperor Level."
"With so many tribes, can't you consolidate resources to cultivate a super warrior at the Emperor Level?"
"It's not just about the Evolution resources. Resources are one of the problems, but we tribesmen are also restricted by our Innate physiques and genes. Breaking through to Emperor Level is incredibly difficult, and it's not just us; the monsters on Purple Origin Star are facing the same situation. I have yet to see any monster break through to Emperor Level."
...
About an hour later, Ah Bao led Yang Xiao over a mountain and stood at the summit. They looked down to see a valley plain of several dozen square kilometers, with streams and ponds below.
Yang Xiao vaguely saw several thatched houses mingled within the forest.
"This is the valley where the King of the Tribesmen's tribe is located, and also the gathering place for us tribesmen. We gather here once a year,
and normally everyone operates in their own territory. If there's a major issue, they can also come here to seek help from the King of the Tribesmen."
Ah Bao briefly explained, and the group flew down the mountain.
Just as they were about to land, a team of tribesmen flew towards them from afar.
"Who are you? What do you want?"
Ah Bao answered loudly:
"It's me, Ah Bao!"
A team of six savages landed on the ground, and the leader, upon seeing Ah Bao, immediately smiled and said:
"So it's Chief Ah Bao, what brings you here all of a sudden?"
"Captain Qing Mu, I've come to report a matter to the Great Chief of the Savages."
"Oh, then follow me."
The captain named Qing Mu, along with Ah Bao and the others, went through the forest, twisting and turning, until they reached a thatched cottage inside the forest.
When Yang Xiao saw the thatched cottage, his first thought was,
Primitive society is really backward, still living in thatched houses!
"Ah Bao, you guys wait here, I'll go inside and announce our arrival."
After saying that, Qing Mu walked straight to the thatched cottage ahead and knocked on the door,
"Knock, knock, knock!"
Moments later, the wooden door creaked open, and a rather delicate-looking young woman opened the door.
The woman stood at the doorway, glanced over, paused upon seeing Ah Bao and the others, and then her gaze fell upon Yang Xiao, lingering for a moment,
"Uncle Qing Mu, what is the matter? Who are they?"
"Ah, this is Chief Ah Bao, he says he has a matter to discuss with the Great Chief of the Savages."
"Grandfather just went to sleep, maybe you could wait a moment?"
"Is that Ah Bao outside? Since he's here, let them come in."
An elderly voice came from inside the house.
"Ah Rui, the Great Chief of the Savages is asking us to come in,"
said Qing Mu.
The young woman named Ah Rui paused, looked at Yang Xiao, and said lightly:
"Who is he?"
Yang Xiao's appearance and attire were very different from that of the savages,
Typically, savages are tall, powerful, and rugged with dark skin.
But Yang Xiao had handsome features, skin white as jade, and exuded a refined and scholarly aura; after all, he was an educated man, a college student no less, standing among a group of savages, his demeanor was distinctly different.
Ah Bao quickly said:
"He's a human who came from another planet, a miner from a nearby base."
"Human? Miner?"
Ah Rui frowned, her expression suddenly changed, and she said sternly:
"Ah Bao, have you forgotten the rules of our savage tribe?
Our valley absolutely cannot permit humans to enter, yet you brought a miner from the Witch Star mines into our core tribe,
Aren't you afraid that he might reveal our hiding place and lead a large army to attack us?
Uncle Qing Mu, kill this miner immediately!"
Ah Rui roared angrily, her face filled with killing intent as she glared fiercely at Yang Xiao.
Hearing Ah Rui's scolding, Qing Mu immediately spread his palms and pounced towards Yang Xiao.
