Super Gene Hunting Ground
Chapter 687: Are You Trying to Take My Life? (3rd Update)
The King of the Savages looked at Yang Xiao,
with a smile on his face,
he simply couldn't imagine how this young man could be capable of fighting the Witch Star people and saving the Savage tribes.
For many years, the King of the Savages had tried various possible methods,
but none of the methods could save the fate of the Savages, he could only watch helplessly as the population of the Savages continuously decreased, their territory relentlessly shrinking.
In the entire Witch Star, the Savages had been squeezed into just over twenty such Primitive Forests, barely surviving.
Compared to over a hundred years ago, the population of Savages on the Purple Origin Star had reduced by more than ninety percent, this was an extremely bloody historical process.
Moreover, they all knew that when the people of Witch Star needed to mine here, he would be driven away, slaughtered, at that time, even the remaining Savages would be killed.
It was just a matter of sooner or later.
Yang Xiao smiled faintly,
"Why fight against the people of Witch Star? There are many ways to survive, if we can't fight, then let's cooperate!"
"Cooperate?"
The King of the Savages stared blankly at Yang Xiao.
In the mind of the Savages, there was no option to cooperate with the people of Witch Star.
Take the King of the Savages, for example, his arm was chopped off by the War God, his son had died in battle over a decade ago.
Apart from the hatred of encroachment of territory, every Savage harbored a blood feud for family members killed by people from Witch Star,
to cooperate with the killers of their own kind?
That's impossible!
There simply isn't such an option in their minds!
"You also know that the scientific and magical civilization power of the Witch Star people is too strong, for the Savages, resisting is definitely a dead end, the more intense the resistance, the quicker the extinction,
the only way to survive,
is to cooperate!"
King of the Savages: "?"
"I also know, that you Savages and Witch Star people have deep enmities, but what can it do?
If cooperation can let your Savage tribes live on, a hundred years, two hundred years, or even generations after generations, wouldn't you want that?"
"Buzz!"
A buzzing sound in the mind of the King of the Savages.
For over a hundred years, his mind had been clouded by the dark clouds of hatred, often leading the Savage troops to sneak attacks on the bases of the Witch Star people, killing Miners, destroying mines, and fighting with the Witch Star people.
They had become accustomed to this life state of constantly seeking opportunities for revenge, living covertly.
Yang Xiao's words, completely stemming from a thought process they had never considered, was like clearing the clouds to see the sun, instantly enlightening his mind!
Exactly, compared to the entire Savage tribes surviving generation after generation, what hatred could temporarily not be set aside?
The King of the Savages looked at Yang Xiao, somewhat excited.
"You, tell me, how, how to cooperate?"
"The Witch Star people occupy Purple Origin Star, driving away Savages, killing Savages, for what?"
"Of course for the Purple Origin Crystal Stone, this is the source of Energy they use for Genetic Evolution."
"Exactly, since they need the Crystal Stone, why can't we Savages cooperate with them in mining? Help them mine the Purple Origin Crystal Stone."
"Help them mine Purple Origin Crystal Stones?"
The Wild Man King felt as if his past hundred years had been lived in vain, hearing for the first time that someone suggested wild men help Witch Star people mine ores.
"Witch Star people are currently in a civil war, several empires are fighting each other, they are now lacking both crystal stones and miners, otherwise, they wouldn't be capturing people from other planets to mine,
if we wild men could help the Witch Star people mine, turning from opponents to helpers overnight, would they still need to kill wild men?"
"But, if it continues this way, crystal stones will one day be completely mined out."
"That's even better. If the crystal stones on Purple Origin Star are completely mined out, this planet would become meaningless to the Witch Star people, they might leave Purple Origin Star immediately and mine on other planets. Then wouldn't your wild men have gained peace?"
"But, crystal stones are also the energy source for our wild men's genetic evolution, all the animals and plants on this planet, because of Purple Origin Crystal Stones, undergo genetic evolution and become increasingly stronger,
if there are no crystal stones, all these animals and plants would stop their genetic evolution."
"So what? It just means that genetic evolution will slow down and stabilize. Haven't we humans lived well throughout the tens of thousands of years?"
Silence!
The Wild Man King fell into silence.
Today, Yang Xiao's questions shone like a sudden light into the dark areas of the Wild Man King's thoughts, making him feel reborn, both excited and overwhelmed.
He needed time to calm his agitated emotions.
After a moment, the Wild Man King, with his white hair fluttering, his eyes emitting a gentle glow, looked at Yang Xiao.
"Yang Xiao?"
"Yes, my name is Yang Xiao."
"Mr. Yang, cough, I want to know, what's your specific plan, and what benefits it brings you, what do you want to gain?"
A person wouldn't go through such great troubles, risking life, to do something completely meaningless for themselves.
Yang Xiao gave a faint smile and said:
"I help you, mainly for myself, because I am currently just a miner, I want to survive, live a little longer, I even want to return to Earth, to live well with my wife, friends, and family. This is a desire to survive, can you understand?"
Wild Man King nodded, because his mood and Yang Xiao's were the same, both struggling to survive, only that the Wild Man King had despaired and gave up, while Yang Xiao was still tirelessly finding ways, no matter how bleak the hope, no matter the risks involved.
To save himself, to save Lan Xin, Qin Yu, Huang Wen, Xia Luo, Long Yongjun, and other good friends, to save Earth, this conviction had never disappeared from his heart.
"First, I want those under your command to completely stop opposing the Witch Star people, give up attacking Witch Star people's mines,"
"I can do that."
Wild Man King nodded.
"Second, I want to set up a mining operation here, I'll collaborate with a few Witch Star bosses, in a private capacity, to mine here, providing crystal stones for the Witch Star people, to gain their recognition."
Wild Man King hesitated for a while, then gritted his teeth and said:
"I, I can do that too."
"Also, I don't have miners, I need wild men to act as miners, to go down into the mines and dig."
"No, that's absolutely not okay, that's not possible, you're asking for my life!"
Wild Man King suddenly screamed as if he was bitten by a snake.
Standing outside the door, Ah Rui, Qing Mu, and Ah Bao suddenly heard such a loud voice "you're asking for my life", everyone was startled,
with a clang, they kicked down the door and charged in.
Ah Rui yelled loudly:
"Villain, don't hurt my grandfather, I'll kill you!"
