Chapter 623 One Batch at a Time 1 (2/2)
”I am Black Star, an emissary from the galaxy…” Han Xiao then briefly explained what was going on with 'appropriate' changes.
He threw the entire blame of massacring the Subterranean Mutants to the Sunils, and Han Xiao described the Sunils as though they were demons. He then described himself as someone willing to help their race and a friendly emissary who was convincing the Sunils to stop their massacre. He then promised that he could stop the slaughter on the condition that they surrendered and moved out of this planet.
To allow the mutants to understand what was going on, Han Xiao had also briefly mentioned some basic knowledge of the universe and some of the benefits that they could receive.
The efficiency of a mental connection was extremely high, and the entire race fell into deep thought. It was as though they had just listened to the preaching of a heavenly book.
To the galactic residents, what Han Xiao had just said was no more than common sense. However, it completely changed the view that the mutants had of the world. In their eyes, the underground world was their entire world, and the planet and galaxy were completely new concepts.
The Subterranean Mutants viewed those who came from above ground as their enemies, and the Sunils treated them the same.
A mutant that seemed to be the leader of the tribe then took the initiative to communicate with Han Xiao.
”We are willing to surrender. Please do not hurt us anymore.”
Almost all the mutants knelt down on the ground and displayed their intent to submit.
The tribe leader treated Han Xiao extremely respectfully. The words that came out from Han Xiao's mouth far exceeded the boundaries of his knowledge and was far too shocking to him. Because of their undeveloped intelligence, they treated Han Xiao as a god-like figure and began worshiping him.
The persuasion process was far easier than he had imagined.
But thinking back, it was not too surprising. The intelligence of the Subterranean Mutants was no different from children. They did not understand any complex feelings such as glory or humiliation, and their view of hatred was also extremely basic.
The Subterranean Mutants had not grown out of their bestial nature. Beasts that were afraid would reveal signs of submission. This tribe that had been massacred by Herlous was already thoroughly frightened.
The Subterranean Mutants did not have any natural predators, and they could feed on the rocks underground without fighting with each other. Thus, they lived in peace and rarely experienced battle. At the very most, they would have small conflicts with other tribes. As such, their race was extremely simple.
The only downside was that they were far too ugly. It was probably because the underground world was far too dark, and no one could even see their appearance. Thus, they just grew as they wished.
With the ability to communicate, Han Xiao could now understand the structure of their civilization. After a series of questions, Han Xiao finally had a clear understanding of the Subterranean Mutant race.
The Subterranean Mutants knew that there were other nests near them, and they would occasionally fight each other to snatch Prophecy Stones. The structure of their society was at the caveman stage, and every tribe had a tribe leader with the development of every tribe being different. There were some with more intelligence and others that were more boorish. Their culture was starting to sprout into many different kinds of flowers.
If they developed according to their original path, the Subterranean Mutants would take many more years before the various tribes combined into a civilization with intellect and began forming kingdoms. With his interference, their development speed will be shortened by thousands of years.
”What do we need to do?” the tribe leader asked obediently.
Han Xiao thought for a while before saying, ”Convince the tribes in this region and disseminate my intention. From now on, you will be my emissary, and if you complete my mission, go to the cave nearby to find the guests from the surface. They will not harm you.”
”Woah, this is great!”
”They won't attack us anymore!”
The entire tribe broke out in cheers.
After giving a series of instructions and ensuring that the tribe knew their mission, Han Xiao was prepared to leave. He then realized something and asked the tribe leader, ”Right, what is your name?”
”What is a name?” The tribe leader was puzzled.
Han Xiao could only helplessly explain, ”It is a way to address you to allow others to know that this word represents you. For example, I am Black Star, and Black Star is me…”
The tribe leader nodded, looking as though he understood what Han Xiao said.
”Sigh, alright. I shall give you a name…” Han Xiao then looked at Feidin beside him and immediately had an idea. ”Since you are so good looking, you shall be called Chen Xing.”
Feidin's mental energy immediately began fluctuating wildly, and Chen Xing who was inside him began roaring, ”I will definitely kill you! Do you hear me‽ I will definitely kill you!”
The ugly Subterranean Mutants sharing the same name as her was something that Chen Xing would never be able to accept.
Feidin had a helpless look on his face. ”Black Star, don't tease her so much.”
”Tsk tsk, the two of you are indeed of one body. You are so protective of her.” Han Xiao clicked his tongue before saying to the tribe leader, ”Okay, ignored what I just said. You shall be called Germinal.”
There should not be anyone jumping out from their graves to disagree with him.
”Germinal…” the tribe leader muttered to himself before suddenly crying out with joy. ”I have a name!”
”As for your tribe…” Han Xiao stroked his chin. ”Let's just call it the Germinal Tribe.”
Wait… does this mean that this fellow is the Germinal Leader?
Seeing the overjoyed tribe leader, Han Xiao had a strange look on his face.
