Chapter 448

Su Xiao looked at the elderly indigenous creature. The other party clearly wanted to pull him into the indigenous camp; camp favorability had already appeared.

The world introduction mentioned a point before: avoid communicating with Void creatures, because Void creatures are mostly unstable structures.

Those Zerg were clearly Void creatures; this could already be seen from the other party's data.

As for whether the red-skinned indigenous creatures were Void creatures, Su Xiao couldn't be sure yet. Looking at the data, they didn't seem like it. These red-skinned indigenous creatures should be the natives of this planet, and the Void Zerg might be foreign invaders.

Moreover, not communicating with Void creatures was just one side of the story from Reincarnation Paradise; it could be taken as a warning. Su Xiao had to verify the specific situation himself.

Since the possibility of communication with the red-skinned indigenous creatures had appeared, Su Xiao would of course seize the opportunity, but he also had to be vigilant; he had killed several red-skinned indigenous creatures in the war.

"How to leave the Red Earth area."

Su Xiao's most concerned issue now was the retreat path. Even if he communicated with the red-skinned indigenous creatures, he had to prepare a retreat path first.

Su Xiao spoke, and the elderly indigenous creature wearing feather ornaments walked forward.

"Foreign adventurer, just keep walking in the direction of the sun to leave the Red Earth area."

"The direction of the sun?"

Su Xiao felt there was a problem with this statement.

"Yes, the direction of the sun. Everything we have is guided by the sun. Of course, this requires a small tool."

The elderly indigenous creature untied the ornament from his waist; it was an item that looked like a compass, somewhat similar to Jack's compass in Pirates of the Caribbean.

Su Xiao guessed that this might be a tool similar to a compass.

"State your price."

The other party's meaning was already very clear: food and water could be given for free, but this compass could not.

"Foreign powerhouse, you can call me Baal. May I ask what your name is?"

The old indigenous creature Baal gave people the feeling of an old fox. Although he was calm on the surface, he was actually probing Su Xiao's background and didn't mention the price of that compass at all.

"Bai Ye."

He used a pseudonym as a matter of habit. He was used to the name Bai Ye. The reason Su Xiao used this name was to reduce the sense of incongruity.

If he used a name like Zhang Tie Dan, once he did something big in a derived world, other contractors would know immediately; the name would be too incongruous.

"Bai Ye, hmm~, why not come to my tribe to rest for a while?"

Old Baal was overflowing with enthusiastic smiles, his face covered in numerous wrinkles, just like a blooming chrysanthemum.

Su Xiao hesitated for a moment, looking around at the number of red-skinned indigenous creatures.

There were thousands of indigenous creatures around. If he entered the other party's tribe and was surrounded, it would be troublesome.

However, the current favorability was: Friendly (21/500). As long as no huge changes occurred, the red-skinned indigenous creatures wouldn't surround and attack Su Xiao.

Even if they wanted to surround and attack Su Xiao, the favorability would drop rapidly before that, thus serving as a warning effect.

A red gemstone slipped from his sleeve into his palm; it was a Philosopher's Stone. With this Philosopher's Stone, he could manufacture alchemy bombs and potions at any time.

He decided to take a trip to the indigenous tribe. It was clearly impossible to snatch that compass from the indigenous creatures by force, but he could get it by other means.

From Old Baal's tone, one could tell that the other party could give him this compass, it just required paying some price.

Old Baal walked in front, followed by dozens of indigenous creatures.

The location of the tribe was somewhat far. Su Xiao rode Bubu Wang for half an hour and still hadn't seen where Old Baal's tribe was.

This was normal. No one would fight near their base camp. If a war happened near the base camp, the red-skinned indigenous creatures wouldn't be far from extinction.

Forty minutes later, a wisp of cooking smoke appeared ahead. Su Xiao noticed that the indigenous creatures nearby quickened their pace, seemingly not having returned here for a long time.

"Duta Meng, Kasete Seni! (Unknown language)"

A woman's loud shout came from afar, and the tribe not far away began to become lively.

This was a large tribe. Everywhere he looked, stone houses stood in great numbers. Although these stone houses were simple, they could shield them from wind and rain.

The dozens of indigenous creatures behind Old Baal shouted excitedly, but none of them dared to walk in front of Old Baal.

"Tete Ma Bai (Unknown language)."

Seemingly having received Old Baal's approval, those indigenous creatures rushed toward the tribe with their big bare feet.

Several hundred female indigenous creatures walked out of the tribe. Some of these female indigenous creatures were happy, while others were disappointed.

From the demeanor of these female indigenous creatures, Su Xiao guessed that this tribe had implemented a monogamous system or a similar system.

Su Xiao also discovered a strange point: all the female indigenous creatures were carrying several young children.

Some female indigenous creatures were holding two in their arms, carrying two on their backs, and followed by five or six behind them.

Judging from their age, these children were divided into three age groups, which meant that these female indigenous creatures could give birth to two to three children per pregnancy.

"Tui Yi Ge Rui Na (Unknown language)."

A young male indigenous creature ran to Old Baal's side, his chest puffed out, seemingly very proud.

Old Baal smiled and patted the young indigenous creature's shoulder.

Su Xiao couldn't understand the indigenous language. Old Baal noticed this and helped Su Xiao translate.

"His wife gave birth to fifteen babies. This is a true warrior; his bloodline is very good."

"Huh?"

Su Xiao thought he had misheard. Could humans really give birth to fifteen babies at the same time? Although these red-skinned indigenous creatures had strong physical qualities, their overall structure was the same as humans.

"You don't seem to believe it. I'll take you to see."

It seemed that Su Xiao's questioning was something that couldn't be tolerated; even the old fox Baal had an angry look on his face.

"No need, let's talk about business."

"No, this is business."

Old Baal looked at the young indigenous creature beside him and said a lot of gibberish.

The young indigenous creature's face turned red, he glared at Su Xiao angrily for a while, and turned to rush into the tribe.

Before long, the young indigenous creature brought a female indigenous creature out of the tribe. Both of them were holding several young children, adding up to exactly fifteen.

"How about it? I said fifteen, and it's fifteen. Look at this strength, the size of the skeleton; they will definitely be outstanding warriors in the future."

Old Baal seemed to have transformed into a manager of some pig farm, introducing to Su Xiao how excellent the breeding pigs in their farm were.

It was no wonder Old Baal and the young indigenous creature were like this. The red-skinned indigenous creatures and the Void Zerg had been at war for hundreds of years. The consistent style of the Zerg was to swarm; if the red-skinned indigenous creatures didn't have a means to respond, it would be a dead end.

The response method of the red-skinned indigenous creatures was to give birth. Female red-skinned indigenous creatures could give birth to 2 to 5 offspring per pregnancy; this was just the normal number.

Female indigenous creatures started having children at the age of 16, and this process continued until between the ages of 30 and 35. One could imagine how many children this could produce.

Relying on their strong bodies and fertility, the Asenman Tribe withstood the Zerg's attacks and launched a counterattack.

A race that could survive in the Red Earth area wouldn't be so easily exterminated.

Not only that, the Asenman Tribe also had an unknown means. That means could produce stronger warriors, but the side effects were also obvious.

Losing most of their senses, becoming bloodthirsty, cold, and dull.

Su Xiao had already fought against the products of this means.
