~7 min read 1,343 words

As the words fell, someone immediately stepped forward to help Yong up and walked toward the back.

Ye Cang and the others followed closely behind, and after passing through a winding cave passage, the group arrived at another cavern.

This cavern had very obvious signs of being excavated by hand, the floor was covered with animal skins, and there were ventilation holes on the walls.

Yong sat down on the animal skins with a thud, then stretched out in a big, long stretch.

"Ah... it's been a long time since I've had such a good time, it's just, I didn't beat you guys, hahaha!"

"It's also a bit of a pity that I didn't get to spar with you, since you are the leader!"

Ye Cang smiled after hearing this.

"If you want to spar with me, there will be plenty of opportunities for that in the future, no need to rush."

"By the way, leader of the Yong Tribe, you..."

Before the words were finished, Yong interrupted Ye Cang directly.

"Just call me Yong."

"Alright, Yong," Ye Cang said, "Let me reintroduce myself. I am Ye Cang, the Chief Engineer from Huaxia in the Solar System."

"These are all Super Soldiers of Huaxia. My purpose for coming here is simple, and that is to establish diplomatic relations with all friendly civilizations in the Galaxy."

"In order to resist the future invasion of the Zerg."

Yong didn't quite understand what Ye Cang said.

What Galaxy, what Super Soldier, and what Solar System—he couldn't understand any of it.

But Yong understood Ye Cang's meaning.

He is called Ye Cang, he comes from a tribe called Huaxia, and he himself is that tribe's... uh... leader?

He wasn't too sure about that, but it didn't matter; at least in his own mind, he was a leader.

And then he wanted to form an alliance with him to fight an enemy called the Zerg.

That was about the gist of it.

As for forming an alliance, Yong was not opposed to it.

His own tribe had formed alliances with other tribes many times.

The only thing that made Yong curious was that enemy called the Zerg.

To be able to make a leader like Ye Cang travel such a long distance to find people to form alliances with everywhere, just how powerful must this enemy be?

He loved fighting against powerful enemies the most!

After thinking this through, Yong immediately patted his chest and indicated there was no problem.

"Isn't it just forming an alliance? Small problem!"

"However."

Speaking to this point, Yong revealed a troubled expression.

"There's no problem with us forming an alliance, after all, your fists are bigger than mine so I have nothing to say, but the other tribes might not be the same."

"The tribes are very far apart from each other; even the closest tribe to the Yong Tribe is a full half-month's journey away, and there are many giant beasts on the road."

"It's hard enough to get over there, let alone form an alliance."

The problem Yong was worried about was not a problem at all for Ye Cang.

What long distances, what giant beasts—none of these were problems!

As long as the Star Gate is set up.

When the time comes for Huaxia to enter, everything can be solved.

"These are problems for you, but they are not problems for me," Ye Cang said.

"Our levels of development are fundamentally different. Right now, I just want to know if you agree to form an alliance with Huaxia and agree to let Huaxia intervene on this planet."

After hearing this, Yong didn't think much and immediately nodded in agreement.

"I agree!"

"However, if you want to officially form an alliance with me, we still have to have one more formal fight, and it has to be you and me."

Ye Cang:...

Has he not had enough of getting beaten up?

With a helpless smile, Ye Cang nodded in agreement.

"Fine."

"In the next two days, the injuries on your body will be mostly healed, you can pick a time to fight me."

"Also, I am a bit curious about your Berserk state."

"Berserk?" Yong looked at Ye Cang, puzzled. "What is Berserk?"

Ye Cang slapped his forehead.

He had forgotten that Yong was a primitive person and didn't understand the meaning of Berserk.

So he explained it a little.

After listening, Yong suddenly realized.

"So that's called Berserk!"

"Speaking of this Berserk... sigh..."

Yong let out a long sigh.

"This is a curse from the heavens! Because of this in the Universe, all the major tribes have lost many excellent hunters."

Subsequently, Yong told the story of Berserk in full detail.

Berserk is a curse from the heavens.

Yong once thought that this curse only existed among the people of his own tribe.

But after he gradually grew strong, strong enough to travel to other tribes alone, he finally understood that every tribe had this curse.

And the situation was much the same everywhere.

People in every tribe were born with the ability to use Berserk; once they were injured or smelled a strong scent of blood, Berserk would be triggered.

Once Berserk was triggered, all bodily functions would increase significantly, but reason would also gradually be lost; in the end, one would either fight until exhausted and die, die from severe injuries, or collapse because the body could not withstand the immense power brought by Berserk.

Very few people could exit the Berserk state on their own.

And Yong was considered one of those who had some control over Berserk.

He could initiate a preliminary Berserk, thereby not losing his self-awareness, but once his eyes turned completely deep red, he could no longer control himself.

As for the others, they lost control the moment their eyes were covered by the blood-red color.

After listening to Yong's explanation, Ye Cang couldn't help but ask: "So, you triggered Berserk just now because you wanted to kill us?"

Yong shook his head vigorously.

"No, I just simply lost my head."

Ye Cang:...

Fine, fine, fine; so it turns out primitive people also have a concept of "losing their head."

However, to be fair, listening to what Yong meant, their Berserk had no upper limit.

They could go Berserk until their bodies could no longer withstand this power.

Tsk!

If that were the case...

Ye Cang had a bold idea... perhaps the Ninth Legion had a future.

Afterwards, Ye Cang chatted with Yong for a while longer, simply understanding the general situation of this planet.

According to what Yong said, there were definitely more than 20 tribes in this world, and there must be many more, it was just that he didn't have the ability to reach some of those tribes.

He had once seen an old man in the east.

The old man was very thin and not tall either.

But the old man's strength was not weak in the slightest.

He could come and go freely among herds of giant beasts, and those giant beasts acted as if they couldn't see him at all.

Furthermore, he had once single-handedly subdued Yong when Yong was in a Berserk state and had lost consciousness.

It was precisely because of this experience that Yong was able to initially control Berserk.

Afterwards, he wanted to learn from the old man.

But he was refused by the old man.

The old man's reason was very simple: his techniques had not yet reached the point where he could teach others.

He needed to travel to more places to perfect his techniques.

When one day, his techniques reached great completion.

He would return.

If Yong had not changed his mind, then he would let Yong learn from him.

Technique.

This was a word invented by the old man.

When Ye Cang heard this, he immediately understood.

To put it in Huaxia terms, this was the prototype of martial arts.

It seems that no matter where it is, there is no shortage of such brilliant geniuses.
