Chapter 316: Forest Tribe

Hearing the other party accurately call the name of their planet, Shen Cheng knew that what the humanoid creature said before about knowing something about them was not false.

"Yes, we are creatures from the planet Earth. We call ourselves humans. My name is Chen Cheng, and I am the commander-in-chief of this unit."

Perhaps his attitude made the creature feel kindly, so they introduced themselves, "We are from the Forest Tribe of this Thousand Spears Forest. My name is Saben."

Chen Cheng showed no fear and walked up to the people who claimed to be from the forest tribe. The forest tribe member opposite him, named Saben, was two heads taller than him. He extended his hand and said, "This is the etiquette of our race. You can also extend this hand to shake mine."

Saben glanced at Shen Cheng, who had a very different skin color and even appearance from him, and stretched out his hand. Shen Cheng first held his hand, then moved it up and down before letting go.

After letting go, Saben looked at his right hand, seeming a little confused about this etiquette.

Chen Cheng: "I think, if you feel at ease, you can come to our tent. Of course, we don't mind going to your residence."

Saben looked at Lu Jiu who was looking at them, "Maybe you can come to our tribe, but only five people can come, and she must come." He pointed at Lu Jiu.

The other captains were a little anxious. Even if these alien intelligent creatures did not attack them, it would still be very dangerous for them if only five people went to their territory.

“Commander Shen…” Yu You wanted to say something, but was stopped by Shen Cheng.

"Okay, five of us will go to your place."

Sa Ben had no other expression, just looked at Lu Jiu quietly. Seeing this, Shen Jufeng pressed Lu Jiu against his chest to block his view.

Soon Chen Cheng decided on the five people. In addition to the designated Lu Jiu, Shen Jufeng must go, and then there are Shen Cheng, Ding Ying and Cheng Chen.

Now Yu You is waiting here on behalf of the commander. If something really happens to them, Yu You will officially become the commander and lead the troops.

Saben seemed to know that they also had the ability to fly. After they decided on the number of people, they turned around and flapped their wings to move forward.

And the five of them followed immediately.

Although Chen Cheng looked fearless in following the Forest Tribe, he was not without any defenses. For example, he brought one of the HY heavy weapons with him to deal with emergencies at any time.

Not to mention that Lu Jiu is also in here. If she is equipped with a magic suit, the range and effect of the skill "Ice Thousand Miles" will be even stronger.

They flew for a while, then Saben led the other tribesmen to land on the ground, and Lu Jiu and the others followed.

This place seemed no different from anywhere else in the forest, but Saben raised his hand and waved a dark brown stick-like object a few times.

It was as if this action had waved something away, and a hole appeared in front of them that was large enough for one person to pass through. On the opposite side, there were forest tribes coming and going. It seemed that this was their home.

Lu Jiu sighed that it was no wonder that she and Shen Jufeng had walked a long way in the forest but had not encountered any place similar to the residence of the forest tribe.

So it is hidden in this way. It turns out that alien planets are different from their Earth.

The five people followed Saben and the others in, and immediately the surrounding forest tribes looked over, but their eyes were full of curiosity and no malice.

Shen Cheng also breathed a sigh of relief. As long as there was no real malicious intent, then things wouldn't be that troublesome.

Lu Jiu also looked at the buildings here. There were the same trees as outside, but other flowers and plants could also be seen. The residents here all lived in particularly tall trees.

A house with a pointed roof was built on two thick adjacent tree trunks. It looked very simple.

Saben bent down slightly and entered the house. They followed him in one after another. After entering, they found that there was a light and fresh fragrance inside.

There was a forest tribe member sitting in the room. One could tell at a glance that he was old. Compared to the other members with strong muscles and tight skin, this one had no muscles at all, his skin was loose, and his face also showed signs of aging.

"Chief, I have brought them here, and that little girl actually has the talent of the Ice Clan."

Lu Jiu immediately noticed the words "talent" of the Ice Clan. It seems that there is more than one group of intelligent creatures on this planet, there are other groups.

The clan leader looked at Lu Jiu with bright eyes. Judging from his eyes, he didn't look like an old man at all.

"Sit down." The old patriarch pointed at the cushion.

Lu Jiu imitated the local forest tribe and sat cross-legged on the mat, which was surprisingly soft.

The tribe leader smiled and said, "We still have to wait for another tribe member. Perhaps when he comes, you will understand why we know who you are."

Chen Cheng's expression remained unchanged. "Okay, but we really don't have any bad intentions here. We just want to find out why our planet merged with yours."

The old patriarch nodded, "I know, Sack told me."

The Sak he was talking about was the forest tribe member who had been monitoring Lu Jiu and the others.

After the old patriarch said this, Shen Cheng was no longer anxious to ask other questions, but waited for the other tribe member he was talking about.

·

Soon there was movement outside. Lu Jiu heard the forest tribes outside speaking a language that they couldn't understand. It seemed that not all forest tribes would consume crystals to learn their language.

The sound was getting closer and closer to them, and soon Lu Jiu felt someone walking towards the house. Soon someone came in, perhaps it was the tribesman that the old patriarch mentioned.

But when they saw the face of this so-called tribesman, Lu Jiu and the other Earthlings were all stunned. The person who came was undoubtedly an Earthling.

and……

"Manager?!" Lu Jiu exclaimed.

What luck! She actually saw the NPC, the manager of the tailor shop in her city-state, here. No, maybe not an NPC.

The tailor shop manager stroked his mustache and said, "City Lord, long time no see."

Lu Jiu's mind was a mess. He used to think that these NPC store managers were too smart and seemed to be people with their own thoughts. He didn't expect that they were intelligent creatures from the planet Gutas.

"You, are you guys..."

The store manager, who originally had the appearance of an Earthling, instantly transformed into a forest tribe member, but this was his original appearance.

Lu Jiu opened her mouth slightly, still looking shocked.

When the three captains nearby heard what Lu Jiu said, they roughly understood who this person was. It was the NPC who was the manager of the official store that each city-state could hire.

However, no matter how they thought about it, they never imagined that NPCs would be intelligent creatures on this planet.

In the past, the official thought that the store manager NPCs were all artificial intelligence created by the system, but the other party’s technological level was higher than theirs, so these NPCs looked so much like real people.

The NPC who was the store manager sat down and said, "Allow me to introduce myself to you, the city lord. My name is Sanu, and I'm from the forest tribe."

Lu Jiu blinked a few times, then asked, "Are all the official store managers from here..."

Sanu understood what she wanted to ask, "No, just some individual shops."

Shen Jufeng also understood why that Sak said he knew something about them. "So it was you who had been passing on information to your own people. No wonder she didn't react much when she saw us."
