Chapter 142: Chapter 141: Green Demon Star Is Not Simple
"Moreover, the area below 4,500 meters in the Underground World is an absolute forbidden zone. There are many incredible existences down there that are beyond our imagination.
"Fortunately, those existences are only adapted to the environment down there, so they never come up. These mountain ranges are filled with formidable Mutated Beasts. Some travel in packs, while others are solitary. I once saw a mutated tiger that was seven or eight meters long and five or six meters tall.
"The Alliance’s Mechas are like paper in front of those tigers; they have absolutely no Defense. Only a Warship’s Laser Cannon can deal with them. However, those tigers are extremely fast. They retreat into their caves immediately after attacking.
"Furthermore, it seems these mutated tigers are quite valuable. The Alliance hasn’t used Weapons like Rail Cannons to attack them!" Third Huang explained continuously.
Hearing Third Huang’s explanation reminded Yang Bo of something. In the Mecha game, the evaluation of Mutants wasn’t very high. Moreover, the main objective in the Mecha game was to hunt Mutated Beasts for rewards. In other words, the Mutated Beasts were the main focus on this planet. The Mutants actually weren’t that important.
"This information is very useful to me. Do any of you know other places with formidable Mutated Beasts? Tell me everything," Yang Bo said straightforwardly.
Everyone immediately started talking over one another. Yang Bo jotted down the details: super-sized mutated tigers, gigantic mutated snakes, mutated gorillas, and so on.
"Actually, regarding the surface cities and territories, you all should primarily use them for breeding livestock or farming. As for living arrangements, I suggest everyone continue residing in the caves," Yang Bo said after gathering the information. "It’s hard to say what the Alliance will do. After all, we don’t have any insiders there. If everyone moves up to the surface, it would be disastrous if the Alliance wipes us all out with a Rail Cannon.
"Moreover, two or three tribes can work together to build a city. A city requires at least a city wall and other infrastructure; a single tribe definitely won’t be able to build it alone.
"A single city can radiate influence over a vast surrounding area, which can be used for farming or breeding.
"Think about it. Hundreds of thousands or even millions of square kilometers—can your tribe alone defend such a massive territory? And not just above ground, but underground as well?" Yang Bo knew very well that building a city was no easy feat.
"That’s very true. Originally, we planned to have the Alliance build Metal walls for us. However, many animals on this planet like to gnaw on Metal, so we’ll still have to build them out of stone," someone agreed.
"We also can’t adopt the Alliance’s Laser Cannon defense system. After all, the system belongs to them. Who knows if it might turn around and attack us one day?" another added.
"I think this is a good idea. A city needs at least a few hundred people stationed there, and our underground tribal homes still need guarding." Some of the leaders from the weaker tribes felt this suggestion was viable.
"You all should discuss this among yourselves before we talk about territories," Yang Bo spoke up again. "I don’t think you need to pursue overly large territories. It’s actually better to stick to the areas you’re familiar with. Even if you were given a massive piece of unfamiliar land, would you dare go there?"
"Alright, we’ll discuss it further." Third Huang felt he could build a city independently, but most tribes lacked the strength to do so, primarily due to a shortage of manpower.
Yang Bo led a group of Mutants straight to the mountaintop and waved toward the starry sky.
Soon, an unmanned Warplane came whistling from the distance and hovered in front of Yang Bo and the others.
"May I ask if you need something?" The female Captain in space looked at Yang Bo’s group. It was this exact group of people causing the Alliance to argue endlessly internally.
"We came to inform you that the remnant members of the Ash Organization tried to rescue the people we captured, and we wiped them all out," Yang Bo stated.
Hearing this, the female Captain could only say, "We will report this up the chain of command."
"Also, could you give us a distribution map of the Mutated Beasts? We want to avoid them as much as possible when building our tribal cities. After all, these Mutated Beasts are exceptionally important to the Alliance," Yang Bo requested, scheming to use the Alliance once more. The military definitely had a more detailed distribution map of the Mutated Beasts. "Otherwise, if these Mutated Beasts are zoned into our territories, it will lead to conflicts, and who knows how the Alliance’s laws will rule on that."
"Understood. I will report this as well!" The female Captain couldn’t make the decision herself at this moment.
"We have over two hundred Pirates here, including two Pirate Leaders. We’d like to trade these guys for some supplies. How about it?" Yang Bo knew this Fleet Commander definitely despised the Pirates to the core, so this was a good opportunity to offer a gesture of goodwill.
The female Captain was somewhat surprised to hear this, and her breathing soon grew heavy with excitement. "Deal!"
"We’ve already made them give full confessions. After all, it’s a bit more convenient for us to handle things on our end. We’ll hand these over to you as well." Yang Bo knew that even if the Pirates were sent to the Warship, those scumbags would still retain a lot of rights when facing the Alliance’s legal sanctions. It was simply better to let the Mutants interrogate them first. Those who were willing to talk would talk, and those who refused would be subjected to harsher methods directly.
"Thank you." The female Captain felt an inexplicable trace of goodwill toward the Mutant in front of her and voiced her gratitude.
"Discuss among yourselves quickly about what supplies you want," Yang Bo then said to Third Huang and the others.
Third Huang and the rest were thrilled. It should be noted that many tribal leaders used to live in civilized society and were still deeply attached to many of its goods—things this planet simply didn’t have.
The personnel in the Fleet were stunned when they saw the supplies the Mutants requested. The list included beverages, coffee, cigarettes, soda, and some even asked for sofas.
Fortunately, the Warship had a relatively ample stockpile of these items, so they conveniently delivered the supplies to the Mutants while transporting the Pirates back.
One-Eyed and Baldy, the two Pirate Leaders, looked absolutely terrible. They hadn’t expected to be captured by the Alliance this time. The two had spent the past few days living in constant fear because the Mutants demanded they honestly confess their crimes. If they didn’t speak, they were immediately subjected to brutal methods.
The two confessed to every bad deed they had committed since childhood. They didn’t dare hold anything back, because the Mutants wouldn’t bother talking about human rights or laws with them. Not only did they have to speak, but they also had to write it down themselves. If the Mutants were even slightly dissatisfied, they would be dragged aside and dealt with severely.
"So it’s the two infamous Pirate Leaders." The female Captain looked at the two men wearing collars, feeling indescribably satisfied.
"We demand to act as cooperating witnesses! We demand lawyers! We demand to be given basic human rights treatment, and we also demand protection for our families!" the two Pirate Leaders immediately yelled out. They had to turn state’s evidence; since they had confessed everything, many powerful and wealthy figures were now implicated.
The female Captain looked at her many furious subordinates and nodded. "That’s fine, but because our Warship is damaged, sometimes the surveillance systems might malfunction..."
"No, this is a crime!" The two Pirate Leaders shrieked in terror as they were dragged away by the Warship’s soldiers.
Yang Bo, meanwhile, was pondering, "I should go check on Iron Bull, and take the opportunity to level up my Battering Skill. If only Iron Bull could raise cows for me in the future..."
