Chapter 42 A bit of fate

 The surrendered cave monsters live in the cave at the foot of the mountain in the west, and their leader is a LV13 [cave wizard] named Morimi. Morijian holds a bone staff and has some wisdom.

Except for him, almost all other cave monsters are at LV1 and LV2 levels. Individually, they are better than the tribe villains, but not much.

The cave wizard was very humble in front of Isabel. He briefly told the origin of the cave monster.

“Lord Apostle, cave monsters are actually another branch of human beings.”

“Due to living underground for a long time, the body slowly changed. From generation to generation, it became what it is now. It is not as smart as humans on the surface.”

 The whole thing must start from the previous era.

That was the time when the forest **** still controlled the land.

 The troglodytes were not troglodytes at that time, but a group of followers of the forest god. They believe in the forest god, live in the forest, and associate with birds and beasts.

On weekdays, they plant a variety of mushrooms and rely on mushrooms and berries in the forest for food. Thanks to the blessing of the forest god, the vast and continuous forest always has abundant food, and they also live a stable and natural life.

 Big changes are coming quietly.

With the fall of the forest god, large areas of forest withered and shrank, turning some places into deserts and some into bare mountains.

There are Corruptors and Molts everywhere, fanatic followers and soldiers of the two heretical gods, The Whistler and The Skinner.

 The Corruptor captures and hangs the followers of the Forest God, and then creates new Corruptors. The Slough Monster even peels off the skin of people alive, causing them to die in extreme pain.

To escape the massacre, people in the forest went into caves and fled underground. In order to stay away from the pursuit of those terrifying killers, they kept migrating deeper and came to the dark and cold underground caves.

 In the dark caves, they rely on growing mushrooms and catching insects underground for food.

It was too cold underground, and many people could not adapt to such a life and died of hunger, cold, and disease.

But there are also a small number of people who survive tenaciously.

 They survived the most difficult days and gradually found a way to survive.

 As time passed, their bodies changed: thick body hair grew on their bodies, their hair became longer and longer, and their limbs became strong and wide. They move quickly underground like lizards on all fours.

They transformed from humans into troglodytes, using stone-cut masks to protect their features and intimidate their enemies. They use stones to make spears and axes, make strange noises, and make strange movements to embolden and frighten their prey.

 Among the cave dwellers, some people still haven’t forgotten where they came from. They passed it down by word of mouth, telling future generations not to forget that they came from the ground.

As long as they wait patiently for the gods to calm down, they can return to the ground, stand in the sun again, stop eating bugs, and walk upright.

The caveman family [Mori] led by Morimi has never forgotten the past. The family name Sen is also used to warn future generations to remember that they come from the forest.

 They wait silently.

Not long ago, the mountain suddenly collapsed on a large scale.

Morimi was keenly aware that this might be a revelation from the gods. So it began to carefully walk out of the cave, and found that the outside had indeed changed, and there were no longer any pursuers everywhere.

 However, at this juncture, another family of cave dwellers was wiped out.

Morimi’s ability is called [Wind Listener], and he can hear sounds dissipated in the air through the wind. This is extremely useful underground and has helped the family avoid many dangers and conflicts.

 He was in the wind and heard about the **** Yao, the apostles, and the tribe of garlic.

 The killings of [Whistleblower] and [Skinner] have ended.

 The **** here now is the benevolent and majestic Yao.

Morimi brought family members down the mountain, hoping to join the Garlic Tribe. So as soon as he met the forest wolf, he surrendered to the wolves and expressed his attitude of becoming a vassal.

 …

 Lu Yao was in a strange mood.

 The mountain collapse happened to be caused by the earthquake caused by himself. In this way, I have a certain fate with this caveman family.

Since we have a ghost city, it is not a big deal to accept a group of cave monsters.

 Before that, Lu Yao wanted to determine whether the cave wizard lied.

Isabel said: "Sir, I asked the nearby dead souls with my dying prayers, and what they said is basically the same as what they said about the forest."

That’s okay.

 40 cave monsters, led by their leader Morimi, left the mountains and came to the Garlic Tribe.

There were some differences within the Garlic tribe regarding the acceptance of cave monsters.

 Initially, most tribesmen opposed it.

 “The troglodyte is the enemy, the enemy!”

 “They are underground monsters who may kill people at any time!”

 “They killed the hero headhunters!”

 “Leader Yuzuo, have you forgotten the **** feud in the past?”

 Yuzhuo faces these criticisms and doubts calmly.

The gray-haired leader said: "Everyone, listen to me. The death of the headhunter shows us that the tribe must not stand still."

“If we were as powerful as the Salt Pond Tribe, would the cave monsters dare to attack us? They wouldn’t dare.”

“Even if we attack them, they don’t dare to resist.”

“Now, the cave monsters that once attacked us want to join the Garlic Tribe. Why is this?”

He concluded: "It's not because they have become timid, but because we have become stronger."

"Yao God sent an apostle, and she showed everyone the power of the gods. The Yanchi tribe is being punished by the gods. This is the power of the gods!"

Yu Zuo continued: "At first, the forest tribes were our enemies, then the barbarian tribes were our enemies, and then the Donghe tribes were also our enemies, but now, we work and live together."

 “Why not the caveman?”

Yuzhuo finally closed the coffin and concluded: "This is also the will of God Yao! Who of you wants to oppose it?"

 After bringing out the majesty of the gods, there was finally no other sound.

 Lu Yao was very satisfied with his courage. This was right, he looked like a leader.

He watched Yuzhao grow up.

 Once upon a time, he was still an unreliable part of the Pig and Fish brothers.

 Later, he became one of the earliest heroes of the tribe. He experienced the death of the headhunter in battle, various changes in the tribe, and the deaths of the first generation tribal leaders Nong Lai and Ye Cang... before he became the calm and mature leader he is now.

 After joining the Garlic tribe, the Troglodyte family obtained several houses.

 They live in the direction closest to the mountains to the west.

Morimi took the cave monsters with him to dig in the mountains every day with camels and copper hammers. The cave monsters also became professional miners and stonemasons in the tribe.

 Work allowed them to integrate into the garlic tribe.

Although the cave monster still wears a stone mask, has a strange shape, and sometimes crawls on all fours, the rest of the tribe has become accustomed to it.

 【Cave Wizard】Morimi quickly became the leader of the Garlic tribe because of his wisdom and experience, deciding the direction of the tribe together with Yuzhao and Shahan.

 At this time, a prompt appears on the screen.

　　【Morimi has offered you a sacrifice. 】

Lu Yao moved his wrist.

 The long-lost sacrifice is finally here.

 Let me see what props I can draw this time.

   Thanks to Xingyue Canhe for supporting 100 starting coins.
