Zero had already woken up when the eastern sky lighted up slightly. Pushing the door out of the house, the whole Assak village is full of busyness. Some female Assaks are cooking food, while men are pulling a lot of ready-made wood from outside the village for burning. Their lives are still very primitive, and no special tools are used. The food was thrown in a few large pots, and the stove was made of stones at the bottom.

But Ling clearly remembered that the crossbow used by Gao Ge was not primitive at all. The rate of fire and penetration that make the blade hunter unable to react is a level that can only be achieved after using a special system to drive it. It stands to reason that the Assaks have long passed the life of this primitive tribe.

"Are you interested in our life?". Gao Ge popped up from the house and couldn't help but say when he saw Ling looking towards the village under the tree.

Zero smile said: "Understanding the life of an ethnic group is conducive to understanding its habits, so as to be able to make better communication. I think so."

Gaoge showed a thoughtful expression: "You make a lot of sense. You can indeed see many habits and traces of a group from the living habits. It's just that there are not many human beings like you who are willing to communicate with us, otherwise, There won’t be so many wars."

Zero nodded and agreed that the disputes between humans and alien races may originate from the lack of resources. But this will not be the only fuse, more it comes from the mutual resistance, mistrust and even the eventual outbreak of war between two different life forms.

"They will deliver the food soon. If you want to know more about it, just follow me." Gog beckoned and invited Zero into his house.

In addition to Gao Ge in the tree house, there is another Assak woman who should be Gao Ge's wife. To be honest, Zero has not been able to distinguish Assak’s men from women. From the outside, they are not very different. Women are shorter than men, but their external characteristics are almost the same. What Gog said to his wife in her tribal language, the woman nodded and exited the tree house.

After a while, she came in with a wooden tray with some cooked meat steaks on it. After putting down the food, Gao Ge's wife left again, leaving only two people in the house.

Gog picked up a slice of steak and delivered it to his mouth: "Let's eat."

Zero looked at the plate, except for the steak, there were no other tools for eating. And judging from the quality of the steak, it doesn't even have any condiments, it's just cooked. He picked a small piece and sent it to his mouth to chew. I just feel that the meat is rough and the fiber is thick, making it difficult to swallow. In addition, there is no seasoning, let alone the meaty aroma, and there is even a bitterness in the mouth.

It was only out of courtesy that Zero still ate this steak. When Gaoge saw this, he laughed: "You humans are definitely not accustomed to eating our food, let alone you, even other clans, especially the Amandas, are very puzzled that we maintain this tradition."

Patriarch Assak said with a solemn face, "But they forgot, after the cataclysm, how hard we survived on this land, and what price we paid to have the scale we are today. It's too much. The easy days have made them gradually forget their nature, especially the special blood of the Amandas, and have gradually brought their habits and life closer to the human side."

After a pause, he said again: "Of course, I am not saying that such a change must be bad. It is just because of our Assak's own habits and maintaining a primitive life, in order to warn the people not to relax on this. The vigilance of the world."

Gog stood up and found a leather bag from a box in the house, which was the only utensil in the entire wooden house that could be used to put things in. The bag was tied with a straw rope, and Gog threw it to Zero and said, "This is Ba Jin, the patriarch of the Amanda. The gift he gave me when I met last time, he said it can make food delicious. It’s a natural miracle. I’ve never used it, I’ll use it for you."

Zero open, there are some powder like salt in it. They were slightly sprinkled on one of the steaks, and the powder quickly penetrated into the meat. With zero bite, the meat becomes less rough, and it has a salty taste and a slight licorice flavor. Sure enough, the taste of the food becomes a lot more delicious.

At this time, the sound of flying birds flapping wings was heard outside the house. Gog walked out, and Ling saw that **** falcon fell on Gog's hand. The falcon crowed, and zero noticed that its scream had a certain pattern. After three consecutive calls like this, with a wave of Goger's hand, it flew away. Patriarch Assak looked at Xiang Ling and said, "There is news from the holy temple that they agree to let you participate in the gladiatorial battle of warriors!"

Zero and one sign, things went well beyond his expectation.

At the same time, at the foot of Montenegro, two figures walked next to each other. When they came to the shore of the Great Lakes, one of the short figures stopped, and the man lifted the cap of the cloak, revealing a teenager's face. Another tall man stepped forward, pressed his head and said, "What are you thinking, Girutan?"

"Father, that..." Girutan raised his head: "Why does Hei Xiao go there in person? He is the elder of the Shadow Clan and the strongest fighter in the entire Shadow Clan. Is he just going to defeat Zero?".

"I don't think it's that simple either." Ba Jin, the patriarch of the Amandas, simply sat down, opened his hat, scratched his head and said: "The guy in the black owl has always been a gloomy person, and he rarely does it with others. It always feels a bit strange to be so positive now. However, during the time you left, there were some unproven rumors from the Shadow Clan."

Girutan said: "What rumors?"

"The Shadow Clan is almost finished." Ba Jin said softly.

But these words passed through Girutan's ears like thunder: "Why, how could this be?"

"I don't know if it is true or not? It seems to be abandoned by the God of Darkness. Now most of the Shadow Clan people can't afford to be sick, only the Black Owl still acts as usual." Ba Jin picked up a stone and threw it into the lake: "Humans have a saying, it's not entirely unreasonable. It's not surprising that the Shadow Clan will have such rumors. One is that in the past two years, except for the Black Owl, no other Shadow Clan people have been seen walking around, although their number was originally small; The second one is that since the human girl you brought has used the seeds of that year, in the past two years, the Shadow Clan has not given us seeds again, let alone the holy medicine."

Girutan opened his eyes wide, and he whispered softly: "If the rumors are true, then once the shadow clan falls..."

"The holy temple is over." Ba Jin said his heartbeat for his son: "I think the black owl can't wait to go out on his own this time, I am afraid it is not as simple as defeating your human friend. It is just that what he is thinking is not what I can do. I can figure it out."

Girutan closed his eyes, and a moment later he said, "Father, hold a coming-of-age ceremony for me when I go back."

"what?"

Ba Jin didn't believe his ears, he looked at his son and said, "You finally..."

"The situation now seems to be good for humans or us, the next situation will become very complicated. Anyway, I am also a member of the Amanda. Maybe..." Girutan looked into the water, from the holy In the water of the lake, it seemed that the silver-haired figure could be seen. It was just that the wind blew, and soon the shadow of the man in the lake was blown away: "Perhaps, it's time for me to grow up."

It is already afternoon, and you can see that a simple ring has been built in the center of the village. After receiving news from the holy temple this morning, Gao Ge ordered the tribe to build an arena. Hearing that there will be a gladiatorial match for the warriors of a hundred battles, the Assaks, who admire courage and strength, are very excited. The men rushed into the woods, put down the towering trees, cut them into pieces of logs and dragged them back, and then used wood and straw ropes to build this hexagonal arena in a time of ascending.

The two totem poles placed on the altar were also moved to the southeast corner of the ring. The totem poles were inserted into the ground and then pressed and fixed with stones. When these were completed, the Assaks cried out with excitement.

Gaoge nodded towards Zero, indicating that he could start.

Zero took off the tactical kit used for camouflage, and finally even changed the tactical uniform, and changed to the Assak animal skin vest and short coat.Gorge's wife personally put on Zero and made shoes with straw ropes. , And then mixed with sap and lime paint to draw a circular totem on Zero’s forehead. Gog told Zero that every time he defeated an Assak warrior, he would have one more totem. When the whole body is covered with a hundred totems, he is the entire black earth, a warrior of a hundred wars that all foreign races must recognize.

Zero speechless, the totem on Dare to love also plays a scoring role.

Followed Gaoge down the tree house and came to the village field. The arena is already full of men of the Assak tribe, and they can go to the arena to challenge zero at any time. As for the woman, she stayed in the tree house like Gaoge's wife, watching the event in silence.

Zero is a human kind, and the Assaks have no good feelings for humans. But they admire the warriors, no matter whether Zero will eventually become a warrior of a hundred wars, the courage to come to the village of the Assak alone and stand in the ring won their respect.

Gaoge and Ling stood on the ring together. He raised the zero hand, yelled a few times in tribal language, and said to the zero: "It's time to start."

The ceremony is so simple that it is horribly simple, which should also be related to the simple style of the Assaks. Zero in the countryside, nodded in agreement. Gao Ge quietly said: "If you can knock down 99 people, then I will punish you personally ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ won't let you wait too long." Ling said.

If Gaoge stepped down, it meant that gladiatorial battles could begin. What makes Ling cry dumbfounding is that the Assaks are vying to take the stage and compete with themselves. However, in the tradition of a hundred warriors, only one person can be challenged at a time, so in order to fight for who is the first to come to power, the Assaks almost fought on their own. In the end, Gog stopped them, and then a person dressed like a priest was carried out to a cauldron full of skulls of various creatures. One glance away, he saw that most of them were animal bones, and a few were Assak skulls. These skulls are painted with black paint, but more of them are blank.

Under the yelling of the priest, the Assaks gathered around the cauldron and grabbed a skull with their hands. The person who caught the symbol on the skull yelled in excitement, while the person without the symbol was downcast.

Zero relief, it turns out they were drawing lots.
