Chapter 383

Xiao Bao took Han through a transition jump, quickly arriving in a new dimension within the Dark Net .

The space was a plant’s paradise . Inside the tropical forest, there were trees that were hundreds of meters tall with thick foliage . Past the tropical forest was a vast grassland . In the middle of the grassland there was a tree . The tree was taller than the Himalayan Mountains, and it reached tens of thousands of meters in height . Han could not imagine how a tree grew to such a magnitude .

WUUUU~

Xiao Bao let out a cry of excitement, and brought Han to the top of a tree branch . To be honest, the tree branch was more like a wide road . Han felt as if he had shrunk and became an ant on the tree . The green leaves were like mini spaceships drifting in space .

On the branch, Xiao Bao’s parents and another person were waiting for Han . They had prepared a table full of food which was placed on a simple wooden table and in simple wooden pots . Inside the pot, there were some fruits which Han could not put a name to .

Han had met Xiao Bao’s parents before . Han was not sure which race the other person was part of . He had blue skin and blood like Boya, but he looked very different and wore a coarse garment made of the fiber of tree leaves . His feet were big and his knees were wide, his eyes were also big but his nose was small like a peanut .

“You must be Han?” The blue fellow extended his hand and asked .

Han shook his hand and asked, “Yes . And you are?”

“My name is Yun San . I am a translator and also the leader of the tribe . ” Yun San said .

“Translator?” Han asked curiously .

Yun San smiled and said, “Oh, I’ll do a demonstration and you will understand . ”

After his words ended, he nodded towards Xiao Bao’s father . Xiao Bao had been brought away by his mother and flew to the top of the large tree . Before he left, Xiao Bao had even made a face at Han .

Xiao Bao’s father slowly placed an arm on Yun San’s head . Yun San closed his eye and the end of Xiao Bao’s arm started to slowly sparkle like a sapphire .

Yun San opened his eyes and said, “Look . I have established a mental connection with Hong . Hong said that he would like to thank you for saving his child . To thank you, he shall follow your wishes and name his child Xiao Bao . ”

Han was dazed . He smiled and said, “Please tell Hong that Xiao Bao was only a nickname I made up since it sounded good . Please don’t take it seriously . ”

Yun San said, “Hong said that he really likes the name ‘Xiao Bao’ . ”

Han scratched his head and said, “If that’s the case, then let’s follow his wishes . I wonder why we are meeting today? It can’t just be to name Xiao Bao?”

Yun San said, “Hong thinks that you are a trustworthy person so he wishes to be friends with you . He hopes you can take care of Xiao Bao . ”

Han said, “That goes without saying . Xiao Bao is lovely . Not only do I like him, my brothers like him too . You can rest assured, when Xiao Bao is with me, I assure you that he will be safe . ”

Yun San nodded his head . For some unknown reason, Han felt that there was a faint feeling of sadness in the air . A heavy weight seemed to be lifted off of Hong’s shoulders after he understood that Han had promised to protect Xiao Bao .

Yun San laughed and said, “Xiao Bao is very lucky to have met a kind-hearted person like you . Come and taste some of these fruits that we grew . ”

Han grabbed a melon and took a bite .

Instantaneously, a sweet taste passed through his tongue and into his brain . Han felt that this melon was the most delicious food in this world . As a carnivore, Han usually did not like to eat fruits or vegetables, but the fruits here were different – they were sweet and fresh . Once one started eating, they couldn’t stop .

Thus, Han tried each and every fruit . After tasting all the fruits on the table, Yun San happily said, “Eat slowly . I will ask them to prepare some fruits to let you bring back as a gift later . ”

“That will be great . ” Han smiled and said .

The meeting was so simple it made Han slightly puzzled . After Han promised to protect Xiao Bao, Yun San and Hong did not bring up any matters . They were only polite and asked Han to taste those fruits and bring some back .

Han smiled and said, “Thank you for your hospitality . If there is time, please come visit my place . I will treat you guys to some meat buns, my favorite food . ”

Yun San grinned and said, “To be honest, we are vegetarians . ”

Han instantly felt awkward, but thankfully Yun San didn’t seem to mind .

Just as Han was prepared to leave, he suddenly saw a group of Yun San’s tribesmen entering the territory . They seemed to have just been defeated from battle . They were supporting each other over their shoulders . Many had serious injuries and faces filled with dejection .

“What’s the matter?” Han asked Yun San .

Yun San said with a heavy voice, “This land is occupied by different tribes . There are occasionally conflicts between the tribes . It’s nothing serious . ”

Even though his words were lighthearted, but Han could still see dejection from Yun San’s face as well . He recalled when Hong entrusted Xiao Bao to himself and his heart became more doubtful .

After Han had left, Yun San left to visit those injured tribesmen .

“Tribal leader Yun, we have been defeated . We lost territory number 7 . The remaining people have transferred to territory number 4 and are defending there . ”

Yun San let out a long sigh and said, “We have lost even territory number 7 . Now we only have 3 territories to defend . This is not good . To be honest, Hong has thought about the worst outcome . If we continue to lose, Hong has decided…”

“NO! Absolutely not! Tribe Leader, Hong said that he met a very strong tribe and the tribe is very friendly towards us . Why can’t we ask for their help?” Yun San’s subordinate asked .

Yun San shook his head and said, “That is not a tribe . Their leader is called Han . I met him just now . As a friend, we cannot involve him into the complicated tribe battles . This will harm them . ”

Yun San’s subordinate said heavily, “If there are no reinforcements, our tribe will be extinguished . And Hong . . Hong will . . ”

Yun San said, “If it is nature’s will for us to be extinct, we need to follow the wishes of Lady Nature . This is not only my wish . But also Hong’s wishes . ”

Yun San’s subordinate seemed dejected but could only nod his head .

Han returned . He was frowning and deep in thought as he entered the blue water of the lake .

“How are Xiao Bao’s parents and tribesmen?” Luo Ying asked curiously .

Han said, “They are of an intelligent species who are at peace with mankind . They are vegetarians and live simple lives . . but…”

“But what?” Luo Ying asked while lifting her chin .

“But I think, they might be in trouble . Today, when I met Xiao Bao’s father, he specially mentioned that if there is any accident in the future, he hopes that I can take care of Xiao Bao . ” Han replied .

Luo Ying pursed his lips and said, “Hopefully there is no accident . As you said, they are kind and simple . ”

Han thought and called out, “Lance . ”

“What’s the matter?”

“When I went to Xiao Bao’s place, I secretly recorded the geographic coordinates . I hope that you can investigate and find out what kind of troubles they have met . Everyone are friends . Even though they have not come to us for help, but if we can help them, we should try . ” Han voiced his thoughts .

“No worries . On it . ” Lance stood up from the lake water and left in the blink of an eye .

Luo Ying lightly punched Han on his shoulder and said happily, “This is the Han I know . Xiao Bao and his tribesmen are so kind, we should be helping them if we can . ”

Han shook his head and said heavyheartedly, “Things are not that simple . If they need help, they would have said something . Why would they hide it from me? Do they have some difficulties they are unwilling to disclose?”

“Never mind, everything will be clear once Lance returns . ”

Lance returned in two days . His face looked very bad .

He threw his armor heavily on the ground and furiously said, “F*ck this tribal territory . Too cruel! It’s too cruel!”

“What’s the matter?”

“What did you see?”

“Say something . We are all anxious to know!”

Everyone on the scene, including Han gathered around him curiously .

Lance pressed the transmission recorder on the armor and connected the information he had gathered in the past two days onto the server . Then he asked Queen to display it onto a screen .

The screen recorded Lance’s trip for the past two days . After going into stealth mode, he followed Yun San’s tribesmen into their territory .

Like Xiao Bao’s house, it was also filled with beautiful mountains and clear water . It appeared to be luxuriantly green and Yun San’s tribesmen lived a communal and simple life . They lived in wooden tree houses built on the top of the tall trees, wore coarse clothes made of plant fiber and lived off fruits .

Han noticed that when they ate fruits, they would carefully remove the seeds, place it in their hands and bring it to a designated person who would find an empty plot of land to plant the seed . Then, there would be some people that carefully water the plant .

Without a doubt, Yun San and his tribesmen were a race who believed in Nature . Under their care, all kinds of plants grew on their land . The intelligent species lived in harmony with plants and lived a quiet life in seclusion .

Everyone nodded . They were a bunch of warriors who could kill without a blink of the eye but that did not mean they were inhumane . The reason Han and Sima Hunfeng fought with all their might was for the people in their hometown to live in a peaceful and happy environment .

Everyone admired the lives of Yun San and his tribesmen . They did not have to fight every day . If they could live lives like this after they retire, they would be content .

But for some reason, the eyes of these intelligent species who lived rural lives were filled with worry and despair . Han suddenly thought of Earth –many years ago, the ordinary people on earth lived in gloom and fear . Their eyes were too similar to the eyes of the people on Earth many years ago .

Suddenly, with a change in scene, the barrier seal was opened and an army had invaded .

They wore a black armor and held all kinds of weapons in their hands and wore ferocious masks on their faces .
