He pulled out another book, "The Secret History of Mankind", and flipped open the title page with interest. F * ck, it was actually a novel. Just by looking at the pages, one could tell that this book was frequently read by Old Man Lan. Alright, the Blade Warrior in the book had become a god. This was not a novel at all, but a scripture story like the Bible. These books all seemed to be from Earth.
He picked up another book. Finally, it was a normal book. The beauties inside were all scantily clad. It was an adult magazine. The pages were even older than the Blade Warrior novel.
However, upon seeing the publication date, Wang Zheng tossed it aside. Only the old man would flip through the pages so diligently. "Kacha."
"Kacha", the door to the research lab opened. Old Man Lan Jiang mumbled a string of numbers as he walked out. Suddenly seeing Wang Zheng, he was stunned for a long time before he reacted. "Why are you still here!"
"Didn't you ask me to come?"
"Oh, it's none of your business. Go back." Old Man Lan waved his hand, dismissing Wang Zheng.
Wang Zheng would not stoop to the same level as the old man. He took the Blade Warrior book and returned to his room.
The room was a double room. He was not staying alone. There was another guard, 40 years old. His feet were so smelly that they could blow a hole in the ozone layer. No one was willing to share a room with him.
"Brat, if it stinks, just say it. D * mn, stop covering your nose."
He was still a good person. After cursing a few times, he went to the bathroom to wash his feet and apply soap twice.
He did not know if he had really washed away the stench, or if he had gotten used to it. Anyway, as long as he was far away, he would not feel any discomfort. Wang Zheng smiled, cleaned up his personal hygiene, and flipped through the book to entertain himself.
The forty year old bodyguard, Scarface Luo, was currently recording a video. He faced his Skylink and posed in all sorts of poses. His mouth kept calling out "little sweetheart" and "darling". One look and anyone would know that he was referring to his lover and not his wife. His Skylink could not be used to communicate with the outside world. However, he could go to the satellite room and upload the video to his family.
Just as Wang Zheng was reading the most exciting part, Sun Xin arrived.
"What's the matter?"
Sun Xin stepped forward. "Tomorrow, there will be wise men from various Tita tribes coming to discuss. Do not tell anyone that you are from the Milky Way Alliance."
The relationship between the people of Tita and the early immigrants was not bad. After all, there were many common interests. However, towards the business groups and the Milky Way Alliance's special inspection team, there was only a bone-deep hatred.
The people of Tita did not trust outsiders easily. This was not surprising. After all, they were of different races. However, once they had established trust, they would not betray each other easily.
Wang Zheng nodded. He was just a soldier, and he didn't know what he was doing at the moment.
At this moment, in Lan Jiang's house, Lan Ling was preparing tea for the old man.
"Granduncle, what do you think of him? Is it just my imagination?"
Lan Jiang smiled, "I'm afraid this kid isn't simple. I can't see through him, but he doesn't have a bad heart. However, the situation now is a little sensitive. It's better to pay more attention."
Lan Ling nodded her head. This was because Wang Zheng could also be a spy sent by the Milky Way Alliance or even the Commerce Organisation. Even though the possibility of this was extremely low, this was because if they had not set up a trap, how could a fallen escape pod have survived? If it was not serious injuries, it would have directly turned into ashes.
The extent of the Lan Clan's influence could be seen from this meeting.
Although it was called the various tribes, two-thirds of the Tita tribes had sent out their Wise Elder.
The sky was clear and there wasn't a single cloud. The scorching sun was roasting everything on the ground. Groups of Tita people walked out from the deep mountains, entered Lan Kao City and arrived at the Lan Family.
In the entire human world, only the Lan Family could maintain a relatively friendly relationship with the people of Tita. This was also one of the reasons why the Lan Family was the leader of the immigrants.
A Wise Elder would be paired with 4 Tita warriors. A true warrior in the Tita tribe would have to pass 12 tests to obtain this honorary title.
Seeing groups of people of Tita swarming into the Lan Family, Wang Zheng finally felt that the position of the Lan Family as one of the 3 major forces wasn't just for show.
However, when he saw the people of Tita, Old Man Lan went crazy again. He bared his teeth and grabbed the Wise Elder from the Pool Tribe with red eyes. "Caliph, you know what I mean!"
The short Caliph shook Lan Jiang off as though he was shaking off the plague. His 2 short legs ran faster than a rabbit. His 4 Brave Protectors took huge strides and disappeared in an instant.
The people of Tita who were on good terms with the Lan Family knew that there was an old lunatic in the Lan Family. He always wanted to dissect the people of Tita for research. He didn't want dead bodies but alive ones.
When Lan Jiang saw that the people of Tita treated him like a plague, he turned around and grabbed Wang Zheng to vent his anger.
However, after landing 2 punches on Wang Zheng's arm, he rubbed his fist and walked away while cursing. "Brat, you have some muscles. It wasn't worth it to beat you up. You didn't feel any pain at all. Instead, you had hurt my hand."
The guards were a little overwhelmed. The Wise Elders of Tita were competing with each other. However, it wasn't the same for their Brave Protectors. Each of them could eat more than the other and were more unreasonable than the other. Within a short period of time, there had already been 5 duels. 3 of them were severely injured and 1 had died.
There was another pair that was fighting wildly on the stage.
Wang Zheng was watching the commotion. As long as the people of Tita weren't Wise Elders, they were natural warriors. On average, they had a height of over 5 meters and were powered by 3 hearts. Their huge heads had a brain capacity that was 1.5 times that of a human. From the research data that Old Man Lan had, the cerebellum of the people of Tita was exceptionally developed. The reflexes of an ordinary person of Tita were even stronger than a human warrior who had undergone tough training. Moreover, these were the outstanding warriors of the people of Tita.
It was a wild battle. Every punch landed on flesh. However, the 2 Tita warriors didn't seem to care. Wang Zheng saw that one of the Tita warriors' punches had missed and landed heavily on the wall. A huge chunk of the wall that could only leave a small hole had collapsed immediately. However, the fist of this Tita warrior didn't even leave a scratch on the surface of the wall.
"Monsters with bones of steel. To deal with them, you would have to use armour piercing bullets or explosive bullets."
Old Man Lan Jiang had returned without anyone knowing. He was holding a huge bag of peanuts in his hands and was peeling and eating them as he watched.
Wang Zheng smiled and reached out to grab a handful of peanuts to eat. Lan Jiang looked at Wang Zheng and stuffed the bag of peanuts into Wang Zheng's hands. "There's no taste of salt."
When one was old, they had to eat less salt. However, the older they got, the more they wanted to eat flavourful food.
The outcome of the duel was out. As expected, one was heavily injured and the other was lightly injured. The scene was extremely bloody. However, the people of Tita were roaring like tigers and wolves. The 2 tribes that these 2 warriors represented did not have the intention to become enemies because of this.
Lan Jiang looked at the injured people of Tita and his eyes turned red again. He rushed forward and wanted to use the excuse of treatment to conduct research. However, he was chased out.
The development of the people of Tita was divided into 3 stages.
The first stage was the childhood stage. At this stage, all the people of Tita were the same.
The second stage was the choice stage. At the age of 12, the people of Tita would choose their own path in life. Would they become a warrior or a Wise Elder of the tribe?
The third stage was the adulthood stage. At this stage, there would be a differentiation between warriors and Wise Elders.
Lan Jiang wanted to research why the people of Tita would have a choice stage and choose their own path of evolution. This was a very magical thing.
It was not surprising that the people of Tita would treat him as a crazy plague. They were already giving face to the Lan Family by not killing him with a single punch.
"Aren't you going in for the meeting?"
Wang Zheng looked at Lan Jiang and found a topic to ask him.
Lan Jiang was still pouting. "I'm a scientist. Kid, do you understand? All brawn and no brains. You don't even know what Lauren Li's Warp Speed Theory is. How are you going to communicate? "
It was obvious that they were treating you as a monster. Wang Zheng smiled faintly and echoed Old Man Lan's words. From the corner of his eyes, he was looking at the battle between the 2 warriors who had just entered the arena.
These 2 warriors were evenly matched. Moreover, they were the type that could endure battles. There was no way to tell who would win.
"Don't look at how they are fighting to the death. This is a tradition. During a tribal gathering, it wouldn't be lively if 3 to 5 people died. Isn't it cool?"
"These people are all warriors. Isn't this reducing their combat strength?" Wang Zheng felt that he was more like a lunatic.
"There is always a reason for the existence of a tradition. Up till now, we have not figured out what is going on. If a warrior dies in a tribe, the next generation of warriors will have an explosive effect."
Wang Zheng blinked his eyes.
"Kid, don't even think about it. It has to be a holy duel. Going easy or courting death. Not only will there be no effect, there will also be punishment. Those d * mned Tita people think that they are gods. Bullsh * t gods. There must be a reason that science can explain."
Old Man Lan mumbled. Rather than saying that he was explaining to Wang Zheng, it was more like he was mumbling to himself.
Wang Zheng took this as a warning. Science could be researched and treated as a hobby. However, one must not be too engrossed in it. Science was like this. The more one knew, the more one did not know. This was an endless loop and one would eventually lose himself. It was better for him to be a straightforward warrior. A man should be hot-blooded.
In the duel room, the warriors of the Tita people were in a killing frenzy. The 2 warriors from different tribes let out a roar in unison. Their abnormally huge bodies became even bigger. Turbulent air currents were emitted from both of them. It was just like 2 ferocious beasts declaring their strength.
As they collided, the ground cracked. Wang Zheng looked on seriously. Such strength would not be weaker than Ability X.
One of the Tita warriors was at a disadvantage in terms of strength. However, he had the upper hand in terms of speed. He was constantly dodging and depleting the energy of his opponent.
Old Man Lan Jiang was mumbling to himself. It would be best if both of them were severely injured. If they were to die, it would not be easy to use the excuse of recovery to conduct research. Wang Zheng was a little worried as he heard this. This old man's heart was definitely blacker than oil. The old man had asked him to be his assistant in name. Could it be that he was planning some live subject experiments?
Roar! There was a wild roar in the duel room. The Tita warrior who was strong but not brave grabbed the arm of the weaker warrior and tore it off forcefully. Dark red blood gushed out like a fountain. However, there was no sign of pain on the face of the other warrior. It was as though it was not his arm that was torn off, but an insignificant piece of trash like his clothes. Both his legs kicked out fiercely and landed a heavy kick on his opponent's chest. This was an attack that he had put his life on the line …
Both of them were severely injured!
Roar roar roar …
The people of Tita who were watching the battle let out battle roars. They had no intention of going up to rescue the injured warrior. It has to be said that watching the battle between the giants was indeed spectacular and exciting. Even Wang Zheng wanted to go up and exercise.
"This is my warrior duel. Young man, this must be the first time you have seen it."
A wise man suddenly appeared at the side. He was shorter than Wang Zheng by a head. It was hard to imagine that he had the same genes and opportunities as the giants.
Wang Zheng sized up this wise man from Dolan. He had a skinny body and was only 1.4 meters tall. His face was full of wrinkles and his tanned skin was emitting a different glow. His eyes were so clear that they seemed to be able to see through everything. This was a mysterious race.
Lan Jiang recognized this wise man. He opened his mouth and said, "Mu Sen, this was picked up by our Ling lass. Why don't I use him to exchange for another person with you? As long as he is not dead!"
Wang Zheng was stunned. Did this old man have to be so ruthless …
Mu Sen ignored Lan Jiang and looked at Wang Zheng instead.
(Rest for the weekend. I wish all of you a happy weekend!)
