Star maps were one of the most important tools for space navigation. According to the star map, ships could avoid terrifying electromagnetic storms and bypass hidden black holes.
Han Lang discovered that the star map used by the Maple Leaf family was different from the Alliance's version. They could always find the shortest route between two points and speed up their progress. In less than a day, Han Lang had already entered the periphery of the Headhunter Star System. If the route was calculated according to the Alliance's version of the star map, it would take at least two days.
The Ye family, who had been operating outside the Milky Way for a long time, obviously knew the Desolate Star System better than anyone else. Han Lang asked Ye Jincheng for a copy of their star map, and Ye Jincheng naturally gave it to Han Lang. In his opinion, how could Han Lang be considered an outsider?
It was also because the Ye family had been operating outside the Milky Way for a long time that they were very familiar with the rules of the merchants. They quickly established contact with the aliens in the Headhunter Star System as merchants. They were led by a small frigate and docked at an airport specially designed to receive visitors.
Because the Desolate Star System was so far away from the Milky Way, and because the Milky Way rejected aliens, the people living there could not directly trade with the Milky Way. However, they liked the various luxuries, handicrafts, and delicious ingredients produced by the Milky Way, so the business of merchants was born.
Merchants took great risks and traveled thousands of miles to bring their favorite goods to the aliens, exchanging them for valuable high-grade minerals. They were welcomed by the aliens in the Desolate Star System.
In fact, the Maple Leaf family was the largest merchant in the Desolate Star System. The family's huge wealth was accumulated by selling goods for generations.
As the family grew stronger, the Maple Leaf family had its own army and fleet. Under the protection of powerful forces, the Ye family extended its tentacles deeper into the universe. It was said that some of the Ye family's ultra-long-distance trade fleets would take up to a few years or even more than a decade to set sail.
After the cargo ship docked at the airport, Han Lang and Ye Jincheng disembarked. Ye Jincheng whispered in Han Lang's ear, "The aliens who live here call themselves the Headhunters. Their ancestors would chop off the heads of their enemies and hang them in their living room as a merit. That's how they got their name."
"In the Turbid Star System, the Headhunters are the strongest and most technologically advanced alien race. We have to be careful when dealing with them."
"My men will stall the Headhunters and trade with them. The two of us will take the opportunity to sneak in and investigate near the home of the leader of the Headhunters, Fran."
Han Lang nodded and did not say anything.
Soon, a few Land Speedos rushed to the front of the transport ship, and a group of aliens in combat uniforms jumped down from it. They had black skin and large nostrils. The headhunters, who had more lung capacity than humans, panted heavily, and their voices were much louder.
The Lu Feichi came directly from the remains of the prehistoric civilization in the ruins, and so did the combat suit. The Lu Feichi currently produced in the galaxy could only be regarded as an imitation of a prehistoric invention. To some extent, the equipment of these headhunters was more advanced than that of humans because they all used the original version.
Although the headhunters were aliens, they were very smart. Not only had they learned how to use the advanced machinery left behind by the prehistoric civilization, but they had also learned how to repair it. However, the parts still needed to be purchased from the galaxy.
The laser emitter on Lu Feichi was exactly the same as the one Han Lang had hidden in the Moon Scar. An original shoulder-mounted laser weapon like this could easily be exchanged for hundreds of millions of star coins in the Galaxy, but here, the headhunters had installed a transportation tool like Lu Feichi.
When dealing with aliens, bribery was a very effective pass. This group of alien soldiers accepted the gifts from Ye Jincheng, some glittering ornaments and a few boxes of high alcohol, and immediately issued them a trading permit.
They hung some chains made of animal bones around the necks of Han Lang and the others. Seeing this symbol, no more soldiers would come to question the merchants. Han Lang and the others could freely trade goods on this planet.
"Are you people from the Ye family?" A tall alien soldier seemed to suddenly remember something and asked.
"No, we are free merchants from the thirty-fifth sector of the galaxy."
"Oh, it's good that you're not from the Ye family." The soldier easily believed Ye Jincheng's words.
"Excuse me, does the Ye family not do business here? They are the largest commercial corps in the turbid star sector, "Ye Jincheng asked carefully.
The tall soldier waved his hand and said angrily, "The Ye family is not good! They are using warships to force us! If we don't trade, we will fight! We don't like the Ye family. "
Ye Jincheng nodded and did not say anything more.
The soldiers of the headhunter clan were very loyal. They immediately left two cargo Lufchi for Han Lang and the others to load the goods onto the vehicles. Then, they could go to a place where people gathered to trade. Meanwhile, they took the bribe and laughed as they returned to the city, no longer caring about how Han Lang and the others wanted to trade or what they wanted to trade.
"That's it?" Han Lang asked curiously. "We don't have to pay taxes, and they don't care what our goods are?"
Ye Jincheng said, "The alien races are all like this. After they take the valuable things, they will definitely drink and look for women. If you can really trade with them, you will find how ridiculous these guys are. Not only do you earn their money, they will also let the women in the village sleep with you. Actually, compared to trading in the galaxy, I prefer to do it under this wild starry sky. There is more money and freedom."
"What about the warship that the headhunter clan mentioned?" Han Lang asked again.
"That was many years ago. The previous head of the family had a little conflict with the leader of the headhunter clan. These guys have always held a grudge and actually refused to let us enter."
"Sigh, the alien races will always be the alien races. If they are good to you, they can't wait to give you their wives and children. Once they are not good, they will cut off your head at any time." Ye Jincheng muttered.
Sitting on the Lufchi, Han Lang thought about these alien races all the way. Not long after, the Lufchi stopped. Han Lang and Ye Jincheng got off and went into the dense forest. Ye Jincheng's men had to play the role of merchants, while Han Lang and he had to find the whereabouts of Ye Guhong.
Pointing to one of the mountains, Ye Jincheng said, "Look, that is the home of their current leader, Fran. It is on the top of the mountain. It is said that Fran is the strongest warrior of the headhunter clan. He is a little eccentric and does not like to live in the city. Instead, he lives alone in the mountains with his family."
"I saw the head of the family's warship at the airport just now, which means that he has not left yet. I guess that his meeting with Fran will most likely be held on that mountain, at Fran's house. It does not matter if they meet in the city. My men will use a special code to inform us."
Han Lang nodded his head and followed Ye Jincheng towards the mountain.
The mountain where Fran lived was the highest. On one side of the mountain was a dense forest, and on the other side was a cliff.
"The headhunter clan is best at hiding themselves in the forest. Let's go up from the cliff." Ye Jincheng said in a very experienced manner.
So the two of them carefully rushed all the way to the bottom of the cliff. At this moment, the sun of the headhunter galaxy was already setting in the west. In at most a quarter of an hour, it would fall into darkness. Han Lang and Ye Jincheng could take advantage of the darkness to climb up the mountain.
Suddenly, Han Lang smelled a familiar smell. The smell of blood!
"Demonic Claw!"
Han Lang gently wiped his finger on the Moon Scar and released the Demonic Claw.
Swish!
The strange creature with nine large claws immediately disappeared into the forest, and soon dragged a corpse over.
The corpse was obviously a headhunter, but it did not have a face. The skin of the face had been peeled off with the precision of a scalpel.
Han Lang and Ye Jincheng were stunned. They followed the Demonic Claw for another few hundred meters and found more corpses in a dense forest. These corpses did not have faces, and they had been thrown down from a high place. Some corpses were even impaled on tree branches.
"Don't touch them!" Han Lang stopped Ye Jincheng from touching the corpses and said, "The corpses have been smeared with the Fan Mu solution that vultures hate. The murderer was probably afraid that too many vultures would come to eat the corpses and attract attention."
"You also know pharmacology?" Ye Jincheng was stunned and asked in surprise.
The warriors of the Milky Way paid attention to specialization. Warriors only needed to practice martial arts seriously. Han Lang was able to identify the very unpopular anti-vulture potion at a glance, which surprised Ye Jincheng.
"I learned a little."
"Then why were their faces peeled off?"
Han Lang's eyes were slightly cold, and he said in a low voice, "Fan Mu solution, skin peeled off, these all remind me of another alien race, the Witch race."
"Witch race!" Ye Jincheng's voice could not help but tremble.
In the Milky Way, the Witch race was synonymous with all kinds of viciousness. This race had always been known for its mysterious and cruel methods. Many large families would secretly hire some Witch race warriors to do those shady things.
The Witch race had appeared in the territory of the headhunters, and near the Faran Family, the leader of the headhunters?
Han Lang and Ye Jincheng suddenly had a very bad feeling. It was also at this time that the sun went down, and the forest was completely dark.
"We have to go up the mountain immediately to take a look," Ye Jincheng said while pinching his fingers.
"Agreed!" Han Lang said in a low voice, "Demonic Claw! Take us up! "
Swish!
Immediately, the nine huge claws of the Demonic Claw moved quickly, climbing up the cliff at a speed faster than an elevator. Han Lang grabbed the Demonic Claw with one hand and Ye Jincheng with the other.
They reached the cliff in the blink of an eye! The speed was so fast that Ye Jincheng could not imagine it at all.
Han Lang, Ye Jincheng, and the Demonic Claw were hiding in the darkness. They saw a very simple courtyard at the top of the mountain, a wooden fence, a wooden house, and some vegetables in the front yard.
Faran, the leader of the headhunters, was more low-key than any leader of the previous generation. He liked a simple life, and he could not persist in the palace in the city. Instead, he lived in the wilderness and was obsessed with cultivation.
At this moment, there was light in the wooden house, and they could clearly see the headhunter warriors patrolling outside, their eyes very vigilant.
"These people are not the warriors of the headhunters," Han Lang said in a low voice. "The headhunters' warriors are a little undisciplined, and these guys are so vigilant. Obviously, they are seriously defending against something."
"Damn the Witch race, walking around here with the face of the headhunters. Let's join forces and kill them," Ye Jincheng could not help but say.
"No, the Witch race is best at using poison. It is said that even their bodies are covered in poison," Han Lang said.
"Then what should we do?"
"It's very simple. We don't touch them, let my men come down!"
"Your subordinates?"
Ye Jincheng was wondering how Han Lang could kill more than fifty enemies from the Witch race with only a monster-like earthen claw.
Suddenly, Han Lang's finger gently wiped the Scar of the Moon. On the top of the mountain, under the rising moonlight, an army suddenly appeared!
It was an army formed by the Armored Beast Divine Weapon and the Six-Armed Star Ape!
"Leave only one, kill the rest!" Han Lang ordered in a cold tone in the darkness.
PS: This month on the shelves was quite important. Under the care of the brothers, she finally stayed on the monthly votes list. Although her ranking fell from third to eighth, that was because someone bought the monthly votes and competed unfairly. And the brothers' rewards and monthly votes had always made Jiu'er very touched.
After writing for almost six years, this was the first time a new book had stayed in the top ten of the monthly votes list.
In the last week of this month, I will continue to ask for monthly votes!
Thank you everyone!
