The group moved forward at a fast pace. The regenerated-tail rhinoceros was carried by a man on his shoulder. Everyone was speechless. Their minds were focused on the behemoth that was flying slowly behind them.
A mech. Sang Ling recognized the large object. There were also seven mechs in the ancestral hall of the Sang Village, but compared to this mech, they looked ancient. In fact, this was not an exaggeration. The seven mechs had been passed down for generations, and every member of the Sang Family knew them well.
Mechs could fly, after all. Sang Ling glanced at Han Jia, which was still in mid-air, and her eyes were filled with envy. Legend had it that mechs could fly, but today was the first time she had seen a mech in flight. The way to operate the seven mechs in the ancestral hall was lost a long time ago. They were just a symbol, a symbol of their ancestors' undaunted struggle.
Sang Ling's novelty did not last long, and she began to worry about Sang Fan's injuries. As childhood friends, she and Sang Fan were recognized as a couple in the village. Sang Fan was as outstanding as she was, and they were undoubtedly the cream of the crop among the younger generation.
It was all this guy's fault! Sang Ling could not help but glare at Han Jia. The dagger was stained with the blood of the three-eyed giant octopus. No wonder the regenerated-tail rhinoceros suddenly went berserk. The aura of the three-eyed giant octopus was very sensitive to smell, and the regenerated-tail rhinoceros's scent was enough to cause it to panic.
However, if this mech had not intervened in the end, Sang Fan would probably have … Sang Ling shuddered. Moreover, the other party had even taken out emergency medicine to help Sang Fan. Since the other party had done so much, no one could say anything. His first aid was truly miraculous. After taking such a small pill, Sang Fan's breathing almost immediately stabilized. Although he was still unconscious, his condition seemed to be much better.
This mech was really strong! Sang Ling could not help but marvel at the fact that it could hurt the three-eyed giant octopus. Before meeting this mech, she had never thought that anything could do any harm to such a powerful beast.
Ye Chong sat in the pilot cabin, looking calm. However, he was not as calm as he appeared.
In his eyes, this group of primitive people spoke the same language as him. Communication between the two sides was not a problem. Could this be the Five Galaxies? That was the first thought that came to Ye Chong's mind. Did these people come from some savage tribe? However, Ye Chong quickly dismissed the idea.
If such a strange place was in the Five Major Star Fields, it would have been discovered long ago.
From their conversation, Ye Chong found out that they came from a place called the Sang Family Village. "Village" was an unfamiliar term to Ye Chong. He thought it must be the name of a city.
The other party was obviously cautious of Ye Chong, and did not speak much. Ye Chong found this to be normal. If it were him, he would probably be more cautious than these people. At first, Ye Chong thought they were from some barbarian tribe. He did not expect them to recognize mechs. Ye Chong was surprised.
However, their weapons and clothes were primitive to Ye Chong.
There was no deep communication between the two sides. According to the woman in the group, they could ask their village chief if they had any questions.
Village Chief? What an interesting title.
Ye Chong found something special - this group was clearly disciplined. Skillful cooperation, reasonable division of labor. This reminded Ye Chong of a term - an army! For example, Ye Chong felt that the Sanctuary's standard combat unit was very similar to this group.
This made Ye Chong even more suspicious of them being from a primitive tribe.
Ye Chong was also amazed by the physique of these people. The seven-meter tall rettail rhinoceros weighed a lot, but the man carrying it looked relaxed, and did not slow down at all.
Finally, he reached the Sang Family Village. The Sang Family Village was much smaller than Ye Chong imagined. The village was surrounded by a six-meter tall wall, probably to defend against wild animals. However, if a mech wanted to invade a village like this, it would be a piece of cake.
There were no anti-air facilities, no magnetic interference facilities, and no long range attack facilities. Ye Chong quickly assessed the village, and concluded that if he wanted to leave, they would not be able to stop him. This reassured Ye Chong. While these people were of the same kind, and communication was not a problem, Ye Chong did not dare to let his guard down.
Han Jia's simple and crude scanning system, however, was able to display its prowess here and perform miraculous feats.
There were about a hundred thousand people. Ye Chong could not help but shake his head. This city was too small. In the Five Galaxies, which city did not have a few million people? Everything here was very primitive, and it was a living wild tribe.
The return of Sang Ling and the rest caused a commotion. Sang Fan's injury caused everyone to be flustered. But very quickly, he was sent to an extremely short purple straw hut. The people who were about to leave finally noticed Han Jia's presence.
"Mech, it's a mech …" A villager was so excited that he could barely speak.
"It really is a mech …" Voices came one after another, all of them exclaiming in awe.
The area around Han Jia was surrounded by a dense crowd.
When Ye Chong walked out of Han Jia, there was a brief silence in the village.
When Ye Chong put Han Jia back into the dimension keystone, the villagers were shocked. It was shocking to see such a huge thing suddenly disappear in front of everyone.
Ye Chong soon realized his situation. He was surrounded by everyone, and could not get out.
"Everyone, make way, make way." Soon, the crowd parted to make way. An old man in uniform approached Ye Chong with Sang Ling's help.
"Ahem, ahem, young man, nice to meet you. I'm the village head, Sang De." The village head coughed twice, and spoke slowly.
Ye Chong was always polite to the elderly. He bowed slightly and said, "Nice to meet you, Village Head. I'm a lost mech pilot, and I hope you can help me."
Sang De nodded, and spoke to the villagers around him, "Disperse, disperse." The village head's words were effective. The villagers obediently dispersed, leaving only a few children in the corner, looking at them curiously.
"Let's talk in my house." Chief Sander gestured for him to go in.
Ye Chong had a pleasant conversation with the village head. Ye Chong now had a basic understanding of the Sang Family Village. The Sang Family Village was the only human settlement here. It was said that their ancestors fled here to escape a great disaster.
Their clan had been living here for five hundred years. 500 years ago, they came from a galaxy called He Yue.
He Yue galaxy? Which galaxy was that? Could it be the former name of one of the Five Major Galaxies? It was possible that the galaxy had changed its name after 500 years. However, Ye Chong could not be sure. He knew nothing about the history of the Five Major Galaxies.
Sang De agreed to Ye Chong's request without hesitation. The experienced chief Sang De had calculated everything clearly. The young man in front of him was a trump card. With him around, the village's defense would undoubtedly increase by a few levels. As for the young man's background, Sang De did not think it was a problem. If he wanted to harm the village, no one could stop him. If that was the case, why not build a good relationship with him?
Besides, after 500 years of development, the outside world had developed to an unimaginable extent. This place was still so primitive. This had always been a pain in the heart of every village head. The ancestors who piloted the mechs had arrived here to protect the villagers. Most of the combatants had died, including all the engineers. That was why the Sang Family Village was so primitive. Not long after, when the backup energy was depleted, all the mechs were reduced to scrap metal. Even now, the problem of energy was not solved, and no one knew how to pilot a mech anymore.
Now, there was an outsider, an outsider who piloted a mech. This gave the Sang family hope after 500 years of silence a glimmer of hope.
Ye Chong did not think too much about it. Staying here for now was the wisest choice. He did not know the way back to the Five Major Galaxies. Recklessly running around would only lead to death. This celestial body was filled with too many incredible places, and they had lived here for more than 500 years, so they had a good understanding of this place. At least, he did not have to worry about survival.
Ye Chong followed a young man named Sang Pu. Sang Pu was about the same age as him. His height of 1.7 meters made him look rather burly in the Sang Family Village. Sang Pu was calm and quiet, but he was well respected among the younger generation. It was said that he would be the next village head.
"These are the mechs of our ancestors." Sang Pu's voice was full of nostalgia for his ancestors.
Seven rusty mechs were placed in the ancestral hall. These mechs were all huge, at least 20 meters tall, like steel giants. The thick armor made them all look bloated, like a lump of iron. It was obvious that the mechanical manufacturing back then was still rather backward, so they had to use thicker armor to protect the mech pilot.
A mech from 500 years ago was undoubtedly very attractive to Ye Chong. When he found out that the Sang Family Village had seven mechs from 500 years ago, his first request was to see them. The village head agreed without hesitation. Even in some of the mech museums in the Five Galaxies, the most primitive mechs were only 300 years old. Now, he was looking at seven mechs from 500 years ago. How could Ye Chong not be excited?
The internal structure of these mechs was primitive and simple. There was no hydraulic buffer system, and the internal wiring was connected by metal wires instead of mech connections. There was no holographic scanning system, only primitive radars …
A mech like this was a far cry from the lowest level Raven mech. However, Ye Chong was still excited. In fact, every mech engineer would be excited when they saw these Progenitor mechs. This was a rare opportunity.
These mechs did not give Ye Chong any new ideas, but Ye Chong still climbed up and down, from the inside to the inside, to take a look. In the eyes of a professional like him, these mechs could no longer be described as simple. But for things from 500 years ago, no matter who it was, they wouldn't be demanding more.
Sang Pu asked, "Can these mechs still be used?" He looked at Ye Chong expectantly. The seven mechs had been here for five hundred years. In the eyes of the Sang family, they should be warriors, not historical relics.
Ye Chong shook his head. "No. It's too rusty. Some of the important joints have rusted due to lack of maintenance. Besides, it uses a type of organic fuel. I'm not familiar with it. " In fact, Ye Chong found it incredible that a mech could be preserved so well after 500 years.
Ye Chong's words disappointed Sang Pu. Ye Chong could even see the disappointment in his eyes. However, it was the truth, and Ye Chong could not do anything about it.
As he finished, Ye Chong immediately thought of Han Jia's energy problem. The backup energy cells were almost depleted. If he could not find a suitable energy source soon, Han Jia would end up like these mechs here.
However, this could not be rushed. There was no way to recharge the energy cells here. The only way was to find a new energy source.
For now, he could only use Han Jia less often. It was best to save his life in critical moments.
The people here could live well without mechs, right? Ye Chong did not believe that he would lose his basic ability to survive once he lost his mech.
Soon, it was time for dinner. Sang Pu brought Ye Chong to the village head's house. Ye Chong saw the woman from the group that brought him here. Ye Chong nodded at her and sat beside Sang Pu.
Sang Ling snorted and ignored Ye Chong, continuing to eat her food.
Since the other party was ignoring him, Ye Chong did not bother to speak. Instead, he nodded at the village head. The village head chuckled. "This place is simple, and there's nothing much to entertain you. Please don't mind, sir!"
Ye Chong was used to such pleasantries. "You're too kind. You can call me Ye. "
Sang De chuckled, "If that's the case, I'll call you Yezi. You don't have to call me 'sir' or 'sir' either. Just call me Village Chief."
Ye Chong had a piece of steak on his plate, and a small pile of blue fruits. Ye Chong did not know what animal the meat came from, but he recognized the blue fruits. On the other side of the river, there were many plants with these blue fruits on their heads.
Ye Chong could not help but pick up a small blue fruit and studied it closely. It was different from when it was growing on top of the plant, as it had lost its blue glow.
Seeing Ye Chong's interest in the fruit, Sang Pu introduced, "This is our main food, we call it the blue fruit. Hmm, try it, it's not bad. This steak is the meat of the reticulated rhinoceros that you killed today. The meat of the reticulated rhinoceros is fresh and tender, and tastes good. "
Ye Chong tossed a blue fruit into his mouth, and a delicious aroma spread in his mouth, with a hint of sweetness. Ye Chong tossed another one. To Ye Chong, this place was much better than the trash planet. He had never tasted such delicious fruits back on the trash planet.
Sang De and Sang Pu could not help but smile at Ye Chong's enjoyment, except for Sang Ling, who was still as cold as ever.
Ye Chong looked at the steak on his plate, and took out his dagger, ready to cut into it.
Sang Pu saw the dagger in Ye Chong's hand, and his eyes brightened. He asked urgently, "Ye, can you show me your weapon?"
