The old man kept staring at Lu Chen's expression and saw that Lu Chen did not refute him.
"Lu Chen, since the guards in this city can't stop you anyway, why don't we attack in a few days? I'll take you to the Mutant Lands to have a look," the old man suddenly said.
Lu Chen narrowed his eyes slightly. This guy actually wanted to let him enter the Mutant Lands?
His guts were extraordinarily big.
However, if Lu Chen really wanted to break through the defense line and enter the Mutant Lands, he would have done so long ago.
Perhaps that was why the old man had invited him.
Lu Chen pondered for a moment, then stood up and stepped on the fire to extinguish it. "Lead the way."
After passing through the city gate, countless guards looked at Lu Chen nervously, but Lu Chen ignored them and followed the old man into the Mutant City.
The old man prepared a carriage, and the two of them left the Mutant City directly.
For the next half a month, the old man took Lu Chen all the way to the Mutant Lands.
Their world was completely different from the human world. It could be said that it was barren with swamps and jungles everywhere, and wild beasts ran rampant.
Outside a village, four or five huge beasts were attacking a village, and hundreds of Mutant Women were resisting desperately.
At the edge of a swamp, a group of Mutants was trying to fill the swamp and use it for farming. Suddenly, a few huge tentacles sprang out of the swamp and swept four or five people directly into the swamp, leaving nothing behind!
There were no large cities in the Mutant Lands, and the largest cities were probably the border areas.
After more than twenty days, Lu Chen saw a different Wuji Continent …
"Why are there so many powerful beasts here?" Lu Chen asked.
The old man said, "The Wuji Continent is full of spirit energy, and the evolution of wild beasts is very common."
"But why are there only wild beasts in the Mutant Lands?" Lu Chen was somewhat puzzled.
The old man smiled slightly. "You've heard of the legend of the origin of Mutants and humans, right? Speaking of which, humans and Mutants should be considered 'one'.
"In fact, 2,800 years ago, humans and Mutants were both struggling to survive the attacks of wild beasts. In order to not be devoured by the powerful wild beasts, both sides once joined forces to fight against the wild beasts.
"After the joint efforts of the two clans, we finally eradicated the wild beasts in the central region of the Wuji Continent and drove them to the wilderness."
"But after that, the two clans had a disagreement because of the division of territories, and finally went their separate ways."
"The humans won the ancient race war, and they chased us to the Wildlands as well. Over the past two thousand years, we've been fighting the beasts and the Heavens and Earth. Our bodies have been constantly strengthening, and our cultivation base has also been increasing. We could have reclaimed our territory, but unfortunately, a God of War appeared in the Human Race. He single-handedly wiped out our thousand years of hard work! "As he spoke, the old man looked at Lu Chen.
Obviously, the God of War he spoke of was Lu Chen.
Lu Chen had never heard of such a history between the two races.
"Lu Chen, if you kill all the defenders, the human army will follow closely behind and break into the city. My Mutant Race won't be able to hold on for much longer. It's a pity that the lives of these people are already difficult, but they still can't escape being exterminated!"
Lu Chen furrowed his brows, feeling a little upset.
When soldiers fought, sometimes they didn't need to know why they were fighting. Obeying was a soldier's duty.
However, when he saw the Mutants here and understood the origin of the two races, Lu Chen finally understood that the struggle between the two races was nothing more than "survival".
Since it was for survival, there was no right or wrong.
After a long silence, Lu Chen sighed. "Old man, who are you?"
To have the courage to meet Lu Chen alone and bring Lu Chen to inspect the situation of the people, this old man was definitely not simple.
"Father of the Mutant Race, Strange Stone."
Lu Chen was not surprised. "Aren't you afraid that I'll kill you?"
"Hahaha, the Mutant Race is about to be exterminated. What's the difference between killing and not killing? For us Mutants, peace is the only way out. As the father of the nation, it's only right that I die for the people."
Lu Chen sighed. "I'm just a commoner. I can't make decisions for the Human Race."
"No, we're not talking peace with the Human Race. We're talking to you!" Strange Stone said. "As long as you're willing to stop, we can consider what to do next!"
It was unheard of for a nation to talk peace with a human.
Lu Chen looked at the dark sky in front of him. Swamps were everywhere, and miasma filled the air. Lu Chen shook his head. "If it were the Human Race, it would be difficult for them to survive in this place."
"Lu Chen, I, on behalf of the Mutant Race, beg you to let us live!" Strange Stone's voice finally sounded emotional.
Lu Chen looked at Strange Stone and kept silent for a long time.
Suddenly, he laughed self-mockingly. "Ah, Strange Stone, you're right. You're indeed a man who doesn't keep his words."
Strange Stone's brain turned quickly. He quickly understood Lu Chen's meaning.
Strange Stone knelt down heavily in front of Lu Chen. His voice trembled. "Even if you don't keep your words, it's for the sake of the common people!"
Lu Chen hurriedly helped Strange Stone up. "You risked your life to see me for the common people. Lu Chen has admired you for a long time. I can't accept Strange Stone's kneeling!"
Perhaps the Mutant Race and the Human Race didn't know that in the Mutant World, on a small road beside a desolate swamp, someone had already decided the fate of the two races!
Lu Chen stopped!
Soon, the Mutant Race sent an envoy to the Human Race to talk peace. As the defeated party, the Mutant Race retreated two hundred li, giving up a large area for cultivation.
Moreover, the Mutant Race had to offer a large amount of beast nuclei and food to the Saint Hall every year.
They had to move into a more desolate and dangerous area to live.
The two nations finally signed the armistice agreement. The Human Race was celebrating.
However, the Tian Family found that Lu Chen hadn't returned.
A few days later, a group of Mutant messengers sent a letter.
The letter was written by Lu Chen. In the letter, he only said one thing. He was going to stay in the Mutant World and wouldn't return.
"Sir Tian, here are 170,000 beast nuclei. Sir War God asked us to send them over." The messenger opened a few large boxes. "Sir War God said that 100,000 beast nuclei would be given to the Tian Family and 70,000 beast nuclei would be given to the Lu Family. He also asked the Tian Family to take good care of his parents and sister."
Tian Ying looked at the beast nuclei in shock. Finally, he sighed with regret. "Chen 'er."
… … …
In front of an endless swamp, thousands of Mutants anxiously looked ahead.
A white figure flashed past. In the largest swamp, seven or eight huge tentacles suddenly appeared.
Lu Chen shouted and shot a spear Qi into the depths of the swamp.
A deafening wail sounded. Not long after, a green liquid emerged from the swamp, dyeing the swamp dark green.
The seven or eight tentacles drooped down weakly.
Lu Chen grabbed a tentacle, dragged the monster out of the swamp, and took the beast nuclei with a spear.
Then Lu Chen turned around and said to the Mutants behind him. "This place has been cleaned up. This big mudfish tastes good. It's enough for you to eat for a while. After you transform this place, you can farm here in the future."
"Thank, thank you White-clothed War God!" Everyone was about to thank him. When they looked up, they found that Lu Chen had disappeared.
In the endless mountains, the spirit energy was abundant. Wild beasts ran rampant around, and no one dared to go deep.
Lu Chen walked into a cave by the stream.
After entering the cave, Lu Chen used a rope to pull a boulder to block the entrance.
With Lu Chen's strength, it was reasonable to say that he didn't need to be so cautious. The reason why he blocked the entrance today was that today would be his first time decomposing the spirit nuclei!
