The Plant Master Becomes A Mute Sub-Beast: Farming And Laying Eggs
Chapter 192: Using Knowledge to Repay DebtsSpatial Spirit lost a large amount of spiritual spring water last night to heal Sane and Kaelen, needing two more hours to recover compared to usual. Therefore, the time Edward could come out would have to be late afternoon.
Sane and Kaelen did not want to stay indoors, carrying their remaining injuries outside to breathe some fresh air. The first place they went to was the communal house of the Golden Lion tribe. After greeting the young Priest alongside Chief Leon, Kaelen asked politely:
"Dear respected Priest, I am Kaelen. May I know your honorable name?"
"My name is Jasper, you can just call me Jasper, do not add honorifics. I feel very embarrassed hearing it." The young Priest scratched his head to say embarrassedly, trying to keep his eyes from gluing onto the other person’s mate. He did not expect to see Leon staring straight without even blinking once right after turning his head.
Jasper saw the pressure around Sane getting lower with each passing moment, immediately swinging his hand to punch Leon into having a panda eye. He let out a dry laugh to say:
"This guy has never known how to keep his manners, please do not mind him, haha~"
Damn it, the appearance alongside the aura of this couple perfectly matched the tastes of Sub-Beasts and beastmen on the Eastern continent, truly being two walking targets!
Kaelen smiled to nod, showing a sympathetic expression.
"This is Sane, my mate. You must have already known our identities from my clan members, I will ask for permission not to introduce us again." Kaelen slowly uttered every single word, his voice being extremely soft and gentle. This was the sound that Sub-Beasts all over the Eastern continent could not produce no matter how hard they tried. Jasper saw Leon about to be unable to hold back from turning his head to look again, having to use both hands to hold Leon’s face to make the man look towards Jasper.
Jasper smiled to say: "You do not need to be so polite, we are not constrained by these formalities. You must have something to tell us, right?"
Kaelen nodded: "It is like this, we have heard from our clan members about paying everyone the corresponding supplies for risking your lives entering the Illusion Forest to find my family. However, I will speak frankly that we still do not know the way back home currently, therefore there is probably no way to repay the promised supplies. However, I can provide the methods to create supplies."
"Methods to create supplies?" Jasper was slightly surprised, his arms suddenly loosening. Leon immediately regained his freedom. However, he did not dare to look directly at Kaelen like before to avoid getting his remaining eye punched black and blue.
"That is right, the things I can teach everyone currently are weaving cloth, making pottery alongside farming. Each tribe can only learn one subject, please discuss with each other to see how to divide them reasonably."
Jasper and Leon were frightened to the point of falling to sit on the ground, both springing up simultaneously afterwards to wave their hands continuously:
"No no no no! That will not do! The things you offer are too precious, we cannot accept them!"
Kaelen shook his head: "They are not precious at all. We would have all died in the mouths of magical beasts without everyone, not being able to sit here to talk anymore. We still feel that is not enough, but we can only temporarily offer that much due to needing to quickly find the way back."
Jasper and Leon almost dropped to their knees on the ground. Knowledge was always extremely precious, the knowledge that Kaelen just offered being the most precious among precious things. They felt both joyful mixed with fearful.
"Our three tribes are all small tribes, probably encountering disasters if holding these things in our hands. How about you just wait until returning to the tribe to convert them into primeval stones to pay us."
Kaelen and Sane looked at each other, harboring a new judgment about the power distribution mechanism in the Eastern continent in their hearts. It seemed to also be the big fish eating the small fish, anyone having harder fists possessing the right to speak.
Sane bared his teeth to smile, saying: "One tribe holding the core knowledge will naturally easily be coveted, but what if one hundred or one thousand tribes know it together? Could it be that those big tribes would run to attack hundreds or thousands of those tribes to rob the knowledge that everyone already knows?"
Jasper and Leon were stunned, looking at Sane with some disbelief afterwards. Leon gulped his saliva: "Should such precious knowledge not be kept private? The tribes receiving the grace of the God of Knowledge always keep their knowledge secret, not letting outsiders know."
Sane shook his head to show disagreement: "The things you need to keep secret are the core military secrets of the tribe, not these things. There are things that guarantee more safety the more they are revealed outside."
Sane also just grasped this point after passing through the three tribes of Bramble, Fang alongside Cinder. He used to think Kaelen was too kind-hearted before, but Sane suddenly realized that keeping more things would only push the tribe into a miserable situation after learning tribe management experiences from the Cinder Chief.
Just strictly keeping the military secrets and core technologies was enough, you should just teach the things that can be taught to others. Doing so would share the target scope of the enemies while receiving a lifelong good reputation.
Kaelen looked at the two people being heavily shocked on the other side, knowing they would not take in anything else being said right now, therefore standing up to take his leave first: "You should just think carefully, come find us after thinking it through. It is best to be a bit quick because we cannot stay here for too long."
Edward collapsing the Temple to kill the Temple Master would certainly cause a no small uproar. They needed to find the way back to the tribe as soon as possible.
The couple decided to take a stroll around the Golden Lion tribe after exiting the communal house. Aaron and Evan followed closely on both sides alongside a number of Warriors, immediately shielding their two leaders tightly as soon as they saw any Sub-Beast or beastman wandering close. Kaelen touched his own face, looking at Sane’s face again, secretly thinking whether to make a few masks to wear.
"Chief, Priest, Captain! I will fight in the arena later, can you come to observe and give me some pointers?"
An Earth-attribute Sub-Beast warrior ran over from afar, using puppy eyes to look at the leaders. Sane and Kaelen also wanted to know the cultivation methods of the martial arts practitioners here, therefore nodding in agreement.
They chose a quite spacious spot near the arena, the surroundings being tightly surrounded just a moment later. Aaron silently wiped his sweat drops. Fortunately, there was a precedent before, everyone in the Golden Lion tribe knew the people of the Crimson tribe hated using mates as spoils of war the most, therefore no one was bold enough to come challenge the two of them.
The match in the arena quickly started. The two sides fought a few rounds to get used to the combat rhythm, then only entering the real fight afterwards. The two sides fought to a draw at first, until the Martial Artist of the Golden Lion tribe summoned his Martial weapon.
Kaelen widened his eyes while watching the process of that Martial Artist drawing the Martial weapon. Sane excitedly leaned into Kaelen’s ear, speaking softly:
"Look, does it look like the natal magical weapons in those cultivation movies in your magic mirror?"
Kaelen shook his head: "They do not look alike, natal magical weapons are forged from external materials and then contracted using blood, while Martial weapons are weapons condensed from the martial power of the martial arts practitioners themselves. The similar point is probably that the owners will also suffer a corresponding backlash when these two types of weapons are damaged."
Kaelen saw his Earth-attribute Warrior about to lose, unable to hold back his itchy mouth to blurt out a sentence:
"Use Divine Energy to wrap the weapon!"
Clang!
The two swords collided in midair, the sword in the hands of the Crimson warrior vibrating slightly, the soil mixed with stone layer wrapped outside the sword blade slowly cracking to fall down. The Golden Lion Martial Artist was also knocked back by the rebound force from that sword, continuously retreating dozens of steps backward.
The Crimson Warrior on the stage seemed to have found a new horizon, continuing to use dirt and rocks to wrap his sword blade. This was merely a temporary measure, the Crimson Warrior ultimately still losing by a step because the Magical Energy was excessively consumed.
The winning Golden Lion Sub-Beast jumped off the stage, standing with his hands on his hips in front of Kaelen: "Hey, do not think you have the right to break the rules just because you are beautiful! Who allowed you to prompt from below?"
Kaelen embarrassedly rubbed his nose, apologizing continuously: "Sorry sorry, I did not do it on purpose. I usually give them pointers during training, just blurting it out out of habit just now."
The eyes of the Golden Lion Sub-Beast lit up: "Does that mean you are the one teaching them martial arts? Fight a match with me!"
Kaelen shook his head: "I am currently injured, unable to get on the arena. Let us make an appointment for another time."
The Sub-Beast puffed his cheeks to pout: "Oh, alright then."
The Crimson Sub-Beast only dragged his exhausted body over at this time, his eyes shining brightly like starlight:
"My Lord, your method is truly effective, however it consumes a bit too much Magical Energy..."
Sane nodded: "Being effective is good enough, we will slowly research the rest later."
He led his mate away from this place after speaking, because Kaelen’s complexion was not very good, perhaps Kaelen was already tired. The two people still had injuries inside their bodies anyway, thus they should rest more.
The lunch today was still cooked by the Crimson Warriors themselves, then brought over to eat with everyone in the Golden Lion tribe. The people of the two tribes had gradually become closer to each other since Aaron defeated Leon.
Kaelen and Sane stayed to eat with Aaron and Evan, while as for Draven, he planted his stake right inside his own research room, his meals also being brought in by the team members to help. Kaelen frowned:
"He will collapse sooner or later if he just buries his head in research without eating or sleeping."
Aaron nodded: "I will force him to go to sleep tonight." He tore a piece of meat to bring to Evan’s mouth, then only saying: "How do you feel about the match? How much did you understand about the difference between Martial Artists and Warriors?"
Sane said: "I can understand a little bit, still needing to observe more alongside engaging in real combat a few times to be able to understand clearly." He was very anxious to heal his injuries really quickly to get on the arena to fight a few matches already.
Kaelen spoke again:
"The method of using Divine Energy combined with weapons is something I only thought of a few days ago, ruining six tiger-fang swords without success. Today counts as the first successful time. The effect is also quite good but unstable, leading to consuming too much Magical Energy. It would be great if we could use something to shoulder a portion for the Warriors."
Sane nodded in agreement: "I see those magical weapons in your magic mirror are also good, if only we could learn weapon forging..."
Finnick was burying his head to eat meat, hearing that to snap his head up: "There is, there is! There is a weapon forging book inside Brother Ryder’s space, we can tell Brother Edward to take it out when he wakes up later!"
Aaron and Evan heard but understood nothing, while Chloe exclaimed: "I already said your family’s luck is very good but you just do not believe it."
Kaelen and Sane looked at each other, feeling the words Chloe said also made quite a bit of sense. However, they kept having the feeling that another unlucky thing would be waiting for them exactly every time they just achieved some good thing...
