Swallowing the Stars: Realm of Control

Chapter 3 Opportunity

"The way these guys are looking at me... it seems that going back to the village with them might not be safe." Luo Feng became even more cautious.

These guys were chattering away, and he couldn't understand what they were saying, but their eyes were hard to deceive, especially him.

Subconsciously, he sensed the Qi Spirit Slave Seal within his body again, then smiled at the captain. When their eyes met, Luo Feng revealed a 'friendly' goodwill.

But in their eye contact, it was clear they were trying to discern something from him.

A thought flashed through Luo Feng's mind: if all else fails, then he could try using the Qi Spirit Slave Seal to refine this archer into his second clone.

Dano didn't speak, but he was carefully examining the life before him.

"Although we've never seen visitors from outer space, I only awakened my Qi sense after obtaining the Spirit Aperture Pearl. The Spirit Aperture Pearl... When the time comes, let's take him to see the clan leader. Whether he's a visitor from outer space or not, a single test will tell."

Seeing Luo Feng's smile, he immediately smiled back.

Luo Feng saw other thoughts in this guy's eyes.

Now that they've followed us here, if they try to escape, they'll probably be captured immediately.

Once he entered this tiger's den, the only thing that could save him was that Qi Spirit Slave Seal.

About five minutes later, Luo Feng followed them to the village buildings. A group of twenty-one figures stood at the entrance of the village, seemingly there to welcome them, but more so out of curiosity to see aliens.

All eyes were on him, and the twenty-one figures had different expressions.

Luo Feng glanced around and saw that among the twenty-one figures present, there was actually one whose aura was comparable to the one beside him. However, this one's aura was slightly weaker than the one beside him.

Looking at the form of this race, Luo Feng could tell that, in terms of age and aptitude, the one beside him was older and had probably cultivated for a longer time.

Some of them are still in child form, but the one next to me is clearly in adult form and is quite old.

Hello everyone.

Luo Feng greeted them in his own way, trying to make his smile as friendly as possible.

As soon as he finished speaking, Dano, who was standing next to Luo Feng, also spoke up: "Everyone, this friend from another race has just arrived here. Because of the language barrier, we can't communicate for the time being. I'll take him to my place first, and when the chieftain returns, I'll take him to see the chieftain. With the chieftain's extensive knowledge, he might know his origins."

"Captain, there are rumors circulating in the village about extraterrestrial visitors. This guy looks somewhat like us, but he's completely different from us. Is it possible that he's an extraterrestrial visitor?"

"It doesn't look like him. More than sixty years ago, I was fortunate enough to see a visitor from outer space. He didn't look like him at all. The visitor from outer space had three eyes and a very strange appearance. That time, it was because my Maoshan Village contributed that visitor from outer space to the mountain god that my Maoshan Village had the opportunity to produce several cultivators."

As soon as a middle-aged man opened his mouth, an elderly-looking man stood up to retort.

"but."

He added in a deep voice, "We still need to be cautious. I've traveled a long way, and there's a saying that those life forms that don't resemble us are very likely extraterrestrial visitors. Dano, you need to keep an eye on him and make sure he doesn't get away."

As he spoke, he sized up Luo Feng.

Dano nodded: "Don't worry, he can't escape. Whether he is or not, we'll wait for the chief to return."

He glanced at the crowd and said, "Everyone, disperse. Those who need to patrol the mountains, patrol the mountains; those who need to stand guard, stand guard. Don't let your guard down. The ferocious beasts in the village have been causing quite a stir lately. We can't let them eat the village's livestock."

After Dano finished speaking, everyone made way for him. He looked at Luo Feng and gestured for Luo Feng to follow him.

Luo Feng still deliberately put on a smile.

These guys have questionable judgment, but now that he's here, there's no escaping him. His only hope lies in the Qi Spirit Slave Seal in his hand.

If this thing is unusable, then we can only wait until nightfall to find another chance to escape.

Seeing that no one else had followed, Luo Feng secretly breathed a sigh of relief. A solo opportunity was exactly what he wanted.

The buildings on both sides of the path are in the style of courtyards, each with its own fence.

The wood was dark reddish-brown, and it was clearly not an ordinary piece of wood.

Each piece of wood on the fence bears obvious claw marks, scratches, and other traces, which is the best test.

Looking at the tops of these vertical poles, it's clear that they were cut down with great force, which gives you an idea of ​​how hard the wood is.

His gaze drifted into the distance.

Luo Feng then noticed that there were more than 30 households in the vicinity; in another area of ​​the distant mountains, there was another group of buildings.

It could be another village, or a different branch of the same village.

Walking along the path between the houses, Luo Feng saw that there were some traps and mechanisms set up outside the courtyard fences. Further away, almost touching the grass, there were some interwoven lines that connected to the eaves and hung with bells.

Luo Feng only noticed these things after observing the surrounding traps.

Near the house are attack traps, while at a greater distance are warning and early warning setups.

One can imagine that this village must have been frequently attacked by wild animals.

That explains the marks on the courtyard railing.

Arriving at a courtyard that looked more "luxurious" and larger than the others, the surrounding fences appeared smoother, the wood of the railings more sturdy, and there were some decorations that made it look more comfortable than the other courtyards.

There are two small wooden buildings in the courtyard, each with two floors and three rooms on each floor. The houses are constructed with wooden railings, making them more upscale than the other houses.

As soon as you enter the courtyard, a unique aroma of meat wafts over.

Glug glug.

Luo Feng's stomach rumbled again.

It turned out that several large pieces of dried meat were hanging around the outer wall of the house, and the special aroma was coming from there. The aroma made people's mouths water.

Luo Feng saw three figures emerge from the courtyard: one appeared to be a woman, and the other two looked like children.

It must be this guy's woman and child.

Judging from the appearance of the creatures in this village, the one with delicate features in front of me should be considered good-looking, and it also conforms to human aesthetics.

Women's horns are shorter and shorter, while children's horns haven't grown in yet.

"Belle, this is a friend from another race. I've temporarily placed him in our home, and we'll take him to the chieftain when he returns," Dano explained to the woman.

Luo Feng saw a smile on the woman's face, along with some curiosity, while the two children were somewhat timid.

Luo Feng responded with a smile.

"Go and prepare some food," Dano instructed his wife, having also heard Luo Feng's stomach rumbling.

After the woman with the child turned and went into a house, Luo Feng followed Dano into one of the other two houses.

The room was furnished like a simple meeting room, with a long table on which were some shriveled dried fruit and strips of dried meat. Perhaps due to the lack of moisture, the dried meat strips had a much milder flavor.

Dano sat down and gestured for Luo Feng to sit down as well. He then handed Luo Feng a large piece of dried meat, saying, "#￥#@".

"Thank you." Luo Feng smiled.

There was no smell of meat from afar, but as soon as it was brought to my mouth, that unique aroma immediately wafted out.

When Luo Feng put the jerky in his mouth, he was surprised to find that although it was hard, it wasn't dry at all. Instead, it felt like eating a hard ice cream. He bit down hard, and the meaty aroma slurped into his taste buds.

"This smells really good." The aroma of this meat is better than most of the food he has ever eaten.

After taking a few crunchy bites, the meat went down my throat, and a warm current flowed out of my stomach, finally relieving the continuous loss of energy in my body.

Luo Feng noticed that Dano had been staring at him intently, and then paused slightly.

Perfect timing, there's no one around right now, maybe this is a chance to try out the Qi Spirit Slave Seal.
