I have to get lucky right away.

Chapter 106 Why are they human beings?
After bidding farewell to the alert Silver Wrist, Feng Xue sat in the driver's seat and said in surprise:

"I thought mythical beasts were rare."

"Of course, mythical beasts are very rare." Sarah immediately gave an affirmative answer. Feng Xue was even more surprised when she heard this:

"So, that young man was a lucky guy?"

"No, that parrot's beastification was less than 70%, making it not a true beast. It couldn't be controlled through the beast taming system. It's presumed to have employed the more dangerous Living Synchronization technique, exchanging somatic cells with a highly beastified individual to forcibly activate the [Special Protocol]. This technique is extremely dangerous and has a high probability of causing functional disorder in the nanounits, commonly known as 'beastification disease.'"

"Another new term. It sounds like turning into a beast? Or thinking of yourself as a beast... um, cyberpsychosis, right?" Feng Xue used his own cognition to understand Sarah's words, but his hands kept fine-tuning the rudder to ensure that Liu Yunxi kept moving along the sea chart unfolded by Sarah.

Compared to old-fashioned sailboats, Liu Yunxi could reach a "high-speed" speed of 50km/h after activating the demonic propulsion mode. Although its endurance was not good, at least he saw the so-called island around four o'clock in the afternoon.

Compared to the island they landed on before, this island is obviously much larger. From a distance, it looks like the pointed soft hat worn by wizards in Harry Potter. In the center of the surrounding platform slightly above sea level, there is a towering hill with lush vegetation on the hill. From a distance, one can see some traces of artificial excavation.

As the distance got closer, Feng Xue even saw some wooden houses and canoes docked on the shore.

(Probably like this)
It seemed that Feng Xue's arrival had attracted attention. Faintly, one could see many people starting to run. More and more people were gathering on the shore. Feng Xue immediately became alert:

"These can be scanned anyway, right?"

"Assuming they are a new generation of indigenous secondary civilization humans, they should be given the most basic human rights protections in accordance with the Ocean Exploration and Interaction Act." Sarah coldly rejected Feng Xue's proposal. Feng Xue's face turned completely black.

"Why am I a humanoid primate? Are they second-level civilized humans? How are they more civilized than me?"

Listening to Feng Xue's somewhat frantic speech, Sarah still said in that calm tone:

"This isn't a question of civilization level, but rather a discrepancy between your life form and the definition of human in my database. To put it in a way you can understand, your DNA is less than 99.4% similar to human DNA. Simply put, the difference between these indigenous people and modern humans is solely in knowledge, while the difference between you and modern humans is race. However, you still belong to the family Hominidae, genus Homo, and race Hominus, so there's no reproductive isolation from modern humans. It's speculated that your third-generation descendants will have DNA similarity exceeding 99.9%, meeting the definition of human and enjoying basic human rights."

"You mean, those of you who have nano-units in your bodies that can fuse with animals, your DNA is still 99.9% similar to each other?"

Feng Xue just felt that the dog was playing tricks on him, but Sarah controlled the dog seriously and nodded:

"Nanocells, synaptic beasts, and other factors don't alter human DNA expression, just like using artificial plasma or an artificial heart doesn't affect race determination. Furthermore, determining race isn't solely based on DNA. I'm simply giving you an example you can understand based on the information in your database."

At this point, Sarah suddenly changed the subject, turned her head towards the island, and said, "Rather than discussing racial issues with me, I suggest you turn your attention to these natives. They don't seem as friendly as the pirates before."

"Are you defining me as a pirate now?" Feng Xue rolled his eyes, but still diverted his attention.

At this time, seven or eight middle-aged men with bronze skin were paddling two canoes. They were only wearing a rag and holding wooden spears in their hands. The more they looked, the more they looked like the African natives in the documentary - except for their skin color.

"Who are you?"

A man standing at the bow holding a spear asked loudly. To Feng Xue's surprise, this guy spoke Chinese even more standardly than the young man named Meka!
Feng Xue took a closer look and suddenly found the "highlight" -

Although this group of people were holding wooden spears, the tops of the spears were tied with very sharp metal spearheads. The image reflected light like a mirror. It was hard to imagine that such metal products would appear in the hands of a group of indigenous people who were still using canoes and harpoons to fish.

"We are adventurers passing through, hoping to stop and rest." Feng Xue answered loudly while observing. The man standing at the bow seemed to relax a little after hearing Feng Xue's standard Chinese, but he still raised his spear and said:
"If you want to enter the kingdom of the Weather Goddess, you must offer a sacrifice!"

"Weather Goddess?" Although Feng Xue was a little skeptical whether this was just a simple indigenous belief, he still followed the qualities of a Taoist practitioner and started practicing the art of observing the weather. As his magic power condensed, a ray of light spread across his vision.

In Feng Xue's vision, the place where the crowd gathered on the distant island was condensing a colorful aura of willpower. These willpowers were like the water flow in a siphon experiment, constantly climbing up along the mountain in the center of the island. The color was constantly purified in the process, and finally formed a pure canopy above the island, while the complex part slid down the hillside again and finally rolled into the sea.

"There really is a virtual god? It looks like he's quite popular!"

Feng Xue felt that the scene was a little subtle for a moment. Although with the method of nurturing the virtual god that he mastered, as long as the method was proper, he could nurture a virtual god in a few years, but that also required continuous collection of incense, and continuous offerings and purification to achieve it.

Although this island is not small, it can only support about 1,800 people at most. For such a small number of people to support a virtual god of this scale, either their ancestors have believed in it for thousands of years, or everyone has unwavering faith in this deity.

Realizing that their beliefs were probably not ordinary pure, Feng Xue immediately spoke:

"We are willing to respect your beliefs. What kind of tribute does the great weather goddess require?"

While saying this, Feng Xue quietly moved closer to Fina. If this guy dared to talk about living sacrifice, he would knock him out immediately and let Gouzi go in!
However, when the man heard Feng Xue's words, he just smiled slightly, revealing a mouthful of uneven teeth.

"The weather goddess loves rare minerals and fresh catches. Spices and salt are also great!"
