Chapter 88: Caveman Leader (Mutant)

Ram shook his head. "The more people that go, the harder it'll be to stay undetected. I've got this. Just trust me."

With that decision made, Ram swiftly collected his equipment and readied himself to depart.

Having previously surveyed the area with his Spiritual Eye, he was aware of the caveman tribe's location.

Without further delay, he called upon Ling'er and activated Bio-Armor, merging with Groot, as he ventured into the shadows.

Since Ming Yue was of little assistance to him, he entrusted her to Mai's care before parting ways with the group.

Ram moved in silence, the bioluminescent glow from the unusual plants casting eerie shadows around him.

With the increase in attributes from bio-armor, his speed was greatly increased, it didn't take long before he reached the spot where he had encountered the special tribe of cavemen.

The caveman tribe was gathered in a small clearing, the members huddling together around a crude fire.

The tribe's leader stood at the center—a tall, slightly more evolved caveman whose features were more refined than the rest.

His eyes gleamed with a hint of intelligence, though his body still retained the rugged appearance of his kind.

Ram used his Spiritual Eye once more to examine the leader. Sure enough, the Species Evolution Mastery ability was still there, just as he remembered.

[ Name: Caveman Leader (Mutant)]

[ Race: Cavemen]

[ Level: Black Iron]

[ Quality: Ordinary]

[ Physique: 2.3]

[ Spirit: 0.7]

[ Introduction: Ordinary wild monsters, flexible in shape, can use crude weapons to fight and distribute worldwide.]

[ Racial Characteristics:

Half-Drow Bloodline (Unawaken): Aggressive in nature with feral instincts, often becoming enraged during battle. When injured, gain 5% attack speed and damage bonus.

Herd Mentality: Often work best in groups, relying on their numbers for strength. When surrounded by their kin, they become more confident and powerful. For every nearby ally of the same race, they gain a 0.5% increase in defense and morale, up to a maximum of 25%.

Rapid Reproduction: Increase reproduction rate and growth rate by an additional 100%.]

[ Innate Skill:

Species Evolution Mastery: Grants the leader and its subordinates a 1% increase in all attributes for every two subordinates of the same species within a 100-meter radius, up to a maximum of 50% for 60 seconds.

After every successful battle, there's a 15% chance that nearby subordinates or itself will gain evolution points and evolve, breaking their species limitations to undergo a species-specific mutation, resulting in stat increases or a new skill.]

Satisfied with his target, Ram took a deep breath.

As he examined the caveman leader's characteristics, it was clear that the reason for its mutation stemmed from the trace of a Half-Drow bloodline coursing through its veins.

Cavemen were not naturally unable to inherit such a powerful bloodline like Dark Elfs, so the most likely explanation was that this tribe had been the subject of one of the Half-Drow's experiments, an attempt to create their own kind of hybrid warriors.

However, the experiment seemed to have failed. Instead of evolving into a mid-level race like the Half-Drow mages, the cavemen had remained largely primitive.

Despite this, the leader still carried the Drow bloodline, dormant but potent, within its body. It had not yet fully awakened, but the potential was there, just waiting to be tapped.

"This is it," Ram thought. This caveman leader, with his innate ability, could be the key to turning the tide of their mission.

Focusing on his spiritual power, Ram made his move. He had to act fast, so as not to alert the rest of the tribe.

With a subtle command, the sword leaves floating around him shot forward, their edges gleaming in the dim light.

The attack was swift and precise, aimed directly at the caveman leader's abdomen, without giving it much time to react.

The sword leaves tore through the air and plunged into the caveman's stomach, creating a large, gaping wound.

The leader staggered and collapsed to the ground with a low, guttural moan, its body spasming as blood pooled beneath it.

The surrounding cavemen froze, momentarily startled by the sudden violence. But when they saw their leader fall, they panicked.

Their primitive instincts took over, and with terrified roars, they scattered into the trees, disappearing into the night.

Ram didn't bother with the rest of the tribe; they weren't important.

His focus was entirely on the leader, who was now lying on the ground, motionless and bleeding profusely.

Without hesitation, he knelt beside the fallen creature and placed his hand over the wound, channeling his life energy into the caveman's body.

As the life energy flowed from Ram's palm, the caveman's body began to respond.

The bleeding stopped almost immediately, and the torn flesh started to mend itself.

New muscle and skin rapidly grew over the wound, sealing the injury completely in a matter of seconds.

Within moments, the caveman leader's body was whole again, the only evidence of the attack being the bloodstains on its fur.

Ram marveled at the effectiveness of his life energy, even on a creature as primitive as this.

It only took 10 points of life energy to heal the caveman leader from near death. If the others saw this, they would have been stunned at the sheer speed and power of the healing.

However, despite the healing, the caveman leader did not wake up. Its chest rose and fell slowly, but it remained unconscious.

Ram frowned, realizing that healing the physical wounds was not enough. The leader's body was restored, but its spirit had been weakened by the sudden attack. "It's not enough," Ram muttered to himself.

He needed to do more.

With a grunt, he grabbed the caveman leader by the arm and dragged it away from the clearing, far from the rest of the tribe.

Once he was certain they were alone, he sat down beside the unconscious creature and prepared to take the next step.

He placed both hands on the caveman leader's chest, this time channeling both his life energy and spiritual power into its body.

Ram knew from experience that these energies could affect monsters similarly to how they worked on Wood Spirits.

However, this time it was different—he had never tried something like this on a monster with a unique ability before, and he needed to be cautious.

This caveman leader was a rare find, and he couldn't afford to lose it.

As the combined energies flowed into the leader, Ram watched closely for any changes. At first, there was nothing—just the steady rise and fall of the caveman's chest.

But after a few moments, he noticed something subtle. The caveman's muscles began to twitch, and its breathing deepened.

The leader's eyes fluttered open, filled with confusion and fear. Its body was tense, ready to lash out, but it was still weak from the sudden attack and the healing that followed.

Ram, sensing the tension, spoke calmly, trying to ease the creature's instincts. "Easy now," he said, his voice steady but firm.

The caveman leader stared at Ram, its gaze filled with a mix of confusion and recognition.

It could feel the power flowing through it, could sense that this strange being before it was not an enemy—at least, not anymore. Slowly, the tension in its body began to ease.
