Chapter 586

In a new wooden house on the west side of Carlisle port, Williams was stunned to see Sylvia and Victor come in together. Dressed in ordinary people's clothes, with fishing rods and baskets in their hands, they behave casually and look intimate, just like a newly married fisherman couple.

"You like... That, too?" Williams put down his hand ready to salute and asked in some surprise. He often takes his wife and children to experience different lives for fun.

"Why not?" Victor put down his fishing rod, poured the live fish in the basket into the water tank in the house, smiled and said, "it's like a holiday in a fishing village, or the kind with free accommodation."

"Free?" The Regent was full of fog and asked, "do you have to spend money on vacation in the man horse hills?"

Sylvia smiled, opened the chair of the main seat of the solid wood table, sat down and said in the voice of the hostess, "gentlemen, please sit down, but don't expect me to prepare cheese and fish soup for you... And why didn't Roland come?"

"She boarded the golden fleece. The golden fleece left for training in the morning and returned in the afternoon as planned. But up to now, they haven't returned to Hong Kong... Don't wait for her. The princess explained before departure, and we can inform her of the results of our discussion." Marquis goron opened the chair on the left of the table and sat down. He pointed to the first position under the table and said to a middle-aged nobleman in a clerk's uniform, "Warren, that's your seat."

"Thank you, sir. I'll just stand."

When victor and Williams were seated, the middle-aged nobleman stroked his chest and gave a deep breath. "Your Highness, please allow me to introduce myself first. I am the Deputy court clerk of kite castle, viscount Warren Leopold. It is my great honor to report the investigation conclusion of the registry to your highness."

"My colleagues in the registry and I spent 14 days carefully studying the information provided by his highness Randall, had in-depth exchanges with Clark scholars in Borui Kingdom, and preliminarily reached several conclusions to be verified..."

Viscount Valen's speech is clear, well-organized, and the narrative process is very rhythmic. However, the conclusion of the staff of kite castle was nothing new to victor. He even deduced the experiences of the barbarians in the southern continent and the contradictions and entanglements with the orcs based on the materials presented by Andre and tamore.

Church documents record the stories of the gods of the northern barbarians.

One day in ancient times, God Donal incarnated as the first barbarian in history. He married the first beautiful female Orc and evolved a barbarian population. It opened the light of the barbarians' wisdom, made them different from the wild animals, taught them to use fire and imparted their ancient knowledge.

Donal told his barbarian descendants that their mother was actually the embodiment of mother earth. Mother earth is the mother of all things in the world, representing silence and chaos. She is in charge of reproduction and death. She treats creatures walking on the earth equally, whether small mice, giant mammoths, intelligent or ignorant.

Therefore, the barbarians boast that they are the son of the gods and the daughter of the spirits. The barbarian royal family is the direct descendant of the gods and represents the guidance of the father. Due to two different kinds of worship, the barbarians pursued the natural cycle of mother earth, opposed changing the original appearance of the earth, did not plant crops, did not graze cattle and sheep, and made a living by collecting and hunting. At the same time, the barbarians also respect the light of wisdom of the gods and fear the authority of the barbarian royal family. They believe that the earth mother will not respond to the barbarian's prayer, but the barbarian royal family members can communicate with the God Donal and convey the God's will through divination.

Victor did not know whether the barbarian myth was true or false, whether it was deliberately fabricated by the members of the barbarian royal family in order to maintain their ruling position, or imposed on the barbarian by the chosen wizard. He was convinced that although the northern barbarians with semi natural worship and semi divine blood worship belonged to a centralized civilization, they did not pose a direct threat to human city states. On the contrary, the barbarians who lived by gathering and hunting depended very much on the supplies of human city states. The barbarian royal family can firmly control the large and small barbarian tribes by relying on divination and the food support of El city-state, and will inevitably become a vassal race of the wizard city-state.

The barbarian royal family members were eradicated by the Pantheon wizards, and the barbarian civilization immediately collapsed. The barbarian survivors living in the southern continent were unable to rebuild civilization. They had to rely on their stronger and uglier Southern relatives, the orcs.

Orcs and barbarians look different and despise each other, but the number of barbarians is too small. Their individual strength and ferocity ratio are not as good as orcs, and they have become the object of being bullied by orcs. Fortunately, the barbarians have the inheritance of divination. The barbarian shaman has obtained a certain voice in the orc tribe and spread the primitive belief of heaven and earth mother. But this can not fundamentally change the weak position of barbarians.

In the process of spreading faith, enhancing the right to speak and trying to assimilate the half beast, the barbarian shaman must accept the half beast shaman students and teach them the methods of divination and prophecy. They burn the skulls of prey or enemies in a fire and interpret the results of divination according to the cracks in the bones.

The key lies in whether the interpretation answer is accurate. If the interpretation is accurate, the prediction will be effective, and various private goods can be mixed in the prediction; The interpretation is wrong. Shamans are swept away and may be beaten into dogs by tribal members. Obviously, only members of the barbarian royal family have the talent to accurately interpret bone cracks. Ordinary barbarian shamans are no different from their Orc apprentices. By virtue of the number advantage, the success rate of the prediction of the orc shaman overwhelmed the barbarian shaman teacher, and gradually became the privileged class in the tribe.

Whether barbarian shamans or Orc shamans, they must affirm the greatness and sanctity of the spirit and mother earth in order to safeguard their own privileges. However, the orc shaman hates the saying that the heavenly spirit blood is the king of barbarians. If we admit this statement, it means that the barbarians are closer to the God than the orcs, but if we completely deny that the God Donal is the father of the barbarians and orcs, it is tantamount to denying divination and the meaning of Shaman existence.

Therefore, the orc shaman strengthened the worship of the earth mother, respected the natural way of the law of the jungle, did not recognize the so-called Barbarian King, and the tribe adopted the chieftain challenge system of respecting the strong, which fundamentally put an end to the leader hereditary system. There is no power core inherited from generation to generation, which not only enhances the voice of the shaman, but also divides the ethnic groups into large and small tribes. After thousands of years, the orcs and barbarians have not been able to form a strong political power, but also a scattered primitive tribal civilization.

Victor believes that the attempt of the northern barbarians to assimilate the southern barbarians has failed. The belief system spread by the barbarian shaman has shifted, but it can be compatible with ordinary barbarian members. The tribes has the final say in the fist, and the barbarian's strength and quantity are inferior to that of the orcs, and deserve to be subjected to the oppression of the orcs.

The barbarians are actually assimilated by the orcs. Unless the barbarian royal members appear again, it is difficult to reverse this situation!

The barbarian Kingdom on the South Bank of Dahe Bay is human. It still implements the chieftain system of the strong as the king. Its full name should be the alliance between orcs and barbarian tribes, or Gaogen for short.

About 120 years ago, the Borui people perfected the manufacturing technology of large flat bottomed sailboats. It has the advantages of large cargo capacity, smooth navigation and shallow draft. The innovation of shipbuilding technology makes it possible for Borui kingdom to break through the blockade of fishmen in shallow water and land on the south bank. Thirty years later, the flat bottomed ships and warships of the Borui kingdom were changed. The ambitious Lord Borui led 42 new warships to sail into the shallow water area on the South Bank of Dahe Bay from Nanfeng port, and the warship crossbow bow covered the whole shoal.

Facing the giant approaching from the rear, the fishmen in the shallow water area on the south bank were panicked and had no power to fight back, and fled the river one after another. Without the obstruction of the fishman, the Borui landing boat rushed onto the beach smoothly. In thousands of years, the army of the human country set foot on the land of the southern continent for the first time.

The commander of Borui's army, Duke Christopher, organized forces to build docks and fish walls; While sending elite scouts to investigate the surrounding conditions. The scouts found a land suitable for settlement, where there were abundant water and grass, fertile land, large areas of dense primitive forests, and a mixed tribe of orcs and barbarians.

For the sake of land and security, the pioneers of the human kingdom must level the barbarian tribe.

How powerful can a barbarian tribe that pursues the way of nature and relies on hunting for a living? Their population is no more than 7000. Barbarian soldiers use stone axes and spears, and orc soldiers prefer to use their own claws. Their enemies are 60000 well-trained and heavily armed human soldiers, as well as more than 300 knights and 2000 clergy.

The battle of great disparity of strength started at noon, and there was no suspense. The main force of the barbarians was completely wiped out. The army of Borui Kingdom broke through the barbarian stronghold, and the rest of the barbarians fled in all directions.

The Borui people seized the first strategic place. The commander, Duke Christopher, was not dazzled by the easy victory. He knew clearly that there was a barbarian tribe, which would be the second and the third. They must not unite to attack the pioneering land of mankind.

Rivers breed civilization. Barbarian tribes must be built near rivers and lakes. Along the river, the Borui expeditionary army destroyed 18 barbarian tribes and opened up a defense depth of 700 kilometers. The expeditionary army turned around and concentrated on building a pioneer fortress in the pioneering land.

It should be said that Duke Christopher's strategy worked very well. Barbarian tribes with primitive beliefs do not have the belief to stick to their homes. It is common for them to choose to escape in the face of strong enemies. The escaped barbarians spread the terror and power of the tin people to more distant barbarian tribes.

For the next four years, the pioneers of Borui kingdom were not harassed by the barbarians. They built a pioneer fortress, reclaimed farmland and pastures around, planted wheat, raised cattle and sheep, and even dug an open-pit mine.

Without the barbarian shaman garuna, the Borui Kingdom might have succeeded.

The female shaman praised by the Gorgon barbarians summoned dozens of barbarian and orc chiefs to persuade them to unite against the expedition army of the Borui kingdom. No one knows the detailed process of the chieftain meeting, but geruna left three predictions, which roughly means that humans wearing iron sheets come to exterminate barbarians and orcs. No matter where barbarians and orcs hide in that hole, they will dig them out and kill them again; The barbarians and orcs must elect the great chief of gogen, under his leadership, defeat humans, occupy the stone house they built, learn their skills, and finally bury the tin man completely.

The third prophecy is that she will go to see the leader of the tin man and offer the blessing of the father of heaven and the mother of earth. Then she will be burned by the leader of the tin man with a white gold flame. Even the thunder and tears of the father of heaven cannot be extinguished. The barbarian warriors will send her enemies into the arms of the mother of earth in the heavy rain.

The diary of cardinal lazero of the kingdom of Borui before his death described as follows:

"This morning, the pioneer fortress welcomed a special visitor, a barbarian female shaman named geruna or gran... The barbarian's name is awkward and stupid, and she is called a lowly barbarian. However, the female shaman looks good. Even according to the knight's master's eyes, she is also an excellent beauty, especially her black eyes are like the eyes of a female deer , docile and timid, but as soon as she opened her mouth, I smelled the smell of evil gods! She said hello to me in human language. She said that she obeyed the oracle of the father of the heavenly spirit and submitted to mankind on behalf of the Gaogen tribe. The barbarians were willing to offer tribute every year in exchange for more than 2000 barbarian slaves captured by the pioneer fortress... Hehe, the oracle? The true God has no desire, no desire, and no need to ask Believers issue an oracle. The so-called Oracle is either a whisper of evil gods or a sinner who talks nonsense about God! No matter what kind of female Shaman is, she should be purified... Well, I should talk to his highness Christopher and net the Gorgon tribe that worships evil gods. Barbarians and orcs are strong labor. I will use it in front of them The holy fire of the Supreme Lord purifies shaman garuna, the daughter of the evil god. "

The commander, Duke Christopher, recorded what happened later in his memoirs.

"She was premeditated, and Laszlo made a mistake. There were no Gorgon barbarians and no tributes at the scheduled place, and my fierce soldiers didn't have a premonition that the danger was approaching. This is very abnormal! The barbarian Shaman's magic hoodwinked the violent soldiers' danger intuition, and the subsequent encounter confirmed this. Laszlo insisted on holding a purification ceremony in front of the barbarian prisoners, which is not only Let him die, but also brought great trouble to our future generations... The rainstorm obscured our sight, and the leather armor filled with rain slowed down the soldiers' Marching speed, but those bare armed barbarian prisoners were not affected... On the way back to the pioneer fortress, endless barbarians and orcs killed us from all directions. They tore the rain curtain, surrounded us and opened their mouths Later, I knew that Gao Gen was the son of the gods and the king of the barbarians. In the era of the chosen one, Gao Gen represented the Barbarian King's court. But at that moment, I couldn't care too much. We killed all the crazy barbarian prisoners first, and then led the army to break through... I hope the pioneer fortress won't send troops to support, it will be a nightmare. "

"Thirty five thousand elite soldiers and 800 paladins were wiped out, and Laszlo died because he didn't come back. There were barbarians and orcs outside the pioneer fortress, at least 200000. His highness viorito went out to investigate the enemy personally. He said that barbarians came in a steady stream. They occupied our farms, pastures, mines and blacksmiths, trying to produce food and make clothes Be prepared. The grain stored in the pioneer fortress can last for four months. There are not many arrows and crossbows. We must save some. "

"I now think Laszlo is right. Neither we nor the church can allow a second faith in the human kingdom. We and the barbarians cannot coexist. Although at the beginning, I was not prepared to kill the barbarians, but only regarded them as primitive wisdom like centaurs. In fact, they have the extraordinary ability of divination and prophecy, and firmly believe that this is the gift of the spirit of heaven and the spirit of earth. In other words, grena foresaw that we could not accept the sacrifice of the barbarians and that she was destined to be purified by lazro. Her third prophecy became a reality and made the barbarians and orcs believe the first two prophecies... Specific hatred, hostility and primitive beliefs prompted the barbarians to change their inherent way of life. Large and small tribes gathered near the pioneer fortress to defend king gogen Court. The great chief of pioneer fortress adopts a lifelong system. After its death, the chiefs of various tribes compete for the position of the great chief by force. However, the great chief is not Gao gen, and the king of barbarians is vacant... I am very confused about this. "

Victor was also very confused. The kingdom of gogen took the banner of the king of barbarians and regarded itself as orthodox, which could attract barbarian tribes to take refuge. But the great chief could not ascend the throne. He changed the lifelong system to the hereditary system. Other barbarian chiefs would never be tamed, which would lead to the disintegration of the gogen kingdom. But if God Donal really issued an oracle to geruna

Who is he preparing for the suspended barbarian throne?
