Chapter 157: The Lake God's Mission
Fat Orange slowly walked out of the lake temple in humiliation, his tail drooped, his ears lying forward, he walked a few steps and looked back at the temple from time to time, hoping that the silver-haired woman would appear at the door of the temple, and whispered with a smile: "Good Mimi, I was joking with you just now." β
However, nothing happened, the coquettish and cute failed, and the force could not threaten her, and he begged her, so he could only do what she asked and did things obediently.
Sneaking back to the inn in the night, Fat Orange ran to Jacques's heart and called for him, but the lazy servant slept soundly.
"Smack!"
A dozen pounds of meat smashed directly on Jacques's stomach, immediately waking up the tired Jacques and Lily.
"Meow, there's something wrong, we can't go!" Fat Orange shouted directly.
"What's wrong with Fat Orange?" Lily rubbed her sleepy eyes.
Jacques replied, "It says we can't go tomorrow." β
"Why? because of what happened at today's ball?" Lily immediately thought about whether she was involved in the struggle of the upper class of Zidilan City, and made up a lot of plots.
After listening to Fat Orange's explanation, Jacques said, "No, it was Fat Orange who was caught by the Lake God." Now the lake god wants us to do something for it before he can let us go. β
Fat Orange doesn't tell Jacques everything honestly, including the benefits it can get if it gets done.
- Meow, the emperor's servants don't need to know too much, just have the emperor to guide the way.
It's just that for Jacques and Lily, it's destined to be a sleepless night.
......
The next morning, the hotel's restaurant.
In addition to the entourage and the security guards sent by Marianne, Jacques six and one cat and eight people from Martin's side all arrived, filling the long table in the dining room.
Fabian lay listlessly on the long table, his hands hanging limply, his chin resting on the table, his eyes looking between Jacques and Martin, hoping that the two most thoughtful men would come up with a plan.
Now everyone knows that the lake god has a task, or he can't do it.
The content of the lake god's mission is peculiar, and everyone is at a loss.
"How can you make the strongest Sioux champion to win the Warrior Challenge! I don't even know who is the strongest!" Alyssa complained.
"If we really let that Red Lotus win the warrior yesterday, we will definitely be killed by the Lake God!" Jacques was also helpless.
Emma said: "In fact, as long as the process of the warrior challenge is fair, the warrior selected is the strongest. β
Martin figured out the content of the task, and let the strongest young man of the Sioux race win the warrior, but he couldn't figure out the reason: "You help me sort out my thoughts again, why doesn't the lake god show up herself, as long as she gives the will, the Sioux will definitely do it." I also visited the Lake God Temple yesterday, and I saw those little armors, which shows that she is very strong! And I came into contact with some Sioux people, and they are still very in awe of the Lake God. β
Jacques had to explain it again, although he had also asked Fat Orange this question last night: "It is said that more than ninety years ago, all the beastmasters of the New World held a meeting and signed an agreement together. From then on, all the beast kings in the New World were restrained, and they could not interfere with the lives of humans at will, and they could not appear in front of humans at will.
It is said that it was because of this treaty that when the Golden Kingdom was destroyed, all the ten beast kings could only watch silently. It was also because of this treaty that the 'Demon Wolf' was summoned to TavarΓ© that he was extremely angry and almost destroyed the entire city, revealing his true identity in front of tens of thousands of spectators in the Colosseum, violating the agreement, and supposedly losing the qualification to compete for something, so he became angry.
It was also because of this treaty that Isis and we walked all the way without revealing her true identity. β
Chandler was surprised and said, "So it's not the cute cat in real shape?"
- Probably cute enough to swallow you in one bite, thought Chubby Orange, who was crouching on the side.
Jacques continued, "The lake god Trenas is said to have not appeared for a hundred years, also because of the treaty between the beastmasters. When I chatted with the chief alternate yesterday, he didn't have the slightest reverence for the lake god, probably because the lake god didn't show up all year round. β
Lily also said, "Letting the strongest youth become warriors sounds like just maintaining the fairness of the warrior challenge, but it's almost a war with the existing Sioux upper class.
The winner of the warrior challenge can enter the Lake Temple to become the guardian, and the Sioux Grand Chief is elected by the Guardians, why the 'Chief Candidate' dares to claim to be the next Sioux Grand Chief, it is precisely because he can control most of the Guardians to choose himself.
The tradition of the Sioux has been alienated, and the warriors who originally selected the strongest force challenge, because the Sioux no longer distribute resources equally, there is a gap between the rich and the poor, and gradually the difference between the rich and the poor affects the warrior challenge, and now the most rich and powerful are selected. β
Natasha added, "But the Sioux upper echelons who can influence the Warriors' challenge have all benefited from it, and they are the biggest obstacle to our mission." β
"Can you let the Lake God change the mission? We really can't do it! How many grandmasters do you say there are in the Sioux Clan? At least a dozen? We're only two Shapers at the peak, and we're not enough for people to blow a breath!" said the listless Fabian.
"Let's find a way to run quietly!" Fabian straightened up and made what he thought was a very good suggestion.
Jacques shook his head: "If you can't run away, let's run for six days first, and then Terenas will set off slowly, and catch up with us on the seventh day." β
Lily also sighed, "There is still a month, we have to figure out a way as soon as possible!, but the good news is that if our plan is approved by the Lake God, she can help us without violating the covenant of the Beastmaster."
However, if the course of action causes her to break the agreement, then she should show up all over the fair play designation, and we will suffer the wrath of the enraged Beastmaster. She has been gone for ninety years because of this agreement, and if ninety years of hard work have failed......"
"It's terrible......" Martin's brother Sanders was frightened by Lily's words, and as a survivor of the TavarΓ© incident that year, he subconsciously trembled slightly at the thought of the Beastmaster's anger.
Jacques finally concluded: "Walk around the city for the past two days, collect more information, and in three days you will be able to meet the lake god Terenas, and we will give her a preliminary plan at that time, everyone will think about it first." Let's disperse, pay attention to secrecy!"
Back at the inn, Jacques whispered to Lily: "I was thinking of a plan last night, if we take advantage of the fishing festival, with the cooperation of the lake god, to wipe out the upper echelons of Zidilan City, and challenge the warriors without the influence of external forces, will it be fairer, can we choose the strongest young man?"
Lily said: "I don't think it's possible, to be able to do this, the lake god has already done it himself." And even if the upper echelons are dead, according to the current situation, there will still be people who will jump out to cheat.
Unless there's a way to make it impossible to see that it's the god of the lake, and then we need to control the entire city, so that the Warrior Challenge can be held fairly according to our will.
And there is another point, Fat Orange didn't make it clear, and the day after tomorrow, she will ask the lake god in detail, does she only need this warrior challenge to select the strongest youth, or does she require future warrior challenges to choose the real strong?
If you want to do it for a long time, you can only take full control of the city and become the secular administrator of the Sioux people. β
