Chapter 37: The Spirit of the Ancestors (Part II)

Strange flame jumps.

A shaman wearing a bone mask twisted up the black powder and sprinkled it into the flames, and the rising flames exploded instantly, and countless scenes could be faintly seen. A special force enveloped the place, and there seemed to be some kind of being awakened in the earth, and this power was awakened with the ancient prayer, and then gradually merged into the body of the old shaman, and soon he closed his eyes tremblingly, as if he was connecting with some kind of being.

"Danger! …… Don't provoke the enemy! …… Outsiders! …… It's dangerous! ……”

The vague information sounded in his mind, and the old-faced shaman priest stopped trembling all over, and then slowly opened his eyes and said, "The ancestral spirit has given me an oracle!" ……”

"Don't provoke the outsiders, be careful of them!"

In front of the shaman was a totem pole, different from the natives that Sauron had destroyed, the spirit here did not have such a wild and evil aura, and even he had a certain wisdom. When He is awakened, the aura that emanates is not good, but it is not so evil, it is more like a neutral force.

There was silence in front of me.

In front of the old shaman was a group of indigenous leaders, all of whom were the most powerful warriors in the tribe, but at this moment there was a look of horror and fear on their faces.

The tribes that had been at war for so long suddenly disappeared.

It is impossible to hide such a thing from the natives who live here, but when they know that their opponents have really been destroyed, they feel not ecstasy, but deep fear.

It was just overnight!

The rival tribes they had been fighting for centuries were wiped out, and even the evil gods they served were not spared.

Terrible. Dangerous. Fear.

When he heard the news, the eldest shaman decided to awaken the spirits of the ancestors and asked him to guide the tribe in the hope of learning from the spirits of the ancestors what was going on with these outsiders. Such a thing is so terrible that these outsiders are able to destroy their enemies overnight. I'm afraid it will be able to wipe them out overnight. Even the eldest shaman didn't know what to do when faced with such a major matter of the tribe's survival, so they could only ask the ancestral spirits for help.

But.

There was very little information about the Ancestral Soul to tell them, and he even had a message that he hid from his own people.

That is.

The Ancestral Soul told him that the enemy was very powerful and dangerous, and that even the Ancestral Soul would not be able to defeat the terrible outsider in the event of a conflict, and that the best way was to move the entire tribe to another island.

That would prevent the catastrophe of annihilation!

The souls of the ancestors are full of wisdom.

The old shaman was convinced of this! Because the ancestral spirits they serve are definitely not the evil gods of the rival tribes!

There is a huge gap between the two in nature.

The inheritance of ancestral spirit sacrifices made them more sensible, and although this indigenous tribe was not as powerful as Sauron faced, it was much higher in terms of civilization. They have better defenses. There are specialized blacksmiths forging weapons and equipment, and they have also tried to domesticate the velociraptor of Treasure Island. So even if the ancestral spirits couldn't give them the power to make the warriors go berserk, they still fought the enemy for hundreds of years, and little by little the tribe grew stronger.

Now.

A difficult choice was in front of them.

That's the appearance of terrible outsiders, and what should they do in the future!

Leaving your home is like giving up your home and starting again in a dangerous and unknown environment, which is quite costly. That's why the older shamans didn't tell the others, because if they did, I was afraid that the tribe would soon be in a panic. Now. The only thing they can do is wait, hoping that these outsiders won't attack them.

The older shaman looked into the distance.

He heard the frolic of the children in the tribe and the scolding of the women, who had not yet known that an unprecedented catastrophe was coming.

The survival of the entire tribe is threatened by Yan zhòng!

………………

The village was busy.

Relying on his memory, Sauron quickly found the approximate location of the gold mine. But even if you take it down, you can't mine it right away.

Sauron had to muster men and tools, and he had to do it secretly, as many of his men didn't know what was on the island until now. I just thought they were here to plunder the natives. This had to be left to his cronies, and Sauron had the One-Eyed set out for the South Coast to mobilize men, preferably some of the people who were skilled in mining. It doesn't matter what means Sauron uses. All he had to do was see the hands and tools brought over during the mission time.

The indigenous people are quite barren.

Aside from the gold and silver mines here, there's basically nothing to get your hands on.

Even the most powerful shamans could not find a few pieces of extraordinary equipment, their civilization was too low, and only a part of the knowledge of voodoo was inherited.

It's been almost a week.

It would take a lot of effort for Sauron to make a round trip, and he couldn't stay on Treasure Island for long, so a lot of things had to be taken care of at once.

It's a pity that the half-elf first mate wants to sit on the island of Angry Sands.

Otherwise, with him, Sauron could have been the shopkeeper, because the half-elf first mate was still very capable of doing things.

The first captives have been sent away.

Sauron had the village renovated by native slaves before ordering the ship's supplies to be brought down.

Half of them went back.

Half of them stayed here.

Sauron spent three full days leaving a teleportation marker here, so that in the event of an emergency, he could directly use teleportation to help.

When the third batch of slaves was also taken away.

Sauron had finally finished dealing with the qiē on this side and was ready to return to the port of Mordor first.

Nearly 1,000 men were left on Treasure Island, and about 2,000 or so natives were taken prisoner. When the one-eyed dragon returns, other pirates will be brought in to guard it, and these elites can't be left in a place where birds don't.

Time pinched his fingers into June.

With only about half a year left before the Sage Catastrophe truly broke out, Sauron didn't know what the current situation was in Fallen Leaf City. The biggest inconvenience overseas is the information jam, and the port of Molda can still rely on the prosperous trade to gather a lot of information, but in Treasure Island it is not possible at all. Now that the situation on the continent is changing, Sauron can't afford to linger here for long.

So.

The day after taking care of his many affairs, Sauron decided to return to the port of Mordor himself.

Next.

It is the most important thing for him to determine his future fate!
