17 Totem God in the Desert
The Sea Clan's invasion of the Pharos Kingdom attracted the attention of not only all the Pharosians, but also neighboring nations such as Gunther and Gverifred.
And although the kingdom of Pharos itself fell into political chaos due to the sinking of the capital, the result of the incident was that the two demon kings were sealed.
Therefore, although there is a certain degree of disagreement within the church because of this matter, in general, without the Demon King in the dark threat, the overall situation is still very stable.
It can even be said that the invasion of the Sea Clan is not a disaster, it can be an opportunity to divert the contradictions within the church.
As a result, the Covenant Church is ready to boost its morale by defeating the Sea Clan in the Kingdom of Phalos.
In this case, the church does not pay much attention to the small things.
Somewhere near the end of the glorious world, the Great Desert is out of the Church's attention.
The Great Desert known as Maakoya was the birthplace and birthplace of human civilization in ancient times.
While the glorious world under the rule of the Covenant Church is stable and harmonious, many of the Forsaken are struggling to survive in this desert.
They did not belong to the covenant religious belief system, and they believed in many ancient totemic gods.
Thus, when the covenant religion became the ruler of the continent, the desert tribes, which had many glorious pasts and glories, became what some scholars called the forgotten.
Most of the world's population is unaware of their existence, and they are unable to integrate into a human society that exists on the basis of covenant religion.
Or rather, they could not leave the desert at all, being secretly excluded by the Church.
Food shortages, scarce water sources, lack of medical care, and lack of supplies......
This living environment has lasted for hundreds of years, and the challenges are not limited to survival, but also the wars waged by various tribes to survive.
As a result, the desert area, which was originally quite large, has fewer and fewer people.
If nothing changes, then in many years' time, the Forsaken will be completely forgotten by the world.
And Ma'akoya, the great desert that originally gave birth to human civilization, will also lose all its vitality after countless tribulations.
Until one day, fate came.
One of the Forsaken tribes known as Golden Lava has been summoned by their god after experiencing many anomalous phenomena.
Therefore, while most of the church's attention was focused on the Sea Tribe, the golden lava tribes scattered in the seven oasis gathering places quietly started a great migration, overcoming the desert obstacles and arriving near the sacred mountain where the gods lived.
This oasis in the depths of the desert is filled with lizard-skin tents, and the deserted atmosphere of the tribe that was originally stationed here has become very lively, and people come and go, as if they have suddenly returned to their heyday.
While some of the young people in the tribe were happy about this, it was hard not to worry about the abundance of the tribe's reserves.
In other words, such a large-scale gathering is completely challenging their already difficult survival environment.
However, the situation has not gotten worse, but has gotten better -
As the members of the tribe gathered one after another, the oasis under their feet, which should have been surrounded by yellow sand, was slowly expanding!
This expansion is extremely unusual and can even be said to be visible to the naked eye!
At the same time, the oasis was expanded, and the rain in the sky above was becoming more and more dense.
From sporadic sprinkling, to dripping, to ruffling, to booming......
People don't know why this is happening, but this obvious improvement in the living environment makes everyone very excited, as if after a long dark night, they finally see the sun rise!
However, some beings do not consider this a good thing.
……
"The old dragon is feeding his people at the cost of their lives."
The anomaly of the Golden Lava Tribe, while not attracting the attention of the Covenant Church, has attracted the attention of some other Forsaken tribes in the desert.
In other words, it has attracted the attention of some totemic gods behind the tribes.
And when the oasis where the golden lava tribe is located is rapidly expanding, the minds and wills of these totem gods are also converging on the top of a barren sand dune somewhere to start a discussion.
They ended up with a very bad result.
"The cage has drained his life."
The totem gods appeared on the sand dunes like a constellation formed by the convergence of starlight in the starry sky, and after exchanging information with each other, one of the serpentine constellations let out a burst of spiritual words.
"He's running out of time."
"Claude is our ally, and we should visit him."
After the serpentine form, a totem god in the form of a vulture spoke.
"It's going to be misunderstood by Claude." These words come from a certain cat-shaped totem god.
"He should understand that with his fall, his people must become our vassals." The totem god in the form of a scorpion spoke calmly.
"Otherwise, it will be difficult for them to survive in this cursed desert."
This is not a threat, but a fact.
There was a silence over the dunes.
It wasn't until a short time later that the cat-shaped totem god let out a sigh.
"When did it start? It's hard for us to survive even the most basics? ”
"When the Mother Goddess is dragged into hell by them, the situation is already doomed."
"Damn Ingersoll ......"
After one last curse, the brief gathering ended quietly.
Although they didn't say it explicitly, these totem gods in a dismal situation had decided to mourn before the old dragon was completely killed, and then distributed the "inheritance" left by the other party.
……
The dragon didn't know anything about it.
As the desert totem gods gathered alone with it, the young dragon with its dark red scales hovered leisurely above its tribe, gazing at the thriving population below.
Its body is not large, about the size of a horse, and at the same time it has a slender tail and a smooth belly.
The overall image is not a little majestic, not to mention, and even a little cute.
If this appearance is seen by the people below, I am afraid that it will cause a panic, because it does not match the majestic dragon god in their hearts at all.
However, the existence of the baby dragon can only be seen by a small number of sacrifices, and these dragon sacrifices are completely subordinate to the baby dragon, and they are both prosperous and lossy.
Under this relationship, they can vaguely understand the vigorous life breath of the young dragon at this time, and this represents that it is obviously not a bad thing
"It's good to be young."
As it "wandered" under the sky, out of the corner of its eye, it caught a glimpse of a group of people from the tribe below, singing joyfully in the direction of the mountain where it lived.
It's a hymn it hasn't heard in years.
The true body is locked in a stone mountain full of evil curses, so it is becoming more and more difficult for the rapidly aging body to control the power and absorb the faith, which naturally causes the living environment of the tribe under his command to gradually fall into weakness.
And now, as it breaks free from its restraints in the ingenious way of reincarnation, and as its entire body is rejuvenated, that predicament no longer exists.
This means that he will lead his people to the top again!
"You seem happy?"
Zhengzhi was full of pride, and a gentle voice quietly sounded in his ears, making the rhythm of the young dragon's flight, which had been leisurely flapping its wings, instantly become messy.
