Chapter 948: Easter Island
The indigenous Maori people here are more hospitable and provide the fleet with plenty of fruit, vegetables and fish supplies along the way. Especially when the fleet made a detour through New Zealand, the Maori people here worshipped Zhang Fan, who had shown miracles, and the book demons, who knew witchcraft.
On this beautiful and abundant island, the fleet was well received. Especially those Chinese pirates, it is simply to heaven. Because of these Maori people, the men are very brave and strong, and the women are very beautiful and open. These pirates, who hadn't touched a woman for a long time, naturally enjoyed the blessings.
To Zhang Fan's surprise, the Maori people have a very strange culture, and their men will dance a very fierce haka war dance on the eve of going out hunting or fighting. These Maori people are already tall and mighty, and with the abundance of products and nutrients here, they are all as fit as the gods of war.
When they provoke the Haka War Dance, it can have a halo effect on themselves and their allies to boost morale and combat effectiveness! Zhang Fan also tried to let the pirates engage in a gladiatorial battle with these Maori warriors, and found that the opponent's war dance really had the ability to intimidate and suppress the opponent! When the other party roars rhythmically, sticks out their tongues, widens their eyes, shows their muscles, slaps their bodies, and wields their weapons, this aura effect can make prey and enemies collapse with the bonus of the scene!
Moreover, these Maori warriors know how to cooperate with each other very well when fighting, have a certain sense of tactics, and their personal martial arts skills are also very good. As long as there are more than two people, they can play the role of a team halo and improve each other's morale and combat effectiveness! More than ten people, that's enough to withstand a formed army!
Therefore, Zhang Fan decided to recruit these Maori warriors to join the pirate group! After giving many gifts to the local chiefs and priests, permission was obtained to recruit the crew. Inspired by the sorcerer and the sorcerer Zhang Fan, these Maori were happy to join the fleet, as they were a people who loved to move on the sea.
In the vast South Pacific, and even as far as the Hawaiian Islands in the North Pacific, as far as Easter Island, there are Maori settlements! Therefore, although these Maori are civilized, they have mastered very high seamanship! Even if you fly a small sampan, you can sail long in the vast Pacific Ocean!
According to the information of the book demon, these Polynesian Maori people are actually related to the Chinese. Perhaps before civilization, they migrated from China.
Zhang Fan not only recruited many Maori warrior men, but also selected many beautiful Maori women, so as to keep the fleet alive. and in the future when they arrive in the Caribbean, so that these Maori who are loyal to themselves can thrive. In twenty years, it will be possible to join the blood of the new Maori people. The advantage of recruiting these natives is that they are both cost-effective and very loyal.
Here, the book demon gains a little more. He exchanged a lot of primitive witchcraft with local shamans. The book demon, who had become a scene deity in Haiti, was naturally revered by these Maori shamans and priests, and the book demon perfected his witchcraft encyclopedia. You must know that primitive witchcraft is rarely passed down in writing, which is why the book demon Weishenme is obsessed with witchcraft.
Because these witchcraft are completely knowledge outside of books, knowledge that has not been recorded by human civilization. Much of this knowledge has been lost, and it is only in the scene of the precept bearer Shijie that it will be restored. As the essence of the inheritance of human civilization, the book demon can collect all the recorded knowledge and experience. But there is nothing that can be done about these ancient knowledge that has been passed down by language and experience, and has no records. This is also one of the reasons why the book demon has hollowed out his mind and wants to enter the precept holder shijie.
After leaving New Zealand, Zhang Fan commanded the fleet to the northeast to find Easter Island, because he felt that the mysterious island might have some adventures. The bookrain also wanted to visit Easter Island, where legend has it that it is the only Polynesian island with a written heritage, a wooden script called 'Lango-Lango'.
However, under Zhang Fan's guidance, the fleet lost its way, and after more than half a month of wandering around the Pacific Ocean, it passed by the beautiful Fiji Island on the way north, and then found its direction. Then head east to Tahiti, a Maori island, a 'figure 8' volcanic island made up of two volcanic plateaus, rivers and coral reefs and lagoons along the coast. In reality, Shijie is also a very famous tourist island.
The four seasons are warm and spring-like, and the products are abundant. The Maori people, who have nothing to do, often look out to sea and meditate, waiting for the sun to set and dawn. The sun shines along with the winds blowing in the Pacific Ocean, and the color of the water changes from deep to clear. They call themselves the 'people of God' and think that this island is the closest thing to heaven.
The island is also rich in black pearls, which Zhang Fan bought in exchange for porcelain and recruited local 'people of the gods'. These so-called 'people of the gods', although they have no real divine power, but with the addition of scenes, they are enhanced versions of Maori warriors, and their performance is even better. Both learning ability and combat effectiveness are stronger.
In this Tahiti island, the book demon has been in contact with a level higher than witchcraft in his interactions with local priests and shamans. This is one of the reasons why the Maori people of Tahiti call themselves the 'people of God'. It's just that this island is too small, and the divine arts inherited have been vague and almost lost. The book demon was not discouraged, thinking that this was a very good beginning.
When the fleet set sail again, Zhang Fan gave the role of navigator to the book demon and Xuanyuan Xing, who had recovered into human bodies. One of them is a scout, and the other is a humanoid computer database, and they are both masters who can't get lost. The route was precise, and in less than ten days, the fleet made its way east to Easter Island.
Easter Island is a rocky triangular island in the Pacific Ocean, with rocky reefs and cliffs on its coast. The fleet circled the island for most of the time, and finally found anchorage in a small bay. Easter Island is called Rapa Nui in Polynesian languages, which means 'shijie's navel eye'.
The so-called Easter Island was not until 150 years before the Dutch West India Company explorer Jacob Brown. A fleet led by Rogwen discovered this small island in the South Pacific Ocean. Rogwen wrote down the location of the island in ink on the nautical chart, and because he found that the island happened to be Christian Easter, he wrote down 'Easter Island' next to it, and the name 'Easter Island' became known to the world. And now it should be called Rapa Nui Island.
