Chapter 957: Observing the Ceremony

After changing into the robe representing the identity of the Holy Capital Emissary, Tokny led Elcid and other five Saints to finally enter the city of the Earth Mother Clan, of course, before leaving, Elcid also specially apologized to the Lizardman tribe that was affected, and the Lizardman Priestess Eva said that it was an honor to be able to walk with the Holy Capital's Emissary.

"Let's go~ Guys are about to start the ceremony, I'll take you to take a good seat. ”

Tokny ran towards the main venue like a big kid who couldn't wait to show his toys in front of his friends, and Caludeia, who was also cheerful, also browsed the orc city with great interest, although there was no chessboard-like uniform planning of human cities, orc buildings tended to be more of a grand and wild style, and the skeletons that humans regarded as symbols of uncleanness and death were also used in the building, of course, most of these skeletons were trophies after the orcs hunted.

And in the orc bazaar, the goods are naturally not as delicate as the human market, in the food orcs are not as meatless as imagined, although orcs do like to eat meat, but in general, they are omnivorous creatures like humans, elves, and dwarves, and there are stalls selling various vegetables and fruits in the market, but the orcs obviously lack some entertainment things in the goods, simply put, the orcs' goods are very monotonous, mostly such as food, spices, clothing, There are not many luxuries and pleasures for daily necessities and other things that are closely related to life, and you can't even find a single vendor selling snacks along the way.

Caludia looked around like a curious child, and Tokny was more like a hospitable host explaining some of the orc customs to everyone, and only Elcid quietly took out the hedron magic guide and searched for it, and the corner of the hedron had already shone with the greatest light, pointing to the largest building in the entire city.

The Children of the Stars are there!

"Tokni~ I have a question for you. ”

"Ahh

Elcid organized himself a little and asked cryptically, "Is there any other human besides us who have come to participate in the sacrifice of the Thanksgiving Sacrifice?"

"In the past, the Holy Metropolis sent people to observe, but during this time, the situation on the mainland was a bit chaotic, and it was both demons and undead, so no personnel were sent over this year. Tokney shrugged.

"So have any humans come to the Mother Earth tribe lately?"

"Humans, probably not, if there were, they should be merchants from the Zegus Kingdom to trade, but they don't usually stay here for long┉┉Are you here to find people?"

Tokny blinked and looked at Elcid with some confusion: "Actually, I don't know, I haven't been home for almost a year recently. ”

"Don't worry, I'm just asking. ”

Elcid was chatting with Tokney on the surface, but he quickly thought about it in his heart, the image of Tifa, the son of the stars, had been imprinted in his memory by Arin with a spiritual spell before he set off, although the son of the stars was taken in by the orcs, but the children of the stars, who were very similar in appearance to humans, should be a very conspicuous existence among the orcs, and since they stayed in the city of the orcs, it should also reveal some information.

Before Elcid had time to think about it for too long, as a burst of grand drums sounded, Tokney slapped his head and yelled no, and then dragged everyone to the main venue of the statue ceremony, bypassing the bustling crowd along the way, Tokny directly used his identity as the nephew of the patriarch to enter the main ceremony hall through the back door, and then took five 'messengers of the Holy Capital' to occupy a good position.

"I'm sorry, I need to go to my aunt ┉┉ Hmm~ It's to say hello to the patriarch, you guys watch here first, I'll come to you later!" After everyone was settled, Tokny remembered something and had to leave temporarily.

Looking at this holy warrior who came and went like the wind, and did not have the calm character of the earth at all, everyone also smiled helplessly. At this time, with the ancient but magnificent music has sounded, the instruments used by the orcs are mostly some relatively heavy primitive instruments, among which drums of various sizes occupy a large weight, although there is no such as violin, piano, lyre These instruments make a delicate and crisp sound, but the thick bass can more support the vicissitudes of life on behalf of the earth.

The celestial silver saint Olufei closed his eyes slightly, listening intently to the music that seemed to call for the arrival of ancient times, and in the midst of the drums, the priestesses also walked to the stage with spices and offerings, and placed them in the four corners, symbolizing the four corners of the earth.

Caludia poked Elcid with her finger: "What shall we do now, continue to watch the ceremony here?"

"If we're going to be more visible now, at least that's for sure. Elcid quietly held up the hedron and placed it in front of Kaludia's eyes: "The Child of the Star is here, in the city of this orc tribe, as long as we can be sure that the Child of the Star is here and will not leave, then there will be time for us to find her slowly." ”

"That said, it's time for us to continue watching the ceremony. ”

Elcid nodded and put the magic guide back in his pocket: "Yes, this kind of ritual usually takes place for several days, so we don't need to rush it now. ”

And when the orcs wearing ceremonial robes on the huge ceremonial stage walked in with the idol symbolizing the god of the earth, an orc maid also gave some melons, fruits and drinks to the saints who were sitting in the VIP seats in the audience.

The orc dancers on the ceremony stage also came to the stage, the brown sacrificial robe represents the soil of the earth and the skin of the god of the earth, the red sacrificial robe represents the lava and the blood of the god of the earth, and the emerald green sacrificial robe represents the hair of the god of the earth on behalf of the forest.

Even the saints who don't know much about the sacrificial process can read the meaning of these dances, which is to praise and thank the earth for bringing new life to the world and as the home of the final destination of life, the orcs believe in a doctrine close to the half-druid, although the orcs believe in the god of the earth and are grateful for everything the earth has brought them, but compared to the emphasis on the balance of all things in nature in the druid teachings, the orcs pay more attention to the competitive instinct of nature, and in the eyes of the orcs, the survival of the fittest is higher than the balance of all things.

To put it simply, the definition of the rules of nature by the elven druids is that when the equilibrium is broken, I would rather go hungry than hunt, otherwise the complete collapse of the balance of nature will bring more than just a hungry stomach to the future, and the orc's definition of the rules of nature is that as long as I am full, then there is no need to do unnecessary hunting and cause waste, but before I am full, I must hunt more prey to fill my stomach.

And the human definition of the rules of nature is that I am full but I still want to continue hunting, not why~ just because it is fun┉┉

While the Saint Seiya was watching the ceremonial ceremony on the stage, Tokney, who had just run back to greet the patriarch of the Earth Mother Clan, was scratching his head and returning to the viewing table.

Is it because you have been away for too long and are you not used to the rules of the tribe?

Tokny recalled with some wonder that he had only returned to the Youxuan Grassland with the teleportation circle of the Zegus Kingdom last night, and his aunt was so busy that she couldn't even find time to see her after the Thanksgiving Festival was held, and when she saw her aunt in a hurry just now, she only greeted her politely and didn't dare to disturb her more.

At the Thanksgiving Festival, my aunt, who was the patriarch, was definitely going to attend the speech, and she had to perform some rituals with her own hands, and she was really embarrassed to disturb her for too long, and she didn't seem to have much to say to her aunt when she thought about it. But my aunt was also busy taking care of a little orc girl, and judging from the girl's dress, it seemed that she should be the priest who personally recited the prayer for the god of the earth and planted the sacred tree at today's thanksgiving sacrifice, which was originally the largest and most important ceremony at the thanksgiving sacrifice should have been carried out by the highest priest in each tribe or even the patriarch himself, originally Tokny thought that even if it was not the patriarch himself, the priestess Tiama should be in charge, but he didn't expect it to be handed over to a child who looked underage.

Although she is still a child, although there is no shortage of petite body types among orc women, this girl is a little too petite for an orc!

Tokny couldn't help but think back to the little girl he saw before, wearing a priest's robe, with prayer makeup painted on her face, giving people the cuteness of a child pretending to be an adult, although she didn't know whose child she was, but looking at the patriarch's appearance, she should love her very much, in fact, this is not bad, Tokney recalled that since she suffered the disaster caused by the transcendent ten years ago, her aunt rarely showed her concern for others, because the only thing she cared about was the tribe.

"But I really didn't expect that even Marcias from the Blood Hunt tribe came, hey~ After so many years, I'm still not used to his dress, but the guy who is so violent has to pretend to be harmless, I really don't know what he's thinking!"

Tocni muttered, and when he heard the sound of music coming from outside, he quickly ran and quickly returned to the viewing table before the priest's prayer ceremony began.

"Ha~ I've kept you waiting!"

After returning to his seat, he squeezed away Kaludia and said with a smile, and after seeing the melons and fruits placed on the table, he unceremoniously picked them up and ate them: "How is it, are you still used to the sacrifices of our orcs?"

"It's pretty good, it gives people a unique style charm, and honestly it's really earning to be able to sit in this good position and watch. ”

Tokney happily patted Caludia on the back: "It's about to be the most important part of the ceremony, I can reveal a secret to you, the priest who is responsible for delivering prayers to the god of the earth during the ceremony is a very cute girl~"

"What, you like her?" Caludia patted him half-jokingly as Tokney's atmosphere was infected.

"It's very cute, but it's too young to my liking. ”

Just as the conversation between the two of them was gradually spreading to the 'dirty' side, when Elcid was already considering whether to give Caludia a shudder to make him pay attention to his words and actions, a crisp and pleasant child's voice echoed in the sky, and with the holy sound of praying to the gods, the maiden in the priest's robe was already holding a green branch with the assistance of several priestesses, and was led to the ceremonial platform by the patriarch of the Earth Mother tribe, Luminas.
