Volume 5 The Return of the King 111 Totem of Terror
That night he stayed in the tavern until the second half of the night before leaving the tavern, and the drunken fellows did not chase away the people, but let them fall asleep on their stomachs or lying down.
And I had barely walked out of the tavern when I was stopped by a shout behind me, a tall figure. When he walked up to me, I recognized it as the minotaur.
He was more than a head taller than me, and I looked up at his face, "Is there something wrong?" ”
"Thank you so much just now." He said.
"Nothing." I say.
"I want to make friends with you." He said.
"Hah! What is your name? I asked.
"That goblin didn't tell you?"
"I don't like to ask people." I say.
"Hah!" His voice was rough, "Good! "He seemed pleased with my answer." Can we be friends? He said.
"It's up to you." I say.
"Then I want us to be friends." He said, "My name is Anak Terror Totem, and I am a member of the Terror Totem Clan. ”
I nodded, "I'm from the East." ”
"You're here for the first time, aren't you?" He said.
"Yes."
"If you need anything, such as a bodyguard or a guide, I'm up to it." He said.
"Ahh That's great. I said, "I just happen to have something to know." ”
"Do you still have wine?" He said with a smile.
When I returned to the tavern, the bartender looked at me in surprise, and I smiled and asked for a small keg and two glasses and walked out of the tavern.
The minotaur was overjoyed to see me carrying a bucket, and I said to sit down at the docks, where the wind was more transparent.
Sitting on the pier, the waves are surging in waves, and the sound of the waves is different in this bright moonlight, but I am surrounded by a cow, and it should be more romantic if I am a little girl.
He couldn't wait to open the barrel and pour himself a glass.
"You drink a lot." I said, "No one can drink like that." ”
"People who drink a lot of alcohol also have a high level of force." He tilted his head and drank the wine from his glass, "That's what I am. ”
"I've seen some minotaurs in Booty Bay." I said, "Not much, but there is." ”
"Really?" He poured another glass.
"That's a girl." I looked at him and said, "You minotaur girls." ”
"Hmm...... Really? What is it called? ”
"Basanna." I said, "According to her, she's from Thunder Bluff. ”
"Basanna is her first name, what is her last name?" Anak said.
"Rune Totem." I say. "At first, I wondered how it was such a surname."
"That's our clan's last name." He said. "I'm from the Terror Totem Clan, so I'm called Anak Terror Totem."
"Is her tribe big?" I asked.
"Well, it's a big clan." He said: "The Minotaurs are a relatively core tribe. ”
"Really?"
"The tribes that can be called any totem are the core tribes." He said, "The people of the Rune Totem tribe are considered ...... among the Minotaurs Psychic people. ”
"Psychic?"
"Druid."
"Is it a shaman?" I say.
"Do you know shamans?"
"I have the impression that shamans are supposed to be your souls...... Leader, or shaman is a druid? ”
He shook his head, "A shaman is a shaman, a druid is a druid, these are two completely different concepts. Our primitive religion is shamanism, but shamanism is also a sect of orcs, orc beliefs and spells. He said. It's not very different from the elemental gods we believe in. ”
"So what's the druid? What is Druid? ”
"Druid...... It is a new sect that has risen rapidly in recent years, but the speed of their rise is a bit excessive. He said.
"These guys...... Isn't it good? ”
"What do you mean by being bad?" He asked me.
"Is this religion having a big impact on your original religious beliefs?"
"Huge!" He said. "It's huge!"
"How big?" I asked.
"Our chief originally believed in shamanism, but somehow he was bewitched by that guy named Hamuel, and he actually believed in some druid with those night elves."
"Your chief?"
"Yes. Kane Bloodhoof. ”
"He also converted to Druidism?"
"He? No! He doesn't dare, if he believes in the Druids, I can guarantee that his reign will not last! It's just that this guy allowed that Druidism to spread rapidly among the minotaurs, which really caused a lot of people to be dissatisfied. He said.
"Understandable." I say.
"Your tribe is shamanic, right?"
"Yes, the Totem of Terror will always be a supporter of shamanism." He said.
"How many people are in your tribe?"
"It's fine, but our tribe is the most warlike of the entire Minotaurs." He proudly said: "We are the responsibility of combat effectiveness!" ”
"That's pretty good!" I say. "The leader of your clan isn't the one named Kane?"
"Hah! Of course not, our leader's name is Magatha, and he is a high witch and high priest. He said.
"Female?"
"How?" He looked at me.
"It's really rare for a woman to be the leader." I say.
"Her strength is no worse than that of the one named Hamuel, and she is even better." He said.
"Hamuel?"
"Hamuel Rune Totem is the leader of the Druids I just mentioned." He snorted, "Now that I have the support of the chief, I am now a red man on Thunder Bluff, and the guy you said is called Bashana is a member of their sect." ”
"Isn't your relationship very good, right?" I asked.
"Hmph, it's not good, but it's not that bad." He said. "You...... I still like to ask about things. ”
"Hahaha!" I laughed, "I'm here to make more friends, or find more allies." ”
"Do you want bodyguards?" He asked.
"Both." I say.
His eyes glistened in the moonlight, and he seemed to think, "I'll just say we can be friends." ”
"Do you know anyone in your tribe?" I asked.
"What do you mean?"
"I mean, do you know anyone...... You can help me with a referral, and we can be friends on a deeper level. I said.
He blinked, "You want to see Magatha?" ”
"Can you introduce me to me?" I said with a smile. "My ...... Friend! ”
The minotaur was happy that night, and so was I. When I got back to the ship, the group didn't sleep alone, there were several people standing on the deck, and Birgit was there, and I was glad to see the look on her face when I returned.
"I thought you ran away." Sam spoke very politely.
I looked at Birgit, "I can't bear you." ”
Sam snorted, "What did you do?" ”
"Have fun." I say.
"We're worried about you." He said. "And we're here to get down to business, not to have fun."
"Humph!" I glanced at him disdainfully, "We may be preparing to meet an important friend these days. ”
"Importantly friends? Your friend? ”
"Our friends, and possibly future allies." I say.
"What is it...... Ally? Did you find a clue? ”
"It's the way." I corrected.
"What is it?" He couldn't wait.
"I'll tell you then, Archmage." I refused to answer him.
Let them all go back to bed and lie down, and I climbed alone to the lookout at the very top of the mast. Looking at the night sky and the sea, I suddenly had some strange thoughts.
The next day I found Anak again, who had been waiting for me at the tavern for a long time, and the bartender looked at me with a strange look as I sat next to the black cow, who smiled at me.
I smiled and motioned for the bartender to continue serving. Maybe it's because of its huge size, isn't this thing drunk? I drank so much wine last night, and the average person ...... I guess even the orcs won't be able to withstand it. But this guy is like no one.
"Can we continue?" Anak said.
"You'll talk about it when you're cool today." I say. "Drink as much as you want, it's enough." As I spoke, I looked at the bartender and then at him, "Why don't you have something to eat?" ”
"A roasted wolf steak, a fried crocodile, a fruit salad, a cheese omelette, and an okra bisque." He said to the bartender.
The bartender raised an eyebrow and pouted, "Did you eat?" ”
"You're underestimating me." He said happily. "Let's start with a barrel of wine." He held out a thick finger. After saying that, he looked at me: "This way! So saying, he walked over to a large table by the window.
"Are you sure you're going to ask him?" The bartender whispered to me after watching him go.
"Hah! Oh, yes. I said.
"Humph!" The goblin snorted a little yin and yang.
