The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge.

Chapter 68 God of the Ewoks
67. God of the Ewoks

Some children can even be seen walking on the streets accompanied by their guardians. These are frozen embryos adopted by residents. These accelerated embryos are now equivalent to 2 or 3 years old.Their accelerated growth stops by the age of 20, and after that there is a normal growth rate.

But the price is that these frozen embryos have a lifespan of only 50 years, and they need to inject specific genetic drugs to reproduce.But their offspring are normal people.

Despite these shortcomings, frozen embryos can serve as a good way to expand the population base of civilization.After 50 billion embryos are consumed, the entire Fourth Civilization should already have a considerable scale.

Tang Xiao strolled around the street again, only to see that after a few Ewoks sold the collected pearls, they replaced them with large and small bags of potatoes and sweet potatoes, and dragged them out of the city on the ground.Seeing how hard they were, Tang Xiao quickly stood aside to make way for them.

Who knew that these few Ewoks immediately threw away the food pockets in their hands after seeing Tang Xiao, knelt down to the ground and continued to worship him, and said something incomprehensible in Ewok language.

"Eh? You guys, what does this mean?" Tang Xiao was startled, and was at a loss for a while, not knowing whether to help them up or what to do.

"Haha! Manager, they are calling you a big elf!" An administrative official who accompanied Tang Xiao said with a smile, he knew some Ewok language.

"What is the Great Spirit?"

"The Ewoks believe in the pantheism, they believe that there are gods in everything in the world. Among them, the Great Spirit is in charge of everything, followed by the Light Spirit in charge of the day and the Night Spirit in charge of the night. They treat you as a great elf, almost giving you the status of a master god, haha." The official said with a smile.

"Then what should I do now?" Tang Xiao asked, pointing at the few Ewoks who were still worshipping.

"If you don't lift them up, they'll keep worshiping. You lift them up, touch their headgear, and that's it."

"Okay." Tang Xiao walked over and helped a few Ewoks up one by one, and then lightly touched the ornaments on their heads.

These Ewoks immediately cheered loudly, each of them stuffed Tang Xiao and a potato, and ran away.Only Tang Xiao, who was stunned, stood there holding a bunch of potatoes in a daze.

"Manager, you can see from the sky." The official pointed to the sky.

Tang Xiao looked up and saw that the weather today was very clear and there were no clouds in the sky. Against the backdrop of the huge gas giant planet in the sky, the mothership of the Glory in the synchronous orbit could actually be seen!

Speaking of which, the Glory re-entered the synchronous orbit today because it had to drop a batch of supplies to help the construction of the colony, and the result happened to appear in the sky.

"They regard the gas giant planet as a giant elves, we suddenly appeared here, and you are our leader, so they think the mothership is the giant elves' son, the giant elves, and you are the incarnation of the giant elves in the world." The official explained road.

"Okay... This identity is really..." Tang Xiao shook his head and didn't know what to say.

"By the way, the manager, today is the Moonlight Festival of the Ewoks. People from the Department of Bioengineering and the Department of Agriculture will have a party with them. Will you come at night?" the official asked.

"Okay, I'll go tonight." Tang Xiao smiled and nodded.

……

Night fell on the land of Dawn Planet, but the night of this planet was not so dark, because the sunlight reflected by the huge gas giant Endor still sprinkled softly on the ground.

Occasionally, when the planet orbits between the star and the gas giants of Endor, there are also extreme days.But what's different about this polar day is that the side facing the star is bright during the day, and the side facing the gaseous planet Endor is bright night.

Today is such a day.

According to the custom of the Ewok people, they will hold a grand dinner on the first seven days after the arrival of the polar day.Because they believe that the polar day is the time when the light elves and night elves greet the giant elves and pray for a good harvest in the coming year.

The Ewoks also pray to the sky with dances and songs, hoping that the earth will no longer be angry (earthquakes), that the beasts will no longer grow fangs, and that the descendants will not be sick.

In the clearing between Dawn City and the forest outside, hundreds of Ewoks sang and danced in front of a huge bonfire.They are musically gifted and can play rhythmic music with just about anything that makes a sound in their hands.

Animal skin drums, empty tree trunks, and even helmets thrown at them by Marines from the Fourth Civilization.

A huge corpse of a ten-meter-long Endorian swamp beast was placed next to it—a large beast on the planet of dawn, which was hunted only with the help of the Marine Corps of the Fourth Civilization.

The body of the swamp beast was cut into several pieces, and the Ewoks themselves took a knife made of stone to cut pieces of meat from the huge corpse, then roasted it on the fire, sprinkled with their unique juice from plants , the smell is fragrant.

The Department of Bioengineering and the Department of Agriculture of the Fourth Civilization were invited to participate in this festive dinner, and they usually communicated the most with the Ewoks.They taught the Ewoks systematic farming, taught them to make some more complex tools for hunting, and brought some Ewoks back to learn Galactic Standard and help the colony work to earn income. It was also proposed by the bioengineering department.

The Ewoks also helped them a lot, such as helping people in the bioengineering department identify various plants, familiarize themselves with the habits of some animals, and whether those animals are suitable for breeding and so on.

It is precisely because of this that people from the Department of Biological Engineering and the Ministry of Agriculture were invited to the first festival held by the Ewoks after the Fourth Civilization descended on the Dawn Planet.However, because it is very lively here, many residents of Dawn City also rushed over to join the banquet.

Tang Xiao and several tribal leaders of the Ewoks sat on the high platform built with branches, and from time to time, the Ewoks came to him to pray for blessings.Tang Xiao is much more proficient now. He will wait for the Ewoks who come to pray for blessings to kneel before touching the decorations on their heads.

The decorations on the heads of the Ewoks are various, including leaves, bones, fruits, shells and so on.And according to those who know a little Ewok, these decorations have special meanings.

At the beginning of the party, the Ewoks were mainly singing and dancing, and the residents of Dawn City came to participate and brought some beers.Although there is no brewery now, there is still some stock of beer in the mothership. This time, with the approval of Gulaham, who has been upgraded to the mayor, half of the stock beer has been removed.
