Chapter 889: The Mystic Tribe

Everything that happened on Skyfall Island subsequently caused a huge uproar in the spirit world.

The impact of the catastrophe was extremely wide, and almost no tribe was not affected, because every existing tribe believed in a certain god, and 99% of these gods fell in this war.

However, this influence temporarily stopped at a relatively high level, that is, the powerful high-ranking priests, ruling officials and military generals, who quickly got the news and were inevitably panicked. However, relying on years of experience and at least qualified political instincts, they all suppressed the spread of the news to the lower-level spiritual world people and believers.

Although it is probably impossible to conceal it forever, if it can be concealed for a day, the top management will have a day to deal with it. Once the strategy is discussed, it will be leaked down bit by bit.

Of course, they thought so, and the strategy was definitely not wrong. However, it also required the permission of others.

"Ah Jing, Ah Jing! Have you heard?"

A girl with antlers on her head and a round nose, who looked like an elk, ran to the edge of the village in panic.

This village with several hundred households is built in the forest. There are tall trees everywhere in the village, which looks very natural.

There is a small house near the village, with a thatched roof and wooden walls. The roof is decorated with fresh leaves and flowers. It looks no different from other houses in the village. At most, it is a little smaller and simpler. Unlike those big houses that have been weathered by wind and rain, this house looks new, as if it was just built.

As she shouted, another girl came out of the house. She was about the same age, also had antlers on her head, and her appearance was more dignified and beautiful.

The dignified girl, A Jing, was holding a large plate of fresh fruits, all of which were green and cute little triangular fruits with water droplets on them. She said, "A Rong is here? Try the new Qingjiao fruit."

The young girl, Arong, said hurriedly, "Hey, when can you not eat fruit? Don't you know? There's going to be chaos outside."

Ah Jing raised her head slightly and saw thick clouds all over the sky. The weather was gloomier than usual. It was clearly noon, but it was as dark as evening. But other than that, there was nothing wrong. She said, "Is the sky overturned? I don't think so. The sky hasn't fallen down yet."

Ah Rong said repeatedly: "It hasn't fallen yet, but it's almost there. Have you heard? Our god, Lord Rong Shen, has fallen."

Ah Jing was stunned for a moment, and said quickly: "Nonsense, you are talking nonsense! How can you say such a thing? How can God fall? God is eternal and immortal!"

Ah Rong said in a trembling voice, "Don't talk about eternity. What happened has already happened clearly. At the Pantheon Conference last month, Lord Rong really fell. No matter how good and reasonable the priest's theory sounds, it can't revive the gods. Gods can really die! I also heard that it's not just our gods, but also the gods of other tribes. Those big gods, those gods with boundless magic power, all disappeared overnight, all dead!"

Ah Jing was a little flustered and said, "Ah, is it true? How could this happen? Oh, what should I do? I haven't received the God's gift yet, and I haven't become an adult Deer Horn Warrior yet? What should I do in the future?"

Ah Rong was stunned for a moment. She was too shocked and scared to think about more realistic issues. Ah Jing was right. The most important thing for the Jungle Mystery Tribe was to receive the gift of the antler god at the age of 20, gaining divine power and vitality. At that time, they would become warriors or doctors, and finally have a formal status and future. Only then would they consider getting married or going to the battlefield to gain status, and then looking for a partner to start a family.

She and Ajing are both members of the tribe who are less than ten years old, but they will turn twenty this year and will be able to receive the blessing soon. If the gods fall, they will never have another chance.

Ah Rong also became anxious and said, "What should I do? The God didn't die earlier or later, but this year. It's too terrible..."

Then a voice shouted, "Arong, what are you talking about?!"

The two turned around and saw a middle-aged female tribesman walking towards them. The horns on her head were much more complicated than those of the two girls, and they were dark gold in color, indicating that she had great strength and was an outstanding antler warrior.

Ah Rong hurriedly said, "Aunt Wen, I'm not talking nonsense, God really is..."

My aunt yelled, "I'm not talking about God, I'm talking about you! What's true or false? Right now, nothing you say is right. The most important thing is to shut up!"

She walked over and scolded him in a low voice: "Do you know what the first order of the elders' meeting was today? It was to investigate the rumor! We need to investigate why such an absurd rumor spread throughout the six tribes overnight? Even a little kid like you knew about it in an instant. Isn't this a deliberate evil villain messing with things? Tell me, where did you know it from?"

Ah Rong was timid and answered without hesitation: "I got it from my cousin Ah Fei. He was chatting with a few friends. Why don't you ask him?"

Aunt Wen sighed and said, "So it was him. I don't need to ask him anymore, he has been arrested. The knights are torturing him now. If he doesn't tell the truth, his life will probably be over."

Ah Rong's face changed drastically, and she said, "Why is this happening..."

Aunt Wen stared at her and said, "You just realized how powerful I am. If it weren't for the fact that there were only the two of you here, if there was another member of the tribe here, I would have arrested you as well! Not to mention you, I heard that the source of the rumor was the Qiu tribe, and the Council of Elders has already sent a team of knights to surround them. No one in their tribe, young or old, can be spared, and we will investigate to the end. If you still want to live in peace, shut up."

Ah Rong was already trembling, and said, "I won't say anything, I won't say anything again." Aunt Wen nodded and said, "I also heard that you are worried about the coming-of-age ceremony. You certainly can't take care of it now, but after this period of time, there will always be a way. Does that mean the tribe will not develop? There must be a plan. You kids should stop worrying about big things and don't make trouble. Ah Jing..."

She looked at Ah Jing and whispered, "Your mother asked you to bring the token and property back to our Xia tribe. You are also a member of our Xia tribe. You are also a member of the Xia tribe in any way. You... are my niece. So you can't tell anyone that you escaped from the Qiu tribe, understand? And Ah Rong, you are not allowed to tell anyone either!"

Ah Jing and Ah Rong nodded repeatedly. Ah Rong said, "I will never tell other tribe members. Ah Jing is obviously my good friend who grew up together. What does she have to do with the tribe outside?"

Aunt Wen nodded and said again: "If you hear any rumors, or...if foreign scammers try to tempt you to convert, don't be fooled! Be sure to notify me immediately!" After that, she hurried away.

Ah Jing looked at her from behind, sighed, and said, "Aunt is a good person, and you are also a good person. You are all good people."

  Ah Rong said, "What's this little thing? You are originally of our tribe's bloodline, and it's not fake. Alas, although you are not allowed to talk, but you said that your aunt said that we have to find a way to hold the coming-of-age ceremony. Does it mean... God has really fallen? It can't control us anymore? So it's really not a rumor?"

Ah Jing said: "Maybe..." She lowered her voice and said: "In fact, if it is a complete rumor, then there is no need to make such a big fuss. Just refute the rumor with confidence. Making such a big fuss seems like..."

Ah Rong asked, "Feeling guilty?"

Ah Jing pressed her lips with her fingers and said, "If it were me, I wouldn't use such a hard-line method. The more the official opposes it, the more likely it is to be true. Ah... I said too much."

Arong looked thoughtful.

The two girls changed the subject. Arong ate the fruit and wanted to chat about daily trivial matters as usual, but she lost interest in the conversation and left in a hurry.

Ah Jing also watched her leave, and secretly said in her heart: I'm sorry, Ah Rong. This is not a rumor, and it's a good thing that you knew it early.

She touched her hair gently, actually pressing the antlers on her head to prevent them from falling off.

Suddenly, Ah Jing felt something in her heart, so she went back to her hut. Her hut was newly built, and although it looked simple, it was full of secrets.

There is a secret inside. It is not that there are any sophisticated mechanisms. In fact, there is only a transparent film that is almost attached to the wall. It can be put away with just a thought. However, it can isolate the inside and outside, silent and create the illusion of a peaceful daily life. It even has a good protective function. When the enemy from the outside attacks, it can buy the people inside one or two breaths of time, enough to initiate a space transfer and escape.

  Yes, when you are in a foreign country and doing a dangerous job, how can you not be prepared to escape at all times?

Ajing sat on a chair that was placed in the shadow, so she could monitor the door and prevent outsiders from seeing her the first time they entered.

After everything was done, she didn't take out anything, just sat there quietly, with a different look from outside.

If her expression could be described as dignified before, it was now dull, and even her round deer nose did not add any playfulness.

This is what she looks like every day.

One of her eyes flashed an extremely obscure blue light.

Outsiders would never notice that there was a thin lens on her eyeballs, which was flashing lines of characters.

Every time she used this magic weapon, she felt a little emotional: today's technology is really getting more and more advanced, and the people who develop technology are so imaginative.

How did you come up with the idea of ​​wearing a lens on your eyes, being able to see the information on it, and also send and receive messages? And how did you achieve this?

She gave a low command - limited by its size and what they called the symbolic computing power, this lens could not be controlled by the mind, and could only be commanded by voice. However, there was a special secret language that did not express meaning, so even if an outsider eavesdropped, they would not be able to hear anything.

"Task--"

A panel appeared on the glasses, which read "Spread the news of the fall of the gods among your tribe. The wider the better. Be careful to hide and stay safe."

"Marked. Completed. Spreading range: six tribes of the Jungle Mystery Tribe, two tribes of the surrounding Lake Cat Tribe, and one tribe of the Western Lijia Tribe. Effect: Temporarily trigger suppression..."

"Wait for instructions. Tiger's Lair Plan Group 3, keep quiet."

"send."
