Chapter 487 Big Sister is Very Sad
Chapter 487 Big Sister is Very Sad
"Um, what happened?" Seeing that the atmosphere in Ur suddenly became tense, Mashu felt a little scared.
Although... Mashu could probably kill all the people in Ur all by herself, of course, the kind and lovely Sekiro wouldn't do that.
Before coming here, I talked about some basic information about Quetzalcoatl and Leopard Man.
But there was no mention of Ur.
"Meow ha ha ha, don't worry, don't worry, I am not here to make living sacrifices of you today, meow." The Leopard Man looked smug and said as if he didn't notice the change in the atmosphere. "Oh, don't worry, if I kill the living sacrifice, I will be called an old-fashioned person."
"Living sacrifice? Wait, the people here, Ur should be a city, there should be guards, where are the guards?" At this time, Fujimaru Ritsuka also reacted a little.
It can be said that Fujimaru Ritsuka's understanding of the ancient theocratic social structures is still superficial.
After all, originally, Fujimaru Ritsuka could be said to be a person who met on the street and joined Chaldea because of a blood test that showed he had affinity with spirit particles... Hmm, a high school student?
However, in order to deal with various potential situations, Fujimaru Ritsuka had to hastily absorb a lot of relevant knowledge. Although Fujimaru Ritsuka's understanding of the myths of various countries is still rough and only knows the general idea, Fujimaru Ritsuka knows that in ancient times, if the gods want to protect humans, humans need to offer corresponding sacrifices.
Among the myths and legends of many countries, the South American mythology system is unique, and there are many records of people being used as sacrifices.
Even those once-glorious empires, such as the Maya, Aztec, and Inca, considered human sacrifice an important national ritual.
Thinking of this, Fujimaru Ritsuka couldn't help but ask in a stern tone: "Nowadays, the number of men is scarce in this city. How many lives have you sacrificed as sacrifices?" Faced with Fujimaru Ritsuka's questioning, the women avoided Fujimaru Ritsuka's sight and did not dare to look him in the eye.
At this time, Merlin also spoke up. With his eyes half-closed, he did not look as scornful as before. He just said with a little sarcasm, "Based on the current ratio, is it really one a day?"
After arriving in the city, Merlin was able to easily tell the approximate number of people through his clairvoyance, and after a little comparison, he easily came to a conclusion.
Although... this was the conclusion he came to when he couldn't spy on the Temple of the Sun.
Following Merlin's words, Mashu and Anna could not help but subconsciously observe the situation around them.
Anna even said, "The worst," and then looked at the leopard man.
It looked as if he was ready to strike with the undead-slaying blade in his hand at any time.
"This is none of my business. I just followed the orders of that guy Kukul and took them to the Eridu Temple for forced labor. As a gourmet, I only enjoy the heart of a brave man!" The Leopard Man said with a hippie smile.
"I like birds, I like fish, I can eat people too. This is me, the Leopard Man!" The Leopard Man even...spun around a bit. Although he looked like a comedian, the words he said were inexplicably terrifying.
It is no wonder that people in Ur believe that those so-called "living sacrifices" have already been sacrificed.
Amid the leopard man's comedic remarks, the people of Ur, however, lived in Bengbu and said, "There's nothing we can do about it." On this side, one of them also started to cry out.
"If you want to survive in Ur, living sacrifice is a necessary price."
“Everyone makes their selection based on acceptance and recognition.”
The surrounding Ur people talked at once.
"Well, although interrupting you like this seems to have tarnished your consciousness, oh, or should I say, your filthiness has made you lose your safety, do you know? In South American mythology, Quetzalcoatl is one of the very few gods who does not need, or even hates, living sacrifices." Ji Qi on the side also said at this time.
Well, what she didn’t mention is that… The “true body” of the Leopard Man often involves living sacrifices.
However, as some of the leopard people said, most of the sacrifices are mainly hearts.
"What do you mean?" a widow asked in disbelief.
"Because it's very simple. When you accepted the idea that you can only survive by sacrificing those people, you have actually lost the qualification to be saved by that good god." Ji Qi said expressionlessly.
Quetzalcoatl is undoubtedly the pinnacle of good gods, but from another perspective, she is a god after all, not a human.
She admires those people who are brave enough to face difficulties and those who are willing to sacrifice themselves to protect others.
Therefore, only humans are qualified to be protected by Quetzalcoatl.
It should be noted that the "sacrifice" required by Quetzalcoatl was never just a male.
But the "strong one".
It can be someone who is physically strong, or it can be someone who is mentally strong.
The reason why there is such an imbalance between men and women now is that the women of Ur may be sad, but on the other hand, they have actually accepted this fact with peace of mind.
That is, they can get protection by sacrificing men, rather than sacrificing themselves. Maybe they think that sacrificing one person a day is not much.
After all, in Mesopotamia where monsters are rampant, it would be very dangerous if they were the only ones there.
If this god can really protect the country's peace and the people's happiness, it would undoubtedly be an extremely good deal.
If you think about it carefully, the sacrifice of one or even ten people every day seems reasonable.
Facing the attack of monsters, one wave of offensive may even result in more than that number of casualties.
Even if ten people were sacrificed every day, that would only be 3,650 people a year.
Such a death toll may be insignificant in populous East Asia, and even in relatively small-populated Europe, it is not enough to pose a threat.
In fact, the ancient Europeans did the same thing. They committed many heinous crimes in the name of God. Compared with these crimes committed due to greed and corrupt beliefs, human sacrifice in South America may be regarded as a relatively kind act.
Of course, these are all based on the perspective of ancient society. If we look at them from the perspective of modern values, these are unforgivable evil deeds.
“Eh? You know a lot about that guy Kukul. It really surprises me, the Leopard Man. But even though I’m surprised, my eyes won’t fall out of surprise, because this side is my eyes.” The Leopard Man spoke cheerfully as if he was performing a crosstalk, and then... pointed to his eyes above his tiger pajamas.
"We have lost the qualification to be saved? How is that possible? Aren't we living here?" At this time, the widow who had been crying before said in disbelief.
"With your intelligence, it's hard for me to explain to you. In short, the situation will change next. It's better for you to go to Uruk. Even the goddess may not be able to protect you in the next battle." Ji Qi said coldly.
If it is based on the original work.
First of all, Tiamat came from the sea, and the sea here in Uruk is southeast of Uruk, and then the Ur side is the south.
That is to say, the moment Tiamat lands and those "new humans" begin hunting, all the people in Ur will be killed and then transformed into "new humans."
This is the cruel truth.
So according to Lin Yun and his team's inference, if the people in Uruk were rescued in advance and at least taken to Uruk, they would not become waste that is not even cannon fodder, or even become enemies.
Well, in this regard, it can actually be considered as reducing the number of enemies.
In short, in theory, this should also be considered a side story.
Besides this, according to what the leopard man said before, the forest not far from here is the portal.
The armies of the Warhammer world could descend here at any time.
By then, these not-so-noble Ur people will most likely be corrupted, and might even become a slave army, if the portal contains an ancient portal that connects to the subspace.
It is not impossible to directly transform into a beastman.
The first troublemaker race in Warhammer is essentially a race that stirs up trouble just for the sake of causing trouble.
In short, these people must be moved away from here no matter what.
"Well, although I am optimistic about you, to be honest, these people are now Kukul's prey. If you take them away rashly like this, you will be bullied by Kukul until you cry. Really, that guy Kukul will not hold back." The leopard man said with a sad face.
Seeing the leopard man like this, Ji Qi and the others were also amused.
Speaking of which, in South American mythology, there are a total of five solar ages, and the second solar age created by Quetzalcoatl was the most prosperous, and even led to the fifth solar age.
That is now.
He can be said to be the god who contributed the most in South America, and then... Quetzalcoatl built on this side, and the jaguar represented by the Leopard Man, that is... the Smoke Mirror that players are more "familiar" with, has been causing trouble.
That's why Quetzalcoatl hates him, and because of this, the "kind" big sister likes to bully the leopard people so much.
By the way, because the smoke mirror also has the form of a big spider, this Quetzalcoatl also hates spiders.
"Don't worry, when the time comes, we will just throw you out." Ji Qi said with a smile.
"Why is this happening?" the Leopard Man said with a sad face.
And at this moment, "Wow, I was wondering what happened. It turns out that it was you who betrayed me, Leopard Man. I, your big sister, am very sad." A voice spread.
