Don't call me evil god

Chapter 468: Change of Faith?

Reina also consulted Yanhu about the mysterious dwarf card.

Yan Hu gave a corresponding reply.

"It is possible to use clan cards to find people. Even if they are from the same dwarf family, the content on the clan cards will be different."

Yan Hu also read out to Lena the contents of the Freeman family tablet that had been passed down to him by his great-grandfather:

"A proof of long-lasting glory, a witness to the craftsmanship of the cold spirit, a primordial spirit with pure blood."

The back side reads:

"Freeman family, Rockfinger, son of Cardero Freeman, in the year 781 of the New Huili, reached adulthood, and left."

Yanzhi is the name of Yanhu’s great-grandfather, and the name at the back is the name of Yanhu’s great-grandfather’s father.

This family plaque means that Rockfinger Freeman came of age in 781 New Huili, left the family, and lost his surname.

If his descendants can once again demonstrate the talents and abilities of the Freeman family, they can use the family card to find the blood relatives of their corresponding ancestors in the family.

no way.

The life span of dwarves is quite long.

Even though their birth rate is not high, with an average of 40 to 50 years per generation, there is often a miraculous sight of 6 or 7 generations living under the same roof.

Without the family card, it is not easy to trace back and find relatives.

In addition to being "expelled" for not meeting the family's requirements upon reaching adulthood, there is another way to be issued a family card:

marriage.

The dwarves living on the second floor of the stone fortress attach great importance to the power of their ancestral bloodline.

They will only marry and reproduce with other dwarves from large families on the second level.

After marriage, a female dwarf will add her husband's surname to her original name.

The child's surname is determined by the casting magic that corresponds to the bloodline power he displays.

If it is the father, then the surname is taken from the husband;

Otherwise, take the mother's surname.

And after they reach adulthood, they will belong to the corresponding family.

Dwarves are generally loyal, so it is almost impossible for...the bloodline power to correspond to the casting magic that the third dwarf family is good at.

all in all.

Although the clan card cannot be accurately located directly on a specific dwarf.

But it can be confirmed which family and bloodline the other person belongs to.

In other words, you can know who the other person's ancestors are!
And there is some very important good news for Pete and the others.

"According to your description," Yanhu added the dwarven customs he knew, "the clan card accidentally fell from the other party, which means that the other party attaches great importance to the clan card, to the extent that he carries it with him."

"Usually."

"Only dwarves who have just received their clan cards, that is, dwarves who have just reached adulthood, been expelled from their clan, and lost their surnames, will do this."

"From past history."

"This generation of dwarves has the highest chance of successfully receiving the family's signature casting magic blessing one day after they reach adulthood."

"They can use this to return to the family."

"The more you reproduce, the lower the chance that your offspring will receive the corresponding divine blessing."

Yan Hu grinned self-deprecatingly: "For example, me, my father, my grandfather, the bloodline of the Freeman family has been passed down to me, and it is probably really negligible."

"I don't expect to receive the protection of my ancestors through my bloodline, or be blessed by the gods to return to my family."

"The clan tablets are kept at home, simply as a custom passed down according to tradition."

"In fact, dwarves like us have already gotten used to our current lives. Since we can't go back to our family, we won't think about it all the time."

"We can still eat meat and drink wine every day and create what we like."

"Yanhu Brackett is a good name too, life can go on with it." Lena said nothing.

However, in the information fed back by the magic of [Revealing the Secrets of All Things], the other party's mentality became unusually complicated.

There is helplessness, loss, desire and unwillingness.

……

After bidding farewell to Yanhu Brackett, Pete and his party stumbled down the steps in the mountain wall, passed through the passage, and returned to the open circular platform on the 4th floor of the stone fortress.

"Why do dwarves have such a strange family concept?"

Gail felt that he couldn't understand.

As for maintaining the purity of blood, the humans of the Kingdom of Reyak, especially the great nobles in the western part of the kingdom, also have similar operations.

The descendants of nobility only marry the descendants of nobility of roughly the same level.

But they would never kick their offspring out of the family just because they "fail to show the blessing of bloodline".

Human nobles are all very rich, and they can afford to raise a few more.

When Gale was studying in Greenport, there were actually quite a few students of his age in Caron O'Fa Academy, and their affinity with the Goddess of Magic was extremely poor.

It cannot be said that it is almost isolated, but it can also be said that there is no hope of blessing at all.

They are the "fake mages" who can't even create an arcane spark.

The only way to pass the test is to pay off the examiner, then secretly tear off a scroll and pretend that you have successfully released the corresponding magic.

These students are basically the children of the nobles in the western part of the Kingdom of Reyak.

He has no talent at all and just relied on money to get the so-called "Graduate 3rd Level Mage of Carron Academy" badge.

Even though they are so useless, they can still stay at home and continue to be raised, doing nothing and playing all day long.

In comparison, the dwarves' rules are simply ruthless and cold-blooded.

He is obviously my blood relative.

Because your strength does not meet the family's requirements and you don't even have a surname, the family simply refuses to acknowledge your existence.

“This is too extreme!”

This is the feeling expressed by Gale.

Regarding this, Pete is quite open-minded:

"Don't forget it."

"The average lifespan of dwarves is nearly 300 years."

"It's meaningless to discuss ethics and family values ​​with the Immortals."

"Just like the dark elves in the Deep Region, their lifespan is even more outrageous. A pure-blooded dark elf can live for more than 700 years."

"The dark elves believe in the God of Pleasure and are quite open in their pursuit of pleasure. This is not only influenced by their teachings, but also because they are actually collecting stamps."

"If you live such a long life and only spend your whole life with one partner, you will soon get completely bored and nothing new will happen."

"It would be better to find more people of the opposite sex with different races and looks, um...even the same sex, so that they can experience something different and fresh."

"Same thing."

"Who knows what the dwarves are thinking? These muscled, stone-headed people may simply be stubborn and don't know how to adapt."

"Instead of dwelling on this, we should hurry up and think of a way to enter the second floor of the stone fortress."

Brandon had been silent until this moment, scratching his head and asking hesitantly:

"Uh... guys, I have a question."

"The blessing that dwarves receive through their bloodline... can they also receive blessings through faith in the God of Knowledge?"
