Chapter 1502 The Road of Gods, Endless Snow Bandits!
Norman left the patriarch's shack, feeling strangely excited.
He looked up at the sky. The gray sky seemed a little clearer, which made people feel happy.
From ordinary slave to slave captain.
Although he was still a slave and did not have the human rights of a normal resident, what happened unexpectedly today made him suddenly grasp the hope of living well in the Fire Fist tribe.
Everything here seems strange though.
The priest never felt that he was superior to others. He would stand at the exit of the tribe on time every day and greet the passing residents and slaves.
The leader of the clan, Shenlong, is nowhere to be seen. He doesn't know what he is tinkering with in the house every day, but his authority in the tribe is obviously greater than that of the priest.
Moreover, the gods of this Fire Fist tribe can even perform dreams.
Yes, gods!
Thinking of this, Norman looked up at the temple, with an obvious doubt flashing in his eyes.
Before that, his belief in gods was indeed dispensable, and he just followed the crowd like everyone else.
But everything that happened today was obviously beyond his ability to understand.
Could it be that the gods that all the priests believed in really existed?
Could it be that those who prayed to the statues yesterday were really heard by the gods?
Norman took a deep breath. No matter what, he decided to go to the temple to worship every day.
Perhaps the gods sensed his piety and might send more rewards.
"Hey, Norman, you...why are you back?"
The slaves were still squatting on the ground drinking gruel, and were shocked when they saw Norman walking back carefree.
Especially Brown, who had just gone to report it in the morning, was trembling all over, thinking that he had been deceived.
This... except for the obvious smell of urine and feces, Norman didn't look like he had been beaten.
Could it be that the leader of the Fire Fist Tribe is so tolerant that he can tolerate a slave teasing him behind his back?
Soon, the slaves' doubts were answered.
Huang Xiangyu coughed lightly, walked up from the side, put his hand on Norman's shoulder and said loudly:
"From today on, Norman is your captain. He will supervise the completion of your work and has certain rights to punish you. Of course, he will also be responsible for the consequences of your failure to complete your work."
"More specifically, I will tell Norman this afternoon and he will inform you."
What?
Not only was Norman okay, but he also became the captain of the slave group?
Brown was stunned, his eyes widened, and he almost thought he was still dreaming.
A slave who casually teased the patriarch was not only not punished, but was also promoted to captain.
Is this... is this a fucking joke?
Brown couldn't help but cursed in his heart, but at the same time, he suddenly looked at Norman.
Norman, who became the captain, has the right to punish. If this was targeted at him, wouldn't everything be over?
Fortunately, Norman didn't pay attention to him at this moment, but looked at all the slaves.
"The patriarch trusts me and entrusts me to complete such an important matter. Norman will definitely live up to this trust! Please also rest assured that as long as you can complete your daily work, Norman will not use lame excuses to embarrass you. I will help you get the rewards you deserve.”
Norman, who was full of talent, made a promise, and his chest was beating loudly.
And then, he also used actions to prove that what he said was true.
Throughout the morning, the slaves worked extremely hard, fearing that they would be burned by the new official's appointment.
But when it was lunch time, three slaves got a 'wotou' as a reward.
"I said, I will help everyone get the rewards they deserve!"
Norman pulled down his hair, raised his right hand high, and reiterated his principles.
The slaves cheered immediately, but more people were confused.
Until the afternoon and until dinner, Brown, who was extremely tormented, took the initiative to find Norman and confess.
"I'm sorry. It's true that I betrayed you. If you want to take revenge on me, do it now!"
Brown gave it a go.
Instead of living in constant fear, take the initiative.
Once Norman chooses revenge, he still has the opportunity to ask Captain Huang for help and use slave rules to defend himself.
However, to his great surprise, Norman shook his head slightly and pulled him to kneel down at the temple of yesterday.
It's still a familiar futon and a familiar location.
But the difference is that as soon as Norman entered the temple, his expression became extremely pious.
"Brown."
"Um."
"If it were yesterday, I would definitely try my best to retaliate against you and make you pay for your betrayal."
Norman put his hands together and kowtowed gently, "But today, I want to thank you."
"ah?"
"Do you know what happened this morning?"
Brown shook his head slightly, as if he was all ears.
"The patriarch called me over in the morning. I thought he was going to pursue what happened yesterday, but the patriarch told me... It was God. The god told the patriarch in a dream that Brooks Norman was a very bold man. He Unlike other slaves, it is likely to bring hope to the tribe, so let the clan leader reward it. "
"What?" Brown was dumbfounded.
god?
In a dream?
Although the two of them are not Chinese, they have been in the tribe formed by the Chinese for a long time, and they also know what some special nouns mean.
"Yes, you heard it right, it was God who blessed my offense and gave me a second life!"
Norman knelt down again and kowtowed.
Seeing him looking so respectful, even though Brown was puzzled, he still followed his example and kowtowed.
However, Brown did not notice that Norman, who kowtowed for the third time, did not raise his head for a long time, with a look of surprise and shock on his face.
"Boulder...god?"
A piece of information suddenly appeared in Norman's mind.
God...does he have a name?
...
In the blink of an eye, three days passed.
"Thomas, haste makes waste. You've been too mentally stressed recently. Take a good rest for a day."
Walking from the patriarch's hut to the rear exit of the Fire Fist tribe, Somo took two deep breaths and persuaded the tireless Thomas.
Ever since he was seriously injured by Zhang Tai that day, Thomas has never stopped practicing like crazy.
Somo didn't feel anything wrong during the half month he was lying in bed, but in the past two days, he paid close attention to Thomas' daily life.
There are twenty-four hours a day, and Thomas spends eighteen of them practicing.
This attitude is too crazy!
"Chief, time waits for us not. Enemies in the darkness will appear at any time. If you don't sweat now, you will bleed later."
Thomas was not firm on many things, but he was determined to move forward in spiritual practice.
Especially now, when it is impossible to obtain new magical skills and improve combat capabilities.
All he could do was to become familiar with the physical qualities of the fourth-level priests as much as possible and find ways to make up for it with melee combat.
"You're right, but you still need to take a rest."
Somo narrowed his eyes and yawned.
"I haven't been to the surrounding tribes since I became the clan leader. Why don't you accompany me for a walk today?"
"oh?"
When Thomas heard this, he did not refuse, but raised his eyebrows with slight interest.
Speaking of which, this was the first time Sumo proposed visiting surrounding tribes after becoming the clan leader.
But then he thought about what happened in the tribe in the past few days, and he shuddered quickly, pointed in the direction of the shrine and said:
"Clan leader, you don't want to take the... giant... ahem, bring it to the surrounding tribes, do you?"
In recent days, the belief in the Stone God has spread extremely quickly among the Fire Fist tribe.
Starting from the slaves who were the first to worship, and then to the original residents of the tribe.
Although no one has come forward yet and dared to name the god as the ‘Big Stone’, private discussions have never stopped.
"Of course...not."
Sumo smiled and shook his head. He was still a little worried.
Relying on the spread of the Stone God's faith, the Fire Fist tribe now has nearly sixty fanatic believers, more than ten times the number before.
But this change does not mean that he can openly spread the belief in the 'Big Stone God' to other tribes.
Even using force to intimidate them is not enough.
After all, only spontaneous faith will be firm and there will be room for continuous improvement.
"The purpose of our visit is simple, to see if we can borrow some supplies and people."
Sumo planned to adopt a curved approach to save the country.
Since the faith cannot be spread to the other tribe, then bring people to the Fire Fist tribe to spread it.
The increase of sixty fanatical believers has increased the area of Spirit Island to a full five square meters.
Incidentally, it also inspired a task that proved Somo's previous conjecture.
The new task requires increasing the number of fanatical believers to one hundred to start the path to the gods.
Although the game does not clearly explain what rewards will be obtained by opening the path to the gods, Sumo has a strong hunch that this path to the gods may be the key to breaking the game.
Therefore, quickly increasing the population of the Fire Fist Tribe to one hundred or more has naturally become the most important goal at the moment.
"Borrowing some supplies and people... is not a difficult task for us now."
Thomas nodded, showing a rare hint of domineering.
He is not worried that the surrounding tribes will reject the Fire Fist tribe. This is the strong confidence brought by the fourth-level priest level.
Even Zhang Tai from the Zhushikeng tribe is now confident that he can defeat him.
"Let's start with the Red Rain Tribe. We only borrow five people from each family. I'm sure they won't refuse."
Soma selected the target.
The current Fire Fist tribe can only say that the supplies are barely enough to last until the farming period.
If you borrow too many people, this balance will inevitably be disturbed.
Therefore, we borrowed five people from each of the six tribes of the 'Fire Fist Alliance' to make a total of thirty people.
Facts have proved that borrowing people is not difficult.
Somo's first official visit to the surrounding tribes was met with an unusually grand welcome ceremony.
Especially the Hongyu Tribe, Bingyun Tribe, and Dilong Tribe.
After hearing Sumo's request, he agreed without thinking. Incidentally, he also gave a month's rations for five people as a gift for Sumo as the clan leader.
The other three companies were slightly in need of supplies and were not so generous, but they also lent them supplies for a month.
"Clan Chief Soma, if you still need it, you are welcome to come back at any time."
The Fire Fist tribe borrowed people, which can be regarded as helping these tribes share some of the pressure.
In the late winter, there is not much work that needs to be performed manually.
That is to say, the Fire Fist Tribe found two radiation mines before, so that the slaves could have a place to work every day.
In other surrounding tribes, half of the people are idle every day and have no place to work.
Of course, all those being lent out were slaves, and the residents of this tribe still had no intention of going to other tribes.
evening.
It was dark.
With these slaves, Su Mo returned to the tribe with satisfaction and started a new round of attack.
Perhaps the believers of the ‘Giant Stone God’ have already formed a scale in the slave group, or perhaps the treatment of the Fire Fist Tribe is obviously better than the tribes before these people.
This time, the spread of faith was surprisingly easy.
The new slaves only worked for two days, and half of them believed in the existence of the Giant Stone God.
In addition, the old residents were also solidifying their faith, and the 100 people required by the task were finally on the verge of being gathered.
Only the last step is needed to complete it!
...
New World.
East.
Alien Assembly Palace.
"Damn it, didn't you say that Su Mo couldn't turn the tables? How come he is still living so comfortably?"
With the release of the latest gambling ranking list, Yin Yuan was furious.
On the strength list.
More and more humans have acquired the talent of divine arts, and they have gradually approached the limit of 1,000 people that the list can record.
A total of 876 people have acquired the talent of divine arts and have the qualifications to practice divine arts.
Although it was a relief not to see Su Mo's name here, as long as you flip to the next tribal list, Su Mo's name is reflected at the top.
Fire Fist Tribe, 121 people.
Including: 7 ordinary believers, 16 devout believers, 97 fanatics, and 1 loyal believer.
This sudden development is too amazing.
In particular, the number of fanatics far exceeds that of ordinary believers and devout believers, which is simply unbelievable.
Of course, this development alone would not make Yin Yuan so angry.
What he could not accept the most was the last belief list.
"Giant Stone God, damn it, he actually founded the belief one step earlier than us."
Yin Yuan could not accept this result.
It has been a month since the gambling fight started. Even if the aliens and humans are fighting on the front line, the aliens have won battles and captured cities everywhere.
But as long as they can't win this gambling fight, everything will be in vain.
This change made Yin Yuan's heart sink, and he could not help but feel a little anxious and fearful.
"Master Yin Yuan, it's not your style to be so anxious."
The human in the shadows finally spoke, but he was still very confident while speaking.
"Except for choosing to escape at the beginning, Su Mo wanted to break the situation violently, there were only two ways to go."
"First, look for opportunities to obtain divine talents and rely on hard power to break the obstacles we set up."
"Second, avoid direct conflicts and use the way of rooting faith to follow the path of gods."
Yin Yuan was even more angry after hearing this.
"Yes, he found it, he found a way to break the situation!"
The path of gods is the key to truly winning the battle of faith, and it is also the result he least wants to see.
Su Mo can be faster than the aliens, which is completely beyond the plan.
"Found it... but it doesn't mean that it can be done."
The voice in the dark sounded meaningful.
"He can pull together a Sumen with tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of people in the wasteland. How can we not be on guard against his performance in the gambling world?"
"Did you leave a backup plan?" Yin Yuan was stunned when he heard this.
"Of course, you haven't forgotten the... snow bandits we arranged?"
The human voice finally couldn't help laughing, "When he finally gathers the conditions to open the road to the gods, the endless snow bandits will make him immediately understand how stupid it is to choose this road!"
