Gods do exist in this world. →For example, the Asgardians, the Olympians, and the Egyptians. In addition, there are also some barbaric gods and animal gods outside of those ancient civilizations.
The barbaric gods, such as the cheetah goddess of the ancient African Sen tribe who possessed Barbara Minerva, are barbaric gods. They were born in primitive worship and often have very bad personalities, barbaric, bloody, and irrational.
The birth of animal gods is a little more complicated. Sometimes in ancient times, some powerful animals and beasts gained divine power and became animal gods, or they were spiritual creatures born from animal totems in primitive society. Sometimes barbaric gods and animal gods are mixed together, but it doesn't matter. Anyway, no one really bothered about this in ancient times. It's just a matter of taste.
The god who chose Susie is the animal god.
It has no name. The first people to believe in it were the Iroquois among the native peoples of North America. The Iroquois named it the Earth Mother.
The Iroquois worshipped many gods, but the status of the gods of heaven was the highest. It is said that it is the "Lord of the Sky", which is translated into "the god who holds up the sky in two places" in Indian language. It often conveys its will to people in the form of dreams. The image of this god of the sky is a man wearing a light blue dog-skin cloak, and his body is extremely tall. In addition to the god of the sky, the Iroquois also believe in another god of the "Lord of Life", which is said to be a good god who created the natural world and brought light to people.
Like many civilizations, myths are dualistic, so there are gods that are opposed to the god of the "Lord of Life", which are those forces that bring harm, darkness and disadvantages to people, that is, the twin brothers of the god of the "Lord of Life" - the god of winter, cold and ice, whose image is wearing an ice coat, carrying hunger and poverty, and it represents all harmful things in nature. In the legend of the Iroquois, people believe that the two twin brothers have always been hostile. Why did the originally flat ground become mountains and valleys now?
It was caused by the fierce fight between the two brothers due to hostility.
In the early days, the Iroquois believed that the grandmother of the two twin brothers was also the incarnation of the dark power. Her image was a black-bodied goddess who represented darkness, night, disease and death. She was associated with black soil and death and was a fierce god.
Later, as the Iroquois became increasingly dependent on agriculture, they turned their fear of this fierce god around and worshipped her like their mother and benefactor, just like the worship of the "Earth Mother" by all agricultural nations.
The worship of the Earth Mother originated from an unconscious archaeological discovery. When the earliest group of Iroquois were collecting stones to make stone tools, they found a fossilized skull of an ancient cat from a large stone.
People at that time didn't know what fossils were, so they naturally thought that it was the skull of the God of the Earth.
So the earliest worship of the Earth God began.
Later, she inexplicably became a goddess and also became the Earth Mother Goddess.
This kind of gods born from the purest worship of mankind often have a deep connection with believers. Simply put, the more people believe in it, the stronger it is. Otherwise, it will gradually weaken. With the discovery of the New World, the Indian natives were massacred, and this kind of primitive worship naturally died out.
Under normal circumstances, the Earth Mother Goddess should have died. But there is no shortage of surprises in this world. The Earth Mother Goddess survived miraculously. Perhaps this is related to the fact that her body is real, but it doesn't matter. There are many unscientific things in this world, and she is not the only one missing.
In short, the Earth Mother Goddess chose Susie. She gave Susie inhuman power. But everything has a price, and the Earth Mother Goddess's gift is no exception.
Susie has a mission, which is to help the Earth Mother Goddess find her body.
It is also a skull worshipped by the Iroquois. Over the years, the skull has been broken, but the Iroquois have preserved the fragments with various techniques. For example, the sharp tooth pendant. Simply put, the fragments of the skull were made into various crafts and scattered all over the world.
This is difficult, because no one knows how many pieces of the skull fragments there are, how many crafts they are made into, and where they are. This is almost a career that Susie needs to work hard for her whole life.
Susie couldn't refuse. The moment she accepted the gift, she had to complete the task.
Because of this, Susie had to leave Kai.
It's not that Susie didn't want to find Kai, but as Kai became more and more famous as a police officer, she was more afraid to meet her because she was a thief. After all, she couldn't think of many ways to collect those fragments. Of course, it's also Susie's fault that she was too young. Although she was smart, her vision was still a little worse. She could have asked Kai for help. After all, Kai was a real rich man. He completely used money to solve those Iroquois crafts. It's nothing more than spending money.
As for why Susie agreed to Luke and Matt's invitation so readily, it was actually largely because of Kai.
She knew that Kai had been dealing with the Hand and the Society.
If she could help Kai, she would do anything.
Thinking of this, Susie took off her clothes and went into the bathroom. Only when she was alone would she reminisce about Kai's every detail without restraint.
…
"Is this the person who first discovered Hope?" Kai looked at a man who was hiding timidly in the corner of the cell and asked his colleague.
"That's right." The police officer was a member of Misk's team and was sent by Misk to assist Kai.
After discovering that Hope might have been manipulated by hypnosis, Misk quickly realized that this case was unusual. She was happy. Since Kai already knew about it, she didn't mind Kai's participation, but she asked that this case be mainly handled by her team.
Kai understood what it meant. Fighting for credit.
This kind of thing is very common, and there is nothing wrong with it. If a leader can't fight for credit for his subordinates, what kind of leader is he. This is related to personal interests, and no one will be grateful to you for not fighting for credit.
And to be honest, this case was originally someone else's, and it was against the rules for Kai to intervene like this. It is very rare that others are willing to let you participate. It's a bit too much for you to distinguish other people's credit.
So Kai told her very frankly that she didn't need to write him into the report. →
Meaning, he was helping on a voluntary basis this time.
Misk was naturally happy to accept Kai's choice. So the cooperation was reached.
Because of this, the people in the Misk team were quite nice to Kai. Who doesn't like free stuff?
"What's wrong with this guy?" Kai came here today for an important certification in the Hope case. That's the guy he just mentioned.
"Well... he was charged with kidnapping and sexual assault... this is a prison." The police officer said a little obscurely.
"Oh~" Kai already understood.
Human culture is actually quite interesting sometimes. For example, two completely different cultures will have very interesting convergences in some aspects. Prison culture is like this.
The cultures inside most prisons in the world are mostly very similar.
For example, in prisons in almost all countries, prisoners who hurt children are the lowest in status and are despised by everyone. The second is sexual assault.
Sympathy for the weak is the same nature of human beings. This is not only brought about by society and morality, but also the result of human evolution for tens of millions of years. There is no animal that pays more attention to its cubs than humans. This is also one of the reasons why humans can get to where we are today.
So this guy named Louis was unlucky. He was charged with this crime and naturally had to be taught a lesson.
This guy has been in for three days and has been beaten more than a dozen times. Fortunately, Louis is not a rookie. He seems to be an old hand who has been in the palace many times. He reacts quickly and is experienced. He decisively pretends to be dead to protect his vitals, so he is not seriously injured. Even so, Louis is disheveled, disheveled, and has sporadic blood on his body. He looks like a homeless person.
"Bring him out, I want to ask him."
Soon, Louis was taken to the interrogation room of the prison.
In response, Louis burst into tears. He kept shouting injustice, emphasizing that he did not kidnap, let alone sexually assault! Of course, this is also a normal situation. Some suspects will be honest when they are caught, and it is normal not to admit it.
"Tell me, where did you kidnap that girl from?"
Louis shook his head quickly and swore to the sky: "God is my witness, I really didn't kidnap her. A man passed by me and said he gave her to me, so she followed me home."
It was the first time that Kai heard such a fresh and unconventional statement: "So, you accepted it? A stranger suddenly "gave" a girl from a rich family and asked her to go home with you, and you were not surprised at all?"
Louis was stunned, thought for a moment, and was a little confused: "Yes, why... I..."
He seemed to have just thought of this question, and he didn't know why: "I... I don't know, as soon as the man spoke, I did this, is there any problem with this?"
Kai shook his head. Although according to Harley, the person who controlled Hope had the ability to hypnotize others, but hypnotizing others with just one sentence, isn't it a bit exaggerated?
"What does that man look like? What are his characteristics?"
Louis' eyes showed a look of reminiscence: "He is a little thin. How do I describe his appearance? He is not a good person at first glance. He is wearing a very expensive handmade suit. There seems to be nothing special about him."
"When he speaks, can you tell where his accent is?"
"Well... his accent is weird, and I can't tell where it is... I always feel a little weird. Oh, by the way, he always speaks in a weird and superior tone."
Kai nodded, which is also a clue.
"Then you didn't touch that girl?"
Louis looked at Kai in embarrassment, and he said: "This detective... I really didn't mean to do it. She took the initiative. We are all men. If such a beautiful girl throws herself at you... will you refuse?"
"Then what's the matter with her injuries?" Hope has many injuries on his body, some of which are new, which is definitely related to this bastard.
"This...she asked for it, I thought she liked this way...besides, she had so many injuries, it would be hard for me not to misunderstand, right?" Louis really felt that he was wronged, and he didn't understand why it turned out like this.
Originally they had a good time, they had been playing for several days, and even invited many friends, although it was charged. But...it was consensual, okay! Who would have thought that suddenly the woman ran away like crazy, and he went to chase her, and happened to be met by the police...
This is a scumbag.
Hope's aunt is an Oscar-winning actress and a famous beauty in Hollywood. Her appearance is not bad. In addition, her family is rich, she is very popular, and her temperament and grooming are above the standard. Such a girl lives in the home of a gangster like Louis. There is no need to think about what will happen. But it's different when Louis goes to such extreme lengths.
There's nothing wrong with this guy.
So Kai threw the guy back into prison and blessed him with a spell that he rarely used.
Charm!
This technique has no special ability, it just makes it more tender and delicious... I hope he can bear it!
…
"Mrs. Gao has urged us several times. Let us fulfill our duties among allies." James hurried to Kingpin's secluded farm estate and brought up the topic again. "Mrs. Gao seems to be really anxious this time, saying that if we don't take action, the agreement between us will be invalid."
Kingpin was sitting on the lakeside fishing, and he seemed very calm about James's anxiety. After all, from Jin Bin's point of view, a weakened Hand and would be what he wants to see. Although they are indeed allies, Jin does not want his allies to be too powerful.
His purpose is simple, that is, to clean up the New York underground world and eliminate all those who threaten his rule. But there is a problem. During the elimination process, his allies may take advantage of his opportunity to clear out his opponents and occupy the power of those targets. This will make his allies a lot stronger!
If this continues, when he returns to New York, he will face a powerful ally! Although the Hand and the Union promised not to have any thoughts about New York's underground dominance, the problem is that when they grow to a certain extent, they themselves threaten his hegemony, not to mention... isn't the agreement meant to be broken? If Kingpin really believed it all, he would not be alive today.
So he was happy to see what happened to Shou Hehui.
These days, the Shouhe Association is really busy. Various forces are taking turns to strangle them, and countless businesses have been lost. Even their own money laundering institutions have been destroyed. Those businesses that appear to be formal and legal businesses are actually not so formal. They now had to rely on the channels of Leland Owsley and Kingpin to launder the money. Of course, if we continue, Handhehui will not need to launder money, because they will not make any money at all.
Kingpin had been watching the show before, and he had not made any move when his opponent Hehui asked for help.
However, it seems the time is now.
"Is Kilgrave here?"
"Well, I arrived in New York very early." James replied immediately. As the manager of Jinpin's business, he cares more about the existence of Handhehui than Jinpin. After all, it is one of their big suppliers, and Jinbin Group has to cooperate with Handhehui in many aspects. Because Handhehui is definitely worthy of the title of Son of Japan in terms of profit sharing.
"Let him do his thing."
At this stage, the Shouhehui's attacks on the officialdom are basically equal to death. They dare not make any moves. Once they do, they will definitely be caught and beaten to death, and the losses will be even greater. The only thing they can save is the underworld business. That thing is not that easy to find.
As long as there is no problem with this cash flow, no matter how much losses you suffer, you can make up for it.
But recently, the police and vigilantes have not relaxed their crackdown on the Handicap Association, which has seriously affected the Handicap Association's income. Many of the powers of the Hand and the Union cannot be used at will at this time, so they need Kingpin, an ally, to step forward.
According to their long-standing agreement, Kingpin was originally responsible for some of their 'security' issues in New York!
They need Kingpin to deal with those pesky vigilantes!
"Understood." James nodded.
"By the way, don't mess with that police chief!" Kingpin emphasized: "That policeman is still useful! Let Kilgrave be careful and don't go too far, otherwise... I will make him himself, he is proud of That little trick is so ridiculous to me!"
"I will notify him." Although James said this, he was still beating in his heart.
If he had to choose a guy he said he knew had the worst personality, he would definitely choose Kilgrave!
His arrogance and arrogance were unbearable.
If it weren't for this, Kingpin wouldn't even see this guy. For someone as strong-willed as Kingpin, Kilgrave's so-called ability to control others was simply not possible. Of course, there is no such thing as not daring to see him, but because Kingpin is afraid that he can't help but kill him!
James also knew that his ability to intimidate Kilgrave was almost non-existent. If Kingpin hadn't been standing behind him, this guy might have overtaken James too.
Now I can only pray that this guy will listen to Jin Bin's warning.
