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 is still a slave and does 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.
Although everything here seems strange.
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 patriarch Shenlong has never seen the light of day. 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.
And the gods of the 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.
Is it possible that the gods that all the priests believe in really exist?
Is it possible that those who prayed to the statue 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, why are you back?”
The slaves were still squatting on the ground drinking gruel, and were shocked when they saw Norman walking back carelessly. .
Especially Brown, who only went to report it in the morning, was even more trembling, thinking that he had been deceived.
Other than 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 will be 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 the work."
"More specifically, I will tell Norman in the afternoon and it will be up to him. Notice to you.”
What?
Not only is 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 a fucking joke?
Brown couldn't help but cursed in his heart, but at the same time, he suddenly looked at Norman.
Norman, who has become the captain, has the right to punish. If this were targeted at him, wouldn't everything be over?
Fortunately, Norman did not pay attention to him at this moment, but looked at all the slaves.
“The patriarch trusts me and entrusts me with such an important matter to complete. Norman will definitely live up to this trust! Please also rest assured that as long as he can complete his daily work, Norman will not use lame methods. Making excuses to embarrass you will only help you get the rewards you deserve."
The talented Norman promised, his chest pounding.
And then, he also used actions to prove that what he said was true.
Throughout the morning, the slaves worked extremely seriously, 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 cut his hair down, 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 is willing to risk it all.
Instead of living in boundless fear, it is better to take 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 gently and pulled him to kneel down at the temple of yesterday.
It is 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."
"Yes."
"If it were yesterday, I would definitely try my best to retaliate against you and make you pay for your betrayal."
Norman clasped his hands together and kowtowed gently, " But today, I want to thank you."
"Huh?"
"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 that it was God. The god told the patriarch in a dream that Brooks Norman was a very bold man. Human, he is different from other slaves, he is likely to bring hope to the tribe, and he needs to be rewarded by the tribe leader. "What?" Brown was dumbfounded.
God?
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.
Does God have a name?
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
"Thomas, haste makes waste. You have 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.
Since he was seriously injured by Zhang Tai that day, Thomas has never stopped practicing crazily.
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 then."
Thomas is not firm in many things, but only in practice. Move forward wholeheartedly.
Especially now, when it is impossible to obtain new magical skills and improve combat capabilities.
All he can do is to become familiar with the physical fitness of the fourth-level priest as much as possible and find ways to make up for it with close combat.
“You are right, but you still need to rest when you should.”
Somo narrowed his eyes and yawned.
"I haven't been to the surrounding tribes since I became the leader of the clan. Why don't you accompany me for a walk today?"
"Oh?"
When Thomas heard this, He didn't refuse, but raised his eyebrows with slight interest.
Speaking of which, this is the first time Sumo has proposed visiting surrounding tribes since he became the clan leader.
But then he thought about what happened in the tribe in recent days, and he shuddered quickly, pointed in the direction of the shrine and said:
“Chief, you don’t want to kill the giant. Bring it to the surrounding tribes?”
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. No."
Sumo smiled and shook his head. He was still a little worried.
Relying on the spread of the faith of the Stone God, 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 Rock God' to other tribes.
Even the use of force as a deterrent will not work.
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.”
Suma plans to save the country in a curved way.
Since the faith cannot be spread to the other tribe, then bring people to the Fire Fist tribe to spread it.
The addition of sixty fanatic believers has expanded the area of the 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 fanatic 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 lend five people to each family. I believe they won't refuse."
Sumo 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 broken.
Therefore, I 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.
Suma'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.
"Chief Somo, if you still need it, you are welcome to come back at any time."
The Fire Fist Tribe's borrowing of people can help 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, with no place to work at all.
Of course, all those being lent out are slaves, and the residents of this tribe still have no intention of going to other tribes.
Evening.
It was dark.
With these slaves, Sumo returned to the tribe with satisfaction and began a new round of attack.
Maybe it’s because the followers of the ‘Big Rock God’ have already formed a large scale among the slave groups, or maybe the treatment of the Fire Fist tribe is significantly better than that of these people’s previous tribes.
The spread of faith this time was surprisingly easy.
Half of the new slaves believed in the existence of the Stone God after only working for two days.
Coupled with the fact that the old residents were also consolidating their beliefs, the one hundred people required for the mission were finally on the verge of being assembled.
All it takes is the final touch to complete it!
New World.
East.
The Palace of Foreign Races Gathering.
"Damn it, didn't you say it's impossible for Somo to make a comeback? How come he's still alive and well?"
As the latest gambling ranking list was released, Yin Yuan was furious.
On the strength list.
More and more humans have acquired magical talents, and they are gradually approaching the limit of one thousand people that can be recorded on the list.
A total of 876 people have obtained the talent of divine arts and have the qualifications to practice divine arts.
Although I was relieved not to see Somo's name here, as soon as I scrolled to the next tribe list, Somo's name was clearly reflected at the top.
Fire Fist Tribe, 121 people.
Including: 7 ordinary believers, 16 devout believers, 97 fanatical believers, and 1 loyal believer.
This sudden development is amazing.
In particular, the number of fanatical believers 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 couldn't accept the most was the last belief list.
"The Stone God, damn it, he actually founded the faith one step earlier than us."
Yin Yuan cannot accept this result.
It has been a month since the gambling battle started. Even though the aliens and humans are now fighting a war on the front line, the aliens have been winning consecutive battles and attacking cities everywhere.
But as long as this bet cannot be won, 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, being so anxious is not your style."
The human in the shadow finally spoke up, but he was still extremely confident when he spoke.
“Besides choosing to escape at the beginning, if Sumo wants to break the situation violently, there are only two ways to go.”
"First, look for opportunities to gain magical talents, and rely on hard power to break the obstacles we have set up."
"Second, avoid direct conflicts, and use a method rooted in faith to pursue the path to the gods."
After hearing this, Yin Yuan became even more angry.
“Yes, he found it, he found a way to break the situation!”
The path of the gods is the key to truly winning the battle of faith, and it is also what he least wants to see. result.
Soma can be faster than the alien race, which is completely beyond the plan.
"Just because you've found it doesn't mean you can get through it."
The voice in the dark sounded meaningful.
“He can pull up a Su clan with tens of millions of people out of thin air in the wasteland. How could we not be wary of his performance in the gambling world.”
“Could it be that Do you still have any backup plans?" Yin Yuan couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this.
"Of course, you won't have forgotten the snow bandit we arranged, right?"
The human voice finally couldn't help laughing, "When he finally got the conditions to open the path to the gods, The endless snow bandits will immediately make him realize how stupid it is to choose this path!"
