Rebirth of the Viking King

After several days of training, Loki's body has fully recovered. Sitting opposite him at this time was a strong Slavic man with a silver beard. He was wearing a pigskin coat commonly worn by Viking slave laborers, and his bare arms were covered with scars from knives and axes.

Loki was sitting in the position of the lord of Hanshui Village. Sophie lay beside his legs and looked at the Slavic slave worker in front of her with her big, ignorant eyes. She is Loki's nominal adopted daughter and the heir to Hanshui Village. According to Viking rules, she needs to listen while Loki handles government affairs.

Even if you can't hear, you still have to listen.

Seeing the Lord, the strong Slavic man named "Oleg Turav" subconsciously wanted to kneel down. However, Wenzov, who walked into the hall with him next to him, held his arm firmly.

This is the rule in Hanshui Village. Men do not kneel to anyone except their parents.

Look closely at his cheeks. Loki saw three tattoos of different shapes. This Slav, who is about forty years old, has actually changed three owners from Wolf Castle, the main city of Wolf Creek, to Frost and Rain Castle, and then to Foggy Duck Town.

Generally speaking, the life span of a Slavic slave laborer is between 3 and 5 years. Because no matter what disaster happens in the village or town, slaves are the first consumables to be pushed out.

But Oleg, a slave, had three masters and still survived. This in itself is quite extraordinary.

What is even more extraordinary is that in the Hanshui Village defense battle a month ago, he participated in the last battle as a slave in Wuya Town and actually withstood the attack of the Blood Pigeon Town cavalry!

More than a hundred slaves entered the battlefield, and only three survived.

Oleg is one of them.

"Do you have something to talk to me about?" Loki stood up and pulled out a chair for the tall, thin Slav with a haggard appearance to sit down.

Oleg's eyes averted. Slavic slaves never saw people of the lord's level in their daily lives. Their direct superiors were the women and children who stayed in the village. Normally, even if a Viking warrior carrying a big ax passes by, they have to kneel down and kowtow.

Loki pushed over two glasses of ale brewed from malt by his tribe, and Oleg hesitantly picked up the glass. After two glasses of wine, a blush appeared on his pale cheeks.

Alcohol is a delicacy that Slavic slaves cannot have access to. Oleg, who has not tasted alcohol for more than 20 years, finally mustered up the courage to say his first words after entering the castle in Viking with a strong Slavic accent. sentence.

"Your Excellency, I am the Chosen One of the 'Hahoran Temple' and the 'Eagle Path'."

"For many years, I have been trying to hide my identity because I know that once I reveal my identity, I will be killed by Viking warriors immediately! No one can trust a chosen alien next to his wife and children."

"But a month ago, when I came to Hanshui Village, I felt that it was different from other towns. During the battle in the village, I saw the monks of the Holy Bishop wielding giant swords burning with flames. In the past few days, I They were also seen maintaining order in the village."

"After arriving in Hanshui Village, we were not treated as slaves, but were fairly and fairly distributed with shelter and food. My previous mistress tried to whip me, but I didn't expect that she was punished by the Holy Bishop's precepts."

Speaking of this, the tall Slavic warrior's curved lower back gradually straightened up. The injustices and spiritual baggage he has endured for many years are gradually being thrown away, and his weak tone sounds more powerful.

"I have been thinking, if Hanshui Village is a village that allows more faiths to exist, then will the 'Hahoran Temple' that my people believe in also have the possibility of survival again?"

After speaking, he slowly took out an ancient wooden statue from his pigskin coat. Place it in front of Loki. This thing is about 1 foot tall and 10 centimeters wide. The ancient wood is carved in the shape of an eagle. Judging from the appearance alone, it has a strong atmosphere of time.

His intuition told him that the dilapidated wooden statue in Oleg's hand should be an object with a very long history.

Loki narrowed his eyes.

The Slavs are a rather mysterious group of people. The organizational structure of the Vikings can already be called "loose", but these Slavs are obviously more loose.

The entire low-temperature zone in northern Asia is all the land of the Slavs, and their territory is more than ten times larger than the Vikings' Scandinavia. In this extremely wide wilderness, based on the experience of successive Viking lords' eastward journeys, the Slavs have at least twenty countries and thousands of tribes with their own factions.

There are also great differences in beliefs among these countries and tribes.

The deity ‘Princess Hahoran’ enshrined in the Hahoran Temple is not a human being, but a multi-headed snake from ancient times. It has nine heads and a body similar to the dinosaur Liangosaurus, but it also has two pairs of wings on its back.

According to Ahai's records, the existence of this thing can even be traced back to the "War of the Gods" period. In other words, this is a terrifying monster that lived in the same era as the god Odin.

In terms of the positioning of gods, they belong to the old gods. (The gods who were worshiped on a large scale in the last round of human civilization)

The Hallhoran Temple grants Slavs five upgrade paths: giant bear, greedy wolf, elk, eagle and mammoth.

Different from "drinking the magic potion" in the Hall of Valor and the preaching of the Holy Bishop monks, the Slavs' upgrade path starts with hunting.

They need to go into the dark snowy mountains to capture the beasts. The beasts are captured, tied up and sent to the Hahoran Temple. They need to live with the beasts all day long and gain the approval of the beasts before they can get the start of the upgrade path.

During this period of time, 90% of the Slavic warriors would be unable to resist the attacks of beasts and die.

Loki had heard of the ancient Slavic legends of "animal warriors", but he did not expect that these rumors turned out to be true. Thinking back to the last life, in various strange videos, you can often see Slavs fighting black bears with bare hands, wrestling with lions and cheetahs, etc.

It turns out that it all comes from here.

There is no doubt that the Hahoran Temple is a more perverted belief than the Hall of Valor. The Storm Acolyte in the Hall of Valor gave the potion, and even the sea giant path with the lowest survival rate has a 30% chance of survival.

And this terrible faith that requires mortals to fight giant bears, eagles, and even greedy wolves and mammoths with bare hands for several days until these beasts lose their temper and are tamed has a survival rate of only 10%.

But this does not mean that Loki is not interested in this old god named "Princess Hahoran".

Among the five towns in the river valley, Storm's End is the most prosperous. Blood Pigeon Town has a vast salt field, and Mistduck Town is located in the mountains. It relies on a large number of coniferous forests to extract pine oil and make fuel. Yuemagang is the only way for herdsmen to graze.

Only Hanshui Village, which is surrounded by mountains and rivers, does not have any pillar industries.

There is only one place in Scandinavia that no one will attack at all, and that is the Hall of Valor among the mountains. It was the place where the Vikings gained their strength, and it is the sacred place in everyone's heart.

If Hanshui Village can become a multi-faith village, the Vikings who come to live here can enter various temples and pay prostitution to various gods of unknown origin. Hanshui Village can rely on these temples to attract more people. A powerful warrior who can quickly increase his own strength.

Especially the Slavs.

The most indispensable thing in Scandinavia is the Slavic slaves plundered across the sea. If there was a fair ground where they could live with dignity and even maintain their faith, I'm afraid there would be many Slavic slaves with tattoos on their faces crossing the mountains and coming to Loki's village.

As long as they are willing to come, Loki has ten thousand ways to keep them here.

Imagine a village where everyone is equal and governed by the "law" of a holy bishop. Those who are sick or injured are the chosen ones who have the "Holy Light" path of the Holy Bishop. When they go hunting, they are led by professional hunters from the Hahoran Temple. When they go out to plunder, there are sailors, sea monsters, sea giants, etc. from the Hall of Valor who are good at navigation and underwater. Protected by the Chosen Ones in battle.

While maintaining a stable life, all residents are free to choose their own beliefs. What village is more suitable to survive in these troubled times than Hanshui Village?

"My dear friend, I can consider your idea, but"

"In addition to the wooden statue in your arms, the construction of the Hahoran Temple must also require some other things? You might as well tell me what you need specifically and see if I have the ability to help you complete it."
