Kartikeye waved goodbye to the flying cavalry who specially sent him from the Gandaraja to the ground, took a look at the bottle of Sumo medicine for a while, opened the bottle and gulped it down.

a bit sweet.

It is a bit different from the "bitter" taste as imagined.

Is it because the gods in the heavens are very picky about medicines and don't take bitter ones, or...

Kartikeye was speechless for two seconds.

He thinks that the pharmacists of the Sumo tribe may have adjusted the taste more in consideration that this is a medicine for "16-year-old children".

Forget it, those are irrelevant details, anyway, he is a 16-year-old in a large group of hundreds of thousand-year-old protoss, he can only be regarded as a "child", thank God if he is not counted as a "baby", look at Ai Ran King Ming's style of being carried around by his personal maid everywhere, if King Ashura forcibly assigned such a role, he would really go crazy.

In order to avoid revealing his identity, before leaving Gandharaja, King Gandapo specially asked a maid to help Kartikeye remove the pile of gold, silver and jewels on his body, and it was a bit awkward when he wanted to change clothes Now, the costumes of the Gandharvas are not the same as those of the Asuras. When King Gandharvas was still hesitating whether to find the old clothes of Ji Guotian, Kartikeye directly turned them into black clothes similar to the past with flames. Kimono, King Gandapo hesitated to speak, and did not dissuade him, so he saw him off.

The Sumo medicine took effect very quickly, and Kartikeye felt a little cold touch around his eye sockets. He subconsciously stretched out his hand to cover it, and then remembered to find a place to look at the current situation, just in front of him. There was a river not far away. He walked over and knelt down by the river. When he saw the reflection on the water, he was silent for a moment.

Speaking of which, he should be the same as when he was "still a human being", with black hair, black eyes, and black clothes, but the reflection on the water gave him a strange feeling.Before, he could attribute the difference between the people he saw in the mirror to eye color and clothing, but now he has no excuses.

The hair is still black, but it is a bit longer than before, but it was carefully combed into a bun by the maid of the Gandharva tribe, so that the part hanging down did not exceed the waist, and the golden ornaments on the hair were removed. Yes, but the hair itself seems to be luminous, and it is more shiny than when the Lord of the Underworld descended.

The black eyes that he hadn't seen for a long time actually made him feel dazed for a moment - the reason for the daze was that he instinctively felt that the color was wrong and should be more bright and shining.

I don't know where the change happened, the same facial features brought a completely different impression from the past.

Kartikeye sighed softly.

Perhaps, in fact, he knew the origin of this change and difference.

The temperament that once belonged to the part of "Ise's God Child" disappeared, and the efforts that Ise Jingu put on him in the past to create "Shining Kyohime" all failed.Calmness, introversion, introspection, compassion, and piety, these qualities that a "son of God" should have have been shaken from the bottom, so they can no longer be displayed outside.

The once-stable balance disappeared, as if his spiritual power no longer had a bit of "water" quality, and the "yin" end disappeared completely, leaving only pure "fire".

If he had this expression now, even if he changed into Miko's costume again, he would probably only be regarded as a pervert in women's clothing, and no one would think that he was once the "Miko of Ise".

Probably the only thing similar to the past is the clothes.

But it was precisely because of this that he wanted to be silent even more.

Things are right and wrong?

No, it's even more embarrassing than that.

Kartikeye disturbed the water with his hand, making a gesture of washing his hands by the river.

"Hello! People over there, hello!"

Kartikeye quickly turned around, subconsciously wanting to hold the knife, and pressed his hand on the handle of Bai Ye's knife before realizing that the person who came was just a young man with plain clothes, and the only thing on his body that could be called a weapon was probably the throwing spear on his back.He raised his hand and waved it indistinctly, as if he wanted to say hello from the beginning.

"Hello?"

The young man ran over quickly, jumped over the big rocks on the ground, ran to the river and stopped suddenly, looked at the stranger carefully, and said hesitantly: "Are you from... Which Protoss?" ?”

Kartikeye smiled and asked, "Am I like a god?"

"Well, it doesn't look like much, but you are too good-looking, only the protoss can be so good-looking..."

The boy muttered a few words, and finally he nodded his head and came to a conclusion.

"Those protoss don't have time to come here, it shouldn't be."

With his keen sense of hearing, Kartikeye heard all the boy's self-talk, and couldn't help laughing.

"My ancestors have a little bit of God's blood. Hello, I'm Karl."

"Well, it would be more special if there is a mixed race of gods."

The boy suddenly realized, and waved to Kartikeye with a smile.

"Carl. I'm Eagle."

"Eagle?" Kartikeye repeated, pointing to the sky, "This name...does it mean that you can fly in the sky like an eagle?"

Ying shook his head and explained: "When our family names things, we all name them by referring to things. My father said that when I was born, a huge Garuda happened to fly in the sky, but how can the sacred objects of the Garuda tribe be used casually?" Come and name me, and then my name became Eagle. How about you, Carl? What does your name mean?"

Kartikeye was taken aback for a moment.

If it was the full name, King Asura had said that it was the name of the legendary God of War.

"...It has no special meaning, it's just used as a title."

"That's right, names are meant to be called!"

Eagle nodded approvingly.

"Karl just came here? Our tribe's camp is not far ahead. Would you like to come and see Karl? Although it's not as lively as the tribes that can live in the cities in the sky, a harvest festival is about to be held recently. When guests come, the patriarch must be very happy."

Kartikeye came here for this purpose, and agreed without hesitation.

"Okay!"

Ying got the consent of the other party, and happily reached out and patted his arm, hooked his shoulders, and led him to the tribal camp.

"Great! Let's go, I can bring back such a beautiful guest, I will definitely be praised this time!"

Kartikeye couldn't laugh or cry.

"Eagle, the appearance of the guest...does it matter?"

"You people don't care if you look good!"

Maybe it's because the two of them have changed from "strangers" to "acquaintances", Ying's cautious attitude at the beginning disappeared, and he complained carelessly.

"Who doesn't know that the Protoss likes good-looking people the most. Even if they come to the ground to choose people who can take them to their own cities, they will give priority to choosing good-looking people. Even if human tribes fight, good-looking captives can live longer. How many people I just hope that there will be a well-known beauty in my family, so that the whole family will be taken to live a good life. The tradition of our family’s Harvest Festival is to hold carnivals for seven days and seven nights in a row. 'God's will', the more honorable the guest's status and the better-looking appearance, the more it indicates that next year there will be good weather and a good harvest. Karl, you came at the right time!"

"……My pleasure."

Kartikeye never dreamed that one day he would be able to live a life of "scanning his face".

He thought that the habit of pursuing beauty in the heavens was only among the gods, but he didn't expect that this influence was far from limited to Shanjian City. The gods were much better than the humans, so the preferences of the gods would directly affect the preferences of the humans. It is clear that there will be no powerful people among human beings. After all, there are differences in blood, but it is still possible for some beauties to emerge among human beings.

No wonder he didn't see a single unattractive person in Shanjian City and Qiandaraja. It turned out that they were bred through beauty contests from generation to generation...

"You're welcome! I don't think there will be anyone better looking than Carl this year!"

The eagle became more and more enthusiastic, "The most honored guest who will go with the patriarch to offer sacrifices to the gods will definitely be Karl! I can also go up with me! Ah--that's great! I have wanted to preside over the ceremony since I was a child , although it is not possible now, but I did not expect that I would have the opportunity to walk up to the altar, it is so right for me to come out today! Karl, you are my lucky star!"

Kartikeye was pushed forward by a boy who was a little taller than himself with his shoulders on his shoulders. It was a rare experience for him, and he was not unhappy, but felt a little novel.

"What do you mean by offering sacrifices to the gods?"

Only then did Ying let go of his hand, and began to count with his fingers.

"It's a tradition in our clan. If there is a good harvest that year, we will hold a ceremony to thank the gods, and offer the earliest harvested ears of wheat and the fattest lambs to the gods. Only the patriarch and the most honored guests can put a knife on the lamb's neck. And the clansman who invited the most distinguished guests can hold the ears of wheat, and the three of them will deliver the sacrifice to the altar together, and the others can't approach the altar at all, they can only watch from afar!"

When the boy said this, he danced happily.

"I thought I would only be able to touch the altar when I became the patriarch. I wanted to go up in my dreams-I didn't expect that my dream would come true this year!"

Infected by the boy's pure joy, Kartikeye laughed along with it, but he still poured a little cold water on it.

"However, I may not be the 'most honored guest'."

Ying turned his head and said solemnly: "We are not a big family attached to the gods. If we have such distinguished guests, no one will look better than Karl! Ah, I can't wait to announce this year's lucky winner to the old man. It's me!"

Kartikeye saw that Ying started to fall into the frenzy of "I can go to the altar" before he could say three words, smiled, and followed behind him, and also had some expectations for this "Harvest Festival".

The "not far" that the eagle said was indeed not far, and the two of them could see the flags stationed by the tribe within less than two miles.

Under normal circumstances, the military camps of the gods in the heavens will display banners. If the place where the gods live together is not in the floating city in the sky but on the ground, then a flag symbolizing the clan will also be displayed on the border. This habit has been learned by the human race. The human race was not bold enough to copy the totem emblems of different god races, and those who claimed to have wisdom in the tribe used their brains to set emblems for their tribes.

The flag used by this tribe of eagles shows a somewhat abstract flame.

If he hadn't asked Ying, Kartikeye must have thought that it was a mess of electric wool, with stiff lines.

"Our family worships fire, so we use flames as a mark. But there are too many tribes who worship fire, and our family was separated too late, and those beautiful graphics have been used up."

Eagle explained why the emblem of his clan would look like this.

Kartikeye stood under the flagpole and looked up at the flag above. Only then did he realize that the material of the flag was very close to the material used by the Protoss, and it was not at the same level as the fabric on the eagle's body.

Because a family worships flames, is this a belief?

After walking for a while, the eagle found that the guests he had brought were still under the flag. He waved and shouted: "Carl, come here! I will take you to see the patriarch!"

"Ok."

Kartikeye responded, and before he moved, he found that the people who were busy preparing for the ceremony just now were staring at him in unison.

Hey?

Is there anything wrong?
