The interior of Gorgaron Crater was a verdant forest. The steep mountains and cliffs blocked the water vapor and shrouded the place all year round, making it always foggy.
The humid air brought a good environment for the growth of plants and animals here. From time to time, there would be a burst of pleasant or strange sounds in the forest. The active magical beasts made this place a very dangerous forbidden zone.
But the shamans used some unknown method to turn this place into their own backyard. When passing through the territory of the magical beasts, they would not be attacked at all.
"I think they must have taken those guys as their own kind."
Mongol Kahn picked his ear and said disdainfully, "With their way of doing things, it's not strange for them to be taken as real magical beasts."
"Although you're an Orc, you're really ruthless with your words."
"We're Orcs, not magical beasts."
Mongol Kahn corrected Tang En, "Besides, we didn't choose to look like this. It's God of Fire, Kalomariff, who created us. We don't feel strange about it. Rather, we feel awkward looking at you humans. It's hard to tell one from the other without any special features."
"Most Orcs don't look much different from humans, like Ai," Vanilla interjected.
"The Kor women are a special case. Rather than saying that they don't have any special features, it's better to say that their big breasts are a special feature!"
Ai, who was innocently implicated, immediately blushed. She subconsciously hugged her chest to avoid Tang En's gaze.
Tang En withdrew his gaze and said, "Are you jealous?"
"Of course not! What's so good about having big breasts? "
Vanilla said, a little annoyed. "Not only will it be inconvenient to move around when running, but it will also affect the effect of exercise. Also, it's easy to get sore in the shoulders. I'm not jealous!"
"I'll believe you for now. Wait, don't talk to me. I think I've found a clue."
Tang En suddenly waved his hand and focused all his attention on the Arcane Eye in the distance.
Because they were too few and it was too dangerous, Tang En and the others landed in the forest and directly turned the crown of a big tree into a temporary base. Then Tang En released an Arcane Eye to scout ahead.
In this environment, the small Arcane Eye was very well hidden and could observe the enemy from the dark.
At this moment, by the side of the Double Moon Lake, on the empty land beside the wooden house that was covered in moss, a large number of shamans had gathered. They were surrounding the bonfire and partying to their hearts' content. Occasionally, they could be seen kneeling towards the bonfire and the pink moon in the sky.
Through the shared image, Angus and the others also saw the situation in front of them. He was a little confused and said, "I can understand worshipping the fire, but why are they worshipping the moon?"
"Moon Worship Demonic Sect …"
Tang En complained casually. Then, his eyes widened. "There's movement!"
At this moment, the moon Lolita was hanging in the middle of the sky. At this moment, the huge rock in the middle of the lake started to shake. The water in the Twin Moons Lake started to churn and the sound of the water getting louder and louder.
All the Shamans gathered by the lake piously prostrated themselves against the huge rock, their heads touching the ground and not moving at all.
"What's the situation? How could that rock move? Could it be a magical beast? "
"No! That wasn't a magical beast! That was — "
Tang En widened his eyes. The closer the Arcane Eye was to the lakeside, the bigger his eyes widened. Although the sky was very dark, under the pink moonlight, he could still vaguely see the details of the huge rock in the middle of the lake.
Even though it was covered in moss, it could not hide the strange structure …
F * ck you!
That was not a huge rock!
That was a f * cking crashed spaceship! F * ck!
At this moment, the side of the crashed spaceship suddenly lit up and a holographic image appeared in the sky. A goblin wearing a spacesuit was anxiously saying something in the ancient goblin language. He wanted to convey something but the image shook violently. They could see that the spaceship was burning outside the window. The spaceship must have lost control. Soon, with a loud boom, the image disappeared completely.
The Shamans by the lakeside continued to prostrate themselves, not daring to get up.
Vanilla and the rest were stunned. "What was that just now?"
That was a message left by the prehistoric civilization!
At this moment, an exit opened in the crashed spaceship. An orc wearing a skeleton mask walked out and climbed to the tail of the spaceship, which was the highest point in the lake. He raised his arms and roared loudly. The indistinct orc language gave Tang En a lot of translation difficulties, but fortunately, Xiao Ai was a purebred orc.
"He said that the time is approaching. We must prepare for the baptism of the Chosen One. We need more companions and sacrifices."
"Looks like he's the Bishop of the Shamans, Afala Earthwalker."
Tang En was puzzled. "But don't they worship the natural phenomena of earth, water, fire, and wind? They don't believe in gods or evil gods. What's the use of sacrifices? "
"Who knows?"
Angus pondered for a moment and suddenly said, "Maybe the sacrifices have no practical meaning and are just to increase the sense of mystery and strengthen his ruling position?"
"Maybe," Xiao Ai said weakly.
Xiao Ai said weakly, "He asked the branch leaders to report the situation of the believers. I can't hear the voices of the people around, so I can't …"
"I'll get closer."
Tang En controlled the Arcane Eye to float into the lake from the side.
"Okay, the person in charge said that he has gained more than forty new believers in the past year. The guy in the mask above seems to be very angry … Ah!"
Xiao Ai exclaimed. Tang En immediately covered her mouth and stared at the image in the Arcane Eye, his heart filled with shock.
Afala was probably dissatisfied with the work of his follower. He took out a big gun from his back and shot a beam of light from the big gun, blowing the unlucky guy into ashes!
Damn it!
A high-energy beam gun!
A Shaman wearing a skeleton mask who worshipped natural phenomena took out a high-energy beam gun and blew his follower into ashes. Who could understand Tang En's feelings at this moment?
What happened to the high-magic otherworld?
Even a high-energy beam gun was brought out. This scene was becoming more and more strange!
"What a powerful weapon!"
Angus exclaimed. "It can burn a person to ashes in an instant!"
How could it not be powerful?! That was the crystallization of ancient gnome technology!
Tang En licked his lips and stared at the high-energy beam gun. If he could get his hands on it, would Klotto and the others be able to recover any useful technology from it?
But after thinking about it carefully, Tang En shook his head again.
He knew that was unrealistic.
It was like you could give a primitive man a gun and teach him how to use it, but you would never be able to teach him how to make a gun. The gap in technology was too big.
The ancient civilization had been destroyed and reborn, then encountered the rise of the magic civilization and the invasion of the Chaos army. They had yet to recover to their original technological level, so how could they have any hope of understanding the principle of the high-energy beam gun?
But this gun and the crashed spaceship were already in Tang En's hands.
Not to mention whether it could be repaired and fly, just the technical knowledge contained in it was already priceless. If he let Klotto and the others slowly study it, it might even give him a surprise.
If this had happened on Earth, just fighting over this crashed spaceship would probably have caused a world war …
Next, the Shaman priests reported the situation one by one. After they finished, Bishop Afala began to speak again.
"… He's encouraging those guys, making them believe that there are no gods in this world. He's teaching them to use the cruelest means to deal with those who don't want to submit to the Shamans …"
Xiao Ai said with a look of horror, "He said, he said that anyone who doesn't submit to the Shamans, anyone who believes in gods, is a heretic and will be burned to ashes … He also said, he said that he's going to attack Bul-Kathos and liberate the entire Ryan Empire …"
Tang En's expression was quite strange. If these words were said on Earth, then he would be a devout believer of the Great Scientific Faith. But he was in Prandal, damn it, there really are gods in this world!
You're promoting atheism in a world where gods exist, and you're even promoting civilization to return to its original state and eating the corpses of your own kind. What are you trying to do? Do you want to return to a primitive society?!
"Attack Bul-Kathos?"
Mongol Kahn sneered. "Sure enough, they're a bunch of lunatics … Their brains are too stupid, they don't understand what true power is."
Not to mention the fact that the legendary orc hero Razortooth, Bloodmane, Bloody Battleaxe could easily annihilate them all by himself, just the 100,000 combat strength of the regular army was enough to crush all the Shaman believers.
The reason why the Shamans were still alive was that their members were too scattered, and the Ryan Empire hadn't recovered yet, so they didn't want to fight them seriously. If they really angered Testero, the Shamans would have disappeared long ago.
"We still need to be careful," Ursa said.
"Don't forget that the core members of the Shamans are all spellcasters, and they're very dangerous in group battles."
"They won't have that chance."
Tang En suddenly said, "I found Coco!"
While Afala was talking, Tang En controlled the Arcane Eye to sneak into the interior of the crashed spaceship. Not long after, he saw the haggard black-haired cat-eared girl locked in a room.
Vanilla shuddered and instantly rushed to Tang En's side, desperately grabbing his neck. "Where is she?! Is she still safe?! "
"Looks like she's fine. Here, see for yourself."
After a year, seeing his sister again, Vanilla was so excited that he began to cry.
"Vanilla."
Tang En looked at Coco's long black hair in the image, then looked at Vanilla's long pink hair, and suddenly asked, "Are you sure you're twins?"
