The Dragon That Devours the World

Chapter 53: Expansion dilemma

   (Let’s tell you a story. There used to be a piglet. People thought it was too young. It was ready to be fattened and killed. Then... the piglet starved to death.)

   Somewhere deep in the swamp forest.

   In the center of a clearing area, there is a solemn and solemn tall stone serpentine statue. Next to it is a variety of sacrifices made of melons and fruits and all kinds of meat. The delicious aroma is mouth-watering.

And beside the serpentine statue, a group of graceful young women draped in gorgeous feather coats made of bird feathers, and on their heads they wore headdresses made of long and beautiful colorful feathers, which were surrounding the snake. The shaped statue dances a solemn sacrificial dance, dancing gracefully while singing obscure sacrificial speeches.

   "C_HAI_EHYE, HRII_\'RON_\'AI_C_GNAIIH! (We gather together at this moment, believers call our Father!

   The tones of the sacrificial speech are solemn and abnormal, with a primitive and wild charm, accompanied by melodious and atmospheric dancing steps, which is more like a kind of art instead of sacrificing.

Young and beautiful girls raised their hands and feet, showing their piety and enthusiasm, and pleasing the gods they believed in. On their wrists, necks, and even behind their ears, they were able to faintly show their piety and enthusiasm. Seeing some small snake scales exists, it proves the fact that they are not pure human beings.

And along with their dance steps, there are also some girls with masks on their faces, holding various bone or wooden musical instruments in their hands, and they are sending out various low and melodious accompaniment music, adding to their sacrificial dance steps. More wonderful things on it.

   "Y_LLLL_GEB_STELL\'BSNA,, C_GNAIIH_GOKA_SYHA\'H_Y_NYTH... (we are here praying, implore our sleeping father, so that we can serve you as your servants forever...

   The long sacrificial speech will continue for a long time. The entire sacrificial ceremony is full of unspeakable joy and vitality. The unmodified original charm in the song and dance is simple and simple, with an inexplicable magical power that shocks the soul.

   The young girl surrounded the serpentine statue, singing and praising, the joyous sacrifice seemed to never stop.

   Not far away, a young maid looked anxiously at the ongoing ceremony in front of her, glancing at someone in the ceremony from time to time, obviously wanting to say something, but she didn't dare to interrupt at all.

No one dared to destroy the ritual. In this swamp kingdom that has existed for hundreds of years, the worship and belief in snakes is absolute. Anyone who dared to offend the sacrificial ritual has been thrown into the pit of ten thousand snakes. Bite the body and died.

   Until a long time later, with the abrupt cessation of the last sound of music, many beautiful girls stood up straight, then bowed their knees, and slowly stepped back, ending the whole ceremony.

   Until then, the young maid’s face showed joy, and she stepped on small steps and walked to the many happy girls with masks on their faces and musical instruments in their hands.

   "His Royal Highness Snake Girl."

   Facing one of the women, the young maid bowed her knees and said in a respectful voice.

   "What's the matter?"

Surrounded by the many slender and slender girls, the woman who looked like a star holding the moon gently took off the half-moon mask on her face, revealing a young and beautiful soft face, with her teeth open. Together, spit out a calm and pleasant voice.

   For hundreds of years, there is no trace of the passage of time on her face at all, and her appearance is the same as a hundred years ago.

No, it can't be said that it has no effect. At least, there is a little more awe-inspiring and majesty on her face. The erect snake pupils have a majestic atmosphere that makes people hard to see directly, and this majesty is based on it. Beautiful and moving, she added a touch of inviolable sacred breath.

   "It's outside the border..."

   The young maid didn't dare to look Snake Woman's eyes directly, and replied slowly.

In the entire swamp world and the Snake-Worship Kingdom with millions of people, not many people have dared to face the majesty of the master of the kingdom, the Snake Daughter. The power accumulated over the past hundred years is enough to make anyone love it. Panic.

   After listening, the snake girl's face showed a clear color, and then nodded.

"I know."

   This is enough to make half of the snake worship kingdom shake the border war issue, but she just said lightly, "I know."

   "But..."

   The maid's face showed eagerness.

   "You only need to tell the elders what I have said."

   The Snake Girl seemed to see her meaning, and said softly.

The maid did not dare to speak any more, so she had to retreat, leave this place of worship, and then relay her to the high-ranking elders in the kingdom, and beside her, the happy girls also retreated, blinking in the huge place of worship. Become empty, only the snake girl stayed.

   Snake Girl groaned for a long time, clenched her hands, closed her eyes, and muttered a prayer to a certain existence.

   "My father..."

  ……

   In the deep sea, the snake opened his eyes. Sen Leng's pupils were thinking quietly.

   "After all, is it because the area is too barren..."

   For more than a hundred years, Mona has worked hard, and has not compromised the implementation of what it has ordered, even over-fulfilled.

When it was hungry, it did not hesitate to bear the resentment and insults from the population of the swamp kingdom, and mobilized the rations of thousands of people for sacrifice to fill its stomach as much as possible. How much food does the snake eat? I'm afraid it goes without saying.

   If it weren’t for good that the big snake is a type that eats a meal for thousands of years, even if just filling the teeth is enough for him to support him for several years, I am afraid that filling the entire swamp kingdom into the big snake’s belly will not be enough to eat.

   In order to prevent it from getting too bored on the bottom of the sea, it is even more intimate to compose songs and dances personally. As an entertainment to please it, it can be said that the girl has exhausted everything she can for the father she respects and believes in.

   For all of this, Da Snake also sees it, and occasionally uses some memories from his previous life to give some help to the girl.

   For example, what fertilization, reclamation, building structure, etc., but the big snake and the impression are directly taught to Mona, anyway, for it, this knowledge has no effect at all.

   And for a new civilization and kingdom, it is enough to be called a huge help, causing its population to expand rapidly. Don't forget, until now, the entire human world has only been in an era of transition from bronze to iron, and all aspects of civilization are still extremely backward.

However, no matter how clever the mind is, it is unable to fight against the barrenness of the geographical environment~www.readwn.com~ The entire eastern swamp, although it is not full of swamps, occasionally plains and mountains, but the harsh environment makes even a girl no matter how hard it is Gathering the population, it is only the scale of millions of people, emptying about one-fifth of the territory of the entire continent, but the actual usable territory is extremely narrow.

In order to increase the population, she had to try to plunder the population from the prosperous human kingdoms outside the swamp. However, this will naturally lead to fierce confrontations in the human kingdom. Defeated by the coalition forces of this human kingdom, had to be defeated back to the depths of the swamp.

   At the same time, there is another disturbing news...

   Some soldiers discovered that there seemed to be some warriors with unusually sophisticated armors looking for something near the swamp.

   "Heroic warrior... is it because a powerful kingdom suddenly appeared in the depths of the swamp that was supposed to be deserted, so some gods turned their attention to this place..."

   Orochi groaned.

   At present, he doesn't want to confront those gods head-on, at least it is not now.

   That is to say, the foreign plundering war of the kingdom of the snake worship can only come to an end first, retreat to the depths of the swamp, quietly accumulate strength, and it is not suitable to move.

   But, it’s not its character to let the big snake wait like this, so what should I do now...

   The big snake lay deep in the bottom of the sea, flickering in the cold pupils.

   However, one thing that was gradually overlooked by Orochi is that he was once too lazy to use his brain because of his strong self-sustaining power, but because he was imprisoned in the depths of the sea, he could not exert his power and could only be forced to start to activate his brain.

   In a sense, this is also a benefit... right?
