The unknown star field of the Milky Way, the planet Krakul, the home planet of the Koroks.
After more than three months, Shepard had to admit that no matter how many places she had been to, the planet Krakul would be the most special one among them.
In the cities of this planet, there are giants walking everywhere who are two to three meters tall, some even reaching four meters. And these giants, without exception, all have ferocious faces, and all the terrifying shapes that can be imagined are in these giants
It is vividly reflected in the body.
Sharp barbs are already the basic operation, tentacles full of suckers, a big mouth full of fangs, vesicles flowing with pus, densely packed sharp teeth... Even the best horror painter cannot imagine such a thing.
A wide variety.
In such an environment, if you are a person with a slightly lower psychological endurance, you may have a psychological breakdown within a few days.
However, fortunately, the team of Shepard, Huang Yehao, Ashley Williams and others are all elites among the elites. Naturally, they cannot be shaken by such an illusion. These terrifying giants
, in fact, they are all just illusions.
Yes, this is the home planet of the Koroks, and the Koroks are a race that is good at creating illusions of the Force.
Their bodies are very tiny, just a slug that is no more than 30 centimeters long and has more than a dozen slender limbs. Creating the illusion of the Force is their means of self-protection.
Of course, for the Korok people, this is not just about self-protection. Using illusions of the Force to deceive and blackmail is their main purpose.
Because of this ability, Korok people are born to live in concealment and deception. In such an environment, every Korok person has a vicious mind and is full of lies. Such a society has actually become a deformed and distorted society.
The lifespan of the Korok people is very long, at least tens of thousands of years. However, with such a lifespan and such abilities, the Korok people have never become a powerful civilization. The main reason is this
There is almost no social relationship based on trust.
The current political power of the Korok people is a council of elders, which is used to mediate disputes and conflicts that arise. In each city, there will also be branch mediation courts to deal with some relatively minor matters.
Apart from this, the Korok people do not have any more administrative agencies. There are only some industry associations, interest groups and other organizations, and these groups are also full of cheating and intrigue.
Under such circumstances, the entire Korok civilization can maintain the status quo and gather a certain amount of strength to carry out some large-scale projects, which is already the limit. Does civilization want to develop? That is impossible.
When Shepard came to the planet Krakul, the civil war on the planet had still not stopped.
Because the Korok civilization cannot resist the erosion of Mongal-Mongal, the god of decay, it can only raise large numbers of Lugubra, a combat creature that looks like an enlarged leech. Lugubra can devour Mongal-Mongal without being infected.
It is precisely because of this that Korok was able to defend his planet.
It's just that Mongar-Mongal doesn't matter. It completely surrounds the planet Krakul. All habitable planets within hundreds of light-years around it are swallowed up by Mongar-Mongal. The Korok people can't do anything at all.
Escape from this huge prison.
Under such circumstances, the Korok people have little hope of escaping and relocating unless they abandon their home planet. But this is unlikely. Because the social form of the Korok people makes it impossible for them to build such an industrial system.
A spaceship that can hold an entire civilization, and there are no supplies to support such an ultra-long distance voyage.
And what's even worse is that in order to resist the erosion of Mongar-Mongal, the Korok people raised a large number of Lugubras. Later, they entrusted the Kamino people to help them improve the genes of Lugubras to allow this kind of fighting.
The combat effectiveness of creatures is more powerful.
But the more powerful combat power also made Lu Gubula's appetite grow bigger and bigger.
In the end, the supplies on the entire planet Krakul were unable to sustain such a large number of Lugubras. So due to the extreme shortage of supplies, the civil war finally broke out.
This civil war lasted for decades. The Korok people split into more than a dozen factions and fought against each other, resulting in heavy casualties. In the end, more than a dozen factions merged with each other, and only the two largest factions still existed.
And the fight continues.
However, the battles between the Koroks were all conducted by manipulating Lugubra. They would not set foot on the battlefield themselves, so their civil war was more than fierce but not cruel enough.
This is the situation Shepard faced when he arrived, and this is why all the Koroks they saw created extremely ferocious and terrifying illusions for themselves. Because in such a war, they would not trust anyone at all, and they could only
Protect yourself through such illusions.
Shepard also feels a very headache, because currently, the Koroks are the race that knows the most about Mongar-Mongar, and they also have an ancient artifact that may be able to fight against them-the Soul Harp (2051~
The content of Chapter 2054).
But under such circumstances, it is impossible for the Koroks to play any role in the fight against Mongal-Mongal. And the battle continues to this day, and you don’t even know how many people on both sides of the war have been secretly plotted by Mongal-Mongal.
Controlled.
Shepard could only wander around, dealing with the last two major factions. The names of these two major factions were very confusing to pronounce in the standard language of the galaxy, so Shepard used simple logos to call them——
The Pistol Faction and the Elders Faction. The Pistol Faction is because their flag is a pistol-like weapon, and the Elders Faction is because this is the faction the Presbyterian Church belongs to.
The Soul Harp is controlled by the Elder Faction.
In this process, Shepard also used her excellent social coordination skills to run between the two major factions, first of all, she wanted to achieve a truce between the two major factions.
To this end, she led her team to conduct several deterrent operations on the battlefield, including kidnapping commanders, misleading the army, stealing combat plans, blocking logistical supplies, etc.
It has to be said that their combat capabilities are really strong. Compared to the Koroks who only know how to use combat creatures Lugubra to fight wars, I don't know how high it is. The Normandy shuttles around like a ghost, and there is no way to resist it.
Therefore, under such a turbulent action, the war between the two warring parties finally could no longer continue, and they were forced to reach a ceasefire.
