Dozens of various cargo ships are docked on the beach to the west of Froststone Camp. Looking down from the sky, even late at night, you can still clearly see the scene on the beach illuminated by torches that looks like daytime.
, the busy figures of people shuttled back and forth, carrying boxes filled with treasures, dragging cages containing war beasts, and supporting the weak and sick tribesmen, all without stopping.
It took three days and three nights for the fleet to unload all the people and cargo.
Tens of thousands of new residents have blocked the area around Froststone Camp. Looking over, the mountains and plains are filled with immigrants looking for a place to stay.
Thanks to Rachel's preparations in advance, everyone who settled in was assigned enough food and tools when they disembarked from the ship. After arriving near the camp, under her overall management, everyone around the camp
In the forest, a one-square-kilometer residential area was opened up. According to living needs and ethnic origin, each of them was stationed in different pre-divided areas, and their respective residences were properly settled.
Even though Rachel and other camp managers tried their best to meet the needs of the residents, due to the sudden increase in the population of the camp, the racial forces became more complex, and many internal problems still occurred.
The first and most serious problem is the bullying and killings within the camp. Despite Todd's repeated orders, the captured Ulster people are valuable human resources in the camp and are slaves recognized by the gods. No one is allowed to deprive them of their rights at will.
life.
But there are still many slaves who have just gained freedom and hate the Ulster people. They openly or covertly use extremely cruel methods to rape and kill prisoners wantonly. Even the security team of the camp or the knights led by Valkyrie,
Nothing can stop these slaves from their desire for revenge.
The second problem is the conflict between the tribe leader and the warriors in the tribe.
In order to encourage the soldiers to fight bravely, and of course to reduce the influence of the clan leader and increase the centripetal force of the people in the camp, Todd deliberately broke the clan leader's tradition of distributing trophies and instead allowed the warriors to select and hold the trophies on their own based on their merits.
This method was welcomed by the majority of the tribe, and it also inspired the soldiers' will to win, and also improved the cohesion of the organization with Todd as the core.
There is a group of people who are extremely dissatisfied with this distribution method. These people are naturally the clan leaders of the tribe.
Originally, the most beautiful female slaves, the most exquisite tableware, and the most expensive treasures should all be in the pockets of these clan leaders. Now that the war merit distribution system has been adopted, the clan leaders can only receive the same share as most of the clansmen. Among them,
The disparity makes every clan leader complain.
Although Todd's identity as the "Son of the Gods" and the power embodied in his tyrant form shocked most of the tribe leaders, there were still a handful of people who used the authority of the tribe chiefs to forcibly confiscate the "trophies" of their warriors.
The most violent incident occurred when a tribal leader named Aimo, together with dozens of cronies, forcibly seized the trophies of the tribe's warrior Kuita.
Although the latter tried to resist, the tribal leader Aimo used Queta's family as a threat and finally forced him to hand over all his belongings.
The final problem is faith. The population of Froststone Camp has exceeded 10,000, but due to the composition of the population, they come from many regions, and the gods they believe in are naturally all kinds of strange.
Some believe in the sons of gods represented by Todd, others believe in Christ who was preached from the south, others believe deeply in the local legends of ancient gods with a long history in the north, and there are even believers who worship the mysterious voodoo religion.
So many different and diverse religious beliefs have given rise to a problem, that is, the mutual exclusion of religious beliefs has caused conflicts among believers in the camp.
This conflict may just remain a war of words now. If it is not resolved early, it will one day turn into a religious disaster.
In order to solve these problems, Todd spent a full half day to establish "soul links" with all relevant people in the camp, including the leaders of the slaves, representatives of the Ulster captives, and
Shamans and priests from all religious sects. Together, these people number more than 700.
After all the residents were settled, Todd specially selected a clear night to gather more than 700 people in the square of the camp in the name of seance.
At about eight o'clock in the evening, everyone was sitting cross-legged on the ground, quietly waiting for the legendary trance ceremony of the "son of the gods".
Seeing that everything had been arranged, Todd nodded towards the shaman Minnie beside him.
The old woman bowed slightly, and then recited a long prayer. At this time, under the astonished gaze of people, countless torches were raised around the square. They were made of cobblestones in circles.
The runes turned the entire square into a huge ceremonial platform.
Hearing the nervous chatter of people, Todd sat on a wooden platform built in the square, closing his eyes and saying nothing.
After chanting the prayer for almost a minute, the shaman Minni shouted towards the sky, and the words of the gods made of cobblestones suddenly floated into the air, frightening everyone in the square.
Jump.
Rachel, who was using "Ideology" to control the stone, coughed lightly at Todd in front of her. In full view of everyone, the latter suddenly stood up and used the "Condensing Light" ability to first combine the moonlight and
The firelight gathered in his hands and then hit the floating stones, causing the rune characters in mid-air to emit a gentle yet dazzling light.
"Oh my God! This is a miracle!"
"The gods have appeared!"
Accompanied by exclamations and shouts, more and more people quickly changed their positions and knelt on the ground facing Todd on the high platform.
Looking at everything in front of him, Todd nodded secretly with satisfaction.
Rachel behind him whispered to him: "Hurry up and get down to business... It's too difficult for me to control so many objects at once..."
After hearing this, Todd said to everyone in the audience: "I am a descendant of the gods! I am a witness to the changes in the era of the gods! I am also the leader in rebuilding the new world of gods!"
Listening to the sacred and resonant voice of the person on the stage, people looked at the radiant figure above their heads with awe, and a feeling of piety slowly rose in their hearts.
Todd suddenly stretched his arms to the sky and struck each other with both palms. With a loud noise, a dazzling white light exploded above everyone's heads. Everyone present was pulled into the Golden Palace of the Gods in the soul space.
.
This was the first time that Todd had pulled so many people into his soul space. Even though his body had been transformed by the tyrant, he still felt a little strenuous.
As soon as these more than 700 people entered the main hall of the Golden Palace, except for a few people who had been here last time, everyone else looked extremely shocked.
Some people fell to their knees, not knowing where to put their hands, and chanting all the prayers they could think of; others slumped on the ground, looking at everything in front of them that was beyond the scope of their understanding, and their whole bodies were completely turned upside down.
fell into chaos.
Accompanied by a burst of heavy footsteps, the entire Golden Palace trembled slightly like an earthquake. Todd, who transformed into a tyrant form, slowly walked up to the throne of the Golden Palace under the horrified gaze of everyone.
The golden beast pupils looked around at the crowd around him, and Todd said slowly: "Lost souls, welcome to the reconstructed Asgard sanctuary!"
