Chapter 712 [Blowing the wind of innovation in Zul'Gurub]
Babu is an honest Gurubashi troll - what, there are honest trolls too?
Of course!
It's just that the honest trolls will be cruel to other races. Just like the honest human farmers are still terrifying and cruel to the field mice.
Babu is lucky, his grandfather and father are jungle trolls born and raised in Zul'Gurub.
He became the troll of Zul'Gurbri.
Don't underestimate this.
Because of this, his life is far less difficult than that of trolls elsewhere.
Not only compared with the hell-level life of the original desert trolls, but also compared with the Gurubashi in the jungle of Stranglethorn Valley, it is much better.
At least the jungle trolls living in Zul'Gurub don't have to worry about being snatched away by wild beasts while sleeping, or being captured as slaves by incoming hostile tribes while sleeping!
In Zul'Gurub, protected by the gods, fighting between tribes is not allowed. In Zul'Gurub, protected by the gods, the beasts that harm the trolls are either killed, driven away, or become pets.
Except for the somewhat dangerous mountain lakes, the trolls in Zul'Gurbri may not be living very well, but at least they won't be starved for food.
Babu is very young.
He has a sister and a brother.
On this day, his mother Yabu called him: "We are running out of food at home! Go catch some fish in the lake. Be careful not to fall into the lake!"
The lake refers to the huge mountain lake in the center of Zul'Gurub, and the temple is located on the small island in the middle of the lake.
This lake called the Heart of Gurubashi is the mother lake of Zul'Gurub. Without it, there would be no Zul'Gurub.
More than half of the food of ordinary troll civilians is produced in the lake. Without it, the city would lose half its population. But at the same time, the lake would also be dangerous.
There are terrifying plesiosaurs, very large crocodiles, and other big fish that eat trolls in the lake! The Gurubashi is so determined that even if the troll chiefs want to destroy these guys, they are unable to do so.
Fortunately, as long as you don't swim in the lake casually and don't get targeted by them, the jungle trolls can also get along with the monsters in the lake.
If there is no food for the trolls who want to eat fish, all they need to do is bring a fishing rod and bait and fish for half a day by the lake in the drizzle, which will be enough to feed the next family of trolls for a day or two.
Babu took the fishing rod from his mother and left the house in the drizzle, heading to the lake.
Just walk to your usual fishing spot, throw down your fishing rod, and wait quietly.
In half a day, Babu caught enough fish to feed his family for two days, and then he went home leisurely.
Far away from his own home, Babu was horrified to see that the home built by himself and his mother was torn apart by a bunch of little men.
Mom, brother, and sister were still being held by a tall troll nearby. Babu saw his mother crying!
The honest troll was also angry.
That's his home with his mother and younger siblings!
Those are his mother and siblings!
Babu roared angrily and prepared to fight with all his strength. He swung the fishing rod and rushed over with his long legs.
He wants to kill those little dwarfs who demolished his house!
Babu's eyes were bloodshot, and his hair stood on end! His aura became more ferocious than ever before, and unknowingly, guided by anger, this ordinary troll used the innate ability of the troll family - bloodthirsty!
He screamed and rushed forward.
As a result, before he could get close to the busy dwarfs, with a bang, Babu was kicked away by the tall troll who was dragging his mother!
"What do you want to do?" The tall troll who grabbed his mother kicked Babu away and roared at the red-eyed Babu: "This is the goblin engineer who came to help you build your house! He is a guest invited by His Majesty the God King.
!what you up to?!!"
Babu's bloodthirsty mood froze as soon as he heard about the god-king who was so powerful in the city recently and wanted to kneel on the ground whenever the priests said his name.
At this time, his crying mother also came up to hold him and said, "Babu! Lord Ram said they are going to build a new house for us."
"Then...then why are you crying?" Babu murmured.
Lord Ram was a very prestigious troll nearby and a priest to the Tiger God. Babu believed what he said. Therefore, Babu, who was kicked away by Ram, did not fight back immediately.
Otherwise, in the bloodthirsty state of the troll, it would not be easily woken up by a kick or two.
"I cried because I couldn't bear to leave. After all, we built this house with our own hands." Babu's mother stopped crying and felt a little embarrassed.
"What a shabby house!" said the tall troll Ram next to him. "It leaks every day! It's wet everywhere inside! Except that it can block a little wind, how can it be a house?! Now the God King has invited goblin engineers, as long as the faith trusts
God Na and God Tiu, every Gurubashi troll has a good house to live in! Babu, take your mother and younger brothers and sisters, kneel in front of me and swear to the two supreme majesties!"
"Swear, swear, believe in God Tona and God Tiu? But... Sir, aren't we believers in the Tiger God?" Babu said in a daze.
Of course Babu has faith, as he is a troll, he has faith. Like Ram, he also believes in the tiger god. It should be said that the trolls in the nearby area are all believers in the tiger god.
But now the priest of Ram, the tiger god, actually asked him to swear to change his surname to another god.
Will the Tiger God agree?
If the tiger god doesn't agree, Babu would rather not have a new house than convert to the two gods he just heard about.
"Your Majesty Sivarla is now the god of two of your crowns!" Ram said impatiently. "In the future, all troll Loa will be the god of two of your crowns! Whether it is His Majesty Sivarla, or
All other Your Majesties are the same!"
"Belonging to God? His Majesty Sivarla and other majesties have become Gods? What does it mean to be Gods..."
Babu's intelligence and experience prevent him from understanding the difference between a main god and a god, just like other Gurubashi trolls.
"You don't need to understand that much! From now on, you only need to read the names of your two crown princes!"
Ram was too lazy to explain.
The jungle trolls have a large population. Because they have no education, their IQ and cultural levels are about the same. In fact, except for the Zandalar trolls, which have a tradition of attaching importance to education and culture, other troll tribes can write their own text, which is considered a culture.
A troll.
With this level of education, if each troll were to explain and introduce the differences between gods and main gods, this job alone would make all the troll priests stop thinking about doing anything else!
As long as they do this, priests like Ram will probably die from exhaustion. Therefore, the priests only need their followers to obey. Even if they don't obey, they must follow suit.
This is an order from their direct superiors, from those Loa!
And if a former tiger god priest like Ram takes the initiative to spread the faith of Tona and Tiu, he will naturally obtain the approval or even the request of the Loa of their faith.
Because not long ago, Tonatiu decided to start formally promoting his theistic beliefs in Zul'Gurub.
That is, the system of belonging to God and the Lord God.
Under this belief system, the main gods of the trolls are the sun god and the moon god. The original loa gods automatically become subordinates of the two main gods, that is, they are gods.
In this system, two main gods are high and in charge of everything. One manages the day and all fronts, and the other manages the night and monitors all darkness.
Other animal gods or Loa gods all perform their own duties under these two main gods - such as the tiger god Sivalla, who is the god of tigers, and also the brave god of trolls, the hunter.
God, the God of guards.
But while possessing these identities, He is also a subordinate of the sun god Tona and the moon god Tiu, responsible for patrolling the wilderness for the two crown princes!
Another example is the original Supreme Lo'Alezan of Zandalari. Under this latest troll belief system, he became the Devil Dragon God, the Son of the Sun, the Star of Glory, the God of Courage and Fighting!
Every troll Loa who surrendered to Tonatiu had his own new identity and became a part of this new belief system.
To put it simply, Tonatiu summarized the trolls' beliefs into a system.
To use a company metaphor, the Sun God and the Moon God are the chairman and vice chairman of the company.
As the human agent, Tonatiu is the general manager with the highest power in the company. The Loa gods who are willing to submit to this belief system are the heads of various departments within the company.
As for the priests, they are various employees of the company with different statuses.
What about the common people and believers of trolls at the bottom, who are company managers or...customers?
Anyway, that’s basically what it means.
For the first time, the trolls had a systematic belief. For the first time, Azeroth finally had a systematic belief.
Before Tonatiu came up with this set of things, Azeroth's beliefs had no system at all.
Although Azeroth has had Moon God Faith, Holy Light Faith, Loa Faith, and other messy beliefs before.
But these beliefs are random and without rules. At most, they only have some behavioral restraints and doctrinal guidance.
Just like today, priests like Ram received orders from the loa of their faith and began to spread this belief system widely among troll believers.
It has been a month since the God King led his army and the gospel to Zul'Gurub.
The policy of demolishing houses and building new ones, accompanied by the order to spread the new belief system, has indeed begun to affect this jungle troll city that has been stagnant for thousands of years.
This wind of innovation has expanded so much that it has even reached ordinary trolls like Babu, letting every jungle troll know that a new era for trolls has arrived!
Watching it being quickly demolished in the drizzle, and then quickly reassembled, before dark, a brand new, undecorated, all-wooden building stood at the original address of Babu's house.
Babu's family has a new house.
It's like the entire Gurubashi troll tribe has a new faith.
