Chapter 618 Years of Loneliness
"The Lord of Death has resurrected our ancestors..."
"We have become God's people, we have welcomed a new god, a living god!"
The Black Panther Spirit Beast Village Chief is now in a completely different state. After a brief moment of surprise, it resumes its spirit beast form and begins to encourage its villagers.
"Long live, long live... This is wonderful! Our people are finally free, the curse is being lifted! The God of Darkness has descended in person, bringing the Death Knights! We are free. No more hiding, we can rebuild our tribe with our heads held high! From this day forward, we are the Death Tribe, children, take up your weapons..."
......
The village chief, who already held a high position and risked his life to save others, has now become the enemy's number one follower.
Although the troll villagers felt a little awkward, they still knelt down and worshipped the new god along with the village chief's beast soul. After all, the village chief was the one who spoke, and the ordinary trolls didn't have much fighting power to begin with. They were actually relieved to have survived and received protection.
Some villagers suspected that the village chief's soul was being controlled, but faced with the Death Knight's imposing presence, they convinced themselves that this was indeed the redemptive prophecy the village chief had spoken of...
The more you hit them, the more they respect you.
Such absurd realities exist in the world... where polite respect is met with hostility and contempt. Those who insist on proving themselves through the most blatant means to understand the situation are, in a sense, a bunch of fools from beginning to end.
We've returned to the initial victim-blaming mentality; the cycle of One Hundred Years of Solitude will never be broken, and suffering will only be repeated.
Lorraine went through all of this in a very frustrating way.
It was the first time it had witnessed the power of a charlatan.
Oh no, it seems this isn't the first time; the altars on Atonement Island are even more awe-inspiring...
But this time, we also witnessed the mentality of the weak... Those ordinary civilians who bowed to the forces of evil had no choice at all. Or rather, most of them were pitiful people who were coerced. The saying "there is always something hateful about a pitiful person" is mostly slander, mockery, defamation, and fallacy.
It's still some self-important individuals who make humiliating remarks and jokes about the weak.
Some evildoers try to justify their own evil deeds by attributing the hateful aspects of their victims to them.
However, victims are not necessarily the weak; the weak are more likely to become victims. When the roles are reversed, things seem inhumane... Witnessing everything in Troll Village, Lorraine felt a mix of emotions. He suddenly understood why Old Chen mentioned Troll Village, repeatedly emphasizing that it was the first obstacle Lorraine had to overcome to leave.
It turns out that the trolls here are not so powerful, but rather pitiful, weak, innocent, ignorant, foolish, primitive, and simple... But how should a strong person like you, a self-righteous strong person, treat those who are ignorant and foolish?
How do you deal with seemingly harmless adversaries?
Is it mockery?
Is it oppression, exploitation, or simply harm?
What exactly makes a true hero great?
True wisdom and strength, true kindness and justice, are not merely literal assumptions... But rather, when faced with the interests of their community, they make dangerous choices and act absurdly. All the righteous slogans they preach cannot compare to the true choices they make in a moment of crisis...
One moment the old village chief was an elder and a hero, the next he's a foolish servant...
The moment Lorraine stepped out of the sacred temple tomb of the troll village, he seemed to understand something new. With a casual wave of his hand, he resurrected countless troll mummies. These soulless shells needed Lorraine to fill them...
Another new species, the troll mummy...
This hidden force, while not as powerful as his three death knight commanders, and perhaps not even as formidable as the three hundred flame-forged undead skeleton servants, was still far stronger than the skeleton beasts, especially in terms of sheer numbers. The necromancer's true power only became apparent when encountering tombs and graveyards capable of resurrecting countless corpses.
The rumor of an army of skeletons reappearing in the world seems to exist only in Razorfen Downs, which Lorraine longs to visit.
Kalimdor possesses the power of the Scourge, deep within Razorfen Downs, where a lich, accompanied by a powerful abomination, slaughtered over two thousand quilboar and resurrected them into an army of skeletons, originally driven by hatred.
For some reason, the quilboars made contact with the Scourge's emissaries, willing to use their power to fight against the Horde's invaders.
The boar-men can no longer endure the shrinking living space caused by the orcs and minotaurs. Lacking water and food, they have been driven to the brink of despair...
From Lilith, Lorraine learned that the Horde's offensive expansion was aimed precisely at the territories of the boar and centaur, who threatened the tauren allies. It seemed perfectly natural and justifiable for the new Horde to fight these savage local boar and centaurs.
......
After a long struggle, the trolls of Troll Village, led by the village chief, submitted. The village chief also sent people to retrieve the troll villagers who had fled.
The village chief has lost his physical body; he now follows Lorraine in the form of a spirit beast, and is now completely open and honest with her...
The troll village is located at the bottom of the cliff face, blocking the entrance to the other side of the Storm Altar. The Shattered Spear trolls do have the mission and responsibility to protect the Storm Altar, but the current Shattered Spear troll tribe has lost its fighting power, and hiding on the edge and relying on the mist of the ruins is a choice made out of necessity.
The goblin tycoons of the underground city have been unable to find the true location of the Storm Altar, and they have come to suspect that the troll village is blocking the way, so they are increasing their attacks on the troll village.
After several encounters, it became clear that the trolls in the troll village were powerless, and the underground city's actions became more frequent and rampant, which is why the village chief fought back desperately.
He thought Lorraine was a deadly force sent by the enemy.
An egg hitting a rock is doomed to destruction.
The village chief, now without a body, had already been punished, and several lives had been lost in the village. Following the principle of not wasting anything, and under the villagers' fearful yet devout eyes, Lorraine resurrected these fallen troll warriors.
Because their souls were replaced with vengeful spirits, they were no longer the familiar relatives and friends of the villagers...
One can only keep a respectful distance...
The troll undead bandage death warriors became the symbol of the village's gods. These undead warriors, who only obeyed Lorraine, became the village chief's truly powerful subordinates, which could be considered Lorraine's reward for the village chief's allegiance.
Lorraine didn't even bother to ask what the troll village chief's name was; he only knew that trolls followed a principle when naming themselves: names were based on their characteristics and status.
The village chief's real name seems to be something like Fang...
Since it calls itself the Tiger God, and is now in the black panther form of the Spirit Beast... Lorraine decided to call it Tiger God & Fang...Fang Village Chief, with great fanfare, sent villagers to serve Lorraine, but Lorraine refused and suggested they go dance instead...
Anyway, they're all street dance experts...
Surprisingly, these trolls, who had clearly lost half their village chief, seemed to be singing and dancing while repairing their houses...
These trolls could do 360-degree Thomas Flair and consecutive somersaults; their primitive dance revealed a sense of piety and ecstasy. Lorraine had no idea what they were celebrating...
Celebrating his survival?
When asked, the villagers said that the village had acquired a new guardian deity, and the Shattered Spear Troll Village was renamed the Death Tribe. The Death Trolls worshipped Lorraine as their god... They abandoned the infamous Bwonsamdi, and Lorraine became their guardian deity.
This left Lorraine stunned...
After a brief moment of surprise, Lorraine readily accepted this awesome title.
Being respected seems to be one of the things little Lorraine desires most.
The magic apprentice has not yet formally learned the spells required of a high-level mage from his mentor and gained recognition.
At this moment, he has become the new god of the primitive troll village. Isn't that delightful?
......
We rested in the village for a while, determined the true route out of the valley, and learned more about the situation of the [Underground City] and [Ghost Mist Peak] ahead... Only then did the village chief recount the situation around the Underground City with great sorrow...
"For at least a hundred years, we have never been disturbed by the outside world... until the arrival of those goblins who called themselves a venture capital firm..."
"When the World Tree was destroyed once more, the darkness that cursed our people once more descended... The Moon Goddess abandoned us, the Prophet banished us, and the Beast God no longer protected us... We lost our faith and can only rely on the Emerald Dream to heal the emptiness of our souls..."
"In recent years, terrifying nightmares have haunted our dreams, leaving us with no choice but to isolate ourselves from everything..."
