I, the only extraordinary in this world

Chapter 154 The Ceremony Begins

"Yinluo, the ceremony has begun, come with me to receive the blessing of the snake mother."

An old voice came from the throat of the old woman who was wearing a gray-white priest's gown and whose white hair was coiled into twelve snake braids. The hoarse voice was like frosting, marking her extremely old lifespan.

Behind him are all female islanders, or there is no second gender here. These people's attire looks similar to that of Dusha Yinluo, and they are all the kind of clothing that has no "sense of shame".

Dusha Yinluo lowered her eyebrows and lowered her eyes, with a calm smile, completely different from the previous lively and jumping, as if she had completely accepted her own fate.

Even High Priest Martha seemed a little surprised by this, and couldn't help but look at her a few more times, wanting to see if this deviant child was playing some tricks.

However, after several confirmations, it was found that she was indeed nothing special, so she followed them out of the moon cave where she was imprisoned very obediently, and obediently followed them to participate in the ongoing ceremony on the island.

The rings that bound her were also removed from her hands and feet, and were taken back by the high priest.

More than a dozen women of the same age held up special-shaped banner cloth sewn from unknown animal furs, and crossed them on top of her head. The hanging crystal pendants shone in the sun, and there was an inexplicable feeling. Sense of sacredness.

This kind of special treatment can only be enjoyed by the chosen evangelists. The high priest personally leads the way, accompanied by the ceremonial performers. Various musical instruments made of strange metals are playing, and they emit tunes that are completely different from the aesthetics of modern humans.

After everyone left the moon cave, a hidden figure jumped out of it, and then disappeared into the dense island jungle in an instant, followed closely, silently like the most brilliant stalker generally.

Walking through the primitive jungle millions of years ago, Li Heng looked at the advancing team and the islands with strong religious colors. There were various half-human, half-snake totem imprints everywhere. The buildings made of stone or base earth are located on the ground in a ring shape.

"There are no traces of production, no traces of livestock, no traces of large-scale planting, not even obvious food processing areas..."

This does not conform to the normal form of human settlements. Even if civilization is not formed, a normal human settlement will still have major traces of production. Even primitive tribes on hidden islands hanging overseas know how to domesticate some animals and plants. Supplement Survival supplies.

But there is no similar structure here, it seems as if the survival here does not require any management or supplies.

Reminiscent of the information Dusha Yinluo said before, it seems that all the living materials here are provided by the "Mother Snake". The food, water and all kinds of supplies are distributed by the priests to all the people on Yalulu Island.

This is the gift of the snake mother.

This gift is so abundant that people on the island do not need to carry out any production activities, no farming, no grazing, no need to dry salt, no need to weave... All the resources needed are gifted by the snake mother, and they are completely sufficient for the survival of the people on the island.

As long as the complete blessing process of "Mother Snake" is repeated, there will be no shortage of resources here.

However, the gift materials are not so rich that the people on the island can do whatever they want. Li Heng rarely sees large tools. On the one hand, they don’t need them at all; raw material.

The boat that Dusha Yinluo crossed the water last time was secretly obtained from the priest.

"Well, looking at it this way, I feel that this place is really an idyllic era."

"It's like the legendary paradise, although it doesn't have everything, but it does exist without worry. All the price is to worship the 'snake mother'."

"A perfect lifestyle, I am afraid that many young people dream of life today"

He secretly said in his heart.

And as far as the eye can see, all the people on the island are women. Basically, everyone wears very simple clothes like Dusha Yinluo, exposing a large area of ​​skin, and the climate here is tropical, even slightly thicker. None of the cloth is needed.

He also saw some of the Yaluru people with round and protruding abdomens. There is no doubt that these are the islanders who have received the "blessing", and the "seed of life" bestowed by the "snake mother" is conceiving in their bodies.

And Li Heng also discovered that other people on the island have a special respect for these blessed ones that is different from ordinary people. Except for the priests, everyone shows respect and courtesy to these evangelists, and they also enjoy food first. Will humbly step aside.

This is not out of the morality of caring for pregnant women, but more like a specific rule, and the blessed have a superior status.

Combined with what Dusha Yinluo said before, the gift of the snake mother is bound to the blessing ceremony, which means that those material resources are given to these "gospel people", while others are just enjoying the surplus. It's nothing more than grace, so they naturally enjoy absolute priority and will be treated and served by everyone on the entire island.

“It is simply the first-class confinement center in the world.”

Li Heng couldn't help sighing inwardly, but he didn't know what the "confinement center" paid for.

After observing it, he felt that there was no more information to be obtained. Li Heng didn't stay in the residential area of ​​the island too much. He quickly disappeared into the jungle and headed towards the edge of the island.

Dusha Inro has been brought there and the ceremony is about to take place.

And if you stay here for too long, it will be easy to be exposed. These Yalulu people have unusually keen senses, which may be related to their natural bioelectric ability.

The breeze from the lake blows over the sandy beaches full of golden yellow sand, and the long teams stand neatly on the shore, arranged in a slightly curved serpentine guard of honor. The tall statues of human snakes stand majestically, looking at the boundless water waves in the distance, The sparkling waves rolled in one after another.

In addition to the members of the ceremony team itself, there are also a group of young Yalulu people who came here, each of them came here with bare feet and bare legs, wading in the water, with their hands folded on the lower abdomen, full of piety and excitement He smiled and stood here respectfully according to the instructions of the priests.

They are all chosen evangelists, selected by priests to receive blessings.

This is the supreme glory of the Yalulu people, and it is also the only way for every Yalulu people.

As usual, in addition to these evangelists this year, those who were blessed last year will also come here and enter the "Gospel Island" to take out the newborn babies conceived by the snake mother messenger.

It's just that this year's blessing ceremony was held in advance, and they didn't wait until their birthdays. Those former evangelists hadn't arrived yet. They were exactly the round bellies Li Heng saw on the island, and they were all in the state of "waiting for labor".

"O great mother who dwells in heaven"

"Your brilliance and glory are the direction we pursue, and your magnificence and loftiness are the depths that we cannot directly look at. You have given us the only remaining island in the world, and we have survived to this day."

Suddenly, the high priest Martha, who was full of white hair and wrinkled face, raised her head and shouted in excitement, then slowly knelt down and prostrated herself on the gravel. She made such a movement that one wondered if she would lie down next moment. I can't get up from the ground.

"We hear your voice, we admire your breath, we thank you for your blessing..."

Just like any religious character's usual way of jumping to the gods, the High Priest Martha shook her old and withered short body, as if she was going to shake herself to pieces.

"The messenger is coming! Everything belongs to the Mother Snake..."

Accompanied by her unintelligible prayers and inexplicable incantations, the water waves on the shore of the island seemed to become more violent. Layers of water waves rushed to the beach and soaked it here. Luren was also submerged under the waves.

Apart from the priest, Dusha Yinluo was the first to bear the brunt. The humid sea breeze and water waves made her skin wet, and crystal drops hung on her delicate and smooth skin like amethyst. The light is refracted into seven-color rainbows, revealing a mysterious sense of glamor and incomparable objects.

However, at this moment, she was a little restless, with a hint of anxiety in her big beautiful eyes, as if she was waiting for something, and from time to time she turned her head slightly to look around.

But there are priests and other people on the side, so she can't move too much.

slam-la-

At this moment, the impacting water wave became even bigger, and a large number of surging white waves rushed from the lake not far away, like a white wall that was once rising high up!

The magnificent movement shocked all those present. Although it was not the first time for them to witness all this, as evangelists, it was the first time for them to experience it personally, and they were incomparably excited.

Puff la la——

There was another huge sound of water waves, and a huge and ferocious head came out of the water. This familiar guy, Dusha Yinluo, had already witnessed it at close range. This was the giant real water snake driven by the snake mother envoy last time.

But the difference is that this time there is more than one head!
Crash, blah, blah—huge snake heads drilled out one after another from the bottom of the water. Their huge bodies stirred up the lake and flooded it, slapping the shore continuously.

But this is not over yet. Along with the activities of these giant real water snakes, a giant object like a hill emerges from the water. rise to the surface.

When the giant came out of the water and finally saw it clearly, it was discovered that it was actually a pyramid!

That's right, what rose from the water turned out to be a pyramid-shaped building gleaming with metallic silver luster. This was what they called "Gospel Island".

The momentum this time was far greater than that of a real water giant snake before, and the entire island shore fell into a solemn atmosphere under the threat of the huge building that emerged from the water. The priest took the lead in kneeling, and all the people of Yalulu Island Prostrate and bow to the emissary of the snake mother.

Sure enough, in this majestic and majestic aura, those creatures covered with feathers and snake tails reappeared again, still in the same style as if they had albinism, the skin, feathers, and snake scales were all pale and cold. Intimidating breath.

But it is also this "coldness" that maintains their natural "nobility" and makes these Yalulu people admire.

The messenger has arrived, the hour has come.

The huge Gospel Island slowly landed under the consignment of the giant snakes. All the priests stood up and led the evangelists behind them to follow the snake mother messenger into the Gospel Island.

Those young evangelists had never experienced this before, so they couldn't help showing a little fear when they came into contact with these giant snakes at such a close distance, but they were more curious and close.

The ceremony began, and these young people from Aluru Island had to step into the "Gospel Island" one after another following the "guidance" of the messenger. Soon it was Dusha Yinluo's turn. She was the chosen Gospel person and was specially arranged at the end , but it won't be long before she will enter this treacherous building.

Unlike all the other Aluru people who are eager to try and get excited, she only has uneasiness and apprehension in her heart, as well as an anxious...expectation.

"Yinluo, why don't you leave, don't let the messenger wait"

The High Priest's characteristic gritty rubbing voice sounded behind her, urging her to move. The snake mother messenger who lived high on Gospel Island also looked down at her, staring at her like a cold-blooded animal, making her feel numb and uncomfortable.

At this moment, she suddenly widened her eyes and was taken aback.

She felt as if someone had suddenly touched her face!
This familiar touch immediately swept away her restlessness, and as if she had great courage, she immediately put on a smiling and sweet face and followed the instructions to board the Gospel Island.

Of course it wouldn't be someone else who could still touch her face under such circumstances.

Activated Li Heng, who was invisible and invisible, and always followed the priest team. Now he can hold his breath from now on until the sun goes down!
Including the so-called snake mother messenger, everyone failed to notice his existence, and the only thing he needs to pay attention to is to try not to leave footprints on the wet sand, so he is stepping on the footprints of those people before him Forward.

Facts have proved that even in this ancient era where aliens exist, transcendence is still an existence that cannot be met.

Including these half-human, half-snake guys, whether they were the ones that Li Heng easily blew up last time, or these few who couldn't recognize themselves with staring old eyes, they are all mortal bodies, stronger than humans or animals. Where did the flesh and blood go.

They are also mortal things.

As for these Yalulu people, although they are born with some ability to generate electric current and control electric current, they are actually not much better than electric eels.

If I had to say it, the unknown existence that Li Heng encountered when he connected for the first time could be regarded as a real strong man.

In this way, he entered this "Gospel Island", which is regarded as sacred by the Aluru, under the "sight of everyone".

"It's not a metal, but it has the hardness and toughness of a metal"

Li Heng looked at this gleaming pyramid-shaped giant made of silver and analyzed its composition. His eyes were so sharp that he scanned this never-before-seen material, capturing the tiny structure in his eyes as clearly as a microscope. .

"Ok?"

Then, he discovered a phenomenon that shocked him a bit.

When he looked deeply, he suddenly found that there were a lot of network structures, or very small pore tube structures, on the seemingly metal-like "Gospel Island" shell.

It seems that countless tiny tubes are densely combined to form this huge "pyramid".

This kind of structure is very rare in inorganic substances in nature, whether it is rock, soil or even artificial concrete. On the contrary, this kind of structure most often occurs in organic substances, such as animal bones, carapaces, teeth...

Although these parts are essentially composed of carbonates and the like, their molding method is completely different from that of various stones of similar composition in nature. They are synthesized by the protein structure and inorganic matter during biological development.

And it is stacked layer by layer like building a house, leaving a large number of structural gaps at the microscopic level, gaining hardness and toughness while being far lighter than stones.

If this judgment is true, then the super-large pyramid-shaped "ship" in front of me is actually the carapace shell of a huge creature? !
