#154 - The Second Miracle
Karl didn't know how he got on Fierce Tooth; all he knew was that he seemed to have had a dream. In the cold wind and snow, the god's pet carried him through the air, the swirling ice mist resembling an ice dragon. The wind tore at his body with a knife-like pain, but Karl's heart was filled with shock and excitement.
Fierce Tooth was very fast, reaching Karl's tribe in less than an hour.
Karl's tribe was located in a small canyon called Iceling Valley. Because of the terrain, it created a natural haven for the tribe's residents. Most importantly, there was an extremely rare hot spring at the deepest part of the canyon. This was very important to the entire tribe. In fact, the tribe had even clashed with other tribes over this hot spring.
On the cold planet of Rothska, a hot spring meant the continuation of life. No one dared to ignore this significance. This was also why Karl's tribe was poor, yet many girls were still willing to marry into it.
It was noon when Karl returned to the tribe. Most of the men in the tribe had gone out hunting, and they rarely returned during the long hunting season. Only when they had hunted enough food would they reappear in the tribe. However, due to the harsh environment, some people never returned each year.
When Karl returned to the tribe, the whole tribe was in an uproar.
It wasn't because he was being high-profile; it was simply that Fierce Tooth's appearance was too shocking. Fierce Tooth, wearing specialized armor, could fly at low altitude. When it landed in the open space of the canyon, swirling up ice shards, everyone who saw it was stunned.
For the Rothska people, who lived in an almost primitive environment, flying... that was the domain of gods and god warriors.
The first to see Fierce Tooth was a strong woman. She was cutting up an icefield elephant outside her icehouse when she saw Fierce Tooth descend from the sky. She was stunned for a moment, then suddenly screamed. The piercing scream spread throughout the tribe. In just an instant, dozens of men ran out of the icehouses with weapons in their hands.
But they were also stunned when they saw Fierce Tooth.
"What... what is that?" a man asked, pointing at Fierce Tooth. His voice trembled, with a hint of anticipation and fear.
As descendants of the god warriors, these men had grown up listening to the legends of the god warriors. Even if they were unobservant, they could see how special Fierce Tooth's armor was and how similar it was to the divine armament used by the god warriors in the legends.
Immediately, a man ran back like crazy, and after a while, he led an old man over, staggering. It was the tribe's elder.
"This... this is our Lord's divine pet!" As expected of the tribe's elder, he saw Fierce Tooth's extraordinary nature at a glance. He trembled and knelt on the ground, looking incredulously at the armor on Fierce Tooth, not missing any texture or detail. As an elder, he was obviously more knowledgeable than ordinary people and knew what Fierce Tooth's armor meant.
His reaction caused everyone present to kneel, their eyes filled with fanaticism. Everyone's heart was filled with uncontrollable excitement, and many people burst into tears on the spot.
How many years... how many years had it been...
After the day the sky was scorched, they never saw the figure of God again. They all thought that God had abandoned this place. Without God's favor, they no longer had the glory of the past. Cold and hunger oppressed everyone, and hundreds of babies died every year. Their hearts were also filled with shame and pain.
Those who have not experienced it themselves can never understand the despair of faith collapsing. It can be said that in the past countless years, the Rothska people had struggled in despair. If their elders had not been telling them that God would return, they would have died in shame and despair long ago.
The tarnished glory of the god warriors was a stain that could never be erased for every descendant.
But today, a divine pet suddenly appeared in the tribe, like a light suddenly appearing in the darkness, igniting hope in people's hearts.
Karl had already jumped off Fierce Tooth, almost tumbling and crawling to the elder's side, and recounted what had happened. The elder listened carefully, not missing any detail, especially the part where Fierce Tooth jumped out of the assault pod. Finally, he asked seriously.
"Is that divine artifact still in place?"
"Yes, Great Elder," Karl hurriedly nodded, then carefully took out the metal piece that Fierce Tooth had given him from his arms and presented it to the elder with both hands.
"This is the sacred object bestowed upon me by our Lord. Please accept it, Elder."
According to the tribe's rules, all gains were common property, and only the elder had the right to distribute them. Karl's actions complied with the tribe's rules.
This was also the tradition of the god warriors, strict discipline.
The Great Elder trembled, and his old, dim eyes gradually fell on the metal piece. Unknowingly, tears streamed down his face. "This is our Lord's grace... how many years... how many years..."
"Please don't be agitated, Great Elder," a girl next to him said quickly. The Great Elder was old, and it was easy for something to happen if he was too excited.
The Great Elder waved his hand, signaling the girl not to say more. Then he stroked the metal piece for a while. The energy of the metal piece took effect, immediately dispelling all the cold on his body. The Great Elder couldn't help but let out a comfortable groan. After a while, he opened his eyes and said to Karl. "You have done well. I will reward you handsomely. As for this sacred object, since it is the grace bestowed upon you by the divine pet, then you shall keep it."
"Great Elder," Karl said in surprise. This was not in accordance with the tribe's rules.
"I know what you want to say," the Great Elder shook his head. "But this is different. You must know... in the past, the divine grace obtained by the god warriors always belonged to the god warriors privately. No one was allowed to share the divine grace without the permission of the god warrior. This is the greatest rule."
"Ah!" Karl opened his mouth wide in surprise, almost doubting his ears. "Elder, what did you say... are you saying... god warrior?"
"What did you think it was?" The Great Elder glanced at Karl, his eyes flashing with wisdom. "The appearance of the divine pet means that our Lord has once again turned his gaze here. It has been silent for countless years... we are finally going to bathe in divine grace again. Therefore, we must dedicate the best warriors to be worthy of our Lord's favor. Karl, you are the most outstanding warrior in our tribe, and the glory of the god warrior will surely have a share for you."
"Great Elder!!" Karl was so excited that he couldn't speak. Although he had this intention for a long time, when the Great Elder really said it, Karl had a dreamlike feeling.
God warrior... what a glorious title, could it be that I... can also become one of them?
"Alright. Don't be excited yet. There are still things you need to do," the Great Elder shook his head and said.
"Please instruct me, Great Elder," Karl hurriedly lowered his head and replied respectfully.
The Great Elder did not speak immediately, but quietly raised his head and glanced at Fierce Tooth. At this moment, Fierce Tooth was surrounded by the entire tribe, curiously looking around. The silver armor shone with a unique luster in the sunlight. Some precise machinery could even be seen operating within it. And around it, everyone bowed their heads respectfully, waiting for the Great Elder's command.
"Do you know... how to communicate with the divine pet?"
The most ⊥newest ⊥ small ⊥ said ⊥ is ⊥ at ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥⊥ book ⊥⊥ bar ⊥⊥ first ⊥ hair!
Karl's heart skipped a beat. "I don't know."
"Is that so?" The Great Elder had a headache. Although the inherited information recorded what divine pets liked, Fierce Tooth was obviously different. In fact, in that era, the gods' pets were mostly powerful higher life forms. There were almost no low-level life forms like Fierce Tooth. (Although Fierce Tooth was a Nether Leopard, its life level was not high, at most the level of the Fifth World.)
For a time, the Great Elder was also a little embarrassed. The divine pet represented the glory of God, and it must not be treated lightly under any circumstances. But if they didn't understand the divine pet's preferences, they couldn't serve it well. This was a major event that affected the group.
Fortunately, Karl had a good brain and immediately remembered the scene when he first met Fierce Tooth. He hurriedly said. "It seems that Lord Divine Pet likes ice python meat."
"Really?" The Great Elder's eyes lit up. This was easy to handle. He said to the girl next to him. "Go, bring out all the tribe's meat and let Lord Divine Pet choose."
"Great Elder!" The girl was slightly startled. All the tribe's meat was their hope for survival. Without meat, the babies born would die quickly. On this cold planet, without meat meant death.
"Go!" The Great Elder scolded in an unquestionable tone.
The girl's face changed slightly, and she hurriedly retreated. Then the Great Elder turned his gaze to Karl. "There is still one thing I want you to do."
"Yes, Great Elder."
"That divine artifact," the Great Elder said solemnly. "Take a few people immediately and bring it back."
"Huh?" Karl was stunned. This was not an easy task. Although the divine artifact was not large in size, it was not light in weight. It would be too difficult for them to do it alone. But the Great Elder's order could not be disobeyed, and Karl agreed.
Then he moved his gaze, wanting to choose a few people. But after looking for a while, he suddenly froze. "Great Elder, why isn't Merk here?"
Merk was the warrior who stayed behind during this hunting season. According to the rules, he should be by the Great Elder's side at all times.
"Merk has been sent out by me," the Great Elder said. "Because you are not the only one who discovered the miracle. Another warrior also discovered it. But he couldn't check it at the time. So I called Merk to go."
"There is another miracle?" Karl's heart beat. Greatly surprised. "Are you saying that our Lord personally descended?"
"I don't know," the Great Elder shook his head. "Maybe it was just an accidental avalanche, but we can't let go of any hope. Alright, go do your work first. We will serve the divine pet."
"Yes!" Karl agreed loudly and turned to the icehouse.
And behind him, the Great Elder raised his head to the sky, lost in thought. "Could it be... is this real?"
The Great Elder's face... was covered in tears...
