Warlord: King of All Clans

Wuliyan thought for a moment and suddenly said, "But faith is indeed a problem. You see, when someone dies in the village, the family members don't even have a place to cry."

Leo nodded and said, "Then let's build a small church and worship Tyr first."

"Since we are offering sacrifices to the God of War Tyr, why not also offer sacrifices to Odalov, Furelov, Lavard, and Basaka."

"This can't be called a chapel, it has to be called a temple."

Listening to the two talking back and forth and planning to create a wonder, the chief craftsman Valery next to them became anxious, "Isn't this bad? The floor of the big house hasn't been laid yet, and half of the people are still living in tents."

Wuliyang didn't care about him. He waved his hand and issued an order: "That's great! You decide. No matter how big or small the village is, there must be a temple. First, worship our ancestors and don't let those shady things seduce people's hearts."

The people in the North have very sloppy religious thinking. No matter whether it is a church or a temple, no matter whether it is a god they recognize or not, they always worship it when they pass by.

Even some ancient and strange trees, peculiarly shaped rocks, or difficult-to-climb mountains will be worshipped and prayed to.

The theoretical foundation of the Holy Light Church is very solid and far more attractive than those messy wild fox Zen.

If a temple is not built early to consolidate the faith in their ancestors, the villagers who have lost their spiritual support will easily be brainwashed and exploited.

Odalov, Furelov, Lavard and Basaka mentioned by Ulyan are all sons of Tyr in northern mythology.

The names of the first two should have been Odaro and Ferrera. In the late period of the Northern clan society, several clans such as Odaro and Ferrera rose up and each became king, and history entered the era of the Northern Kings.

In the end, the royal family of Odaro successfully reached the top and became the family of the High King in the North, and Odaro was successfully promoted to the eldest son of the god of war Tyr.

The ancestral name of Odaro became the ancestral surname of the Supreme King's family. After thousands of years of inheritance, it gradually evolved into Odalov.

The same is true for several other earl families that have been passed down for thousands of years. For example, the royal family of Friela evolved into the earl family of Frilov, and the royal family of Isya evolved into the earl family of Isharov.

As for Lavade and Basaka, the former is the ancestor of the Rio village and the latter is the ancestor of the wild people tribe.

The naming tradition in the North is very different from that in other places. Ordinary people usually just use their first names, and only use their last names when they meet someone with the same name, a stranger, or in formal occasions.

But the poor and backward village did not have so many intellectuals to come up with names, so everyone just used a few old names over and over again.

Just as every Chinese village has a Wei, every village in the North has an Ivan. There is even a saying that goes, "Those with names are Ivans, and those without names are fools."

Leo's friend Ivan is called Little Ivan because his father is also named Ivan.

His grandfather was also named Ivan.

If he met Ivan from the next village, he would introduce himself: "My name is Ivan Ivanov."

This is the combination of the birth name and the father's name, which means "Little Ivan, the son of Ivan's family."

If Ivan from the next village is also called Ivan Ivanov.

He would say his name was Ivan Ivanov-Lavad.

It means Ivan the Younger, the son of Ivan, a descendant of the Lavard clan.

Or you can simply add your grandfather's name after your father's name and start the infinite nesting doll mode.

This is why the full names of Northern nobles are often very long, with up to a hundred characters.

They will add all the famous and influential people from their ancestors to highlight the glory of the family.

The best way to show respect for a noble is to pronounce his full name, because it means you remember the glorious history of his entire family.

As for the descendants of small surnames like Lavade and Basaka, their ancestors were not rich, so they seldom do these fancy things.

Building a temple in the territory and worshipping the god of war Tyr and one's ancestors can not only consolidate rule and appease people's hearts, but also is a symbol of entering the ranks of the nobility.

Because the temple also serves a similar function as a clan temple, only the nobles have the ability to own their own clan temple.

One day, when Leo inherits Urian's title of pioneer knight and has his own children, he can loudly tell everyone under the throne of the temple: "This is my son, so-and-so, Leo Urian Lavard."

As for why Basaka was also placed in the temple for worship, Uliyan's little trick was clearly written on his face.

When Hewan develops and becomes popular in the future, I believe that the people will come to pay homage to their ancestors!

This is how the so-called sense of belonging is created.

In addition to discussing the construction of an ancestral temple, Leo also plans to reward several kobold blacksmiths.

In front of the campfire, in front of all the villagers in Riverbend, Leo announced loudly.

In view of the heroic performance of the Kobold Blacksmiths in protecting the River Bend, all Kobold Blacksmiths are hereby granted the title of "Kobold Warriors" and officially become citizens of the River Bend.

Leo friendly reminder, this is a title one level higher than the Kobold Warrior.

And every kobold blacksmith is rewarded with a blacksmith's leather apron.

And a Warrior's Hammer - an ordinary blacksmith's hammer with the words "Warrior's Hammer" carved on it.

This action, which seemed playful to Uliyan and others, surprisingly won the favor of the dog-headed man.

The kobold blacksmiths who went on stage to receive the awards held their heads high, stuck out their tongues, and wagged their tails rapidly.

They were like a group of primary school students who were rewarded with red flowers.

The group of kobold cubs below were barking excitedly, full of envy and yearning.

Old man Rusev tapped his pipe and said in amazement, "We can't figure out what the Kobolds are thinking. Leo has to figure it out."

A group of people nodded in agreement.

After being treated like this by Leo, the kobold blacksmith seemed to have achieved some kind of sublimation, and his temperament had obviously changed.

Before, they came to work at the Hewan Blacksmith Shop only because of Fraser's orders. In addition to free food and accommodation every month, they also received two extra bags of food as wages - of course, for Fraser.

All they did all day was forge iron and eat. They were unwilling to leave the blacksmith shop or communicate with any villagers other than human blacksmiths like Valeri.

Even some kobold blacksmiths are still wary and hostile towards humans. They are unwilling to pass on their blacksmithing knowledge and are afraid that they will be suddenly slaughtered and eaten by humans.

Even though Frasa repeatedly comforted them, humans don't eat kobolds.

After this day, these kobold blacksmiths finally began to actively try to communicate with the people of Riverbend, and they also began to boldly scold the careless blacksmith apprentices instead of turning a blind eye.

It was at this time that the kobold blacksmiths gradually revealed their amazing talent for blacksmithing.

The kobold blacksmith can actually smell the texture of ironware!
