Chapter 5 History and Legends of the Amazon
Zenonis, the goddess of the storm, is an illusory deity worshipped by the Amazonian tribes of the Nobil Islands.
Legend has it that she was a half-human, half-snake kraken with twelve arms and a pair of giant scaly bat wings.
The goddess's personality is quite moody, as varied as the weather in the Twin Seas.
The ancient Amazons believed that she lived in an abyss filled with lightning and undercurrents all year round in the depths of the Twin Seas, using her infinite divine power and ever-changing mood to influence the entire Twin Seas.
Once upon a time, it was rumored that the goddess had been seen in the depths of the Twin Seas, when she was dancing in a storm on the sea, as if she had used the rain of lightning as a curtain of water for her bath.
The tornado rose because of her, the tsunami bowed down to her, and the thunder was subdued for her.
At the same time, she was surrounded by dozens of giants with six arms, up to 100 meters tall, and various fish heads.
Each of these giants can manipulate tides and lightning, and simply standing there and doing nothing can cause a storm that could overturn an entire fleet.
They set out to the Storm Goddess to offer a wreck of gold and silver jewels and a "blanket" of dark clouds of lightning, and the Storm Goddess was among them, bathed in thunder, clothed in treasures from all over the sea, throned with multicolored coral, and feasted on the offerings of countless behemoths of the Twin Seas.
In Amazonian legend, the Goddess of Storms is the eternal ruler of the seas and the living embodiment of storms.
They "circumcised" to pay tribute to the Storm Goddess in exchange for the power of lightning, and worshipped the giant attendants as much as she adored herself.
This continued until the regularization of the world and the beginning of the invasion of hell.
When the demons begin to attack the First World, the power that the Storm Goddess has bestowed upon all the Amazons suddenly disappears, and is replaced by an endless stream of Amazonian professionals.
These professions are also capable of wielding lightning, and are as skilled with bows and arrows and javelins as the ancient Amazons.
Initially, the Amazonian tribes of the Howorth Islands reacted to these occupations in the same way as the barbarian tribes of the time, expelling the "aliens" and forbidding them to cross into the Howorth Islands.
Soon after, when the Storm Goddess's "acolytes" emerged from the abyss and began to attack and slaughter the remaining Amazonian tribes of the archipelago, their faith began to crumble rapidly.
The chased and slaughtered Amazons began to fight back, but due to the loss of the power of lightning, they were simply unable to stand up to the powerful giants.
Just as all the Amazonian tribes were about to be hunted to the end of their rope, the Amazonian Professionals who had been expelled by them returned to the Howorth Islands with reinforcements from other human kingdoms.
They helped the remaining Amazons resist the frenzied onslaught of the giants, and together with the human kingdom's professional reinforcements, they drove the remaining giants back into the abyss.
Since then, the Amazons have re-embraced the Amazonians they once considered alien, and have since sent an elite legion to help the other human kingdoms fight against the invasion of the armies of Hell.
However, although the Amazon tribes of the Howorth Islands were hunted down by the giants who became the "Storm Goddess's Acolytes", the Storm Goddess faith on the Howorth Islands was preserved after the demons were expelled from the First World.
However, the "circumcision" that was previously used to pay tribute to the goddess was completely abolished.
Today, the Storm Goddess's attendants, the giants, have become enemies of the Amazonian tribes of the Howorth Islands, and they hunt down the giants at sea in every way until they no longer dare to approach the Howorth Islands.
Since the new Amazon Professionals are as powerful as the giants who can call the wind and rain, the Amazon hunt can be considered fruitful.
Until recently, these giants had not been seen near the archipelago for hundreds of years.
The hunt for giants gradually became a ritual in the Howorth Islands rather than a true tradition of war.
However, just now, they witnessed a giant appear on the surface of the sea just a few dozen kilometers from the Howorth Islands.
What does this mean?
Are the giants of the abyss coming back?
Kane sighed, gently knocked the pipe in his hand on the table leg, and looked at Xue Hua's gradually frowning brows, he whispered with relief: "Don't worry, it's okay, the Amazons who were on the verge of despair hundreds of years ago were able to drive those giants back to the sea, and now it is not a problem to have three storm queens in charge." ”
"What's more, isn't there still you?"
"Heh... It is also said that although those giants are indeed a little troublesome, they are not difficult opponents to deal with, and I believe that the storm Valkyrie guards of the Amazons are enough to deal with it. ”
Hearing Kane's words, Xue Hua nodded, but the expression on his face still looked a little gloomy.
The state of the giant's blood just now was a bit creepy, and he was a little worried that once a large number of giants landed on the Howorth Islands, even if the Amazons killed them in time, the strange blood would be unguardable.
Xue Hua was thinking about things, Kane was also thinking about the giant, neither of them spoke, and the little Lori Aman on the side naturally didn't dare to speak.
The room fell silent for a moment, until there was a soft knock on the door.
"Who?"
Xue Hua had just finished fighting, and his subconscious vigilance had not yet been completely relaxed, and his tone inevitably carried a little murderous aura.
"Uh... Be... I... I'm the captain... The captain sent... Sent to the three adults... Deliver food ......"
"Come in." Kane glared at Xue Hua, and then said softly to the poor crew who was almost directly frightened to their knees outside the door.
Xue Hua scratched his head a little embarrassed, the level of the professional he was now disguised as high as level 67 was already as high as level 67, and this level of professional was already a god-level existence for ordinary people.
If you encounter a violent temperament, a civilian who doesn't like it casually will not even blink an eye.
Moreover, Xue Hua was not an ordinary level 67 professional, the high-level demons he killed and his status as the master of the insect swarm made him much stronger than an ordinary level 80 professional even if he inadvertently leaked out.
Such a momentum suppression, even if it is only for a short moment, is enough to directly scare ordinary people whose nerves are not strong enough......
Dingding......
The poor crew walked into the cabin in a cold sweat with a wooden tray of food and drink, and his face was as pale as a dead man's face, as if he were about to enter the mouth of a dragon......
“......”
Xue Hua covered his face, feeling even more embarrassed.
"Ahem... Put it here, and you're good to go. ”
Kane coughed dryly, asked the crew to put their things on the table, and waved at him with a pleasant face.
The crew was like an amnesty, and they turned their heads and were about to run out, but Xue Hua suddenly thought of something, and the sentence "Stop" directly made this unlucky guy almost pee his pants in fright......
"You... What else do you have... What to call ... Enjoin? There was not a trace of blood on the crew's face, and they were able to stand here and continue to speak entirely by relying on the last trace of "desire for life" in their hearts......
"How long will it take for the ship to reach the archipelago?" Anyway, it's like this, and Xue Hua doesn't bother to correct his image.
The Great Demon King is the Great Demon King... Anyway, at most, it will be circulated on this boat.
"Also... Six days to go... Big... Adult ......"
"Well, good, get out!"
"Yes!"
