Creating a Sandbox World

On the deserted island, facing Lin Tuo's questioning, the captain of the Sea Clan who called himself Peya immediately explained.

Things are also very simple.

According to Peia, the sea people have lived in this stormy sea for generations, and the entire vast sea area is their home.

It's just that with the gradual expansion of human footprints, the living range of the sea people has gradually shifted from the vicinity of the Nine Dalian Islands in the central area of ​​the two continents to deeper.

Occasionally encounter humans on weekdays.

But because of the inability to communicate, in the early years, after trying to contact and failing, the sea tribes gradually avoided humans instinctively, and the understanding between the two tribes was limited to the legendary stage.

Compared with the chaos of human society, the life of the Sea Clan is simpler and many times more monotonous.

The entire group, every individual, will have mastered the racial talent since birth, which is similar to the ability of a wizard.

It's just that the abilities of the Sea Clan are extremely unified. Compared with the complex and changeable abilities of the wizards, each Sea Clan has almost the same talent.

That is water elemental magic.

The shape of the water element can be changed arbitrarily to achieve various wonderful effects.

These bubbles on the ground are one kind.

Because of this bug ability, the Sea Clan doesn't have any natural enemies. Their daily routine is to find food, bask in the sun, explore the ocean, and collect interesting items.

However, they also have problems.

The biggest problem is the annual food crisis.

According to Peia, once spring comes every year, a kind of wildly multiplying fish, which is the largest source of food for sea people, will migrate to the mainland as a whole.

Well, it can be understood as a seasonal migration behavior similar to migratory birds.

The migration of these fishes will cause the entire sea tribe to fall into a food crisis of up to 2-3 months. Generally speaking, they will reserve food in advance to survive this period of time.

But last season, due to some accidents, the food reserves of the entire group were seriously insufficient. It is foreseeable that everyone may go hungry in the next few months.

According to the usual practice, every time this happens, the ethnic group will hold a begging sacrifice to worship the gods and pray for food. According to the legend of the Haizu, the gods love humans.

Therefore, in order to please the gods, every time they sacrifice, the sea people will collect as much as possible human-related creations as sacrifices.

The team led by Peia was one of the many teams sent out to collect the sacrifice materials.

...

Respected human wizards, we also accidentally discovered the books piled up on this island. At first, we didn't dare to move them, but after observing for a while, there were no traces of humans around, so...so...

Speaking of this, the sea tribe named Peia was obviously a little embarrassed.

Is that so... Lin Tuo understood clearly, and immediately stopped threatening them, and smiled, It seems that it is really a misunderstanding.

Yes! Yes! A group of sea chickens nodded like pecking at rice, and their frantically flapping tails stopped.

As if to show their sincerity, they also waved their hands at the same time, as if sensing something, and immediately, the round blisters disintegrated into water droplets one after another, meaning that everything was returned to its original owner.

Originally, the matter could end here, but after thinking about it, Lin Tuo didn't let them go, but said slowly:

Speaking of which, this is the first time I've visited the depths of the Sea of ​​Storms, and I'm quite curious, especially for you, it's the first time I've heard about the festival of 'Begging Sacrifice'.

Can you talk about it in detail? Is it possible that offering sacrifices to the gods can really get food?

This aspect is out of curiosity in my heart.

In addition, because of Nightmare, Lin Tuo is now more sensitive to these things involving gods.

Ah, speaking of this...it's actually not very clever,

Seeing that the misunderstanding was cleared up, Peiya relaxed a lot, and explained seriously, This festival originated from a legend of our family.

It is said that thousands of years ago, when the people of the tribe were in turmoil, there would be food from the sky at a fixed time every day... It was a gift from the gods to protect our weak ancestors.

However, I have participated many times, and I am not very spiritual. Some old people said that it is because the eyes of the gods have left, and the small sea people can't attract His attention...

Having said that, Peiya's face also became depressed, and her two wing-like ears drooped softly.

... On the opposite side, Lin Tuo felt a little complicated when he heard this.

However, the depressed expression lasted only a few seconds, and Peia became excited again:

However, this year is very different.

Oh? Why? Lin Tuo asked curiously.

Paya said seriously: Because just yesterday, we heard the voice of the god again. Although we couldn't quite understand what he said, it at least proved that he didn't really leave.

Originally, the begging sacrifice was held in a few days, but the patriarch said that this is a rare opportunity for thousands of years.

Taking advantage of the eyes of the gods on this world again, perhaps, this begging sacrifice can attract His attention... That's why we came out to collect sacrifices in such an urgent manner.

No wonder...it turned out to be my fault.

That is to say, how could it be so coincidental to come in on a random day and hit a festival again. When the No. 1 sandbox came to catch up with the god worship ceremony, this time I came to the sea and ran into the begging sacrifice again.

It turned out that the holding date was temporarily changed.

Well, it's all here, isn't it appropriate to be empty-handed... Do you want to help them?

With these thoughts in mind, Lin Tuo looked at Peya, a sea tribe with fighting spirit and anticipation, and said with a smile:

Very interesting knowledge. I wonder when the begging ceremony will be held? Can I observe it?

Of course! The patriarch loves human knowledge, and it would be great to know that there is a powerful wizard who can talk to us to participate in the festival.

Peya excitedly said: The ceremony will be held at noon tomorrow, and the place is on a nearby sea. If it is convenient for you, you can go underwater with us and watch the ceremony in advance.

No, I still have some things to deal with, so I won't bother you.

However, I am really interested in begging offerings. I will stay on this island until tomorrow. If it is convenient, can I invite you to lead the way tomorrow morning?

Lin Tuo smiled.

As for going into the water... entering the gathering places of these sea clans... let's forget it.

Although I am really curious about their level of civilization development, the problem is that Lin Tuo can't swim... He can't put on a diving suit and go down with an oxygen cylinder, right?

Well, maybe these sea people will have a way, but this will only increase the danger. Even if these lives seem harmless to humans and animals, they cannot be taken lightly.

Once it enters the water and encounters danger, the main body is too late to rescue.

Therefore, just to be cautious, Lin Tuo politely declined.

That's it, it's okay! The patriarch definitely welcomes you, um... If there is really an accident, I will let you know tomorrow.

Peyah agreed happily at first, then realized it immediately, and added another sentence.

After speaking, the two sides bid farewell to each other, and the sea tribe team flicked their tails, swam across the beach, jumped into the sea with a plop, and disappeared quickly.

...

Hoo hoo hoo...

Watching the other party leave, Lin Tuo was finally the only one left on this desolate island.

The salty sea breeze blows from a distance, and the waves beat on the beach.

Lin Tuo walked away for a while, and then temporarily put this matter behind him. If the sacrifice is held tomorrow, there is still plenty of time.

In contrast... He silently gathered the bags and boxes of books on the ground together, then dragged a warm and round stone, and sat down.

Well, let's concentrate on sorting out the books next, let me see... what is the first one that is drawn...

Muttering, Lin Tuo nimbly opened the button of the wooden box at his feet, looked at the thick leather books that were stacked in a mess, and randomly took out a book from it:
