Chapter 313 The Legend of Thomastown and the Evil Spirit
Time flies and the end of the fall has arrived.
The weather is already slightly cold, and a massive autumn rain suddenly hits Tomstown, the first colony established by the kingdom of Pharretis in the northern part of the new continent.
Fortunately.
In order to cope with the extremely frequent and strange weather of this continent wind and rain, this newly built colonist city far from home has already done a complete municipal construction. Well-functioning drainage facilities allow residents to travel without having to wade through water.
It was raining heavily.
Swishing
The rustling of sugar maples whose leaves have turned into red, hides the rows of buildings that are very rich in Phaletis style by the roadside.
However, unlike the more stone-clad Phaletis, most of the houses are made of locally sourced wood.
The forest resources of the new continent are extremely rich. The indigenous people’s ability to transform nature is very limited, and they believe in all things have spirits. They believe that there is a river, a mountain, a tree, and a stone on this land. All have Soul Spirit and natural spirit sojourn.
So the overwhelming majority place maintains the most primordial natural features, and the sturdy trees that can be used to build houses are almost everywhere.
Most of the houses are made of spruce, fir and pine. The material is lighter, and it is also easy to process by pioneers who are not rich in manpower and craftsmen, and it is warm in winter and cool in summer.
Obviously after nearly a hundred years of development, the colonists on this land have learned how to adapt to the living environment here, and they seem to be living pretty well!
In the quayside of the colonial city.
The only tavern, the Fox, Badger, and Honey Tavern, was packed.
The sudden heavy rain made dock workers, sailors, and plantation managers have nothing to do and gathered here.
The “Fox, Badger, and Honey Tavern” is certainly a hit, with mellow rum, sweet beer, the freshest fruits and beef, and beautiful, sexy girls.
dong dong dong dong dong dong
On the stage in the middle of the pub.
A beautiful young girl with darker skin than the orthodox white-skinned Niemans of the civilized country, but lighter skin than the native brown-skinned natives, is accompanied by an aboriginal musician. Drums, joyfully twisting waist and dancing exotic dances.
She has red parrot feathers on her head, brightly colored signature fabrics around her waist, and ornaments made of animal teeth on her wrists and ankles.
The whole body is full of exotic and wild beauty, with wheat-colored skin that fits the aesthetics of the men present, just like a hunting Goddess who came out of the forest!
pa! pa!
The girl turned her body and clapped her palms lightly. There was not much cloth on her body. In the dance with a great range of movements, her slender waist and slender thighs It is always challenging the fragile nerves of the men in the tavern.
Ticking ticking
The sweat dripped from the girl’s body.
The drinkers in the room couldn’t help but get hot, took a fiercely sip of the wine glass in front of them, and then greeted the waiter to serve the wine again.
Obviously nothing else, just the extra money from the wine sold today is a lot of money.
However, no matter how beautiful things come to an end, the drum beats fast and stops abruptly at the most peak.
In the eyes of the audience.
The beautiful girl blew a few kisses to these “financial resources”, and walked off the stage lightly with her slender and soft waist twisted.
“How is it? Does it look good?”
“It looks good!”
“Unfortunately, you can’t see it or touch it. If you dare to put a Mastizo If you take the girl back, your father is afraid to kill you.”
“嘁—! Do you have to take it back?”
In the corner of the tavern, Alwin dressed in casual clothes The two of you and Milan tasted the special maple sugar beer here, and watched the charming dance of the beautiful girl full of exotic flavors.
The exhaustion of the long-distance voyage at sea seemed to be swept away, and Milan also expressed deep contempt for Alwin’s extremely conservative “view of love”!
“Can’t we have a romantic love without getting married?
Pedant”
However, Milan is just a hero, Never thought of putting it into action.
The Mastizo, a word originally derived from Cyrus, refers generally to the white-skinned Niemantes of the old continent, and the brown-skinned native Atrians or blacks of the new continent A hybrid descendant between the Anuma people of the skin.
In the old continent, such Mastizo people are very rare, but in the new continent that has been colonized for a hundred years, the Southern Continent, which has been colonized for two hundred years, is everywhere.
At present, if born in an aristocratic family in the old continent, this kind of child will hardly have the right of inheritance, and it is more impossible to be recognized by the upper class.
And because of their special living environment, they who live in the new continent have gradually become an important part of the colonial ruling order, and even some lucky ones have become one of the colonial managers. member.
Of course, it must be noted that most of these hybrids are the offspring of male Niemans and female natives.
In the colony of Phaletis.
Nemansts from the old continent, Creoles born in the new continent to white parents, mixed Mastizo and pure brown indigenous Atrians People, like the caste system in Alwin’s previous life, together constitute the social hierarchy here.
However, the Pharetis and Tulip colonies were better.
If you go to the kingdom of Cyrus, the territories that occupy the vast area in the central and southern parts of the new continent, you will find that the pure native Atrians are few and far between.
Because they are carrying out an extremely cruel policy of genocide!
A large number of male natives were driven into plantations and mines, where they performed all kinds of heavy manual labor and became consumables. They would die of exhaustion in just a few years.
In the land where they live, there are a large number of adaptable and tenacious Anuma people who have been continuously filled in through triangular trade, and have gradually replaced the position of the indigenous Atrians.
Of course, this difference does not mean that the tulip colonists were kinder than Cyrus.
From Alwin’s point of view, this is just a temporary compromise, and there is no essential difference between the two!
“You said that there will be surprises in this tavern, don’t you mean this? It’s not bad, but it can’t be called a surprise, right?”
” Gudu! Don’t worry, I still have confidence in this simple prophecy.”
Drinking another gulp of cool beer for himself, Milan patted his chest and assured.
tone barely fell , then I heard the chatter of a group of lumberjacks next to me. After drinking some wine, the group of people seemed to be very talkative:
“Hey! It was really hot just now.
How about we take turns telling the horror stories that happened around us? Let everyone cool off.”
“Okay! I’ll come first, I’ll come first!
I’m going to tell a horrific tale from my grandfather about a ‘Deer Bone God’, a ‘Vengeful Spirit’!”
Another lumberjack in overalls The worker tone barely fell, and Alwin seemed to have felt a sudden cold wind blowing around him.
“Hey–, a continent that believes in all things have spirits seems a little wicked!”
The two looked at each other.
Heard the first terrifying weirdness coming to the new continent from the lumberjack!
Combined with their extraordinary knowledge, they also restored a relatively real “weird” image.
The origin is related to the colonists.
Nearly a hundred years ago, an indigenous tribe who worshipped the new continent primordial Death God Wuhao sacrificed all the souls of the tribe to the “civilized people” from afar. This Death God.
Then.
Intense resentment has spawned a terrifying avenger among the bones of thousands of people in the entire tribe!
It wears a dirty deerskin tabard, with the skull of a bighorned elk on its head, and holds an obsidian saw sword and an obsidian lance.
Riding under the crotch is a bone warhorse studded with worn ropes and caltrops, and capable of spitting fire star from its muzzle. Wandering all day long in the vast wilderness of the continent, killing all the “civilized people” that appeared in front of it.
Not afraid of blade, spear, sword, halberd or musket and artillery, it is a real evil spirit, unstoppable Undying and Inextinguishable!
Even if it is killed by a high-ranking clergyman with infinite Holy Power, he will come back after a few years or a dozen years, and bloodbath any “civilized person” settlement he sees.
apart from this, a “story” told by another worker also caught their attention.
The haunted wraith church.
The location is just a few dozen kilometers north of Thomas Town.
Though Thomas Town was the first settlement established by Pharretis, it had failed more than a dozen times before.
Either because of insufficient supplies, or because of disease, or because of native raids, or because of the newly established settlements, the stars and clouds are quickly scattered.
It was originally the Goddess Church built by the first colonists to come here, but as the colony was destroyed by the native counterattack, the church was abandoned.
However, it is said that the original intention of the original cleric to build this church was actually to seal a terrifying wraith, but as the church was abandoned, the seal there has also expired, and now it has become a terrifying wraith. A wraith church full of ghost cultivator women.
After no living people entered there, they were able to leave alive
Probably aroused by their topic, and the wine table next to it looked like the middle age of the tobacco plantation steward person approached with interest and asked, “Haven’t you heard the legend of Roanoke Island?”
“Roanoke Island?”
Alwin and Milan stretched out their ears at the same time.
That was also the story before the successful establishment of Tomstown, another failed attempt by Pharretis.
The first colonists who landed on Roanoke Island were ill-prepared, lacking the ability to survive on their own, not even planting skills.
In desperation, they can only send immigration chiefs back to China for help.
But just after half a year.
In the evening when the immigrant leader returned with his reinforcements, he was already approaching his village quickly.
The fire beacon calling for help in the village suddenly ignited!
When they entered the village without stopping
The plantation steward stared at green eyes, glanced at the faces of everyone who was listening, and continued in a low voice:
p>
“There are oil lamps on the dining table and the food on the stove is still hot, but there are 116 people in the village, including 11 children, 88 men, 17 women, and all the livestock and poultry they raised have disappeared!
They were only in a tree outside the village and saw a word Croatoan inscribed there!”
When he uttered the last word, he didn’t know Why, everyone present felt a cold wind blowing from the back of their necks at the same time.
Woo-
