Rebirth of the Viking King

Emma attaches great importance to this rare scientific expedition experience. In the girl's mind, this is a precious journey that even if you have money, you may not be able to get it. (After all, there are very few lords like Loki who have no trouble wandering around the Arctic Circle)

In this era when 99% of human beings have never left their hometown, she does not think that she will encounter another opportunity to enter the Arctic Circle for scientific research in her life.

So she hardly ever slept.

If Aunt Valrhona hadn't stuffed food into her mouth several times, Loki was even worried that she would faint from hypoglycemia.

Time passed slowly in an aimless S-shaped curve.

Twenty days later, when nearly half of the fresh water on the ship was about to be consumed, and Rocky began to think about whether to return for the first time, the observer on the main mast suddenly rang the warning bell.

**

Night had fallen by this time. Holding the oil lamp high and walking out of the captain's cabin, Loki saw a large number of crew members gathered on the left side of the three-masted ship. The crew's eyes focused on a black reef. Looking from a distance, there is a cross erected in the center of the reef.

If you squint your eyes and look carefully, there seems to be a bloody corpse hanging upside down on the cross!

The crew fell silent. The ship is still quite far away from the reef. The only Holy Bishop of the "Holy Light Pathway" brought out by Loki this time was unable to reach such a far distance due to his sequence level.

After much thought, Loki decided to go alone. But how could explorer Emma let go of this rare experience. After she pulled out the short sword she was wearing and almost threatened her life, Loki had no choice but to agree to the living Buddha's request.

After all, that thing didn't look like a living thing at all.

After putting down a light wooden boat on the left string of the three-masted ship, the two of them rowed nearly a hundred meters on the cold sea before finally landing on the reef.

"Let me go over first, at least wait until I am sure that the thing is not a living thing, and then you can go over. This is okay!"

Emma nodded helplessly.

Loki held his hurricane lantern high and moved forward cautiously. As a time traveler who has been baptized by various zombie movies, he is much more alert to corpses than the Tu tribe residents in this plane. After advancing for more than 20 meters, he finally stood in front of the cross. Looking closer, he found that the person tied to the cross was a living person whose whole body was almost frozen!

He was completely naked, but there were no obvious wounds on his body. This man's figure is extremely thin, and it is not yet clear whether this is due to his own thinness or whether it is caused by drying out after death. His body was covered with a thin layer of snowflakes, and Loki reached out to wipe it away, revealing the skin under the snowflakes.

That skin is actually dark brown!

(If my memory is correct, why does this man look so similar to the Indian from the American continent in my memory?!)

After wiping away the frost and snowflakes covering his body, Loki found that this man's body temperature was unusually cold. When more skin was exposed, he saw that his skin was painted with many patterns composed of black, white, and red colors. There were black unknown metal objects hanging on his ears and lips. Auricles and lip studs.

That's right, according to the description of the Mayan civilization and the Aztec civilization in the documentary, the Americans of this era should have looked like this.

But the American continent is separated from here by the vast Atlantic Ocean! How were these strange-looking Indians transported to this uninhabited Norwegian Sea? ?

Emma Waldorf could no longer control the excitement in her heart. However, when he saw that face covered with chalk, she immediately lost her voice and said three words:

"Living sacrifice?!"

"What is a living sacrifice?" Loki turned around and asked.

Emma walked to Loki's side and hurriedly pulled him away from the South American native.

"This is a living sacrifice!"

"Everyone of them is alive!" Emma said in a deep voice, "According to the records of the Royal Academy of Sciences in Constantinople, there is a strange civilization in the distant New World. Everyone in this civilization is born to be the chosen one. By."

"This group of people all start from Sequence Nine after they are born. And this Sequence Nine is a living sacrifice!"

In this plane, the crazy monks of the Holy Bishop have already discovered the American continent on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean in order to preach. In the previous life, human civilization’s records of the American continent only began in 1492 when Columbus discovered the New World.

How did the Native Americans live in the 7th century AD? Archaeologists can only rely on the ancient ruins and fragments excavated by underground archeology to trigger associations. However, in this life, a Native American was placed in front of him.

"You said this thing is alive??"

Loki doubted this statement. According to Xiao Lu's records in his handbook, he did mention that after sailing into the Great Cold Sea (that is, the Norwegian Sea), they would leave coordinates along the way.

If this living man crucified on the cross is the coordinates they left behind, he hung on this cross without eating or drinking for nearly 50 years. Even if he is a god, I'm afraid he will starve to death.

"'Living sacrifices' are a completely different species from normal humans." Emma said seriously, not daring to be careless. "They are used in various ways. In addition to being sacrificed to the feathered serpent, the god believed by the Mayans, In addition to gods, it is said that 'living sacrifices' are also very useful in daily life."

"According to the records of the Royal Academy of Sciences, living sacrifices are between animals and plants. They only need very little water and sunlight to survive. High-sequence living sacrifices can even endure the heat and cold without eating or drinking. To work in places that would be intolerable to normal humans.”

"There is also a theory that these things can be used as nourishment for the gods. The gods in the old days especially liked to eat some high-sequence living sacrifices."

Emma's voice was low, but Loki felt a chill in his ears. Be brave enough to lift the axe. He stepped forward and gently opened the eyelids of the "living sacrifice" and held the hurricane lantern closer for a closer look.

Under his eyelids, there was a pale eyeball. However, just one second later, a pale golden cat-like vertical pupil rolled out from the other side of the eyeball!

The living sacrifice slowly opened its eyes

The next second, its mouth opened into a shape that was almost out of proportion to its head, and then its voice vibrated, and a low roar came from the depths of its dry throat!

Mortals cannot use the vibration of their Adam's apple to produce such a penetrating sub-forte sound. The vocalization of the living sacrifice obviously uses another law. Loki, who was the first to be affected by this sound wave, felt that every cell in his body seemed to be vibrating under the influence of this sound wave.

The sound of the living sacrifice changed from a humming bass to a high pitch in just a few seconds. This sound wave traveled an extremely long distance in an instant at a speed of 380 meters per second in the empty sea without people.

About a minute later, a scream came from the other side of the distant sea!

After another minute, there was another sound from behind.

Waves of screams resounded across the sky, spreading farther and farther, even using sound waves to point out a direction for Loki.

At this time, he finally understood the purpose of this living sacrifice.

The array of these things was actually used by the ancients for positioning!
