Savior Simulator

The man who claimed to be possessed by the souls of his ancestors changed his name to Andre and became the leader of Pirion Village. He also revived the bloody and barbaric "headhunting" tradition.

Pep also once admired his cousin and believed in his legendary experience.

It wasn't until half a year ago that Pep witnessed the Silver Flash outbreak and was selected by Tiangong to become a trainee special police officer. Later, he assisted Tangning in investigating the Knights of the Holy Blood. Only then did he realize that his cousin was able to turn into a crocodile because he awakened after taking the hero drug. "Change" superpower.

The host of ancestral souls and the reincarnation of the crocodile god are all lies to deceive the villagers. Just like the "divine right of kings" claimed by medieval monarchs, covered with a layer of religious mythology, it can add legitimacy to the monarch's ruling position.

In this discourse context, resisting Andre the "Crocodile" is tantamount to resisting a living god. The ignorant villagers cannot muster the courage.

…

After Gao Fei, Jiang Feng, Tang Ning, Ma Tao, Ma Yun, Qi Tian and Wang Daqing came ashore, they each took "disguise potion", disguised themselves, and came to Pilion Village as reporters and folklorists. Investigate local customs and collect wood carving crafts.

Pep stows away the shrunken catamaran and leads the way.

"Brother Pep, if you bring a group of foreigners back to your hometown, will it arouse the suspicion of the local villagers?" Gao Fei asked.

"Silent Pep" shook his head, indicating that he didn't need to worry.

"Brother Pep was a tour guide before he became a Tiangong special policeman." Tangning explained for him. "In the early years, he often wandered around towns with many tourists, such as Agatz and Meraoqi, selling homemade homemade products to tourists. If tourists are interested in the customs of the Asmat people, he will take a group trip to Pirion Village to earn some hard money.”

"Everyone in the village knows that he does this for a living, and he brings tourists to visit from time to time. He has long been accustomed to it. It was only in the past two years that he gave up his career as a tour guide."

"Is it because after becoming a special police officer, I was too busy with work and couldn't spare time to take tour groups?" Gao Fei guessed.

Tangning glanced at Pep first and saw that he had no intention of hiding anything, so she said to Gao Fei: "There are factors in this regard, but the main reason is that there was a pervert like Andre the Crocodile in Pilion Village, and he destroyed the entire village. The village was led on an evil path. Under his influence, the villagers became more and more violent. They often had armed fights and killings with neighboring villages. It was too dangerous for tourists and was no longer suitable as a tourist attraction. "

"So that's it..." Gao Fei thought for a moment, then asked: "Has Brother Pep ever fought against Andre?"

"I beat him once." This time, Tangning didn't have to do it for him. Pep answered by himself: "I turned into a ferocious bear and defeated him, but there was a crocodile angel beside him. I hadn't tamed the spitting turkey at that time. One on two, I can only escape."

"Andre knows that you are a Tiangong special police officer?"

"He doesn't know." Pep shook his head. "I didn't reveal my identity. I pretended to be a wild bear and attacked him halfway... It's a pity that I didn't win."

"No... Brother Pep, there is only one kind of wild bear in the Asmat area, the sun bear!" Ma Yun couldn't help but complain, "No matter how you disguise it, you can't disguise the huge and ferocious bear. Pretending to be a little sun bear, unless Andre is a fool, how could he not see the flaw? "

"I don't understand this, but Andre doesn't understand it even more." Pep shrugged nonchalantly, "He is an arrogant illiterate."

"Brother Pep, in my impression, tour guides are the kind who are eloquent and good at deceiving. If a man like you, who is precious with his words, will be a tour guide... what, will he be complained by tourists? "Gao Fei asked curiously.

"I have been complained about, but some tourists also praised me for being steady and honest."

Recalling his career as a tour guide, Pep showed a rare smile on his face.

Gao Fei could tell that he missed his old life.

It's a pity that the Silver Flash outbreak changed the world, and also the peaceful life that people used to take for granted.

Regardless of whether we miss it or not, nothing can ever go back to the way it was before.

Across the pier, there is an endless wetland in front of you.

The village of Pirion sits right on the edge of the marsh.

The swamp is adjacent to the bay and belongs to the intersection zone of salt water and fresh water. Every time the tide rises, the flat land in front of you will be submerged.

In order to adapt to the wetland environment, the people living here invented a unique construction technique. They built their houses on pillars so that they would not be flooded when the tide rose. It also had the advantage of ventilation and moisture-proofing.

When the tide recedes, the houses in the village hang in mid-air, like rows of giants on stilts.

The stilt houses are made of wood. In a high-humidity environment, they will begin to rot after a maximum of four to five years and require rebuilding.

Because of this, brothers of the same family usually stay in the same family, which is called a "door".

There is only one road into the village, which is a wooden bridge that can only accommodate two feet. If you lose your footing, you will fall into the mud more than ten meters deep.

There are many crocodiles lying in the mud, baring their teeth leisurely and basking in the sun.

Even if the person who lost his footing survived the fall and wanted to climb out of the mud pit, he still had to ask the crocodiles if they would agree.

According to Pep, the reason why Pilion Village built such a single-plank bridge was to prevent enemies from breaking into the village and massacre.

Pep led the way, striding across the wooden bridge.

Gao Fei and his party followed him, tiptoeing and moving carefully, lest they accidentally fall into the mud and have close contact with the crocodiles.

At the door of every shack in the village, there were people sitting on the verandah looking curiously at the group of yellow-skinned gringos.

Seeing Gao Fei and the others' clumsy appearance when crossing the bridge, the villagers laughed loudly, revealing their teeth that were stained dark brown by tobacco and betel nut.

Living in this environment all year round, the locals have developed good agility. Even an old woman with a baby on her back can run freely on the narrow single-plank bridge.

As soon as Gao Fei and his party crossed the single-plank bridge, a naked little girl suddenly screamed, trembling violently, turned around and jumped into a ditch, trying to escape into the distance.

"You scared her, thinking you were Mbji." Pep whispered to Gao Fei.

"Asmat people have a popular concept that foreigners who break into the village are regarded as the ghosts of their ancestors, called 'Mbji', which means creatures from the world of ghosts and gods (Safan)," Tangning explained.

Everyone walked to a large house with a verandah.

The owner of this portal is a relative of Pep.

Pep said a few good words to his relatives and gave them a pile of tobacco, betel nut and plastic vats of hard liquor.

Smiling, the family took the gifts, packed up their palm sleeping mats and clothes, and left the house.
