Chapter 644: The Myth of Shark Transformation
Speaking of "Marinti".
We have to talk about the shark-turned fishman, the "Marinti Kingdom" among the three kingdoms.
When it comes to the "Marinti Kingdom", we have to talk about the "Penatulli Sect" of the shark-turned fish man.
Extending this way is too complicated, and I'm afraid it won't be explained clearly in a while.
Simply put, shark-shaped fish man is also a highly civilized race. They not only have their own culture and society, but also have their own beliefs and religions.
They also have their own creation myths and the gods they believe in.
It is said that at the beginning of the creation of the world, there was an endless ocean between the world, without any land.
Until the world changes, the sea and land change, the sea surface falls, and some seabed rises and protrudes out of the sea surface, forming land and islands...
This is normal to humans, and there is nothing wrong with it!
But the problem is that in the eyes of the shark-shaped fish man, this is just that the sea is sick, so it has grown evil "tuberculosis"!
This is also the reason why they hate land so much and hate the various "parasites" that breed on land and breathe the air.
And at the beginning of heaven and earth, three eggs were born in the ocean.
After the first egg broke, the first god, "eating", hatched.
He is like a super giant octopus covered with countless legs. He is immortal and reborn. Various creatures in the ocean are the lives evolved from His broken tentacles.
After the second egg ruptured, the second god, "Devourer", hatched.
He is like a giant shark, full of hunger forever. Once hatched, he feeds on the "eatings". Tentacles that break during His eating process become various marine creatures.
After the third egg ruptured, the third god "teacher" hatched.
He looks like a female shark-turned fish man. He killed the "eater" as soon as he was born to reincarnate and reproduced the entire shark-turned fish man group...
The shark-turned fishman believes that these three creation gods are one, that is, their main god "Pernatuli", only teaches sentient beings in different images, representing devouring and being eaten, death and eternal life, and symbolizing a complete cycle of reincarnation, so they call their main god the "Trinitual God".
This concept is somewhat similar to the Yan Kingdom's "one Qi transforms three Qings" in the process of "one Qi transforms and three Qings".
Of course, the creation myth of the Shark-turned Fishman is more than just that. If you want to explain it in detail, you must compile the "The Creation Myth of the Shark-turned Fishman" or "The Past and Present Life of the Trinity God - Pernatuli".
So you only need to know roughly the origins and outs of the history of shark-turned fish man.
The shark-turned fishmen believe in both the "Trinituary God-Penaturi" and the three incarnations of His "eating, devouring, and teaching".
In their long history, different beliefs and different reproductive methods have led the shark-shaped fish man to evolve into three different kingdoms, namely "Blood Spear Kingdom, Giant Fork Kingdom, and Marinti Kingdom".
Among them, the Kingdom of Blood Spear believes in the "eating", the Kingdom of Jucha believes in the "devourer", and the Kingdom of Marinti believes in the "educator".
At the same time, the shark-formed fish man in these three kingdoms also belongs to three different types, namely viviparous, oviparous and false viviparous (I will not explain in detail here).
Shark-shaped people believe that male shark-shaped man plays the role of "devourer", while female shark-shaped man plays the role of "teacher".
Therefore, in the society of shark-forming fish man, all male shark-forming fish man are warriors and hunters, while female shark-forming fish man is responsible for reproduction and raising and teaching offspring.
Shark-turned man is a society with higher religion than regimes, but only female Shark-turned man can become priests.
Although the three different kingdoms have their own different religions, the three sects obey the leadership of the supreme sect "Penaturi".
There is a very strange phenomenon in the middle.
No matter which kingdom or the reproductive shark-shaped fish man, there is a certain chance of a mysterious mutation.
That is, in every ten thousand shark-formed fish man eggs, a male shark-formed fish man cub with four arms will appear.
They regard this mutated cub as the incarnation of the Lord God's "Devourer" in the world. Once discovered, they will be sent to the Supreme Sect for special education and cultivation. The ultimate survival of the God's chosen one will become the "appointed warriors" of the Supreme Sect.
Similarly, in every ten thousand shark-turned fishman eggs, a female shark-turned fishman cub with a appearance that looks like a sea elves may appear. They will be regarded as the incarnation of the Lord God's "teacher" in the world and will be cultivated into the "Supreme priest".
At the same time, the male shark-turned fish man had a certain chance of awakening and growing two new arms in the battle of bloody violence, and became the acquired divine candidate.
Although they cannot be sent to the Supreme Sect as the innate God-Selected Ones, they have the qualifications to become a nobleman of shark-turned fishman since childhood.
He also has the identity of "Wang Family Guard". While serving as the guard of the Shark-turned Fishman noble, he also automatically becomes the candidate for the other party's successor, and is ready to replace the other party to become a new noble, prince, or even the Shark-turned Fishman king at any time...
As the mermaid leader mentioned the "Penatuli Sect" and "Marinti Priest", the white jade seal triggered the memory flash of the "primate memory bank" in a stress-like manner, and obtained these information about the history and religion of the shark-shaped fish man.
Even if the memory flashed, the White Jade Seal was read for a long time before she figured out the whole story.
And the female shark-turned fishman who looked like a sea elf in front of her was obviously the supreme priest of the "Penatulli Sect".
But because of the breaking of the "Eberron World", it is obvious that it cannot obtain a complete sectarian inheritance.
However, there is no problem to become the "Marinti Priest" among the descendants of the shark-turned fishmen in the A1 fragment space.
You should know that the shark-turned fish man is a matriarchal society and a social structure of separation of politics and the country.
Therefore, according to the proportion of every 10 female shark-turned fishmen, a low-level priest was born, a senior priest was born in every 10 low-level priest, and a main priest was born in every 10 senior priests.
Among the "Marinti" shark-formed fishmen with a population of no more than 10,000, there should be only such "Marinti Priest" (the number of female shark-formed fishmen is only about one-tenth of that of males).
As one of the few priests who master the knowledge of shark-turned fish.
This Marinti, who looked like a sea elves, seemed very calm even if he was captured.
Even if it was escorted to the enemy leader, it had no expression of fear at all, and even a cunning light flashed in its eyes.
