《Rise of America 1620》Chapter 7: It is Good to Try
Advertisement
The old matriarch was lying on a wooden bed in the center, with thick animal furs underneath.
Several Indian women, under the instruction of a shaman dressed like a peacock, kept circling around the old patriarch shaking all over.
After about five or six circles, these Indian women will stretch their arms flat and began to swing back and forth in front of the old patriarch lying flat.
William, this is a kind of Indian tribal "witchcraft", that is used to get rid of the disease.
If someone had used this method on William, William would have used his old fist to deal with it. But in 1620, the Indians on the American continent were very interested in witchcraft.
The shaman was chanting something that even the tribesmen couldn't understand, raising his hands and stamping his feet, his voice rising and falling with the movements.
"This is just a big dance, we also have this kind of thing in Northeast China, it's much more interesting than what this wizard is doing.
The wizard's performance, a little naive Steven raised his hand and touched his nose, said in a small voice.
"The wizard is a very good person.
The company's main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to the public.
Steven laughed and shut his mouth, but from his expression, he did not see the wizard's performance.
William's mind wondered, this time and space trader within the genetic man, even jumping God are ah.
This is also a bit too amazing.
Artido did not notice the small movements of William's four people, his gaze has been placed on the father who has begun some coma, not a moment away.
His father is the leader of the tribe, if something goes wrong he can continue to be the leader of his father, but he will not curse his father because of this relationship.
He knew very well that he was too young.
He was worried that if something happened to his father, he wouldn't be able to carry on the power of the tribe.
At the same time, there are also opponents in the tribe that he, Artido, may not be able to subdue.
Across from Artido, a stout, bald man with a string of bone necklaces around his neck sat there with a grim gaze.
His name is "Black Bear" and he is the bravest warrior of the tribe. Many of the tribe's young people worship him as an idol.
The black bear, often because of some of the philosophy of the issue, is often the father of the conflict.
The good thing is that the father's prestige is very high, which can suppress the black bear.

But if the father is no longer there, the black bear is likely to make trouble ah.
Artido's concern is not unreasonable, because the black bear's popularity is also not.
So without his father's suppression, Black Bear has become the new chief, so where will he take the tribe?
Artido, Black Bear has never been a big fan of the "white skins", he thinks they are all bad guys. He did not agree to deal with the white skins, and even led the warriors of the tribe to war with the white skins.
Unfortunately, Black Bear's idea was completely rejected by his father.
Because of his father's prestige, the young people of the clan were able to suppress this idea.
However, Black Bear's idea was not without a market in the clan.
If William knew what Black Bear was thinking and what he wanted to do, he would have applauded it.
William is very happy to see the emergence of an angry Indian.
In fact, Artido also understands the "black bear", who was killed by the "white skin". It's no wonder he hates the White Walkers so much, it's the revenge of killing his son.
His daughter was also injured in the fall when she strayed into the defensive zone of the white skins' camp and was unable to understand their warnings of the weapons that would make a noise.
Now his little girl, the wound has completely ulcerated, if not treated, it may not be able to save the leg.
The leg will not be saved or a small thing, the most worrying thing is that the lovely Emma will die.
The "black bears" are the two children who are now dead. If his daughter dies again, he will really go crazy.
Now that his father is in such a situation, there is no guarantee that "Black Bear" will not become the chief of the clan after his father's death and take the clan to take revenge.
In fact, Artido understands the Black Bears very well, but as Father said, the White Skins' weapons are really powerful. Moreover, they live behind a wooden fence, which the Mohican warriors will have to pay a lot of money to conquer.
Then, after conquering the stronghold of the "white skins", the Mohicans themselves would suffer a lot of casualties. The next step is not guaranteed to cause some rival tribes to spy, so sometimes personal revenge is more important than the tribe.
It is also because of his father's consideration that Artido is so worried.
Unfortunately, "Black Bear" has been blinded by hatred, he simply does not care so much.
Now he is waiting, waiting for his father to breathe ......

For the Mohican tribe in some things, William can not care at all, because it has nothing to do with him.
At this time William stole a glance at the old patriarch lying in the center, his eyes are full of blood, while his lips are a little blue.
He did not this old chief of the Mohican tribe, in the end, is a disease.
At this moment, the Indian women around the old chief picked up some plants from the ground and began to light them. Those plants emitted thick white smoke and smoked the old chief's body.
The man is dying, and you still use smoke! This is not slow enough to die ah.
William was spitting in his mind.
"Artido, what is your father's disease, why don't you tell me about it? I have medicine here that may be able to cure your father.
William looked at these guys in the "life", and finally could not help but pull Artido, to whisper to him.
The reason why William said so is that he can buy penicillin on the "time and space trader" reliance on it.
In his opinion, this old matriarch may be sick in the winter, is the result of a heavy cold is not treated, the body has the cause of inflammation.
Or a wound on the body inflammation, resulting in such a situation in leather now.
If he is right, he can also make good karma.
Even if the blindfold is not correct, it does not matter, leave it to the shaman.
Although the Indians of this era are very barbaric, as long as they identify you are theirs, then they even because of you and other tribes to war is also not hesitant.
This is also the Indians a very admirable point for William.
Then again, William also took into account another problem, that is, if this is really the New York area. Then it was important for him to have a good relationship with the Mohican tribe.
With the friendship of the outer Mohican tribe, he could develop slowly on the New York waterfront.
Before following Artido back to the tribe, he had heard from Artido that the Mohican tribe was the largest tribe in the area, with a population of 13,000.
For William now, the Mohican tribe is a super "thick leg", if he does not hug that is brain-damaged.
A tribe of 13,000 people, in this area, is the absolute boss.
The surrounding small Indian tribes, that does not dare to offend them. At the same time, the British are also very close to the Mohegan tribe, which half dare not neglect.
Of course, William also, the British pulling the Mohican tribe is not good intentions, they just let the Mohican tribe make the first bird, consume their strength.
For the development of the Mohican tribe, William or some of them.
More than a hundred years later, a large Mohican tribe, in the British and French Seven Years War when the extinction.
But no matter what, that was more than a hundred years later, now the Mohican tribe is the rightful leader of this area.
"My father's body was hot and cold the other day, and after a few days of hard work, he became like this, occasionally talking nonsense at night. Artido replied in a whisper, and then his eyes flashed, "You have medicine in your hand? The actual fact is that you are a shaman of your tribe, not to skip words.
The company's main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to its customers.
Well, they are hot and cold, and they talk nonsense at night.
After listening to Artido's answer, William's heart understood a lot better.
According to Artido, this was a case of a bad cold that had not been treated properly.
God help me!
William shouted in his heart.
"My tribe's chief and shaman are both my father, so I learned this knowledge from my father. William thought up a set of words and looked at Artido seriously and said to him. "Your father's disease, which has also been seen in our tribe, needs to be treated as soon as possible or it will kill him.
A bad cold can lead to complications, and in serious cases, death, of course.
If Artido's father really had a bad cold that caused inflammation, then penicillin would really be able to treat it.
For this, William is very confident.
Penicillin in the 21st century, if it can not save an Indian matriarch who had a bad cold in 1620, it is really an international joke.
Of course, unless William's luck is really bad, this Artido's father is allergic to penicillin ...... then there is really nothing that can be done.
"Artido, if you and I, let me treat then I guarantee that your father will recover!
After a general judgment, William was very serious with Artido making a promise.
Artido pursed his lips, he should not this outsider.
But when his eyes swept over the wizard, who looked a little darker, with a sad glow in his eyes, he made a decision in his mind.
From the sorcerer's point of view, the father was looking like he was going to die.
Now let the outsider try.

Delve
Summary – Level 1: Delve is an isekai litrpg that follows an average guy who just happened to wake up in a forest one day. He wasn’t summoned to defeat the demon lord or to save the world or anything like that, at least as far as he can tell. The only creature there to greet him was a regular old squirrel. Soon enough, he meets other people, only to discover that he can’t speak the language, and that not everybody immediately trusts random pajama-wearing strangers they met in the middle of the wilderness. Things generally go downhill from there, at least until the blue boxes start appearing. Delve is a story about finding your way in a new, strange, and dangerous world. It’s about avoiding death, figuring out what the heck is going on, and trying to make some friends along the way. It’s not about getting home, so much as finding a new one. Did I mention that there will be math? Summary – Level 2: Okay, but what are you in for, really? Well, this story is supposed to be realistic, or at least, as realistic as a fantasy litrpg can be. The main character doesn’t instantly become an all-powerful god and murder-hobo his way across the universe. Delve is, at its heart, a progression fantasy, but that progression is meant to feel earned. The numbers in this story actually mean something. Everything is calculated, and if you find a rounding error, I expect you to tell me about it. That said, if math isn’t your cup of tea, there is plenty more that the story has to offer. Characters are meant to feel real, and progression isn’t only about personal power; it’s also about allies, connections, and above all, knowledge. Figuring out how the system works is a significant theme. ... What, you want more details? Okay, fine, but this is going to get a bit spoiler-y. Are you sure? Yes! Really sure? I mean, this summary is practically half as long as the first chap– Now! Okay, okay! The main character becomes a magic user, but he takes a route that is not very popular in adventurer culture, namely that of a support. There is a full magic system with various spells, skills, and abilities, but our MC decides that aura magic is the way to go, and that the only stat worth investing in is mana regeneration. Most people at the Adventurer’s Guild think that this makes him a bit of a dumbass, but he’s playing the long game. We’ll see how that works out for him, won’t we? Because of his build, the MC levels up fast, at least compared to normal people. There are no cheats, though, and he is limited in other ways. There are some clear and pretty obvious downsides to his build. That’s what makes it fun, no? Morals? Our MC has them. Again, we’ll see how that works out for him. Realism, remember? Would you be okay with killing someone and looting their body? I sure hope not. POV? The focus is on the main character, but there will be occasional varying perspectives from people around him, or involved in the events related to the main plot. It isn’t going to jump all over the place. Tech is standard medieval stasis. No smartphones, but the MC does have a technical background. Computers and their programming might be involved. There might even be a bit of uplifting down the road, who knows? Anyway, it isn’t the focus. He isn’t going to invent the gun in chapter 1 and change the face of warfare. Romance is not a major focus. Friendships are more the name of the game, though there will be some characters in romantic relationships. There is exploration, though not as much of the geographical nature as you might expect. It is more about exploration of the system and the culture. The pace is slow and detailed, sometimes verging on slice-of-life. The action is meant to be realistic and grounded in the numbers, and it is intended to have meaning beyond simply punching things until they stop moving. The general tone of the story is grey, and some parts can get quite dark. People die. Sometimes, people with names, but not anywhere near GoT level. There is plenty of light, too, though, to balance the darkness. The world is dangerous, but overcoming that danger is why we’re all here, isn’t it? Anyway, if you’ve made it this far through the summary, you clearly like words. I hope you enjoy the story! Cover by Miha Brumec Summary Updated: 2020-06-14
