Chapter 1227: Chapter 1227 – The Greatest Shaman
Chapter 1227 The Greatest Shaman
Shamanism was a primitive religion developed from prehistoric worship. At its peak, it had spread all over the world. The ancestors of East and West Siberia, Mongolia, and even Manchuria had once believed in shamanism, for a long time, the aborigines of Greenland only believed in shamanism.
However, with the invasion of immigrants and religions, most of the people in Greenland had converted to Christianity. Only some Inuit tribes in the more remote areas maintained their previous beliefs.
Unlike the major religions that were popular now, there was no great existence similar to God or Allah in Shamanism. The theoretical foundation was that everything had a spirit, the shamans in the tribe could communicate with the spirits of nature through a series of ancient seance rituals, which gave them supernatural powers such as prophecy, dream interpretation, and weather control.
In fact, the shamans were known in Tungusic as “People who dance in excitement, “and the word itself described the shamans’most common seance techniques.
After understanding the two’s origins, it wasn’t hard for Zhang Heng to understand why the Eagle had suddenly flown in from outside the window to attack him. However, according to Olai.., even shamans were rarely able to communicate with the animals around them at any time, let alone ask for their help in times of crisis.
Especially in the past few years, as more and more people turned to its teachings, shamans could feel their power waning. Many of the dream interpretation and astrology that they could do before had become more and more difficult to do, not to mention controlling the weather and communicating with animals and plants, many shamans had not been able to make a complete prediction for decades, which formed a vicious circle.

Alicia was born under such a background.
“Alicia was born at midnight, and there happened to be a big earthquake on the island. My parents said that they had never seen such a terrible earthquake in their long life. It was as if the whole world was shaking, and a huge gully appeared on the extremely solid ice field. One of the gullies happened to pass through the location of the tribe. Some people could not avoid it in time and fell into it, leaving no bones behind.
“Other than that, there was also an aurora in the sky. However, it was different from what everyone usually saw. The Aurora was blood red and the stars were very strange. My teacher Gaba’s elves told him that something bad was going to happen, so my teacher asked the people in the tribe to take out their hunting weapons and even organized a patrol team. However, the earthquake soon passed and the Aurora disappeared. Because of my teacher’s warning, many people did not dare to sleep for the whole night. The next day, everyone received the news that about 80 kilometers away from us, after the earthquake last night, Alicia’s tribe was attacked by a group of unknown people.
“Those guys’target is the newborn Alicia. Their weapons are just average. Many of them have just learned how to shoot, and some even have a harpoon that they found out of nowhere. However, everyone is crazy and fearless. Coupled with the advantage in numbers, they almost succeeded. It was then that Alicia’s teacher struck — Kunayu, the most powerful shaman of the last 200 years, the Blizzard’s controller, whose height few could reach, even in the distant past.
“People said that during that battle, she fought one against a hundred and summoned an unprecedented terrifying blizzard. She almost single-handedly turned the tide of the battle and froze all the invaders to death on this ice field. However, because Alicia was already in the arms of that group of unknown people, people thought that she was dead for sure at that time and was frozen into a popsicle along with them. However, no one expected that when they found her, although she was badly frozen, she still had a heartbeat and breathing. Therefore, Kunayu took her in as a disciple and even said that this girl who had narrowly escaped death would not only inherit her mantle in the future, but also become the greatest shaman among the Inuit.”

Song Jia was completely captivated by Olai’s story. She didn’t expect the girl beside her, Alicia, to have such a complicated story. She was like a protagonist in a TV series or a novel, although she was curious as to why Olai had suddenly become so cooperative and revealed all the secrets of the tribe, she was now completely immersed in the story, she didn’t want to interrupt the Inuit teenager’s story at all.
Zhang Heng knew what Olai was up to, because during this process, he had seen olai peeking at the window beside him more than once, then, he contacted the person in the bar who had cooperated with Olai and Alicia to put the bug into Sonja’s wallet. The Inuit teenager was probably hoping that his companions would realize something was wrong and come to save them.
However, his method of stalling time seemed a little strange. Most people would think of a way to make up some nonsense at this time. However, Olai would not lie, so he could only choose to sell his partner again.
Of course, in terms of the results, his trick did work. Although his language was simple and he did not use any rhetoric, it was precisely because of this that it had a particularly sincere feeling, furthermore, the story itself was strange and interesting enough. At least, Songjia didn’t have the heart to interrupt.
Zhang Heng had come to Greenland this time to investigate his own background. He was still in the stage of gathering clues, so he naturally wouldn’t reject the information provided by OLE. He knew that Ole still had help, but he didn’t care, he even wanted to meet with the other party later.
This was because Zhang Heng had already realized that the local shamanism in Greenland might be of great help to his future investigation, especially since these Inuit were the local tyrants here. Compared to Songjia, they had supernatural powers, obviously, they would know more. In fact, from the looks of it, they were already conducting relevant investigations. Therefore, both sides had a common goal. The only problem now was how to get the other party to cooperate with him.
After all, the first impression that both sides left each other when they first came into contact was not very good. Zhang Heng was still pointing his gun at Alicia. Even though he could use the same method to threaten Ole to continue serving him.., however, this was obviously not as good as getting the other party to sincerely help him.
Just as Zhang Heng was thinking about this problem, OLE’s expression became worse and worse. He had already told most of the story about Alicia, but there was still no news from the other side downstairs.
