Soaring Eagle
Although the opinions put forward by those wastes are very fucked up, they are not constructive at all. Sangla has never considered blood sacrifices, but letting the gods bless the battleships is a very good idea.💜😲 . cᵒpaw 🍧😎
Zul'ra called on the priests to go to Altar of Deities, pray to each of the gods, and ask them who among them could bless the battleship. Soon two gods responded, they were Akil'darah and Akil'zon.
These two gods who responded together not only have very similar names, but also have the same form. They are both eagles flying high in the sky, but Akil'zon is sacrificed to Zul'Aman, while Akil'darah is sacrificed to Jintha'Alor.
Facing the two Eagle God and Zul'ra who came together to take the call, the first thought was naturally to come together. However, it was a pity that although the two Eagle God belonged to the same sect, their personalities were incompatible and they did not want to make do with each other. However, there was only one warship, and Zul'ra could only talk to two gods.
In the quiet room filled with incense, two shrines stood quietly. Zul'ra sat cross-legged in front of the shrine and prayed, and then his spirit fell into silence. Soon, in the room filled with smoke, the sound of wings flapping in the air was faintly heard.
"Dear Akil'zon, respected Akil'darah, thank you for your response to me." Zul'ra closed his eyes tightly, feeling the two giant eagles on the left and right in the consciousness that came down in front of him, their wings slowly folded, and he opened his arms to express his gratitude.
"Say it!" the giant eagle on the left said, with a touch of arrogance in his tone.
"Two respected gods, we only built one battleship this time, and the two of them are unwilling to bless it together. On this point, I am very distressed, so I hope to seek your opinions." Zul'ra felt the tone of Eagle God Akil'zon on the left and asked with a normal attitude.
"Then let Akil'zon give you the blessing! But..." The giant eagle on the right glanced at the companion next to him and made a concession very happily, but at the end of the sentence there was an extra "but".
"I hope you can find a qualified priest for me, and..." Before Akil'darah finished speaking, Akil'zon next to him took over.
"I also need a qualified priest..." Akil'zon looked at the fellow sect next to him with sharp eyes, and also remembered one thing. He needed a qualified priest, and this one is not very useful now.
"Two priests who respect their respective gods and transmit the power of their respective gods are indispensable." Zul'ra looked at Akil'zon who was fighting for it, and responded with a smile without changing his expression.
"Thank you, Zul'ra Jin. In addition to being a qualified priest, I give up being a sailing Loa, so I need a reasonable position." Akil'darah glanced at the guy next to him with his eagle eyes and made a request to Zul'ra.
"This is also inevitable, Akil'darah, you will become Wind Spirit of Amani. I hope you can send greetings to your relatives far away and convey their affection." Zul'ra's eyelids moved slightly.
"Very good, I accept this position. My heir can meet your requirements, King of the Amani. This is my gratitude to you." Akil'darah opened his wings slightly, accepted Zul'ra's opinion, and at the same time gave away a burst of divine power.
"As for you, Akil'zon, I hope you can become the God of Storms. I hope your wings can protect our voyage and allow our ships to travel safely through the ocean." Zul'ra felt the power in his body and spoke to the proud eagle on the side.
"I am Akil'zon, the god of storms. I will watch you from the sky, King of the Amani." Akil'zon spread its wings and flew leisurely into the smoke, while Akil'darah tilted its head toward Zul'ra and spread its wings and flew away.

After negotiating with the two gods, nothing happened next. Zul'ra opened his eyes, extinguished the lit incense, and then walked out of the quiet room and asked people to prepare for the launching ceremony of the battleship. He also selected two suitable Witch Doctor apprentices and asked them to pray to Akil'dar and Akil'zon respectively, and promote the beliefs of these two Eagle Gods.
The launching ceremony was held at the dock of Thalassian Strait. The brand-new battleship is sixty yards (more than fifty-four meters) long and fifteen yards (more than thirteen meters) wide, with a two-story single mast and a steel bow. It can carry eighty-four large, medium and small ballistae. Zul'ra built a simple altar on the bow of the front deck.
Sacrifice, fruits, spiritual wine, incense and Akil'zon's shrine were placed on the altar. Zul'ra presided over the ceremony. Under the gaze of a group of Trolls fishermen, sailors and craftsmen, he read a poem praising the God of Storms, and then determined the name of the battleship as "Soaring Eagle", referred to as Eagle Soar.
"!" Just after naming San La, a sharp eagle call came from the clear blue sky over the sea, and then a huge goshawk with a wingspan of nine meters fell from the sky, flapped its wings and circled the battleship in the air, and then stopped at the bow of the ship.
"This ship will sail through the wind and waves without any hindrance, and will be protected by Akil'zon." The goshawk spoke around the warship, and then flew over the altar at the bow of the ship. After slightly agreeing with Zul'ra with its golden pupils, it fluttered its wings and flew away.
Facing Eagle God who appeared in person, the Trolls sailors and workers onlookers shouted and cheered loudly. Loa appeared one after another, as if to herald the revival of Amani to them.
"Shh!" Zul'ra looked at the Trollss who were cheering and shouting excitedly, and looked at the direction in which Akil'zon was flying, and couldn't help but let out a long breath. Those Loas each had their own personalities, but fortunately they were generally reasonable and did not cause any trouble for themselves.
Amidst the cheers, the Eagle Soar battleship sailed out of the harbor and performed sideways and sliding movements in the shallow water of the strait. In fact, these performance have been tested before, but now it is just to show the performance of the battleship to everyone.
After demonstrating its performance, Zul'ra gave the diluted spirit wine on the altar to the sailors to drink, and the melon and fruit offerings were also taken away to enjoy separately. The gods had no need for these things, and Amani was now extremely poor and could not waste any more.
The first warship was built very smoothly. Zul'ra recruited skilled and powerful Trolls sailors to serve, and selected qualified captains from them, and allocated them with the weapons they needed. This navy has always been much more difficult to maintain than the army. Each of the most common spears and arrows on the ship is worth a gold coin, and the navy also needs year-round training and is completely out of work.
After getting ready, the Eagle Soar battleship was finally able to operate smoothly. Zul'ra summarized many things and couldn't help but start having a headache again, because he built and armed Eagle Soar, including the reward Goblins Korgar's money, plus handling other matters, Amani only has three or four thousand gold coins left.
He had to find a way to get some gold coins. Zul'ra had a headache. After convening everyone to discuss, he re-sent Broken-Tooth to Booty Bay and authorized her to find some business opportunities. In short, Amani could earn enough gold coins from it.
Thank you for blessing you with the light of wisdom of Yugpao. This fish is a bit salty and I am busy with rewards. Thank you for your support.
