As Bjorn's camp burned from Amy's fire, so did the baggage train behind him from Ayla's attack.
Bjorn used the camp to lure Alfred, so he naturally had to move the heavy supplies out of the camp. When he turned around to attack the enemy troops who had entered the trap, these supplies that were left behind and were not protected by the camp became his biggest threat. weakness.
Tesosomok crawled on the ground on his hands and knees. The injuries on his feet were far from healed, and the palms of his hands were pierced by Alfred's torture instrument. It was difficult for him to even crawl, so he lay on the cart and fell behind. As soon as Ella's army arrived, Bjorn's remaining troops fled in all directions, unable to even bother to push this Aztlan away. Fortunately, Ella only wanted to burn the supplies, so Tesosomok was able to lie on the ground, crawl on his elbows, and escape with difficulty.
The Aztlan Empire has always been invincible on its own continent. As the leader of one of the Aztlan Tripartite Alliance, Tesozomoc has never encountered such a defeat. He was devastated, lost all will to fight, and all he wanted to do was escape far away. But when he found a powerful magic force approaching and he couldn't escape at his speed, he was so frightened that he shrank to a corner, holding his head and not daring to move.
"Spare me!" he shouted, "I'm just an ordinary soldier, forced to do so!"
A voice sounded from above, with some pity: "Tratoani, what are you..."
Tesosomok raised his head tremblingly and found that the person standing in front was Izkoatl. There is a slight ridge of soil on the ground, which was obviously just dug out by Izcoatl. He felt more at ease now, but his voice was still trembling:
"Izcoatl, you are back. Where is Chimalpopoka? Are you still behind?"
Looking at the lost Tesosomok, Izkoatl couldn't help but frown.
"Chimalpopoka was killed."
"Killed? Who did it? What happened? Didn't Bjorn say that the enemy had fallen into a trap?"
"A magician whose magic level has reached the first era has appeared, and Chimalpopoka has no power to resist."
"First Age? Who is it?"
"You should have seen one of the queen's subordinates, the one riding the white wolf, Tratoani."
"That person? She should only be at the level of the Second Age, and her abilities are not suitable for fighting at all. Why suddenly... It's not good, it's too bad. This is Quetzalcoatl being angry!" Tesosomok held his head and wailed. , "Bjorn is right, we shouldn't confront that queen at all. That queen is really the messenger of Quetzalcoatl. You see, even a magician from the first era has to obey her orders! Chimar Popoca is dead, we have to leave immediately, leave this new world and retreat to Aztlan!"
"Withdraw? What about our captured Aztlan warriors?"
"Now we can only leave them behind! Izcoatl, hurry up, help me up..."
Tesosomok stretched out his hand to Izkoatl, and found that Izkoatl was watching him coldly, and was stunned for a moment:
"Izkoatl, why do you keep giving orders...why do you look at me like that?"
"Tratoani should be the most powerful warrior in the city-state." Izcoatl said, "But Tesosomok, you have become a coward now."
"What do you mean?" Tesosomok roared angrily, "Magician of the First Era! Aren't you afraid?"
"Afraid, I was so scared that I was shaking. I could only run back in despair." Izkoatl took a breath with a forced smile, "But! Since I ran back alive, I'm not afraid anymore! Tela! Toani, look, what is this?"
Izkoatl stretched out his hand from behind and displayed a bloody piece of meat in front of Tesosomok:
"The heart of Chimalpopoka! I took advantage of the chaos and brought it back! The heart of a second-era magician who actually died on the battlefield. As long as we sacrifice it to the Sun War God, our power can rise again." One level!”
"Why are you still thinking about the Sun God of War! Its own power is about to disappear! Right... right! Sacrifice it to Quetzalcoatl, give it to the messenger of Quetzalcoatl... Maybe in this way, we can Be forgiven!"
"I am a loyal believer in the Sun God of War, and I will not believe the lies of these liars."
"Liar? Isn't the evidence now enough? That immortal body, that endless physical strength, the power to dispel smoke mirrors, that wise insight into numbers, and that her subordinates suddenly reached the first era, they must I was also blessed by her! What kind of evidence do you want?"
Izcoatl was visibly shaken. Ever since Bjorn said that the Naga Plague was not a common disease in this new world, the words "smoke mirror" and "quetzalcoatl" have been lingering in his mind. Now that a magician from the First Era has appeared again, it is impossible to say that he does not believe that Ella is the messenger of Quetzalcoatl. But his firmness in faith was far greater than that of Chimalpopoka and Tesosomok. Although he had doubts, he still insisted: "
"I still say the same thing. Unless the queen who claims to be the envoy of God shows the corresponding power, in my eyes, she will always be just a liar!"
"Then even if she is not an envoy, what are you going to do with the magician from the First Era? Even the heart of Chimalpopoka is not enough to elevate us to the level where we can fight against the people from the First Era!"
"One heart can't do it, what about the two?"
"Two? Where did the two come from?" Before Tessosomok finished speaking, he suddenly noticed a fierce light in Izkoatl's eyes. He was so frightened that he moved some distance away from the ground and yelled, "What do you want to do? I'm Tratoani!"
"I have just said that Tratoani should be the most powerful warrior in the city-state, not a coward who only wants to beg for mercy."
Izkoatl approached Tesosomok with a ferocious smile.
"If two hearts are still not enough, then I can find a way to get more. This is a new continent. No lord has concluded a contract with Aztlan. The people living on this continent are just like sticks of corn. Take it as I please. Although the hearts obtained outside the battlefield are very weak, we just need to pile them up. Anyway, we are here for hundreds of thousands of hearts, and we don’t care how many times more people die. Isn't it? First reach the First Age, and then touch the crown... Someone has to reach the crown, so why can't it be me?"
Izkoatl took out the obsidian dagger, which made Tesosomok move back in fright. In terms of magic, Tesosomoc is superior to Izcoatl. However, Tesosomok was seriously injured and has not recovered. If he really wanted to fight, there is a high probability that he would not be Izcoatl's opponent.
Just when Tesosomok was thinking about how to unexpectedly reverse the situation and win, a rumble of footsteps came from a distance.
"Oops, the pursuers are coming."
Izcoatl did not dare to stay longer and immediately got into the ground. But seeing a pirate force chasing after them from a distance, Tesosomok wiped the cold sweat from his body. He had no intention of struggling anymore and raised his hands high:
"I was wrong! I surrender! Please give me a chance to see the messenger of Quetzalcoatl!"
