Facing the rampant Izkoatl, Bjorn slowly but surely climbed up from the ground, gathering a magic power on the spear.
"Still want to fight to the death?" Izcoatl showed no intention of dodge, standing there and smiling, "It's useless, the victory was already decided that time, I still have some energy left, but you are already exhausted. The lamp is dry!"
"Do you really think I couldn't suppress you just now? Tell me, I am also a pragmatist." Bjorn glared at Izkoatl while slowly assuming a spear-throwing posture, "I I found out, with the protection of the ground, it is difficult for me to hurt you. So I deliberately showed weakness and lured you out!"
Soon enough, the spear fell out of Bjorn's hand and flew towards Izcoatl.
Izcoatl's expression changed. Bjorn has more magic left than he expected, and he unknowingly gets too close to Bjorn!
The fiery power swept towards Izkoatl. Izkoatl had no way to dodge. He hurriedly stamped his feet on several huge pieces of gravel and pushed them out with his magic power. Bjorn's spears penetrated the rubble one after another. At the same time, the magic power of both sides also surged in the air, turning into two strong winds in opposite directions, destroying the surrounding buildings.
Finally, just as he was about to stab Izcoatl, the spear was blown away. Izkoatl gasped, and Bjorn fell to the ground with a thud.
"It's useless!" Izcoatl shouted loudly, "I have become stronger, and your magic level can no longer suppress me!"
With a "crash", Bjorn's spear hit the farmhouse where Ella was. Although it was at the end of its strength, it still caused half of the entire wall to collapse. Izkoatl turned his head and saw Amy standing inside, and his expression suddenly changed:
"Why are you here...how did you chase me here?"
In his impression, Amy was a magician from the First Era.
Ella was lying flat on the ground to avoid being blown down by the wind again. When she noticed that the wind had stopped, she held her head and shouted: "Amy, how are you? Is Bjorn okay?"
Hearing Ella's voice, Izcoatl became even more panicked. He stepped back repeatedly, shouting: "You wait, you wait...just wait! I will beat you soon!"
Before Amy could react, he hurriedly jumped into the ground and escaped in stealth.
"Don't chase!"
Ella raised her head and saw that Bjorn had fallen to the ground, and hurriedly stopped the pirate behind him. She climbed out from behind the wall, came to Bjorn's side, and asked anxiously: "Bjorn? What's wrong? Has Izkoatl become so powerful now?"
"Who asked you to follow?" Bjorn pushed Ella away with a look of displeasure and slowly stood up from the ground. "Even if you don't come, I can defeat him with my sword skills."
But before he finished speaking, he staggered and almost fell to the ground again.
"Stop holding on." Amy said from the side, "Even His Majesty can see that you are the loser."
In desperation, Bjorn had to admit:
"Well, Izkoatl has become a lot stronger. I am no longer an opponent."
"Why did he improve so quickly?" Amy asked doubtfully, "The last time I saw him, he wasn't so strong, right?"
Bjorn glared at Amy angrily: "What are you talking about, a person who suddenly changed from ego level to elf level? The Aztlan people rely on sacrificing their hearts to gods to increase their magic power. Although it is convenient, it is not as good as yours." The magic of the Qiqiu Empire system improves much more slowly."
At this moment, a pirate ran over from behind: "King of Sweden, we found a large number of villagers' corpses in the underground passages under the village!"
Ella gasped. What she feared happened indeed - Izcoatl found the tunnel where the villagers were hiding.
"I followed Izkoatl all the way." Bjorn said, "Follow me, there is another 'attraction' here."
He picked up the spear from the ground to support his body, and limped around the village with Ella a few times. A large bloodstain suddenly appeared on the ground, and a stench wafted over it. In the center of the bloodstain stood a simple altar built with a few branches, filled with human hearts.
"Obviously, Izkoatl has been here a long time ago. All the villagers in this village have become sacrifices to the Sun War God. And as you can see, I am no longer Izkoatl's opponent. "
"What should we do?" Ella was very embarrassed. "If this continues, Izcoatl will become stronger and stronger."
"I don't know what to do," Bjorn said, "so let England handle the next thing."
"Wait a minute, what do you mean?" Amy shouted from the side, "His Majesty came here specially to save you, and you are just going to run away like this?"
"I have a question for you - why do the corpses of villagers appear in the tunnel?"
Bjorn looked at Ella meaningfully.
"I have been here before and found no villagers. And Izcoatl probably did not have the need to drag the villagers down into the tunnel and bury them. I guess this tunnel was not dug by Izcoatl, but by the villagers. They dug it. This is a trap you set for me, right?"
Ella was speechless for a moment. Of course, she couldn't reveal Alfred's plan to surprise Scotland to Bjorn.
But Bjorn had already read the abnormality from Ella's reaction:
"As expected, you still have things to hide from me. I think we just signed an armistice agreement, not allies. Although Izcoatl killed several of my soldiers, my first priority at the moment is to lead my soldiers safely Withdraw to Scotland. King of Sweden, do you have anything to say?"
"In that case, there's nothing we can do about it." Ella had no choice but to sigh, "I'll give you the food and grass as usual. You can go back to Winchester to get it."
"Thanks."
Bjorn bowed slightly to thank him, and then slowly walked towards Winchester City with his spear in hand.
"Wait a minute!" Ella called Bjorn from behind. "Bjorn, tell me, does Izcoatl sacrifice like this without any side effects?"
"Yes." Bjorn stopped and answered with his back to Ella, "Sacrificing the heart of a comrade will be despised by the gods. According to the legend of the Aztlan people, his destination after death will be called Da In the hell of Mictlan, there is no way to come to God no matter what.”
"That's it? What about before you die?"
"I don't know. There might be a curse, and I don't know much about Aztlan."
"Isn't he protected by the Sun God of War?" Amy asked from the side, "If the god despised him, why would his magic level increase instead?"
"Yes, and no. Aztlan's magic system is different from ours in many ways. The most important point is that if the gods do not have a heart supply, they will gradually lose their magic power. And even mortals, as long as they sacrifice enough The heart can touch the 'crown' - become a god."
"Mortal...becoming a god?"
Amy opened her mouth in shock. This was something she had never heard of.
Bjorn turned slowly and stared at Ella.
"Since Izcoatl sacrificed Chimalpopoka's heart, he has already embarked on a path of no return. For his destiny after death, becoming a god is his only way out. For this reason, he will go crazy. Collect hearts as usual. In the next few days, the number of dead will increase rapidly. King of Sweden, if you want to intervene in this matter, you must solve this problem as soon as possible. If you delay, his magic level will eventually rise to Winches The city’s walls are so irresistible!”
"Solve this problem as soon as possible? Do you have so much confidence in me?" Ella frowned, "To be honest, Izcoatl is so elusive that it is difficult to track him. And if he hides underneath, my troops will not be able to do anything. Can’t take advantage. What should I do?”
"If I had known, I wouldn't be hurt like this."
Bjorn turned his back again and limped towards the outside of the village.
"Think of your own solution, Daughter of Ragnarok!"
