Among the stunned crowd, Tesozomoc was the first to shout: "Celebrate! Quetzalcoatl has returned to Aztlan!"

In response to his voice, the Tratoani of Mastra, Tinek, and many other city-states raised their hands to the sky and shouted: "Messenger of God! Messenger of God! Messenger of God!"

Destroying a public bath is not unusual in itself. But during the whole process, no one felt even a trace of magic flow, which was terrifying. You know, this will only happen when there is a huge gap in magic levels. If destroying a stone bathhouse is just the magic of the second era, so that no one can feel the flow of magic, then it will be at least the first era or above, and maybe even the crown.

Thinking of this, everyone cheered even more enthusiastically.

However, some people still stay awake. The old man kept frowning, and when the cheers of the crowd subsided, he said aloud: "Is this explosion a little strange? It looks similar to when they threw bottles to start fires before. Is this really magic?"

Ella's eyes widened, she grabbed the copper plate in her hand and threw it towards the old man! The old man was startled. He was already old and had no time to dodge. Fortunately, Ella was not very strong. The copper plate fell to the ground as soon as it left his hand, making only a few clanging sounds.

"I was angry just now!" She shouted at the old man, "What do you mean I can only rely on weapons? Come on, take this bottle and see if you can make fire!"

She handed a bottle from her waist to the old man's hand. The old man took the bottle, observed it carefully, and then suddenly threw the bottle onto the field!

The bottle shattered, but no fire broke out.

——After all, this bottle only contains wine. Paracelsus's Fire of the Sea was not easy to make. All the ocean fire brought by Ella had been used up in the explosion just now.

Ella's move was actually very dangerous. Associating the explosion in the bathhouse with the bottle in his hand, the lie will be exposed as long as someone thinks that the liquid in the last bottle is different. It was only because she was drunk that she took such reckless actions.

But no one present thought of this. There is a certain kind of liquid that ignites on its own when it comes into contact with the air. This kind of thing is a complete fantasy for people who don't understand alchemy, and Aztlan not only doesn't have alchemy, it doesn't even have metallurgy. They thought that what could explain this phenomenon was the ignition mechanism contained in the bottle.

"Look at the fragments on the ground." The old man told his followers, "Are the fragments from before the same as the one I just threw?"

The answer is of course yes.

"Messenger of God!" Tesozomoc once again took the lead in cheering, "Aztlan will become more prosperous and powerful under your leadership!"

This time, everyone cheered.

"Lord God Envoy." After three cheers, Tesosomok approached Ella and said, "Now, it's time to celebrate the winning team!"

"Huh? Team?" Ella was dazed, "What team?"

Tesosomok saw that Ella was drunk. But since Ella didn't delay things, he didn't say much. He just laughed and explained: "It's just to give commemorative gifts to the team that won the game before you came. The God Envoy only cares about awarding awards and other things. give it to me."

"Huh? Award...can you give me one too?"

Amy couldn't stand listening and called from below: "Your Majesty, come here and take these polished stones!"

The ceremony was then carried out smoothly. Tesosomok asked the servants to take down the incense that was lit for the competition, while Ella took the bag given by Amy and followed Amy's instructions, dazedly distributing the stone medals inside one by one. to the players. Tesosomok waited quietly for Ella to finish all this. Then, he climbed back onto the pyramid and announced to the defeated players:

"Quetzalcoatl hates human sacrifice. Although you have failed, you can continue to live until you are free on your own!"

Then, he announced to all the Tratoani present:

"When Quetzalcoatl truly becomes the main god of Aztlan, all activities of human sacrifice will be abolished! I, Tesozomoc, hereby declare that I will make this day come. This is the vast soup. Those who follow the trend of the world will prosper, but those who go against it will perish!"

This is the most important sentence of this ceremony. Tesosomoc used this to hint at his ambition to replace the Sun King. At the moment when Nesa Hualcoyotl was burned, he had no worries anymore and was ready to continue to speak clearly to seek the support of the Tratoani who were present.

However, at this moment, a flame burst out from the stands like a suddenly erupting volcano!

As if being held up by the flames, Nesa Hualcoyotel slowly floated into the air. The flames around him kissed his burned skin, healing his injuries at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Tesosomok secretly screamed something bad. He removed the incense and restored Nezahualcyotel's magic!

As Nesa Hualcoyotel waved his hand, the flames surrounding him dispersed like the wind. He raised his head high and looked up at the sun in the sky. Although all his clothes were burned in the fire, his skin had recovered as before, and no damage could be seen at all.

Huge magic power flowed through the venue, overwhelming everyone and making them unable to breathe. That was the oppression that Ella never had when she cast "magic". For a moment, trembling and fear filled the chests of everyone present.

Nesa Hualcoyotel slowly lowered his head. The moment he found Ella, his whole body suddenly burst into blazing and dazzling flames, as if another sun had ignited in the sky!

Tesosomok took a step forward with a serious expression and asked:

"Nessa Hualcoyotel, what do you want to do again? You have already admitted that the competition failed, do you still want to regret it?"

After a slight silence, Nesa Hualcoyotel restrained his brilliance and flames, and slowly fell back to the stands.

"How could I go back on my word? Tesosomok, I am very happy that Quetzalcoatl is back. This is a good thing for the entire empire.

Tesosomok didn't expect that Nesa Hualcoyotel would say that, and was slightly startled. Then, Nesa Hualcoyotel suddenly raised a piece of jade jewelry and shouted loudly:

"Everyone, listen!"

It was a jade double-headed snake. The snake's body was twisted and twisted into the shape of two "W"s. The head and the snake's body each had a grinning, fierce-looking snake head. This was one of the tokens of the Sun King. All Tratoani present were so frightened that they knelt down, and even Tesosomoc bowed down slightly helplessly.

"It is said that the Sun King sent me an order seven days ago. The war in the north has begun. This battle will determine the life and death of the one hundred and eighty-six states of the empire. All states are now ordered to send troops to the north immediately. Anyone who refuses the order will be regarded as an imperial The six divisions will defeat our enemies and show no mercy!"

After passing the order, Nesa Hualcoyotel put away the jewelry, smiled and bowed in the direction of Ella.

"Before leaving, the Sun King told me that if Tesosomoc brought back a priest of Quetzalcoatl during his trip, he would be ordered to go north as an accompanying priest. On the day of success, Quetzalcoatl will once again become the guardian of the empire. god."
