But they also have one thing similar to men, that is, they have no clothes on their upper bodies, and only a few women tie shells with ropes for decoration and covering.

Raphael, an innocent little boy, has never seen such a scene, his face is red with shame, and he doesn't know where to put his eyes.

His physiognomy is the most beautiful of all mankind, let alone in this small seaside village, and his cheeks are crimson as if he were the angel of his namesake, Raphael's religious paintings.

The eyes of the native girl who poured him water were almost glued to him, and she wanted to pick him up and rush to a hidden place in the jungle to give birth to his seventeen or eighteen children.

Jack, on the other hand, was very thick-skinned, rubbing his hands around, and not treating himself as an outsider at all.

The natives brought some food in stone bowls, apparently made of corn, beans, peppers, and unknown spices.

Raphael took a tentative sip, and it tasted pretty good.

Having eaten and drunk, the two sides fell into an awkward silence again.

Seeing that there was no way to go on like this, Haka got up and made a gesture that was about to wait, and then walked into a house painted with white mud.

Soon, he walked out of the house with an old man in his arms.

The old man's head was not covered with grass, and he was tied with a rope and a few colorful feathers.

"Lord Priest, I need your help." Haka said humbly.

The old man in front of him was the only priest left in the village, and if it wasn't for the necessity, Haka wouldn't want to invite him out.

The old priest opened his heavy eyelids and glanced at Raphael and the others, with surprise, anticipation, and doubt in his eyes.

He walked up to Raphael with difficulty, respectfully bent down and stretched out his palm.

Raphael was about to reach out and hold it, but Liu Zheng stopped him, "Let me come." ”

The heart of defense is indispensable, with the double protection of the Fountain of Essence and the Anchor of the Soul, he is a pervert with high resistance to curses or toxins, and he is not afraid of these natives doing things.

He reached out and grasped the old priest's dry hand, and the moment the skin touched, a bloody and heavy history flooded into his mind.

It turns out that these villagers belong to the former kingdom of Ramakat, which has a history even longer than the Aztec Empire, the current overlord of the continent.

About a hundred years ago, the kingdom of Ramacat, at its peak, marched into the Central Valley, built the magnificent Shwedagon Pagoda of Chorula, and conquered almost all the surrounding tribes, thus dominating the central part of the continent.

The Aztecs had just entered the Central Valley and, because of their warlike nature, were constantly harassing neighboring tribes, making their neighbors angry.

The Ramakat Empire was too lazy to take action against such small tribes, so neighboring tribes banded together to carry out a crusade against the Aztecs.

The result of the war, of course, was the defeat of the Aztecs, most of them were captured, and a small part fled to the island.

The captured Aztecs were taken to Kurhuakan, a dynasty of descendants of the Toltecs, to live under the watchful eye of Coxcox, the chieftain of Kurhuakan.

Later, their reputation skyrocketed due to their exploits in a battle at Kurhuakan, and Coxcox decided to grant them freedom.

The Aztecs moved to a small island in Lake Texcoco, joined with those who had previously fled there, and founded the city of Tenochtitlan.

After the establishment of Tenochtitlan, the Aztecs allied themselves with the state of Tepanix under the rule of Tezomoc.

With the help of the Aztecs, the state of Tepanix gradually became a small empire.

At this time, the Aztecs still did not have a legitimate monarch until a Kuhuacan-Aztec king, Akama Pichitili, ascended the throne.

In the face of the expansion of the Tepanius and the Aztecs, the Ramakat Empire, which dominated the Central Valley at that time, certainly could not tolerate it.

The Aztecs played a crucial role in the outbreak of war between the two countries, gaining a large amount of wealth and population, and relying on the dividends of the war, Tenochtitlan quickly became a large city.

More than a dozen years later, the monarch of Tepanix, Tezomok, died, and the kingdom of Tepanix fell into civil strife.

The Aztecs supported their preferred heir, Taiyahau, to the throne, but Tezomoc's brother Mastra usurped the throne and turned against those who opposed him, including the Aztec monarch Chimarpopoca at the time.

Soon after, Chimar Popoca died mysteriously, and it is said that Tezozomoc was the victim of witchcraft.

A few months later, Chimarpopoca's uncle Itzco Attel succeeded to the Aztec throne, allied himself with Nezaval Coyotel, the former ruler of Lake Texcoco, and attacked Macstra's capital, Atska Potzalco, and the Tepanix War began.

After 100 days, Mastra surrendered and was exiled, and with it, the kingdom of Tepanix perished.

After the end of the war, Tenochtitlan, Texcoco, and Tlakopan formed an alliance, and the territory of the former state of Tepanix was divided into three countries, and its treasury was divided between the three countries, with Tenochtitlan receiving 40%, Descoco 40%, and Tlakopan 20%.

Soon after the alliance was established, both the rulers Itzko Attel and Tracal undertook drastic reforms of Aztec politics and religion.

They ordered the burning of books in civilian homes, claiming that "the books contain false lies and that not every Aztec should understand those pictures".

They falsified the history of the Aztecs and elevated the Aztecs' status in history, which allowed civilians to learn.

A dozen years later, Itskoatl's nephew, Montezuma I, ascended the throne and expanded his territory.

He also carried out a series of reforms in order to consolidate the newly expanded region.

He established a new method of paying tribute, which greatly improved the country's economy; A new land policy was enacted for the former Tepanius country, reducing the chance of rebellion; An additional law on the death penalty was enacted, stipulating that commoners were not allowed to marry nobles; A series of educational policies were established, with schools established in every residential area; He also perfected the system of rewards, which allowed anyone who excelled in military or civilian affairs, whether a nobleman or a commoner, to be rewarded.

During the reign of Montezuma I, there was a great famine throughout Mesoamerica, which the Aztecs believed to be the wrath of the gods and believed that the only way to quench it was by sacrificing fresh men.

As a result, in order to obtain human sacrifices, the Aztec Triple Alliance signed a treaty with the rival nations, stipulating that each side would fight with the aim of capturing rather than killing each other's personnel.

Legend has it that the mighty Tlaxcala warrior Tara Hui was captured by the Aztecs, but because of his exploits, the Aztecs decided to release him on the condition that he fight for the Aztecs.

Tara Hui was freed, but was unwilling to return to his homeland, and died as a sacrifice to the Aztecs.

The Aztecs celebrated his move for eight days in a row and sent warriors to fight him alone.

In the end, Tara Hui was defeated at the hands of the 28th warrior and was sent to the altar for blood.

This is the so-called War of Honor.

During the reign of Montezuma I, he reoccupied the real-world state of Morelos, Mexico, which had rebelled during the famine, and expanded his territory to the Gulf of Mexico in the east and the real-world Mexican state of Oaxaca in the south.

After the death of Montezuma I, he was succeeded by his son Ahaya Cartel, who spent 13 years quelling the local revolt caused by his father's expansion.

At the same time, the Ramacat Empire could no longer tolerate the infinite expansion of the Aztecs and invaded the Toluca Valley with its troops.

After a brief defeat, the Ahya Cartel reoccupied the area and successfully fended off the invasion of the Tarasco State.

The Ahaya Cartel sent 25,000 soldiers to attack the mainland of the Ramakat Empire, but just as they entered the border, the movement of the large army was discovered by the Ramakat Empire and defeated it.

Relying on the desperate struggle of the warriors, and at the cost of five thousand soldiers, the Ahya Cartel fled back to Tenochtitlan in disarray.

This victory gave the Armacat Empire the hope of completely defeating the Aztec Empire, and it sent envoys everywhere to lure and threaten the surrounding forces, and formally concluded a three-nation alliance with the Ramakat Empire, the Holy Pyramid City-State, and the Tlaxcala tribal group, supplemented by a large number of vassal tribes, in an attempt to strangle the Aztec Empire, which was expanding in one fell swoop.

However, things were not as simple as the rulers of the Amakat Empire thought.
