Chapter 49: The Water Comes Out of the Earth

Azholm finally nodded, surprised at how he had only hesitated for so long. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Let's go, there's no time to waste. ”

"Wait a minute...... Azholm began to worry that Tonan had lost his mind, "you don't know where the Spring Fountain is......"

"The place we are is the closest safe area to the Spring Spring," Tonan nodded to his lieutenant, "the secret camp of the Mayans that has never appeared in the eyes of the Aztecs, only the possibility of hiding in the Death Swamp." ”

Azholm was silent for a moment, his emotions were very mixed, both the joy of finding the right shelter and the indescribable loss.

"Yes, I've been there three times, listen," Azholm pulled out his dagger and drew a rough topographical map of the trunk of a large tree beside him, "the real danger of the Death Swamp is the lack of clean water, and if we don't have enough supplies, we'll die of thirst halfway through." ”

"Don't worry, if you don't lead us into a trap halfway, there's nothing stopping the Aztecs from getting the Spring Fountain. ”

Azholm sighed helplessly, then nodded.

"Let's go, you follow me. ”

Tonnan walked behind Azholm, who turned around and saw a scene beyond his imagination.

Twelve-legged monsters stood silently in the rainforest, looking curiously at him with the yellow eyes of a lizard, silently.

It was a group of long-legged lizards that stood up, but far larger and more terrifying than any long-legged lizard Azholm had ever seen. The cold-blooded monster that stood on its back could reach the shoulders of an adult, and was covered with turquoise, iron-blue scales, with a small head, a mouth full of fangs, and a hint of beastly cunning in its eyes.

Almost immediately, Azholm noticed the monster's exaggerated claws, which transformed the beasts from shape-shifting lizards into terrifying monsters that only appear in stories.

"What is this?"

"Dinosaurus. ”

Tonan wasted no time, he jumped on the back of the biggest monster and grabbed Azholm by the shoulders and placed him on the back of the other monster.

"We'll arrive at the Spring Springs before we die of thirst," Tonnan's warriors jumped aboard the dinosaurs, the monsters rushing toward the depths of the rainforest at breakneck speed, "and by then, the warriors stationed near the springs should have returned to the city-state for the ceremony to welcome outsiders." ”

Azholm didn't say anything, and it wasn't because it was too bumpy. He had learned to balance on the monster's back, a bipedal beast much like a human, always on its back, no matter how fast they ran.

The betrayer was just unwilling to admit Maya's defeat in person.

......

Francis has regained his freedom.

The secret, he knew, was to smile.

The Mayans seem to be preparing for an important celebration, and Francis thinks that perhaps he is just in time for an indigenous festival, but the truth is that this is not the case.

Azholm's departure has been completely forgotten, and the law of the rainforest is that the departed are not remembered, even by the Mayans, who were accustomed to growing corn.

The High Priest was pleased with the progress of the preparations, and the ceremony he hoped to see was taking place step by step, and the cooperation of outsiders allowed the interpreter to learn the new language much faster than expected, and everything was going according to plan.

The power of Quetzalcoatl was helping them, and the High Priest was increasingly convinced of the prophecy, and he was excited as he imagined the coming New Age.

Of course, not everything is going to be as good as you would in the world, and the messenger to the seaside village did not return on time, no doubt because Su killed the son of the village priest, and the high priest knew it.

But that doesn't matter, Maya is about to be reborn, and Quetzalcoatl will bless them.

......

For a moment, Azholm was filled with the excitement of being in the midst of a legend, knowing that he was going to see a miracle that was enough to make the moody god of war laugh.

But at the same time, almost all the time, his mind was full of fantasies after defeat, unfounded, chaotic, but so real.

The Aztec mounts were clever and agile, and they walked through the rainforest like the wind, not even letting the leaves of the forest touch Azholm's face. Known as the dinosaur, the monster had great speed and stamina, and soon traveled the average distance.

Tonnan is a good commander, and no one knows whether his abilities come from talent or long training, but when he is in war, the path is clear.

The Aztec knew what he was supposed to do, and he arranged a time to arrive at the spring, and only guessed the location of the spring spring to make the plan come true.

When the Aztecs arrived at the camp guarding the springs, it was just nightfall, most of the warriors had already fallen asleep, and the few who had begun the vigil were not ready.

Then before Azholm's eyes, a massacre began.

The Aztecs were no more formidable than the elite Mayan warriors guarding the area, but they caught their opponents off guard, most of the Mayan warriors died without weapons at hand, and they were disemboweled by the exaggerated claws of the dinosaurs as soon as they woke up from their sleep.

Tonan killed Maya's commander with his own hands, and as before, he guessed the treehouse where the mighty warrior rested, so that he never woke up.

Azholm watched as he watched in silence as the corpse fell to the ground, blood spreading, and then greedily absorbed by the rainforest land, leaving only the faint red of the night.

Maya's betrayer shuddered, but felt his blood boiling.

"Take me to the Spring Spring. ”

Tonam walked out of the treehouse carrying the head of the leader samurai, only to find that there was no need to crush the Mayan resistance in this way, and that his warriors had won a complete victory - the Mayans were left with fewer guards than Tonan had expected.

Azholm nodded, the movement almost draining him of all his strength, and he felt like he was bowing the head of a tree thick enough to accommodate a dozen people.

The two walked through the dark rainforest to a clearing.

"There's nothing here. ”

Tonam looked around, it was rare in the rainforest to see ground like his feet uncovered by weeds, but there was no spring here.

"Here. ”

Azholm bent down with his torch and let the firelight illuminate the ground.

It was a stone slab, and it was the one that prevented the green from taking over the space.

The stone slab was carved with an ugly female deity, and Tonan recognized it at a glance as the guardian of the Mayan water.

"Ah......h
