Chapter 53: The Fall

It was the wail of a dying traveler as he lost his life to the rainforest. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Usually it would be a long sigh of relief, perhaps mixed with a cry of unwillingness, but if it was near the Spring Fountain, it would have been accompanied by a groan of pain.

Without adequate preparation, pedestrians will eventually find themselves without water on their journey through the swamp, and will then drink dirty water with deadly germs in despair, and then be tormented in agony, moaning and struggling until they die.

Tonnan had just witnessed the end of one of those moans.

The warrior's mount, the adult Tyrannosaurus rex, silently opened its eyes, the commander's face reflected in the huge pupils, and Tonan gently patted the giant beast's neck before walking towards the outside of the camp.

The light of the fire flickered, illuminating a small pitiful area, and at the same time darkening the place where the light could not reach, and at the junction of light and darkness, a man fell to the ground.

He didn't moan anymore - he was dead.

Tonnan carefully flipped the body over with a twig, and then appeared before him with a strange but unmistakable face.

That's an outsider.

There was a lot of information on this face, the pain and suffering of the deceased in their lives, the dangers lurking in the rainforest, everything was hidden, but Tonnan didn't care about it all.

An outsider has come to the Spring Spring.

That can only mean one thing - disaster has struck.

Tonnan raised his head and looked at the eastern sky while ......

In the last Mayan city-state, Francis looked up at the western sky.

Beside him, the ubiquitous explorers were looting for gold from the houses of the natives, who were desperate to rush from one place to another, dismissing everything but gold.

Francis didn't hate the short-sightedness of explorers.

At the end of the day, he had no reason to hate explorers, and it was this group of people who saved him.

But it's not enough.

The Mayan land was not a blessing of science, it was full of cannibalistic rainforests, the indigenous people struggled to survive by hunting, and the Mayans themselves were dissatisfied with the status quo and even put their hopes on outsiders.

And this is not the case with the Aztecs in the West.

The interpreter told Francis that the enemies of the Mayans were the Aztecs of the West, and that they were spreading like a plague and killing inexhaustible people, and Francis believed that there could only be one reason for all this - that the Aztecs had taken possession of the gift of science.

But they won't stay in that land for long, and the scientifically chosen ones have arrived.

......

Magellan stood behind a stout wooden railing and watched the sun set outside over Tenochtitlan.

It is a magnificent city, where the lake reflects the red sunset at sunset, and every embankment and street is filled with returning pedestrians.

He remembered what the city used to be.

"Why don't you leave?" Magellan turned to face the eagleman who was locked up in the room with him, "you can fly." ”

"We're not going to turn around and leave when we're so close to the Eagle's Nest, none of the Hawkmen can do that. ”

Wen stood beside Magellan, looking out at the city at sunset.

They were located in the highest temple in the center of the city, and through the gaps in the wooden fence they could see the stone buildings outside, and the drainage outlets in the shape of the rain snake god were covered with moss.

"Still, accompanying me to become a captive of the Aztecs was still not the best option. ”

"You call them Aztecs, not indigenous. ”

The eagleman's words made Magellan laugh: "Does that mean anything?"

"I never doubted that you could leave surrounded by countless people, the battle that took place in the courtroom was not known to everyone, but not the Hawkman. ”

"You suspect that I was deliberately captured?

"If we want to get to where the eagle's nest is, or rebuild the airship, or get help from the natives, there's no other way. ”

"Captured people don't get help from the Aztecs. ”

Wen looked at Magellan with strange eyes: "Your plan...... Can you tell us?"

"It was a hassle, and I wasn't sure if it would work. ”

"But there's only one hope left for us. ”

"As much as I don't think I'm mistaken, I'd like to ask, would you do anything to get the Eagle's Nest?"

"Yes. ”

"Why?"

The eagle man faced Magellan with a wry smile: "Faith." ”

"It sounds very much like the Pope, you're very close, especially the eyes. ”

"I don't know if you're joking, but I'm serious and I hope it doesn't make you feel uncomfortable......"

"Don't worry, you're not the same as the Holy See, at least for now, you're on my side. ”

"That's because you didn't want to snatch the Eagle's Nest. ”

Magellan laughed, and he heard footsteps.

It belonged to an Aztec warrior, not a dinosaur warrior in charge of guarding.

Soon, a tall man came to the door, he asked the guards to open it, and then led Magellan out of the room.

"The elder wants to see you. ”

"The warrior who went to the Spring Springs has sent the latest news, right?"

The warrior who was walking in front of Magellan stopped, he turned to look at the outsider who was following behind, and then without saying a word, turned around and continued towards the main hall.

"The Aztecs will soon face the power to destroy the Mayans, and if you need help, you can come to me. ”

"Shut up, outsider. ”

"You can call me Magellan. ”

The two came to the main hall together, and the warrior stopped quietly at the entrance, while Magellan walked in.

"Welcome, guests from afar. ”

"Thank you. ”

Magellan saw a stone chair in the center of the hall, and he walked straight over and sat on it.

"It's an honor to meet you, Aztec leader. ”

"You know us well, but no Aztec has ever seen you. ”

Directly across from Magellan was an old man, dressed in ornate feathers, with a wrinkled face but a sparkle of wisdom in his eyes.

"I am not your enemy, as you know, I am here for a purpose. ”

"What's that?"

"Confront the destroyers of civilization. ”

"What are you talking about? Are you boasting?"

"Maya has been destroyed, it's not speculation, I know. ”

"How do you prove it's not a guess......"

Magellan, who was a little rude during the first meeting, interrupted the elder: "The outsiders, the monsters, should have appeared in the Aztec-controlled rainforest, I know, this is not speculation. ”

"May I interpret that you are speculating?"
