Chapter 47: The King of Thunder and Lightning
Black clouds, strong winds, and torrential rain enveloped the entire land, and lightning bolts in the sky, accompanied by rumbling thunder, pierced the hazy night.
One by one, the beasts raised by the tribe began to howl, and their voices grew louder and louder, until they became harmonies and made a great noise.
Then, a shrill voice pierced through the night...... It's not a beast, it's a hunting trumpet of the Native Americans, signaling danger to come.
All the sleeping Indians came out of the room and gathered towards the pyramid square.
The lightning tore through the sky again, and for a moment, the night was as bright as day, and everyone could see the thunderbird in mid-air, as well as ......
Two wizards on the back of a bird!
At the orders of the two wizards, lightning slammed into the altar at the top of the pyramid, and rubble continued to fall from the rock walls.
"Damn, these guys again!"
"Get out, stranger!"
"You're not welcome here!
”
"Grass mud horse!
”
The Indians yelled into the air, and the air was filled with all sorts of curses and insults.
The wizard on the back of the Thunderbird did not change his face, not because they were in a good state of mind, but because they were ...... Do not understand.
The crowd also flew out of the stone spears and shot them towards the Thunderbird, and more stone spears followed, but before they could get close, they were shot down by lightning.
Dana looked around anxiously, an arm on her shoulder, and the girl turned her head to look at her, and said with a sigh of relief:
"Rov, you're fine! Why are you alone, Margaery? ”
She ...... There are things to do. Rove looked up at the Thunderbird and the wizard on the Thunderbird, and although he already had a guess in his heart, he asked:
"Who are they? What are you doing? ”
"We don't know the attackers either." Dana explained with a pale face:
"They came to our tribe half a year ago and asked us for ...... Quetzalcoatl's egg. ”
"The patriarch rejected them, so they came to attack us with a thunderbird, and after being beaten back, they didn't appear for a long time, but I didn't expect it to come again today."
Rove bowed his head slightly, it seems that the creeper is afraid of this inner ghost, and he is working with the two of them to steal the Quetzalcoatl egg stored at the altar at the top of the pyramid.
"Do you really have Quetzalcoatl's eggs?" Rove's face was full of curiosity.
Dana hesitated for a moment, then she sighed and whispered, "Our tribe has been worshipping that egg for centuries, but it's just a fossil...... A dead egg. ”
"Is it just a fossil?" Rove was a little disappointed, he thought he could really hatch.
To know...... Quetzalcoatl is a legendary magical creature that has long been extinct, and if it can hatch, it will be no less than a Muggle resurrecting a dinosaur.
But if it's just a fossil, the value is greatly reduced.
Wait a minute...... If it's just a fossil, these two wizards don't need to go so hard to grab it, and they specially buy a ghost to poison it?
At this moment, a man as thin as a bamboo pole approached, his black and thick beard, which almost stretched from his chin to his waist, making his shoehorn face look longer.
The man was carrying a large wooden bucket in his hand, and Dana took a deep breath, took out a small knife, and made a cut in her arm, and immediately blood gushed out and landed in the bucket.
The tall man ignored Rove and walked to the next clansman, and soon all the blood of the Indians in the square fell into the barrel.
The man walked over to the patriarch again, a thin old man, with a wrinkled face, his head bald, and all sorts of metal hanging loosely from his necklace at his throat.
Rove looked up, and the old man suddenly took out an egg from his bosom, which was the most beautiful thing the boy had ever seen, and so rich that he thought it was covered with precious stones.
I saw the old man put the fossilized egg into the wooden barrel.
Rove stared intently at the egg, which was slurping blood as if it were alive, and quickly dyed a dark red under the boy's gaze.
Dana, whose face was getting paler and paler, asked worriedly, "I don't know if it's enough?" ”
Rove looked at the girl suspiciously.
"All of us who contribute blood will sacrifice a portion of their lives to Quetzalcoatl, and the more life it absorbs, the more power it bestows on the bearer." Dana explained in a low voice.
"But a lot of people are hurt, and they can't come here to sacrifice."
Rove suddenly realized, no wonder the other party wanted to poison, it turned out to be this hand!
At this time, the wizard in the sky also noticed the egg in the old man's hand...... The egg was hidden at the pyramid altar before, but I didn't expect it to have been transferred long ago.
They have just been attacking for half a day, and they are all doing useless work!
Lightning tore through the night sky and struck the old man with swiftness.
Rove hurriedly raised his wand and shouted, "Armor for protection!" ”
But his iron armor spell obviously couldn't stop the power of lightning, and the lightning fell to the ground, shattering brilliantly, like a pool of water tank bursting and spreading out.
The old man was struck by lightning, the smell of burnt meat overshadowed the aroma, and his howl was drowned out in electricity.
Just when Rove thought that the old man had been electrified, he did not fall to the ground, but instead held the egg in his hand and began to sing in a high-pitched and high-pitched voice.
At this moment, the faces of all the Indians turned pale, and part of their lives had been sacrificed.
Rove suddenly heard a popping sound, and saw a ball of flame gushing out of the egg, drowning the old man, and his song became louder and sharper.
The flames on the old man's body, sometimes hovering, sometimes writhing, chased each other, and soon climbed along the golden tower.
The air also seems to liquefy due to the high heat, and it sparkles in the night.
The old man held Quetzalcoatl's egg aloft, and he opened his mouth and spat out a long tongue of fire, the flames licking at the belly of the Thunderbird.
The ptarmigan screamed and was almost cooked.
Rove stared intently at the egg, so powerful...... What the hell is this?!
Under the attack of the old man, the flames rose high, waving their huge and fiery wings, forcing the thunderbird to retreat.
The two wizards tugged at the chain on the Thunderbird and controlled it to dodge backwards.
In the square, all the Indians cheered, but the shouts of excitement ...... It came to an abrupt end.
The old man suddenly fell to the ground.
He's dead!
As the old man fell to the ground, the Quetzalcoatl's egg also fell to the ground, rolling on the ground.
The cheers instantly turned to screams, and the square was immediately plunged into chaos.
Everything happened so fast, everyone was screaming and stumbling against each other, and some were crying and rushing towards their patriarch.
The Thunderbird also suddenly flew towards the crowd, but it was aiming for Quetzalcoatl's egg.
In the midst of the chaos, Dana, who was standing closer, snatched the egg.
"Rove!"
Dana tossed it high, and the egg fell into the boy's hand, and his whole body was quickly enveloped in flames.
It's hot,
I want to ......
Running naked.
