Chapter 271 Two Chief Priests

"Praise the Lord God, He is the only one! Praise the king, He is the sacred tree of the alliance! Praise Your Highness, He is the eagle with wings spread!"

The bright sun shines on the earth, and the mighty long wind blows through the city. Under the leadership of the two chief priests, the ruling groups of hundreds of kingdoms all bowed and bowed their heads to salute His Royal Highness in front of them.

In the jurisprudence of the alliance, the supreme god granted the world to the king of the alliance, Grand Tratoani, Avit. Avit then entrusted the land in the lake to Tratoani and Shulot. The main god, the king, and your highness are the order of prayer and praise. No matter how it is called in private, such a formal occasion still has to follow the tradition of the alliance.

"President Ugos, greetings to you! We haven't seen each other for a long time."

"Your Highness, I salute you and applaud your illustrious martial arts!"

Ugos, wearing a feather crown and fine attire, smiled lightly, nodded and clenched his fists.

"For more than a year, the story of His Highness's good fighting skills has been spreading in the capital of the lake. The priests all said that His Highness is the reincarnation of the black wolf who killed and killed, and guarded the supreme sun! The warriors also think that you are a truly brave god. A descendant, a marshal who is good at war, can use the smallest battle damage to get the greatest combat exploits!."

Hearing the familiar words of "Guard the Sun", Shulot's expression changed. He remembered his grandfather's smile and nodded. Then, he looked at the handsome Ugos in front of him, pondering in his heart.

"I haven't seen you in the past two years, but Ugos has calmed down a lot."

"Haha, Your Highness, the ignorant commoners of the capital worship you, saying that you are a thunderous voice, radiant eyes, burly and majestic, and the appearance of a god-man who can smash a tree with a stick, but only I remember. When I first saw you, that Elegant and handsome face like a tigertail orchid? Now you have a dignified demeanor, a face as cold as jade, and an overflowing demeanor, you are still as beautiful as a flower, but like a majestic dahlia!"

Ugos opened his eyes wide, looked at His Highness carefully, and clapped his hands in sincere admiration.

Xiulot's smile faltered, he nodded lightly, and decided to take back the evaluation just now.

"It still doesn't look like it's changed, but it's not bad to have such an alliance chief priest!"

Afterwards, the king looked at the other chief officiant with a much more sincere smile.

"Chief Priest Marvelo, I salute you! I will always remember the teaching you gave me when I was young."

"Your Highness, I greet you! You were born with divine enlightenment and wisdom since you were young. The priests and elders of the Holy City all regard you as a blessing from the gods and the hope of the alliance! Looking at it today, our expectations at that time are still a little bit Conservative."

Mavilo is in his fifties, with strict clothes, thin face and sharp eyes. At this time, he smiled gently, lowered his head seriously, and performed the etiquette to face the gods.

"The eyes of the Lord God are on the alliance. The gods of the capital of the gods have never left. They just hide their bodies, leaving their divinity to circulate among their descendants, just like His Highness's revelation!"

Hearing this, Xiu Luote showed a clear face, this was probably the words of his grandfather.

Mavelo is the head priest of the priesthood of the holy city. He has taught him the knowledge of priests since he was a child, and his ancestors are also glorious nobles in the capital of the lake. He came at the same time as Ugos, the priest of the capital city, obviously representing a certain balance after consideration. Compared with Ugos, he is obviously closer and more trustworthy.

After saluting, Xiulot asked with a smile.

"Two chief priests, how is the scenery along the way?"

"The Leman River flows westward, water birds stay on the river bank, and kestrels undulate in the mountains and forests. This road going south is like a picture scroll written by the Prince of Flowers. The surrounding fields are full of vitality and wildness!"

Ugos sighed. He turned back to look at the majestic Qincong Cancheng, and praised it sincerely.

"The Goddess of the Earth gathers divine power. Qin Cong Can City is surrounded by high walls, and the House of Wind is like a mountain lying on a plate. It is really magnificent! Compared with the capital city in the lake, although it is less populated and less prosperous, it is also a place that can last for a long time. The place to stay. Acambarobang along the way is far away. Although Prince Tepopolo tried his best to stay, I can’t stay for a day until the weather clears.”

Hearing this, Shulot's eyes flashed. He looked at Marvelo.

"How is the high priest? Before the autumn harvest in October, I waited for the group of priests for a long time before going out to inspect. It seems that you have worked hard all the way."

"Hmm. Your Highness, the High Priest is in good health. Hearing His Highness's good news, he has also had drinks with us many times The journey is also quite slow”

"Very good, the Mexica warriors have been waiting for a long time! How are the family members along the way? Have they all entered the city now?"

"There are nearly 10,000 family members of the legion. The food supply along the way is sufficient, and there are warriors to guard them. Half of the first batch have all entered the city to rest. The remaining half are still in the Huayamo Fortress in the north, and it will take several days to arrive. "

Marvelo nodded, and answered rigorously. He has always been in charge of these general affairs accompanying the army, and Ugos just traveled all the way, admiring the scenery and appreciating the beauties.

"Your Highness, we came west along the Leman River. We encountered heavy rains during the rainy season and stayed in the western city-state for half a month. The Western City-State Legion who returned home was very enthusiastic and praised His Highness. Then we landed on the south bank of the Leman River. There was heavy rain again in Acambarobang. Prince Tepopolo offered hospitality, and the group of priests stayed for a few more days before continuing south.”

"Western city-state legion."

Shulot smiled. After all, these legions served in the Northern Army. Although the Western Expedition is over, the influence of the commander will remain in people's hearts, waiting for the day when it will be effective. He pondered for a moment, then asked directly.

"Well, did Prince Tepopolo say something?"

"Prince Tepopolo mentioned the territorial dispute with the Otomi on the north bank of the Leman River. He sought the support of the alliance and expressed goodwill to the priesthood. An envoy will be sent to contact the king."

Mavelo said frankly. Shulot observed Ugos next to him, capturing the changes in his expression. The chief priest, who was less than thirty, turned his body sideways, as if he was still admiring the magnificent Qincong Cancheng. After a while, he turned around and smiled "simplely" at the king.

"Your Highness, the House of Winds of the Prepecha people has been passed down for thousands of years. It is simple and magnificent, and is famous all over the world! The unquenchable holy fire in front of the temple is full of divinity and is also magnificent. Being able to drink holy water in such an ancient temple is a great experience with The sublime communication between the gods is the lifelong wish of every priest! Please give me the support of manpower and material resources to rebuild the temple of the main god on the pyramid."

Ugos laughed with a blink of an eye, with a touch of unrestrained unrestrainedness.

"Your Highness, life is short, and the Lord God promises us happiness! The cumbersome things are far less interesting than holy water, smoke, and beauties in gorgeous clothes! I heard that the beauty in the lake in Prepeca is quite interesting, with a fish-like body. Flexible, good at having sex underwater, the gods have given me the curiosity to explore, please don't blame me, Your Highness."

"Build a temple to manage it. Don't interfere with the kingdom's government affairs. Ask for extravagant pleasures and beauties, and then take the initiative to hand over the handle of indulgence."

Xiulot's expression became serious, and he stared deeply at the old acquaintance in front of him, a faint sense of strangeness came to mind. After a while, he replied with a gentle smile.

"Bless the Lord God! Chief Priest Ugos, building a temple is a matter of course. Now is the slack season, I will send people to start preparations. However, the great temple in the capital city in the lake has been carefully built for decades, and the temple in Qincongcancheng has already With the Yakata Pyramid as the foundation, the rest just needs to be slowly built"

Building a temple is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Xiuluote does not plan to build a large-scale construction project until the people are rich. At present, it is still necessary to make minor repairs on Yakata and complete the construction of the main temple.

"As for the fun of exploring the mystery, it is naturally the grace promised by the Lord God! If it is not busy with government affairs, I would also like to taste the holy water and the sacred smoke with the Chief Priest. Well, Ugos, there is also a royal mountain in the east of the land of the lake. It takes only ten days to go back and forth between the hot springs. You can take the beauties there."

Shulot patted Ugos on the shoulder with a smile, and the other party bowed his head and saluted with a smile.

"Thank you for the king's gift!"

Mavelo waited quietly, and did not speak again until the two of them had finished speaking.

"Your Highness, according to the latest news ten days ago, there has been a breakthrough in the war situation in the east! During the autumn harvest in October, the Tlaxcalan legion was a little unstable, and the mobilized militia returned home. The king then mobilized the army and gathered 30,000 soldiers. The samurai and 30,000 militiamen besieged the fallen fortresses in the east of Watts Tepek State.

The alliance built more than a dozen trebuchets for bombardment, dispatched three thousand longbow warriors to shoot vigorously, and threw hundreds of explosive magic fires, and finally regained the fortress on the border in one fell swoop! More than two thousand Tlaxcalan warriors were killed and thousands of enemy militiamen were captured. The main army of the Tlaxcalans once tried to rescue them, and confronted the royal army of the Union on the tributary of the upper reaches of the Talsas River, but in the end there was no decisive battle.

After the fall of the fortress, the Tlaxcalans retreated eastward and sent messengers to sue for peace. After two years of fighting, even with successive victories, the treasury of the alliance has been empty. The warriors suffered a lot of casualties and were very tired. The king then agreed to the Tlaxcalan contract, led the legion back to the capital, and dismissed the conscripted militia.

Lord God Bless the Alliance! This vast and long war will finally end with our complete victory! "

"Blessed by the Lord God, the alliance is invincible!"

Shulot was in high spirits and prayed loudly. The two chief priests echoed in chant tones at the same time.

"Praise you, the supreme Lord God Vizilopochtli! He holds lightning, stands on the sacred mountain of snakes, and proclaims with a thunderous voice: devout Mexica, serve me, I will give you gifts The leader of the Wanbu, I promise you the whole world!"

The prayer of praise was spread far and wide, and the priests in the rear chanted together. The pious voice resounded in the sky and echoed in everyone's hearts, even Jadiri bowed his head. After a while, Shulot stopped praying and asked in a deep voice.

"The coronation war is finally over, and the sacrifice to return to the main god will begin soon. When is the main god's sacrifice scheduled?"

"In January next year, it will be combined with the New Year's Eve."

There was a sincere smile on Mavelo's serious face, and even his white teeth gleamed in the sun.

"The most sacred sacrifice, the grandest ceremony. At that time, it will be a great sacrifice that has never been seen before!"
