Chapter 303 - Situation under control
If he stopped firing his crossbow, he would endanger his life and that of his family, but Tito could be sure of something, and that after the battle he would be well rewarded by the empire.
Citizens who were making archaic bolts and spears also had their hands full of sores; some were even injured from handling the cutting metal.
Fortunately, doctors used alcohol and bandages to prevent them from suffering from any infection.
General Alair was extremely worried.
He wondered where the hell the quartz palace reinforcements were if they did not hurry; they could lose the city.
It was at that moment that one of the Nahual messengers arrived in the city from Texcoco, the Nahual messenger could see from the sky the great number of beasts that surrounded the city.
He hurried down to the government palace, where he became human to run to General Alair. When he entered the General’s office, he realized that it was full of tobacco smoke, and there were a lot of reports on the desk.
Alair lifted his face from his desk and could see the Nahual messenger that brought him some hope because any messenger should be from the quartz palace or the city of Texcoco.
"Please pass messenger tell me that you have good news; our city does not seem to hold much longer.
I have reports that come from the South wall where it seems that massive accumulations of bear corpses are being made, which have already begun to jump towards the wall and have caused some casualties. "
The messenger Nahual took from his backpack a report, "General Alair I am a messenger from the city of Texcoco, in the document that I have just given you comes what is related to the supports that are coming.
The emperor, the gods, have destroyed the siege towards the Quartz Palace, and it didn’t take long to free Texcoco.
The god Apollo and the god Quetzalcoatl are heading to the city; they will be arriving in just half an hour.
I hope their soldiers can give their last effort. "
Alair smiled and leaned back in his chair before getting up and leaving while smoking his pipe, left the room, and went to his tribune to give the news.
The message quickly began to spread throughout the city from the soldiers who were on the walls to the people who were working to make supplies.
This brought an air of hope to everyone and also made the entire population begin to do their best, even Tito who was extremely tired felt a rejuvenating breath with the news.
He had to fight as best he could as two gods would help them, the great god Apollo father of Emperor Flavio and the great god Quetzalcoatl the feathered serpent.
Titus was a faithful believer of the god Quetzalcoatl the god Apollo is why he sought to give the best he could so that he could be noticed by the gods and perhaps receive a blessing from him.
Quetzalcoatl turned into his snake form was killing the last beasts with the help of Apollo. It didn’t take long to kill those beasts before embarking on their journey to the city of Teotihuacán.
While Quetzalcoatl was flying through the sky Apollo who was at the head of the feathered serpent, enjoyed the pleasant atmosphere. "You don’t think that killing so much garbage is fun.
I have not enjoyed this sensation for a while, perhaps since we were attacked in Lake Texcoco while we were punished. "
A great laugh echoed in the sky "For you, it is fun for me means a lot of free food, I would tell you to taste the meat of those beast bears, they have a perfect and balanced taste.
But I think you’re too fancy and enjoy cooked meals. "
Apollo scratched his head. "It’s not that it’s Fancy, but only the one who eats raw would tell you that the liver but is too healthy for humans.
For me, it is only a unique flavor, but so far, my desire to eat raw meat comes, you also have to admit that we will have a lot of meat to cook.
I’m sure you’re not going to refuse a few cuts of bear meat marinated with butter and garlic, in a beautiful medium finish, not too raw but with enough juice the beef. "
Quetzalcoatl shook his head. "I would love to try that, and I hope you cook the last time Flavio cooked some meat left the cuts too long in the fire, and the meat lost its juiciness."
The two continued talking until they could see in the distance fire coming from outside the walls of the city of Teotihuacan, Apollo was surprised "Quetzalcoatl be careful with that fire since it is not an ordinary fire.
It is called the Greek fire; it cannot be quenched with water only if a particular combination of sand is used, but I don’t see sand if I can assume that the city is fighting with what it has. "
Quetzalcoatl used his big eyes to look at the city of Teotihuacan "What impresses me is the large number of corpses that I have seen as I have been resisting during these last hours.
I think that after the battle, I hope you help me a little to heal some soldiers. I think they deserved it; I can even see children carrying supplies.
But now the most important thing is that you are the southern part of the northern part of the city. "
Apollo just smiled and jumped towards the north gate, so Quetzalcoatl knocked on the south gate, the soldiers and citizens shouted with joy when they saw their gods arrive, they knew that the fight was about to end.
