The morning sun illuminates the earth, and joyful songs fly in the sky. Burning sandalwood wafts between heaven and earth, and also haunts the celebratory palace district. The divine breath enveloped every street, so the divine power of the Lord God was omnipresent, and it also descended on Shulot.

Wearing a feather crown on his head and a gorgeous priest's uniform, the young man followed behind the high priest in the costume of the gods and solemnly came to the Montezuma Palace. Afterwards, he turned out a small golden eagle poking his head out of the large sacrificial uniform, gave it to the girl in white with a smile, and took the opportunity to hold Alyssa in his arms.

The girl let out a low "Yeah". She carefully protected Mengdiao, and clumsily tried to escape, but she was kissed on her ear, and her face flushed. Avette coughed lightly, and little Avellot was also struggling in his arms. Shulot blinked at the girl, shook the opponent's slender hand, and returned to the team to stand up.

Avet put on his royal clothes and said goodbye to his blushing daughter. He didn't bring his beloved Alyssa because he didn't want her to see blood.

After a while, everyone walked out of the palace. The king was majestic at the front, the high priest was solemn at the back, and the boy fell two steps behind and looked up at the great temple not far away. His gaze rested on the palace of the chief minister. There, a tall and old figure was faintly visible, standing like a mountain and calm like a sea.

Step into the temple area, and the temples along the way ignite sacred flames and raise the green smoke of pine branches. The priests began to sing hymns and play mystical ocarinas to welcome the dignitaries.

The main **** walks in the world, and when he stops again, it is already a magnificent temple. Shirot climbed to the top of the magnificent temple and observed the changes in the temple. The golden statue of the God of War is as tall and bright as always, surrounded by countless flowers and gems, and the three-color feathers of the Feathered Serpent are inserted on the back; the sculpture of the God of Rain has removed the decoration, and the flag of the God of War is arranged around it, as if shrouded in the glory of the Lord God. under.

Seeing this, Shu Luo nodded. The changes in the temple were all negotiated in advance by the high priests, and had no meaning. The supreme main **** will eventually rise to a concept **** without a **** statue, but it is not yet time.

Afterwards, everyone took their places with solemn expressions. The high priest stood at the forefront, holding a sacrificial obsidian dagger, leading the twelve priests, arranged around the two sacrificial stones. A little later, Avet sat high on the throne, gazing majestically at the ant-sized subjects.

The young man stood calmly at the back, looking at the chief palace that was far away, his eyes meeting the equally calm elder. Immediately, he sincerely bowed his head to salute, and his eyes fell into the distance again. Condescending, everything is so clear.

At the foot of the temple are the people who rejoice for God. The priests sang and danced devoutly, as if communicating with the gods. The nobles were sitting on the seats, and their expressions were a little nervous, and the chatting and laughing were not as relaxed as last time. The samurai engaged in games and rituals, waving their arms and roaring in excitement. The commoners sang and danced happily, sang poetry and drama, and performed the myths and legends of the Mexica.

The only thing that cannot be integrated into the kingdom of God on this earth is the foreign envoys. They looked in awe and solemn expressions, silently watching the Otomi nobles who were escorted in.

The nobles took their places in the sacred place, and the citizens of the capital waited eagerly, and the first act was the opening.

The king raised the topaz scepter high and greeted the gods, and tens of thousands of people in the temple area knelt down and saluted together like a wave that spread out. Afterwards, Avit opened his arms, greeted the cheers of the crowd, and felt the supreme enjoyment. In the monstrous sound, his eyes were bright, his chest was surging, and his mouth was laughing happily. This is mesmerizing hearty!

The cheers continued for a full quarter of an hour. Then, the high priest raised the sun scepter high and recited aloud in the quaint tone of the holy city.

"The sun rises, and the Lord God Huitzilopochtli rises to the highest! He will devour the darkness and control all things! He will rule over everything and be omnipotent!"

Hearing this obscure divine word, a few nobles stood in front and nodded silently. Under the temple, most people did not understand and still cheered the same. Immediately, the low drums sounded, the sharp snails blew, and the crowd gradually quieted down. Only the priests chanted loudly and sang the name of the gods.

The priests call upon the gods, and when the gods arrive, the second act is the sacrifice.

It started with the sacrifice of the pitch. In the four and a half underground human sacrifice stadiums, the Otomi nobles competed fiercely and fought brutally. But today, their endings are all doomed: the victors will be sacrificed in the temple, the losers will be slaughtered in nameless, and they will inevitably die.

Watching the wonderful game, the nobles gradually threw themselves into it, sometimes cheering and sometimes cursing. Their emotions were finally appeased, and their hearts were slightly satisfied.

At the same time, in the small temple, hundreds of nobles in Tracopan were dyed blue all over and silently sacrificed to the main god, warning the big nobles with a low profile.

Next, the sacrifice of the rain **** was changed. The ritual of sacrifice became simpler, and the scale of sacrifice was greatly reduced. On the platform in front of the Temple of Rain, there was only one duel after another, to please the great God of War. Under the fair confrontation and unfair equipment, the captured Otomi leaders were killed in sequence, adding more blooming blood flowers to the ceremony.

The Mexica warriors in the audience enthusiastically praised the warrior's death, and sang the prestige of the God of War enthusiastically. Unconsciously, the rain **** faded to the edge of the corner, erasing the sense of existence in the ceremony.

While watching all this, Shilot nodded calmly.

Among all the sacrifices, the most important is the sacrifice in front of the main temple. The twelve priests and elders were divided into two groups, offering sacrifices at the same time and calling for prayers alternately.

"The Lord God is supreme and supreme. He forgives the aristocrat Mitrant of the Otomi people, accepts his final conversion and devout repentance, and leads him to the beautiful kingdom of God, where he can enjoy eternal peace!"

"The Lord God is omnipotent. He judged Oratia, the goddess of Hirotepec, condemned the sins of his blood and the crimes of rebellion, and threw him into the burning abyss to suffer forever!"

Hei Yaoshi's dagger slashed again, and the sacred liquid spilled down the stone steps. The pious heart carries the soul and is carried away by the holy fire, and the sinful heart sinks into the soul and rolls down the stone steps. These were the first offerings to the new gods, with two distinct deaths.

Hearing the eternal judgment of the priest and seeing the scene of the rising and falling of the soul, all the nobles, warriors and commoners were shocked in their hearts. At this moment, the Lord God began to replace the God of War and the God of the Sun, becoming a more supreme being, deeply penetrating the hearts of the people of the capital.

The elders make sacrifices in sequence until the sun rises in the middle, and the third act is the announcement.

From noon to noon, the hot sun radiates infinite power, just like the supreme **** in mythology.

At the top of the great temple, the high priest raised the sun scepter again and announced loudly. Immediately, up and down the Great Temple, hundreds of priests repeated one after another, shouting continuously.

"The sun rises, and the Lord God Huitzilopochtli rises to the highest! He is the highest and the greatest, and he is omnipotent. He devoured the body of the Feathered Serpent and occupied the priesthood of the old god. The Feathered Serpent is dead!"

Hearing this sentence, there was a "bang" under the towering Great Temple, and the faces of the citizens of the capital city were dazed and terrified, and they questioned each other in disbelief. Then, the priests who had been arranged to talk about the transformation of the mythology, word by word, instilled new ideas over and over again.

Shirot smiled slightly. This is the proposal he insists on, Feathered Serpent God must die and must not be relegated to a saint! From then on, His body and priesthood belonged to the Lord God. And all the coastal tribes who believe in the Feathered Serpent must be converted to completely erase the image of the Feathered Serpent God, and those who do not obey will be crusade and eradicated!

Hearing the boy's unusually firm proposal, although the high priest started to shake his head, he finally nodded in agreement, "to guard against future threats from the east."

"The sun has risen, and the Lord God Huizilopochtli has risen to the highest! He is the highest and the greatest, and he is omnipotent. He rules over all the gods, holds all the vocations and powers, and he is the **** of the gods!"

Hearing this, the bright Great Temple was filled with surprise and exclamation. The patron saint has been upgraded again, and the people of the capital have joy from their hearts, but also have incomprehensible doubts. The prepared priests led the people, sang the majesty of the Lord God together, and removed all doubts with their sincere prayers.

This time, the singing of praise lasted for two full moments, and the old concept was covered in the chirping. The high priest looked solemn and swept his feet like a god. He tapped his divine scepter, and the chant suddenly resounded. After a while, he nodded with satisfaction after seeing the immersed expressions of the people.

"The sun rises, and the Lord God Huitzilopochtli ascends to the highest! He is all-powerful and powerful. He gives victory and land, and he desires blood and battle.

All things will eventually wither, and the warrior will return to the kingdom of God. Only the Holy Blood can make the sun perfect, destroy the evil moon, and illuminate the endless darkness! Only the battle of gods can make the Lord God devour all the gods and give us the almighty and eternal protection... Holy blood, battle of gods! Holy blood, battle of gods! "

At this time, under the sacred Great Temple, the shouting has reached the highest level. The nobles had long expected and their faces were clear; the warriors were bloodthirsty and eager, and their expressions were excited; the commoners were terrified and their eyes were dazed... All emotions were gradually led to fervent and fiery shouts, until tens of thousands of people were hoarse. Shout out:

"Holy blood, God's battle! Holy blood, God's battle!..."

The sky-shattering sound shook distant birds and shook the waters of Texcoco's lake. Along with the spreading shouts, the priests of each community also led the believers and joined the strong resonance, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, hundreds of thousands, and even the entire lake capital!

The call of war was like continuous thunder, blasting in the mighty world. The boundless prestige strikes, with the blood and fire will of the nation!

The foreign envoys and merchants slumped to the ground in horror, trembling with fear, and prayed deeply in the direction of the Great Temple. Intense restlessness and fear rose in the hearts of every Gentile, crushing their will and determination to resist.

After a long time, the terrifying cries gradually ceased. The faces of every citizen of the capital were filled with the reverence and obedience of the group, and so was Shulot. His face was flushed red from the roar, and a heat wave of excitement surged in his chest, and it took a long time to calm down a little.

Later, in the community of the capital city in the lake, the priests no longer praised the Feathered Serpent God in the New Year, but praised the ascended Lord God. The Lord God is above all the gods and is omnipotent!

However, the long-term concept cannot be changed temporarily. In the face of the new teachings, the commoners became confused again, and at this time they needed an authoritative endorsement, which really appeared in front of them.

When the praises of the community sound, the spokesperson of God travels, and the fourth act is the parade.

On the Great Temple, the High Priest still presides over the sacred sacrifices. King Avit stood up from the throne and pointed at Shuluot his divine scepter, and the boy followed. He looked at the elder again, and the figure in the palace was no longer there.

The two walked down the red-stained stone steps, sat on the high shoulders, and were carried by the loyal warriors to patrol the city majestically.

The king represents the main god, the sun **** and the war god. His shoulders are unusually broad, requiring dozens of people to carry the burden. Before and after the gorgeous shoulders, there is a lofty altar built. On the altar at the front are the golden marks of the sun and the hummingbird, two meters high, with an outer circle and an inner dagger. The rear altar is filled with three-color feathers of Feather Serpent God, inlaid with emeralds of wisdom.

A few meters away, Xiulote understood in his heart.

The King's Parade announced the expansion of the priesthood of the Lord God, and the feathers and turquoise symbolized that the Lord God ate the Feathered Serpent. From then on, the main **** became stronger, gained the wisdom of the Feathered Serpent, and controlled peace and prosperity.

The king's shoulders marched majestically all the way, and the solemn priests declared loudly: The king has brought the decree, and the Feathered Serpent God has been swallowed by the Lord God!

Feathered Serpent is one of the four traditional gods, and it is also an important prayer object in New Year's sacrifices. Hearing this, the civilians along the way looked uneasy and whispered dazed and panic-stricken whispers. The warriors were in high spirits, chanting the prayers of the **** of war. The nobles surrounded him with enthusiasm, smiling and sincerely greeting the king.

Shulot followed behind, and vaguely heard various praises, with the simplicity and roughness unique to this era: "The king has the determination and power to kill his brother!" "The king is a ruthless roaring jaguar!" The king is like a solitary eagle flying high!" "The king has the piety and courage to sacrifice himself!"...

Hearing this, the young man was quite amused and couldn't help laughing out loud, which immediately attracted the attention of the rest of the nobles.

So, just for a moment, Shirot was also surrounded by simple praises.

"His Royal Highness beheaded the marshal and shot the former king to death. It is truly extraordinary and valiant!"

"His Royal Highness is not close to beauty, but only loves Confucius and powerful warriors and craftsmen, like the great Toltecs!"

"His Royal Highness is as beautiful as a flower, which makes people admire, and I wish to protect you for life!"

"His Royal Highness has received divine enlightenment, and can stand for seven days and seven nights, listening to the voice of the gods!"...

Shulot's face was stiff, and he forced a smile on his face. Until suddenly, all the praises suddenly fell silent, only the sincere cheers of the commoners.

Teenagers feel something. He turned his head and saw the elder's shoulders slowly coming from another intersecting street.

The elder was sitting high on the altar, his face was calm, without a trace of turbulence. His hair was pale, his back was still straight, and his eyes swept across without emotion.

In the sight of God, the nobles immediately silenced and remained silent. The warriors, however, were excited, with reverence for the hero. And the commoners cheered and praised thoroughly, singing the sun that illuminated them for fifty years! ...Everyone saluted the elder one after another, and the elder nodded slightly, calmly facing the more excited cheers.

In front of the shoulders of the elders, the priests held up the symbols of the main god, and behind the trumpets were the symbols of the gods. Among them, the rain **** is the most obvious, from the equal two gods, downgraded to the main **** and the subordinate god.

In the distance, Shiloh bowed deeply to the elder and bowed his head.

The purpose of the elder's parade while sick is to announce the promotion of the Lord God's status. From then on, the supreme Lord God is higher than the gods, and absorbs all the priesthoods until he becomes the only true God!

In the end, the king and the elders saluted each other at the same time, and the different two parade groups passed by in this way.

On the shoulders, it was like a **** traveling, and Shulot was filled with emotion.

He looked down at the people who were crawling along the way, savored the eyes of reverence and obedience, felt the supreme power, and also experienced the spiritual impact brought by power: everything can be decided in one word, and the words follow the law, this is sacred Supreme!

The majestic emotion throbbed in the boy's chest, making him want to let out a long whistle, and a smile of enjoyment appeared on the corner of his mouth. After a while, remembering the old man just now, the young man woke up and restrained his unbridled emotions.

Next, Shirou fell into deep thought.

He followed behind the king, silently watching all the changes, and thus seeing something more essential. Nobles, warriors, commoners, different classes, have different psychological changes when facing the religious reform. This change depends on their devotion to the gods and their ability to control power. The commoners are the most devout, the nobles hold the most power, and the warriors are the most reliable.

As for the priest class ~www.readwn.com~, the ongoing reforms actually promote the rapid expansion of their power and also promote the larger and larger priesthood group. Even if all the priests of the gods belonged to the main god, the number of low-level priests was still insufficient.

Because the priests have penetrated deeply into the lives of the people. They are to preside over the daily rituals, preside over the grand rituals once every ten days, regularly accept the confessions of the people, and also accept the parade of the Holy Land. More importantly, the priests must fully implement the religious law in the society according to the code!

The new religion became more and more important in the daily life of the Mexicas, with lasting and profound effects on all groups. This is also the characteristic of strong monotheism, which penetrates deeply into the lives of the people. And the deeper one goes into life, the more the power of the priest expands. In the foreseeable future, priests will eventually become the core of society, guiding people's words and deeds.

"The power of priests developed to the extreme is like the power of the gentry at the peak of the Ming Dynasty. It needs enough checks and balances!"

Xiulott pondered silently, thinking about the unknown future, and his thoughts also extended into the distance.

After a long time, the boy came back to his senses amid the cheers. He listened carefully. It was the unanimous praise of all people to the Lord God, the sincere praise of countless people to the elders, and the praise of many people to the choice of the king... This difference in quantity and emotion shows the ranking of people's hearts. And among these praises, very few people mentioned His Highness.

"In the future, I'm just on the road!"

Thinking of this, Shiloh smiled slightly. He looked around and saw that he had reached the junction of the main city and the north city, and it was time to leave. So, in front of everyone, His Royal Highness saluted the king respectfully, and then left in a low-key manner.

The young man left the divine kingdom of supreme loneliness and went to the world of beautiful gatherings. He is going to find a pure girl in white, and snuggle up in the new year of the heart-to-heart.
