Aztec Eternals

Chapter 535: Appointed

The sky was low, and the dark clouds of the rainy season shrouded the sky, blocking the noon sun. There was no sparkling light on Lake Texcoco, only boats hurried away, sheltering from possible showers. In the vast lake, there is no wind or rain in the capital city, as if it were frozen in the deep world. The magnificent Great Temple fell in the shadow of the Tianhe River, standing quietly like a mountain, and floating and sinking like a dark sea.

The towering chief palace is located next to the magnificent Great Temple. The curtain of the gods hangs down without wind, twisting the body of the main **** and falling obliquely to the wall. The frescoes of the gods are dim, blurring the face of the main god, and sinking into the corner... Everything today seems to carry some kind of ominous omens.

"it's dark?"

After an unknown amount of time, the sleeping elder in the dark sea slowly opened his turbid eyes and looked at the dark and stagnant sky. He was lying on the soft and warm cotton bed, but he could not feel any comfort or temperature. This body is already too old, almost leaving his soul, and it is only reluctantly connected by the last breath.

Shadow Chevali held the clay pot and stood silently beside the elder, with a rare worry on his face. There was silence in the hall, only the breath of death and the whispers of decay. It wasn't until a while later that the elder's eyes regained a trace of clarity, and he noticed the shadow beside him.

"You're back?"

"Yes, elder."

Shadow bowed his head, saluted to the shadow's master, and put away all his expressions.

"how?"

"The high priest was in the city of Cholula and drank the potion... A part of the guards escorted his body and headed south to the camp of His Royal Highness Sherlot. The rest of the guards raised their troops in Cholula and set fire to revenge."

Shadow replied in a deep voice, without any emotion. This was the last message he got before he left.

"High Priest, go..."

The elder nodded slowly, and his expression changed slightly. Under the shadow's service, he slowly sat up and looked at the gloomy and majestic Great Temple. This spectacle that has been passed down for less than a hundred years, the center of the alliance theocracy, has once again lost the administrator who occupies the throne, and is about to lose its owner who is almost the same age as it.

"Well, that's right... Little Shuter, you left as agreed for a few days... Now, should you be here? Say hello to everyone for me? I'm coming too..."

The elder lowered his eyes and murmured for a while. Then, he looked at the shadow and stretched out his hand.

"Chevalli, give me a bottle of energy potion."

"..."

Chevali was silent for a while, then took out a bottle of potion with a red pottery cap and handed it to the elder tremblingly. This potion uses potent herbs to overdraw the vitality of the body to maintain lucidity and sharpness for a period of time. And with the body of the elder, drinking such a potion...

"Shadow, send a few messengers to summon the priests and elders of the High Priest Order, as well as my son Kakamazin. Well, inform Elder Uger first."

The elder was holding the potion but did not drink it, a faint smile appeared on his face. He calmly commanded a few words, then lowered his old eyes and closed them to recuperate.

Soon, the messengers left the palace in a hurry with the most urgent will and dispersed. Within three or four quarters of an hour, the elder priest, Ugel, was the first to arrive with a bamboo basket on his back, panting. In his bamboo basket, there are still towels, palm fans, and some items for serving people.

"Respected elder, Ugel greets you!"

Uger lay on the ground, respectfully, and kowtowed to the elder a few times. His heart was beating so fast, and there was sweat on his head.

The elder looked calm, and quietly looked at the slightly fat elder priest. It wasn't until the other party was careful and raised his eyes to take a peek that he smiled faintly.

"Ugel, get up! Put the bamboo basket behind you aside. You will be the leader of the High Priestess in the future. It's really awkward to carry these on your back."

"Yeah... ah! Elder? I'm here... in charge of the High Priestess?"

Hearing the second half of the sentence, Ugel was shocked on the spot, even his mouth opened wide. He raised his head blankly, stared at the smiling face of the elder, and stammered completely.

"This... I... you... High Priest?... This, huh?!"

"The high priest Shuter, who was already in the city of Cholula, was murdered by the priests and elders."

The elder lowered his eyes and calmly told the truth.

"The affairs of the high priests of the capital will be handed over to you from now on."

"Ah this! I, no, I, that, I..."

Uger was incoherent, and he didn't even know what he was saying, but the elder seemed to understand. He shook his head expressionlessly and said lightly.

"This is my will. Soon, when the priests and elders arrive, I will officially announce. You prepare first..."

"...As ordered, elder."

Uger fell to the ground, kowtowed a few more times, then stood up, put down the bamboo basket, and stood beside him. The high priest Shuter died suddenly, and he was actually chosen by the elders to be the next high priest?

"...Well, I'm not dreaming, am I?..."

Uger's thoughts were not right, he thought about it for a while, and became more and more suspicious. He stretched out his fat hand and twisted his thigh fiercely. Then, his face twitched suddenly, and he let out a low pained cry.

"what..."

More than ten pairs of eyes looked over at the same time. Ugel looked at everyone, blinked, and immediately shut up.

In the spacious chief hall, everyone was originally sad and with tears in their eyes, but at this time they were all disturbed by Uger's voice. The elder priest of the Sun God line Tonatiu raised his brows, the elder priest of the Vulcan line was wide-eyed, the elder priest of the God of War line Yazar gritted his teeth, and the elder priest of the main **** line Akka Pu lowered his eyes, the corners of his lips raised by the elder priest of the royal family, Komo, while the elder Kakamazin glanced at the elder, then looked at the elder worriedly... It turns out that, at some point in time, the capital of the lake mastered the The nobles of real power have all arrived.

"...Well, that's it. The high priest has gone to the kingdom of God."

The old man's expression remained unchanged, his face was unusually rosy, and his eyes were bright. He looked around at everyone, his vicissitudes and heavy eyes fell, and all the elders bowed their heads and saluted respectfully. And beside him, there was an inconspicuous empty pot with a red pottery lid.

"The priest and elder Ugel has presided over the academic affairs for many years. He has rich experience and careful thought, and has never made any omissions. He made great contributions to the suppression of the rebellion in the city-state of Texcoco. After that, he went to the north and presided over Hilot. Peck's conversion ceremony was quite effective... I am very relieved that the High Priests of the Alliance has been handed over to him."

The old man's face was calm, and he said a lot. Afterwards, he glanced at Uger, who was trembling slightly, nodded calmly and affirmatively, and issued the decree.

"Starting today, Priest Elder Ugel will take over as High Priest!"

The chief hall ~www.readwn.com~ was silent for a while, and needles could be heard. The priests and elders looked at each other in dismay, and their expressions changed.

The noble Sun God Elder Tonatiu frowned deeply, almost in a line. The outspoken God of War elder Yazar blushed and wanted to say something, but was silent under the elder's gaze. And the young Lord God Elder Acap lowered his head and hid all the ambitions in his heart behind his gentle face.

The sun god, the **** of war, and the main **** are the three most important priesthoods. The three elders are also the strongest contenders for high priest. At this moment, none of them dared to speak out against it, and the position of the high priest was appointed!

"very good."

After a while, the elder smiled faintly and commanded in a deep voice.

"Since that's the case, you are here to pay homage to the new high priest!"

The hall was quiet again. The slightly fat Uger stood in front of the crowd with a blank expression. The priests and elders glanced at each other, and finally knelt down one after another, bowed their heads, and saluted the new high priest.

"Blessed by the Lord! Greetings to you, High Priest Uger!"

Seeing the many priests and elders kneeling in front of him, Ugel was shocked, and a feeling he had never felt before hit his heart, causing all his pores to open comfortably. At this moment, he looked at the drowsy sky, and only felt that the dark clouds hanging down in the sky were all gifts from the Lord God, and desserts with black persimmons!

However, after a few breaths, a happy blush appeared on Uger's face. He was about to raise his scepter in response, but he didn't have a scepter in hand. In a hurry, he slowly raised his fat hand, drew the word "囵" for the sun hummingbird, and shouted loudly.
