Chapter 1232 The Long Night (First update)

Lara Croft came back twice that night.

The first time was at nine o'clock in the evening, and the second time was at midnight.

The sentinels of Supiluliumas and Camilla's squad walked ghostly past the hall full of sleeping tribal warriors and went to greet her and Amon. The former is to confirm the progress of the exploration and then report it to the Skyward Sword command center hovering in orbit, and the latter is to ensure that other members of Camilla's team are aware of the situation. Lara Croft is also quite happy to use the powerful Praetorian Guards. language system to solve puzzles.

The climate of this rainforest is humid and hot, so the aborigines don't need many clothes to keep out the cold, and all clothing is quite cool. The lack of the concept of clothing also led to the fact that aborigines rarely invented armor to resist attacks in history. Even during the Inca Empire, they only used helmets made of wood, copper, bronze, rattan or animal skin to protect themselves. Just add some cotton or small wooden boards to the shirt to provide extra protection.

But tonight, Unuratu had to order more fires to be lit to illuminate the darkness. She had to resist the sudden drop in temperature due to frequent heavy rains, comfort the elderly and children who were awakened by the earthquake with warm food, and then force the tribal warriors to continue to rest. She declared that tomorrow would be the decisive battle. The ancient enemy was approaching, and all warriors must be prepared to fight to the death for their families.

Supiluliumas observed this woman with admiration. He found that Enuratu did the best within the limited knowledge system. Even though she already knew the facts, she still chose something that could unite people's hearts more. means to boost morale.

"I don't understand why you were kicked out of Paititi by the Kukulkan Order even if you have such ability." Supiluliumas' tone was slightly different when he spoke Quechua. All the Imperial Guards are quite handsome, and even in a dim environment, he can still make Enuratu blush. "If you have always been like this, I don't believe that Pedro Domíguez and Holy Trinity can force you into this situation."

"Then I will die on that stone throne, whether Amaru wants it or not." Enuratu's sweat-stained light brown face shone in the firelight, and Supiluliumas noticed her The sadness lingering in the black eyes. "Amaru is a puppet, from beginning to end, even if he doesn't think so. It's the cult that's using him, not him using the cult. When he uses the cult to drive me off the throne, he can't get away. ”

Supiluliumas put the garrison spear in his arms and crossed his arms, intending to listen to what the legitimate queen of Paititi had to say. Enuratu continued, "What the Kukulkan Order can give him can also be taken away. I believe Amaru also realizes this. He wants to resist, but he can't succeed, and neither can I. Success. Just like what happened when the Incas saw the Spaniards in metallic clothes, history will repeat itself in this land."

"So you put your hopes in the next generation, that boy," Supiluliumas said. "I heard you wanted him to succeed you."

Enuratu nodded and did not dwell too much on how the Imperial Guard learned the news.

"Etzli is the child of the last king of Paititi, my husband Seri. If you hadn't come, he would have faced an era of war. In the past, when a strange famine hit Paititi , Seri believed that it was his responsibility to feed the villagers, so he went hunting outside the village alone, hoping to feed the villagers with his prey. Then he died there..." At this point, Enuratu revealed Supilu in his eyes Liumas had never seen anger in her before, and even every word after that was filled with deep-seated hatred. "I don't know the real cause of his death because his brother Amaru was in control of Paititi at the time. Amaru was devastated but I never saw Seri's body and he claimed he had buried his brother as a child. 's hiding place."

She had originally wanted to say something about Ezli, because the child did not fully satisfy her now. But after seeing Supiluliumas's expression, she shut her mouth because she believed that the Guards must have seen her handing the chainsword brought by the Guards to Ezli. The shape of the chain sword is very similar to the maquawit used by elite warriors in South America, but it is sharper and more brutal. Other tribal warriors also got their own chain swords, but none of them had serrated teeth on both sides like that sword. The Imperial Guards had brought that sword specifically for this moment.

It took her a while to calm down, and Supiluli Umas waited for a while.

"It sounds like a very complicated story. There is no information on Amaru's true identity and status in the preliminary investigation report." Supiluliumas raised his eyebrows. Enuratu suddenly realized that he had never seen the sitting guards before, as if standing would make them more comfortable, but Supiluliuma still bent down for her. "My Lord is not willing to collect intelligence in this area because the military power of Paititi and even Peru is quite fragile, but he is still willing to use peaceful means to solve the problem."

"You didn't just do it on the spur of the moment?" Enuratu was startled by this possibility, and suddenly felt a chill running down his spine. The guards waved their hands repeatedly to prevent the woman from doing something unreasonable when she was extremely frightened.

"The awakening of Quetzalcoatl is no small matter. A long time ago, my Lord has been paying attention to catastrophic events that may trigger global extinction, and has made a lot of preparations. Including the mechanical stars I mentioned, there are many warriors and chariots who are about to Come to this forest and fight against the enemy together with you. But the opponents of those warriors are not ordinary people, but more... more evil existences. You have to believe that the challenges this planet has to face are not only Quetzalcoatl, but all Disaster and evil are the enemies of our Lord.”

"A warrior like you?" Enuratu said, "I can't imagine what kind of person can create a warrior like you. Tell me about your master, maybe I will die tomorrow. The regiment was put at gunpoint by Amaru or any other unknown person."

Supiluliumas did not explain the difference between the Praetorian Guards and those genetically modified warriors because he knew that Enuratu would not understand. "You will see the arrival of that era of equality, rationality and science." He said, "My Lord will fight for this all his life, and so will I. He hopes that many people can live in that era, and I also hope that you can get out of here and live in In the glorious age created by our Lord.”

At about three o'clock in the morning, a mysterious figure came to the rebel camp, but no one except the guards who were still awake knew about it. Even the soldiers of Camilla's squad who were also awake could not see him. The stranger stayed here for almost ten minutes, and then like a bubble, it shattered into faint points of light in the firelight and finally disappeared. At about four o'clock in the morning, Lara Croft and Amon returned to the station. The archaeologist was extremely sleepy. After saying hello to Amon, she took the cultural relics and clues harvested tonight and found a place to lie down and fell asleep. She did not see Supiluliumas and Amon at all. They were whispering among themselves.

"We met those mysterious creatures called Yaaxil in the Eye of the Serpent, and Lara Croft thought they might be Pishtako." After a brief exchange with Yusupiluliumas , Amon also seriously gave the information he had obtained.

The so-called Yasok is very similar to the image of Pishtaco in the mythology of the Andes region of South America. This legend can even be traced back to the time when Spanish colonists conquered South America. There are many reasons for this, including the belief in human fat in Andean mythology and stories of Spanish colonists using the fat of native corpses to heal wounds and to lubricate firearms and artillery to prevent the metal from rusting in the Amazon.

Those humans called Yasok by the Paititi painted their skin pale, cut off their lips, and decorated themselves with thorns and animal horns. However, this horrific sight was not Amon's focus.

"I saw religion and witchcraft," he told Supiluliumas. "Those Yasok definitely had a leader. When Lara Croft led me into a cave, we encountered the Yasok. Thok attacked, but we had to retreat due to her poor condition, however they stopped pursuing us as soon as we left. I'm pretty sure what she's looking for is there, and once she's done resting, I'll head out again Go there, kill all the Yathoks and find out the truth."
