Chapter 17 Ceremony (16)
Tessomok looked back at Ella and shrugged: "They don't seem to appreciate it."
Ella muttered helplessly: "You Aztlans are really disgusting."
The development of things has exceeded Ella's expectations - no, in fact, from the poisonous warriors attacking the flying Zelans, until they were ambushed here, everything that happened that night was beyond Ella's expectations. Logically, Osomalite's attack should have been chosen when she fell asleep late at night; Logically, she divided her troops to suppress the streets and should not be ambushed by the enemy in advance. She vaguely felt that she had made a wrong judgment at some critical point. But she couldn't think of where it was.
"I have never tried to persuade the enemy who stood in front of me. That was the first time just now." Tsosomok's eyes showed murderous intent, "Since they are ungrateful, let them understand the Aztlans' force!"
In response to Tessomok's voice, more than 200 warriors under his command "sweeping" and put on a stance to fight. Tessomok looked behind him and asked Ella with interest: "Sir God's Envoy. What action should he use to fight with this weapon?"
"It's OK, it's no different from your weapons," said Ella. "But I usually use my sword to hit the shield and make a sound in my country."
The Aztlan warrior holding the iron sword and shield followed Ella's actions. For a moment, the "bang bang" sounded like a war drum. The local residents surrounding Ella were shocked by this momentum and did not dare to step forward for a moment.
"Don't be afraid! They smelled the incense and had no magic power anymore!" A strong man walked out of the crowd. He held a thick wooden stick inlaid with obsidian blades in his hand, and his aura was very imposing. "Follow me up!"
He waved the stick left and right, making it make a whirring sound in the air. Influenced by its momentum, the local residents began to approach Ella step by step.
"I don't know how to live or die, I'll teach him a lesson."
Tessomok said to a warrior. The warrior nodded, protected the shield in front of him, and walked over to the man. The man's eyes suddenly became fierce and he swung the wooden stick and smashed it down hard according to the shield!
"This weapon is called Maquowit, and it is the best weapon in Aztland. It can usually be used by only the most elite warriors." Tessomok turned around and explained to Ella as if nothing had happened. "Maybe it looks simple in your eyes, Lord God, but its power is enough to smash the shield with one blow."
At that time, the man's Makwait hit the iron shield hard. The Aztlan warrior under the iron shield fell to the ground due to this blow, but he quickly let out a loud shout and pushed the man back with the iron shield!
The man obviously did not expect his attack to be blocked in this way. He raised his weapon and wanted to launch another attack, but several fragments fell from Maquowit at this time. He twisted his weapon in surprise and found that the obsidian blades inlaid on it had all broken, turning from a sawing sword to an ordinary wooden stick.
"Of course, only wooden shields." Tessolomuk added with a smile, "we had suffered losses because of this when we were in England."
"It's magic...why is there magic?"
Ella heard the residents whispering below. The fragmentation of Maquowit caused a severe blow to their morale, and even the man who was leading the way took a few steps back. He looked at the iron shields in fear, as if he was looking at some monster.
"My subordinates had magic at that time, so they were easy to deal with. But for these civilians, weapons made of this material were something they could not handle anyway."
Tessosomok sneered and made a "kill" gesture.
"Wait a minute! Tessosomok!" Ella stopped him, "It's not a good idea to be hostile to the local residents now."
Tessomok's body stagnated. He tried hard to put away the murderous intent in his heart, and then shouted at the residents again: "Do you understand? You are not our opponents! But I don't treat you as enemies! Now take away the weapons, we still have something to talk about!"
Someone exclaimed in the crowd: "I understand, it's the Feather Snake God! This is the Feather Snake God's magic! So the incense against the Sun War God's magic will be ineffective!"
"Yes, it's the magic of the feathered snake god." Tessosomok didn't defend himself and laughed, "Is there any way you can deal with it?"
"Open the arranged magic circle!" Another person shouted in the crowd, "Treat them in the magic circle!"
A circle of light suddenly appeared on the ground, surrounding Ella and others - these residents seemed to have applied paint to the ground in advance. This was just the innermost circle. As the outer circle gradually appeared, the magic circle finally covered dozens of nearby buildings!
Tessomox was shocked. He had never seen such magic before, and the fact that these civilians could use magic made him even more incredible. Ella had already seen some clues: although she could not see the full picture of this huge magic circle, the symbols such as the pentagram, hexagram, Tragrammaton, Anaphaxeton on it were surprisingly consistent with the magic circle drawn by the savage summoning Movarani in overtime!
"It's the magic of summoning rebuttals." Ella frowned and explained to Tessomok, "I just don't know what they want to call out?"
But I heard the chanting of the civilians in the magic circle, which was chaotic, emotional, and completely consistent:
"The bird of Hermes is my name, and it eats my wings to win my heart."
"This spell?"
Ella's brow frowned deeper. This is a very famous spell that summons demons. It has appeared in fairy tales that Ella read when she was a child. Later, in extensive reading, she found that the spell actually came from an alchemy book; and after further deciphering alchemy, she already knew that this sentence was actually just describing the reaction of a certain substance and mercury steam, which was completely incompatible with summoning demons. What does this spell mean to summon? Will it really work?
The chanting gradually stopped. Although the magic circle was still shining, nothing happened inside. However, the civilians seemed to have received some strong help, and each one was cheered up.
