Chapter 12 Feathered Serpent (10)

Izcoatl rushed closer and closer, but Dan didn't dare to take action.

"Ten percent? Are you sure?" He asked with some fear, "Isn't there any other way than this kind of bluff?"

"There is another way."

Dan was overjoyed: "What? Say it quickly!"

"You and Izkoatl will have a head-on confrontation. We will assist you on the side." Ella replied calmly, "I remember you said that your magic level is almost at the elf level."

Dan was about to cry but had no tears: "I said so, but the elf level and the elf level are not the same thing! And the protection of Hermes is not suitable for the battlefield!"

Ella stopped talking. Seeing Izcoatl getting closer and closer, Dan had no choice but to close his eyes and drop the crowbar from the altar!

Baslik appeared, wearing a red comb on its head, spreading its wings dyed green, its scales shining like gold with a metallic luster, and its huge body coiled around the altar.

It stuck out its scarlet tongue, exposed its sharp fangs, and stared at Izcoatl below from the sky.

This is a creature summoned by the magic power of Dan. Not only is it very different from Quetzalcoatl in appearance, but it is also far from Izkoatl's opponent in terms of strength. But Izkoatl was stunned for a moment.

. He slowly raised his head, looked at Baslik's gong-like eyes with disbelief, suddenly turned around, and dived into the ground!

"Run away! I really scared him!" Dan was so excited that he almost fell off the altar, "What's going on? This snake is completely different from Quetzalcoatl, right?"

"I'll explain it to you later. Anyway, let's catch up quickly!"

"Catch up?" Dan was suddenly in trouble again, "He went underground and couldn't find anyone?"

Before he finished speaking, another shock came. Near the city gate, Izcoatl jumped out of the ground with a strange scream. His whole body was surrounded by fire, and he rolled several times in pain on the ground.

Finally the fire was put out.

Dan experienced this series of changes one after another, and his mind went blank: "What's going on? King of Sweden, didn't you say there are no more traps?"

"There are no traps in the direction approaching the altar, but there are still traps in the direction of escaping from the altar. Alfred and I were worried that Tesosomok and Bjorn would join forces to attack the city, so we prepared many traps in the combat meeting

, now it finally comes in handy." Ella raised her head, "Let me see if Izcoatl still has the courage to continue digging holes after falling into these three traps!"

Izkoatl climbed up from the ground in pain and stumbled a few steps. After a while, he saw the giant snake coiled on the altar again. Baslik spit out the letter, and Izkoatl

Ter's pupils immediately dilated, as if he had seen the most terrifying thing in the world. He lowered his head habitually and wanted to get into the ground, but as soon as his eyes touched the ground, he immediately took several steps back in fear. Then, his mouth

He let out a crazy scream and stumbled out of the door on his feet!

"Dan, you said something right before - even if you scare him away, if you don't capture his ability, he will continue to cause trouble." Ella turned to stare at Dan, her eyes became sharp,

"But, this 'if' does not exist. Since I want to attract him, then I am sure to kill him. Let Basilik move and take me to catch up - this is a military order!"

Under those sharp eyes, Dan suddenly felt that he was extremely small, and Ella in front of him became a giant that could crush her. He opened his dry mouth and asked: "King of Sweden...are you still prepared to do it?"

How many traps were there?”

"There is only the last one left, but it is also the most deadly one - I repeat, catch up, this is a military order!"

Baslik moved. It stretched its head under the altar, and Ella stepped on its forehead. It caught it firmly, and then let Ella sit down and hug its head. Then,

Dan also jumped down. Baslik bore the weight of two adults as if nothing had happened, held his head high, and chased after Izcoatl, who was escaping.

Baslik continued to increase his speed. The back of the snake was not suitable for riding, and the most stable place was occupied by Ella. It was difficult for Dan to sit firmly behind. But he did not dare to hug Ella's waist, so he could only rely on

He hugged the snake's body with his arms and tried his best to prevent himself from falling off the snake's back.

"King of Sweden, you said there is one trap left, but there are three directions in which he may escape!" Dan yelled at the top of his lungs as he bumped and swayed, "Don't tell me, you had already anticipated the direction in which he would escape!"

"Of course. Remember the first batch of villagers who arrived in Winchester for refuge? They actually didn't come from the nearest village, but from Southampton. I deliberately let the residents there know the news of the refuge first. Southampton

Hampton is on the south side of Winchester, and further south is the port where I landed in England. What Izcoatl fears most now is to run into my army escorting the villagers head-on, and since the southern residents have already arrived at Winchester

St, so that is the only place where there is no possibility of encountering my army. Therefore, Izcoatl has only one escape route - Southampton."

But after Izcoatl ran aimlessly for a while, he turned south as expected!

Dan didn't dare to speak loudly anymore. The petite girl in front of him had already seen everything happening now two days ago - whether Izcoatl would attack Winchester within three days, or whether he would attack Winchester first

Attacking the dungeon and then attacking the altar, so that he would eventually evacuate to the south, everything was as she expected.

And this kind of foresight is not divination or magic. Everything is based on Ella's intentional guidance. From the moment she mobilized the villagers, Izcoatl was led by an invisible line, step by step closer to her delicate

A trap designed.

"One thing I still don't understand." Dan asked, "Why can Basilik scare away Izkoatl? It obviously looks completely different from what you described!"

"The first is Izcoatl's own inner doubts and fears. Then Bjorn once said when introducing Quetzalcoatl to me that in Aztlan, almost every city-state has some subtle descriptions of the myth.

The difference.”

"So what? Does any city-state describe Quetzalcoatl looking like this?"

"I don't know. But Dan, you are also an alchemist. You should know that there are many methods of making fake gold in alchemy. Some of the finished products are so fake that they look real, and only those who are most familiar with alchemy can tell the difference.

The difference."

"Yes. But the premise is that the fake gold can be mistaken for the real thing. Ordinary people can identify those rough fake gold..."

"Ordinary people can identify gold because they have seen real gold."

Ella interrupted Dan, and then she asked a question that horrified Dan:

"But, has anyone seen the real God?"

Dan's voice became hoarse: "'Who has seen the real God'? King of Sweden, you mean..."

"Let me tell you another interesting thing." Ella turned her head slightly, looked into Dan's eyes, and said meaningfully, "In fact, the Basilik released from my crowbar should have no wings."
