Chapter 942 Potential allies, conditions for surrender
The door of the stone prison opened, and there was a bright light outside. The Mayan businessman Tikalo stood at the door of the light, feeling the blade on his neck, and his body trembled slightly. As a person who travels among various forces, his words are the best.
As a businessman who has experienced ax and spear, the most helpless thing for him is when he encounters such unreasonable and difficult things, he shouts and kills, and kills when he says...
"...Uh... Witness the Serpent God! Dear Priest Papu, you can put down the sacrificial dagger first... Between you and me! In fact, we are... Actually, we are potential allies!..."
"Huh? What? Potential allies?"
Hearing this, Papu Ji raised his eyebrows, obviously confused.
"Witness the gods! You don't bear grudge against me for attacking you? You still want to become an ally with me? What's the point of this?..."
"Ahem! Priest Papu, I am a Mayan businessman, and I have to look forward to everything. Those past encounters have caused me losses. I have to think about making up for it in the future... And if you surrender to Your Highness,
, the benefits it can bring to me will actually be far greater than letting you escape to Maya!…”
"Well...be careful! Then swear by your ancestors!"
"Ancestors witness! What I told is the truth! I made some mistakes when I returned with the kingdom's fleet this time, and I really need to make some contributions to make up for it..."
Mayan businessman Tikalo's eyes flashed, and he was organizing words of persuasion. The matter of the Mayan prince cannot be mentioned at the moment, otherwise it would be too tragic for the other party to take his own head and seek refuge with the Xiwu family. He pondered for a moment.
, said with a sincere face.
"My caravan was attacked by the Navy of Hidden Snake City after leaking the whereabouts of the fleet... And the two leaders of the fleet are not on good terms with me, so they will definitely put the responsibility on me... Therefore,
I must go back with great achievements to regain power in front of His Highness! And what achievements can be compared to that of the naval commander who surrendered the Hidden Snake Holy City? As long as we plan together, even
Ah, you can sneak into the holy city and capture the chief priest of the seaside... These are opportunities for you and me!..."
"Well, the fleet leaders are at odds with each other..."
Hearing this, Priest Papu's eyes flashed. He remembered the old story of Tikalo appearing alone to block the fleet, and he believed it a little bit. Then, when he heard the next words, his pupils suddenly shrank, and his expression suddenly became surprised.
"You...what did you say?! Attack the holy city and arrest the chief priest of the seaside? This?...such a thing...how can I..."
"Witness the Lord God! This is all great credit! ... It is yours and mine. With me here, your credit can be reported directly to the venerable God of Death without having to worry about being taken away by anyone!
And as long as you have accomplished such great achievements, are you still afraid that there will be no rocks to stand on in the mountains of the kingdom?...Priest Pappu, you and I are real potential allies!..."
Hearing this, Priest Pap lowered his eyes, his thoughts racing rapidly, but nothing showed on his face. He thought silently for a while, then slightly loosened his dagger and urged.
"go on!…"
"Yes!...You also know that I was born in the Mayan city-state in the east...Whether it is the kingdom in the lake, the Mexican Union, or the seaside land...it is actually not my hometown, nor is it the place where I seek the future...I only
What the wandering old turtle thinks about day and night is to return to his homeland in glory, and even become the lord of the city-state!..."
Mayan businessman Tikalo had a sincere face, and his words were 90 percent true and 100 percent false, making it difficult to tell that something was wrong.
"When I was young, the Emperor of the Death Temple promised me that he would leave me a city-state to rule in the land of Maya... But such a promise would require the use of legions to truly defeat it! And several legion commanders in the kingdom,
They all have their own directions for exploring the war, and they have no interest in the expedition to the Mayan land... At that time, the power I can really seek will have to be found from the nearest seaside!... And you and your navy, are you not right?
Are they the allies sent by the gods to form an alliance with me?"
"I? Form an alliance with you and go to Maya? Hiss! You mean..."
"That's right! Dear Priest Papu, you have offended many people in the alliance and the kingdom. If you really want to stay in the kingdom, the best choice... is to take the kingdom's navy and use the kingdom's legion to conquer the east.
Maya! Then, after defeating the Mayans along the coast, I will ask Your Highness to form an alliance and cooperate with you to guard a place for the kingdom!...At that time, I will return to my hometown to be the city lord, and you will command the navy on the coast.
What a beautiful thing it is to be far away from the rights and wrongs of the kingdom!…”
"Oh?! Lead the kingdom's legion to conquer the land of Maya, and then guard one side and stay away from the kingdom!..."
After hearing this long-term plan, Priest Pap's eyes changed and he was obviously interested. If such a path can be taken, it will indeed be the most beneficial to him! But if he wants to take such a path, then
Someone has to... He pondered for a long time before suddenly retracting the dagger and a smile bloomed on his face.
"That's right! Bless the gods! Oh... bless the Lord God! Going to the land of Maya and spreading the glory of the Lord God... is indeed the best way out!"
"But, Ti Carlo, are you really sure that you can convince His Majesty the Death Temple? With his status, is he really willing to come to the front line and personally accept my surrender?"
"Ah?! Priest Pappu...you...you actually want to die in the temple and come to the front line before you surrender?"
"Of course! I don't know anyone else in the Lake Kingdom, nor do I understand the Kingdom's tokens. When the time comes, you can carve some jade talismans and trick me into offering sacrifices. Or the cruel Black Wolf Legion Commander will take action.
He killed me casually...Should I go to the black abyss to cry to the demons in the ground?"
Speaking of this, Priest Papu frowned, his eyes full of vigilance. As a former high priest, he was well-informed!
For him, he has done this kind of coaxing and killing more than once before, without even having to do it himself. And the reason why he can firmly control the navy is because he sent many priests from the Hidden Snake Holy City.
He tried every means to coax him to the front line and "sacrificed" heroically.
"As long as the royal flag under the Temple of Death appears in front of my eyes and in front of the Mexica Legion, I will immediately lead the navy and surrender! Because only the surrender promise publicly made by the Temple of Death can be my
Guarantee of life! The credibility of the Death Temple is much more important than a small priest like me! His credibility will not be wasted on me, it must be..."
"O Lord God! Let His Highness surrender in person?!"
Hearing this, the Mayan businessman Tikalo trembled slightly. He was a little incredulous, looked into the eyes of Priest Papu, and asked.
"Your Highness's status is so precious, how can he easily come to the dangerous front line? If you attack His Highness, wouldn't that give you a chance to make a comeback from a desperate situation?!"
"Hmm... Think about it, it doesn't have to be the front line. I can take the navy and go to a certain coast in the west to wait... The Death Temple just needs to bring the legion, appear from a distance, and put up the royal flag! I will
We will immediately reach the shore and kneel down to surrender to His Highness!…”
Having said this, Priest Pappu touched his chin and looked at Tikalo carefully, with murderous intent hidden in his words.
"How's it going? Tikallo, are you sure you can convince His Highness?!"
"I…"
Mayan businessman Tikalo squinted his eyes and looked at the murderous expression on Priest Pap's face. He was keenly aware of death. He thought quickly and repeatedly pondered how to reply in order to win the trust of the suspicious opponent. After a while, he finally
He nodded slightly, with a solemn look on his face, clenched his fist in his heart and swore an oath.
"Witness the Serpent God! Witness the Ancestors! I will do my best to give you a try!"
