Aztec Civilization: Destiny to Conquer America!-Chapter 1683 - 1200: Chief Divine Grand Sacrifice, Offering White-skinned Demons!

In February, the sunlight from the zenith fell, filling the port of Iron Bay Town with five large ships of the Kingdom, along with boats from over forty Great Tribes. The various tribal goods piled on the boats, and many chieftains and leaders gathered together, speaking different accents of the Taíno dialect. From the westernmost Forest Ridge Tribe of Cuba, to the easternmost Marine Tribe, and the Wood Water Tribes of the southern Wood Water Island (Xaymaca Jamaica Island), as well as the Stone River in the western part of the eastern Haiti Great Island, and the Great Jin Tribes…

This Main God Festival, organized by the Longboat Tribe to offer sacrifices to the "White-skinned Demons", had almost every Taíno Tribe within a thousand miles along the coast sending their leaders and small boats, bringing goods for exchange to attend! It was precisely to wait for these chieftains to arrive that the date of the festival was postponed again and again, until early February, when most of the tribal envoys had finally gathered.

For the many Taíno chieftains and leaders, such a large-scale festival, with the sacred validation of prophecy, was a grand gathering that might only occur once in many years! Representatives from each Great Tribe came here not only to perform sacrificial rites and meet their spiritual needs, but also to trade surplus tribal goods and meet material life needs. Only those Great Tribes on the eastern coast of Cuba, who had personally witnessed the plundering and killing, and the Thunderbolt-like Evil Demon Fleet, came with a stronger need for tribal safety, urgently seeking the support and protection of the Longboat Tribe warriors!…

"Ancestors! There really are tribes with white skin!"

"Heavenly Divine! There really are such big beards!"

"Mother Goddess of the Great Sea! How can there be tribes with such strange appearances? Are they really born of the Mother Goddess?"

"Chief Divine protect us! I've heard these people are very fierce, plundering and slaughtering, not even sparing the fish in the ponds, fiercer than the Xiguayou people!"

"Yes! Yes! These people have slaughtered several small tribes on the northeastern coast! The Longboat Tribe says they are not human, but Evil Demons drifting over from the distant Eastern Sea!"

"Ah! The Evil Demons came on large ships… the prophecy of the Longboat Tribe from three years ago has indeed come true!… Their Chief Divine is truly a great deity with Great Magical Power!…"

The five-meter-high sacrificial platform had long been set up in the square in front of the Main God Temple. Over two hundred Kingdom's Warriors, armored and holding spears, guarded all parts of the square, causing many chieftains to show respect and bow their heads to the military force of the Longboat Tribe. Then, twenty solemn Kingdom's Warriors, in pairs, escorted ten white-skinned prisoners, bare-chested, out from the Temple of the Chief Divine to the front of the sacrificial platform!

Seeing these "White-skinned Demons" with their own eyes, the simple faces of the many Taíno chieftains and leaders were like stormy seas, showing changes in expression. On those innocent faces were unforeseen confusion and bewilderment, the pious awe of prophecy coming true, surprising fear of the legendary demons, and deep-seated hatred from attacks and plundering! The bustling exclamations and discussions also echoed throughout the square, like flocks of birds flying in all directions!

"Chief Divine! The white-skinned demon has indeed been defeated by the powerful Longboat Tribe and captured by their warriors!"

"The prophecy says these demons will return, bringing more slaughter and death… If this is true, what should we do?…"

"Chief Divine protect us! The Longboat Tribe will protect us!… Their warriors will train spear-wielding warriors, and we can invite the Longboat warriors to come to our tribes!…"

"Boom, boom, boom!"

"Woooo, woooo, woooo!"

Low drums resounded in front of the sacrificial platform, sounds of battle never heard by the Taíno tribes. Then, even louder horns, personally blown by Huitu Puapu, brought more stirring cries of the battlefield. The chaotic discussions instantly ceased, and the chieftains of all tribes held their breath, watching the feather-clad Longboat Shaman, Chief God Priest Tomate, step by step ascending to the top of the platform, approaching the Sacrificial Stone!

"Ignite the Divine Smoke! Invite the Chief Divine to descend!…"

"Ignite the Divine Smoke! Invite the Chief Divine to descend!…"

Tomate, the High Priest, sang loudly, calling for the descent of the Chief Divine in the Mexica Language of the Highlands. Over ten Taíno Priests also followed in prayer and invocation in the Taíno Language. The high-pitched chants reached the clouds, and the blazing Sacred Fire flared up in the fire basin, while hundreds of pounds of Cuban sacrificial tobacco were simultaneously ignited around the platform!

"Praise Chief Divine Huitzilopochtli! His power is limitless, controlling the sky, earth, and sea! He bestows blessings upon us, ensuring the success of spring sowing and autumn harvest, abundant fish harvests, and the continuation of the tribes! He rules over all souls, promising devout believers a spiritual resting place and a blissful afterlife!..."

"Praise the Highland Main God! He is the greatest in the sky, the greatest on land, and the greatest in the sea! Believe in Him, and the tribe will have food, women can bear children! Believe in Him, and after death, you can ascend to heaven, continue eating Cassava, and continue inhaling Divine Smoke!…"

On the platform, the Taíno Priests called out loudly, using the simplest and most understandable language, moving the hearts of the chieftains and leaders of all tribes! Such a grand festival, with so many tribal leaders, along with the prophetic witness and urgent threat of the White-skinned Demons… This was almost a flawless faith rally, a rare opportunity for evangelism!

"Praise the Supreme Main God! He is the War God who protects all faith-believing tribes and citizens! With the Thunderbolt in His hand, and the Fire in His eyes, He grants us the strength and courage to fight! He guides us, from thousands of miles away, to battle the demons from the East of the Sea, even if it means dying and going to the Divine Kingdom, we will never surrender!"
