Chapter 926 My Dagger? It's Her!!

Chapter 926 My dagger? ...It's her!!

"The fiefdom of the northern continent, retaining the descendants of the gods of Tlaxcala..."

The night wind was warm, and the light was dim. The king and his minister sat opposite each other, Shulot was calm, and Mecart was surprised. He thought carefully for a while, and reported to the king in a deep voice.

"Your Majesty, the conditions you promised must be more generous than the black snake Turcot had never thought of! But... there still needs to be a foundation of mutual trust between the kingdom and him... After all, when he leads the kingdom's army into the city, he will no longer have the ability to resist. And with the kingdom's attitude towards the descendants of the gods of Tlaxcala... he can't help but be suspicious!..."

"Well... mutual trust..."

Shulot touched his chin, pondered for a moment, and asked with a smile.

"Mecart, do you have any ideas? I can give the jade talisman and the royal order... but I'm afraid he still doesn't believe it..."

"Your Majesty, this is where the Dark Snake will play a role. You have rewarded the Dark Snake before, maybe you can meet him again and leave the royal order and promise in person. The person the Dark Snake trusts the most is Captain Chivako... I am willing to go to Yunshe Mountain City with Captain Chivako to be responsible for the communication between the two parties!..."

"Oh?! You want to take the initiative to ask for it?"

Seeing that Priest Mecart took the initiative to ask for it, Xiuluot was a little surprised, and then nodded with satisfaction.

"Very good! Mecart, I will leave this important task to you! I will dispatch a team of personal guards to follow your command. I will also write a decree to inform Bertard, the warrior leader of Tlaxcala, to facilitate your actions..."

"As long as you complete this great feat... a higher level of priesthood, or want any favorable job... I will not be stingy with rewards!..."

"Thank you, Your Majesty! I am willing to go to Shenwei University to teach navigation, astronomy and geography. Dedicate my life to the kingdom's navigation!"

Priest Mecart bowed to the ground, his face solemn, and took the opportunity to ask the king.

Among the senior priests, he is still young, inexperienced, and has no family connections. Therefore, it is probably not a good thing to be awarded a high level of priesthood, and it is impossible to gain real power. After experiencing these two voyages, he has grown a lot and gradually has some plans.

The best way out for himself is actually to go to Shenwei University and preside over the teaching affairs. By training students, he can accumulate connections and status without taking risks. With his knowledge and experience, the only thing he can teach is naturally the knowledge of navigation!

The world is so vast, there are countless tribes in the north and south, and there are also unlimited opportunities. The king is ambitious and attaches great importance to navigation, so talents in navigation will be of great use in the future! And this is the best shortcut for him to move forward after thinking day and night!

"Hmm? Go to Shenwei University to teach navigation astronomy and geography?"

Hearing this, Xiu Luote's eyes flashed, and he looked deeply at the prostrated priest Mecart. After a moment, the corners of his mouth raised and he nodded in appreciation.

"Mecart, you are a smart person, I admire you very much! The priest teacher of Kingdom Navigation in Shenwei University is a position suitable for you. In the near future, I will also set up a special Navigation College. The first dean of the college will be equivalent to a fourth-level divine priest! .... And if you want this position, you still need two important conditions!"

"Ah! The dean of the Navigation College! A fourth-level divine priest with real power!..."

Hearing this, Priest Mecart took a deep breath, his heart beating violently. For a divine priest of civilian origin, this is almost the highest point he can imagine. And for this position…

“Praise the Lord! Your Majesty, please make it clear!…”

“Okay! Two conditions, the first is to learn mathematics well. Last year, I compiled a mathematics textbook for village priests, which mainly covers simple geometry and basic equations. This year, I am sorting out slightly more complex mathematics, including the time and longitude required for calculations in navigation, trigonometric functions, analytic geometry in geodesy, and the statistical basis in mathematical statistics… Oh, these mathematical knowledge are astronomical calculations and geographical measurements that must be mastered when sailing at sea. The kingdom’s foundation in this area is still relatively weak, but I have received divine enlightenment and know the specific direction”

Speaking of this, Xiu Luote paused and touched his chin with a guilty conscience. He had not used these knowledge learned in the later generations for a long time, and it had already become a little vague. Fortunately, he remembered the general content and could slowly sort it out. As for the more complex advanced mathematics in college, calculus, linear algebra, integral complex variables… well, let’s deduce it slowly! Don't rush... If it doesn't work, leave a way out for future mathematicians

"Ahem! Mekart, I will give you these two textbooks. You must study hard and learn them thoroughly!..."

Xuluot coughed lightly, smiled, and continued.

"As for the second condition... I am very relieved that Chivaco will cooperate with you... In two years, you will accompany him to explore the southern continent! There are many new crops and domesticated animals there, which are worth bringing back..."

"Your Majesty's two conditions... mathematics and the southern continent..."

Priest Mekart pursed his lips, just thought for a few breaths, then bowed respectfully and promised generously.

"The Lord God is a witness! Your Majesty, I will definitely fulfill your will!..."

"Haha! Good! Very good! Come, drink two more glasses with me!..."

The two raised their glasses and drank together, both of them were a little high-spirited. Priest Mekart got the promise of the king, and the big thing was settled, and he was excited and relieved. He estimated that the atmosphere was about right, so he plucked up the courage to ask about the matter that had always made him speculate but had never dared to mention.

"Praise the Lord! Your Majesty, we were blessed by the Lord and landed in the territory of the Red Crow Tribe. Afterwards, Captain Chivaco and I met with the daughter of Red Crow Chief Amosi and conquered the little chieftain Alan in the north..."

Priest Mekart paused and looked at the king who had no change in expression and was just listening carefully. He licked his lips nervously and continued to speak carefully.

"Ahem! The Lord is my witness! This little chieftain Alan is not only an extremely powerful marksman, but also a famous female chieftain in the wilderness... She is also an unforgettable dog-born beauty, who is really heroic! It's just like... like the hunter goddess in the epic of Prepecha..."

"Hmm?"

Hearing this, Xiuluot looked at Mekart in confusion. The other party's tone suddenly became a little strange, as if hinting at something.

"Mecart, just say what you want to say! I won't blame you..."

"Uh... yes! Your Majesty. This Alan female chieftain, she... she has an obsidian dagger from the Mexica Alliance, the style is very old, it should be a sacrificial dagger passed down by the priests of the Alliance... the dagger has changed its blade many times, but the ancient hilt has been kept..."

"Mecart, what do you want to say?!"

"Hey! Your Majesty! On the hilt of the dagger, it is engraved... engraved with your block name, the God of Death 'Xuluot'!"

"Huh? Engraved with the name of the God of Death? Could it be that there are nobles in the Alliance who have been captured by the Red Crow Tribe?"

Hearing this, Xiuluot frowned and guessed.

"Mecart, have you asked? If there are captured nobles from the Alliance or the Kingdom... the Kingdom is willing to pay a ransom to redeem them!..."

"Uh... Your Majesty, I didn't ask the Alan female chieftain, she asked us on her own initiative..."

Mecart gritted his teeth, made up his mind, and simply told everything.

"She said that this dagger with a name engraved on it... was given to her by a Mexica noble boy ten years ago... She has kept it until now, just to find this noble boy... Ahem! Your Majesty, do you have any impression?..."

"Hmm? Asking me? Do I have any impression?"

Hearing this, Xiu Luote was a little surprised. He blinked and glanced at the somewhat nervous and even trembling Priest Mecart. He carefully recalled the other party's words and finally grasped the most critical time!

"The name of the square god of death is engraved on the handle of the dagger... This happened ten years ago? Ten years ago, who else could write in square characters?... Hmm? A Mexica noble boy? Ten years ago?!..."

"Ah! Ten years ago?! A noble boy?!... My name? The name I engraved with my own hands? It's me!!"

"Lord God! That's my dagger! The person I gave it to?... Ah! Is it her?! That little girl? She's still alive?!"

After a moment of thinking back, Xiu Luote suddenly opened his eyes wide, full of shock and disbelief! At this moment, long-lost memories suddenly came to his mind, violently impacting his soul, making him feel like he was in a dream! After a few breaths, he shook his head, took a deep breath, grabbed Mecart's arm, and asked loudly.

"Mecart, are you sure?! That's my name? My dagger?!"

"Is it her? Is it her?!... Her name is... Alan?!"
