The next day everyone prepared to start the real work, get the beta quartz located at the bottom of the lake.

They prepared and entered the lake to start mining quartz, from the area where the quartz vein was, Flavio could see through his divine energy that the water was hotter than no fish or other lake creature approached the cave.

When they finally arrived, Flavio was surprised why steam came out of the cave where it had to enter as if it were an underwater chimney.

Under the protection of their divine energy, they entered a cave which, when illuminated with the light of divine energy, revealed a large number of quartz crystals.

The temperature of the water in that place reached about 60 or 70 degrees so Flavio could notice, the cave was very similar to the cave of Naica that Flavio once saw in the news.

But having the opportunity to see a cave formed by quartz crystals is a very gratifying sensation for Flavio, fortunately, its interior will become a wonder dor the future generations in the empire.

It is a fact that this cave was destroyed by some volcanic eruption or was lost at some point in history because even after drying the lake after the conquest by Spanish, Flavio did not know of any quartz cave in Mexico City.

Flavio smiled and stretched out his hands while he looks at the beautiful cave of quartz"Very well, this great quartz formation will be perfect to get the blocks we need.

But how are we going to start, we can make quartz tiles and completely cover the base of the island, then cover it with sand from the bottom of the lake.

The volcanic stone is very porous so it will not be comfortable to step on. "

Quetzalcoatl looked at Flavio with doubt "That"s very ostentatious, I understand that we use quartz for the walls and the structure in general but the floor."

Flavio looked at Quetzalcoatl and raised his thumb "We are going to do a wonder that will last until the end of the days if we are going to be in this place until we finish the construction, why don"t we build big and beautiful.

Besides, it is not ostentatious because we are not going to use gold to build we are using quartz, I am not so stupid not to know that gold can cause future problems.

But quartz is a common material without mentioning that it will be reinforced with divine energy so trying to steal it will be useless. "

Apollo sighed "In that my son is right, but what the h.e.l.l if we are going to build it is necessary to do it in a big way, I will take care of making walls much larger and more beautiful than the ones I once made for Troy."

While the G.o.ds were doing their work on the line of defense, the soldiers were receiving the hundreds of thousands of people sent from the conquered areas.

Representatives of the three provinces and Miyuki were talking about the distribution of the population. The representative of Americae Centralis was speaking "Our province needs farmers since most of our population is defending the border with the d.a.m.n jungle."

The representative Insulae Canibalium looked at Miyuki "We can handle the empire"s food production completely empress."

The representative of Canibalatum Maxima looked at the two representatives of the oldest provinces with some hatred "I understand that they fight to get more people but don"t forget that we are the base of the imperial navy.

We need a lot of population to occupy each of the islands in our province, not to mention that we can also help with fis.h.i.+ng in our area. "

Miyuki sighed and gave a small knock on the wooden table, leaving a mark on it "Gentlemen, the rapid census of the population of the conquered territories resulted in only 2 million people including adults, children and the elderly.

I understand your concern but half of that population will go directly to the province of Canibalatum Maxima, having control of the islands is important, there is no extension on that decision.

But for you the two remaining provinces there are 250,000 people guaranteed, the capital will keep the remaining half million, I hope you understand that thousands or perhaps millions of migrants from the north will arrive in the future.

These tribes will be under imperial indoctrination for a while and then they will be sent to their provinces as Roman citizens, for the moment the empire that they need is children, food does not represent a problem according to Minister Taneri.

Promote in your provinces the birth of babies, remember to give subsidies to parents with more children, also the newly graduated doctors will go to help in births and general care of the population.

Every person is important to remember that, have any doubt. "

The representatives shook their heads, they were not happy but they were not sad either since they had won enough with the meeting although they wondered where the emperor was.

In the imperial palace, the Praetorians did not speak about the emperor because the last person who did it was sent by order of Empress h.e.l.lena to take care of one of the many almost abandoned islands of the province of Canibalatum Maxima.

Yuma who was playing with Italivi and Yatzil while carrying little Mitsune could hear her mother talk to Aunt Mayahuel.

"You know something about my husband h.e.l.lena"s trash."

h.e.l.lena who was sunbathing having a cup of tea handed Mayahuel a report from the Nahual messengers "It seems they finished building an island from magma provided by an unknown G.o.d."

Mayahuel read the report and drank of his chocolate milk "It seems that Xolotl is helping them, thankfully they managed to make that b.u.m work.

You know he had the mission of dying for the birth of the fifth sun and escaped, in the end, the mother Tonantzin had to use something else to start the fifth sun. "

h.e.l.lena sighed "If you had not told me that I was a G.o.d of your pantheon I would have gone with Grandpa Anubis to fight with him for help my husband.

I want to know if they will learn the lesson. "

Artemis who was carrying Bastet approached his sister-in-law and Mayahuel "We can always castrate them to prevent them from reproducing."

h.e.l.lena shook her head "I like the idea but I want to continue having children, it would seem more prudent to cut off their feet and hands to keep them locked up."

The three women kept laughing while Yuma looked up at the sky feeling fear
