The carriage advanced to the outskirts of the city, during the whole journey they were attacked twice, but the Vi Opus defended the chariot and prevented the beasts from approaching.
When they arrived at the glider, the twins were uploaded with Julia, and the Nahual messengers began to take the glider to the city of Texcoco.
The special forces could rest peacefully for a moment because the three most influential people in the capital were safe now that they were heading towards the City of Texcoco.
But this only meant that they had to work even harder because, on the way, they managed to see enough beasts that had managed to make their way to the city.
They have to endure as much as they can until the reinforcements of sector A of the defense line arrive.
After a short break, they left the place for the imperial school because they feared for the lives of the students; in some parts of the city, the fire began to get out of control.
It was a very depressing scene because the capital was on fire; it was the real first disaster facing the empire, Taneri, who was in her disheveled office because she was having fun with her husband.
She had to prepare when an explosion cimbró the government building, without wasting time went to his desk where she pulled a flintlock pistol "Quirino takes the crossbow from the closet.
We have to get out of this place now we have no time to lose, Flavio once told me that if I ever heard any explosion, it is because the Imperial Palace is under attack and that means that the capital is under siege.
Before leaving we will pa.s.s through Renzo, Idril would be sad if her husband dies in the chaos generated by the battle. "
Quirino, who dressed as quickly as he could take the crossbow and the charge and then looked out the window. "I can see a few people running in the courtyard and some Praetorian guards.
But he failed to locate if humans are attacking us or if beasts attack us, you have any idea what we can face. "
Taneri put on her clothes and looked at the door. "I have no idea, but a few days ago, some people disappeared into the sewers.
It must be something related to it, which is good because it means that there is no horde of beasts destroying the empire.
The bad thing is that the enemy is in the heart of our capital, to think that in Rome, our greatest threat was the barbarian tribes, but in this place, we have attacks from different supernatural beings.
We will have to resist as much as we can until the legions that are in sector A come to help us, then it will depend on how quickly the G.o.ds arrive to help us.
It is a pity that many people will die due to this attack but will set a precedent in the history of Nova Roma to prevent things like this from happening. "
At that moment the door of the room opened, and a soldier crashed into the wall of the room, with his last strength I look at Minister Taneri "Please escape Minister we are facing a horde of Ek."
Before he could finish the sentence a beast with seven heads and 14 feet ran into the soldier and began to bite him
Taneri frowned and walked calmly towards Quirino to take him by the hand and lead him to the door ignoring the beast that was devouring the poor soldier.
Quirino did not understand why the beast was not attacking them or even paying attention, but he could be sure that something related to his wife was owed.
Taneri was sweating because he was using his magic to create a kind of field which makes them invisible in the eyes of those beasts.
This was not complicated because the Ek Chapat were beasts that acted on instinct and not with intelligence; it was only enough to mask their presence so that in the eyes of the monsters, they were equal.
In the halls, the blood was all over the place; in some areas, the chewed corpses were insight.
Quirino was surprised and quite disgusted by a large amount of blood that was there, not to mention that the beasts continued to owe the bodies of people he knew.
Taneri could only sigh and hatefully look at those beasts that continued to eat from the bodies of local workers, wanted to do something but did not have the power to take revenge.
But even if she did, she would not endanger the person she loves most in her life, who is her husband, Quirino.
When they left the building, they found an incredibly heartbreaking scene and sad bodies everywhere blood killed beasts and some others that were devouring corpses.
They did not have time to mourn the losses because they started their way to the main avenue to reach the commercial area where the Renzo workshop was located.
On their way they met a little girl who was extremely disoriented and did not know where the poor little girl was going, she was just carrying a teddy bear.
Taneri approached her as quickly as she could, and when she got close, she sat down to carry her in his arms.
Looking at her more closely, the little girl had her whole face covered in blood, not her own, but it seemed to be her mother"s, that would explain why she was detained from a single place facing nothing.
Quirino received the little girl so that his wife could move without problems because she knew she was using her magic, and sooner or later, she would end up tired, so he would have to protect the two women.
Renzo, who was in his workshop, pushed with the help of one of his a.s.sistants a block of marble on one of the creatures which were crushed like an ant.
"Master Renzo, we have to get out of this place, we have been able to kill that creature, but outside, there seems to be many more."
Renzo shook his head "Taneri should come, with her we can leave the capital without taking any risks.
But you are free to leave if you want only remember that I cannot ensure your survival if you leave. "
The a.s.sistant looked at Renzo "I"m a sorry teacher, but I have to run; I don"t plan on staying in this place."
Renzo shook his head as he watched his a.s.sistant run toward the street before he lost sight of him, and a terrifying scream came from outside.
