Nova Roma-Chapter 321 - Origin Civitatem under attack
The Inquisitors were surprised by the beast and pointed their weapons; it was the first time they faced an Ek Chapat.
The beast stopped eating the crocodile and gave a terrifying scream to run towards the intruders who were entering its burrow.
The Inquisitors fired their flintlock pistols towards the heads of the Ek Chapat; these shots destroyed three of the blow heads.
But this did not stop the beast's dress, who came as close as she could and threw one of the Inquisitors who flew out into the water.
When he fell, he had the misfortune of being beset by a few crocodiles who began attacking him in the water.
The shouts the inquisitor sounded all over the place because the pain he was feeling was horrible, but little by little, they were ceasing because the crocodiles began to tear off the limbs while they were bitten and then turned and ripped off.
The murder of one of their companions allowed them to take out their sabers and attack in a coordinated way the beast they had before them.
According to the bestiary of the creatures that can be found in the Ek Chapat, it has a weak point, which is one of the heads.
The problem was that they were only two inquisitors, against a beast that had superhuman strength and high speed.
The beast felt the intruders approach and turned to shout with its four remaining heads.
The Inquisitors threw themselves on the beast managed to avoid the attacks with the hands of the creature and of a cut they cut two heads of the beast.
Fortunately, they managed to cut off the indicated head and thereby killed the beast, but before they could celebrate their victory, they heard a noise coming from further into the tunnel.
They carefully picked up their torches that they had left on the ground, and they could see it was not just a beast; it was hundreds of eyes that were seeing them.
The Inquisitors ran away as fast as they could, but as fast as they ran, they could not escape the beasts who reached them quickly.
The Inquisitors screamed in pain as they were torn apart by the heads of the beasts that soon took their flesh along with some bones.
But unlike his companion who had died for the alligators, their shouts were heard by the Praetorians who were guarding the entrance to the sewers.
This set off the alarms, and the Praetorian guard began to prepare to receive any attack that came from the sewers, the inquisition was also quickly informed about the screams coming from the sewers.
Due to the city's security protocols, the city guard brought Lucio's stepfather from Flavio, made a red alert, and monitored any possible exit from the sewers.
The inquisitors who were in the capital also prepared to receive any kind of attack.
Lucio wasted no time and sent a messenger to the quartz palace to ask for reinforcements because they did not know what they faced and much less in what quantities.
What worried him most was that the attack was running in an area where it is supposed to be the safest place in the empire.
After giving the order, Lucio ordered that his wife and that her daughters be taken quickly to the Quartz Palace because she wanted to risk them if something happened.
Julia, who was knitting a sweater for her granddaughter Amanda, was surprised when one of her husband's soldiers entered the room.
"Mrs. Julia, General Lucio has given the order that you and your daughters go directly to the Quartz Palace.
I cannot tell you why, but it seems that we have an extremely dangerous threat to the capital, and you must evacuate.
You don't have to worry about anything since the soldiers have personally gone to pick up the twins.
A glider is waiting for you, Admes will be the one to drive so you won't have to worry about anything. "
Julia, who did not hear only pure sighing soldiers quickly took her gift she was knitting and accompanied it to the carriage that would take her to the track that was on the outskirts of the capital.
She did not want to risk or risk her daughters, because she knew very well that if something happened to them, Flavio and Hellena would bathe the capital with blood until they found those responsible.
In the Imperial school, where Ayesha and Aurora were studying, a group of Vi Opus entered the institution and went for them.
The two twins, who were listening to a history class about the defeat of Carthage, were surprised when they saw the Ví Opus at the door of their classroom.
They knew very well that they had to accompany them because something had happened and they could be in danger.
Although they didn't share much time with their brother, they know very well that he protects them and makes them even more aware than their parents.
Not to mention that Hellena takes care of them in a more personal way than her brother, while accompanying the soldiers of the special forces.
They could see how before reaching the carriage, one of the sewers burst open, and a beast came out that showed its seven heads.
Unfortunately for the beast, it came out in the wrong place because I saw them Opus, pointed their carbine, and opened fire on the heads of the beast, quickly and efficiently assembling it.
Ayesha and Aurora were frightened by the horrible beast but did not have time to remain detained in the place as the Vi Opus took them to the carriage that led to the track where Admes was waiting for them.
Along the way, the two sisters could see how soldiers were fighting the beasts from the city garrison, Inquisitors, and citizens who were bravely fighting.
Aurora looked at her sister while hugging her arm. "These people will be fine; those beasts seem to be many.
I'm a scared, sister. "
Ayesha squeezed her sister's hand; she had to be secure even if she was afraid "Our brother will have to come as it is an attack on the capital.
But you can be sure that father will stop the attack until our brother arrived with reinforcements, we can only wait. "
