Nova Roma

The fight that was developing the city of Texcoco was extremely bloody, but thanks to the help of the goddesses, the soldiers were able to fight bravely and begin to reject the attacks of those bears.

The fight went on, but not only that, the city of Texcoco was happening, but the city of Teotihuacán was also much more besieged because it was the furthest city that the empire had in that area.

But being also the farthest city was one of the most protected without mentioning that the city wall was the most resistant without taking into account the wall of the quartz palace.

Tito was using his crossbow to shoot the bears that were ravaging the part of his wall.

"Damn your crap don’t seem to have an end, thankfully we’re protected by this wall but how will they be in the line of defense."

The centurion, with the help of one of the auxiliaries, carried a pot of boiling oil which he threw on the wall, the screams of the bears were terrifying, but this could not matter less to the soldiers.

The centurion walked towards Tito and put his hand on his shoulder "Tito if you have time to be talking, I think you should help us, General Alair requires your presence in the barracks.

It seems that they need all the snipers that they can to eliminate some shitty beasts with white fur that were seen, these damn plagues always causing problems. "

Tito smiled and took his crossbow. "At least it is better to fight with beasts like this than to be on the southern wall and its rains of blood caused by the god Cronos when he kills some titans."

After saying this, Tito ran down the wall and went down one of the stairs, on his way, he can see what other soldiers with their crossbows or muskets were also heading towards the barracks.

General Alair, in charge of the defense of the city, was extremely nervous about the reports of the Nahual messengers since they did not give good news.

The city of Texcoco, the Quartz Palace, and some other towns around are being attacked simultaneously by hordes of beasts, but the worst part was that the creatures in the form of monkeys were approaching.

Alair knew that it was one thing to fight against white fur bears, but another treat was to fight against monkeys’ beasts, those damn humanoid beings were resistant and worked as tribal forces.

Little by little, the barracks were filled with soldiers who were arriving with their weapons ready to receive the orders of General Alair.

Tito, who was somewhat nervous, took a position with his companions preparing to listen to the words that General Alair had to say

The general walked on a platform and positioned himself in front of the soldiers "soldiers we are in trouble enormous hordes of these beasts are besieging all the cities around.

But if only bears were our only drawback, they wouldn’t be here or call them; the Nahual messenger has seen monkey-like beings.

Our biologist has told us that these humanoid beasts are of the same species that attacked us a few months ago with the difference that they have white fur.

This means that we are going to have to face them again, and since all the surrounding cities are besieged, we will not be able to receive reinforcements.

We are alone soldiers; I hope you can fight with all your strength and maximize the deaths you make.

Remember that a bullet or a Bolt has to be used is intelligent because after they run out, we will have to fight melee.

That is all gentlemen go to the North gate that is one these beasts have been seen and that the great Jupiter is on our side and if it is not possible that at least Anubis has mercy on our souls.

Roma Invicta! "

The soldiers gave a loud shout and responded in the same way, "Roma Invicta."

Thanks to the soldiers, they prepared their weapons and left in a coordinated manner towards the north gate to put themselves in position and be able to kill as many humanoid beasts as they could.

Tito knew that he could die because he knew firsthand the power of those humanoid beasts with monkey heads, but Tito had no choice only can face them because his family was in the city, and if they failed, not only he would die, his family and the city would also do it.

When Tito arrived at the wall, he realized that the situation was worse than he could expect was not a beast or dozens, if not thousands of them.

He took a deep breath and pointed his crossbow at the first beast he could see without wasting time, shot towards the head, the creature he was trying to move between the bears could only feel like something entered his head, and everything became dark.

With this attack, the fight began to safeguard the city of Teotihuacán from those humanoid beasts that tried to kill everything they could.

Tito reloaded his ballista with another Bolt and prepared to throw the next shot, but he could see at that moment that a shower of stones began to fall on them.

The stones will make it a big problem because the armor stopped him; the real problem was that some of them were too big to be stopped and caused some soldiers to break their arms or legs.

In some cases the speed with which the stones were thrown caused heavy blows to the heads of some soldiers who were on the edge of the wall causing them to lose their balance and fall towards their death either to be eaten by the hordes of bears or to break his neck when he falls.

General Alair, upon learning of the dead that was happening at the North Gate, quickly ordered that ballista battalion be taken to that area to support the soldiers.

The civil population of the city, upon learning of all the dangers that existed outside the city, decided to support as much as they could to the troops of the wall even some chose to fight to save their lives.

The enemy was not someone with whom they could negotiate; they were simple beasts that would not hesitate to kill them or devour them without mentioning that they could do something worse to women and girls.

Because of this threat, all citizens set to work with the soldiers, the only hope they had was for the Quartz Palace to break its siege entirely thanks to the gods and send forces for their support.

Otherwise, it would be the end of the city of Teotihuacan.
