Chapter 1371 Attack Him Like This
"This is not okay."

The sound of Smoke Mirror came from the darkness, and she, transformed into Night Leopard, walked out slowly. The candlelight was reflected in her eyes, shaking and could go out at any time.

"It turns out that the human remains from three solar eras alone cannot replace fresh life."

"Really? I think this is already very good. This is already a big enough achievement." Blaze shook the candle in his hand, but he soon realized what Smoke Mirror meant by "No".

The candle burned and melted normally.

Yes, it burns and melts normally, just like an ordinary candle. Its burning can indeed provide solar scales in the sky, but how long can a normal burning candle burn? One hour, or two hours?

Originally, the smoke mirror was planned to have one stick that could burn for a year.

If the Sacrifice Candle burns at the same speed as a normal candle, it will not solve the problem, but only temporarily delay it.

Making candles requires the remains of humans from the first three solar eras. How much oil made from humans from the first solar era can be contained in the flat belly of the smoke mirror? How many four-rain turkeys and four-water fish are there? Even if there are really a lot, as endless as a disaster, can they be inexhaustible?
The answer is definitely no. It might take a thousand years, but it would only delay the underground gods' conspiracy against Quetzalcoatl for a thousand years.

No, maybe it won't even take a thousand years. To Quetzalcoatl, what's the difference between a thousand years and a moment? Coupled with the instigation of the underground gods, he will choose to solve the problem immediately without hesitation... I'm afraid that this time the memorial service for Quetzalcoatl's return will be the dividing line. There are only two possible results for Quetzalcoatl: sacrifice or not sacrifice.

Smoke Mirror paced slowly back and forth beside Blaze, her usual mocking panting, as if to laugh at Blaze's failure, but there was a hint of anxiety in her steps.

On the contrary, Blaze was extremely calm. He pinched out the sacrificial candle with his fingers and put it back in the warehouse.

"You don't seem to be in a hurry at all." Smoke Mirror shook its tail.

"Why rush? It's not that I can't do it, it's just that it's not enough." Blaze shrugged. He had encountered many crises where he had to bravely face the situation and survive.

The current problem is nothing, it just requires more effort. The only thing he is sure of is that he is good at this.

"No, the problem is that you don't have that much time. Quetzalcoatl will be here at any time..."

"He jumped into the fire pot surrounded by the gods and was burned to death in the fire, reborn as the sun god Tonatiuh, a being that has nothing to do with the Quetzalcoatl and will actively or passively promote the system of living sacrifice that the Quetzalcoatl resists. I know."

Blaze pumped his fists and relaxed his shoulders, as if preparing for a big fight.

"Anyway, the only thing the gods can use to coerce Quetzalcoatl is its own extremely high sense of morality. But as for moral blackmail, who doesn't know how to use it?"

"Ah?" Smoke Mirror opened his mouth, and the four words "moral kidnapping" sounded very awkward when they came out of Blaze's mouth.

"What? You haven't eaten pork, but you've seen a pig run... Isn't this statement not quite right?" Blaze pinched his chin and interrupted while Smoke Mirror was waiting for how he would [morally blackmail] him.

"To be honest, there are more people who have eaten pork than those who have seen pigs. Before I left Balkan City, I had never even seen a domestic pig, so..." "This is not the point right now!" Smoke Mirror exploded, and the hair on the back of his head stood up.

"Why are you so anxious? That's what I meant. As the saying goes, everything is a teacher. The enemy who is good at moral blackmail is also my teacher. Even if I don't want to learn, it's useless. I remember it all."

Blaze saw that Smoke Mirror's face darkened. He knew that Smoke Mirror was already impatient with his nonsense, so it seemed that he had to get to the point.

He coughed lightly and began to learn about those enemies who were willing to disgust him and leave him with psychological trauma even if they died.

"Then let's set the situation up as a scene where Quetzalcoatl insists on jumping into that fire pit and sacrifices himself to become the sun. Then I will pick up this candle and tell Quetzalcoatl that I have found a way."

"At that time, Quetzalcoatl will definitely realize the imperfections of Candle, and Candle will have no way to convince him." Smoke Mirror advanced the plot in time, and based on her understanding of Quetzalcoatl, she expressed Quetzalcoatl's reaction.

"But this is a method where [no one will be sacrificed]. In the final analysis, you are just feeling guilty and can't think of a way to make up for it. You think that the only way is to die and become the sun that shines brightly in the world."

"You are running away from your [sin]!"

"Oh oh oh—" Smoke Mirror stood up and applauded Blaze's speech. The highest praise she could give was, "It feels a bit like the underground gods condemning Quetzalcoatl, but this is probably not enough. It just cancels out the underground gods' need to offer sacrifices to atone their sins."

"Look at the humans you have blessed. They are able to live tenaciously in this darkness. They have not changed themselves like the humans of the past two eras and committed themselves to the end of the world. This is because humans have been praising your legend generation after generation."

"They believe that you will come back eventually, so even though countless years have passed, they haven't changed at all, just like the people you once loved!"

"And you, after countless years, will finally return one day and stand in front of the fire pit, telling the people who praise you that you are a sinner, and you will jump into the fire pit to atone your sins, and the feathered serpent will no longer exist?"

"You will be burned to ashes in the fire. What will completely disappear is not only you, but also mankind's longing for you and all the beautiful things you have left behind! The mankind of the Fourth Sun Era will be completely extinct the moment you jump into the fire pit!"

"Good, great, using humans, the people that Quetzalcoatl cares about the most, as the core of the attack!" Smoke Mirror clapped his hands vigorously, his two claws clapping loudly, and his beard trembled.

"As expected of you, you are my companion. However, I think you should add something like 'Your sacrifice is just self-satisfaction', and the effect will be stronger."

"If it's adopted, of course we'll also propose [migration] to further demonstrate the meaninglessness of the Quetzalcoatl sacrifice." Blaze raised his chin. He was still calm, but the smoke mirror was already circling excitedly.

"No problem, this will definitely be fine. Based on my understanding of him, he will definitely be attacked by you and will not intend to sacrifice himself. If you just say this at that time, there will be no problem!"

"Yeah." Blaze nodded, carefully adjusting his state, his expression was not as excited as Smoke Mirror's.

"I would... say that."
