Nova Roma

But the real problem did not come from the North gate but from the South Gate, which was under the command of the Centurion Flora and who was suffering from constant attacks on the Gate by the bears.

Unlike the North Gate, where it was trying to burn in this part, the bears were hitting the wooden Gate causing severe damage.

Flora ordered that the citizens help cover the door with stones and sacks to prevent these beasts from entering the city since it would be a matter of time before they could come.

"Damn it with this great Horde of crap, if we survive personally, I will ask you to allow me to make a great pit and fill it with water and steel skewers."

An auxiliary boy approached her "Centurion Flora, the biologist Malena requires her presence, says it is an urgent issue, and what can help with the beasts near the Gate."

Flora sighed and followed the boy to a small house near the stairs of the wall when Flor entered she realized how fantastic everything was there she could not understand what the things that Malena biologist was using were.

Malena looks towards the door and could see Centurion Flora. "Thank you for coming Centurion; I want to give you this."

Flora watched with surprise as Malena moved with some difficulty a large barrel that seemed to make noises as if she had something liquid inside.

"You should ask your soldiers to take this barrel with great care. What is inside is Greek fire, because of the lack of materials I cannot manufacture much so you will have to rationalize this barrel.

Each Gate would receive a barrel if it produced a little more. I will give priority to your area and the north zone, I have asked the citizens to please bring you clay pots so you can fill them with Greek fire.

Just remember not to fill them because this fire cannot be put out with water if any of your soldiers get to catch fire, it is best to cut off the arm or foot that has Greek fire.

If their bodies are filled with this substance, it is best to kill them and throw them at the enemies. "

Flora was surprised by what Malena had said: "I thought the Imperial family could only make the Greek fire..."

Malena let out a laugh "That was only with Emperor Augustus, Emperor Flavio allows us to experiment using substances.

This is mainly why the emperor believes that knowledge has no function when nobody knows it.

Of course, it is one thing to know, and another very different is to do it, then there would be breaking the imperial laws, and the Praetorian guard would go through your head. "

Flora sighed, "I understand, I better get this Greek fire, my soldiers are fighting those beasts, and the door doesn’t seem to be able to resist much.

Thanks for everything."

Malena waited for a little until the Centurion Flora left the room with two soldiers carrying the barrel with the substance to make Greek fire.

Flora, with the help of his soldiers, quickly climbed the barrel to one of the towers of the wall where two volunteer soldiers agreed to fill the clay pots.

Very carefully, they opened the barrel and quickly began to take out the mixture using some wooden spoons, it was slowly placed and the clay pots.

The two volunteers were wearing special gloves in the case at any time the mixture would fall into their hands, and it caught on fire they could take off their gloves and not lose their hands.

These vases were quickly taken to the areas near the door where they lit the vessels and threw them, the vases flew through the air for a few moments before they fell to the ground and lit a fire.

The beasts gradually understood that this fire was not something natural was not something healthy because when it caught fire with the substance that had the vessels, they tried to put the snow to pay it, but the light did not go out.

It started to generate chaos, and the beasts of the South gate began to run meaningless those that were set on fire and gradually began to burn other creatures for their senseless running.

The soldiers then understood that the vessels with Greek fire they had were hazardous, and it was only enough that they were wrong to throw the vessel to suffer a death like that.

In the South Gate, that problem exists because the only threats were the beasts But instead the North Gate, the situation was not so pleasant.

This mainly because humanoid beings could attack from afar using stones; Titus had the misfortune to see how, in some cases, companions who were only a few meters away from him lit the fire.

The poor bastards who were burning in flames were quickly killed by one of their companions who were nearby, and their bodies were kicked rapidly to fall on the ground.

These burning bodies worked perfectly to create some areas that the humanoid beasts could not pass because the fire that it gave off was too intense.

These scenes were repeated throughout the city, and because of this, the beasts and humanoid beings quickly stopped attacking the city gates, which means a respite for the defenders, but it was not a sign that the battle was over.

The beasts began to attack increasingly active and began to accumulate their own bodies to create a kind of stairs that way they hoped to reach the top of the walls to be able to kill all the humans that were in place.

Even with the mass attack tactics of the beasts, the city of Teotihuacán had gained valuable time, although the battle had to continue.
