29

The group locates The Burning Shield, a mountain emitting energy that activates Tao's golden jar. Inside, they encounter goblin-like humanoids using advanced technology powered by a giant crystal. A voice claiming to be the "God of the Olmecs" knocks them unconscious. They awaken in a laboratory where leader Menator demands their cells to slow his people's aging. Mendoza rescues them, and after escaping the mountain, they reach a cliff overlooking the valley. Mendoza observes the cities they have visited and realizes they have been walking in circles, yet he remains convinced that the Cities of Gold are nearby. The episode concludes with a mini-documentary about Lake Atitlan, detailing its agricultural value and associated mythology.
