Rebel Demon King

Chapter 229 The Gods Enter the Hall of Valor (1)

"The end of every exploration will be the starting point of our departure." These words flashed across Cheng Mo's mind like lightning, piercing the impenetrable fog in his heart.

If there is any symbol that best expresses this sentence-it is ouroboros.

Because it symbolizes the "infinite loop", where the tail meets the head is both an end and a beginning.

If there is any object that can best express this sentence-it is a clock.

This is easy to understand. Whenever the three pointers return to the top scale, it means the end and start of a cycle.

So what does this have to do with registration and the Pantheon?
You must know that the original function of the Pantheon was not a church or a mausoleum. It was called "Pantheon" when it was built in ancient Rome, meaning dedicated to all gods, so it was called the Temple of the Gods.

The main gods of ancient Rome happened to be "twelve", consisting of 6 male gods and 6 goddesses, corresponding to the twelve statues of gods in the Pantheon.

If these twelve statues are regarded as scales, then the light obliquely descending from the round hole in the zenith is the pointer!
In other words, it is very likely that the Pantheon is actually the earliest timekeeping instrument in human history-the sundial (gui).

If this assumption is true, it can perfectly explain why a huge hole was deliberately left in the dome of this great building, because the Pantheon itself is a giant sundial-it needs light.

Cheng Mo was stunned by his discovery. He didn't know that historians who studied the Pantheon also had such speculations, but there was no conclusive evidence. Cheng Mo looked down at the time. It was already ten forty-five, almost ten One o'clock, if his deduction is correct, it should be the position of the light spot on the main hall at 45 o'clock. If nothing else, it should be a line above the head of Jupiter, the king of all living beings.

"What should we do now?" For the first time, Cheng Mo felt that the matter was imminent, and finally had a clue. Tang Wenjun from the liver mobile game, the two of them are teaming up with three girls to play King of Glory.

"Tang Wenjun, take a look at my boxes and things for me, I'll go around." Cheng Mo patted Tang Wenjun on the shoulder.

Tang Wenjun looked up at Cheng Mo and said, "Okay! No problem, Brother Mo."

As for Cheng Haoyang, he didn’t even look at it as a silent glance, and continued to play games with a blank face. He had already returned the 5 yuan to Xie Minyun. Originally, he planned to use WeChat to return it to Xie Minyun. He has an Alipay account, which made Cheng Haoyang a little disappointed, but he didn't have the courage to ask to add Xie Minyun as a friend. In fact, he didn't understand at all what about his cousin deserves Xie Minyun's special attention, just because he reads so much?
Cheng Mo put the travel bag he carried with him on Tang Wenjun's side, then said "thank you" to Tang Wenjun, and then walked towards the security check. Although his body is unlikely to pass through the customs, the carrier can pass Ah, because the farthest activation position of the carrier can be as far as 100 meters away from the local area, so for him, there are too many choices. He just needs to open the map and find a safe place where no one is around to activate the carrier. Time is running out for him.

The time he activated the carrier yesterday was 11:5. If he wants to get to the Pantheon before midnight, he must get from the airport to the Pantheon within 45 minutes. Fortunately, Rome is not too big, assuming he can make it smoothly If you rush out of the airport and catch a taxi as soon as possible, you still have a chance.

In addition, their flight will take off at 01:30. He hopes that everything will go well, so that he can return to the main body before one o'clock, and then regain consciousness and get on the plane back to the capital. Registering for this kind of thing, Cheng tacitly believes that it will not take too long, even if If it is too long, he has no choice but to trouble the tour guide and the team leader.

The departure floor is on the second floor, the first floor is undoubtedly the arrival floor, and the first floor is the shopping mall leading to the parking lot. After walking around, Cheng Mo found a most suitable place to sit down according to the three-dimensional map. This place is not far from Area 32 where they took off. It belongs to Area 41, and there are not many people sitting there. On the negative floor of Area 41, there is a safety staircase leading to the arrival floor.

Cheng Mo needed to grab a taxi as soon as possible. He looked down at the time, took a deep breath, leaned on the back of the chair, closed his eyes, and began to count in his heart, quietly waiting for the arrival of [-]:[-].

-------

It's fifteen past eleven.

On the first floor of Fiumicino Airport, most of the shops have closed, only a few restaurants such as Golden Arches and Kaifeng Cuisine are still serving customers tirelessly.

The air was quiet, and suddenly at the corner of a hidden safety staircase, a shining beam of light appeared, and the shining DNA lines slowly weaved a human body in it.

It was said to be slow, but it was because of the visual effects. In fact, the speed was astonishingly fast. After 1 minute, Cheng Mo's carrier, Lin Zhinuo, appeared in this dark corner out of thin air. After Cheng Mo's body was able to move, it immediately turned into a crippled streak. Ying ran up the stairs, even if Bolt was here, he might not be able to match Cheng Mo's speed.

The above is the side of the pick-up hall. Fiumicino Airport is brightly lit at midnight. Although the flow of people is far less than in the daytime, the number of arrivals is still considerable. Cheng Mo slowed down a little and rushed towards the taxi stop without stopping. .

He walked through the light crowd without any effort. The moment Cheng Mo rushed out of the automatic door, he first saw two cars beside the taxi stand not far away, a slightly older Hyundai Sonata, and the eighth-generation Mercedes-Benz E in the front. You don’t have to think about choosing a German car!Although the eighth generation of the E series is not new, it is much better than the Sonata.

But a couple stood in front of the Mercedes-Benz and seemed ready to get in the car.

The quality of Europeans is pretty good, and basically they have never encountered such a thing as grabbing a taxi, so there is no queuing point like the domestic ones.

Cheng Mo, who was already furious, couldn't control so much at this time, and rushed over with all his strength. Although he was more than ten or twenty meters away, it seemed that it only took two or three seconds. Generally, he opened the car door, closed the car door, then showed a hundred-yuan bill, and said to the driver who didn't know what happened: "Hurry up, Pantheon."

The couple didn't see Cheng Mo getting into the car at all, and they were about to knock on the window to ask the driver to open the trunk, but they were still waving their hands in the air, and found that the white taxi stepped on the accelerator and left in a hurry. It was very inexplicable at the same place. I don't know why the taxi actually dumped the passengers and ran away suddenly.

So he pointed his middle finger at the red triangular taillight.

"Sir, please hurry up. If you can reach the Pantheon within 45 minutes, I will give you two hundred euros." Cheng Mo fastened his seat belt, took out his passport from his trouser belt, and pulled it out again. Two hundred euro notes.

However, this little Italian guy didn't seem to understand English very well, so he didn't even think it was silent, so he spoke in Italian, babbling.

Cheng Mo could only take two hundred euros to the front of the dashboard of the Italian brother, who turned his head and glanced at him. He said: "Pantheon." He pointed to the timer on the taxi and said: "11 point forty-five." Then he pointed to two hundred euros: "give you!"

Adding the initial [-] euros, this is already [-] euros, and it only costs [-] euros from Fiumicino Airport to the center of Rome, which is already ten times the price.

As soon as Cheng Mo's words fell, he heard the roar of the engine, followed by the feeling of pushing back, and the white Mercedes pierced the night of Rome like an arrow.
