Chapter 105 The Insider

【where? 】

"I always feel that their magic is very similar to the gameplay of some games. For example, the Hydra troops who can accumulate experience and trial and error through infinite resurrection, and can teleport between similar sacrificial fields. They Are you playing some video game?"

【Um? ] Apollonia paused:
[I searched for the entry of 'video game' and it was really, really similar, so similar.However, there are only so many material forms and materials that humans can touch, and the basic patterns that can be understood are generally limited, so the things created will always repeat certain characteristics.But there is one thing that makes me feel very, very similar. You know, the "insiders" in Rome are actually limited. 】

"They have a player limit?"

【Yes.6666 to be exact, all of whom are listed on the Golden Book of Constantinople and who were also members of the Senate.They are the ones who hold the lights in the dark night, they are the ones who drink the blood of Hydra, they are the ones who are trained to join the inner guard, and they are the ones who perform various rituals.So this is what surprised me the most: you got the old branch, which means they are willing to accept you to join the trial of the golden branch. 】

"Is that a ceremony that requires complete secrecy?"

[Yes, this is because magic is related to 'night', and night needs mystery and darkness.Let too many people know and it won't work.Therefore, the location of the sacrificial field will be very remote, and it is not cost-effective to use the sacrificial field to move - this is different from your 'sun', the sun's light shines all over the earth.The imperial court also hoped that everyone could eat celestial root. 】

"It seems to be about the same number as Qi practitioners?"

[It's almost the same.The two sides maintain a balance of power in some respects, but they use them in different ways.For example, Qi trainers would openly fly fighter jets to suppress, but Rome's way of doing things is much more gloomy.This also makes them occasionally suffer on the frontal battlefield.But if you look at it from a perspective of tens or hundreds of years, their suppression of technological barbarians can be said to be just right.It not only preserves the richness of the world at the symbolic level, but also prevents them from threatening the rule of the empire. 】

"It's true that I still feel that the other half of the world is immersed in the fog."

【Ha, that would be too scary.If it really reached that point, the mystery might have gotten out of control.Moonlight is also light, and human civilization must ultimately unfold in light, not in shadows. 】

"Will that kind of thing happen? The world is covered in thick fog, and there are monsters raging in invisible places."

Apollonia was silent for a while.

【I have no idea.I only know that human beings own and deserve to own this world.There has never been a lack of bravery among human beings.If disaster befalls, the Hydra and the rest of the guard will not fall behind you, and the Romans are not short of brave men.As long as Cathay and Rome are there, the light of civilization will not be swallowed by barbarism, or anything else. 】

After lunch, Shang Luo, who had taken leave of absence, waited at the school gate.But before Lu Huaiyang and the military vehicle arrived, an acquaintance was already waiting there.

"Huh? Wenyuan, did you ask for leave this afternoon?"

"Yeah, my master said that there is an outside job. After finding your team to maintain the vehicles, my side is much more relaxed-I am quite troublesome now. I am going to school, and at the same time I have an internship in Jinyiwei. Tsk, if you really get admitted to the Imperial College, there will be more work. By the way, did you run into the Ripper last night?"

This matter was mentioned in the Fetion group this morning.Shangluo just turned over.

What was said in the Fetion group was relatively brief, but Shang Luo recounted what happened last night in more detail.

"Ah, I'm so envious."

"What's there to envy about?"

"That's the Ripper, that's an urban legend! Ah, if only I could see it too."

"Aren't you Jin Yiwei? You don't know what an urban legend is?"

"Tch, the news often says that there are wild boars rushing into the street, and you also want to see what the wild boars look like. That's the Ripper, wild boars, not pork that you see every day. You shouldn't report Jin, next time you come to me directly! Maybe I'll catch him on the spot."

"Can I call you out directly? Where is your home?"

"Of course it's also in Wuyi Lane, just a few alleys away. If you had called me at that time, I would have rushed out of the house immediately."

"Okay, okay, I'll call you next time. But why are you in such a hurry?"

"Hey, I want to see if I can make such a pill~"

"You want to eat people, don't you!"

"Keep your voice down. How can this be called cannibalism? Reasonable use of extraordinary resources. It's a wild boar. The radishes grown at home are not strong enough, and the bananas grown by Lanfang are not very good. But this Ripper, I think he has something. Perhaps some kind of elixir can be refined from it."

[It really can be refined, the blood of Hydra can be refined.Of course, you have to find the ontology. 】Apolonia reminded, 【So it is indeed similar to wild game.That was the super game that the Romans got from Hydra. 】

"How about it?" Wen Yuan suggested, "How about next time."

"Is this in line, Zhou Li?"

"What's not polite, what we hit is ours. The wild boar drove into our woods, so we should kill it. I don't know why I told the Romans, why didn't we call it ourselves Stewed?"

"Because that's not an ordinary wild boar!" Lu Huaiyang's voice suddenly appeared behind, and it came out from the school gate.Shang Luo was taken aback, and Wen Yuan hurried back to explain:

"Ah! Master, I didn't mean that. I am"

"I warn you, don't catch that wild boar casually. That wild boar is very dangerous, so I invited professionals to deal with it. You, go up and drive. Shangluo, you also go up, we are leaving now, it is getting late."

"In a hurry? Where are we going?"

"Go to Dajiaochang Airport first, and then take the conveyor to Pudong Airport. It's a diplomatic mission, but it's also related to you. The Roman Guard sent a Hydra unit to deal with the 'wild boar'. They offered to apologize , and I will give you some personal gifts, including some follow-up work. Because it is a gift, I didn’t refuse it for you. Do you want to see me? If not, we will continue the mystic defense class in the afternoon.”

"Can I have the inner guard teach me how to defend against the Ripper?"

"Huh?" Lu Huaiyang thought for a while, "Yes. And you seem to have some questions to ask yourself. The problem is not serious, so we will arrange a meeting. There is no need to report the content of the meeting. Cultivators can keep some small secrets. If he is willing to give you some presents during the meeting, you might as well accept them."

 Today's other updates are still sent at noon
