Ming Dynasty and New Rome and Infinite Magic Machine

Chapter 357 Huang’s Death

"Hello?"

In front of Caesar, Shangluo stretched out his hand and greeted him.

Caesar's lips moved - more like a tremor - but there was no message beyond that.The empty eyes looked straight at him without any brilliance.

Then, he moved.

Caesar stood up suddenly, his body became fuller and fuller at a speed visible to the naked eye, his gray hair began to gradually turn black, and even the golden laurel branches on the top of his head regained their luster.

The surrounding landscape changed faster than Caesar himself - the light of Alexandria's lighthouse became more and more distant, but also more and more like the sun, until only a ball of light remained hanging in the sky.Surrounded by white desert and crescent-shaped sand dunes, everything was lifeless. Only the marching steps of the army remained on the ridges of the dunes.

Following the pace, the surrounding lights and shadows are changing faster and faster.

"Bang", Caesar thrust his large shield into the sand dunes, and the changes in the surrounding scene also ended——

He glanced at Shangluo.By this time Caesar had fully returned to his heyday, and more than that.His cheeks were also painted maroon, as red as Guan Gong, which is a symbol of the gods.The army rallied behind him, and Crocea Mors, the legendary sword belonging to Caesar, returned to his hands.

Looking at Shangluo, he gestured forward with his hand, asking Shangluo to look forward:

A black cube suddenly appeared in the distance on the horizon, standing far away from the Lighthouse of Alexandria.One corner of the cube touches the earth, while the other reaches into the clouds.

Although it was as far away as "looking at the mountain and running to death", the black cube still occupied a small half of the horizon, spinning quietly there.

"That is?"

Caesar did not answer, but grabbed Shangluo's hand, pressed it on the hilt of Huang Zhisei's sword and drew out the sword.

The sword was drawn out - but Shangluo could feel that the power to draw the sword seemed to be exerted only by himself, without any strength coming from Caesar.

Holding the end of the sword, Caesar pointed the tip of the sword in the direction of the black cube:

As his vision gradually narrowed, the black cube gradually occupied his entire field of vision - the details of the cube were also easier to observe.The surface of the cube is not smooth, but has irregularly distributed doorways.The cube rotated quickly and slowly, allowing Shangluo to see every side clearly.The number of doors on each side is different, but the total number is one hundred.

There was a white, ivory-like chariot in the sky inside the door, and a chariot was speeding towards his position. In a blink of an eye, he could see the face of the driver clearly - and the other party also saw him. .

"It's you!"

"It's you!"

"Are you the Dragon Tooth Soldier at this time?" This face left a deep impression on him.This was one of the Dragon Tooth Soldiers who ran out of Lake Nemi and took advantage of him.Now they drive chariots and seem to have acquired quite a distinguished status.

"Why did you come here? Go back quickly! Thunder is coming!"

"So this is Thebes?"

He suddenly turned back to look in the direction of Caesar - but when he looked over, all the surrounding scenes were weathered, disintegrated, and scattered like dust.Sitting on the throne was still the skinny old man.

"Huh? What happened?"

【what happened? 】

Almost at the same time, the voices of Apollonia and Victoria came from behind.

Shangluo had just come back to his senses.When he looked at Caesar again, Caesar had closed his eyes and looked much more "serene" than before. "Wait, didn't you see it too?" he asked Apollonia.

【No.I saw you in a daze in front of the throne for several seconds - and then suddenly you pulled out a golden sword from the void and pointed it to the south? ] Apollonia couldn’t tell clearly.

Before he could reply, Victoria also asked: "Is that the one you have in your hand, Huang's Death?"

Only then did Shangluo notice that his hand had weight.A Roman dagger appeared in his hand. The entire sword was the same golden color as gold. The tail was a spherical counterweight. In addition to the relief of Caesar's martial arts, there were also the four letters SPQR.

"It should be. It was drawn from Caesar's scabbard."

"Huh? Why can you unsheath Caesar's sword? Wait, I remember!" Victoria said in astonishment, "You are. You are the King of Rome!"

"Does this setting exist?"

"Ah," Victoria looked lonely, "It seems that I am not as orthodox as you in front of Caesar. Caesar has never said a word to me. Perhaps in his eyes, I am actually a strange Greek. ...and in Roman tradition, we Greeks are not allowed to touch the sword."

"why?"

"Because according to legend, this sword was made by Vulcan and presented by the goddess of beauty Venus to her son Aeneas, the prince of Troy. At that time, the name of the sword was called 'Trojan Fire', and together with this sword Also given to Aeneas was the 'Shield of Aeneas'. The fate of Aeneas's descendants and the grand picture of Rome's future were printed on the front of the shield. There was also a complete set of helmets.

"After the defeat of Troy, Aeneas sailed to the sea and founded the city of Rome in Italy. So this sword is the enemy of Greece, or to be precise, the enemy of the Achaeans. Unfortunately, Rome and Greece A merger occurred in the future. The person in front of you is a Greek. On the contrary, you, who is confirmed as the king of Rome, are 'closer' to this sword. So, what did Caesar let you see?"

"He showed me the Hundred Gates of Thebes." Shangluo replied confidently.

"what?"

【what? 】

After a while.

[Wait a minute. It’s true!There is a sympathetic link!I can now find the location of the Hundred Gates of Thebes!in the South!Aha!I found it!but】

"Shangluo, you are in very danger now." Victoria said seriously, "You saw the city of Thebes of Amon Zeus, right? The direction you pointed just now is the direction of Thebes? But when you looked at him , he is also watching you! All the operators we went to get the news died because they all disappeared inexplicably on the way back. You should go back now."

"So it turns out that if you look at this too much, you will be punished?"

"So we didn't know what Caesar did from the beginning. It was all an order from the Muses Palace. It doesn't matter even if the Muses Palace is known, but if we are targeted by Amon Zeus, it will be troublesome. That’s big.”

"Then I am now."

"Yes. Now, immediately, go back immediately."

"What about the key I was assigned?"

"Because you are responsible for the cause and effect, we can instead send a large army to conquer. Please wait a few days. It will be fine in a few days. Take the sword that Caesar gave you with you. We may ask you to help with it in the meantime. Small thing, but no big deal.”

"I understand this, but there is one thing." Shangluo brought the sword in front of him, "Do you have a scabbard? There is only a sword blade without a scabbard, so it is not convenient to pick it up."

"Uh, I'll trouble you to stuff it into your own baggage. When the battle is over, I'll ask Caesar if there's anything he can do."

　Let’s take a little rest today and update first.
