Ming Dynasty and New Rome and Infinite Magic Machine

Chapter 554 The Loom of Destiny

[So this is what it means? So this is what it means when Rome and Cathay are back to back?]

Coming out of Yuxi Palace, Apollonia was even more shocked:

[It turns out that Rome is responsible for solving the problems of the past, and Cathay is responsible for solving the future. But the shadow of the past is about to crush Rome.So next, are you going to be arbitrary for eternity? 】

"Actually, I still don't know if that person is me. For now, I still believe in the law of cause and effect. I believe that the cause and effect is still the basic law of the world. A thing must have a cause first and an effect later. As for what will happen next? There will be some 'transcendent existence' that transcends all things and interferes with what has happened across time, so that the cause is in the future and the effect is in the past. I am afraid that I cannot imagine it now. If that is really possible."

He pointed to the Jinling Hotel in the distance:

"If it's possible, if I jump off the Jinling Hotel, maybe there'll be a haystack underneath - because if I can change the world in the distant future anyway, it means that I can at least live until that distant future. Right? If I really shoulder such a mission in the future, it means that I will not die now no matter what? This is 'all things are empty, all things are allowed'."

[Of course, there is another possibility, that is, you are knocked to the ground and then sent to the Pure Land, and then come out after a thousand or eight hundred years to arbitrate for eternity.Tsk tsk tsk tsk. 】

"So I said, I can't believe this nonsense, I'm just joking. I can't really go to the haystack downstairs."

[However, this does remind me of something like this.Now that Rome is ruined, you can use it. 】

"what?"

【The Loom of Destiny. 】

"You mean something belonging to the three goddesses of destiny?"

【no.At first glance you would not know the process of the textile industry. You have to spin thread before weaving it into cloth.Themis gave birth to not only the three goddesses of fate, but also the three goddesses of time.Among them, the famous three goddesses of fate are in the front row. They weave the thread of fate.What weaves the threads of fate into a tapestry are the three goddesses of time, the past, the present, and the future.So the name is loom, which naturally refers to the second half of the process. 】

"What's the use of that thing?"

[Theoretically useless.Don't forget the responsibilities of the three goddesses of fate themselves - they are responsible for spinning, measuring and cutting the thread of fate, representing the origin, development and end of life.In other words, all the threads of fate that entered the loom have been cut.In other words, only the threads of the dead will be spun by the loom of fate.If you want to know how you're going to die, ask for a piece of the tapestry of fate. 】

"Good guy! Why do I need to know how I'm going to die?"

[Because if you know how you will die, it means you will not die before then.This doesn't make sense to a god like Odin knowing he's going to die at Ragnarok, it just makes him panic.But if you think about it on the other hand - if a mortal learns that he will die in Ragnarok, then what he must be thinking is: 'Good guy!I can still live until Ragnarok!Earn money with blood! '.That's basically the situation. 】

"Ah, I see. If a mortal knows that he can live until Ragnarok, then that means two things. First, he may be immortal until Ragnarok in some way. Second, to say the least, it's at least Can this mean that he entered the Hall of Valor and participated in the battle in Ragnarok as an Enhelian Heroic Warrior?" [Yes, that's true. 】

"But what does this mean to me? I'm not a mortal anymore."

[If you really want to know if you will die, ask for a sign.Or similar methods, you should be able to find them here. Even I can help you detect the flow of some fate.Of course, I cannot detect the ultimate destiny. There is no specialization in the art.But as I said before, there is no difference between an unchangeable prophecy and a curse.But there are always some people who are willing to fight even if they are willing to bear the curse. 】

"Wait, you mean someone has already done this?"

【have.There is such a 'harpy' army in Rome.Just like the Hydra troops rely on the blood of Hydra, they are all people who have witnessed the tapestry of their own destiny. To a certain extent, they can also be regarded as the living dead, because all of them know how and when they will die. .But before the time of death arrives, they will not die anyway, because their fate has been determined.If you try to kill them, something very weird might happen to make you miss. 】

"Do you Romans like to arm yourselves with weird stuff like this?"

[There is no way, if you don’t have hard power, you can only use this kind of magic.If you don't have enough strength, just use magic to make it up.But I personally am not optimistic about these troops, because once they start using them, they become slaves to the artifact.Although they have achieved immortality to a certain extent, they still have to face the end of their destiny. 】

"That's true."

[Very helpless, right?But sometimes it's necessary.In the face of the immortals of Cathay, mortal bodies are still too insignificant after all. They can only find a way to obtain a 'golden body' from the long river of the past, even if they leave behind Achilles' heel. .What do you think? 】

"In the past, I might have been envious. But from my current perspective, I can see that this kind of power cannot transcend the shackles of 'demigods'. Because they cannot be the masters of their own power in any way. This It doesn’t matter if you don’t need this kind of blessing. However, it seems to be really powerful. After all, although it is difficult for Qi practitioners to die, it is not impossible for a few to die occasionally. If we can recruit immortal power to cooperate with us in fighting, this will improve the combat effectiveness. very big."

[Do you have any plans to recruit them? 】

"Can you recruit them?"

[Of course, because these special forces are theoretically under the jurisdiction of the Oracle.Theoretically I could summon them at any time.And regardless of my opinion, judging from the general trend of cooperation between Cathay and Rome, Rome will not object to your borrowing troops.But the condition is that you probably have to find a task for them first.They can listen to your orders, but they may not listen to your preaching. 】

"Why do I sound like I recruited eight hundred grass-headed gods? There are all kinds of weird things."

[It’s appropriate to think so.In short, as long as they can be used, you don't care where their power comes from. 】

"Yeah" Shangluo nodded.
