Ming Dynasty and New Rome and Infinite Magic Machine

Chapter 801 Bacchus
[Let me remind you that Alexander was born for the second time, just like Dionysus. There are too many elements bound to Alexander. He has integrated the elements of Dionysus and Apollo, and through the recognition of the Amun priest, he directly became the son of Amon Zeus. Once he was reborn again, he would ascend as Ceres himself, an god even older than Zeus himself. He is already drinking the blood of Ambrosia, and he wants you to join in the Dionysian ecstasy. 】

Alexander looked at him. Waiting for his answer.

"So after knowing all this, do I still want to cooperate with him?"

[If you don’t cooperate with him, you won’t know what he is going to do. But I think cooperation is better than non-cooperation. Because you really can't kill him - in his current state, death is more terrifying than alive. Through a ritualized death, Alexander had locked the position of Apollo in himself. He's really just missing something, an element from Dionysus. 】

"Wait a minute, my seat is..."

【Yes. Blood, tear, rebirth, your position as King of Rome-King of the Forest belongs to the side of Dionysus. I guess he's targeting you. And he is only the king of Greece now. If he takes away the throne of the Roman king from you again, and adds Amun to the position of sun god sacrificed to him, he will become the undisputed king of Greece, Rome, Egypt, and the entire empire. owner. He is taking on the armor of Dionysus. And this is the only missing piece of such a huge puzzle! He might challenge you next! 】

Challenge, this is important. Shangluo obtained the position of forest king by breaking branches and challenging.

Shangluo calmed down and looked at Alexander: "Since you want to exchange my efforts for Apollonia's arrival, then let's make a price."

"You're getting more and more sober, and you're getting more and more crazy. You know what I'm going to do, don't you? I can read it in your eyes."

"Well, tell me your terms. What do you want?"

really. Shangluo knew that he had guessed correctly, and Alexander was indeed going to challenge him.

"This is what I want to challenge - the King of Rome! I want to challenge your drinking ability! Do you dare!"

"???" Shangluo blinked, "What the hell?"

"The venue is right here."

"I want you to accept my challenge! I invited you here just for this!"

"Here?" Shangluo looked around, "There are all pots and pans here. It's hard to clean up if they are broken. Are you sure you don't want to change them?"

【Eh? 】

"Okay, you can choose a venue." Shangluo reached into his arms, ready to take out the dick.

Shangluo slapped his forehead with his palm: "So you tried every possible means to persuade me to drink in the first place, just to compete with me?"

"I want to compete with you in drinking. Is there anything you don't understand?"

【ah! yes! What he wants is the fragment of Dionysus, and isn’t that just drinking wine! 】

"Yes." Alexander replied, "If you can't drink, then all my preparations will be in vain. So, we will decide the outcome of the game. Do you want to drink? The fairy delicacies and secret wine are ready."

"I have to explain clearly what the bet is before you do it."

"If you lose." He clapped his hands and shouted behind him: "Ptolemy!" "Understood!" Ptolemy picked up the tray that had been prepared from the side and presented it to Shangluo respectfully.

Pulling open the tray under the silk, Shangluo saw a branch.

"Did you bring the Golden Bough?"

"Actually, after the order is restored in Lake Nemi, it is quite easy to get the golden branches." Alexander twisted the golden branches on the plate with his hands. "Let me remind you, as the king of Rome, it is easy for you to be challenged. As long as you He can just hold the golden branch, and you can't refuse. I don't bother to attack like a slave, because this is a duel between kings, so I challenge you with the golden branch."

Shangluo knew what he meant. Whether Alexander is really unwilling to "sneak attack" is secondary. The main thing is that Alexander wants to be not just the shadow king in the forest, he wants to be the king of Rome. In fact, the King of the Forest is not exactly the same as the King of Rome. This must be recognized at least to a certain extent, otherwise the era of kingship itself will not end. Only with the approval of Shangluo could the King of Rome transfer it legitimately.

"What if I win? Help Apollonia come out?"

"Everything!" He spread his hands, "My bet is everything in Thebes. This is the king of the Greek world, a challenge to the king of Rome, the challenge of the Achaeans to Troy, and a reenactment of the Battle of Troy. . As long as you win, everything in Thebes is yours, and the whole world is yours. Let Apollonia come out, just a small part of it."

"Is this the hook you used to lure me to the table?"

"I'm just showing you a small part of the bet in advance. At best, it's just to induce consumption. Even the gashapon machine has to clearly mark the prize pool, right? Of course I have to explain our respective gains and losses clearly."

"."

"So, do you agree? Your world, or my world."

【Hey Hey hey! I was wrong! I am afraid! Think clearly! You really have to think clearly! How about we ask Phaethon again]

"No need." Shangluo stretched out his hand and took the golden branch. The moment it touched him, the golden branch withered and shattered, and the ceremony began.

"Although I've never been a fan of drinking. But if I can get something at the wine table that I can't get anywhere else, I'm happy to end up there."

"Very good, very good." Alexander applauded, "I have a hunch that I will lose. Your sober madness is exactly what is necessary to win the drinking game. I think you are going to win."

"Don't talk about it yet. There are no rules, right? No matter what, just drink it."

"Of course, that's how it should be." Alexander replied, "Besides, you don't have to worry about other issues. The establishment of the contract means that I am indeed qualified to challenge the King of Rome. The prerequisite for me to challenge is that I am really fighting with You are on the same page. As you saw just now, I can really drink, and it is really possible to get drunk. I am not a ghost who will be exposed when I drink, and the secret wine Ambrosia is not allowed to be drunk like this. "

"I still have to observe what it is."

"Of course, of course." Alexander nodded, "Of course you should be fully prepared. According to the rules, we should compete at the home court of the Forest King. So, it is up to you to decide when to start. You can make any requests. Build your home court.”

"Ambrosia, give me a bucket first, and I'll see what this is all about. How many have you prepared?"

"As much as you want. Ambrosia is as endless as the fountain of youth. It can never be finished. It is enough for the two of us to compete until the end of time - provided that the two of us can really drink that much."
