Ming Dynasty, New Rome, and Infinite Divine Machine

She asked Shangluo:

[Chendan will never tolerate this. 】

"I don't need to think about it to know that this is impossible. But if they are allowed to bring extraordinary beings into the world and make them walk - or even allow humans to shape extraordinary beings on their own, then those past experiences will indeed be different. So important.”

【Can the Great Wall stop these?】

Chapter 785 Fantasy

"I don't know. But I know that our civilization did not build the Great Wall just to be enclosed. The Great Wall is not a defensive barrier for the country. The Great Wall should be the starting point for controlling the wilderness. What the Great Wall establishes is civilization's control over barbarism. It’s not just out of fear. But it would be great fun if there were monsters everywhere outside the Great Wall. I don’t want to face the scene of wild monsters outside the Great Wall again.”

[Because, it’s not like it hasn’t happened before, right? 】

"So we must not let this happen again. The Great Wall is not an ice wall made of magic. It also relies on humans to defend it, and it relies on many people. How can it be defended without anyone. But if everyone has to defend it Great Wall, then our life will be completely ruined. I know that the court in Yujing may have a problem, and it is a big problem. It is hard for me to imagine that the BR county magistrate will solve the case at the same time as the rail transit. moment, but judging from the current situation, there seems to be no problem at all.

"Because people know etiquette because they are honest, etiquette will also be broken when the warehouse goes bankrupt. Look at our county magistrate, Old Man Yang, I can't even imagine that he has any need to be a black-hearted county magistrate - he wants face, he wants to What other things are there? Just face, which he has to earn by himself. But if the situation takes a turn for the worse, for example, everyone's rations will not be collected casually by filling in a form, but they will have to be divided by him as the county magistrate. , I don’t believe he can continue to be a saint. Even if he wants to, the people around him can only make him give up this idea.”

[So, if the vision of Amon Zeus is true, if he brings the spiritual world to humans and allows the Western Hemisphere to enter the dream of the heroic age. 】

"That's the moment when our dream wakes up." Shangluo was silent for a while, "or it's more appropriate to say it's the moment when the dream is broken. We could have had a greater future, and we still have many things to do. We can't be let down. The gravity of reality is here.”

[So, are you going to be more serious? 】

"I was very serious, after all, this was not a spring outing. But before, I just thought that this was the worst, the worst, the worst case scenario, but a lot of [Mianmian Baiyun Township] exploded across the Western Hemisphere. But that is actually It’s nothing, it will turn the Western Hemisphere into many interesting blind boxes. Although it is a bit more dangerous, it will not increase the pressure on our border defense. On the contrary, it will increase the motivation to open up the border. And if the vision of Amon Zeus is realized- The ones locked in the blind box will become us! So instead of waiting to be turned into blind boxes, we should break them into boxes first!"

【ha? What do you mean? 】

"Let me ask you, can [Aotearoa] seal everything?"

【sure. Even Archangel Michael, who left everyone, including Helios, helpless, could be sealed in Hagia Sophia. If there is any catastrophe here, we can also seal it in together. Hey, hey, hey! What are you going to do? 】

"I'm going to blow up [Aotearoa]."

【Hey Hey hey! They hired you to defuse bombs! Not for some bombs! 】

"My judgment is that only by exploding this bomb can we avoid something worse from happening. This is just one place, there are more places. If the one [Aotearoa] here is not enough, detonate it again Otherwise. If they want to dream about the [Heroic Age], then they can dream in [Mianmian Baiyun Township]!"

[If this is your decision, then I can only support you. 】

"Are you scared?"

[What you said is very reasonable. Rather than being turned into a blind box by others, it is better to take the initiative to put others into boxes. Aotearoa is prepared for this. 】

"Ha, then we have reached an agreement?"

[Wait a minute, I have to ask our captain. I pulled her into this private chat channel. 】

Phaethon joined the discussion group.

Shangluo waited for a while and asked her to scroll up the chat history.

"So do you think this can be done?"

"Yes! Of course I can!!!" Phaethon excitedly typed three exclamation marks.

"Why do you look like it's Chinese New Year?"

"Because I've wanted to blow that thing up for a long time! Don't you want to? When you see such a big bomb, don't you want to know what it will look like after it explodes?"

"Forehead"

"You must have thought so. Who doesn't like to see explosions? And the closer you get to those bombs, the more breathtaking power you can feel. I can't wait to see them explode~"

"Then since you agree, this is our consensus." Shangluo originally thought that he would have to persuade Phaethong for a while. Now it seems that she wants to see the explosion more than she does - maybe she just wants to see the explosion.

Shangluo was not too surprised by her decision. After all, from the first time they met, Phaethon had always liked watching explosions.

"It's much easier to light a bomb than to defuse it. So." Phaethon paused, "The first thing we have to determine is how Pompey Jr. wants to achieve his plan."

"He mentioned the "Forbidden Code" in Karin's hand. Maybe that is the key. Is this news true?"

"I think it's quite true. The Forbidden Code seals not only the information, but also the magic itself. Although as users of magic, we are very dependent on the existence of magic, but we actually don't want magic to spread. Let me use an analogy. , the fireball technique - the fireball technique you are familiar with, is sealed inside. "

"Is this, magical power?"

"Yes." Phaethon replied, "Supernatural power is to summon elves, demons, or other beings to help you realize your vision of releasing magic. I haven't seen the specific content, but I know that there is a 'fireball' skill in it. The demon god', and even many fire element elves can be released as long as they are willing to respond. This book itself is a seal, and it is an untouchable seal. Only elves can see it.”

"Then if it is obtained."

"He can make his big dream come true by just turning out a few pages. So, absolutely, absolutely, he cannot get it. Who has the book now?"

"In Karina."

"Let her run away! Quick! Let her run out first. We still have time to visit, and she can't delay for a second. What's her phone number?"

"It will be discovered." Shangluo replied, "That guy has horns. The jade plaque can be hidden in front of her, but that doesn't mean anything else can. The phone definitely won't work."

"Then, I have to use this one. If you have this number, you can call it."

"What?" Shangluo saw a string of numbers sent by Phaethon.

"It's the devil in charge of 'Bicycles that won't fall over'. I told you before. Call her. She lives in the book and is an old acquaintance of mine. Let her run away with Karin, right away."

Chapter 786 Demon God

"Signal, send!" Shangluo edited the message and sent a message requesting assistance to the number given by Phaethon——

Almost at the same time as sending, little Pompeo suddenly sat up: "What did you do? Demon God! You summoned the Demon God! What Demon God?"

Little Pompeo, who had no reaction to the private chat between several people just now, finally noticed the movement. The communication method Shangluo used this time was exactly the same as before, but the destination was different.

[It turns out that this guy relies on rituals to sense things, not information. ] Apollonia started to voice directly in the chat room this time, [Idiot, idiot, slightly. 】

Little Pompeo still had no reaction. He was still in the process of questioning Shangluo - he wanted to know what demon god he had summoned just now.

"Want to know? Just wait and see." Shangluo doesn't know either, he has to wait and see.

Wait no more than one second.

With a loud "bang", a black shadow blocked the sunlight coming through the skylight. Shangluo looked up and saw a car.

It was the car that Karin was riding in at the back of the motorcade. At this time, the whole car was spinning wildly like a wet dog shaking water, and the speed of rotation was so fast that it almost left an afterimage. The car door was thrown open, and the things in the car flew in all directions, including several of Pompey's men sitting in the car.

Little Pompeo was dumbfounded, and Shangluo also looked up -

The car spun forward while leaping forward, leaping in front of the car Shangluo and Pompeo were riding in. Then, using its physical center of gravity as the origin, it started spinning in circles on the road like a top, blocking the middle of the road. The car Shangluo was riding in swerved violently and stopped before loading.

Karin jumped out of the car in front of her while still spinning, still holding the open grimoire in her hand.

She spun three full weeks in the air and landed beautifully, her knees not even touching the ground. But compared with her vigorous movements, her expression was extremely panicked.

Standing up, she tried to step back in panic, but her left hand seemed to be anchored in space and would not move at all.

There are six fingers on her left hand. The extra finger is the ring finger belonging to another "Karin". The hands of elves have six fingers. At that time, Shangluo cut off the ring finger of "Karin" on her left hand, which relieved her from the dream of being an elf.

It was also at the end of the Golden Branch incident that Karin connected to the severed finger and also relieved herself of the hidden dangers of being an incomplete human being. At that time, her consciousness was constantly disintegrating. When Shangluo lived in her house, she Nor can he control his own behavior. After being connected to that finger, both Karin and "Karin" became existences between humans and elves, and their existence became stable.

But now, it was that hand that was completely out of Karin's control, and even "anchored" in space. That hand seemed to carry far more power than Karin herself.

"What's going on! What happened! My left hand Shangluo!" Seeing Shangluo, she finally found a life-saving straw. "My left hand doesn't work! Just now, this hand suddenly stopped working! This hand suddenly I started to flip through the book, turned to one of the pages, and then I slapped my hand on the roof of the car, and the world outside started to spin. But, I didn’t seem to be dizzy? "

She thought about it for a moment: "I was sitting in the car just now and saw everything else flying out. I was the only one sitting there who was fine. Shangluo! And Miss Phaethon! Come and help me!"

However, before Shangluo could respond to her, her unruly left hand started to move on its own.

He slowly raised his left hand in the air towards Shangluo and gave a thumbs up.

[The contract is established! The magic is unleashed! Now the demon god who controls the bicycle that won't fall over in New Rome has descended upon Karin. No, it seems to be only on her left hand?]

"There is an elf's ring on her left hand." Phaethon looked out the car window and sent a message to Shangluo, "Now her left hand has become a good conductor of magic, even a superconductor, so that other places are There is no magic power spreading out. The power of the devil has almost completely descended - although it is only the left hand, this left hand is now a devil-level left hand."

"What have you done!" The situation was out of control, and little Pompeo could not maintain his previous demeanor. "Did the devil come into her hands?"

"If you know, surrender quickly." Shangluo understood what Phaethon said, and now it was his turn to threaten Pompey, "You should know better than me how powerful this is."

"What have you paid for? You can actually let the devil himself come here."

"Ah this." Shangluo really didn't know what he had paid for. He asked Apollonia: "Do I still have to pay for this?"

【Ah, yes. As the name suggests, supernatural power is to communicate with the gods. If you want to release the fireball, you need the assistance of the demon or other elemental consciousness related to the fireball. If you call her out here, you have to pay for it. 】

"Huh? Phaethon, how much does this cost?" He quickly asked Phaethon, after all, he was summoned at her suggestion.

"It's very expensive." Phaethon replied, "But don't worry. I asked you to summon her because I applied for an annual card with her. You can use it at a discounted price within a year and pay it with a prepayment. The cost of the ceremony itself - so you don’t have to spend money, I have already paid it.”

"Eh? Then why didn't you use it before?"

"It wasn't in the service area before! I don't have the magic book in my hand, and I don't have other summoning media. I can't summon the gods empty-handed. Now it's here with Karin. This feels like it will cost a lot of money. Although I paid in advance before , but the complete magical power of the devil is very expensive, even if it only has one hand, it seems to be very expensive."

"If you are in arrears, you won't send a bill, right?"

"No. Unless the devil has other requests, he will get off work at a certain time. Once the money in the card is used up, the contract will be automatically terminated. But we are old acquaintances. She taught me how to ride a bicycle when I was a child. Then She had already dealt with the card at that time, so she shouldn’t be so heartless. Hey, wait! She moved. "

Shangluo looked over - Karin's left hand, turned her wrist, and made a gesture of looking at the watch.

"Ah!" Phaethon understood, "What she means is, pay attention to the fees! The fees will probably be very high! It's okay if you don't move now, but if you start moving, the fees will be very high! Maybe the fees will be burned all at once. Light!"

"What should I do?"

Phaethon stuck his head out of the car window: "Move! Move yourself! Don't let the devil move for you! You have to control the devil!"

Chapter 787 The Devil’s Left Hand

"Ah?" Karin gritted her teeth and tried to pull her hand back, but her left hand still didn't move at all.

"I can't move!"

"Don't fight her! Don't fight! Convey your meaning! Now you are the first user, you have to operate it yourself! This is magical power, do you understand? You have to control it yourself!"

Little Pompey jumped out of the car and pointed behind him: "Phaethon! Don't talk too much! This is an important matter for all of us. Do you want to fight against Amon Zeus?"

"Tsk, are you afraid of what I say?" Phaethon shook his head, "Then feel free to start your performance."

"Remember it for me!"

Shangluo opened the car door and looked at him: "If you have the ability, come to me. Don't 'remember' it. If you have any opinions, you can raise them now."

"You are useful to the grand scheme of things."

"Then shut up." Shangluo crossed his arms, "Karin is going to run away now. What are you going to do? If the magic book is taken away, all your big and small plans will turn into drowned chicken plans. Bar."

"I will convey your words to Amon Zeus." He rolled his eyes at Shangluo and ignored him. Although it can be noticed that Shangluo's current strength is only at the level of a mortal, his level of mystery cannot be ignored. Even in the presence of Ammon Zeus himself, the Roman king was his guest, not his attendant.

Little Pompeo took out the walkie-talkie and spoke a few words quickly - there was a muffled sound of heavy objects moving in the trucks behind the convoy, which was the sound of marble moving on the steel plate carriage.

There are pure white stone statues coming down from the truck. The first step the stone statue stepped on the ground caused tiny cracks to break into the cement floor.

"So you have dragon tooth soldiers?"

"I know you have seen the Dragon Tooth Soldiers before. But Mr. Shangluo, they are completely different from the Dragon Tooth Soldiers you have seen before - they are not stupid stones. They have been exposed to the twilight of Amon Zeus enough For a long time, they have had complete consciousness. They are the angels of Thebes."

"Oh" Shangluo raised his hand, "Then please start your performance."

"I advise you not to move!" Little Pompey looked back at Shangluo, "I don't know what your plans are. Whether you are willing to accept Amon Zeus's plan or not, I hope you and Phae Don't move, sir. You are the guests of Amon Zeus, and you are in the position of guests. But if you participate in actions that directly confront Amon Zeus, we have to carry out certain mandatory orders, which is very important to us. It’s not good. Even if-" He looked at Shangluo:

"Even if you have your own considerations, I hope you at least feel confident before taking action."

"You don't need to teach me this."

"Thank you very much." After explaining to Shangluo, he looked ahead, "Take the forbidden book from her hand!" Little Pompeo ordered with his marshal's scepter - no military order in reply, no extra etiquette, they Directly respond to orders with the silent actions of the Dragon Tooth Soldiers.

A whole team of dragon tooth soldiers started running. Although it looks quite bulky on the outside, it is so fast that it is completely beyond Shangluo's expectation - it is also different from the dragon tooth soldiers that Shangluo has seen before.

Tireless and infinitely powerful. According to legend, it was these dragon tooth soldiers who built the huge city of Thebes in a matter of seconds.

Now these Dragon Tooth Soldiers are not using weapons. Because Pompey the Younger's order was to get the book back, using weapons rashly would damage the book itself - this did not require additional orders from Pompey the Younger. As angels of Amon Zeus, these Dragon Tooth Soldiers are fully aware of the purpose and details of this operation.

They all knew that in addition to carrying the secrets of many demons, the physical structure of the book was similar to that of an ordinary book and could be easily damaged.

So even without Pompey the Younger's order, they knew what to do - snatch the book intact with their hands.

Facing the Dragon Tooth Soldiers that rushed forward fiercely, Karin's hand was still stuck in place. Although Phaethon had just told her to "harness" the power of the devil, she knew nothing about magical powers - she understood. As an elf, she would have been able to read the mysteries of magic itself. But she's not entirely an elf, only one finger on her left hand comes from the elf itself. In this state, it was difficult for her to communicate with the superior beings with her elf talent.

The Dragon Tooth Soldiers were getting closer and closer, but she was still unable to move. Like pulling a carrot, she used her entire body to control her left hand, but still gained nothing.

Until the Dragon Tooth Soldier at the front stretched out his hand in order to snatch the forbidden code——
