Ming Dynasty, New Rome, and Infinite Divine Machine

The Lighthouse of Alexandria, the Bronze Statue of the Sun God in Rhodes, and the Great Pyramid of Giza were all selected. It also includes a wonder that was particularly impressive to the Greeks - the statue of Zeus at Olympia. It was the work of the sculptor Pheidias. Although the original was damaged, the Romans made a smaller copy and placed it in the Pantheon.

The original statue of Zeus was painted with gold leaf. The left hand holds the eagle staff of Zeus, and the right hand holds upside down the lightning falling from the sky.

Although the statue of the sun god in Rhodes is known for its huge sense of power, the statue of Zeus is even better carved. Different from the Colossus of Rhodes, which was exposed to the weather and was used as a lighthouse, the statue of Zeus was worshiped by the entire Greek world. Gold, gems, and ivory carved the base of the statue. The huge statue occupied the entire space of the temple, and the tip of the eagle staff extended to the dome. People who enter the temple look up at the holy face of Zeus and often say, "This statue looks like it is going to talk." There are also many people who hallucinate and hear "Zeus' laughter." What's more, he felt that the statue "looked like it was about to stand up" and walk outside the main hall.

But now, the statue really stood up.

Shangluo also saw it. The first thing you can see is the golden eagle staff. On the top of the golden scepter, the eagle soars into the clouds as Zeus rises, surpassing all the buildings in New Antioch. Even the Empire State Building cannot stand on an equal footing with the statue of Zeus.

He could also see the subtleties of the statue of Amon Zeus - compared to the statue of Zeus in Olympia, the Zeus here has double horns, which are the same as those on Alexander's head, and even his face is Alexander's.

The two corners alone are as tall as a building. The shadow of the statue even covered Manhattan and Central Park. The shadow of the golden eagle staff held high reaches the top of the Empire State Building.

Zeus looked past the hundreds of buildings, past the concrete forest of New Antioch, and looked directly at the Metropolitan Railway Station of New Antioch.

"Ho ho ho ho." It's like Santa Claus's laughter magnified countless times, or Mickey Mouse's laugh with a 2000-year-old voice. This laughter echoed throughout the whole world, like thunder.

【Wow! it is true! Amon Zeus ran out! What are you fighting over there? Alexander is dead, and now Amon Zeus has really escaped! How accurate are you! I asked you to beat Amon Zeus to death, but why did you beat him to death? 】

"I didn't know there would be such a big movement. But don't worry! Don't worry! As long as [Heaven and Earth are unified], everything will be fine! I said it! I said this!"

Shangluo declared in the name of the master of the interior scene that he felt that things were stable and improving, and there was no problem at all.

"Ho ho ho ho!" Zeus laughed again. He rested his eagle staff and raised the thunderbolt in his right hand. He had used this trick just now, but now it was magnified countless times - the second "sun" between heaven and earth climbed up in his hands. The blazing thunder light caused the colors between heaven and earth to jump between blue and purple, and the arrow of the thunder light pointed to the Metropolitan Subway Station and Shangluo.

The movements were incredibly agile, completely unlike what a giant statue standing between heaven and earth could do. By the time Shangluo reacted, the giant statue of Zeus had already made a throwing and catching motion.

"*Jinling Yayan*!" Shangluo subconsciously reached into his arms, wanting to open the map of mountains and rivers and let everyone hide in together. But when he reached for his chest, he could only touch the cold armor.

"Lie down!!!" Fu Yuanshan, who was next to him, said nothing, and led a group of royal guards to throw Shangluo to the ground, pressing him down layer by layer.

Suddenly, Zeus's sky thunder descended, and the crackling sky light illuminated everything into a deathly white color.

Thunder that shook everything followed, but Shangluo was too distracted to listen when he was dazzled by the light.

——When he regained his vision, the only sound left from the lightning strike was the echoing sound between heaven and earth.

"Wow! Boss, are you okay over there? I saw a big thunder!" Han Xingzhi's call came to his ears.

"Ah, it's okay, it's just that my ears are a little dazed and my eyes are a little dizzy."

"what?"

"No, my eyes are a bit blurry. Wait a minute. Senior Fu, are you okay?"

"It's okay." Fu Yuanshan turned over and pushed away the other Jin Yiwei who were stunned and yet to wake up. "His grandma, Jade Emperor welding is really exciting, right?"

Shaking his head, he looked around like Shangluo. But surprisingly, there was no lightning strike around.

【Ah ah ah! ] Apollonia exclaimed, [World Trade Center! Look! World Trade Center! 】

The two of them looked in the direction of the World Trade Center—Building 1 of the Twin World Trade Towers had just been directly hit by Zeus' lightning. From the lightning rod to the base, horrific scars spread across the entire building. The shell of the entire building was shattered into pieces. Dozens of fire points were smoldering up and down and were about to burst into flames.

"It's a lightning rod." Phaethon didn't know whether to be grateful or not. "Zeus's thunder and lightning are the power of nature, and natural thunder and lightning follow natural rules. There are skyscrapers everywhere in New Antioch. Every skyscraper There are lightning rods on them. When Zeus's lightning strikes, although it is aimed at you, the skyscrapers with lightning rods should be struck first."

[It turns out that these two groups of people are not very accurate. They can't cut anyone if they chop, and they can't chop anyone if they chop. 】

This situation also surprised Amon Zeus.

"Ho ho ho ho!" He laughed. After a brief hesitation, he raised his hand and fired another thunderbolt - the color of the sky and the earth changed again in his hand. The power did not diminish at all, but increased. The lightning struck towards where Shangluo was again, but this time it hit Building 2 of the World Trade Center.

This time the lightning was more "powerful" than last time. After the light and thunder paused, the structure of World Trade Center Tower 2 had been disintegrated. The whole building was covered with pieces of paper and powder falling down -

Not surprisingly, it collapsed.

While Building 1 was still burning, Building 2 collapsed in response to thunder. The entire main structure of the building was disintegrated into crumbs and collapsed straight from top to bottom.

"Ah" Shangluo looked at the collapsed Building 2 and the crumbling Building 1:

"Zeus struck the World Trade Center with lightning. I saw it today." He took out his mobile phone, took a photo, and was about to go back and send a message.

Chapter 852 Colossus

"Crack." He took a picture of the moment when the building collapsed, and now he also took a picture of the smoke and dust after the collapse.

[Wow, I took a picture too. 】

"What are you taking pictures of? Run!"

【run? Where to run now? 】

"Where are you?"

【In Central Park. Phaethon and I are both there. 】

"Stupid! Don't stand in an open place when there's thunder. Didn't your mother teach you that?"

[Is there still such a thing? So what should we do now? 】

"What should I do? Let me ask."

He dialed Zhang Xuanling's phone number——

"Hello? Senior Zhang, where have you been?"

Zhang Xuanling composed himself and connected the channel.

"Military communications require call signs. I've changed my track. If you don't call the call sign, I won't be able to react. Wait, I press the calculator. The calculator shows that it should be 29 minutes before we get to you. The gear of this airborne calculator It’s a bit wobbly and may not be accurate, but I will correct it visually. After all, New Antioch is easy to identify, just look at the terrain. I am above the Pacific Ocean, and below is Honolulu.”

"Then hurry up!"

"I said it won't be fast. You should know that. Isn't this common sense in Zhongguo?" As he spoke, his eyes were fixed on the gyroscope and space clock. When changing tracks, he needs to concentrate and change step by step according to the manual. If he gives a few seconds here, the orbit will be deflected by dozens of kilometers or even hundreds of kilometers.

After passing the point in hand, he grabbed the microphone and shouted to Shangluo: "The track is only so fast. If it goes any faster, it will change track. If I go back and come back for the second time, I can't find the attack window. What's wrong with you? What's going on? Is it urgent?”

"Zeus struck the World Trade Center with thunder! Wow! He's here again - rustle, rustle, rustle." The voice on the other end of the phone was drowned out by the noise.

"Hello? Are you okay? Hello?!"

After a few seconds, the signal is restored:

"I'm fine. It's just that my ears hurt. It's getting closer. The Empire State Building was also blown up! It's only a few hundred meters away from me."

"Then do you want me to drop the bomb directly when I arrive? My bomb dropping process actually starts when I reach the target."

"Then throw it away quickly, you can throw it away!"

"Let me take a look at the manual." Zhang Xuanling flipped through a few pages. "If the bomb is dropped for the first time, then it will not be considered for orbit. If the fuel for the return journey is also included, it will be about 10 minutes ahead of schedule. In other words, it is still possible It has to be 19 minutes. I will launch the Tiandi Datong before arriving, and the missile will fall with inertial guidance, but you have to detonate it yourself."

"Huh? Did you want me to detonate it?"

"Because the dragon ball as the fuse is in your hand. It was supposed to be delivered by the Dragon or the White Star, and then we met over New Antioch. Now that the dragon ball is in your hand, you can detonate it yourself."

"Um, what do I do?"

"It's very simple. You launch the Dragon Ball towards the falling [Taiyi Jinhua Device], and it will detonate naturally. The Dragon Ball is necessary, because without the Dragon Ball, the explosion effect should be similar to that of Zhongguo's technology nuclear weapons. That shouldn't be of any use to you."

"But...but there is a problem. The sky I see now is a false sky. The real sky is several layers above me."

"Huh? What do you mean?" Zhang Xuanling still didn't understand the relationship between floors, but he still made a suggestion: "Have you considered taking the elevator or something to go upstairs?"

"I just tried to go to the door but the whole city's power grid is down and the elevators are out of service right now."

"That won't work. You have to find a way to penetrate the 'floors' above you. The target you want to blow up is a god named Amon Zeus, right? If you don't use the Dragon Ball to trigger [Taiyi Jinhua· The power of nuclear weapons alone cannot kill him."

"Ah, that's right."

"All you have to do is send the Dragon Ball up here," Zhang Xuanling shouted. "As long as it explodes, I believe no matter which floor it's on, no matter how powerful it is, it will all be blown to pieces."

"Understood"

After hanging up the walkie-talkie, he quickly exchanged messages with the people next to him. Karin, who had just killed two Dragon Tooth Soldiers, was also standing next to her. She was still a little unfinished at first as she entered battle mode with her giant sword raised. But after a few thunderbolts from Zeus struck down, she also knew that this was no longer a place to stay for a long time.

"What should I do? What should I do?" Shangluo touched his forehead, "The dragon ball is in my hand. But I have to send the dragon ball up to destroy the Great Harmony of Heaven and Earth. He said that just launch the dragon ball up - but now I simply can't I don’t know how to send it.”

"Well, if that's the case, I have a suggestion." Karin asked in a low voice, "Is it just a matter of sending the dragon ball up?"

"Ah, yes, yes! Do you have a way? Do you have a way to launch the dragon ball into the sky?"

"You have used this method before. But there is a prerequisite. You have to submit evidence."

【exhibit? Aha! Of course I have it here! This time, I learned a lesson from adversity, and I asked Alexander to keep the contract! He died after signing the contract! 】

"Is this in line with the rules?"

[Of course it’s within the rules. According to Greek law, debts during lifetime should be repaid by the deceased. After Alexander was killed, his debts and Thebes, which had not yet been handed over, had been transferred to his first heir, his father Ammon Zeus. In other words, Amon Zeus has now violated the contract! So it can indeed be summoned! Wait a moment, Phaethon, prepare the Spear of the Sun and you can position it! 】

"Ah! I understand!" Phaethon's voice came from over there, "He signed it! Then we can summon that one directly!"

A few seconds after Apollonia hung up the phone:

boom--

A bell rang across heaven and earth, competing with the thunder of Zeus. It was the bell of the Lighthouse of Alexandria.

[The phlogiston circuit is injected and the spirit overwriting begins. 】

boom--

A bell rang and the sky began to rotate. The sky of Zhonggou falls to the west, and another piece of land rises from the east. But that is not a strange territory, it is the human world, the earth. Egypt to be precise, the city of Alexandria. The city of Alexandria is gradually rising from the horizon to the center of the zenith. The lighthouse of Alexandria hung high above their heads.

[Lighthouse system alpha beta version, loading. Version number 0.85. 】

[The phlogiston circuit is injected and the spirit overwriting begins. 】

The dust from the collapse of the World Trade Center slowly dissipated, and the majestic structure tore through the night. What appears from the zenith is the golden crystal of the Lighthouse of Alexandria and the entire upside-down earth. Just like the time at Lake Nemi, mechanical gears, levers, cycloidal wheels, and oscillators occupied the entire sky as before.

However, the target summon this time is not the Lighthouse of Alexandria, but the lighthouse system must be loaded first.

A bell rang and the sky began to rotate. The sky turned to the north of Alexandria and turned to Rhodes.

A giant shadow soared from Rhode Island, rising - up was down, down was up. The giant shadow soaring into the sky fell like a comet. The comet's light gradually became blazing, and gradually expanded to be comparable to the thunder of Zeus, the third sun.

Zeus stared into space until the giant thing fell into the sea before him, on the shores of New Antioch.

The impact of the heavy object falling to the ground shook the whole of New Antioch, stirring up smoke and huge waves. What stood up from the smoke and waves was the colossus of Rhodes Island's sun god with its right hand raised high.

The bronze sun god Helios, holding a torch high and carrying a big bow on his back, came for the signed contract and stood between Shangluo and the giant statue of Zeus.

The giant statues of Zeus and Helios stand between heaven and earth. The shallow waters of Hudson Bay can barely cover the feet of the two giant statues.

Chapter 853 Giant of Light

Anyway, let’s take a photo first in Shangluo. The scene of two giants confronting each other on the sea is not something you can see everywhere.

"So this is your father?" This colossus of the Sun God obviously looks like the incarnation of the Sun God.

"What my dad. This is the sun god statue of Rhodes Island - Marco Automaton. The real automaton, and the original automaton. You can call it [TALOS] - Talos.

"So he's not your father."

"Your father is the statue. This thing is a defense tower, the defense tower of Rhodes Island - but a legendary defense tower. We pulled it from the Heroes Parade and appeared in Jason and the Golden Fleece. In the story. This is the world's first automaton, the prototype of all automatons. The inspiration for making automatons comes from Talos."

"Why does this prototype look so powerful? Other automatons are so incompetent?"

Shangluo had seen other automatons. For example, the chef.

The chef is now buried in the ruins of the Empire State Building. But according to the law of smoke without harm, Shangluo thought he was fine.

But the power of the sky-holding giant in front of him was completely beyond Shangluo's knowledge. This thing "jumped" directly from another level of sky, leaping to this other level of inverted sky.

This can no longer be described as "awesome". This is simply something else entirely. Perhaps this is the power of the "prototype".

"It's not just the prototype, because the fundamental source of power is different." Phaethon explained, "The power of Talos comes from the blood of the god, and the sun god Helios directly shared the source of power with this statue. Others. The automaton is an artifact that imitates humans, while Talos is a divine artifact that imitates God, the Colossus of the Sun in Rhodes.”

Before he finished speaking, the colossus moved.

The light of the torch was more dazzling than the sun, and the colossus of light stood up. He accepted the call and came to deal with the villains identified by Helios. Even if the opponent is the King of Gods, his response is a classic punch of Greek fighting.

This punch is as classic as Alexander's move and is almost identical. The wise Amon Zeus saw through the moves of the bronze colossus, and blocked the punch of the colossus with his hand - but the white marble arm was blocked by the rusty bronze.

The same giant statue, the power of the stone statue and the bronze statue are not at the same level at all. Although Amon Zeus technically caught it, the huge difference in strength still caused him to be defeated by a punch. There was no wave of magic, no fireball or lightning. Talos punched Amon Zeus in the chest.

"Ho!" Amon Zeus was hit by a punch and suddenly took a few steps back. Talos's strength also exceeded his expectations.

He looked at his hand. The arm he used to block Talos just now even had cracks.
