Ming Dynasty and New Rome and Infinite Magic Machine

Chapter 719 Slave Statue

[Hmm~~You performed well, I’ll give you a little bonus. 】

"Thank you for your grace!" Marcus immediately bowed in greeting, "The Lord God's gratification is our supreme glory."

[Ah ha ha ha~ tell me more. 】

"Would you like some more milkshake? I see you just ate a lot."

[Okay, okay. Wait until I finish changing my clothes and come out. ] With that said, Apollonia drove the Alchemist and left.

"Good guy" Shangluo looked at Marcus, then looked at the direction Apollonia left.
"Ms. Apollonia is like this." Marcus lowered his voice, "You need to coax her more. If she gets angry, big trouble will really happen."

"understand."

"As long as you understand, I think Lady Apollonia seems to be angry recently? Has she split from your divinity?"

"From a mystical perspective, it can indeed be understood this way."

"Eh??? You..."

"What kind of words are you talking about?"

It is much easier to light yourself up in the moonlight than in the sun. Because the lights don't need to compete with the sun, they just need to be brighter than the moon.

"I am giving you advice from the perspective of mysticism. As for how to operate and how to understand it, it is entirely based on your own knowledge. Therefore, please consider it carefully."

"I'm not joking." Marcus said sternly, "Ms. Apollonia is not an ordinary little girl, you should also know. Once you complete it independently, the consequences will be disastrous. So in every sense, please hurry up Merge with her.”

The black fish-like submarine surfaced intact. Marcus, who was wearing a heavy-duty extravehicular stealth suit, walked out of the control tower first, followed by a dozen others who also wore heavy-duty action suits. They were not empty-handed, but each carried a large shield. Then there were more than fifty other crew members, wearing close-fitting environmental pressure stealth suits with submachine guns hanging on their waists. Everyone was either wearing a helmet or a mask, and golden lights flickered on them. They all ignited phlogiston, giving themselves weight so that they could move normally.

"I'll remember that."

Shangluo and Phaethon came out in the penultimate group. To look less obtrusive, they also wore breathing masks—their masks illuminated not by the light of phlogiston but by the skyscrapers of New Antioch.

"Please. Your Majesty the King of Rome." He looked at Shangluo, "Although this King of Rome is mystical, you do not rule us in the world. But someone must be the king. If you must choose someone, you must Not bad. I would gladly accept you as king of Rome in this world as well."

"I see that Lady Apollonia is pursuing her own independence. Please stop her from all aspects. It is recommended that you establish a connection with Lady Apollonia as soon as possible and complete the perfection of divinity again."

Just like what he had seen in the periscope, the concrete forest of New Antioch appeared in front of him. The skyscrapers with all the lights illuminated the night sky like daylight, and even the moon was eclipsed. Only in the middle of the Hudson River could you look up and see the clear moonlight.

But there was also another light coming from not far away—it was the island known as the Forbidden Zone. The lighthouse on the island emits a blazing light. The lighthouse does not flicker like an ordinary lighthouse, but searchlights are lit in all directions, as if to illuminate all the darkness around it.

"The reflection of the Black Iron Age has appeared again." Marcus murmured, "No wonder there is martial law here tonight."

"Reflection? What is it?" Shangluo asked. "It's very close here. You can see for yourself. Look at the water and the reflection of the water near the restricted area."

Shangluo looked at the place pointed by Marcus——

The light of the lighthouse was reflected on the calm water. But under the light, if you look closely, you can vaguely see an outline. A blue-grey one standing on a pedestal, holding a torch and a stone slab, wearing seven rays of light on his head, with statues of broken shackles piled at his feet.

"statue of Liberty???"

"You saw it, too. The slave statue."

"How come it's here???"

"It's just a reflection. Sometimes, mirrors are more honest than people. No matter how we hide it, the mirror honestly tells us that time is coming. However, basic work still needs to be done. We have designated this island as a restricted area , a huge lighthouse was built on it. Because the reflection will glow by itself, it is very conspicuous in a dark environment and needs brighter light to cover it. But recently."

He hesitated for a moment: "I don't know if you have noticed that the skyscrapers reflected in the water are also a little different - the difference is very small, but we have tried our best. We can't repair the statue of the slave, but it is almost the same. The building can still be repaired. Even if someone occasionally spots the image in the water, we can shut them up immediately."

"You guys have worked really hard."

"Maybe this is the price of strength." He looked at his hands, "After dying once, I will never die again. Although I need to be infused with phlogiston to feel the world again, I can easily break through now The original upper limit. This phlogiston body is more powerful than ever. Although it is just a mirror, this power is real."

"Will you always follow me?"

"Of course." Marcus nodded, "Although I haven't had time to say it yet, the entire ship is now assigned to you, the King of Rome. This is the rule of Rome. The consul can command the legion. You are more mysterious than the consul. Higher, you should also have your own legion. Our rule is that once assigned, it is permanently assigned. This ship will always be at your disposal, and the Senate no longer has the right to mobilize us."

"Ah, so you will come back to the capital with me, right? Then where do you usually live?"

"Just about enough room for us to put the snorkel out."

"Water glass?"

"Well, it's a snorkel, not a straw. There are so many of us who can't hold a straw and suck out the phlogiston outside."

"What about a water tank?"

"That's okay, that's okay. Anyway, I don't have any objections. You don't have to take us too seriously, just treat it as a potted plant. We will have our own fun in the ship, and we will play the board game "Heroes Parade" to pass the time. Time. You don’t need anything else, just bask in the sun like a potted plant. If you need us, you can call us out as long as there is water - because this is a ship after all, and you also saw that we ran aground last time Looks like it."

"That's not a problem. We have quite a lot of water."

"In addition," he suggested, "for your safety, please stand here." He opened his shield and motioned Shangluo to stand in the middle, "We have an obligation to protect your safety. So please stand here. ——We can’t be beaten to death. As long as we can’t be beaten to death, you can’t die either. It’s just that safe.”
