Ming Dynasty and New Rome and Infinite Magic Machine

Chapter 720 Little Pompeo

After releasing the sympathetic shield, the submarine started the ordinary engine - Shangluo felt that this engine thing would only start at this time, and it would act in other ways at other times. So rather than an engine, the diesel engine is more like an auxiliary engine.

Driven by auxiliary engines, the submarine slowly docked at the new Antioch military port at a safe speed. Even though I visited unexpectedly late at night, there were many people standing on the pier. They were wearing various military uniforms, casual clothes, and the like. Those who were not wearing formal clothes had obviously just gathered here.

Pompeii the Younger was no exception. He was wearing a military uniform. The Roman military uniform was based on a hunting jacket and was a woolen jacket with two pockets on the chest. Instead of military ranks, the collar wears the double-headed eagle and SPQR logos. SPQR stands for "The Senate and the People of Rome". All senators wear the SPQR emblem, but only the consuls wear the double-headed eagle, as the double-headed eagle is the symbol of the Legion.

Although he is called Little Pompeo, the opponent looks at least one round older than him. Romans traditionally did not shave their heads. Everyone had to keep their hair long and manage it neatly. However, soldiers are an exception. Consuls also have military power. Consuls always need to remind others that they have "military power."

Little Pompeo also had no hair under his hat and no beard on his face, making him look at least 10 years younger than his actual age.

[Speaking of which, your senior brother doesn’t seem to have a beard either. 】

"It's probably a form of image building. Although he has reached the age where he should grow a beard, I think he actually doesn't want to portray himself as too mature. A mature person has to be responsible for everything, but he has never been formal except for court meetings. He attends any meeting and goes to court as frequently as Emperor Wanli. In his current state, he has maintained the image of a young man in the court and will not take the blame even if there are problems."

[Ah, your rules are really complicated. It was much more convenient for the Romans. If they didn't like it, they would bring their soldiers and horses to a tournament. 】

"Do you still have this habit? People will die in war."

Pompey the Younger asked in standard Sinian. Like other Romans, they learned Cathay as a tool so everyone could learn it. But respectful words other than tools are not within the scope of learning.

The two shook hands, and Shangluo asked, "But you don't seem to be surprised at all?"

"Oh, it's nothing. You can do whatever you want." It happened to be that he didn't know how to do it himself, so it saved trouble.

[The life of the barbarians is not life - this is what many Romans thought. After all, mysticism does not recognize their existence. Because leaving aside those barbarians, the angels of the Golden Age, the elves of the Silver Age, and the Shadowless Army of the Black Iron Age are no longer human. They have all been taken away. The only friends of the Romans are you. Well, although Colombia has some problems with the mainland, they are still very polite to Cathay. 】

"Logically speaking, it should be a surprise. There are too many strange things done in the mainland, so I don't find it strange. I even think it is better for the Cathayans to be the kings of Rome than the Romans. Because at least the Cathayans are alive. In our world, we don’t always have the big dream of getting into a box and dreaming of immortality.”

"Indeed." Little Pompeo over there came to pick him up in person in the middle of the night. This was already quite a favor. Because it could be heard from the conversation between the two sides on the ship that Pompeo seemed to be performing official duties and sealing off the restricted area.

"Nice to meet you. You are the Roman king chosen by the local people - oh, sorry, I have never learned the greetings of Cathay, I only know how to replace 'you' with 'you'. So what I said before may be a bit rude. "

He looked behind him and said: "Your Excellency Phaethon is also here. I heard that you were missing some time ago. It seems that you have obtained a new mission. I wonder if you have any special mission when you come together this time?"

"She came to check the 'Aotearoa'." Shangluo replied.

"That Night God bomb? It has been dismantled. Besides, you don't need to worry about this matter, King of Rome." "Let me explain." Marcus walked to the front, "Logically, I should be the one to talk to you. Conversation, so.”

"Your level is not high enough. I only speak to the King of Rome." Little Pompey did not mean to be polite at all. After all, only Shangluo was the guest, not him. He was just a "ferra Greek".

"Then, please listen to my additional opinion." Marcus insisted, "Our first priority is to find the stolen panda. But His Majesty the Roman King is also very important in Cathay, and he cannot We risk being threatened by the Night God bomb by operating here. So before we investigate the case, we must check whether the bomb is normal."

Hearing the key word "panda", Pompeo paused for a moment.

"Is it a panda?" He confirmed to Shangluo.

"Yeah, mostly for the pandas."

"If it's for the pandas, there's nothing wrong with it. But I don't mind if you take these Greeks with you, they can't even see a golden branch. We can assist you in your investigation throughout the entire process."

[Tsk, Latin natives, talking arrogantly, ridiculous. 】

"Um" Shangluo hesitated a little. This was a regional dispute among the Romans, and he really had no position to take care of it.

"King, nothing good can happen if you are with the Greeks. As long as you agree, Colombia will fully cooperate with your work."

"This is how we will handle this matter." Shangluo thought for a while, "After the emperor handed over this matter to me, my staff will handle it. Some of my staff are indeed sponsored by Constantinople. Greek operators, but they are now under my command."

"It turns out that's the case, I don't have any objection." He nodded, "If you need it, we can arrange for you to go to the site to investigate immediately. Of course, that one has indeed been demolished. If you don't believe it, I can accompany you myself. go."

"You have nothing else to do here?"

"Of course. But..." He looked at Shangluo, "Nothing is more important than pandas."

New Antioch was different from Constantinople in many ways. But one thing they have in common is that everyone in Rome drives six-wheeled vehicles. The six wheels are explosion-proof, and the explosion of a tire on any side will not affect the movement of the vehicle.

Sitting in a heavy carriage, the surrounding armor is thick enough to block the cannon of the helicopter overhead. However, in such a large car, the front compartment of the driver and co-pilot was very cramped, while the space in the back seat was enough for a lion to lie down in the middle - this was the same model as Phaethon's stretch sedan at the time, just to fit in. New Antioch road conditions without lengthening.
