Ming Dynasty and New Rome and Infinite Magic Machine

Chapter 1403 Lot
The negotiations between Shangluo and Atlas went surprisingly smoothly - although this was mainly because Atlantis had an ancient contract of mutual assistance with the Roman Empire. However, it was also out of practical needs.

After all, after the Roman Empire disappeared, if the vacant position was not to be occupied by technological barbarians, it had to be filled by another civilization.

Atlantis was a shadow empire that existed under the Roman Empire, and the ten lords were also shadow lords. When the real body faded away, if the shadow did not do something, then the shadow would inevitably leave this world with the real body.

Shangluo needs to cooperate with them. For Atlas, this is even more about the fate of Atlantis.

"You seem to have something else to say?" Shangluo asked.

He saw that Atlas seemed to be hesitant to speak. After all, as the ruler of a country, it was a bit strange for him to obey all Shangluo's words. After the preliminary cooperation matters were finalized, he planned to ask Atlas for clarification.

But Atlas didn't speak in the end.

"So, Lord King of Rome, where will you go next?"

"I still have to solve our own problems right now. So I will return to the space station as soon as possible and start military operations on the moon. I will take the letter you gave me with me. If the Atlantis defenders on the moon listen to my advice, then we will make peace. If they don't listen to my advice, then I will have to clean up the surface of the moon."

"Then I wonder if you can go to Rhodes on your way back?"

"So you have something to ask, right? Okay, I like dealing with people who tell riddles. Because you are telling me riddles, it means you have something to ask of me but you are too embarrassed to ask, right? But decryption is an additional fee."

Atlas nodded and said nothing more. Shangluo had his conch horn blown to end the ceremony, and they retreated back to the sea.

"You really need to go to Rhodes."

"Why, you wouldn't be happy for me to come to your house?"

"There's always that look when the room is messy and someone suddenly bumps into it."

"Isn't your mother taking care of your home?"

"It's over! This is totally unexplainable! I already said it wasn't my stepmother, it was the landlord!"

[It's not you who mentioned it first that made him think too much.]

"Anyway, Shangluo, please don't mention me. Just go and see her and come back quickly."

“Your family relationships are really complicated.”

"I already told you that you're not my stepmother!"

"Well, so this is the home you and your stepmother live in?"

In the distance, Rhodes appeared on the horizon. After the intense bombing, Phaethon had stopped talking. It was only a few hours before the horn of Poseidon was blown.

After all, the Aegean Sea is so big, Rhodes is in the east and Athens is in the west, and it is indeed only a few hours away.

The plane they took was assisted by the Athenian army, so it was slower. If they had taken Ninghe from the beginning, today's operation would have been much faster.

It was still dark when the plane landed at the airport in Rhodes.

"Then, let's stop here." Phaethon, who was flying the plane, took off the headset that was used to communicate with the air traffic controller. "I can't set foot on the land of Rhodes. So, I'll wait for you to come back on the plane."

"Can I ask what would happen if you actually stepped on it?" "No."

"Well, see you later then."

After opening the cabin door, Shangluo stepped onto the land of Rhodes - a place that was more prosperous than its size. Shangluo saw it from the plane. The island was like a circuit board, with a huge number of modern facilities piled up on a small area. There was almost no open space on the island, and everything in sight was filled with buildings.

[Because Rhodes is the location of the bone storage group. In fact, most of these buildings on the island are frozen storage rooms. ]

“Huh? So skyscrapers are.”

[Yes, it is the Skyscraper. In the past, before the lighthouse was built, only such expensive death rescue services could preserve the body for future resurrection. Now the island is slowly being vacated, and it is planned to send all to Cybertron for resurrection according to the service level. ]

"So where is Lot?"

[I have contacted her in advance. She is in the reception room at the airport. Because you requested a quick chat, she came here first. Even if we meet today, we will leave after the chat.]

"She's quite a nice person."

After meeting Lot in person, Shangluo's evaluation remained unchanged.

The air is filled with the scent of Rhodes perfume. The top note is the morning dew brought by herbal spices, the middle note is the tough and dry smell of cedar and frankincense, and the base note is a mixture of patchouli and sandalwood, which is astringent and calm.

"Welcome to Rhodes." She handed Shangluo her business card - Executive Director of the Bone Zang Group: Rhodes Poseidonia Poseidon.

After a brief greeting, Luo De got straight to the point and asked:

"Then my brother must have already made an appointment for Atlas."

"Ah?" Shangluo was a little surprised, "He didn't say that."

"Then he is still avoiding it. But he has asked you to come to me, that I may tell you all—you all know that Rome is going to fall, right?"

Needless to say, Victoria and Zhu Ling also knew about this a long time ago.

"We are still Romans after all. If the Roman Empire falls, Atlantis will lose its personnel. Therefore, we want to discuss with Zhendan whether the authority of the God of the Sea can be entrusted to Zhendan."

"Ah," Shangluo understood, "So, you want someone to inherit Atlantis?"

"We hope that someone can receive the territory of Atlantis and become the new Lord of the Ten Directions. With Rome falling and heading for extinction, this is the only thing we can do. I wonder if the King of Rome has anyone to recommend."

"So you want to solve the problem by taking over Atlantis as well?"

"We can only follow Rome's decision. This is the reality that we will eventually face decline. So as long as you find the right twins, you can succeed as the Lord of Atlantis. But please do it as soon as possible. Atlas is in danger now."

"Hmm?" Shang Luo asked, "What happened to him? Did he offend anyone?"

"No. He is very ill. You may not be able to see it, but Atlas is running out of time. Once he withdraws from the competition, his twins will also leave the throne. At that time, we must choose new twins to receive the power of Poseidon. If he doesn't want to face this, you will have to face it. Please, this is the end of Atlantis, and we are not ready."
