Ming Dynasty and New Rome and Infinite Magic Machine

Chapter 1416 Xu Fu's Business

"Hey..."

Victoria was suddenly at a loss. This was the first time someone had pursued her so fiercely. Although the other party was not pursuing her as an individual, but the power she represented, it still frightened her.

She stood behind Shangluo.

"You can't lose to her..."

"Don't worry, there's no way I'll lose."

This match is fundamentally impossible to lose, because the victory or defeat will be judged by Victoria. As long as Victoria does not want Shangluo to lose, this match cannot be lost.

"Ahem," Victoria said in a deep voice, "Sir Azais, we don't actually need to do this. You are testing my conscience."

"I believe that your conscience is as golden as gold and is worthy of my trust."

“Ahhh! What should I do with you? This person is the most, oh no, second, oh no, third important person to me.”

The first two were of course his father and Lady Agatha. Victoria's mother was no longer with her. Apart from the two of them, she had a good relationship with Phaethon and was one of her few acquaintances with Apollonia. But given the nature of the [Palaiologos-Isaurian] family that valued love over friendship, after she met Shangluo, she had already pushed these two people down one notch.

Azaris took a step forward: "Then let me be the most important person to you!"

"Why do you sea kings talk like this? Shangluo never told me this."

"Ah? Is this what you want to say?" Shangluo was also stunned for a moment, "Sorry, I have never had such an experience before."

"Hey, it's normal for sea kings to say these things. Don't say it, I prefer you to be quieter. Besides, it's a good thing that you don't know. If you knew everything, you wouldn't be like this now."

——Apollonia suddenly said, "Ah Phaethon, what do you think? Victoria is jumping around in our restricted area."

Phaethon shook his head: "I can't get angry at all. It's just like elementary school students in love."

[I second this. The guys on the opposite side are similar. They are just like three elementary school students.]

Shangluo said helplessly: "You two, please don't frame me in this. I didn't do anything."

"It's because you didn't do anything that you acted like an elementary school student." Phaethon shook his head. "Never mind. Then I'll tell you what adults should do now - present gifts. Sir Azaris, what makes you so confident that you can present a gift that Victoria can't refuse?"

"Your Majesty Victoria." Azaris bowed slightly, "Please allow me to ask you - do you miss your mother?"

"???"

【? ? ? 】

Everyone, including Shangluo, was stunned.

"Wait." Shang Luo said, "Can you revive Victoria's mother?" "Of course, I can do it. In fact, you may not know that we have already made an agreement with His Majesty Agathocles. For details, you can ask the Bone Storage Group."

"Ah!" Phaethon suddenly remembered, "Now, this is a very strange thing."

"You took over Victoria's mother?"

"No, quite the opposite. Victoria's mother was not taken over by us, and that's the strangest thing. Logically, a high-ranking royal family like this would definitely be valued by the Bone Storage Group and receive special treatment. However, things were completely different from what we expected. Her Majesty the Queen did not accept our posthumous care at all - but I was not the person in charge of the Bone Storage Group at the time, so I don't know the specific details."

"So you know?" Shangluo looked at Azaris who was standing opposite him.

"That's right. At that time, His Majesty Agathocles did not let the deceased queen be cared for by the Bone Storage Group, but entrusted us to send her to the Palace of Eternal Life. I think you may not know that this is a cooperation we reached with the pharmacist."

"Are you referring to the Hall of Eternal Life?" If it was somewhere else, Shangluo might have shrugged off her statement. But he had indeed been to the Hall of Eternal Life, and there were indeed a large number of old widows there. He had even met Taira no Kiyomori there, a warlord who had business ties with Xu Fu himself.

[Xu Fu's business scope is not small. How come he even accepted this order? ]

This news was unexpected, but also reasonable. After all, Xu Fu's business had always been good and quite unique.

After all, not everyone is willing to believe in the Romans' cyber immortality. Because no one knows whether Cybernetics can really resurrect the dead and send them in - now there are indeed many people who have entered Cybernetics after death, but they are usually not far from death.

Those who have been dead for a long time are still gradually recovering.

The situation is good and bad. Those who have died within 42 days and received terminal medical treatment from the Bone Collection Group can indeed go to Cybertronia smoothly. But those who have died more long ago need more thorough protection. As time goes by, the probability of resurrection failure also increases exponentially.

In fact, those that have lasted for more than 6 months have still not entered the feasibility study scope, because three months is already too long.

Victoria's mother died more than a decade ago. If she wants to schedule an appointment there, she may not see any results even if she studies for a long time.

To some extent, the choice here is correct. The Hall of Eternal Life preserves many souls that do not want to die, which seems to be much more effective than the cold storage of the Bone Storage Group - but whether they can be brought back to Cybertronia is another matter.

But if it was an ordinary person, it would be fine. The one who made this decision was not someone else, but the Roman emperor at that time. The Roman emperor did not choose Rome's own technology, but chose to extradite through Atlantis. This was the greatest distrust of the Roman route.

If the Roman emperor was unwilling to entrust even his own relatives to the Bone Collection Group, how would others view the Bone Collection Group's business? If he really made it public, the Bone Collection Group's business line would immediately have an irreparable loophole.

This is why everyone present only knew the whereabouts of Victoria's mother now.

"This..." Shangluo pressed his forehead, "Should I admit defeat?"

If it was an ordinary gift, he could certainly refuse it together with Victoria. But now Azaris was not asking for a gift, but Victoria's mother.

"You should admit defeat," Azaris said. "The gift I can offer you is something you can never offer. No matter what, you are no match for Victoria's mother."
