Ming Dynasty and New Rome and Infinite Magic Machine

Chapter 1428 United Arab Emirates - Berlin
At six in the morning in Berlin, the largest city in the Empire, the morning news began to be broadcast on the radio. This was the beginning of the day for the citizens of the Empire.

This is not the capital of the Holy Roman Empire, but the capital of the Kingdom of Prussia. To distinguish it from the name "United Alemanni Emirate" imposed by the Roman Empire, they call themselves the Holy Roman Empire.

The man in black walked out of a hotel facing the street and stood nonchalantly next to the bus stop on the side of the road, staring at the street corner in front of him - his name was Hans, a name that would make a dozen people turn around if you called it on the streets of Berlin. He was particularly suitable for confidentiality work, and he was indeed employed by the Reich Security Bureau to monitor the strange room across the street.

Because no one had ever entered this room, he had checked it. He had been lying in ambush here for three days, and no one had come in or out during those three days. But just now, the light inside came on, as if someone had suddenly come out of the closet or the fireplace. This was the object that the Secret Service was investigating, and this was the true power of magic.

As one of the few institutions jointly established by Vienna and Berlin, the Reich Security Service was in charge because the common interests of the two parties outweighed their internal conflicts.

The Imperial Secret Service has the highest authority beyond the administrative system. It is responsible for monitoring the vast area from Szczecin on the Baltic Sea to Trieste on the Adriatic Sea, and maintaining the stability and tranquility of the Japanese Empire. For a long time, a secret organization called the Bone Group has frequently appeared in their field of vision. This secret organization has infiltrated all parts of the empire and stolen the remains of the dead, including many famous people, and even the remains of the prime minister are not spared.

The Secret Service speculated that the bone-hiding group collected these remains in order to perform some kind of summoning ritual to learn all the secrets of the empire and then subvert the rule of the empire. They highly suspected that these secret religious groups came from the British Golden Dawn Society, the Rosicrucian Society, or the French Freemasonry.

The entire Imperial Secret Service was on high alert to prevent Britain and France from using magic to subvert the Holy Roman Empire. With the support of the Vatican, the three archbishops of Cologne, Trier and Mainz jointly guided the work of the Imperial Secret Service, and the empire was as stable as Mount Tai.

Today, he is also protecting the peace of mankind and receiving a meager salary that is enough to feed himself.

But if he can really achieve results, his salary will double -

The strange room across the street might be a good opportunity for him to get a promotion and a raise, because just now, he saw two people walk out of it as if nothing had happened, look around for a while, and then buy a newspaper.

"Interesting." Fu Yuanshan raised his head from behind the newspaper. "It turns out that in their eyes, the Roman Empire does not exist."

"Really?" Han Xingzhi came closer. "I can only understand half of it. I can only understand half of the "Tai Su Wen Xuan Jing"."

This is a spell used by Xuan Xiu to memorize books. It can use sleep time to memorize the contents of the book. However, the "Tai Su Wen Xuan Jing" is very mysterious, and most practitioners can only use it to remember half of the content - not the first half or the second half, but half of the whole.

Han Xingzhi was quite savvy. He slept with a German textbook on his head on the way to Berlin, so he learned half of it. As for Fu Yuanshan, he was not a Xuan practitioner, he learned it by "looking at the air". He stood by the road for a while and observed the fluctuations of the air flow when the locals spoke. Words are pronounced through the vibration of the air, and as long as you understand the vibration frequency of the air, you can understand the language here.

After standing there for a while, his corpus was complete enough to read the newspaper. Because the words in the newspaper were all phonetic letters, he could understand the content of the newspaper by learning the pronunciation rules. This was faster and more solid than Han Xingzhi's learning.

"General Fu, how did you understand that? You tell me about airflow and stuff, but I still don't understand."

"When you reach my level, you will understand. The skills of mortals are nothing compared to the two of us."

"Will Shangluo do that?"

"Him? Has he ever properly practiced the Dao? Of course not - but that's normal, he is naturally strong. The truly strong don't need to practice. I haven't heard of Yuanshi Tianzun or Taishang Laojun practicing either, they were born with that state. Cultivation is just a way to gain cultivation, it doesn't mean you have to practice to gain it."

"Then if I can understand half of it, doesn't that mean I'm half as good as him?"

"It's good to be open-minded. Young people need to keep a good mood every day. Look at these Germans, they are so open-minded that they even think the Romans don't exist."

"Indeed." Although he could only understand half of it, Han Xingzhi could still get the general idea.

The newspaper introduced the affairs of the Holy Roman Empire, with the Kingdom of Prussia as the main focus. The Kingdom of Prussia was a country established by the Germans of the Saxony tribe and was one of the four major emirates in the United Arab Emirates.

Another chiefdom in its heyday was the Bavarian tribe, whose capital, Vienna, was the "residence" of the "Holy Roman Emperor". Today, the Holy Roman Empire is the training ground for the competition between Berlin and Vienna.

Yet from the outside, it looked like a tempest in a teacup.

"What the hell?" Han Xingzhi wondered, "How do they pretend that the outside world doesn't exist and only live in their own world? The Romans said that the Roman Empire relied on holy lies to protect itself. I think the holy lies of the Germans are even more powerful than those of the Romans."

"That's normal. Most people have never left the place where they were born, so they can't verify the truth around them. For example, do you believe that the earth is round?"

"The Earth is definitely round. The sky is like a chicken egg, the celestial bodies are round like bullets, and the Earth is like the yolk of a chicken, isolated in the middle. The sky is big and the Earth is small - I learned this in elementary school. And I have also seen it myself when I went to the space station."

"When you were in primary school and learned 'the sky is like a chicken egg, the earth is like a chicken yolk', was there a way to go to the space station to see it? Of course not. But if you didn't see it, how could you be sure that the earth is round?"

"I learned this in high school physics class. If you go to the seaside and look at the mast of a ship, you will see that the ship will gradually sink below the horizon."

"Have you really been to the seaside to see it? Let me assume that you really went to the seaside to see it - damn, those damn Romans can really sail straight to the moon along the horizon when the moon is not paying attention. Their ships don't sink at all on the horizon. What would you do if you saw this thing?"

"Ah, this... In our world, there are still many strange and supernatural things. Zibuyu, Zibuyu."

"At times like this, you should be glad that you are part of the weirdness, and then express sympathy to those who are kept in the dark, and don't reveal their dreams. For example, the kid standing across the street from us who has been looking over here."

"Where where?"

"That's it. He was nonchalantly looking at the large number of boys here - oh, he noticed I was looking at him and he ran away! Xiao Han, go and get him back."

"Okay." Although Han Xingzhi was not good at running, this was based on the standard of a Qigong practitioner. If it was based on the standards of ordinary people, he was really awesome.

Hans was running back desperately. Although this was not the behavior of a Secret Service employee, he had just exchanged glances with the man reading a newspaper across the street. He saw a pair of detached, angelic and cold eyes, like the cold sun.

Just one look and his soul was filled with fear, like beer meeting a drunkard or sausage meeting a glutton. He felt as if he would be eaten if he looked at it any longer.

A hand was extended in front of him in greeting.

The owner of this hand suddenly appeared in front of him, appearing abruptly in his sight and even interrupting his thoughts.

He was startled. He looked up suddenly and saw a kid shorter than him - that was one of the two targets. The kid was just behind him, but now he suddenly ran in front of him.

The man didn't know he was blocking the road, and he was still mumbling incoherently: "Hey! How long do I have to run in circles before I can find the bottom? How long will it take for you to find yourself?"

"what!"

He ran as fast as he could to escape.

The hand reached out in front of him, once again.

"Hey, how long do you have to run before you realize you're running in circles?"

The crazy mumbling appeared again, like a devil's sound piercing the ears.

This time, the hand was still grabbing his collar, but he got rid of it. In a hurry, he also saw the child's eyes. The eyes were as cold as a hunter's eyes to his prey, so terrifying that he himself felt it was absurd. He could not imagine that a person's brain could produce so much fear.

“Ahhhhhhhh!” He lost his mind and ran away wildly.

After he ran a few steps, the hand appeared in front of him for the third time, blocking his way.

"I've told you three times. How long do you have to run before you realize you're running in circles? Don't you understand me?"

"Ah?" I finally understood a little this time.

He turned around and saw the short child leaning against the wall, looking at him.

"Who are you?"

"I'm here to collect your people. Let's go." He stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers in front of Hans. Hans' consciousness was interrupted for a while. When his consciousness returned, he was already standing on the opposite side of the beginning.

Those angelic, ruthless eyes stood right before him.

"Your Excellency watched me for a long time on the roadside and then left without saying goodbye. Is this how you treat guests? Isn't this a bit rude?"

"You. You are the members of the Bone Hidden Group?"

"The Bone Hidden Group? Oh, you mean that road, right? We did come from the Bone Hidden Group's route. It seems like you are stopping them?"

"You are not from the Bone Storage Group, so what do you do? Oh, your faces. You are from the Aurora people."

"Oh yes, you finally figured it out. Actually, I called you here to ask you something that is not in the newspaper. It is very troublesome to arrest civilians and release them, but arresting someone like you is not a big deal - tell me, what do you think of Aurora?"

"It's a mysterious country on the other side of the world that is isolated from the outside world and has little communication with the rest of the world. It's shrouded in mystery."

"Huh?" Han Xingzhi was stunned for a moment. "Are we like this? Aren't they staying in the house and not going out?"

Fu Yuanshan shook his head: "How did you get this information?"

"That's what the textbooks and the news say. Is this considered common sense?"

Han Xingzhi was angry: "Has your common sense been tested by facts? Or do you just want your people to believe your news?"

"us."

"Forget it." Fu Yuanshan waved his hand, "Don't bother with this poor German. Let's get things done. I called you here because I have another question to ask."

Fu Yuanshan turned the newspaper over and said, "Tell me, what is this Ottoman Türkiye?"

"Ottoman Türkiye? Of course it's the country that destroyed the Eastern Roman Empire in 1453, and it's the country that occupies Istanbul now."

"So that's it?"

In orbit, the Lianshan, which was still maneuvering, received a message from Fu Yuanshan.

The content of the news shocked Shangluo: the UAE closed its doors and built an information cocoon for itself. In order to maintain their own stability, these Germans have their own explanations for everything in the outside world. They believe that the world is in the industrial revolution period, Prussia, France and England are the world's powers, and their industries are unparalleled.

They believe that the Roman Empire did not exist, that Italy was just a collection of scattered city-states, and that Constantinople was controlled by an inexplicable "Ottoman Empire," which added four towers to Hagia Sophia in the photo.

"Shangluo, they say Rome fell in 1453. Isn't that funny?" Fu Yuanshan shook his head and said, "Isn't Rome alive and well?"

"Hmm," Shang Luo pondered for a while, "Senior Fu, can you collect more of this information? Especially the scenes where they interact with the so-called 'Ottomans', collect more."

"You are interested in this? That's fine. However, it seems that their 'Secret Bureau' is monitoring the bone storage group. But under the manipulation of the Roman Catholic Church, they have the same misunderstanding about the bone storage group as 'tomb robbers'."

"Huh?" Phaethon beside him was stunned for a moment. "What tomb robbers? We signed a contract to provide medical services. It's stealing to take things without asking. We have come from afar to fulfill our promise to the client."

"Two narratives overlap." Shangluo said in a deep voice, "Interesting. It seems that they can indeed be self-consistent in their own world. I just don't know what they will think when we cross the Great Wall and start to sweep the houses."

[They treat Zhendan as if it doesn't exist. This is not okay, right? ]

"Yes." Shangluo replied, "I must break their news cocoon and make them recognize the power of the Heavenly Court. But I think their cocoon is quite thick. It looks like we need to dredge them in boiling water to make them come out on their own."
