Ming Dynasty and New Rome and Infinite Magic Machine

Chapter 34 The Spear of the Apollo
"Is there any need for him to talk to me?" Shang Luo asked back, "You have already taken control of the situation, and you didn't have to negotiate."

"The sun will witness everything in the world. Helios, the god of the oath, will never take it by force. Those immortal medicines were born in your hands, and they belong to you. To take things from your hands, you must go through your hands agree?"

"Then why did you kidnap me?"

"Because you have violated the laws of nature. Just like the sun rising in the east and setting in the west, everything in the world will come to an end, even the sun god is no exception. And you, you alchemists, have violated the lowest order of the world—you Will not die on an equal footing with everyone else. My father wants to know why."

"What about you?" Shang Luo asked him back, "Miss Phaethon. It seems that you are not a mortal either? As a transcendent, your own existence is an example of fairness being broken. When you say the phrase 'equal death' , what position do you stand on?"

"I once swore to the Styx River, the Great River of Styx. Once the world returns to its original state, everything we have withdrawn from the Great River of Styx will be returned with interest. Even the Sun God himself will sink into the Great River. The River Styx will be silent forever. In this world, there should be only one sun." She pointed upwards, "That is the only sun that should remain."

"Oh, then what are you going to do to me? Use your spear to kill my mouth?"

"Your time has not yet come." Phaethon replied, "You should go through your life smoothly like everyone else. This world has always belonged to human beings, to you, not to me. Therefore, we ask You cooperate with the experiment, let us find out the truth about Cathay's alchemy. If you cooperate with us, you can leave safely. The time to recover your extraordinary power can be postponed."

"Then what if I don't agree?"

"Well, good question." Phaethon stroked the white lion's head, "Have you heard the story of Icarus? The son of the great Daedalus, he once challenged the height of the sky with his waxy wings and the height of the sun. The light. So drowned, his waxy wings burned through by the sun's rays. So."

She slightly raised the corner of the golden spear in her hand: "This is the spear that once pierced Icarus. I don't mind wearing another one - of course, you will not die, I am not qualified to judge mortals, it is the one on the ground matter. But I can judge you as a transcendent."

"But am I really a transcendent?"

"Aren't you?" Phaethon froze for a moment.

"Would you like. What's that called? Give me a pulse?"

"Wait." Phaeton put the spear down again.

"Lolo, let me go." She patted the white lion's head, and the dozing white lion tilted his head, fell down on the floor and continued to sleep.

Stepping over the white lion, Phaeton stretched out his hand and pinched Shang Luo's wrist.

"." She was stunned again, "No? Why not at all? You Zhendan people obviously eat the magical radishes cultivated by alchemy every day, why don't you have a little bit of ignite in your blood?"

"Why do I feel like you're scolding me?"

"Sorry. Sorry." She took a few steps back to her original position, even her voice was only half of what she had just said, "I'm sorry I always thought you were a superhuman, that's why I treated you like that. Please forgive my rudeness. But!"

She raised her head: "I still hope that you can help us find out the source of alchemy. Otherwise, we will have to implement some coercive measures against your friend—you don't want to see his years of penance come to naught, do you?"

"Then has this situation changed from just now? Where is your respect for mortals?"

"But we are for... for the greater future of all mankind!"

"But what does that have to do with me? Not only do you want to kidnap me physically, but you also want to kidnap me morally? Has the Styx River allowed you to commit criminal crimes? Jin Yiwei knows to carry documents to enforce the law, your documents Woolen cloth?"

"This this."

[Mr. Shang Luo. ] The silent Helios finally spoke, 【Please forgive our offense.If you wish to leave, you can get off right now. 】

"My friend is in your hands, how can I leave alone?"

[I'm glad to see the radiance of humanity in both of you, and my strength has increased again.If you stay in the car, may I take it that you would like to do business with us? 】

"That's it."

[Then as long as you help us study the secrets of alchemy, I can not only let your friend go, but also help you realize a wish.Any wish is fine.Don't question my ability, I will credit Da Styx and put it on my account. 】

"Why do you have the same accent as Apollonia?"

[You Zhentan people often say what - not a family, do not enter a family.Apollonia agrees with me a lot of the time, but she's always too young.She didn't consider the problem from the perspective of the longest human being, nor was she ready to give everything for her mission, and she was not even as good as Phaethon in this regard.How about it, Mr. Shangluo, can you accept this condition? 】

"I can't decide by myself." Shang Luo replied, "I need to discuss it with my friends. After all, I have no right to hand over power that doesn't belong to me. I just happen to know the prescription of the elixir."

[Of course, of course, we can discuss.See you there then, I've got things to attend to.Phaethon, entertain our guests.Also deal with the tail behind you, you are being tracked. 】

"Tail?" Phaethon glanced at the rear window, his face suddenly changed.Pressing the button next to her, she opened the skylight, and used the white lion as a foot pad to probe out——

Several black cars followed far behind, keeping a distance of 150 meters.There are no signs on the car.

"It doesn't seem to have anything to do with me." She sat back to her original seat, "It's the creditors of the Mayans, people from United Fruit."

"They're in your way, don't you mean to run your spear through them?"

"I said that I would not use the Sun God's Spear against mortals. But it may not be necessary. My temper is not that good."

After he finished speaking, she picked up the walkie-talkie:
"Stop the convoy."

"But Miss Phaedon!" Palka's voice came from the other end of the intercom. "They are creditors! They are here to ask me about the sale of the hotel yesterday."

"Paying debts is a matter of course. Didn't you win money yesterday? Why didn't you pay it?"

"Because I promised Mr. Shangluo to donate the money. The money is not mine. As for what happened yesterday, I just sold my shares normally, and United Fruit has no right of first purchase." "I know Tsk, trouble." She hung up the walkie-talkie, "Fortunately, I'm always ready. Lolo, get up, there are some mortal affairs that need to be resolved by you." She patted the white lion's face.

"As for you, Mr. Shangluo, why did I suddenly find out that you and my lion have the same name. You wait here, and I will be right back. Please don't touch my spear, don't move it, it's a very dangerous magic tool , which is filled with powerful phlogiston that mortals cannot bear. If you move, I will definitely know."
