Ming Dynasty and New Rome and Infinite Magic Machine

Chapter 1378 King of Europe

Victoria was confined to the spot. She was ready to "elope" on the spot for a while.

Lady Agatha remained in the room with her, and while she was out she had bought Victoria the ice cream from downstairs.

"Well, I just had the mint flavor, let's try the strawberry this time."

"Then why didn't you want it just now?"

"Shangluo ordered strawberry flavor just now, so we might end up with some awkward topics, like whether or not to share. Normally it wouldn't matter, but my father was watching from upstairs just now, so I should have been more reserved. But I didn't expect that Shangluo could control him."

"It's strange. Shang Tianjun is usually very passive, why is he so proactive this time?"

Victoria shook her head. "He didn't do it for me. He thought it was a political issue, so he took the initiative. So it didn't matter in the end."

"In other words, he fought for power?" she asked as an aunt, "Then are his emotions impure?"

"People are not bottled water, there is no need to force purity. Compared with purity, I value the result more - not to mention that even if it is really considered pure, its purity is actually quite high. Sometimes I prefer latte to pure milk. It has a unique flavor that you won't get tired of."

“Your outlook on life is really…”

"Ah, I think you middle-aged and elderly people are too radical. You always think you can pursue eternal love. After all, I don't believe that love can be eternal. Only with our common interests as a bond can we move back and forth between personal feelings and common interests. This is life. I am a very conservative person."

"I hope your father is as conservative as you. After all, he is as radical as I am."

"Huh? So my father is a radical?"

"If he had been a little more conservative, he wouldn't have allowed you to go on vacation, so now you have been offered the 'respect you have to accept'. It's not a bad thing, but I can only hope that they can get along well in the future."

In the elevator, Shangluo and Emperor Agasocles stood side by side. Not many people followed them down, and the only one who had the right to ride with them was Phaethon.

"By the way, Master Phaethon." Agathocles suddenly turned around and asked, "How are you doing in Zhendan?"

"Thank you for your concern. I am as full as an olive at the turn of summer and autumn."

"Well, I talked about this with your father, and the topic we talked about involved the same person. He told me that the man was a very responsible person. I agree with what your father said."

"My father? How is he doing?"

"Your father has moved his workplace to the Lighthouse of Alexandria. As all of us have entered the world of signs and symbols, your father has become exceptionally busy. It takes a lot of time just to drive the sun chariot across the sky every day. However, his work now begins and ends in the lighthouse, which can be considered part of the world order."

“I heard that this has become a famous tourist attraction.”

"Of course. After all, in the material world, it's not every day that you can see the sun god actually flying across the sky. So, are you interested in coming back and taking over this family business?"

[Don't talk like it's some kind of intangible cultural heritage. Can this be inherited casually? ]

"I think so," Agathocles replied, "In fact, I think Lady Apollonia can also come back to inherit the family business."

[No, no, no, just pretend I didn’t say anything. ]

"Ah, I have always wondered what attracted all of you to stay in Zhendan. Now even my daughter is unwilling to come back. Today I found out that this boy is so courageous. But Shangluo."

He looked at the person standing next to him and said, "I wonder if you have heard of a legend. According to the legend, there are ten suns in the sky. They ran out of the house because they wanted to play and never came back home."

"Isn't this a myth from our place?" "We also learned about the history of Aurora mythology in the Aurora language class. This myth left a deep impression on me. Sometimes I wonder - since the 10 suns usually take turns to go out, there must be a place that can accommodate 9 suns at the same time. You say, that place must be very hot, right?"

[Indeed, Yingtian’s summer is very hot. Someone’s home is even hotter, after all, it’s been three days in the sky.]

"So, Shangluo," Agathocles asked, "is your house big enough?"

It was big enough for Victoria. She loved it there.

"If this is her wish, I have no objection - I have never had any objection. I am just worried that you can't solve the problems facing Rome. But now, it is me who asks you for help. So."

He paused and the elevator door opened.

"Then, Shangluo, what you are about to see is a secret that only you, as the King of Rome, have the right to witness."

"So do the two of them need to avoid each other?"

"No Apollonia doesn't need to. Although Phaethon's confidentiality level is not high enough, he is related to this matter, so she can be present."

"Something about Atlantis? Why does it have something to do with me?"

"You'll find out later."

The group went to the basement of Alexandria, and Agathocles picked up a parchment scroll from the many X-shaped bookshelves.

"Don't worry about why such confidential information is placed in the public reading area. The parchment scrolls here are just a reading medium. What is presented on it depends on what you need. Shangluo, this is what you want to see, the covenant between us and Atlantis."

Shangluo took a glance.

Shangluo was shocked.

"So you formed an alliance because you have a common enemy."

The name of the great enemy was clearly written at the end of the parchment:

【Oberon, King of Europa】

"Wait. What is Europa? Isn't Europa Europe?"

"This Europa does not refer to Europe, but to the underworld in the West, because Euro means the West. There is a key figure involved - Oberon, the king of Europa. Of course, it can also refer to Europe now."

"Oberon? I think I know. Isn't he the Elf King?"

“He is indeed the king of the elves, but he is also the son of Caesar. Oberon is the elf born through magic between Caesar and the witch Morgan. Caesar originally wanted to rule the underworld through Oberon, but before his plan could be realized, Caesar died in an assassination.

"The angry Oberon and his wife, the Elf Queen Titania, became the eternal enemies of Rome and divided Europa. Oberon's son Merlin granted the authority of Britain to Arthur; Oberon himself divided Charles's Knight of Arms Ron of Bordeaux in Gaul; Oberon was also Alberich, the Lord of the Nibelungen Ring in the German mythology "The Nibelung".

"Oberon, who controlled the three territories of England, France, and Germany, believed that he should be the true Roman emperor, and he never gave up. From then on, the war began. The technological barbarians were his subjects in the Kingdom of Night and Mist [Europa]."

After saying this, Agathocles sighed helplessly: "So, you know why I am afraid of such a son of God."
