Simulating the Universe, Starting with Speedrunning Greece

However, these clowns did not realize at this moment that their threats and confidence in their own safety were completely unfounded.

It's really pitiful——

Ye has no intention of indulging these clowns.

The greatest lesson history has taught mankind is to never think that giving in or bowing your head can earn the respect and mercy of your enemies. They will only become more aggressive and retaliate more severely.

True strength is gained through fighting.

When the power you hold makes others truly afraid, terrified and scared, then they will know what honesty means.

When everyone followed all the way to the central square.

It was as if a magical force calmed everyone's emotions.

They knew that the Civilian Assembly, which had not been held for hundreds of years, was about to begin again.

This is a long-lost opportunity for people to exercise their rights and fight for their own happiness.

People quieted down, and the senators stopped struggling, wanting to see what this man, Lista Ye, was going to do.

At this moment, in full view of everyone, Ye, who was almost tacitly regarded as their civilian leader and leader, slowly walked to the statue of the twelve gods. He looked up at the faces of the gods.

Suddenly he took a deep breath, then raised his left hand and bowed to the statues.

Salute with your left hand to show your respect to God.

If you salute with your right hand, it is a military salute. In ancient Rome, when cavalrymen met on horseback, they would raise the visors on their heads. It is said that this was to show their faces to avoid being accidentally injured by the other side.

By the 11th century, most knights in European countries had taken off their visors, and the tradition of raising the visor was transformed into the hat-docking ceremony.

The right hand, which represents a military salute, is waved when declaring war, which is more or less blasphemous in front of many civilians in the central square of Rome.

At this time, Ye didn't think so much...

Sometimes, he would just have a flash of inspiration in his mind, and he didn't care about the specific etiquette of Rome, nor did he have the intention to abide by it.

It was just a subconscious action as if it came to mind.

And Lista's simple salute under the sun, although not standard, was extremely natural.

There is a hint of holiness in the elegance, as if the most pious saint is praying to God, asking for inner peace.

Of course - people don’t know that Listaye may have a god in his heart, but that god would probably only be himself.

People can pursue spiritual beliefs, seek inner peace, and give their illusory spirits a place to rest.

But this God should never exist in the material world, should not be a real thing, and should not refer to a specific powerful life or person.

In the eyes of the uninformed Roman citizens, the night at this time was so tall, just and sacred, and the natural posture bathed in sunlight, that movement made people's hearts and minds calm down.

No one would doubt Ye's devotion to the gods at this moment.

Such a righteous and kind person would definitely not be the ambitious person that the Senate said was blinded by greed and wanted to take advantage of them...

The people who were thinking this, suddenly heard the next moment -

"Everyone - before holding this meeting, please listen to me." Facing the statue, with his back to everyone, Ye suddenly raised his head and spoke loudly.

He took two deep breaths, then a faint smile appeared on his face. He slowly turned around and looked at the eager and confused faces.

All the Roman citizens were listening obediently, as if they were about to hear some sacred speech.

Ye: "I'm not sure how to put it. In fact, I'm not as good as Tiberius in terms of eloquence...

But these eyes can still see a lot, and now I just want to express what I see.

Perhaps these shallow insights can help you and make you more aware of the sacred and undeniable importance of our presence here and convening a civilian assembly here!"

Chapter 118: Swear an oath to the great God Romulus!

“I’ve never been a person of great faith, not at all.

But I admire such people. I don't have the courageous and fearless pioneering spirit of the great Roman ancestor Romulus.

My own strength is far from enough to protect this changed Rome, so we need more people to have the courage to stand up and walk with us.

If our great divine ancestor were here, I think he would probably tell you that the Rome here, the Rome of this era, is not the Rome he once loved and swore to defend.

I think he would say that Rome is now more prosperous, powerful and prosperous, but at the same time it is also cruel, cold and narrow-minded!! "

Every time Ye recited a word, his hoarse voice, as cold as swallowing a knife, resounded in everyone's heart, making people tremble at the same time -

That tangible, sharp gaze like a knife swept across the many Roman senators.

Every elder who was watched by him could not help but lower his head slightly, look away, and tremble slightly...

They felt that the last few words that Ye repeated in a heavier tone each time were as if they were describing them.

And they were the source of what made Rome so cruel and corrupt.

At this time, the elders were already discussing anxiously.

Some elders even shouted at Ye to shut up... and stop talking.

“Scaremongering… this is alarmist, our Rome is still bright, strong and republican.

The great god Romulus would never punish—"

"Do you dare to swear before the twelve gods and to our great ancestor Romulus that every word you say is true?

If you lie, you will be condemned to hell forever! ! "Ye suddenly took two steps forward and shouted at the other party.

He showed a majestic expression like a roaring lion, and a ferocious look like a hungry wolf.

When the elders heard the horrifying oath, they immediately shut up.

The Romans still believed that God existed, so they naturally did not dare to swear such a poisonous oath, not to mention that their great Roman ancestors were involved...

—Swear an oath to the man who founded Rome? No, no, no, they knew in their hearts that Rome was not worthy of it, and they did not have the face to say so.

How could they not know what Rome is like now?

"You...!" An elder pointed at Ye with his face flushed with excitement.

Ye Geng said loudly: "I know that the greatness of Rome in the mind of the great god Romulus is definitely greater than you can imagine.

With a broad vision and mind, everyone can express their opinions freely. ”

The elders tried to refute the speech -

But their voices, the voices of a group of people, could not completely cover up Ye's voice alone.

The civilians at the scene also became a little agitated.

"If he saw Rome today, he would definitely ask what happened to Rome...

In just a few decades, our civilians lost their husbands, fathers, and sons, and then their families, land, and freedom, all the foundations of their survival.

Let our free people gradually become slaves...

The soldiers and heroes who fought bravely on the front lines have lost hope and faith in the future. Our army no longer has morale...

The Roman army, which had once been invincible, was now unable to suppress even the small Spanish rebels or the slave rebellion.

Are they old?

Or was it because they were tired, because of the darkness of Rome and the lack of hope for the future, so they lost the will to fight?

I think the most urgent task is to awaken the soul and will of Rome.

Our army needs a new spirit to give birth to new life from decay.

And this - everything starts with letting them get the treatment they deserve!

Answer me, soldiers! Can you tolerate your free souls and the nobility in your hearts being tainted by so-called corrupt and dirty things? "

"cannot!!"

"cannot!!!"

"No!!!!" When loud and uniform roars rang out from countless directions in the central square of Rome.

Those were the voices of countless retired soldiers, even the Roman guards.

When the roar that shakes the air and the sky penetrates the clouds——

The moment this will was gathered, a terrifying force also rose.

Ye's pupils suddenly contracted, and his powerful perception once again sensed an astonishing invisible force gathering from the soldiers and even from the countless Roman citizens who were watching at this moment.

Finally, they gathered in the sky above the city of Rome, and suddenly the blessing of Apollo in the night body began to emit a faint glow...

Even the statue of Apollo behind Ye was faintly glowing with white light, but the light was so faint that no one noticed it.

And the next moment, the 'will of Rome' - seemed to have awakened.

Momentum actually exists. When the energy of countless life forces clashes, even the weakest individuals, when as numerous weak ones as stars gather together, will become incomparably huge and powerful.

It was not surprising that Ye, with his powerful five senses, could sense this change in momentum, but - he also felt something else.

It was not simply the momentum, but the strong voices of the people and the blessing of Apollo in his body that seemed to have stimulated the land and caused subtle changes.

So, the next moment——

A long-lost feeling arises...

Before the Plebeian Assembly, you delivered a speech in the central forum of Rome.

Countless Romans were touched and ashamed by your words, and their deepest emotions were stirred. They roared hysterically, expressing their inner unwillingness.

At this moment, there was only one voice and one common will left in everyone's mind.

Under the resonance of thoughts and the influence of the faint light of hope in your body, a subtle miracle occurs.

That was a miracle that should not have happened in this mysterious fading land.

Then--

In this land, the will of Rome awakened slightly.

You have been blessed by your native land, and the Roman Mother Earth has noticed you. Because your actions are causing Rome to regain its vitality and allowing the decaying land to sprout new buds, your power has received a new blessing bonus.

From now on, fighting on the land that was once the Roman Empire, your basic combat power will be multiplied several times, and the stronger the enemy you face, the greater the power bonus you will receive.

As long as your feet are still on the ground, you will never fall down and obtain "Eternal Roman Continuation EX". Your immortality will be corrected and strengthened on Roman land. This is a reward for you to continue the destiny of Rome.

The heel weakness is being corrected. If you remain active on Roman soil for a long time and make a (good) far-reaching impact, there is a certain chance that the heel weakness will be permanently corrected. 】

Chapter 119: If you are unworthy of your position, then step down, Lord Archon!!

?!!!grass!

Everything happened in an instant. After receiving the message from the black tower at the simulated universe transfer station, Ye was suddenly shocked.

Some people are confused...

A speech awakened the native Roman will bonus blessing?

What kind of miraculous luck is this? Is it Apollo's blessing that is causing trouble again? Pfft... Is it shining and radiating?

nb——!

It turns out that the land also has its own will, and a simple speech can awaken the will of the earth. In the past, Ye Gan would never have dared to imagine such a thing.

But now, because of Apollo’s blessing, a generous gift has fallen from the sky!

Hiss, the Sun God Saigao, he found himself somewhat in love with this great Lord of Light.

Of course - I just really like its brilliant power.

How could this be the God of Light? It must be the God of Miracles and Luck, right?

Please have more of this good chemical reaction.

Apollo - my hero! There are nights of pleasure, and admiration in my heart.

It turns out that God really exists!

Bathed in God's grace, at this time under the blessing of the will of the Roman land, the fighting power has been strengthened several times, and the breath of life has become vigorous. Suddenly, the breath on his body has become more oppressive.

At this moment, Ye suddenly felt that he seemed to be invincible in this godless age?
