Taking a deep breath, Tony forced himself to calm down.

This time when Tony returned to Rome, he only brought his personal guards and the First Legion of Odni directly under him. However, these two troops added together... less than 600 people. Even if he brought troops to support them now, it would not be of any use, right? After all, the troops were too few.

"Is it... that we have no choice but to withdraw the troops from the front line?" Tony muttered to himself with a frown, tapping the table lightly.

The Roman Empire no longer has any extra troops to give to Tony. If Tony wants to send troops, he can either bring his own guards and the First Legion of Odenis, or draw border troops from the north to defend the Anatolian Peninsula.

However, the border defense troops in the north cannot be withdrawn. Once the border defense troops in the north are withdrawn, the Germanic people will inevitably take the opportunity to move south to attack the Roman Empire.

But with just the few hundred soldiers in his hands... Tony had no way to resist the attack of the Parthian cavalry.

But if we withdraw troops from the front line to defend the city, how many should we have? If there are too many, the war on the front line will be tight, and if there are too few, the troops transferred back will definitely be like throwing meat buns at dogs and never come back.

So...what should I do?

"Brother..." Seeing his brother's anxious face, Nero, who had been sitting next to him without saying a word, suddenly said, "How about... I can lend you my personal guards."

"No need." As soon as Nero finished speaking, he saw Tony waving his hands and said, "No need, sister. You gave me all your guards, so..."

"It's okay, brother. Don't worry about my safety." Nero stood up, patted his undulating breasts and said, "I'm awesome!"

Hmm? Why does the tone of voice sound like Jay can't escape?

"Ahem, my sister's safety is one thing, but on the other hand..." Tony coughed lightly and said in an awkward tone: "Sister, your personal guards are only more than a thousand people. Counting the troops in my hands, there are less than two thousand people in total. With such a small number of people... Honestly speaking, they are useless."

"......That's right." Nero scratched his head awkwardly. What his brother said seemed to be right. His own guards plus the troops under his brother's command were still a long way from two thousand people. With such a small number of people, how could they compete with tens of thousands of cavalry?

"If Rosa were here, with his strength, he could have single-handedly assassinated Tiridates and won the war, right?" Nero sighed and suddenly said.

Hmm? Rosa?

Although he was a little unhappy that his elder sister suddenly mentioned Rosa's name, but... he seemed to have a solution!

"Sister, I'm going out for a while!" Tony clapped his hands vigorously and said to Nero happily.

Nero's words gave Tony a new idea.

I have been trapped in a misunderstanding!

Facing the enemy's army, Tony has always been thinking about how to use his own army to deal with the enemy's army, but he has never thought about... why not use special powers to deal with the enemy's army?

For example...heroic spirit!

This is the specialty of the Type-Moon world!

So... do I need to get a few more Heroic Spirits...

Cyprus was ruled out first.

As the ancestor of gods, when the name of Cyprus spread again in the Roman Empire, Cyprus was destined to be a strategic-level weapon, an indispensable weapon that could not be used. This was not because he was too strong, but because of his identity, the founder of Rome, Cyprus, the ancestor of gods. If we really talk about status... his status was even higher than Nero.

So Cyprus cannot move, and there is no way to move. But in addition to Cyprus, there is another hero in the city of Rome who temporarily belongs to the Roman Empire!

Cleopatra VII!

Although Caesar never personally conquered Parthia, and Egypt during the reign of Cleopatra VII never fought against Parthia, for Cleopatra VII, the Roman Empire was Caesar's Roman Empire, and Nero and Tony were Caesar's descendants.

Well, although there is a guy like Octavian who makes people feel a little annoyed.

It was for this reason that when Tony went to ask Cleopatra VII for help, she nodded in agreement without even thinking about it. Our Cleopatra was even willing to write a letter to Tony for her nominal descendant to bring more reinforcements to the Roman Empire.

In addition to Cleopatra VII and the reinforcements she was going to bring in, Tony also planned to find a few more backers, for example... Martha seemed like a good choice?

But...where is Martha now?

PS1: Thanks to "墨白_毒" for the two blades, thank you~

PS2: Because of some stupid guy, I have been forced to work as a bricklayer since the day before yesterday...

Tsk, didn’t I start a business in Changchun before? I came back at the beginning of the year, and the rent was not due at that time. I also had a friend who stayed in Changchun. As a result, the rent expired in the middle of this month, and he didn’t want to go home directly and wanted to go somewhere else, so he asked him to send his things to me, such as desktop computers, headphones, speakers and other small items. I said okay, you can send them.

In the end, this bastard not only sent me a desktop computer, but also a bunch of heavy books and the desks, chairs and benches that I had put in Changchun! There were six big boxes in total. My god, it cost more than 600 yuan for shipping. My house is on the seventh floor and there is no elevator! My shoulder still hurts until now... I feel a little better today, so I have to write at least two chapters first, goodbye.

Chapter 498: Does anyone want to taste the big sister’s iron fist?

Where is Martha now?

Tony didn't know, but Tony knew that at this moment, someone must know where Martha was.

In order to control public opinion in Rome, Tony secretly formed a team of mercenaries. This team was mainly responsible for guiding public opinion and searching for certain specific targets. In order to facilitate their work, Tony even gave them some items that could prove their identity, so that they could get in touch with officials in the empire and facilitate their work.

After several months of development, with Tony's tacit consent and the secret support of all officials in Rome who were loyal to Tony, if nothing else, at least any movement around Rome could be said to be known to Tony.

Fortunately, Martha didn't go far.

Under Tony's orders, the spy organization lurking in the city quickly found Martha's whereabouts.

After the Great Fire of Rome, Tony implemented a high-pressure policy against Christianity in the Roman Empire, especially in Rome. The two leading saints lost their lives, which caused a great blow to the Christians in Rome. Now Martha has to come forward to lead these believers in person.

Although Martha is also one of the Christian saints, her status is quite extraordinary. She is the kind of person who is high in position but not powerful. The biggest reason why she can become a saint is her martial arts skills. As for her contribution to Christianity... Of course there is, but it is not enough to make her a high-ranking Christian like St. Peter.

It was for this reason that Martha had stayed in Rome for the past few months.

After contacting Martha through a secret line lurking in Christianity, Tony invited Martha to his villa in the suburbs.

"Brother...what do you want to talk to me about?" Standing next to the balcony, Martha looked out the window with an indifferent face and her voice was a little cold.

"I..." Tony opened his mouth. He knew that Martha still had some opinions about him at this moment. For example, he ordered the violent suppression of Christianity. For Martha, a Christian, this was unforgivable.

But then again, Martha is a little confused now.

When she was in Riverwood Town, she treated Tony and Tita as her own brothers and sisters, or rather, as substitutes for her own brothers and sisters. But now, Tony was suppressing Christians by force, and from Martha's perspective, she didn't know who to speak for.

After all, Tony does have good reasons to suppress Christianity.

Therefore, Martha, who was standing in the middle, was in a very awkward situation at the moment. She was so embarrassed that she didn't know what expression to use to face Tony.

"Sister Martha." Tony sighed and lowered his head. "Now you should know why I attacked Christianity, right? You should also know, right? There were many Christians involved in the arson. Sister, don't forget that when I was engaged, it was the Christians who sent people to assassinate me in an attempt to disrupt the engagement ceremony."

After a surprise interrogation by Rosa, the assassins who were captured alive quickly confessed their identities. They were all from Christianity and were Christian assassins.

"This... I have no idea." Upon hearing the news, Martha subconsciously covered her mouth. She really didn't expect that the person who assassinated Tony would be Christian.

To be honest, Martha understood that Tony would be assassinated by Christians, but the problem was that she didn't know anything about it!

"Then...are you okay?" At this moment, Martha didn't want to pretend to be cool anymore. She turned around quickly and came to Tony anxiously. She looked him up and down carefully, and then touched and pinched him with some concern, wanting to see if Tony was injured.

"It's okay, sister." Seeing Martha's concerned expression, Tony coughed lightly. So... Martha still likes him, but... well, forget it, don't care about these details~

"Are you really okay?" After taking a closer look at Tony, Martha asked uncertainly.

"It's really okay!" Seeing that Martha stretched out her hands to untie the toga Tony was wearing, Tony subconsciously took a half step back and waved his hands quickly.

Ahem, what? I just want to undress the girl, but as for being undressed by the girl... it's better to forget it.

"Well... okay." Seeing Tony looking energetic and not injured, Martha nodded, took back her hand and asked, "So, what do you want from me?"

Hmm...listening to Martha's tone, Tony clearly realized that Martha seemed to...not hate him so much now?

Well, after tilting his head slightly, Tony thought for two seconds and then said, "Actually... I want to ask my sister for a favor."

……

"Oh... do you want me to join you in defeating the Parthian Empire?" Martha touched her chin and asked thoughtfully.

"Yes." Tony nodded.

"But... I really can't leave here." Martha sighed, her tone full of sincerity: "Brother, you told me before that you were assassinated at the engagement ceremony, right? I didn't know anything about this until you told me. Even when I looked through the church files a few days ago, there was no record of this."

At this point, Martha continued, "You have to know that at this moment, I am in charge of the Christian Church in Rome. But even I, the person in charge, don't know this. What does this mean? It means that I don't have complete control over the Christian Church in Rome. If I leave at this time, guess what these radical guys will do?"

"...I don't want to guess." Tony shook his head. Indeed, in recent times, under the leadership of Martha, the Christians in Rome have been acting very low-key, so low-key that Tony almost forgot that there was a time bomb in Rome.

But a time bomb is still a bomb. Now, because no one dares to oppose the iron fist of the big sister, everyone is quiet and not making trouble. But when the big sister is gone, will they still stay there quietly and not make trouble?

You are dreaming!

It would be strange if they didn't turn the city of Rome upside down!

"So, brother, you said... can I leave?" Martha shook her head gently and sighed.

"……All right."

If Martha cannot leave, then who is suitable to go with me to encircle and suppress Parthia at this moment?

Chapter 499 Atalanta and Hercules

After saying goodbye to Martha, Tony returned to the palace and before he had time to sit down, he heard a report from his personal guards outside the door, saying that someone outside the palace was looking for him.

"Looking for me?" Tony was stunned. Who is this? Why would they come to look for him?

Several of Rosa's men have already moved into the palace, and other familiar people are either in the palace or elsewhere. Those in Rome basically don't need to be notified... So... who is it that would ask to see him?

"Who is the other party?" Tony asked, standing up from his chair.

"Your Highness, there are two people on the other side. One of them is Atalanta whom we met before, and the other big guy with her... we have never seen him before." The guard knelt on one knee and said.

"Ta-meow?" Tony was stunned when he heard Atalanta's name, then he reacted randomly. That's right! Before, Atalanta brought Feiyangyang... Ugh, brought Katniss back to Mount Olympus, but now, this Katniss appeared in Rome. It was obvious that she escaped from Mount Olympus. So, now Mount Olympus sent gods or demigods to hunt her down again. Isn't this normal?

Okay, so now, here comes the question.

Who is the big guy with Ta Miao?

After tapping the table twice, Tony finally said to the guard, "You...go and invite these two in first."

Well, no matter who that big guy is, since he also came down from Mount Olympus, then... he must be a god if not a demigod.

Soon, under the leadership of this personal guard, a huge monster about two and a half meters tall followed behind Ta Miao and came to Tony's study.

"This is..." Looking at the guy with clear eyes in front of him, Tony subconsciously took a half step back and muttered, "If I'm not mistaken, this guy should be Hercules in Greek mythology, right?"

"Eh? You know?" Hearing Tony's mumbling, Ta Miao, who was originally about to greet him and introduce the big guy behind him, was stunned for a moment and asked with some confusion.

"Of course I know." Tony coughed and looked at Hercules' face that looked like a brick. Uncle B, who doesn't know him? A famous lolita control in the Type-Moon world, for Illya, he actually surpassed the legend of his twelve trials and resurrected for the thirteenth time... Although he was still trapped by the Heaven's Chain and killed by Gilgamesh.

Well, but... looking at the Hercules in front of me, although he has the physique of a Berserker, you can tell from his eyes that he is not the Berserker summoned by Illya in FSN. In other words, in this era, when the Age of Gods has ended but the Greek gods have not yet died, he... is just like in myths and legends, his life has gained eternity. He is not a Servant, and he should not even be a Heroic Spirit. He... is a living demigod!

If this is the case, then he should possess the four great treasures of "Twelve Trials", "Twelve Glories", "Shooting a Hundred Heads", and "Usurper of Sky Wind" at the same time. Of course, if Cu Chulainn had not been killed by Cefalu, Hercules might have had another "Spinning Assault Blue Lancer".

Hercules at this moment, Hercules in his prime, is simply like a BUG!

"Sister Ata, long time no see~" After taking a closer look at Hercules, Tony suddenly giggled and gave Ata Meow a big smile.

Where is Ta Miao~ Now the problem is much easier to solve~

People who are familiar with the Type-Moon world know that Tamiao loves children very much. Or rather, because she was abandoned by her parents and raised up by others, she hopes to repay this kindness to the children. Even further, although she does not regret it, if possible, she also hopes that she can be favored by children.

Tony is still young! Ahem, well, I'm talking about age. In terms of age, Tony is still half a child, so... ahem, Ta-Meow still cares about Tony's thoughts.

"Long time no see, little Tony~" He bravely walked up to Tony, reached out and gently touched his head, and said.

"Hmm~" He rubbed his eyes cooperatively, and Tony asked with an unsatisfied look on his face: "So, Sister Ata suddenly came to see me, what's the matter~"

"Ah, that's it." Ta Meow glanced at Hercules standing behind him, and then said to Tony: "Little Tony... remember Katniss? She's the one I brought back to Mount Olympus. She... escaped."

"So... you and Hercules are here to capture her?" Tony scratched his head and said, "Kainis... According to the information I have, she was in Rome before. She seemed to be planning to join forces with Cefalu, but Cefalu has regained her senses and seemed to have her own plans. Then Katniss parted ways with her, and now... her whereabouts are unknown."

"She's missing..." Ta Miao frowned. The Roman Empire was so big. If she was really missing, then... who knew where she was?

"In fact, she is not completely missing. As long as she is in the Roman Empire, I can find her... It's just that, Sister Atalanta, I don't have time to do this now." Tony looked at Atalanta with some embarrassment and said embarrassedly: "I'm very busy these days, so... I may not be able to help you."

"Eh... is that so?" Ta Miao was stunned. Was this considered a polite refusal? But without Tony's help, it would be like looking for a needle in a haystack to find someone in the entire Roman Empire.

"Well...how about letting little Tony do it? You just need to give me the information of your intelligence contact and I will contact him~" Ta Meow said with a frown.

"I'm afraid this won't work." Tony sighed and said, "Sister Ata may not know that the Roman Empire is currently at war with the Parthian Empire. Most of the country's resources, whether it's troops, intelligence, or food, are now concentrated on the front lines, so... we don't have much manpower to help you..."

"War..." Hearing Tony's answer, Atalanta remembered that when she came here last time, there was indeed a war going on in the Roman Empire, so... has that war not ended yet?

Well, think about it, isn't it normal for a war to last for two or three years?

"So now, who is going to win?" Ta Miao coughed lightly. Well, let's first determine who is going to win the war. If the Roman Empire is about to win, then it's not impossible for me to wait for a while.

"Ah... the situation is a bit complicated now, but generally speaking... the war between the two sides is currently in a stalemate." Tony smiled bitterly and said to Ta Meow.

PS1: Thanks to "old uncle" for the spicy noodles, thank you~

PS2: Yesterday was absolutely amazing.

Didn’t I owe over 100,000 yuan in debt after my business failed? Then a few of my college roommates who were close to me knew about this, but they also knew that I had an idea to make money in my head, with a stable return every month, but I didn’t do it because it would cost money, and I didn’t have the money.

So yesterday, two of my roommates asked me out for dinner to discuss the specific process. We initially decided to go to Jiefangbei, which is in the urban area of ​​Chongqing. Although it is a bit far from my home, at least I still have a car to go back even if we go back at night, right?

So I just took a coffee shop membership card and a bus card, plus my cell phone and my house keys and went out.
