When the smoke gradually dissipated, the stunned Bai Feng finally put down the cigarette in his hand and prepared to go back and close the computer. Bai Feng, who turned around, was shocked by the incredible scene in front of him, his computer screen was actually glowing! And it's a red glow that is the same color as blood!
In this strange red light, there are still many things moving; Bai Feng slowly walked to his desk, he wanted to see what happened to his computer, it actually emitted such a terrifying red light!
Five meters away from his desk, Bai Feng finally saw his computer screen clearly; It turned out that this red light turned out to be the red screen of the Roman Total War, and those shaking things were also the various factions fighting in the Roman Total War!
"Didn't I already uninstall the game? Could it be that I have some virus in my computer that is crashing the uninstalled Total War in Rome? Bai Feng, who was confused, couldn't help but think so.
However, what happened in the next second almost scared Bai Feng to jump. I saw that the computer screen suddenly shook, and then an unfamiliar male voice spoke in the room: "Bai Feng, you think too much; The computer didn't have a virus, and it didn't freeze, but I was just opening a virtual world. “
Listening to the unfamiliar voice that suddenly sounded, Bai Feng suddenly became vigilant and asked loudly into the air around him, "Who are you?" Why are you pretending to be a ghost? What do you want? Hurry out and get out! "Hahahaha, you kid; Don't you usually read those fantasy time-traveling novels all the time? Why, don't you expect this kind of thing to happen to yourself? As soon as Bai Feng's words fell, this voice spoke with ridicule and ridicule again.
Bai Feng was immediately not calm when he heard this, and retorted: "A novel is a novel, your brain is bad and you take fiction as reality!" Tell me, who the hell are you? What do you want to do? After Bai Feng finished speaking, he didn't hear this voice and continued to speak, but saw that the computer screen suddenly began to shake violently again; And, not only the computer screen, but now even the entire desk is shaking violently.
Just as Bai Feng watched the computer and desk carefully retreat step by step, the computer screen suddenly flashed with a burst of red light; Moreover, this time the red light became brighter and brighter, and all of a sudden, Bai Feng, who had not yet reacted, was swallowed into this red light.
Bai Feng, who entered the red light, found himself suddenly entering a very majestic city from his bedroom. Rows of buildings, large and small Colosseums, and a huge city square, as well as tens of thousands of people coming and going, and even a few patrolling cavalry roared past; All of this adds up to a magnificent and chaotic megacity!
Turning his head, Bai Feng saw a group of soldiers hugging an old man in a purple robe walking towards the giant square in the middle; Bai Feng didn't know what these people were going to do, but he just felt that these people, especially the soldiers, were very familiar to him.
Suddenly, Bai Feng remembered; Wasn't the formation and equipment of these soldiers the standard army of the Roman faction in the total Roman war - the Roman heavy infantry? Could it be that this is the Roman Total War? Just as Bai Feng remembered, a white-haired old man in a red robe appeared out of thin air behind Bai Feng; The red-robed old man spoke: "Yes, this is the world of what you call the total war of Rome, and this city is Rome. “
Hearing someone behind him, Bai Feng immediately turned around and asked the red-robed old man, "Who are you?" How did you get me here? What exactly do you want to do? ”
After the red-robed old man heard Bai Feng's third question, he didn't say anything, just smiled slightly, took a step forward and stood side by side with Bai Feng; Then, he said slowly: "I don't have a name, you can call me Lao Luo if you like; I didn't get you in, I just sucked your spirit into the world, and your body is still in your bedroom. ”
Before the red-robed old man's words were finished, Bai Feng shouted loudly, "What? My mind and body are separated? Am I not dead, then? What the hell have you done to me? ”
Looking at Bai Feng, who was obviously in a state of excitement after interrupting his words, the red-robed old man who called himself Lao Luo waved his hand, and a dotted line blocked Bai Feng's mouth, and Bai Feng immediately couldn't say a word.
Lao Luo faced Rome and said solemnly to Bai Feng, who was constantly struggling: "Don't worry, I didn't do anything to you." The reason I brought you here is to make a deal with you. I can help you fulfill your long-held wish to become a great general in an era of cold weapons, where you can lead your troops into battle, expand your country, and even build your own empire. However, you must promise me to do one thing for me after you have fulfilled your wish. Of course, you can also refuse me, I will find another person to help me, I will not force you. “
After speaking, Lao Luo waved his hand to unlock Bai Feng's ban. Bai Feng, who had regained his freedom, didn't say anything, just thought about it, and then asked, "If I choose to help you, does it mean that I have to leave my current life?" What about my family, my parents? Why did you choose me? Also, what do you need me to do if you're so good? After saying his doubts in one breath, Bai Feng looked at Lao Luo quietly, waiting for Lao Luo to give him a clear answer.
In the face of Bai Feng's aggressive questioning, Lao Luo just sighed; Then, he replied unequivocally: "First of all, your departure will not disturb your normal life, no matter how long you exist in this Roman world, it will only be a matter of moments for your world, which is what you call the different speed of time." Second, the reason why I chose you is because you have always loved the era of cold weapons, loved the life of this golden iron horse, and have persisted for many years; And all miracles require passion and perseverance to create. Thirdly, I can't say what I need your help from now, because I don't know if you can help me if you choose to trade and really unify the Roman world; That's when you really have the qualifications to help me. Moreover, this favor is really not difficult for you, you are just helping me prove something with your hobbies and passions. How, now that you know everything, can you make a choice? ”
For Bai Feng, he was very satisfied with Lao Luo's explanation, because his current state completely proved Lao Luo's ability, he didn't have to deceive himself, and he didn't have the value of letting Lao Luo use it; Moreover, I really want to live a life of Jin Ge Iron Horse and Commanding Heroes. Therefore, Bai Feng is also very willing to make this transaction; However, he still has one of the biggest questions that Lao Luo must answer.
"Say, who are you? This is the only question I have right now, and as long as you can answer it, we'll trade right away. After speaking, Bai Feng stared directly into Lao Luo's eyes and watched how Lao Luo answered himself.
To Bai Feng's surprise, Lao Luo didn't mean to be a little surprised at all, as if he had expected Bai Feng to ask such a question, and replied very calmly: "You don't understand who I said, in the words of your world, I am a god." It's just that people like me are not supreme, let alone unique; That's all. ”
Hearing Lao Luo's answer, Bai Feng said with a smile: "I guessed that you would say that; Okay, the deal is closed. So tell me, how do I get into the Roman world, how do I unify the Roman world? ”
Lao Luo shook his head and said to Bai Feng: "I don't know how to unify the Roman world, that's what you should do." As for how to enter the Roman world; You'll be a 20-year-old Roman nobleman with a Roman family of three members, two 16-year-old brothers, and a 40-year-old veteran who has a lot of experience and loyalty. And your family is part of the Roman Senate, and everything except the army is exactly the same as the Roman Total War. ”
"Do you mean that this world is also full of factions and family members? And what about the army? Can I use the system? ”
"That's what it means, the army is just like reality, you need to recruit, you need to eat, drink, and lazar, you need military spending, you need everything. Also, there is no system at all, you are part of this world, not beyond it. ”
"Well, I can understand the affairs of the army; And, that's what I'm after. But, as a legendary protagonist, I always have to have something special. If there is no special at all, then how can I go to conquer the world. Also, I can't be controlled by the Senate forever. ”
"What you say is not entirely unreasonable; In this way, I can give you a special ability, which is that any family member is within 10 meters of you, you can sense their ability. Moreover, when you occupy any of the three provinces, you can be canonized by the Senate as the fourth largest family, becoming a new and independent faction. What do you think? This is going down, right? ”
"Hahahaha, this is the real protagonist mode! Well, I agree! By the way, what about my initial army? Since I am a subordinate of the Senate, the family will definitely not have many troops! How many troops did the Senate start with, where do I get the army from? Moreover, the number of my army must be small, so at least the most elite army should be given. So be it, I am not greedy, three teams of Cretan archers, three teams of Roman elite infantry, three teams of heavy infantry, all of the highest level of experience, equipment, and morale; All right? ”
"Get out! You stinking shameless thing! Are you looking to start with the city of Rome? Get out of here! There are no troops, not even family members, you are just a single person to fight the world! Lao Luo looked at Bai Feng talking to himself alone with a grim face, and then when Bai Feng finished speaking, he scolded him with a slap in the face. After scolding, before Bai Feng could speak, he kicked Bai Feng off the Roman city below.
