Chapter 279: Legacy, Prophecy, and Seal (Part II)

Listening to a group of old men arguing is not intended to be a very boring thing, but if the content of their discussion happens to involve a lot of secrets, then this boredom is not so boring. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Lu Li sat quietly in front of the laptop screen at the moment, constantly getting the information he urgently needed from the quarrel, and slowly, the questions that had been surrounding his heart finally found answers.

First of all, the stone tablet that is mentioned repeatedly should not actually be said to be a stone tablet, but a huge fresco of a declining temple, which records in the form of a myth what happened after the appearance of Zeus' legion on Earth, interspersed with many descriptions of other worlds, but these are not the most important.

On top of that, at the end of the mural, Zeus had a crazy idea that turned him against his wife, brothers, and children, and after a great battle, he was sealed away by everyone and locked up in a place that was said to be impossible for anyone to find.

The tablet later warned mortals and prophesied that once the King of the Gods reawakened from the seal, he would use his terrifying power to kill all living life and rule the sky, earth, and seas again, becoming the sole and supreme lord of the world, and nothing else in the world could compete with it.

As time passed, the ancient Greek civilization slowly declined, and Rome, located on the Italian peninsula, took advantage of the opportunity to rise, and in just a few hundred years, through killing and conquest, created a super-empire that spanned Europe, Asia and Africa.

The first emperor of the empire, Diocletian, in order to consolidate his power, tried to deify himself by using Jupiter, the Roman name of Zeus.

Hearing the news, Constantius I, the father of the famous Constantine the Great, immediately led his trusted men to Mount Olympus, considered a sacred mountain by the ancient Greeks.

Unfortunately, the slate he obtained did not arouse Diocletian's interest, and they were all discarded as garbage.

However, Constantius I was convinced that the contents of the tablet must exist, so he spent a lot of time and experience searching for it, and finally the effort paid off, and he found some tainted crystals and an ancient map in an abandoned temple.

With the power of these tainted crystals, he secretly trained a group of powerful warriors, and used these warriors to conquer the east and west, quickly amassing enough prestige to eventually become an emperor during the reign of the Four Emperors.

However, due to health problems, Constantius I died of illness just over a year after ascending to the throne, and his son Constantine I ascended to the throne, using the powerful warriors left behind by his father, quickly defeated all rivals and became the sole emperor of the entire Roman Empire.

However, the emperor was not satisfied with the status quo, and began to secretly order his eldest son, Crispus, to search for things related to the gods according to the records on the map, eager to obtain the power of immortality from it.

Apparently unable to disobey the orders of the Emperor and Father, Crispus embarked on a search journey with five warriors who had mastered the power of the Polluted Crystal.

No one knows what he went through along the way, and no one knows what kind of ordeal he went through!

In short, when the first heir of the empire returned, the young man who had been smart, wise, and modest was gone, replaced by a cruel, cold, aggressive, fierce and crazy guy with a fierce and crazy look in his eyes.

Like his grandfather, Constantius I, he was a believer in the Greek gods, and he was eager to find out and break the seals one by one according to his grandfather's last words, so that the king of the gods could come to earth, and he could also receive the reward of the god-king and become an immortal god.

With everyone on his back, Crisps secretly gathered a group of followers and quietly opened the five seals marked on the map, and just as he was busy turning the treasures obtained from these seals into power, Constantine the Great discovered what his son had done and uprooted him with lightning speed, and only a few people were able to escape.

Obviously, Constantine I was very worried about the possible fulfillment of the prophecy on the frescoes, so in his old age, he secretly gave all the crystals, frescoes, and treasures obtained after opening the seal to an unknown illegitimate son, and asked him to remain incognito and never let these things appear in the mortal world.

And this illegitimate child is the founder of the Presbyterian Church and the six major families.

It's just that his descendants did not strictly follow the rules set by their ancestors, and gradually became tempted by the power of the Fallen Crystal, and finally evolved into what they are now.

As for the inheritance mentioned by the mysterious man, he refers to the inheritance of the gods, that is, the treasures stored in the seals, including crystals, weapons, armor, magic props, etc., used by the members of the Zeus legion, each of which can bring power to ordinary people that is difficult to confident, so that everyone who comes into contact with it firmly believes that the gods are real.

Of course, many of the above are Lu Li's inferences, and there may be a little discrepancy after actually seeing those stone slabs.

Just as he was thinking about the purpose of the mysterious man snatching the lockbox, he suddenly heard Chief Elder Ethan calling his name, and hurriedly came back to his senses.

"Enoch Castro, have you fought that mysterious man?" asked the old man as he glared at two piercing eyes.

"Yes, I've fought with him!" Lu Li nodded without thinking.

"Can you control him, then?" asked the old man again.

Lu Li deliberately pretended to be bitter and shook his head: "No." Whenever I invade his consciousness, I immediately feel an attack of crazy consciousness, and if it wasn't for the quick withdrawal, I'm afraid you wouldn't be able to see me now. In addition, I suspect that they have infiltrated government agencies in certain countries. ”

"Damn! These guys must be found right away! We can't wait any longer! Take out the sealed inheritance! Or you can kill the guy with the spear of the god of war and the helmet of the god of war on his head!" suggested an old man in a wheelchair on a drip.

"No, it's not the time yet! We can't act rashly until we know the identity and number of the enemy. What's more, the times are evolving, and what couldn't be done before doesn't mean that it can't be done now. Let's get our intelligence system up and running first, and if we find a target, we can get the security company's people out as soon as they are found, and I don't believe he can stop the heavy machine guns and missiles. ”

As the last word blurted out, a hint of fierceness flashed in Ethan's eyes.

"I will go and convey your order! Please rest assured, if the other side really infiltrates the US political circles, then I guarantee that I will find out what will be found out in a month and a half at most. With that, Lucy put one hand on her chest and bowed, turned and walked out of the office.

After just two or three minutes, the civilian staff, who had been very idle, quickly began to contact the staff through emails, phone calls, and text messages, and the whole organization was running efficiently...... (To be continued.) )
