Chapter 495: Great Benefits, Epic of the Gods [Asking for Votes]
The capital of Macedonia.
On the way back, Huo Qu's illness gave birth to an induction, and the Divine Mansion was changing.
After he returned to the room, he checked that the twelve stone pillars were being 'absorbed' by the Divine Mansion.
Previously, the Divine Mansion had been evolving, exploring, and stabilizing, and then continuing to pull the breath of heaven and earth and expand the area in a circular process.
The entry of the twelve stone pillars seemed to speed up the expansion process of the Divine Mansion.
And the stone pillar itself seems to be 'awakened', and there is a breath reviving on the pillar.
The ancient text on the column glows.
Huo Quzhi remembered that at the top of one of the stone pillars, there was a hole that fit the war spear, and his thoughts moved slightly, and the war spear placed in the Divine Mansion floated up and fell above the stone pillar.
A slight chorus is heard.
The spear landed in the hole at the top of the stone pillar, and it was tightly sealed.
The twelve stone pillars suddenly changed, and the words and lights on them were intertwined like a giant shield, forming a huge dome of divine power, connecting the twelve stone pillars into a whole.
The ruined temple has become relatively intact.
Dense spots of light emerge from the dome, corresponding to the stars outside the sky.
The expansion speed of the Divine Mansion became faster as the stone pillar released the divine light.
Even the ancient well in the sea of Huo Qu's illness was also pulling and absorbing the power that escaped when the stone pillar derived from the dome of the temple, and a light gold symbol immediately rose in the well.
Huo Quzhi was quite surprised.
This is the first time that Gujing has given a light gold symbol in advance for non-war reasons, or without the blessing of war luck.
With the Light Gold symbol, you can improve your strategy.
……
Royal Palace of Macedonia.
Inside the main hall, most of them have dispersed.
Only the lord of the kingdom, Perseus IV, and the chief priest, Avti, and a few nobles in the core were left in the temple.
They were looking at Alexander's sword.
Last night, Alexander's sword was abnormal, and it was almost pulled through the air by a force, and it was taken back by the lord of the country himself. But Alexander's companion had been trembling, and the texture on the spine of the sword was bright and gone.
Especially after close to dawn, the whole sword was glowing.
"The changes in Alexander's sword have been intensifying." There was a priestly way.
They also sent people to explore the relevant sea areas.
But the Romans arrived first, and their men had not yet had a chance to approach the island. It was only through some channels that I learned some of the news about last night's changes.
For example, 'The Romans on the sea are gathering more and more...... There were Roman generals killed overseas...... The island's contents have been taken by someone of unknown origin, most likely an artifact, and the Romans are working hard to track it down'.
These messages have just been learned by the Macedonian lord and others through a special means of communication.
"What the hell happened last night?"
"Who dares to snatch something from the Romans?"
"What level of artifact can cause the divine light of the entire sea area to shine?"
"Among the accompanying soldiers left by Alexander the Great back then, the holy sword was obtained by me Macedonia and passed down from generation to generation.
The shield of the artifact was taken to Egypt by Ptolemy, and later the shield fell into the hands of the Romans. In addition, there is the most important epic of the gods, and the spear of the god hunting is nowhere to be found. ”
"There is an abnormality in the holy sword in front of you, and the biggest possibility is that the epic of the gods or the divine spear is born."
The stocky chief priest analyzed:
"I said last night that the anomaly in the Western Sea Frontier is likely to be the birth of an epic of the gods or a divine spear."
"For two hundred years, we have been looking for traces of those two artifacts, but unfortunately there has been no clue."
"If it is a holy relic, it is very important to us or to the Romans."
"Who took the artifact?"
Perseus IV muttered: "The Macedonian phalanx used by the Emperor can conquer everything, and has a special way of blessing divine power, and it is said that the combination of those several divine weapons can bless and improve the combat effectiveness of the soldiers." ”
As they spoke, their eyes were always on Alexander's sword.
Since last night, the sword body has been pointing at the Western Sea Frontier.
But after the early hours of the morning, the blade suddenly turned and pointed in the other direction, and trembled even more violently, trying to break free.
At this moment, the lines on the sword swayed, and the whole sword seemed to come to life, sometimes making a sword sound.
"This sword has not only been nourished by the Emperor's breath for many years, but has also been integrated into the national fortune of Macedonia, and has cultivated divinity.
Its change must correspond to something. ”
The chief priest thought for a moment: "Your Majesty can try to let go of the shackles, this sword is spiritual, or there may be gains." ”
Avti nodded in agreement.
At this time of Macedonia's crisis, the emperor's weapon shook, which may have helped Macedonia's situation.
Perseus IV then let the pressure of the fortunes of the country go a little, and Alexander's sword immediately flew out of the palace.
The king, all the ministers, and the priests followed.
The holy sword went out of the main hall, the speed was slightly faster, and in a blink of an eye it came to a hall on the side of the palace, and with a whoosh, it flew into the hall and disappeared.
The Macedonians looked at the temple in front of them in amazement.
It's too close, right on the side of the palace.
"It's ...... The dormitory arranged for the commander of the Eastern Legion to live, adjacent to the royal palace and the temple, is a dormitory for the noble close to the gods. ”
The Prince of York was surprised: "The sword of Alexander...... Why did you fly here? ”
Everyone looked at each other.
In the hall, Huo Qubing saw a sword flying in through the window, and at the same time sensed the arrival of the Macedonian lord and others.
He reached out and grasped it, and the sword fell into his hand with a soft roar.
The void rippled, and the long sword was sent into the Divine Mansion.
The body of the sword rose and fell around the spear and the altar where the stone box was placed, and the sword swelled and sounded.
The dormitory where Huo Qu lived was a small independent building complex, with a white building, a round dome, decorated with blue stripes like the ocean, and some locations were inlaid with precious stones and gold, which was as gorgeous as a shrine.
The porch is lush with Mediterranean greenery.
At this moment, Perseus and his entourage were introduced into the front hall by Huo Quai's personal soldiers.
Bai Nanyu is wearing a rouge Han skirt and a bronze mask, but she still looks enchanting and charming, and has a kind of charm that overwhelms the crowd.
She stood behind Huo Quai, while Gongsun Hong sat at the head of the flank.
The three of them looked at the Macedonian crowd together.
"Respected commander of the Han army, my Macedonian National Weapon Emperor Sword flew in, have you ever seen the commander?" Perseus personally asked.
"I don't see it." Huo went to the sick road.
The Macedonian crowd was stunned, "Obviously flew in......"
The king tried to sense the holy sword, but to no avail.
The connection between the Holy Sword and him was shielded by some kind of force, and there was no fluctuation at all.
Huo Qu'er.
He didn't really want to covet a sword, he reached out and held it, and Alexander's sword was drawn from the void.
Perseus let out a long sigh, if Huo Qu didn't say he didn't see it, he couldn't do anything.
Huo Quzhi threw the sword back to the king, who was over fifty years old.
Unexpectedly, the sword stopped slightly beside him, and then turned around and flew back, hovering around Huo Quai, the end of the sword was light, and he was very 'flattering', as if he was going to change the court, preparing to work for Huo Quai.
Perseus, Avti, the chief priest, and the Prince of York looked shocked.
This Macedonian sword of the town has mutinied?
Afuti suddenly realized: "Did the champion go out last night?" The miraculous changes in the Western Sea Frontier are related to the champion Hou? ”
"It's a trip."
Huo Quzhi admitted it bluntly.
The spear he obtained, the stone box, belonged to Alexander, and the Macedonians needed information about it.
Then the things fall into his hands, and there is no wealth to show in vain, and he is afraid of the scruples of people, who dares to snatch things from him.
At this time, in front of Huo Quai, the void reflected the stone box on the broken temple and the altar.
The scene flashed by, and the people of Macedonia were like lightning strikes, and their hearts throbbed.
"Alexander's Secret Box, the epic of the gods!"
Even King Perseus IV's breathing became heavy.
The Prince of York took a step forward and blurted out: "This is a sacred object that we have passed down from generation to generation, can you give it back to me Macedonia?" ”
"Passed down from generation to generation, why is it in my hands?" Huo Qu's illness was mild.
The Prince of York wanted to say more, but Perseus glared at him fiercely and said to Huo Quzhi: "Besides the stone box, has the commander ever obtained anything else?" ”
"And a war spear."
"Where did these two things come from?" Huo Quzhi asked rhetorically.
Perseus said: "Can the commander tell me first, the divine light in the western sea last night was shining, but it has something to do with the birth of the emperor?" ”
"That's right."
Perseus bowed his head and said: "No wonder the holy sword is abnormal, these two artifacts are the things of Alexander the Great back then, and they are rumored to be given by God."
In that box, if nothing else, is the epic of the gods, the specific content of which only Alexander the Great has ever seen.
It is said that his divine power is invincible in the world, and he comes from the epic of the gods, because he reads the secrets of the gods.
We, and the Romans, have been searching for these two sacred objects for two hundred years. ”
Avti's eyes were full of brilliance, and she said, "Legend has it that only those who are chosen by the gods can hold holy relics. ”
Perseus IV said: "We were still thinking about how to cooperate with the commander.
Now, I can tell the Commander-in-Chief that we are willing to cooperate with you in the same way as you say.
But we have one condition. ”
"I hope that the Commander will return the Emperor's holy relics to us, and we are willing to give anything in exchange."
Huo Quzhi didn't squeak, he didn't even have the interest to pay back the money on the ground, and he wanted to take it back when it came to him, but there was no door.
King Perseus waited for a moment, and when he saw that there was no response, he took the initiative to retreat and said:
"Or, the commander-in-chief can 'lend' something to Macedonia.
The combination of the spear and Alexander's sword and the integration into the battle formation can bless the combat ability of our Macedonian troops, and it will be of great benefit to the commander to let us build a defensive line against the Romans. ”
"Moreover, the commander may not know that the stone box can only be opened unless Alexander's descendants or the emperor's blood is fused.
I, the only Macedonian in the world, have two drops of imperial blood, which are just used as a reward for borrowing the divine spear.
We will give the commander a drop of the emperor's blood, open the stone box, I want to follow the commander to see the content of the epic of the gods, the epic itself is still kept by the commander, how about it? ”
It's not impossible to say that.
Huo Quzhi was not afraid that someone would dare not return what he had borrowed, and it would be good for defending against Rome, and it could buy him time to attack Parthia.
What's more, Macedonians are willing to pay a lot of money.
"In addition to the Emperor's blood, I can also open my Macedonian treasury."
Perseus IV's eyes were fiery and he kept raising his chips, which shows his desire for the epic of the gods:
"The treasury of Macedonia has been handed down from the time of Alexander the Great, and the surrounding countries have been conquered by the Great, and the treasures in the treasury have been coveted by the Romans for many years.
The main reason why they have always wanted to conquer our Macedonia is related to the fact that we have the treasures of the Emperor in our treasury.
We opened the treasury and let the commander go in and select three artifacts. ”
"In addition to the Divine Spear, we need that temple with twelve stone pillars, and if I'm not mistaken, it's the Primordial Temple!
You can bless the priests with divine powers, lend them to us, and return them after the battle with the Romans. Avti suddenly interjected.
Perseus and the chief priests were stunned.
For a short moment just now, they didn't see clearly where the stone box was placed, and the twelve stone pillars around it were the legendary Initial Temple.
Huo Quzhi thought about it for a while, took out the stone box, and tossed it in his hand: "I will leave Macedonia later, let's start trading." Go to the treasury to pick up something, increase to five.
The Emperor's Blood was brought first. ”
Perseus IV saw the stone box and took a deep breath.
There were two drops of Alexander's imperial blood, one of which he carried with him, took it out immediately, and handed it to Huo Quai.
Huo Quzhi took the vial containing the emperor's blood, which was carved from the horns of a cow, and put it away, and the palm of his hand flowed.
The stone box was in his hand, and he didn't need the emperor's blood to open it, and he tried it when he got the box.
The lines on it fit with the soldiers, and the seemingly one-piece stone box had an extra gap in the middle, which quietly opened!
"This stone box can be opened without the blood of the emperor...... "The Macedonian crowd was full of surprise.
When the stone box was opened, a pale golden shimmer overflowed inside, revealing the epic of the gods.
