Marcus walked into the warehouse, and in the darkness there were many muzzles pointed at him, and many mirrors and muzzle reflections could be faintly seen.

"Who, can speak?"

He shouted to him in Latin. As he spoke, he walked step by step towards the depths of the warehouse. And in response to him was not words, but shooting. The firepower that came out of the warehouse just now was all on him alone.

The rain of bullets poured down undisguisedly, and the firepower was almost hysterical, and all the fire points in the entire warehouse were exposed. However, so many bullets did not stop Marcus from moving forward.

His movements were not delayed. Every time a bullet hit him, it was as if he was completely unaffected.

Not a single bullet could penetrate his armor, not even a spark, because the effect of the hit was completely beyond the comprehension of common sense - all the bullets were bounced off, and there was little aftereffect. No known metal has this hardness, and this unbreakable armor even looks close to divine chrome, or some other otherworldly divine protection.

The bullets that fell to the ground clanged, and the bullets all deflated into round cakes. It seems that after the tip of the warhead is blocked, the rear part of the warhead compresses it due to inertia, and directly presses the warhead like this. Various bullets quickly accumulated at his feet, and with each step he took, he waded through the rolling bullets on the ground as if they were wading through water.

"What is this?" Shang Luo asked Fa Ertong next to him, "It's very interesting to watch, what is the principle?" ”

"The Aigis system, an integrated protection system, is powered by the lights on them. Reality can be overwritten within the range of the lantern field, such as making these shadowless soldiers generate the weight of the living out of thin air, such as allowing them to interact with the world under the sun again, etc. By applying it to different objects, it can resist different effects. When applied to the armor, it will produce this defensive effect similar to that of divine chrome - indestructible, does not produce any deformation, and does not conduct any impact. ”

"So. And at what cost? ”

"The cost is that it consumes phlogiston. Unlike the artifacts you carry, your armor can keep these bullets at bay, even through the wear and tear of time. But the Aegis system is only a simulation of divine power to some extent, not a real harnessing of divine power. So many bullets consume quite a lot of phlogiston, and I guess he's going to fight back. ”

After taking a few steps, he found that the firepower had not diminished in the slightest, and it seemed that there was no possibility of rational negotiation. As Phaethon had expected, he was about to make a move.

"Tsk, uncivilized barbarian." He stood still, reached for his back, and pulled out a shield from under his burqa.

A round, mirror-like shield. He held his shield in front of him, and all the bullets that rained down hit the mirror—and then they reflected directly back at the same speed as they had been, along the original trajectory, at the original angle.

There was a crackling sound in the darkness. In less than a second, the gunfire stopped.

"Can it still be used like this?"

"Attach it to the mirror and reflect it back. Well, that's a very common usage. After all, although Marcus and they have become the shadowless legion of the underworld, they are still not gods, they are not demigods, they are not the masters of divine power, and they have not yet ignited the spark. So when using the power of phlogiston, they need some hints: armor symbolizes defense, mirrored shields can bounce, and they must be assisted by such tools in order to harness the power of phlogiston. ”

Shang Luo nodded: "This seems to be indeed stronger than before." ”

"Yes. After all, they have gone back to the point of humans in the Bronze Age. Although it has not yet reached the strength of the human race in the Silver Age, it is more than enough to deal with these mundane forces. This doesn't break the defense at all, it can't be penetrated at all, and it can't be broken at all. Unless his 'battery' runs out, even if he lets them play for a day, it won't have any effect. ”

"This is, the gap in divine power?"

This can sometimes be called mystical – a summary, a definition. Judging by the level of exposure to the mystery. The mystery of mundane life is often 0, and the Romans, as humans in the heroic age, have a mystery of 1, and at their point it is already 2, which is comparable to the combat power of angels. In mythology, many daring humans dare to declare war on angels, and the fate of their attack on angels is now similar to the fate of attacking these soldiers in front of you. ”

"I remember watching a fairy tale."

[Ah, I know what you're going to say, it's part of Grimm's fairy tales.] It is said that there was a proud prince who conquered the world, conquered the nations, and then wanted to challenge the heavens. He built chariots pulled up with a hundred giant eagles, which had 999 cannon holes like peacock feathers. As he approached Heaven, Heaven sent an army of angels, but only one angel came to fight the prince. The prince fired his 999 cannons, and literally caused a drop of angelic blood to bleed - that single drop of blood, which fell on the prince's chariot, and burned him, his chariot, his eagle, and his entire army. 】

"Hmm." Phaethon nodded, "That's what it means." This is also the hole card that allows us to continue to interfere in this world after entering the spirit realm - our mystery level has increased overall. Although the distance from the mortal world has become farther away, and it has become more troublesome to interfere in the world, the increased mystery itself can suppress the mortal beings. These bullets, guns, no matter how many, are just 'the prince's chariot'. They can't even make the angels bleed, that's all. ”

Shang Luo shook his head: "It's strange, who is setting up an ambush here." What the hell are they ambushing? I don't understand. ”

They came after the rumbling signal. The signal shows that the location of the rumbling is in this factory. These sudden bullets appear to be protecting, but in fact they are just a futile struggle. Shang Luo didn't even understand why they were attacking so hysterically. This obviously won't have any effect, and it looks like going crazy for the sake of an order from a high position, not for some tactical purpose.

Sure enough, just as he had guessed, the gun went off again. It was still an endless stream of shots being thrown at Marcus, as if nothing had been learned.

Until, the silver tip of the sword pierced out of the shield.
