Chapter 792: The Two-Horned King's Plan
"There has never been a shadow of a man as complete and full as Alexanderβof course, these are only the basis for a complete personality. If you want to ignite a divine fire, you need a little spark of inspiration. β
"Huh? Where did you find the spark? β
"Sorry, that's a trade secret. I didn't say I was going to answer all your questions. Shouldn't you be more concerned about what I'm going to do? β
"Well, I guess, you want to put the world in a painting like the Academy of Athens?"
"Don't talk so badly." He waved his hand, "I think there's a lot of room for negotiation between what you've described and my vision. β
"And I seem to have discovered that you're fundamentally different from the rest of the silhouettes β you're always drawing in new information, aren't you? You're not one of those silhouettes that only sells ice cream, or just stands guard. You are really, living in this era, and you are gaining new experiences from this world. β
"Uh-huh, so I know about you too. So I think that only you can help me - the fundamental purpose of what I am doing, the only long-cherished wish I have to live in this era. My dreams, my light. β
"What are your requirements?"
"My wife, Roxana, my shining star. You know, I've conquered my known world, I've come to the end of the world. My desires as a human being have been fully satisfied. My only regrets are Roxana and our child Alex - I haven't met him, but I've decided that he's going to take my name. All I hope is to get Aurora's help and get them back to me. β
"Ah, how can I help you?"
"Roxana was the princess of Bactria, a country known in Aurora history as 'Bactria 'Bactria', with its capital in present-day Samarkand, the center of Aurora's rule over the West: Riveroxian. I hope to get Aurora's help in excavating the ruins of Bactria from Rivera, and finding some fragments of history to regain my light. β
"Hmm," Shang Luo asked rhetorically in the channel, and he asked Apollonia, "Do you believe it?" β
[It's hard to say. This argument seems complete, but it doesn't seem strong enough. Although he explained that he had no desires anymore, in reality his current state was equivalent to that of an elf. And like all elves, his life is ignited by passion, and bursts out of passion. Now he has shown the power to subvert the Roman Empire, which clearly does not match his description of 'wanting to regain his light'. If you just want to get your wife back, what does it have to do with the destruction of the Roman Empire? γ
"So, you mean he still has something he hasn't explained?"
[What is his real passion, I have been wondering a lot. I wonder if Alexander's desire for conquest can really be satisfied. He was confined to the form of a mortal, and he could still attack India. Now that he has an immortal body, he may do anything to spread his reputation. The body of an elf is quite dangerous. Until you find out where his passion comes from, his motives can be described as unpredictable. But I don't think it's as simple as resurrecting his wife. γ
"Understood, then I'll just perfunctory him."
[Choose wisely. Anyway, it wouldn't hurt to promise him, the place they were going to investigate was outside the Inner Great Wall, and inside the Outer Great Wall. Although they are in the middle ground in terms of control, keeping an eye on them is not a problem. Even if he were to cooperate with the archaeological excavations, there would be nothing to lose to you. But for now, you'd better perfunctory him. γ
"Well, Mr. Alexander, I think the matter is discussable. I will inform the relevant authorities as soon as possible to assess the feasibility of this matter, so please wait for good news. β
"Apollonia." Alexander suddenly shouted, "Actually, there should be some festivals between us. β
[Huh? What is the holiday? Apollonia spoke from outside.
"Apollo's arrow killed Achilles."
[You see, I am 'the Apollo of our time', not the Apollo in Homer's epic poems.] γ
"At that moment, at this moment. I'm not Achilles, am I? So we can still calculate this account. β
[What do you call this!] I don't owe you anything. γ
"I'll plant you."
[Eh?????? γ
Apollonia was suddenly stunned: [What did you say? γ
"I said, I have a way for you to be truly born in the sun."
[Really? γ
"If I want my wife back, I definitely can't just let my wife come back. That's what I can offer β I can grow you. β
γShang Luo! Promise him! Help him get his wife back! γ
"Why did you change your mind so quickly!"
[He can make me a human!] It can make me a human! Is there anything more important than that? Apollonia, the small flame that had been built up from the time of departure, was rekindled by Alexander after being beaten back by Karin's straight punch.
"Calm down. If you say it, you will believe it, what is the difference between this and telecom fraud. I'll have to let it come up with proof. β
"Miss Apollonia, I'm guessing you'd like to know by now whether my promise will come trueβand why others have been slow to come up with a suitable plan for you, but I can."
[Uh-huh, I want to know. Do you have proof? γ
"Wait a minute." He looked at the elevator pointer to the floor he was heading to, and took a step forward, standing directly behind the elevator door.
Ding, the elevator door opened.
The scene of "The School of Athens" appears impressively ahead. The zenith has a pantheon-like height that does not match the height of the floor. The sages, like the scene in the painting, communicate in the daylight. Surrounded by double-horned attendants with wine glasses shuttling back and forth.
"Do you want to taste it?" At the elevator entrance, Alexander took the glass from the squire's hand and took a sip of it.
[Wait, can you drink?] Are you really, completely? γ
"Why should I lie to you? You'll soon learn that everything I do is for the sake of the Pure One. For this, I need a lot of friends and I also need to create a conducive environment. In order for the ideal to become a reality, Thebes had to be brought into the sun, and that is why I am here. Even the destruction of Rome was among them, and it really had to be done. β
[Me]
"Are you still hesitating? You're wondering if this glass of wine in my hand is fake, right? Would you like to have a drink with His Excellency the King of Rome? β
[Don't.] Apollonia immediately refused, "Don't want to fish in troubled waters and let him eat food from a foreign land. I'm not going to be fooled. γ
"Okay then." Alexander thought for a moment, "How about you treat me to something to eat?" Your Excellency, do you have any food with you? I had to prove that my plan was really viable, at least for myself. β
"Shall I take a look at the wotou, will you eat?"
