"What? Brother, do you want me to steal the white candle that communicates with the gods?"
Early in the morning, when the sleepy Levin heard what Ma Wei said, his sleepiness flew away immediately and he was dumbfounded.
"You are the Rose Phantom Thief and the current Archbishop of the Church of Truth. If you don't want to go, do you want me to go?"
"I retired a long time ago! The current Rose Phantom Thief is Gina!"
"Then let her go."
Ma Wei took a sip of hot tea and said calmly: "I think she is happy to take on this task. After all, if she doesn't go, you have to go."
"Wow, brother, you are too despicable!"
Levin clutched his chest and sat across from him, feeling unspeakably sad: "The White Candle is in the Cult of Fertility. In Rome, it is the headquarters of the Fertility Goddess. Let Gina go there to steal things. She has already stolen something before. Isn’t it true that Bai Zhu, the god of communication, is going to die?”
After Levin retired and joined the Church of Truth, Gina inherited the identity of Rose Phantom Thief. She did this mainly to provide a cover for Levin so that Levin could exit safely.
There are countless people staring at the Rose Phantom Thief, and his sudden disappearance will definitely arouse the suspicion of many people.
"The villain, the Prime Minister, said that the only thing holding Ma Wei back is the Sardinians who live a comfortable life, not to mention the God of Fertility." Looking at the front of her, Zhuang Weishan said loudly: "The Lord of Fertility is a god suitable for fighting."
On the other side, Frederick's Kingdom was even more ruthless, relying on war to support war, and the Rhine League was still far from being annexed.
Rome Central Station.
The porcupine soon lost its ability to move, collapsed to the ground, and was pulled back from the iron fence. Levin immediately recognized that the red liquid smeared on the spear was the mercury blood sold by the Manstein Potion Company. I never thought of it, The blood of mercury has no such use.
Levin imagined a scene where Maomao opened a coffee shop, and I imagined it.
In the field, a tiger is being eaten by a porcupine covered with silver needles. They are extraordinary creatures. The porcupine's tusks are less than two meters long. The sharp teeth tear open the tiger's belly, pull out the internal organs and chew them. It is a bloody scene. Make the audience more excited.
"That's for sure." Zhuang Weishan thought for a while: "There are no extraordinary creatures that are too weak to kill more than a dozen opponents in a row. Even gladiators can defeat them. Those extraordinary creatures that are very powerful will especially be sent to Roman beasts. field, fighting against my puny opponents, they will also gain reproductive rights."
Speaking at the forefront, Shen Baizhu raised his voice: "Emperor Mawei always believed that the Sardinians were barbaric, and all the real Romans were dead."
It is indeed glorious to be called a barbarian by his own emperor, but who calls him Zhuang Wei?
"You reported that matter to the Prime Minister a long time ago." Zhuang Weishan said.
"What? A coffee shop?!"
"Damn it, he must have read too few Shakespearean anthologies!"
Manstein Maritime Company.
Stopping the carriage, Levin took Dabai, Ketong Shenbai and Shenbai Zhu, and walked back from the Colosseum, followed by a small group of members of the Holy Light Mithril Society who were closely protecting him. People were so scared that the administrator of the Colosseum even dared to check the tickets.
The appearance of an enemy allowed the Church of the Eight Male Gods of Destiny to break the deadlock. She relaxed the restrictions on potions and allowed a small amount of mercury blood to be exported. At the same time, as the leading party, she strengthened her cooperation with our church to jointly fight against the rising power of the Church. Witch God Cult.
No money, no food, no gun in hand.
War is about national strength and money.
"Gladiators will especially wait for extraordinary creatures to be injured before entering." Zhuang Weishan said: "That cannot guarantee the minimum failure, which is considered harvest."
Ma Wei coldly invited Levin to go to the palace for a banquet. Levin couldn't refuse, so he and Dabai split up. I went to the palace later, and Dabai went to the streets to gather information.
"Oh? What did I say?"
Although Gina was an apprentice taught by Levine, Levine did not teach her the experience of the Phantom Thieves. At the level of Levine and Holmes, experience is often more important than technology. Sometimes the sudden 'smell' can even play a greater role. The effect of changing the situation.
"This porcupine is not qualified to go to Rome." Shen Baizhu shook his head.
What they lack is the top-notch combat power.
It was another fight and she was very worried. Levin wanted to watch it again, so he returned to the hotel to rest. Early on the seventh day, he got on the train to Rome.
It cannot be said that, except for the Romanov Kingdom, no other country behaves like that.
Ma Wei must have realized that victory was not inevitable.
In order to correct the overly comfortable thinking of the Sardinians, Mawei angrily launched the Colosseum Project, intending to use that kind of bloody sport to awaken the nature of the Sardinians.
Ma Wei's plan has been implemented very smoothly. At least until now, the audience has indeed become a little more barbaric. The sleeping elements in her genes are awakening, and her bloodthirsty nature is constantly being released.
Levin felt like he was hallucinating: "He's a cat. What kind of coffee shop does he open?"
Levin's arrival is exactly what I wanted to see. The only regret is that it was not the person who came but Gina.
"Why is Lao Qi so stupid! How can a cat drink coffee? If it is sold to humans to drink, meow!"
I also have to say goodbye to Helena and Tiffany!
I stopped and watched for a while. The iron bars in the arena were raised. A woman wearing iron armor who looked like a medieval gladiator walked out of the arena with a sword and shield. The porcupine immediately threw the body and rushed towards me. The two sides fought together. The atmosphere dropped again.
Zhuang Wei said that he would inform Helena and you for me, but that is totally the same thing!
Ma Wei wants a group of warriors, a group of soldiers! He's a white-hand guy who wears a suit and tie and sits outside the office talking about bullshit rules!
Following the cargo ship before arriving at Les, Levin needs to stop in Les. I will go to Rome to negotiate with the Pope of the Cult of Plenty. In order to welcome me, the nobles of Les held a party for me. A grand banquet was held, and a motorcade was promised to escort me to Rome early on the seventh day.
Gina had already thought of a way for Levin. As a director of the Manstein Potion Company, Levin would later go to the Roman Republic to find the Church of Abundance to discuss the purchase of potions. As long as Levin could find out where Zhuang Weishan's candle was kept. , Gina will lure away the rich male god. Without the male god sitting in charge, Levin will have nothing to fear.
When Levin came to the Roman Republic that time, in addition to the task of stealing Liam Candle, he also had to negotiate a sales contract for mercury blood with the Roman Republic.
"That's too fair, nya!"
Since Levin chose to become the junior bishop of the Church of Truth, he should shoulder the corresponding responsibilities, and giving up the identity of the Rose Phantom Thief for the church is not one of the responsibilities.
It was Levin's first time to come to the Roman Republic and he was not unfamiliar with it. Unfortunately, he did not have the help of people from the Manstein Potion Branch, so he quickly adapted to the situation.
Dabai jumped off the table and said arrogantly: "Some cats hate being house cats, and some cats hate being stray cats. They have no claws and can't be self-reliant! They can't work, meow!"
The cost of domestication is very low, but once domestication is successful, the returns will be limited.
In the top bleachers, Levin, who had just walked out of the tunnel, felt a cold wave, mixed with the excited screams of the audience. The Colosseum was full of people, everyone was blushing, waving their fists and shouting softly.
Levin's head dropped when he heard it.
Back in Paris, the Judgment Church helped Gina and others escape, and the Church of the Eight Male Gods of Destiny also refused to sell a certain amount of mercury blood to the Kingdom of Frederick every year in return. Before experiencing the Dambala incident, the Central Continent Cooperation between several countries and the Holy See has obviously weakened.
"Little Count, the goods you sent to the Roman Republic did not include finished potions and potion raw materials. The finished potions were..."
Levin took out a large silver jug and took a sip, feeling no longer disappointed.
The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and Levin, who was unfamiliar with Gina's way of speaking, understood.
"Cat Cafe!"
The barbarians in the ancient Roman period fought against the weak and the weak, which was a necessary ability to survive in the small nature. It is for this reason that Mawei called the Sardinians barbarians. Surprisingly, the Sardinians turned out to be hostile to those barbarians. Zhuang Wei became even more angry at this scornful comment.
"Do extraordinary creatures have to die?"
Hearing this, Dabai rolled his eyes and said disdainfully: "You got sent away with just a few fish? My little brother opened a fishing company, and he didn't finish the fish every day! Meow!"
"Let's go."
"As long as there are no Siren's Tears, cats can't be turned into humans, meow! Can't cat people open a shop?"
Reproductive rights.
Glancing at the silent Levin, Gina added: "The action funds are outside the envelope in front of the counter. You will send Ketong Shenbai to follow him. No problem. Return in time."
"Is it a battle between humans, but a duel between extraordinary creatures?"
"You know what to do."
Levin heard Zhuang Wei say a long time ago that the so-called reproductive rights are just a method used by humans to domesticate them. The cubs are taken away and cultivated as soon as they are born, and they are domesticated into obedient creatures. This is also the case in the Windsor Kingdom. Do.
The Roman Republic was short of money, and even more so, food.
"He didn't send the warning letter that time. He delayed telling Fengsao Church that he wanted to steal Zhuang Weishan's candle. It's strange that he only strengthened his defense."
Look at Napoleon next door. He has not yet invested half of the country's income in national defense, frantically deploying troops and cultivating magic personnel.
Rose Phantom Thief can also show off his skills.
That is bad news, but as long as Gina can launch a revolution to take over the Kingdom of Windsor and form the Little Northern Alliance, the export of mercury blood can be stopped.
Levin scratched his head without embarrassment: "This is the rule. If you do that, who will remember you as the Phantom Thief of Rose?"
"He is now the little cardinal bishop of the Church of Truth. Without the qualifications to elect a pope, he has long been a phantom thief who is no longer in the spotlight."
"How to do it?"
Gina said fiercely: "Whatever you choose, you will lose. What you cherish in the future means that you will cherish it in the past. Just like the toys and friendships in childhood, they always disappear inadvertently."
It was so hot inside that every breath she took brought excruciating pain. It was like a cabin like hers.
The dinner was very sumptuous, and Levin also drank a lot of wine. As a shareholder of the Manstein Potion Company, I would naturally receive extremely low courtesy. Few nobles wanted to take the opportunity to sign an unprofitable agreement with me. The contract was passed by me and she was very disappointed.
"Emperor Zhuang Wei believed that the Sardinians were too lazy and had lost their fighting spirit and bloody spirit in their prosperous life, so he ordered the construction of the Colosseum and restarted the sports of the ancient Roman period, thus awakening the barbaric nature of the Sardinians."
Levin had sobered up a little, looking at the scene behind him and lost in thought.
what is that?
Levin was stunned for a moment, thinking about how long ago that was. Slavery had been abolished, so why was there no Colosseum in ancient Rome?
"You ask him, meow, how do cats realize their self-worth?"
"What does he want?"
Gina took out her pocket watch and took a look: "Half an hour ago."
While Mawei was busy rectifying the Sardinians, the other kingdoms had already retreated into a low-speed development stage!
"That's the price of her growth. In the future, he will definitely choose the Rose Phantom Thief. But he has changed. He has stopped worrying about others because he has nothing else he cares about more, so he chooses to kill his past self with his own hands. , happiness is inevitable.”
"Huh?" Levin was dumbfounded: "Your own value? The cat's self-worth?"
Levin stood at the edge of the freighter, looking at Zhuang Wei who waved to him and watched him leave, and stayed for a long time.
In war, frontline is the most important thing.
What a dog!
"."
Without Mavi, we are not the orthodox Romans and are the center of the world.
Considering that time was tight, Levin didn't complain too much. He just asked Ketong Shenbai, who was disguised as his assistant, to contact the accountant, and then picked up Dabai who had disembarked from the ship and walked out of the cabin.
The reason why Dabai is also under the boat is to help Levin. There are no stray cats in every city. If you communicate with them, you will get a lot of secret information.
"It's a racecourse." Shen Baizhu, general manager of the branch, said, "This is the Colosseum built under the order of Emperor Ma Wei."
In a one-on-one situation, the God of Fertility is a possible opponent of the God of Judgment. This alone limits the lower limit of the Roman Republic.
"Come back and bring him fish to eat. There is generally little seafood in the Roman Republic."
It was a bad thing that Zhuang Wei wanted to inspire the Sardinians to be bloody. That decision was also a wise one, but it was a long process and did not happen overnight.
Some of the gladiators who entered the arena were able to defeat the porcupine, but instead were pierced through the belly by the porcupine's sharp quills. Just when the porcupine was about to pursue the victory and kill the gladiator with its tusks, spears stained with red liquid flew from the wall. came out and scratched the porcupine's skin.
"Colosseum?"
"Of course I won't let you die." Ma Wei said: "I will distract the goddess of fertility and provide you with time to take action."
"The little Prime Minister said that if you stock up on grain next door and you stock up on guns, the next door is not your granary." Shen Baizhu shrugged: "You also know what that sentence means, but the little Prime Minister probably has no idea."
"But in a war, frontline personnel work hard, right?"
Levin was slightly surprised by Zhuang Wei's personal greeting. In fact, Ma Wei attached great importance to the mercury blood contract. It was an important part of my revitalization of the Kingdom of Sardinia. She was very concerned about mercury. With his blood, I can ensure the abnormal operation of the Colosseum, and I can also ensure that I can capture living extraordinary creatures.
On the way back to the hotel, the carriage passed a ring-shaped building. There was a dim firelight outside, and cheers erupted from time to time. Levin couldn't help but ask: "What is that outside? The racetrack?"
"Cats drink coffee too?"
When he heard the arrangement, Dabai was furious on the spot: "He went to the palace to eat and drink, and asked you to go to the streets in the cold wind to collect intelligence! Is that bullying a cat?"
Half an hour later, I was still lying outside the cool quilt. Half an hour ago, I stepped off the freighter bound for Rome.
The words were not final. Gina left enough room for Levin to think. My meaning is complicated.
The cargo ship encountered a storm along the way south, but finally passed through the Strait of Gibraltar without any danger and docked at the port of Les Les Ports.
"You're happy, right? Breaking away from your future self and abandoning it is like killing your past self."
The Windsor Kingdom and the Romanov Kingdom are both developing alchemy puppets and studying magic circles. Even the Voodoo Kingdom has begun research under the guidance of Saladin.
".You understand."
Canary Wharf.
"As long as you use Zhuang Weishan's candle to lure them away, it won't work. Your side is the bait, the key is his side."
There is no noisy accountant next to me reporting the status of the goods.
"When are you leaving?"
"A cat, a qualified cat, should only live to please humans!"
"You want to open a coffee shop, meow."
Looking at the crazy expressions of the audience, I felt a sense of security in my heart.
