In the office, with a calm expression on his face, he said lightly, "I would like to hear more about it."
Franklin lowered his head, seemed to be sorting out his thoughts, and said after a while: "As I said just now, the will of the planet is the will that overrides all life, and we have no way of knowing what it is thinking, because we are not at the same height. However, I have been in contact with Agladis for a long time. Especially the arrival of Proseus forced him to cooperate with us, so that we have the opportunity to touch him and speculate on his thoughts."
"For example, if the planet is a giant and Agladis is the giant's soul, then we are the parasites or bacteria on his body. Of course, we are the life he intentionally created, but once this life Without his control, you can imagine how he will deal with us. There were four civilization epochs before you, and our Atlantis is an era when the civilization of this planet has reached unprecedented prosperity. Our city is suspended in the sky On the sky, the king is on the whole land. Our energy conversion platform is set up on the sea, through which we can obtain pure energy, but our more important technology lies in the use of light energy...
"Franklin showed nostalgia, opened his arms and said: "All visible light such as solar energy, starlight, and cosmic rays are within our range of use. Because of this technology, we have touched the world of gods, or the origin of the world. Our fleet has already begun to explore outer space, and the Milky Way cannot restrain our pace at all, if there is no Proseus. Perhaps in another millennium, we'll be able to develop colonized galaxies. And all of this is a threat to Agladis. "
"If Proseus didn't appear, or what we are facing is just another disaster. The disaster created by Agladis himself..."
Zero showed a pensive expression.
Franklin continued: "The will of our great planet is already very proficient in this kind of thing. After waking up in this era, I used the intellectual brain array in the Pope's Hall to read the civilized minutes of your era. In your "Bible In ", there is not the theory of flood destroying the world. And in the myths and legends of other countries, there are also various rumors of gods destroying the world. Although these legends have been distorted or exaggerated, in our time, after we have studied some The research on the ruins has indeed proved that a certain civilization will suffer natural destruction when it reaches its peak. We have reason to believe that this is all done by Agladis consciously, and he does not allow threats to exist in his body to the existence of their own civilization... ”
"At that time, our Atlantis had already conquered the sky, the earth and the sea, and even the sea of stars could not stop us. It is foreseeable that the more we develop to the peak, the more we will speed up the coming of Agladis. It’s nothing more than a storm of destruction. However, at this time, Proseus suddenly arrived, disrupting all plans of Agladis. For this foreign enemy, Proseus’s threat is obviously greater than ours, so he He had to appear in front of us in the form of descending, and chose to cooperate with us. But..." Franklin emphasized: "Agladis' cooperation is not entirely out of good intentions. Of course, self-protection still accounts for a huge proportion. The bigger thing is that he wants us to fight against Proseus. Judging from the various abilities he showed later, he can completely help us resist Proseus in the early stage, as long as he opens up to us similar to your era. Ability gene, then we will definitely not play so badly in former Si."
When Franklin said this, there was anger in his eyes: "In the early stage of Proseus's appearance, we basically used our lives to make up for the damage caused by its energy insects. Until we were seriously injured, Agladis Only then began to manufacture the combat weapons known as gods, as well as the super life Gaia."
"God... Gaia..." Zero repeated these two words in his mouth. He was no stranger to the battle weapon called God. After all, the organ transplanted from God was used in his right eye. Of course, human beings have speculated that God was created by Atlantis. But the truth is, it turned out to be a weapon made by Agladis himself.
As for Gaia, he is no stranger, because the cells in his body come from this fourth era ultra life form.
"The weapon of God is a weapon created with the concept of perfect attack power. It can be said that its power has reached the limit that the entire world can accommodate. But even so, it is still a weapon in the planet, and it cannot be used against Proseus at all. This planet-level will causes destruction. That’s why Agladis created Gaia. Gaia’s ultimate goal is a perfect life beyond the will of the planet. He has the possibility of infinite evolution. However, when he created it, but I didn’t even have a chance to use it once, so I sealed it up for Agladis.” Franklin sneered, “Because he discovered that Gaia has independent will, and doesn’t completely follow his orders like a god. For Agladis, there is nothing more dangerous than having an independent will and being able to surpass his life."
"However, all these things were not created by Agladis out of good intentions. Whether it is a god or Gaia, they are actually the second body that Agladis rebuilt for himself!"
Franklin's words were astonishing. Hearing these words, Yiling couldn't help jumping up from his chair with his composure. Zero walked back and forth, and finally stopped and said coldly: "He intends to abandon this planet and us, the lives he created?"
"That's right, the arrival of Proseus gave him hope. As a planet-level super will, he doesn't want to be bound forever in the prison of the earth. He wants to break through the prison and get rid of his 'destiny'. Proseus used himself as proof and told him that it could be done. However, he also saw that without a body, the desire to lose restraint would cause the will of the planet to lose itself, and thus become a monster like Proseus. That kind of The shape is not what Agladis wants, what he wants is to retain his will and at the same time get rid of the shackles of the planet, so a body that can perfectly carry himself is the perfect choice."
"God and Gaia are actually beings created based on this concept, but both have their own flaws, so Agladis gave up. After the battle of Proseus, he himself was also seriously injured. So all plans were stopped, and that’s why you have the Fifth Era.” Franklin said with a wry smile: “We can’t imagine, when Agladis leaves, will the planet be able to function as usual without the will of the planet? Perhaps Like a machine where the program crashes, and eventually the hardware also breaks? At that point, that’s the worst we can do.”
"In this way, the best situation is to let Proseus contain Agladis? But this is a dangerous balance, and both parties may break this balance in an instant, leading to the ultimate destruction. Zero shook his head and said: "This is obviously not a good way, and Proseus, who has no room for negotiation, is more dangerous than Agladis. At least it exists on this planet for a day, and Agladis has to choose to fight with us." Cooperate, otherwise, he too will perish."
"So what are you going to do next?"
"Continue to cooperate with Agladis, with the ultimate goal of annihilating Proseus. If we have the ability to annihilate Proseus in the end, then Agladis will also be afraid of us, and it will be easy to fight and win A lot. And before that, there is no benefit for us to turn against him." Zero replied immediately.
Franklin nodded and said, "This is indeed the only way at present, and I can assure you. I only hope to save my own people. As for the revival of Atlantis..."
The giant smiled wryly: "It's not that I don't have this idea, but that this idea is unrealistic. Now, it's not our time anymore..."
One sentence is full of endless sentimentality.
It was getting late, Zero and Franklin left the office, and went back to their respective residences to rest. Ling's house was the former residence of the mayor. The mayor of Cage City simply kept everything in the residence including the servants intact, but he and his family moved out and lived in a set in the city. in an ordinary house. Because of this, he was treated well and became Franklin's assistant.
When Zero returned to the mayor's mansion, servants took care of him to take a bath and change clothes. When he came to the bedroom, Liya and Cinderella were already waiting for him. The three reunited after a long absence, and because of rushing to have a secret meeting with Paul, Zero had no time for these two women. When I come back now, it's natural that there will be some cloud and rain, and it will be lingering to death. Leah was overwhelmed and fell asleep early.
After covering her with a quilt, Zero and Cinderella continued to fight. Both of them are high-level. Although Cinderella is one level lower in rank, she perfectly makes up for the gap in strength with technology. Cinderella was astonishing both in physical strength and toughness, and her body contained an astonishing explosive power. Even Zero had been killed by her several times, and almost had to surrender.
Fortunately, Zero controlled his rhythm at every critical moment, and finally seized the opportunity to break through Cinderella's defense in one fell swoop, and while sending her to the cloud of bliss, he also sprayed the fiery essence of life into her body, making her excited And happy, hugging Zero tightly like an octopus while falling into a deep sleep.
Zero put down the second daughter and was in a good mood. It's just that when I think of Agladis, my heart is inevitably heavy. Liya, who was woken up by the sound of the two fighting, noticed this carefully, and asked him closely, "What's wrong?"
"You haven't slept yet?" Zero asked in surprise.
Liya blushed and said, "You guys are so fierce, I can't sleep."
Zero reached out and brushed the red pill on her chest, making Lia's whole body soft as if an electric current passed through it. Zero said in her ear: "If you are not enough, we will continue."
Leah lost her voice: "Do you still have the strength?"
Zero patted Cinderella's buttocks and said, "It's not so easy to squeeze me dry now."
Leah hurriedly said: "No, no, I don't have the physical strength of Cinderella, and now I'm exhausted."
Only then did Zero laugh and let her go. Liya asked again, and said with a smile, "It's nothing, it's just that there seem to be more enemies."
What he didn't say was that it was also a formidable enemy.
In the early morning, Ling woke up early, and the two girls were still sleeping soundly. It seems that last night's reunion battle exhausted them, even Cinderella was like this, and Leah was even more unbearable. Zero didn't intend to wake them up, and came to the boot camp by himself. This place was originally used by the Pope's Hall to train recruits in various places, but now it is naturally requisitioned by the Sea God Group.
On the training ground, members of Suzheng Trident were training. It can be seen that Zog has fully integrated into this group. They are dressed in uniform black and silver tactical uniforms, and each of them has four or five spears stuck upside down at their feet. Under Su's order, Zog picked up the spear with one movement, injected energy, and then threw it over. The spear crossed the 300-meter field and hit the bull's-eye, and then exploded, the power of which was no less than that of a high-explosive gun.
Zero nodded secretly, Zog's biggest advantage was his neat movements. It is conceivable that when the target faces their concentrated fire attack, unless it is a high-level defense specialist ability user, other types of ability users can only evade it first. Even Zero himself, before the Well of Weeping Gods, it would be very painful to face multiple high-explosive * concentrated attacks without activating the steel skin.
Su seems to be adjusting the tactics of the Trident, from allowing them to play freely before, to using the simplest method to use their power, and at the same time giving play to the tactics of numerical superiority, it can be seen that this troop finally has Great progress. In fact, in order to take advantage of the ability user troops, it is necessary to use a unified method to carry out concentrated fire attacks, so as to maximize the destructive power.
While watching the Trident training with his arms folded, Franklin found him and reported: "A messenger from Istar has come over, and they should bring a message from Pope Paul and return the money left over from the previous transaction." The final payment of thirty thousand gold coins."
Zero nodded, and returned to the city hall with him.
In the office, the old mayor Alex received a man in his forties. The man was thin and thin, with a pair of gray eyes, a mustache, and the word "treacherous" written on his face. He was a typical image of a profiteer. He wore a green gemstone ring on his little finger, and when he talked with Alex, he turned the ring from time to time. Every time I turn, the eyeballs are always spinning around for a while, obviously thinking about something.
When Zero and Franklin came in, the man pretended to be smart and saluted Franklin: "It's an honor to meet you, respected leader of the Sea God Group, Master Zero."
Franklin said with a sullen face: "You are mistaken, this is our leader."
When Zero came out, the expression on the man's face was wonderful. There is shame, but it is more of an accident. Obviously, Ling's youth and handsomeness are completely different from the rumored image of the invincible leader of the Poseidon group. At this moment, Alex smoothed things over and said: "My lord, this is Mr. Stone, the representative sent by Istar. Mr. Stone has brought Miss Oran's personal letter. Our future cooperation with Istar can be done through Mr Stone proceeds."
Zero nods, it's not surprising. After all, Oran is one of the Big Three, so he really can't do everything by himself. Unless it's important, she can let the people below do it for her. This Stone probably has good ability, otherwise she wouldn't be able to take on this important task.
After the host and guest sat down, Zero said directly: "Mr. Stone came from afar, and I heard that he brought a message from His Highness the Pope?"
After tidying up his clothes, Stone said, "Yes, His Excellency the Pope gave a public speech yesterday in the city of New Rome, pointing out that Nafto Island will be sent by God in the near future, His Highness hopes that Master Zero can realize this agreement with him."
"Please rest assured, Your Highness Paul. Nafto Island will completely disappear under the territory of the Pope's Hall in three days. But excuse me, who are the people on the island?"
"Nafto Island is where Sauron's private army is stationed. It is an army independent of the knight order system. Because it is a military center, there are no ordinary people on the island, and they are all characters under the Sauron system." Tong said truthfully.
"In that case, I can rest assured. After all, if too many civilians are involved, it will be very detrimental to the reputation of His Highness the Pope. If it is only Sauron's army, it can weaken his strength at will."
"His Royal Highness Paul said the same thing." Stone laughed and said, "Since the message has arrived, I will take my leave first. Mr. Alex will also introduce me to the industry and products of Cage City, so that you and I can More smooth cooperation in the future.”
"There is no problem with this, I will let Mr. Alex treat you well." Zero said.
Stone thanked him repeatedly, and when he was about to get up and leave, Ling suddenly said: "One more thing, I would like to ask Mr. Stone, you still have 30,000 gold coins that have not been paid to us. I don't know when the money will be delivered."
Stone laughed and said: "Master Zero said this, it seems that he still doesn't understand some details of the transaction between us. I have worked hard to travel around for you and me, and the hard work is really inhumane. I think Mr. Zero should be sympathetic to me, so it is probably understandable to allocate a part of the transaction to me as an allowance?"
Ling smiled and said: "Mr. Stone's appetite is not too big, how about it, you hand over 30,000 gold coins to us. I will allocate 3,000 gold coins from my personal account as your allowance, and every transaction in the future , I will give you this number, what do you think?"
Stone laughed, and said: "Which transaction between you and me involves millions of dollars in transactions? I don't think it's too much for 30% of the hard work. Mr. Zero suppressed so much at once. I think it's a bit too much." .”
"Excessive?" Zero glanced at Franklin.
The latter immediately stood behind Stone, shrouded in the shadow of the giant, and Stone couldn't help trembling his legs.
Zero sneered: "Stone, I don't care who you are, don't make decisions on me. The transaction between me and Alan cannot tolerate people like you getting in the way. I originally gave you three thousand gold coins to avoid Unnecessary troubles. Since you don’t accept my favor, don’t blame me for being rude. Just force you to stay in our cell for a few days, and I’d like to hear how Oran explains it!”
"You can't treat me like this. I am the representative of Istar. You are not polite to me. Do you still want to cooperate in the future?"
"It's not up to you to talk about the cooperation with Istar, let alone His Royal Highness Paul is asking me. Stone, I think you have miscalculated. Take it down!"
Zero waved his hand, and Franklin lifted Stone up like a chicken, and walked towards the door. Stone was still yelling all the way, but the sound stopped abruptly when he reached the door. Franklin must have given him some trouble.
Zero smiled lightly, this era is rolling forward, a villain like Stone who can't see the situation clearly will only become cannon fodder under the tide of the times!
