Roman Slave Owner

Chapter 231 The Final Effort

In a military camp north of Rome, after hearing Demetrius' report, Pompey looked in disbelief.

"What did you say? Li Wei showed a miracle, and the entire tower and a large section of the city wall collapsed?"

"Yes, he performed miracles in front of all the soldiers of the 4 legions and hundreds of elders in Capua, all of which I witnessed with my own eyes."

Demetrius said with a look of awe that in this era, both the Greeks and the Romans were very awed by the gods.

But Pompey still didn't believe his words, "Did he hollow out the tower in advance and then find a way to overturn it."

"It's definitely not like this. When the tower collapsed, it made a loud noise like thunder, like the wrath of the gods, and it spread to more than ten miles away. And many stones flew into the air, flying hundreds of steps away .”

said Demetrius.

Pompeo was stunned, what the hell is going on? How could a miracle pop up out of nowhere.

"Levy also said that even if you don't help, he is capable of defeating Rome, and even all enemies."

Demetrius continued.

"What do you think I should do?"

Pompeo asked.

Demetrius didn't answer. He knew that Pompey didn't want to turn against the Senate, but he didn't expect the actions of both the Senate and Li Wei to be so fierce.

"Let's march into Rome first, and we'll see the situation then."

Pompey thought for a while and said.

Now he and Li Wei are grasshoppers on the same rope, and neither can escape.

If Li Wei can show a miracle in front of him, he doesn't mind helping Li Wei.

Looking at the uncertain Pompey, Demetrius sighed, probably only he knew Pompey's jealousy towards Li Wei, if Li Wei couldn't prove himself, maybe Pompey would betray Li Wei.

While they were chatting, the whole of Rome was boiling. Under the vigorous publicity of the "Roman Daily", they knew that Li Wei performed a miracle in Dragon City, and then led 4 legions to march into Rome in the name of the oracle. At this time, many talents Note that Livy was also a prophet of the Holy Cult, although this religion had little influence in Rome.

Some senators were so excited that they strongly demanded that Livi be declared an enemy of the state immediately, but they failed because of the desperate opposition of Serabio and others.

In Crassus' villa, Luculus is persuading Crassus.

"Crasu, I think you should support Li Wei. Now the country is in a war again. As long as you change your mind, you can completely eliminate this war."

Luculus said.

He has persuaded Crassus for a few days, but Crassus never let go.

After the news of Li Wei's march into Rome came, he became even tougher.

Crassus felt that Li Wei was becoming more and more like a fool. Did he think he was Sura? Even Sulla recruited more than a dozen legions before he dared to march into Rome!

As for any miracles, how could this be possible? It was a complete fool.

"It's impossible. You don't know how arrogant Serabio was at that time. He even threatened me."

Crassus said angrily.

"It's just a little grievance,

This is nothing compared to the losses suffered by the people. "

Luculus persuaded earnestly.

"It's too late now, do you think he can win?"

Crassus said disdainfully.

Lucullus admitted that he was right. Due to weapons restrictions, Rome only recruited 10 legions, but there is absolutely no problem with these 10 legions defending Rome.

Judging from the current situation, the possibility of Li Wei winning is very small, and he seems to be in a desperate situation, unless there is really a miracle in this world.

At this moment, a slave rushed in.

"Master, the legion led by Li Wei has arrived outside Rome."

"Really? You're asking for your own death."

Crassus said coldly.

"He sent people into Rome and invited the Senate to send people tomorrow to see the mighty power of the true God. He especially said that he hopes you can go there. This is his best effort for peace."

The slave continued.

"What did you say? The power of the true god?"

Crassus and Luculus spoke almost simultaneously.

"That's right, it's spread all over the city now."

Crassus and Luculus couldn't help but look at each other. Could it be that Li Wei is really so confident?

This matter spread quickly, and Li Wei declared that the true god would perform miracles outside the city, and if Rome refused, the true god would destroy the city of Rome.

Many people sneered at this, but Rome was blessed by Jupiter and other gods, so how could that true god destroy Rome so easily.

However, Annius still convened a senate assembly and called on the senate to send a delegation to witness the mighty power of the true God.

At the insistence of Serabio and others, the Senate finally decided to send a 10-member delegation.

The sky in Rome today is covered with dark clouds, and Li Wei's complexion is like the sky, looking extraordinarily gloomy.

If he could, he really didn't want to take this step, because it would probably follow in Caesar's footsteps, so he decided to make one last effort for peace.

Lucias and others looked at Li Wei with admiration, because today Li Wei's family showed another miracle.

Since the last miracle, almost everyone who saw it became a fanatical believer in the holy religion, and Lucias was no exception.

"Report to the general, General Pompey is here."

At this time, a soldier came in and said.

"Please come quickly."

Levi said.

Soon Pompey came in with some guards. Pompey's face was a little haggard, and it seemed that he had not had a good time.

"Li Wei, are you really going to perform a miracle today?"

Pompeo asked.

"Yes, if the Senate resists the oracle, then the true god will destroy Rome."

Li Wei said with a serious face.

"Still the same as that day?"

"That's right, enough power to destroy everything."

Pompey still had some difficulty believing Li Wei's words, and some miracles did happen in Rome. But those miracles were mostly visions, not some devastating violence.

But seeing that Li Wei is so persistent, he is willing to wait and see.

The two chatted for a short time. Then another guard came to report.

"Report to the General. A delegation from the Senate has come to see you."

"Come on, let's go out to meet you."

Levi said.

Pompey nodded, and then left the camp with Li Wei.

Soon they found Serabio, Crassus, Dumigius and other 10 elders standing outside the gate of the camp.

This disappointed Li Wei. Only such a small number of people would greatly reduce the influence of miracles.

If more than a hundred senators can come, then the holy religion is likely to conquer the entire senate.

Crassus looked at Li Wei with a little disdain. Originally, he admired Li Wei very much and thought he was an outstanding man of his generation, but now it seems that he is just a pretender.

"Li Wei, I advise you to admit your mistake to the Senate and quickly disband the army. Otherwise, messing with the oracle will be a capital offense."

Dumigios said hypocritically.
