Roman Slave Owner

Chapter 319 Guards

"This is absolutely impossible! A word in the "Holy Code" cannot be changed."

Li Wei shook his head.

"Is it really unchangeable?"

"One word cannot be changed!"

Li Wei said very firmly.

"As long as you are willing to let the true god integrate into the Greek pantheon, we are willing to make you a member of the gods."

said Demosthenes.

Hearing this, Li Wei almost laughed out loud.

It is absurd for mortals to be worshiped as gods in later generations, but it is very common in this era.

After defeating pirates and expeditions to the East, Pompey was worshiped as a god by many people. Egyptian pharaohs were also worshiped as gods. In the Roman Empire, many emperors were worshiped as gods after death as long as they did not make major mistakes during their lifetime.

But Li Wei knew that this kind of thing didn't make any sense.

Time has washed everything away, and no one in the future will regard them as gods. On the contrary, Jesus and another person have had an extremely profound impact on future generations. Of course, he will not choose the path of becoming a god.

"I'm sorry, I refuse."

Li Wei said very decisively.

Demosthenes was amazed at his refusal, for few would resist such a temptation.

He persuaded for a while, but Li Wei was very determined, and finally had no choice but to leave here.

Before leaving, he told Li Wei that he could go to him anytime as long as he was willing to change his mind.

After Si Ti left, Li Wei asked, "What happened to the Senate today?"

"Actually, it's nothing. It's just that he went to the Senate to read the oracle, and then Sidigus became arrogant, claiming to investigate your case thoroughly."

Serabio said.

"I really don't know how to live or die."

Li Wei couldn't help but said.

If he hadn't suppressed his own killing intent, the intelligence team could have easily killed him hundreds of times, but the thorough investigation of Sidiousus was also a headache for him.

"Does this matter affect us a lot?"

Serapio said worriedly.

"Don't worry, it won't have any effect. Didn't you see how cowardly he was just now?"

Li Wei said disdainfully, "But let our people be more restrained, and don't make any excessive moves against Sidhigus recently, so as not to provoke a rebound from the Roman Catholic Church. Time is on our side, we just need to wait slowly. We will win in the end."

"That's good."

Serabio finally breathed a sigh of relief, and he was still a little worried about confronting the Temple of Delphi rashly.

The oracle of Delphi made Sidious ecstatic, and it also had a great impact on the believers of the Holy Cult.

Some devout believers scolded the Temple of Delphi, which caused some conflicts with Apollo believers, but these conflicts quickly disappeared under Li Wei's suppression.

On the Mars Square outside Rome, the Citizens' Assembly is being held and it is decided to pronounce the sentence on Napos' case.

A judge glanced at the sky, and then solemnly announced: "Due to the ominous omen, this trial has been postponed."

Hearing this, the people who came here booed bursts, and then they could only leave one after another, but Napos wiped off his cold sweat, fortunately the delay was postponed.

Li Wei shook his head, and then left here with Serapio.

"It seems that Metellus is still not sure."

Li Wei said with a smile.

"He knows that you have mobilized many believers, so naturally he dare not judge lightly."

Serabio said, "Neppos' case is difficult to settle in a short period of time. What about Sidigus suing you?"

Li Wei felt helpless for a while, and Sidhigus really lingered. Although Li Wei once again controlled the Senate, Sidhigus decided to submit the matter to the court.

"I'm not going to court."

Levi said.

"Then what are you going to do?"

"Leave Rome and return to Dragon City."

Levi said.

Serapio suddenly felt a burst of sadness, and Li Wei finally made the same choice as Scipio did back then, why couldn't the Romans be more lenient to their heroes.

"The retreat is for a better attack, and Spartacus has been raging in the south. I don't worry about Dragon City, where I have all my industries."

Levi said.

"There is nothing to worry about. I will eliminate them soon. In fact, I have been studying military books all these years."

Serabio said.

It is because of you that you are worried, Li Wei couldn't help complaining.

But he still didn't say it, so as not to irritate him.

"Don't worry, I will come back sooner or later, and I will surprise them on that day."

Levi said.

"When are you going to leave Rome?"

"I intend to leave Rome with your army."

"That's great, I just happened to ask you some military questions."

"no problem."

"By the way, if we all leave, who will lead our elders?"

Levi thought for a while, this is indeed a very important question.

The senators under him really need a leader, otherwise they are in disarray.

"How about Cicero?"

Li Wei thought for a while and said.

"Cicero, why him?"

Serapio said in surprise.

Cicero was inconspicuous among them, even marginal, because he was not Livy's retainer.

Li Wei smiled wryly, it wasn't because of the lack of talents among his retainers, and it was a last resort to use Cicero.

After so many years of training, Cicero is not bad at least in terms of ability.

At this moment, Metellus appeared in front of them.

"Levy, can we talk in private?"

Li Wei and Serapio smiled at each other, he finally couldn't sit still.

"no problem."

Li Wei and Metellus walked to an empty corner. The wrinkles on Metellus's face deepened, and there were still some dark circles under his eyes. It was obvious that these days were not easy.

"Li Wei, how about we make a deal? I'll tell Sidigus to give up suing you, and let you let Napos go."

Metellus said.

Li Wei shook his head, "That's not okay. Even if Sidious gave up the prosecution, it still caused great damage to the reputation of me and the Holy Church. This deal is unfair."

"Then how can you let Napos go?"

Metellus said.

"Metellus, I have always hoped to live in peace with the Roman Catholic Church. I don't know if we still have this possibility?"

Levi asked.

Metellus almost laughed out loud, Levi took him for an idiot.

Looking at Metellus' expression, Li Wei knew that he could not achieve his goal.

That's all, since you insist on fighting the Holy Cult to the end, then let's have a showdown.

"I heard you asked the Temple of Delphi to declare the Holy Cult a cult?"

Li Wei said with a smile.

"……Yes."

Metellus said that in his capacity, there was no need to lie about such matters.

"Since you have done such a thing and are unwilling to live in peace with us, then prepare for my revenge."

Li Wei said with a sneer.

"Li Wei...can't the family be hurt?"

Metellus said angrily.

"I am a person who longs for peace, and I don't want to meet others in life or death. Remember, whenever you want to live in peace with the Holy Church, you can come to me at any time."

Li Wei said, and left here after speaking.

Seeing Li Wei's leaving back, Metellus' face became cloudy, but he didn't step forward to stop him in the end.

Li Wei sighed, he couldn't cry without seeing the coffin.

Li Wei decided to leave Rome, the news shocked many people.

They seem to have seen the reincarnation of history. At the beginning, Scipio was forced to leave Rome, but today it was Li Wei.

Sidhigus and the others cheered, as if they had won a battle.

But they soon discovered that something was wrong. A large number of people flocked to their home and yelled at them.

Outside the city of Rome, a legion of Roman soldiers was ready to march south to Spartacus.

In addition, there is a large group of crusaders, who are Li Wei's escort.

Looking at the city of Rome in the distance, Emilia's eyes were full of anger, while comforting Li Wei.

"Don't be angry, the people support you."

Li Wei smiled slightly, "Don't worry, I'm not as uncomfortable as you think. The people of Rome will feel the wrath of the true God. One day, I will return to Rome, and the people of Rome will welcome me warmly."

"I trust you."

Emilia said.

"Cicero, I will leave the affairs of Rome to you. I will let them listen to you. If there is anything that cannot be dealt with, you can write to me."

Livy said to Cicero.

Cicero was very excited at this moment, he never thought that he could become the leader of Li Wei's line.

Does this mean that he is expected to become consul?

"Please rest assured, I promise to take care of things here."

Cicero said.

The faces of the elders were all different. They never thought that Li Wei would let Cicero be their temporary leader.

After bidding farewell to the elders, Serabio put on a red cape like a coach, and said excitedly: "Let's go."

The two armies merged together, and then slowly headed south.

In Dragon City School, Li Wei was walking around the training ground with old Annius, Glius, Plautus and others.

On this training ground, a large number of students are undergoing military training.

He had been back for two days, and the overall situation in Dragon City was stable, so he came to inspect Dragon City School in person, and at the same time visited the first batch of students who graduated from Dragon City.

"The Crusaders have recruited another legion and are currently receiving training in the Dragon City barracks. With this legion, the residents of Dragon City are relieved."

said old Annius.

"Why, are they also worried about Spartacus?"

Li Wei said with a smile.

"Yes, Spartacus and the others are really amazing. They even defeated two Roman armies."

Old Annius said, "The number of them has increased recently, and the towns around Pompeii have been attacked by them. Among them are your disciples, so they all came to us for help, which made the residents of Dragon City very worried."

"We really can't underestimate them."

Levi said.

Morris glanced at him quietly, and couldn't help curling his lips.

"The crusaders of two legions are far from enough, add three more legions."

Li Wei thought for a while and said.

Next year, Spartacus's rebel army will grow to 100,000. For the safety of Dragon City, it is necessary to recruit more troops. It is absolutely impossible to make the mistake of pirates attacking the city.

"Is five legions too many? Why do we need so many troops?"

Old Annius said doubtfully.

"The true god told me that Spartacus is not a simple person, he will bring disaster to Rome."

Levi said.

Everyone looked at him in shock, how is this possible? He was just the leader of a slave rebel.

Even if they have 10,000 people now, Rome has defeated hundreds of thousands of enemy troops. What disaster can these 10,000 slaves bring to Rome?

An inexplicable brilliance flashed in Lucias' eyes. He still remembered what Li Wei said when he gave Spartacus to Quintus.

Morris suddenly realized, is this the reason? Just why not kill him, is it true God's will.

"What did the true God say?"

asked old Annius.

"You can't say it, you can't say it."

Li Wei shook his head and said.

Old Annius couldn't help curling his lips, Li Wei was still the same, always mysterious.

Soon they came to a rostrum, and more than 300 students under the rostrum were wearing armor, holding shields and short swords, and were undergoing various assassination training.

"These are the oldest cohort of students, all of them are 16 years old and will be graduating next year."

Plautus introduced.

A smile appeared on Li Wei's face. He had adopted so many orphans back then, and finally he could harvest a wave of leeks.

"How many are there?"

"There are 245 boys and 53 girls. Among them, 235 boys fully meet our requirements and can become junior officers."

said Plautus.

"In this case, let them form a separate army, called the Guards, and don't mix with those Dragon City guards."

Li Wei thought for a while and said, "In the future, all my personal guards will be served by the guards."

Everyone looked at Li Wei in surprise, he trusted these young people enough.

"It's their honor."

said Plautus.

At this time, those students also noticed Li Wei's arrival, stopped under the instructor's command, and saluted neatly.

"Long live the owner!"

"Long live the owner!"

"Long live the owner!"

"..."

The loud slogans resounded throughout the playground, making Li Wei's smile even bigger.

He waved his hand happily, he finally had an army he could trust completely.

Below Mount Vesuvius, the former Roman military camp became the camp of the slave rebels.

Since the uprising army for slaves has exceeded 10,000 people, the size of the barracks has been expanded repeatedly.

At this time, Spartacus frowned, and Rome asked the consul to lead an army of legions to encircle and suppress, which made him nervous again.

Although Serabio hadn't fought many battles, his two lieutenants had been battle-hardened and should not be underestimated.

At this moment, a soldier ran over.

"Boss, we have captured a Roman spy. He said his name is Aetius, and he was ordered by the consul Serabio to discuss with you about Sarah."

"Aetius, it's him?"

Hearing this, the past that had been dusty for an unknown number of years reappeared in his mind.

Thinking of the catastrophe caused by innocence at the beginning, it is really embarrassing to think about it now.
