Extra Chapter 1: Once Upon a Time in Rome
"Captain, something is wrong here." A black man looked at everything in front of him, and a layer of cold sweat appeared on his forehead.
"Something is indeed wrong..."
The captain was called a white officer in his early thirties named Rogers, and there were several people around him, including white, black, and yellow.
These people were fully armed and held various guns, but when they saw all this in front of them, it was difficult for the guns in their hands to give them a sense of security.
In front of them was a huge city, with pedestrians and vehicles coming and going on the road. These people looked at these people in strange clothes standing on the side of the road with curiosity, guessing what ethnic group these people were and what equipment they were holding.
"We should be in Asia, why did we suddenly get here?
Also, what is this city?
Are we hypnotized or…”
Rogers took a deep breath and waved his hand, "Find a place to hide first, grab a few tongues and ask where this place is.
[To be honest, I have been using wild fruit reading to read books and follow updates recently, changing sources and switching, and pronunciation aloud for many tones, www. Android and Apple are available.]
Dussa, Bar, you go get some food, we don't have much supplies.
Start acting!”
“YAS,SIR!!”
A mill that was unwilling to be a temporary stronghold by Rogers, and they quickly grabbed a few gorgeously dressed people as their tongues.
But soon, they found that what these people said was strange.
"Captain, they seem to be speaking Latin...but it's not quite the same."
Fortunately, their team is the elite among the elites, and each of them can speak several languages. Finally, a sergeant Fran, whose ancestors came from Sicily, heard some clues.
"Can you understand?" Rogers asked.
"I'll try it. He seems to be speaking a Latin dialect, and some of them are so simple that they can only be found on the parchment rolls." Fran made crazy gestures while talking to these tongues.
Well, this is indeed an Italian guy.
"Captain..." Fran opened his mouth slightly, looking at everyone in disbelief and said, "We are now... in Rome!"
"Nonsense! I've been to Rome, and it's definitely not here!" Rogers immediately scolded.
"This is Rome, it is Rome after the Five Sages came to power!"
....
"Five Sages Emperors???"
Although Rogers had no interest in history, he also knew what the Five Sages were.
He was the Roman ruler from the first to the second centuries AD.
Could it be...
"How many years are it now?"
"If I remember correctly in the fourth year of Commod's reign, it should be 183 AD!"
Everyone looked at each other. They couldn't understand why they came to Rome more than 1,800 years ago when they were here to destroy China's Secret Research Institute.
That institute...what is studying?
Rogers swallowed, and he knew what he had to do as the captain.
"Who are they?"
"They were the managers of the nearby farms. The landlords in the Roman era usually lived in the city, and the farmers outside the city were managed by the managers." Fran explained, "I have studied ancient history and know a little about the history of this period."
"Then tell us what's going on in Rome now?"
"The chaos is imminent. Although the Five Sages before Commod ruled Rome well, Commod was very fragile. Although he had experienced a good education in his early years, he was unwilling to assume the duties of Caesar after his sister assassinated him for 182 years, that is, last year, and he was unwilling to assume the duties of Caesar and began to indulge in fun.
According to history, Great Britain will rebel next year, and then the Senate began to plan the assassination of his dissatisfaction, and finally Commod was assassinated and died in the bathhouse in 192 AD.
Then, Rome began a century of civil strife. Although there was the Severus dynasty behind it, internal struggles continued. Finally, in 330, Rome was abandoned and moved to Byzantium. Later, the Visigoths occupied Rome.
It can be said that now is the historical key point of Rome's prosperity and decline."
"Hahahahahaha!"
Rogers laughed wildly while covering his face.
"I understand! I understand!
This is God's guidance!
This is God’s miracle!!
Everyone, have you heard it?
Now is the critical moment when Rome goes from prosperity to decline!
Why did we get here at such a critical time?
This is because God wants us to change history!
Change the history of Rome from prosperity to decline!!
Everyone, think about it, why the gospel of the Lord has never been spread throughout the world!
It is because Rome has declined from prosperity! If Rome can continue to grow strong and expand continuously, then the Middle East, Africa, India, and even China in the Far East will become places for the Lord of Faith!
It must be like this! It must be like this!!!”
Everyone present listened to Rogers' explanation and nodded to each other.
This is indeed the only explanation.
Otherwise, why would they travel through 1,800 years to Rome?
"That..." Fran raised his hand awkwardly and said, "Christianity has not been recognized by Rome yet. We have to wait for the Milan Edict for more than a hundred years before Christianity will be legal in Rome..."
“That’s even more right!
The Lord must have seen his believers suffering in Rome, and also saw the distant future. His gospel cannot be spread throughout the world. There are even atheists who do not believe in any God and all evil appear in the East!
Everyone, this is God’s will. Our goal is clear and clear, that is, to lead Rome, let the Lord’s gospel spread throughout Rome as soon as possible, and then spread eastward, all the way to China and Japan!
Everything is for the Lord!”
"Everything is for the Lord!!"
Several sergeants present shouted.
Several Roman officials kneeling on the ground looked at these people cheering and cheering as they spoke, and couldn't help but look at each other.
These people...is it okay?
"Captain, what should we do now?"
Rogers looked at Fran and said, "You just said, will there be a rebellion in Great Britain last year?"
"In fact, it has happened. The Isle of Great Britain is lonely overseas. In this era, it was a wild place. The local indigenous people have been dissatisfied with Roman rule and have continued to revolt.
There is now a legion fighting on the Isle of Great Britain, but their legion commander Prisccus is very ambitious. He wants to rely on the terrain of Great Britain to be the king.
Next year, Prisccus will rebel under the support of the sergeant and be Caesar."
"What's behind?"
"Oh, now the power of Rome is in the hands of Perennis, the commander of the Guards. He will lead his army to suppress the rebellion, and then he will be executed by Commod."
"This is our chance!" Rogers waved "Let's go to France, oh, should we call Gaul now?
We went there to pull out a team and waited for Perennis to arrive.
At that time, as long as we make military contributions, we will be able to gain military power, and then slowly control the entire Rome!"
Control the entire Rome.
Everyone could not help laughing when they imagined their lives after controlling Rome.
Whether the Lord’s gospel can be spread is second-hand, and everyone can live a life of immortality in this era.
