Chapter 1 Legion Female Craftsman (Part 2)

The boat Achilles was on was a narrow double-decker rowing boat with a simple ram. In order to distinguish it, a white sail was hung on it. When Calabis's boat got closer, he saw that the ridge of the helmet was A general with white horsehair stretched out his hand to greet him on the deck. Knowing that this must be Achilles, he returned the greeting and climbed up the gangway onto the white ship.

"Your Excellency, please follow me." Achilles politely guided Calabis to the bridge at the stern of the ship (actually a square tower similar to that of a Roman ship). Calabis was still secretly wary at first. , but it’s not scary to think about it. Although Mithridates is a master of conspiracy, he is not willing to deal with a small legion envoy at the cost of ruining his reputation.

In the bridge room, there were scattered curtains and curtains, and a drafting table with a lot of dust on it. It seemed that the ship was completely pulled out temporarily. Then Calabis was surprised to see that in the dim room At the corner, a little man covered in a red cloak was sitting on a seat. He didn't say a word and his appearance couldn't be clearly seen.

Even so, Karabis recognized who the other party was in an instant. He did not say anything, but wiped the drafting table and another chair, then sat down and said this sentence for a long time: "You don't need to use What a trick, before I left, I had already handed over the command of the Acropolis defense to my subordinates.”

The little figure, after being silent for a while, also said something, "You went to Rome with that Potty, right? How is she now?"

"She is very good. I have a son with her." After saying this, Calabis felt a little uneasy. He thought that the princess felt lonely and lonely. She has always been like this, sometimes making people feel pity, sometimes making people feel bored. , sometimes even making people feel angry and disgusted.

Achilles didn't seem to have any intention of peace talks. After he sent the enemy's legion envoy in, he disappeared. The entire bridge room was quiet, and only the monotonous echo of the surrounding waves could be heard. "You don't have to look around anymore." , Amphora, Achilles has left the ship, and this is my only territory now."

Calabis shrugged, indicating that he did not understand the meaning of Adiana's words.

He felt that the scene was a bit boring, and he was not in the mood to continue to spend endless time with this weird princess, so he stood up and was about to open the board window of the bridge room. Unexpectedly, Adiana rushed up and wanted to To stop the amphora from acting, Calabis instinctively grabbed her wrist and pushed her onto the drafting table. Adiana shouted and bumped against the table, scattering the contents on it. on deck.

Although the panel window was not opened, in the dim light, Calabis still saw Adiana's petite back trembling, as if she was crying secretly. He lit a lamp, and the orange soft light suddenly Breaking through the darkness, "Amphora, don't you..." Adiana's begging voice came to her ears.

Under the light, under the chestnut curls, the princess's face was obviously slimmer, and there were still several bruises on the corners of her mouth and cheeks. Calabis didn't say anything, and moved the light downwards. Under the princess's cloak, Her two little feet were bare and she didn't even have shoes. She was very nervous. Calabis looked at her ankles and quickly retracted them, covering them with his cloak. Then she stepped back and sat on the seat again. , lowered his eyebrows.

"Were you beaten by your father?" Karabis' tone was calm.

Adiana nodded.

"Expelled?"

Adiana continued to nod.

"I think your father did these things a little late, and he didn't do them seriously enough." Karabis placed the lamp on the table, placed the glass cover on it, and sat down. Adiana looked up and saw that the amphora was covered with stubble and disheveled hair, so she returned to her mean tone, "Calabis, you should have stayed with me back then, so that you could learn the harp, etiquette and Literary, with a clean face and elegant temperament, wearing a silk robe with gorgeous ruffles, look at you, now you are just a dirty Roman barbarian soldier."

"Following you? Are you now the loser on the white sailboat like you?" Calabis's words were full of sarcasm and ridicule. He looked at Adiana with joy, "This is tragic. I'm afraid that I won't even be able to cook barbecue, and will just become your beautiful toy, and will eventually be used as your burial object and sink into this bay with you. "

"Stop talking, I'm here to negotiate with you!" Adiana also realized that she was at a disadvantage in the current situation and said hurriedly.

"It's a joke. What capital do you have to negotiate with me? Tell me!"

"I have calculated that your Acropolis is almost running out of food. I am familiar with the tactics and camping habits of the Bronze Shield Army, and I can help you escape from the desperate situation, Amphora." Adiana said this nickname subconsciously, Karabi Si raised his finger at her and raised his eyebrows, indicating that he didn't like her title. Adiana quickly changed her words, "Legion envoy - you must consider this suggestion."

"Say please."

"Yes, please, please do consider my suggestion." Adiana said, as if all her strength was exhausted. Her petite body wrapped in a cloak was trembling, and her face was pale and blue. This was an obvious sign of excessive hunger. . Calabis shook his head and stood up again. Adiana thought he was leaving, so she no longer cared about her reserve and rushed forward, wailing and hugging Calabis, "Yes, now I have even lost my mother's little crown." , I have nowhere to go, my father told me, let me leave as much as I want until I find someone I can rely on, you are the only one..." As she spoke, she pulled out the gold pendant and shook it in front of the two of them, " No, maybe, at this moment, I have abandoned the dignity that a princess should have, and I should commit suicide with a tragic face. In Karabi Palace, you have seen me after taking poison. Let me do it again today. I just ask you to restrain yourself. My corpse."

"Okay, you're getting tired of playing this game!" Karabis held her wrist and pulled off her gold pendant, "This was the behavior you had in Xiaoya back then. You treated others as yourself. Like the Jew, this is the reason why Bodie and I ended up together. You are right, I should be honest, but I not only possess her body, I also admire her strength and kindness. !”

"She will not be your wife after all!" Adiana shouted with her last strength, and then held Calabis's face in her hands, "I, I am willing to be your wife, as long as you give up your Roman citizenship , how about we settle in this city? Pompeii will not hurt me. In the summer, we can ride on the yacht with gauze curtains. In the winter, we can hunt in the snowy forest. I will also live for you. Children, like all Roman women, give you three children.”

Calabis glanced at the other party and replied: "Who cares?" Then he pushed the crying princess away, turned around and walked outside.

"Amphora!" The princess's eyes were filled with tears.

"I went to the bilge to find some food!" Karabis said a little irritably. (To be continued.)
