Nova Roma

Chapter 346

All citizens could see a great light in the sky; the light was a beautiful yellow color that, despite having an intense glow, does not hurt the eyes of the people who looked at it.


The light could be seen by Hercules, Apollo, and Susanoo, who were in the middle of the Caribbean Sea as they advanced with the construction of the bridge.


"I guess we lost the compet.i.tion, but I refuse to end this way, hard times demand desperate measures, it would be better if you take distance I will show you why I am the G.o.d of the arts."


Hercules backed down with Susanoo to see what Apollo was going to do.


Apollo took a deep breath, and a laurel wreath appeared in his hands, which he placed on his head.


Immediately that the crown touched the hair of Apollo, the time stopped, and the eyes of Apollo turned yellow.


From his hands appeared a sword which he held with his left hand and buried it in the land of the island.


A significant tremor was felt all over the place, and from all the empty islands, great pillars emerged, which seemed to be made of volcanic stone.


Which began to transform into a kind of beautiful marble, this modification also began to modify the parts of the bridge that were already built.


Susanoo turned to see Hercules "Why if he could do this, he didn"t do it from the beginning, we could have finished before."


Hercules ducked his head and pointed to where the light was on the horizon. "Because a few hours ago, that light was not there.


Not to mention that you two are in a state of intoxication, I suppose that like Apollo, you have some ability or you want to lose to Apollo. "


Susanoo started laughing and clenched his fists as he walked to the side of Apollo "Nice skills Apollo, but I felt that the bridge is getting a bit weak.


Let me help you reinforce it. "


Susanoo started screaming as his muscles grew, unlike Apollo"s elegance, Susanoo"s power was wild but functional.


The divine energy of Susanoo creates some tentacles who began to grow out of the water from the sea and reinforce all the pillars of the great bridge.


While this happening the tentacles leave a silhouette in every place they move as if they were ornaments made of stone, the tentacles continued to travel and reinforce each part of the bridge.


Even without the enchantments to reinforce it, the bridge by itself would be able to withstand the most dangerous storm and the most extreme earthquake.


Apollo did not want to be left behind, so he began to use his power more forcefully, creating some sculptures of naked women to decorate the bridge.


But Susanoo only saw these actions as simple, he uses the same tentacles to modify the statues of Apollo had made and force them to take different forms.


As if they were plasticine figures, Susanoo began to give them some completely different poses that gave the appearance that statues of women were alive.


The folds of the clothes and the hair in the stone gave the statues a human form that turned the bridge into a work of art and engineering that would doubt for millennia.


Apollo and Susanoo continued adding details to the bridge, improving some things, modifying others completely, transforming the bridge into a real Wonder.


But this took its toll on the G.o.ds because after some time and without warning, Apollo and Susanoo collapsed on the ground.


Because their bodies could not withstand the constant use of a large amount of divine energy for a prolonged period.


Hercules who was enjoying the beauty of the bridge could only place his hand on his face after Apollo and Susanoo pa.s.sed out


With little care, he charged them both and started running towards Insulae Canibalium to take them to a place where they could rest.


They had created a large, st.u.r.dy bridge with great details, but the real problem was that the section they created was only half.


It was still necessary to create the bridge that will connect the province of Insulae Canibalium with the Patria peninsula to finish the wonder.


But Hercules knew that this was a good thing because it would allow the Legionaries to move to Insulae Canibalium, where they would be prepared once the bridge to the Patria peninsula was finished.


When Flavio and the other G.o.ds advanced from the interoceanic ca.n.a.l to the Pontem Forum (bridge of the G.o.ds)


They were surprised when they reached the bridge and could see with their eyes the beauty of that bridge.


Details in each corner, even on the right side of the bridge, were a relief of drawings that told the story of the arrival of the Romans towards the American continent.


The left side had no detail because it would be the area from where the enchantment would be made that would turn the bridge into wonder and a regulator for the G.o.ds.


Quetzalcoatl looked at Flavio, Amaterasu, and Zeus strangely, "Since when they three can do something so beautiful."


Zeus laughed as he carefully a.n.a.lyzed one of the statues of a woman with open arms while only using a cloth to cover her body.


"This is the work of Apollo, but he received help, I know my son Hercules and his artistic abilities leave much to be desired. this should have been created together with Susanoo."


Amaterasu held his nose with some grief. "You are not mistaken Zeus; this was created with his help only he could make a statue of a woman riding a half-naked horse with only a towel covering her b.r.e.a.s.t.s.


It is fantastic art, but I think it was exceeded a bit with the detail of the statues, but it will be the duty of mortals to judge this construction.


Our duty is just to make it a wonder, Flavio I would like you to get ahead with Quetzalcoatl and Zeus to help where it is needed.


Since once we start with the enchantments, there will be no way to stop until everything is complete. "


Flavio nodded, but before walking on the bridge, he asked Hermes to take orders to the Alpha and Beta legion to head towards Insulae Canibalium as they would now have to defend the bridge that led to the homeland peninsula for any possible threat.


Hermes nodded and left for the Origin Civitatem to bring the news.
