Chapter 846 828. Containment
“It seems I can trust you to help.”
Putting the two flower branches in his hands back into the soil of the clay vase, Lan En clapped his hands. The dirt on it, to put it lightly.
At this moment, Cassandra was somewhat relieved from the high physical exertion caused by the Ankh Cross, and she stood upright with her hands on her knees.
Put your fingers into the ring on the top of the Ankh Cross and twist it around like a keychain.
If you are a devout believer, you will definitely be shocked or even horrified if you see someone treating the artifact so frivolously.
But Cassandra has come into contact with too many artifacts, and has even directly come into contact with the ancient forge left by the Isu.
In mythology, this is basically equivalent to directly entering the temple of Hephaestus, the god of fire.
And each upgrade of Cassandra's Broken Spear has to be done once, just like going home.
So even in this era of strong religious atmosphere, Cassandra can still maintain a relaxed attitude towards things about the Isu people.
After all, being exposed to too much and being too advanced is equivalent to ‘disenchantment’.
She spoke as she twirled the Ankh on her finger.
"Then let's start now?"
Although she wasn't quite sure what Lan En was going to do, after using this Isu artifact, she felt that it was quite simple to use. , so very confident.
At this time, Lan En raised his hand to express his refusal.
"No, wait a little longer."
What will be put into the body this time is the first step of the Primaris surgery, [Song Gland]. And this process needs to be put directly into the brain.
This is the first time Lan En has undergone brain-enhancing surgery.
In the experience gained from [Memory Diving], usually after this operation, the brain will be temporarily disabled due to a huge impact.
And it also takes time for the brain to independently build control links with new organs.
The potential and functionality of the brain are amazing. Even if a relatively primitive implanted chip is used to add the control ability of a robot to a normal human body, the brain will automatically generate new nerves during long-term use due to the access of 'new parts'. Yuan to build a 'control system'.
As for the implantation of enhanced organs such as the [Song Gland], it is not even necessary to establish a 'control system'.
So it is very different from the previous enhancements. It is impossible to just drink [Pure White Rafad] in large gulps after surgery and be done.
It will definitely take a while, but I don’t know how long.
That’s why Lan En told Cassandra not to rush. He wanted to complete the operation while ensuring safety after the situation in Athens calmed down a little.
"Oh, you're not in a hurry, are you?"
Cassandra smiled playfully.
"Aspasia seemed to have arranged a guest room for us just now?"
"Yes." Lan En nodded naturally at first, then seemed to suddenly realize something was wrong, turned his head and looked Cassandra. "Wait! What do you mean?"
Before the witcher could react, the falconer pinned one of his hands and walked towards the guest room.
After strengthening her bloodline several times with the Broken Spear, Cassandra's power was strong enough even for Lan.
"I have endured it for a long time, Lan En."
With a playful smile on her face, she leaned close to Lan En's ear, who was forced to bend down.
“If you want me to work, you have to make me ‘fed’ and ‘paid,’ right? I’m a mercenary, and I don’t do anything at a loss.”
"So you're going to do it in broad daylight. Well, you Greeks don't care much about day and night. But can you wait until the door is closed before unbuckling your armor? Someone will see you!" "So what? ?”
The beauty born in the Aegean Sea of ancient Greece showed a very incomprehensible expression on Lan En's 'care'.
“Although I don’t want you to be like Alcibiades, who is full of lust all the time, but you are too conservative now. Sex and love are not bad things. They are natural, beautiful and sacred. "
"Let me teach you. I learned it at the Temple of Aphrodite in Corinth during this period!"
Kassandra showed her narrow-mindedness. Smile.
——
Afterwards, although Kassandra's voice almost spread throughout the mansion, neither the servants nor anyone else in the mansion expressed anything about it.
On the one hand, this is because this situation was very common in ancient Greece, and on the other hand, it is because people like Alcibiades who are more playful live here.
It totally makes everyone feel weird.
Although Pericles, as an Athenian politician, could not use his huge property arbitrarily for the sake of political image, he was extremely capable of entertaining Lane and Cassandra, and he did not It is still very easy to belong to a capable person.
In this era, this kind of thing is common in both the East and the West. In the East, it is called "recruiting customers", and in the West, it is called "providing asylum."
In short, it means taking care of someone without expecting anything in return. Even if you still can't recruit someone in the end, you still have a friendship.
What's more, Lan En also gave out the procedures for suppressing the plague in the city of Athens. In terms of credit, he can be regarded as an advisor to the consul.
Kassandra seems to have been to Athens many times in the past year and a half and done many things. She was very respected by Pericles.
Aspasia entrusted her with persuading Pericles to receive treatment rather than give up and wait for death.
She went and the persuasion was successful. But Pericles' condition did not ease, and he was already old.
And now he is not only suffering from the plague, but Cleon is also giving a speech in front of his house, deceiving the angry people into yelling and throwing garbage at Pericles' mansion.
Even if there had been no plague, Pericles would have been mad to death at his age.
After all, this is the Athenian he has served his whole life.
No matter how much Athens under his leadership destroyed allied city-states, at least the Athenians did receive his loyal service.
But now, very few people remember this.
This may also be Cleon's plan: to simply make Pericles angry to death, and then he can take over.
On the other hand, Pericles' staff has indeed begun to act according to the plan given by Lane.
They mobilized Athens' finances, began to set up furnaces for burning wormwood in the streets, and piled and cremated the corpses of the sick who had been seen everywhere in the city of Athens.
The stray animals that appeared in the city due to the plague also began to be hunted down in batches.
These are all meant to cut off infection.
The temperature in Athens this year is almost approaching 40 degrees Celsius, which facilitates the spread of germs.
But once the temperature is raised further, the activity of the bacteria will drop significantly.
As for Alcibiades, it was exactly as Lan En expected.
He is now seizing the opportunity, and is preparing to rely on Pericles' legacy and the opportunity of this plague to officially enter the political stage of Athens.
This is more than ten years earlier than his appearance in history.
