Chapter 3 So I Have a System, Too

The city of Pella is the capital of the Kingdom of Macedonia. It is the most important heart city of the kingdom, both historically and in this strange world.

There are nearly [-] residents living in the city of Pella. She has a tall city wall surrounding the entire city. The city wall is seven meters high and four meters wide, with numerous arrow towers. It is the most majestic and strongest city on the Ogre Peninsula. As long as With enough soldiers, the city can stand firm even if it is attacked by an enemy force dozens of times larger than the defenders.

Although the city of Pella is located on the Ogrell Peninsula where the barbarians are full of people, the long, tall and majestic Pella Mountains can keep the barbarians out, and the break between the mountains, which looks like an ax cut, was built by King Philip. The castle firmly blocked the only way for the outside world to enter the Macedonian Plain. As long as the Macedonian army could hold the pass named Thermopylae, the city of Pella and the civilians living on the Macedonian Plain would be protected from war.

According to the memory of this body, Antigonus can know that the recorded population of the Kingdom of Macedonia is more than 3000 people, among which there are more than 8000 Greek nobles who are self-proclaimed nobles, and more than 2 citizens who are the mainstay of the kingdom, not citizens. There are more than 5000 free citizens, and there are nearly [-] foreigners who belong to the floating population.

"Your Majesty, why don't you leave?" At this moment, a voice came from behind, interrupting Antico's thoughts and pulling him back to reality.

Antigonus subconsciously turned his head to look, and it turned out to be his captain of the guard, Kronos. He met Kronos' gaze, nodded slightly, and said, "It's nothing, let's go."

After the words fell, he drove the horse towards the gate of Pella City.

Antico's group quickly attracted the attention of other people on Broad Stone Avenue. Passers-by looked at the leader Antico and quickly recognized his identity. Although Antico had tidied up hastily, his body was torn His robes were not changed, coupled with the shocking bloodstains, it made people think about it, and the whole avenue was full of discussions about him for a while.

Kronos wanted to order them to disperse, but was stopped by Antigonus. He didn't care about these people. The only thing he cared about now was how to face Empress Euphemia after returning.

This is very likely to be the suspect behind the scenes.

Outside the city gate, two Macedonian hoplites armed with round shields and spears looked at Antigonus approaching in surprise, and hurriedly saluted him. Antigonus nodded slightly and controlled his horse to move on. The reason why he had learned equestrianism specifically, so he didn't have any difficulties when riding a horse.

More than ten minutes later, Antigonus and his guards entered the Vagina Palace. Before he had time to change his clothes, Antigonus received a notice from Empress Ophelia to meet him. Considering the current The situation was unclear, so it was better not to contradict this "Empress Cixi", so he simply washed his face, and then followed his attendants to Empress Ophelia's bedroom.

I don't know if it was an illusion, but Antigonus always felt that the attendant looked at him with disdain.

……

"His Royal Highness, His Majesty the King has arrived."

Outside Euphemia's bedroom, the attendant shouted in a shrill voice, which made Antigono's skin crawl. After he finished speaking, a mature female voice sounded from inside, "Let him come in."

"Your Majesty, please."

With the order, the attendant bowed slightly and made a gesture of please. Although his eyes were downcast, Antigon could still see the flash of contempt in his eyes. Antigon gritted his teeth, knowing that it was not a conflict When he was there, he ignored him and just pushed the door open and walked in.

There was a faint fragrance in Euphemia's bedroom, and the furnishings here were not luxurious, even worse than Antigonus' bedroom.

Antigonus looked around, and soon saw Euphemia Asia Pacific in front of a round table. She was wearing a white Greek-style robe with only a few gold threads as decorations. Her long black curly hair was pulled up high, very Obvious woman's hairstyle, her face is long, with high nasal bone and small nose, a pair of brown eyes looking at Antigonus without emotion, as if looking at a stranger.

Antico was a little puzzled, he was her son, even if she wanted to usurp his position, she shouldn't look at strangers with that kind of eyes, could there be something else hidden?
Confused, Antigonus still bowed his head respectfully and called, "Mother."

"Humph."

In response to him was a cold snort, Antico's face froze, but he quickly returned to normal, raised his head again, stood upright, and looked at his cheap mother.

"Antico." Euphemia looked at him expressionlessly, and asked, "Why didn't you tell me beforehand when you went out this time, and only brought so few people with you?"

"..."

Antigonus remained silent and did not answer.

Perhaps it was expected that Antigonus would be silent, and Euphemia continued: "This time, it is the blessing of the gods that allows you to escape. From today onwards, you can stay in the palace without my permission." , cannot leave without authorization.”

"..."

"What? Want to disobey my order?" Seeing that Antigonus remained silent, Euphemia said coldly.

"No." Antigonus shook his head and said, "It's all up to mother."

How could he not know that Euphemia's plan was to put him under house arrest in the palace, and there was no way to make trouble for her so that she could further control him.But he was powerless, he had the title of king, but no power of king, and the only thing he could rely on was the 150 companion cavalry.

Everything can only be figured out gradually.

Antigonus sighed inwardly.

……

Back in his bedroom, Cronus and the others immediately greeted him, asking about what happened just now, but Antigonus was not in the mood to talk to them, he just waved his hands to show that he was tired, and then slapped his ass. Sitting on the velvet bed, the softness under his butt did not soothe his irritable heart. In his previous life, he was just a dedicated people's policeman, and he had never been exposed to similar things, let alone the corresponding experience.

However, at this moment, a strange voice suddenly sounded next to his ear. The voice was very abrupt and very close, as if it was directly close to his ear. Antigonus was startled, and stood up in reflex. Standing up, he touched his waist with his right hand, but found nothing. Only then did he realize that he didn't have a gun on him.

"who?"

He shouted in a low voice, changed his posture into a fighting style, and looked around vigilantly. His guards did not stay in the bedroom, but guarded outside, so no one noticed Antigon's movements.

For a long time, that voice didn't sound. Just when Antigon thought he was hallucinating because he was upset, the voice actually sounded again.

[The total war system is starting...]

Total War system? ? ?

Antico was stunned, and it took him a long time to realize that the appearance of the system was beyond his expectation, but it was not unacceptable. Since he could encounter it through time travel, then another system is within the acceptable range. , it is a pity that the materialist values ​​​​he established throughout his life were shattered again.

Then, the voice in the ear rang again.

[This system is the inheritance left by host 001 for host 002, and aims to protect the host from surviving in this dangerous world and build a powerful empire]

[Due to the accidental death of Host 001, the system randomly selected Host 002...]

 The system does not have artificial intelligence, it is only auxiliary
