Chapter 1732： Rome, buddy is coming

Rome, located in the central west of the Apennine Peninsula, on the seven hills on the plains of the lower Tiber.

It is the capital of Italy and the largest city in Italy. It is also the political, economic, cultural and transportation center of Italy. With a history of more than 2,800 years, it is a world-famous historical and cultural city.

Because of its long history of city construction, Rome is also known as the "Eternal City", "City of Ten Thousand Cities", and "City of Seven Hills", and is one of the greatest cities in the Western world.

The name Rome alone means greatness in the eyes of Westerners.

It is closely linked to the greatest empire in Western history, the Roman Empire. It is the birthplace and capital of the Great Roman Empire, and is the place where countless major histories take place.

In the long history of this city for more than 2,800 years, it has experienced the heyday of the Eastern and Western Roman Empires, the darkness of the Middle Ages, and the spring breeze of the Renaissance.

Emperor Caesar once strategized here, decided to win a thousand miles, and conquered the entire Western world; Octavian established the great Roman Empire in this city; Constantine the Great divided this empire into two.

In the Middle Ages, it was ravaged and ransacked by the Goths. It was once sent as a gift by the King of France, and it was almost completely destroyed by the Holy Roman Emperor Charles V in a fire.

When the humanistic spring breeze of the Renaissance movement blew, this ancient city was once again revitalized and transformed its identity into a cultural and artistic activity center during the Renaissance and Baroque eras.

This is a great city and one of the birthplaces of world culture. In Western history, and even the entire world history, it radiates extremely bright light, which makes countless people yearn for it.

For people who believe in Catholicism, Rome is one of the holy places in their hearts!

To be more precise, it should be said that the Vatican, the seat of the Catholic Church in Rome, is the holy place in the hearts of all Catholics.

Rome is the center of the Catholic Church in the world. There are more than 700 churches and monasteries, seven Catholic universities, and the city within the city ‘Vatican’ is the residence of the Catholic Pope and the Holy See.

It is also a center city of the Renaissance, juxtaposed with Florence, with a gathering of humanities.

In the city of Rome, in addition to a large number of ancient buildings from the Roman period and other periods, there are many beautiful buildings from the Renaissance and Baroque periods in this city.

It is these historical buildings that span more than two thousand eight hundred years that make this city full of antiques and historical charm.

As for Ye Tian, ​​Rome, the world's largest ‘open-air museum’, is full of fatal attraction, attracting him all the time, let him come here.

There are the Colosseum, the Pantheon, the National Museum of Rome, and so on. Of course, there are countless secrets left over from the ancient Roman Republic over the past two thousand years!

All of this is the reason and purpose that prompted Ye Tian to come to Rome, not just the cooperation with the Vatican to jointly explore the treasures of the Knights Templar.

When Ye Tian and his convoy arrived on the outskirts of Rome, it was already more than eight o'clock in the evening, the sun was setting and the lights were beginning to shine, and the twilight gradually enveloped the whole world.

Seeing the brightly lit ancient city ahead, Ye Tian couldn't help but exclaimed in excitement:

"Great Rome, the eternal city! Brothers are here, I hope we can collide with the most splendid and fascinating sparks and shock the whole world!"

Betty, who was sitting next to him, was equally excited, looking at the city ahead, her eyes full of expectation.

The convoy continued to drive fast along the highway, and Rome under the twilight became clearer, more charming, and intoxicating!

At this moment, Cole's voice suddenly came from the earphones.

"Steven, Leonardo, who returned to the Vatican early, came to greet us with a group of members of the Swiss Guard, along with Cardinal Kent.

In addition to them, the two groups of special police officers from the Roman police station, as well as the cultural military police led by Giovanni, were also dispatched together, waiting for us not far from the front, the scene is not small"

Upon hearing the announcement, Ye Tian said immediately:

"The scene does sound not small, but these guys have their own purpose. After meeting with Leonardo and Cardinal Kent and their motorcade, they immediately connected the intercom, and I had a few words with those old friends.

As for the Roman SWAT and Giovanni guys, don’t pay attention to them for the time being. When we enter Rome and then the Vatican, those guys will definitely come up to warn us. This is inevitable.”

"Understood, Steven"

Cole responded with a smile, in a very relaxed tone.

The convoy drove a further distance. When passing a fork in the road, six or seven SUVs with the Vatican flag suddenly drove out of the fork and followed the convoy.

Immediately afterwards, the voice of the old friend Cardinal Kent came from the intercom.

"Good evening, Steven, I'm Kent, welcome to Rome, welcome to the Vatican, we look forward to it day and night, and finally we are looking forward to you, it's not easy!"

"Hahaha, Bishop of Kent, good evening, I am really flattered to let you value it so much and look forward to it day and night. I am helpless because there are so many cultural relics and historical sites in Italy that are so lingering, so I have delayed it so far!"

Ye Tian said with a chuckle, joking with the Bishop of Kent.

After a few small chats, Leonardo suddenly intervened and said in a slightly solemn tone:

"Good evening, Steven, this is Leonardo, welcome to Rome, your group and your heavy-duty convoy are now the focus of attention of countless people, including the Romans.

You enter Rome in such a high-profile manner, which is bound to cause a huge sensation, attract the attention of countless people, and even trigger protest demonstrations or other accidents.

For safety's sake, it's better to let us guide you into Rome, avoid the busy areas and the eyes and ears of most people in the city as much as possible, and enter the Vatican silently.

In this way, you will miss the beautiful night scenes of many famous attractions. It is a pity, but from a safety point of view, this is the best way. You make too much noise during the day! "

Hearing this, Ye Tian immediately smiled and said:

"Good evening, Leonardo, your suggestion is very good. I have no different opinions. Next, you will be responsible for guiding and taking us into Rome In this way, maybe we still You can see the other side of Rome. As for the beautiful night view of those famous attractions, don’t worry, some have time to appreciate it slowly.

"Okay, Steven, we will speed up to the front of the convoy and guide you into Rome, but your four heavy trucks can no longer follow. The streets in Rome are too narrow to move!"

"Understood, Leonardo, you can just lead the way. As for the four heavy trucks, I will let my subordinates drive elsewhere. Their task of escorting has been temporarily completed."

After speaking, Ye Tian picked up the walkie-talkie and told Cole to let him make the dispatch and notify the accompanying police personnel to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings.

Soon, several of Leonardo's cars quickly passed from the side lanes, and in a blink of an eye they passed the convoy and began to lead the way ahead.

Then they drove a few hundred meters forward. When the convoy came to the edge of the Roman city, Ye Tian and the others saw a large flashing police light from a distance, very dazzling in the twilight!

It was a dozen or twenty police cars from the Roman police station and from the Italian military police. They were parked at a fork in the road ahead. They were waiting in full battle, making the atmosphere quite tense!

At this time in Rome, the news that Ye Tian and the others were about to arrive had spread like the wind across the city and reached almost everyone's ears.

"Steven's cruel **** is coming to Rome, with his extremely sturdy and cruel men, and the bullet-scarred convoy of demons, he will enter Rome soon!"

The moment they heard this news, almost every Roman person felt a panic and frightened!
