The current situation in Rome is indeed not very good. Although the super locust plague in Africa has been suppressed, the losses during the locust plague are irreversible. The Roman Empire has really lacked food for millions of people this year.

Even though the unrest was suppressed by the iron fist unique to the feudal imperial system and the powerful military force, stabilizing the situation as much as possible, the substantial problem was not solved. Shortage of food means shortage of food. Without the ability of five fish and two cakes, you will die without food!

Therefore, the current Roman Empire is definitely not nonsense to say internal and external troubles, but even so, it is definitely not the reason why Cyprian made a big fuss in the Roman Senate.

"Internal and external troubles?" Sergio, the acting patriarch of the Claudius family, glanced at Cyprian and said with a sneer, "What are you calling external troubles? What are internal troubles?"

"Not Odin? Isn't the barbarian who lacked that bite of food?" Cyprian retorted without hesitation, "Maybe Odin did not have any way to deal with the Roman Empire before, but now, the ideal village around the Mediterranean has been broken. Odin really wants to rush into the essence area to the death. Rome, which has lost the ability to efficiently regulate the essence of heaven and earth on a large scale, can it be refined instantly?"

The essence of the Divine Guard is actually very clear to the three empires, which are the physical essence of heaven and earth with the real talent of elite talents. This thing is really fierce, without eating, drinking, defecating, and combat power is also reliable. If you rush to the essence of the three empires, burning, killing, looting, even the three empires can't stand it.

But its essence is destined to be refined in an instant when facing some outrageous things. Even though this means of refining in an instant requires more prerequisites, the local areas of the three empires are all constructed. Even if there are suckers like Kushan that provide enough energy, it would be no problem to directly build such a thing in the places where Odin in Nordic is raging.

In fact, when the three empires joined forces to kill the African locust plague, the special methods that Rome and the Han Dynasty finally used were all things that could be refined into energy in an instant with Odin.

According to the output at that time, the entire Nordic forces could withstand only two gangsters Zigrud and Beowulf. Others who could not fully control their own strength would be instantly turned into nothingness and filled into the cycle of the magic circle as energy.

Therefore, the three empires took the disaster of Nordic seriously in the early days. After realizing the essence of the Divine Guard, they were not very timid. What is the point of refining things in an instant? At most, it is just a matter of input-output ratio. When it really comes, refine them directly!

But this was not the African Locust Heaven before. After the African Locust Heaven was killed, most of the energy reserves of the Kushan Empire were drained. The Roman Empire's ideal village around the Mediterranean had a large number of breakthroughs due to its extreme output. In a short period of time, unless there were a great injustice like the Kushan Empire who was willing to invest such a large amount of energy, the protection of the Roman Empire would not be able to be activated at all.

In this way, the Northern Europe disaster, which was no longer a disaster, became a disaster again. Even considering that the Roman Empire is currently suffering from food shortage, if Odin seizes the opportunity and chooses to go south and combines with the barbarians in the Roman Empire, the Roman Empire will really suffer a heavy blow this time.

Therefore, logically speaking, Cyprian is actually not talking nonsense. He is really considering the issue from the standpoint of the Roman Empire. But this tone and expression really make these senior officials of the Roman Empire very unhappy - fuck, the beggars from other places actually came to our Senate to cause trouble, it's really awesome!

In addition to what Cyprian did, the Roman senior officials have basically understood that the explosion of the Tianzhou God Kingdom cannot be easily shaken. Cyprian is at least at the mastermind level.

However, due to the other party's current identity, it is obviously a disgusting senator who has brought Yuan Tan, the Duke of the Eastern European border county, and even if the senior executives of the Senate have some ideas, it is impossible to implement it at this time.

Therefore, when facing Cyprian's mouth, these people could only listen first. After all, no matter how malicious the proposal was made, as long as the other party's mind was not a problem, at least there would be a logic inside. Although the characteristics shown by Cyprian at present are not very clear, they are indeed considering the stability of the Roman Empire. How can you say that such a wanted criminal can believe it?

"What? Does the Roman Empire have the ability to make food out of thin air?" Cyprian said in a slight sarcastic tone.

"It's not that there is no." Sergio said in silence for a while, and then while others were shocked, Sergio continued to speak, "We don't want to pursue what you have done in Cyprian. After all, by chance, you appeared in the Senate as the Duke of the Eastern European border county and became a Roman senator, so we won't be too entangled in the past."

Cyprian looked at Sergio with a expressionless face, just as if the other party was farting, while Xu You looked at the people in the Senate with interest. Recently, what the Roman Senate has been discussing is how to stabilize the internal situation. As the well-known Erwuzi, they sat in the Senate and even spoke from time to time, which was not bad.

More importantly, Xu You could see the Roman Empire even more clearly when sitting in the Roman Senate. Everything discussed here recently gave Xu You a clearer understanding of this empire that had always suppressed their Zhongguo. He was very strong, very strong, but not invincible.

"Yusidai, take that information." Sergio greeted his nephew who was a recorder here. The same thing is said, "You can get to such places when you work miscellaneously, which is basically equivalent to the post-subscription personnel in these positions. Who told Yuusidai to have a surname Claudius? People really have a place to inherit here. This is not a joke.

"Cyprian, you are indeed a genius, but there are only three empires in this world, and you don't understand the true meaning of this sentence." Sergio said to Cyprian casually, and then handed the information brought by Yusidi to Cyprian.

Cyprian didn't understand why, but just glanced at the Latin text on the information, his pupils suddenly shrank, and then he quickly read, read, analyze, and mastered. Cyprian picked up the wooden cup containing water at his hand and tried it.

The special secret technique was released from Cyprian's fingertips. Under the influence of the special magic circle around the Mediterranean Ideal Township, the wooden cup was decomposed on the spot. Then Cyprian reached out and pointed the residue, and then his expression became much more serious.

"This is an advanced secret technique - grain-making technique. Under the action of special secret techniques, wood and water can be converted into edible starch." Sergio said calmly, "So, you don't need to worry about the lack of food in the Roman Empire. We just want to see who has this intention. As for the force to suppress the rebellion, I think you have absolute confidence even if you stand opposite us, right?"

There is no doubt that Cyprian was confident in the military power of the Roman Empire. Even the powerful force that the Kingdom of Tianzhou God could explode did not need to consider the issue of strength. To put it too much, except for the Han Dynasty and Kushan who are fighting each other, other things are not even considered to be opponents for Rome.

At the same time, when Sergio said this, the elders who were staying in some corners in the Senate could not help but have a little strange color.

"Is it actually a secret technique to make wood and water into edible starch?" Xu You looked at Sergio in shock as he reached out to touch the product made by Cyprian using the secret technique with wooden cups and water. After tasting it, his expression became much weirder.

It is not completely converted into starch, and there is still a lot of wood residue in it, but what I really want to say at this level is already a level that I can't eat. It is enough to deal with the barbarians in any case. It is even placed in the Han Dynasty more than 20 years ago, which is life-saving food.

"The technology seems not mature yet." Cyprian said, pinching the fine powder with his fingertips.

"It's impossible to eat anyone anymore, let alone the problem of eating starch with wood residue is not the problem?" Sergio said very plainly and directly. The class is so obvious. The Roman Empire was the empire responsible for Roman citizens. As for non-citizens, it's good to eat starch with wood residue. If you don't die, you will win. What else do you want.

"What's more, technology? Humph, there are only three empires in this world. Who do you think are you saying to?" Sergio looked at Cyprian with a arrogant look on his face and said.

"It's really not a problem." Cyprian was silent for a while and no longer got involved in this technology. Since Sergio could come up with this technology and let Cyprian learn and use it on the spot, it was enough to show the maturity of this technology.

"Then let's go to the next issue." Sergio saw that Cyprian stopped talking and said to Pompianus. Pompianus also looked at his acting head with a ghost expression. He had such an outrageous secret technique at home? Damn, why don't I know!

The Senate meeting was held all morning, and Xu You and others were also very eye-opening. When the meeting was dispersed, these people, as the forces of the Duke of the Eastern European border counties, collectively booked a bathhouse to play. There was no way. Rome was such a custom. Even if Xu You was a little unhappy, he had to follow the customs.

"What's going on with grain making?" After the meeting was dispersed, the real power-held senior officials in the Roman Senate stayed in another place to hold a small meeting. After all, a small meeting was held for a big event, and the battle was decided quickly.

"Yes, is there such a secret technique in the family? I haven't heard of it. If there is such a secret technique, why do we give the Yuan family so much benefit? Are you asking for trouble?" Urbian looked at Sergio in dissatisfaction and asked. The secret technique that Cyprian learned and mastered on the spot, Urbian also tasted the starch produced by the production, just like what Sergio said, what if there is wood residue? Just say it is starch, can you starve to death?

There is no doubt that Cyprian, who learned and mastered this secret technique on the spot, took the wooden cup distributed by the Senate and directly made it into something that could be used as rations for barbarians. Why did the Roman Empire cede the Yuan family?

"This is too wild. Just use wood to make starch. Which one has studied it? This is too amazing." Herodian also looked at Sergio with a look of surprise.

"It was not what we did, it was what we asked the Kushan Empire for, and this thing was not as good as you thought. Cyprian learned and used it on the spot. That's because in the Senate, Cyprian's qualifications were indeed extraordinary, otherwise it would not be possible." Sergio said angrily, "This is Pabinian's plan to stabilize the country."

Wood can be converted into starch, sucrose, and glucose under certain conditions. In fact, in reality, an enzyme in termites can do this, and the concentrated hydrochloric acid method in chemistry can also do this, and the hydrolysis and other means can achieve this effect.

In essence, this secret technique of the Kushan Empire was only equivalent to speeding up the transformation process, and there were still some problems that could not be transformed during this period.

As for the origin of this secret technique, it was actually that some Kushan researchers saw Dalit members gnawing wood, obtaining nutrition, and even strengthening themselves. They felt very strange. They conducted research on purpose. Although there were some problems in the direction of the research, the researchers in Kushan did come up with a special secret technique to convert wood into starch.

However, this secret technique consumes a high energy consumption and is also very difficult to master. Although Cyprian reads it quickly, he quickly mastered it. The problem is that Cyprian's level can be counted even in the history of the world.

Of course, most Roman elders didn't know how outrageous Cyprian's true level was. But like Sergio, the helmsman of the Claudius family, had to detect and manage people who might threaten the existence of the Roman Empire. Therefore, even if Sergio did not find out the bottom of Cyprian's true level, there would be a relatively accurate judgment.

To determine the ability of qualifications, for the level of the empire, if you want to, you can have it on the spot as long as you are willing to invest. What's more, the Roman Empire was not a vegetarian. At most, it was not worth it before, but this time it was worth it.

Therefore, the old judge Pabinian asked Sergio to use Cyprian's hand to perform a scene for the senate in the Senate. A Roman Empire called the Arrogant Roman Empire could get enough food and grass, but I just wanted to see how many people were not obeying the management of the Roman Empire.

After all, since the Duke of Eastern Europe appointed Ciprien to come to the Senate, Ciprien's unruly manifestation made all the senate realize that this person was here to sabotage, and the young and energetic Ciprien could not make peace with the Claudius family, the core force of the Roman Empire. So the things made by Ciprien would not be deliberately cooperated.

"There are some real traitors in the Senate." Sergio said slowly, "The revived barbarian turmoil is driven by some people in the Senate. These people have different ideas, but are generally dissatisfied with us."

The Claudius family is so huge that it has squeezed the living space of other elders just because they exist. Even if they lack food, there shouldn't be a turmoil at this time, because the food last year has not been over yet, not to mention that when the Roman barbarians were not in the mood for food, they could have some fish for a while if they could last.

Theoretically, the Roman Empire would have had turmoil due to food shortages, which should have only started now. In fact, the turmoil in the Roman Empire began with the first round of locust plagues. You should know that during the first round of locust plagues, the Roman Empire had more or less carried out disaster relief.

Under such circumstances, the rapid outbreak of unrest, the top leaders of the Senate were actually aware of whether there was any push behind it. However, Sergio and others had never considered the enemy in the Senate at that time. However, the further they went, the more obvious the possibility, which led to Pabinian's suggestion.

"Cyprian cannot cooperate with us. He is eager to dismantle our Roman platform, so he can use this true and accurate secret technique to directly convert the wooden cup into starch, which is the most obvious point, which is very important." Sergio said with a deep expression.

"Leave the secret technique to me, let me try it." Urbian said to Sergio. Sergio did not refuse. After Urbian took it, he quickly looked at it twice, then closed his eyes and thought for a while, raised his hand and used it. The wooden plate in front of him was directly converted into starch mixed with wooden residue.

"If you say so, there is no problem with this secret technique." Pompianus pinched some fine powder and felt it. There was fine starch and rough wood residue. "It is indeed a grain-making technique."

"Nonsense, if it's fake, it's not something that's true, of course." Sergio said with a sneer. "In fact, this grain-making technique can really convert wood into starch, but the energy consumption is very high. Your current level is already the result of my balance of energy consumption and output as much as possible. The consumption may still be exaggerated. Even if we were not in the central area of ​​the Ideal Township around the Mediterranean, this secret technique would not be able to be used."

"Oh, Kushan has understood it by relying on supermodel clouds." Urbian teased.

"In short, the secret technique is real. Those veterans who have different intentions will compare it repeatedly and will definitely confirm this in the end. In this way, the problem becomes that the arrogant Claudius family wants to see how much garbage they want to go against them." Sergio said with a sneer.

"This is indeed a way to solve the problem. At least after seeing this operation, even if there are veterans with different intentions, they have to consider and deal with this matter." Herodian nodded.

The grain-making technique actually couldn't produce much food due to energy consumption, but others didn't know this. They were only sure that the acting patriarch of the Claudius family took out this thing. It was completely impossible for Cyprian, who had made peace with the Claudius family, to learn and master the secret technique on the spot, and then used a wooden cup to make starch.

It doesn't matter whether the wood slag is or not. Sergio's words are for everyone. It sounds outrageous to express such words from the arrogant Claudius family, but if you think about it carefully, it is no problem if you really combine it with reality.

"This operation can also reduce the intensity of civil strife to a certain extent. Our food reserves are insufficient. If the losses are caused by the unrest, the trouble will only be greater. So now we can stabilize the guys with dissent, so that they feel that we do this on purpose and don't let go of food if we have it." Sergio reminded the group of core figures in the family.

"I will remember urging food and grass. If the treasury is empty, I will urging you." Pompianus said, and Sergio did not refute when he heard this. In fact, when the treasury is empty, there may not be much food and grass left in the Claudius family, but the play will still be performed.

"Send some more to the citizens." Urbian half-closed his eyes, like a fox.

"Does it deliberately create conflicts, and it shows that we do have food and supplies, and it is in line with our performance in the Senate this time?" Sergio said with some embarrassment.

There is no other meaning. Sergio was afraid that the degree would not be well grasped, which led to the excitement of the barbarians and the overall explosion. In this way, even if the Roman Eagle Flag Legion is in hand, it would not be easy to suppress it.

What's more, when it really comes to that point, other veterans will definitely use public opinion to let the Claudius family release grain, and then use grain making techniques to create a large amount of starch containing wood residue to maintain the stability of the Roman Empire. But these two are dioramas themselves, and once they are exposed, they will really explode!

"You always have a few candidates." Urbian said to Sergio. He would never know who the veteran is.

"It's still a bit dangerous. I can't grasp this degree. What's happening in Central Asia tells me that all those who think they can control the hungry people are eaten by the hungry people." Sergio was silent for a while and rejected Urbian's proposal. The other party's proposal was very good, but the current situation of the Roman Empire was destined to demand stability now, and it was impossible to take risks in this matter.

"Then it's better to leave. Just maintain the status quo first, and the information you should release is also released. Generally speaking, with the performance of the Claudius family, others can still trust it." Pompianus thought for a while, and felt that it was too risky to not be able to do these things at this time.

"That's it." Seeing that no one present supported him, Urbian had no choice but to give up his radical idea. " Speaking of which, who is the one who is leading the optimization of grain making technology now?"

"We are a little different from the secret technique from the Kushan Empire," Sergio sighed, "But no one knows the real situation now, this level is enough."

On the other hand, Xu You and others, who came back from the large bathhouse, returned to the Rome office of the Duke of the Eastern European Border County, immediately asked Cyprian to use grain making techniques again.

After repeatedly using grain-making techniques for more than a dozen times and creating a lot of starch rich in wood residue, Xu You asked Cyprian to stop, then found professionals to analyze these starch using special means, and finally confirmed that these starch were not only more impurities, but also had no difference from the starch obtained normally, but was the real starch.

In this way, the question turns to what Sergio said before. It doesn’t matter whether it contains wood residue or not. What’s important is that it is indeed starch, something that can make people eat!

"The Roman Empire actually has such a method." Xu You looked at these steamed buns made of starch made from Cyprian, picked up one, chewed it, and nipped it a bit, and it tasted badly when eating it. It was a bit irritating when swallowed, but it was still fine to say that this thing was a steamed bun that could fill your stomach.

"Now a new problem is coming. The Roman Empire has such a method. Why do we still have to incorporate Duke Zhongguo into the Roman Empire and become the Duke of the border county?" Sima Yi took a bite of this starch steamed bun rich in wood residue. After swallowing it with difficulty, he put the bite of the starched steamed bun aside, and then looked at Xu You and ate the whole steamed bun expressionlessly.

"This is also my doubt. The only thing that can be explained at the moment is that this secret technique appeared after we were trying to win over our farming." Xu You sighed and said, "But this is not important anymore. What's important is that this secret technique has changed a lot of things. The Claudius family is indeed extremely arrogant."

"What do you think of Cyprian?" Sima Yi looked at Cyprian and asked.

"I'm just wondering why the other party wanted me to see this secret technique?" Cyprian frowned, "Actually, this thing should not appear in my hands anyway. This is not a question of whether the Claudius family is arrogant or not, but more realistic. Why can I get this secret technique? If nothing else, this secret technique is definitely nothing like any special secret technique. This is already a national-level thing. What's the top pick in Rome? Why can I get this kind of thing?"

Sima Yi raised his eyebrows and looked at Cyprian with a look of surprise. What the people in the game see are completely different from what the outsiders see. Therefore, when the people in the authorities tell the outsiders some information, the things outsiders can get are even more than the people in the game.

"Sergio is doing the method in Nasciprian." Xu You turned his head and said to Sima Yi. Sima Yi nodded, he also thought so.

"It should be a very important factor for Cyprian to use this secret technique." Sima Yi looked at Xu You seriously and said, "Cyprian explains this secret technique. Even if there are special bans on this secret technique, I think you should be able to bypass it with your ability."

Cyprian was silent for a while, and began to test the forbidden logic of this secret technique. He quickly found some traces and then began to show it to Sima Yi. After Sima Yi looked at it for a long time, he finally confirmed that it would be difficult for him to learn this secret technique based on these parts alone.

"This secret technique is difficult, even more difficult than the things I have learned before." Sima Yi frowned. "This seems to be a factor. It seems that Cyprian can learn and use it on the spot. It seems that there are not many calculations here, but it is not a calculation for us."

When playing conspiracy, Cyprian is not as good as Sima Yi. Under the premise that the information is so incomplete, what Cyprian can find is completely different from what Sima Yi can find. At least when Cyprian is still in a fog, Sima Yi is basically sure that Cyprian has been used as a tool by the Claudius family.

Fortunately, Cyprian is not the other party's target, so...

"There are strange guys in the Senate." Xu You, who was playing with the round chalcedony the size of a pigeon egg, gave his own judgment, "Zhongda, I'll leave it to you to contact."
To be continued...
