Chapter 387 Turenus's Family Surrenders

Roy wanted to control the 100,000 Latins in Lazio and fight the Etruscans in the north. Only 5,000 soldiers were obviously not enough.

In order to bring the Latins of Lazio into submission, Loy needed the family of Turenus to lead the entire tribe of Turenus into the Athenian Empire.

The Turrenus tribe is the most powerful Latin tribe in Lazio.

The tribe of Thurenus joined the Athenian Empire, and the resistance of other Latin tribes to the Athenian Empire would weaken.

Facing Roy's demands and threats, Turenus' wife spoke without fear.

"Stranger, your ambition will not succeed. Turenus is the most powerful leader among the Latins, and there are no cowards in Turenus' family. Even if you kill us all, we will not surrender to you. Surrender. My husband Turenus will drive you away with an army of Etruscans to avenge our victims."

"You are so stupid!"

Roy couldn't help but shook his head and said.

"Do you naively think that after the Etruscans drive us away, they will leave the Lazio region?"

Turrenus' wife said with a sneer.

"Even if the Etruscans become the new rulers of the Lazio region and the Roman plain, we are not unable to accept it. We regard the king of the Etruscans as the king of the Latins, and we regard the king of the Etruscans as the king of the Latins. It is better to worship the sun god Jupiter and the moon goddess Minerva as the three main gods alongside Mars than to worship the foreign gods brought by you foreigners. "

After hearing what Tulenus's wife said, Roy not only didn't get angry, but instead said with a joking smile.

"Since Madam said this, then I will let you watch your children being punished with your own eyes! Starting with your sons, let them die one by one in front of Madam according to their age."

The wife of Tulenus had three sons with her husband.

At Loy's command, Turrenus' eldest son was first stabbed through the heart and fell to the ground.

The sixteen-year-old boy fell in a pool of his own blood. Only then did he realize that he was not as brave as he thought. He was still reluctant to leave this beautiful world.

"Mother...save me...save me..."

The boy murmured to his mother for help, his eyes gradually dimmed.

When the wife of Turenus saw her eldest son being killed, her expression was shaken and her body trembled.

She responded forcefully to Roy just now because Roy's threat was just a threat.

When Roy's threat became reality, she realized that her heart was not that strong.

Seeing that Turenus's wife's lips were trembling and she looked like she had something to say but couldn't say it, Loy signaled the soldiers to kill Turenus' second son.

After the ten-year-old child fell in front of his mother, Turenus' wife broke down and screamed.

"Ahhhhh-ahhhh-"

Seeing Turenus' wife screaming like crazy, Roy looked at Turenus' five-year-old son and two daughters with pity and said.

"What a poor child! Even if I kill you all, your father Turenus can give birth to new children with a new woman. I didn't expect that not only would your father abandon you, but your mother would also abandon you. . Perhaps your mother also feels that even if you all die, she can give birth to new children with new men. Since both father and mother have abandoned you, you will fall into the underworld together to seek the love of the goddess Persephone. Soothe it!”

After saying this, Loy ordered the soldiers to kill Turenus' youngest son.

Just when the soldiers were about to take action, Turenus' eldest daughter threw herself on her brother, protected him with her body, and cried loudly to Roy.

"Don't kill him! This is my youngest brother. He is still a child who doesn't understand anything. As long as you let him go, we are willing to surrender and we will meet all your requirements."

The second daughter of Turenus also cried.

"We can call on our tribe to join the Athenian Empire. Please let us go."

Seeing her two daughters succumbing to Loy, Turrenus's wife did not stop them.

Because she already regretted in her heart—regret that her decision had cost her two sons their lives.

The eldest daughter of Turenus looked fifteen years old, and the second daughter looked thirteen.

Looking at the two crying girls and their frightened brother, Roy said with a smile.

"Very good! Since you are willing to obey my orders, all three of you can survive. My requirements for you are not high, as long as you swear to join the Athenian Empire in front of everyone in the Tulenus tribe, and call on your people Also join the Athenian Empire. Now I am going to call the tribes of Turenus, you all be ready."

With that, Loy left the stone house, leaving twelve Athenian soldiers to protect Turenus' family.

After Tulenus' wife calmed down, she looked at the bodies of her eldest son and second son and couldn't help but ask her daughters.

"Children, did I do something wrong? If I had given in from the beginning, your brother would not have to die."

The eldest daughter comforted her mother.

"Mother! The two sons of Turenus did not surrender to the powerful enemy. The Latins will remember their bravery and fearlessness in the future. For the continuation of our father's bloodline, now we must protect the youngest brother."

Turrenus' wife nodded, but she couldn't stop the tears on her face.

Tulenus tribe.

The Athenian soldiers began to knock on doors from house to house, asking them to go to the Temple of Mars.

Roy led twelve Athenian soldiers to the Temple of Mars, first knocked down and smashed the statue of Mars, and then placed a sickle, a sacred object symbolizing Persephone, on the throne.

Because of the rush of time, the Temple of Mars could only be transformed into the Temple of Persephone in this way.

After all the people of the Tullenus tribe gathered outside the Temple of Mars, Roy asked the Athenian soldiers to bring Tullenus' family over as well.

Then, under the gaze of everyone, Roy climbed onto the altar outside the Temple of Mars, looking down at the Latins around him and said.

"My fellow Latins, I have an important message for you. Your Temple of Mars no longer worships the statue of Mars, but the sacred sickle of the goddess Persephone. In other words, your Temple of Mars has now become the Temple of Persephone. Our goddess Persephone of the Athenian Empire is the god of agriculture, just like your patron goddess Mars. Moreover, goddess Persephone is a more powerful god of agriculture than Mars. Our Athenian Empire has advanced agricultural tools and agricultural technology, all because of the blessing of goddess Persephone. Goddess Persephone is not only the god of agriculture, but also the goddess of death who controls the underworld and can protect our souls after death. The coalition of you Latins will lose to us because you worship the weak and incompetent Mars, while we worship goddess Persephone who is far more powerful than Mars. In order to let you Latins enjoy the same blessing as us, I will build the settlement of your Tullenus tribe into the city of Rome in the future. Goddess Persephone is the patron saint of Rome."
