Right now my sister is eating lunch with my mother so it is my chance to type. As you should already know, today I'm going to further expand the summary of "The Trials of Apollo". It is a great book and the part that I just finished will leave you a twist. Anyway, let's start. Meg and Apollo slowly walk out of the cave only to find out that the "Myermeke" (giant ants) have a queen. She is probably 3 times the size of a regular "Myermeke" and could rip Apollo into shreds. However, Apollo is smart and starts singing about more sorrows and stuff he wishes he could redo. Unfortunately, while all the other "Myermeke" is paralyzed, the queen still stands firm on her huge insectoid legs. Though she is standing, the queen decides no to hurt Apollo and Meg. Instead, it seems as though she admires Apollo for his singing. 

In the end, Apollo is able to make friends with the queen and even give her a nickname. "Mama", the reason behind this weird name he has given the huge insect is because her abdomen is huge and full of yellow eggs. This reminds Apollo of a mother who is about to give birth to a child, the only difference is that the queen was going to give birth to a lot more children than the average mother. As they exit out of the ant's nest Apollo and Meg find themselves in a huge group of trees. Six to be exact, three on each side. The trees were so close together that you could make the mistake to think its just one huge tree. 
Suddenly, two giant soldiers (both 7 feet tall) arise from the ground. They each slid in the opposite direction making some type of gateway. That was when Apollo realizes what is going to happen. A man walks through the "gateway" and is face to face with the mortal god himself.

The man was no other than "Emperor Nero", a king of the Roman period. The only reason he even existed that long is because so many people know of him. You see, back then the Roman Emperors found out that if you are known to almost everyone then you can survive. Technically dead, but still "living" because people still remember who you are. "Emperor Nemo" was one of the three Roman Kings who have this "power". Once he almost disappeared into thin air because people were beginning to forget him. However, as soon as the internet came people could just search his name up. After Apollo found out about this something even worse happened. He noticed that at the bottom of the tallest oak tree were 5 cacoon sacs. Inside each of them is one of the 5 demi-gods who disappeared from "Camp Half-Blood"!

One horrifying discovery after another! And wait, it doesn't get any better! That's when Meg walks over to Emperor Nero. Emperor Nero explains that Meg was on his side all along. That was the plan all this time, Apollo was really starting to get to know Meg even though it was only a few days! Emperor Nero walked over to the cacoons and was about to lit them on fire. If he did that all of the demi-gods inside would die! Apollo couldn't let that happen! Fortunately, he was able to smack the match out of Nero's hand. However, Nero didn't have just one match. So he grabbed a bottle of lighter fuel and threw it on the ground. With another match, Nero lit it and caused a fire so big that the trees were crying in pain. That is all for now, there is still a few more pages left that I need to complete!

Apparently, North Korea is able to hack America because they are accused of stealing $25,000 worth of BItcoins. If they really did this, then that means North Korea would most likely try and sell those bitcoins to get the money. I'm not sure but it would be pretty dumb if the bitcoin system is used everywhere around the world. I know that they are made in America from "very smart" computers that work day after day to calculate and find bitcoins for use. If someone sold away 10,000 bitcoins, they would get 100 million dollars in return. There was even an advertisement on Youtube about this. This man has a "true" story about a man who once gave 10,000 bitcoins in exchange for two boxes of pizza. That was when bitcoins were extremely easy to get. You probably already know know but those 10,000 bitcoins could have set him up for life. Anyway, see you later!
