Chapter 255 I Just Came Back to Clean Up Rome (4k)
Looking at the sky without any response, the last Roman angel who was still unwilling to give up finally gave up.
They called on people from all over the world because they wanted to be sure of victory, so they found a force that no mortal could resist.
This of course includes themselves.
In a sense, the gap was so big that it made them despair more than facing a true God.
Because they dug this grave themselves.
But no matter how desperate they were, they were not going to give it a try.
After all, what if?
Although everyone knows it is futile.
The Pompeii Roman angel had his head chopped off by the Round Table and looked dead, but the Golden Flower Lord Trapolis pulled his longbow towards the distance. After a sound of arrows flying from the longbow, many Pompeii Roman angels still escaped and fell to the ground in helplessness.
The angel of the Second Roman Empire wanted to break through, but he was forced to his knees by countless hands before he even left the ground. Then the flaming sword from Brazilian Mithaya pierced his heart and burned his body.
An angel of the Holy Roman Empire who was neither holy, nor Roman, nor an empire, he first had half of his wings torn off, and then was shot down by the spears of the people of the valley when he was mid-air.
The angel of the Western Roman Empire may have fled the farthest, because he fled directly into the spiritual world. However, when he hid in a broken ancient castle, the entire castle, along with him, was thrown into the purple sun by the angels of Sadas.
Two angels from the Eastern Roman Empire tried to hold Augustus hostage. One of them delayed the other, but the one who was taking action did not expect that he would be beheaded by a Dacian as soon as he stepped forward. As his head kept spinning, he was still wondering if his companion who was delaying the time was losing too quickly.
But when he completely fell to the ground, he saw his companions who had abandoned him long ago and fled to the sky.
He was the one being used to buy time.
This was very successful, but unfortunately, they called people from all over the world, so he was shot down by thunder when he flew into the air.
It was an almost inevitable defeat.
But at the very last moment, before the Grim Reaper's scythe fell.
They all cursed in unison:
"A lizard with no moral principles or honor!"
Although the evil dragon Drakarion also betrayed them, it was the only one who received payment in advance.
But they had previously relied most on each other.
I even believed that I also had dignity and persistence.
It's total bullshit from beginning to end!
Quintus and the centurion standing behind Moon looked shocked from beginning to end.
They really didn't expect that even though Rome had fallen, the rest of the world, which had almost nothing to do with Rome, chose to remember it.
Six Roman angels, six deaths. Five Roman empires, five destructions.
But only five of their extraordinary properties were successfully preserved.
Instead of taking possession of it, the people gave it to Augustus along with the other two dwarven rings.
The leader was the most prestigious person present, Trapolis. As the Golden Flower Lord who had lived from the Age of Gods to the present, he was obviously the most suitable person to represent everyone, both in terms of strength and status.
A gap had been cleared in the sky in front of the burning Roman airship behind him.
It was as if the sky had opened up, allowing the sun's rays to shine directly on Augustus riding on a white horse.
The Golden Flower Lord held up the extraordinary characteristics that they had carefully collected, and turned to Moon and said seriously:
"I am honored to meet you again after all these years, Lord Augustus Julius."
Behind him, the crowd knelt on one knee.
Although today is no longer the broken world that experienced the apocalypse.
But precisely because it is not a broken and sad world, they need to admire the person who is mending the world before their eyes.
They seek no power, no fame, and no fortune; their only wish is to save and continue their shattered civilization.
Such a person, even if he failed to achieve any achievements in the end, would be enough to make them admire him, not to mention that Augustus did it!
Today's world, although not beautiful, is still prosperous, which is the proof of his achievements.
Augustus nodded slightly, dismounted and took the gift handed to him.
Then he turned and handed it to Quintus.
"Please use them properly in the future."
Quintus said nothing, but took everything silently.
He knew that Augustus had only come back to clean up Rome, which should have been cleaned up long ago.
He won't stay.
After patting the silent Quintus on the shoulder, Moon smiled and looked at the people kneeling in front of him.
He bowed towards them and said:
"I am very grateful to you for coming here for me and this broken Rome."
After delivering his extraordinary characteristics, Trapolis also knelt on one knee and said:
"We are not doing this for Rome, we are doing this for you, my Lord."
The only person in this old continent who was worthy of them was and is Augustus.
In response, Moon nodded and smiled, then looked at the fleet above his head and said:
"Please express my gratitude to the people and monarchs behind you. Without you, today would never be like this."
"My Lord, you will still win without us."
Moon did not object to this, but he also said:
"I don't have much time, so I must thank you all for your efforts, and please express my deepest apologies to everyone behind you."
"I'm sorry I can't be there in person to thank you."
At this point, the crowd finally understood what was going on and looked up in surprise.
"My lord, what do you mean?"
Moon smiled at them and said:
"The only reason I came back was to clean up this Rome that is no longer Rome. And now, I have no reason to stay any longer."
The crowd lowered their heads again.
Although this is really unfair to Augustus, the man who literally saved the world.
However, this is indeed the most appropriate ending.
The Lord of the World could be the Lord of the World in those days, and now, they are also willing to come to the Old Continent for the Lord of the World.
But after three epochs, it was no longer possible for them to continue to recognize the rule of the Lord of the World.
What they acknowledged were Augustus's merits and favors.
Trapolis bowed his head deeply and said:
"We will do our best to repair your Rome and make sure all the mistakes that have been made are not repeated again."
"I am grateful for your kindness, but Rome must stand up on its own, because I found that I seemed to have spoiled Rome too much, so that they grew into monsters in our spoiling."
Trapolis looked back at the crowd, and after a brief eye contact, he knew what everyone was thinking.
At least let them express their feelings.
This crushing victory is really not enough to repay them for everything they have ever received.
Trapolis lowered his head again and said:
"Sir, I, I..." But before he could finish.
He then heard the mournful neighing of the white Pegasus.
Augustus, who was clearly a mortal but overshadowed all the glory before him, has disappeared.
Disappeared along with Augustus were the centurions and many of Augustus's honorary soldiers.
Although there are still many honor soldiers left, more, about two-thirds, have left with Augustus.
This sudden change made the crowd stand up subconsciously.
But they could not find Augustus.
Moreover, the white ice horse also cried out, turned its back, left the world and returned to the spirit world.
Looking at the closing colorful cracks and the lonely Quintus.
Trapolis sighed and stepped forward, patted his shoulder and said:
"Rome has been handed over to you by Augustus. Don't let Augustus down!"
Then, the elf from the Age of Gods bowed towards the place where Augustus once stood, and before turning away, he bent down and took the golden flower that he had always regarded as his life from his chest.
After leaving the golden flower that came from the other party without his knowing to Augustus, the Golden Flower Lord returned to the foot of the sacred tree with the elves' fleet.
So does the rest of the people.
They also left their gifts more or less where Augustus had stood.
The sword of the round table, the dwarven hammer, the scimitar of Dacia, the flaming spear.
Gifts from all over the world were quietly left here by people from all over the world.
Not long after, the fleet that covered the sky and the sun also left.
Only Quintus and the Romans who were no longer slaves felt lost.
The only thing that could comfort them was that although Augustus left, he still left behind one-third of the Army of Honor.
This would be the foundation for their reconstruction of Rome.
Although people don't know where the other honorary troops went.
I think they have already started a new life in the resting place that was originally promised, and this time they returned just to follow Augustus.
-
The crowd in front of Moon had disappeared, and after he opened a gap, the fleet that covered the sky and the sun also disappeared.
The only person he saw now was the person he was very familiar with, Lian Xiaojia.
It’s so familiar that it’s even a little strange.
After a long period of melancholy.
Augustus turned back into Moon. After carefully taking off and folding the bloody ribbon, Moon sat on the sofa with a sense of relief and felt the peace for the moment.
In front of him, the information terminal was constantly broadcasting the breaking events that had just become a hot topic - many people said that they finally remembered what they had been dreaming about for the past few days.
They are in a place called Rome, following a great man called Augustus to do the noble cause of saving the world!
They liberated city after city and freed slave after slave.
There were even reporters saying that many of these people were people they had never met before, but they were able to accurately tell each other's names and identities after meeting each other.
Of course, the identity of the Romans and the Old World was never recorded in that association.
After seeing this, the time travelers were all in a state of excitement in silence.
They knew everything that happened in the Old World, and even many of them were in that army that covered the sky and the sun. However, they had no idea that the Honor Army came from their side.
Once this news was confirmed, it directly proved what they and the other side had been speculating for the past five years - the Human Union was the resting place? !
In response to this, Moon, who had also guessed this a long time ago, took out a pocket watch from his chest.
The wound caused by his own stupidity and arrogance was still hideously displayed in front of Moon.
This made Moon feel deeply guilty, but also made him extremely grateful.
Fortunately, he still has one more chance.
Fortunately, the pocket watch is still there.
Because this rare peace was so precious, Moon sat there until late at night before getting up and taking the folded blood ribbon to prepare to put it away properly.
But just as he was about to pick up the saint's staff and place the bloody ribbon next to the holy shroud.
The cane cracked.
-
On this side of the Old World.
The last centurion walked up to Quintus, took off his sword and inserted it into the outside of the gifts.
He then asked Quintus:
"What were those supplies and food left behind by Augustus for?"
Quintus then came back to his senses in shock:
"I do not know either."
-
Also on the Old Continent, fleets from other continents continued to fly across the sky.
In the ancient city of Pompeii, which was already in chaos, Lilith was walking through it with great joy.
The nobles wanted to escape, the soldiers wanted to plunder, and the slaves wanted to rebel.
The conflict of human nature was perfectly displayed before her.
This made her feel very happy.
But that was not her purpose.
She is not a demon that feeds on negativity and thrives on chaos.
She just loved it all.
But the reason she came to Pompeii at this moment was for what she had been pursuing.
Deep underground in the ancient city of Pompeii, the secret passage that should have been strictly guarded was now completely deserted because the guards had escaped.
But even so, there are still countless spells and mechanisms guarding everything in the deepest part.
However, everything became useless when Lilith showed the elf ring that she wore on her left hand.
Until she followed the spiral downward stairs and pushed open the door at the deepest point.
Lilith Shava saw a temple that was exactly the same as the one the witch and the knight had seen.
But the only difference is that next to the altar standing in the center of the temple, lies an extremely ugly monster.
He was once a noble angel, and his wings, now transformed into two tumors, were the best proof of that.
But at this moment, it is just an ugly monster that is slowly growing.
Lilith squatted in front of the monster with a smile on her face, stroking its swollen cheek with pity and sarcasm, and said:
"Are you too blind to see yourself? You have already escaped with the help of the Holy Relics, but why are you still doing such a stupid thing? The real owner of Pompeii?"
At Lilith's smile, the monster trembled with excitement.
But it was of no use. Even Lilith could feel the powerful force hidden in its body.
This is not a person or power that it can be contaminated by.
Lilith simply shook her head before reaching into its swollen, smelly body and pulling out a piece of liver wrapped in flesh and amber.
