"Oh, actually, I'm a little curious, you know scientists are inevitably a little impulsive to explore. “

"Don't do that, Leonardo da Vinci," Titus tapped on the trackpad, and a long strip of machine rose from the ground in front of them, "If you want to find out the true face of SEELE through my old war stories, I don't know much about them than you do, the undead, protect some super ancient Egyptian, that's all we know, but you're different from me, you're free." “

"What do you mean by that, are they enslaving you?" Leonardo da Vinci strode forward and grabbed Titus by the shoulder.

"Don't get excited, I know you're a good person, but they didn't enslave me, they just gave me a chance. “

"Opportunity?"

"Yes, I was Emperor of Rome then," Titus touched his chin, his thoughts drifting back. ”

"I conquered the Holy Land, conquered the mountains and all my enemies, but it was not enough, an ambitious emperor is not always so sane sometimes, I dream of the whole world. ”

"The conquest of the world is not as simple as conquering several countries, as I understood when I attacked Jerusalem, I did not have enough troops, I did not have enough supplies, but it was like fate, one night a strange flying machine descended in front of my palace, and later I learned that they came from an alien country called the Kree Empire. “

"I'm guessing they've given you something to conquer this planet, right? “

"That's right, Leonardo da Vinci, they don't offer much, they're just a vanguard, but it's enough for me, I swear at the time, I think they're gods, I've never seen that kind of terrible weapon in my life, just pull the trigger lightly, you can smash the strongest chariots, no matter how strong the walls are, you can't stop their ships, then I thought I had won, knowing that one day, I saw a deadly red mist. “

"Black Mist?" Da Vinci asked, "Is it SEELE?"

"IT'S JUST A SMALL PART OF SEEELE, NAMED BECAUSE OF THE BLACK FOG THAT FILLS THE PLACE EVERYWHERE THEY GO, THEY ARE STANDING OUTSIDE THE CITY, MOTIONLESS, AND FOR A MOMENT I THOUGHT THAT I HAD MET MONSTERS, BECAUSE THEIR FACES WERE PALE AND THEIR EYES WERE PURE RED," TITUS FROWNED SUDDENLY, "ACCORDING TO THE NORMAL POLITICAL STYLE I THOUGHT THAT THEY WOULD AT LEAST COME AND SHOOT PEOPLE TO NEGOTIATE, ASK FOR SOME SUPPLIES, POPULATION, ETC., BUT THEN I FOUND OUT THAT I WAS WRONG, THEY WERE WAITING NOT TO DEMONSTRATE." “

"It's not a demonstration, what's that for?"

"He's giving us time to run for his life, to be precise, for the civilians in my city, but apparently Rome was a little bit united at that time, and of course it may have been scared, and even the Cree couldn't figure out the situation, and no one moved, so ........"

Leonardo da Vinci's spine lit up, and he almost guessed Titus' words.

"So no one survived," Titus was terrified even after a thousand years of recalling that memory, "the leader of the attack was a young man with a thin face, a tall figure, and gray hair, who looked sickly, as if he had not had enough to eat, but he was a nightmare, a real nightmare. ”

"Who is he?" Da Vinci looked sad as Titus recalled.

"His name is Shrike, and some call him the butcher bird, and the first time I saw him was strange, because he didn't bring any weapons, he didn't say anything, he lived like a sick mute, but I just didn't dare to look him in the eyes, I had never seen a creature like that, and he was expecting it in the face of my army, and I was sure. ”

"What to expect?" Da Vinci asked.

"War. ”

"Then I asked the soldiers to come forward and negotiate, because they have not moved, so I guess they at least have something to ask, but the facts once again proved me wrong, the moment my soldiers appeared, it seemed that a silent horn sounded between them, the attack began, they turned into black fog and walked in easily, our walls were useless, I tried to put the troops in order, but my soldiers could only remain motionless as long as they looked at their eyes slightly, no one escaped their mental control, no matter whether they were young or old, the result was obvious, the original tens of thousands of troops were only left with fragments and limbs, and the stench did not dissipate for several months, the only thing that is still at rest is that the shrike spares the civilians. ”

"They let you go, I guess you can guess what the Kree you said were trying to do, and it's not just treason that you've colluded with them. ”

"Yes I betrayed the world, so they punished me, they turned me into immortality, and then sank to the bottom of the Arctic Ocean with a thousand tons of a new building material called cement, and a hundred years later I got a chance, they chose me to guard this place until they were willing to let me go back, I can't die and can't betray them, we creatures are all connected by magic, and anyone who makes a betrayal ends up being thrown there," Titus pointed to the sun," It is the graveyard of betrayers. ”

After hearing this, Leonardo da Vinci was also a little heavy, firstly, because of what happened to Titus, he did not support this kind of abuse of prisoners of war, and secondly, he began to wonder why such a cold-blooded organization would choose to support Sacred Shield?

"Don't think too much, don't dig too deep, or the next shrike won't be as friendly as it is to me. ”

Titus took the Celestial Egg from Leonardo da Vinci's hand, "It's time to get down to business, the Holy Shield doesn't have enough strength to control this thing, SEELE will keep it properly, humans can't control the gods, but the gods are different." ”

He activated the teleportation panel on the ground, established a number belonging to the Celestial Egg, and threw the egg directly into the door, "The people on the other side will take good care of it, Da Vinci We need you to go back and continue to stick to your post, I think a scientist like you will definitely be able to promote the process of world civilization." ”

"And what about the technology here?" Leonardo da Vinci puzzled, "since you are already so advanced, why don't you pass on this knowledge to mankind?"

"Watch your words," Titus said sternly, and for a moment he went back to the old days when he was still the Emperor, "SEELE's decision is not something you can question," he approached Leonardo da Vinci, "Have you ever wondered what will happen to humans once they get their hands on these technologies?" War, death, chaos, human beings are not aware of it now, they have been floating in the black sea of terror, SEELE is not the one who guards them, SEELE has other goals, you are, scientists, artists, writers, no one can eat a fat man, people's old ideas have been ingrained for many years, only the spread of generation after generation can fundamentally change them, your battlefield is not here, go back, Leonardo da Vinci. ”

..........

The moon is bright and the stars are thin, the deep black of the Red Sea is glowing with a little phosphorescence, and the sea creatures are cruising by, silently, and the whole world is only the sound of rolling waves.

10,000 meters below the ocean, the ultimate dogma

The teleporter activated, sending in a golden orb from the side of the door, resting on the grating platform.

"The Celestial Egg," Zachariah sighed, as he pulled out the egg, the dense lines on it were very similar to the mechanical structure on Apocalypse's body, and the golden surface of the future and antiquity coexisted.

"That's right, there's a newborn god in it, and even the entire planet doesn't have this egg. ”

"That'..... So what are we going to do with this egg, can we really trap a god?" asked the vampire beside him.

"No, we can't," Zachariah said categorically, "no one can trap the gods, but the gods can," he stomped lightly on the floor, smiling, and pulling up the computer's data, "For some unknown reason, the energy of this egg is not enough, and the gods can't hatch yet, so we should find a source of energy for it." Zachariah loosened his purple collar and ordered, "Open the gate, I'm going to the vertical ditch." ”

"Your Excellency!" the vampire startled, "we're not sure if this god ...... yet."

"Shut up!" Zachariah, who was usually mild-mannered, suddenly had a fierce look in his eyes, "I already foresaw the result, and you are not qualified to question me yet!"

"I'm sorry," the vampire quickly knelt on the ground, and although his body had been dead for a long time, he still felt a cold sweat break out of his back.

"Open the door," Zachariah ordered again, he didn't hold the vampire to blame, in fact he knew that some of them were overreacting, mainly because the egg was too important for him to afford to make a mistake.

The platform slowly descended, and directly below it was the sleeping Gallance, "This place is filled with extremely high concentrations of life energy, which is simply perfect for newborns," the platform stopped on a sea of orange liquid, the walls of which had long since been repaired but the shocking rifts were still obvious, "LCL Sea of Life, the only place in the entire SEELE with energy density comparable to that of a star. ”

He carefully placed the eggs on the surface, the heavy metal sphere floating on the liquid only a halfway through.

"One day you will wake up, newborn of the Amenut family. ”
