Chapter 546: A Moment of Meditation After the Shock
“...... Eh...... Huh?" Cybertron felt like he was a plague god today: "Hmm...... Okay, I got it, go home. ”
"Huh?"
"I guess I can't get out of the city now. Drawing on his own experience, Cybertron explains, "Now I'll dig the cellar right away, and we'll be out in about a month." ”
"You...... What are you talking about?"
"I have a lot of experience in this area, and I have been to cities with tens of thousands of people before...... Of course, that city was already a dead city at that time. Cybertron has a lot of experience, but it's best if no one else in the world has it: "At that time, these spirits will go to wreak havoc somewhere else, and we can come out of the cellar......"
“...... Brother Cyber, I think you're joking, right?"
Full of a sense of justice and full of humanity, Gilgamesh, who can be said to be the perfect protagonist, sighed and pulled Cybertron's back as he turned to leave. It's like persuading his brother who is not angry to find his way back, not to mention that these two blonde haired people are still a match together, after all, both of them are senior cadres (kings), and they have quite perfect achievements in their respective fields.
"Now what we're going to do is, of course, do our duty!"
"Not in his position, not in his politics. Cybertron immediately threw out a fluttering word.
"But you also said that with great power comes great responsibility!" Gilgamesh really regarded Cybertron's words as a golden rule, and a pair of red eyes stared at Cybertron's blue eyes without giving an inch: "I am a demigod, and I think my duty is to protect my people, and thus all innocent civilians." ”
"Uh......" The other party is really full of vitality and full of sense of justice, and where does this sense of responsibility come from? Don't you know that the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility that can be shirk......ed?" Well, since that's what you said. ”
"Hey, hey!-" Seeing Cybertron's compromise, Gilgamesh immediately showed a happy smile: "Sure enough, mortals need to be led to the right path - Cyber, I want to educate you well." Only then can you educate me well at a critical moment, won't you?--Now, brother, I said that the two of us are a perfect match--you just forget it. ”
"Okay, I'll educate you - remember not to talk like that in the future!"
"What do you mean by talking nonsense—"
"Is the flirting over? Levi pushed Cybertron hard, and secretly gave him a punch by the way: "Listen to your tone, you want to take care of things outside the city?"
"Hmm...... I have a lot of experience in this area. Cybertron carefully reflected on his past experience and said, "Since it is a natural disaster, there must be a source, whether it is a virus or some other cause." Anyway, I think it has something to do with the thing that fell from the sky, and what we need to do now is to eradicate this source as soon as possible!"
"Uh...... To be honest, I haven't eradicated such a thing as a natural disaster, and that's what happened when the plague came...... Why do you know so well?" asked Lévy, standing up a step forward, leaning against Cybertron's shoulder with his elbow.
"Because I've done this before, I know better. Cybertron said honestly, "Either there's no magic item (The Elder Scrolls or something), or someone behind the scenes (Black Dragon Princess or something), or it's a way to end up dying together (Heart of the Swarm or something)." ”
"You used to ...... Have you done this?" exclaimed Lina Imbas, "You used to be a necromancer?"
"I've killed a mage before—I've had your brain, and I've seen a mage without intelligence for the first time in my life. Cybertron looked at the sky—
It was truly an incredible sight, as described in a fairy tale, in complete disregard of the laws of the physical world. Unfortunately, this is a completely evil fairy tale - the meteorite smashed down like a comet's tail and streaked across the sky, like a vicious black wound in the purple-red sky, causing the end of the world far away in the sky to bleed.
"Ah, I always feel like something is going to happen if I don't hurry up. ”
――Wherever you go, where you die-
Before Cybertron could get out of the city gates, he naturally encountered a relatively strict problem - the city gates had been tightly closed. The closest gate to the western end of the city is called the Ares Gate, and for good reason. Because this city is the main city of Athena, Athena and Ares, the god of war, fought over whose Athens was. In any case, the end result was that Athens belonged to Athena, and in order to humiliate her brother, Athena named Simon Ares Gate - she meant that her brother was just a gatekeeper, and he wanted to fight with the old lady?
In any case, this gate was generally the main direction of attack on Athens - the sea in the east, the sea in the west, the mountains and ravines in the north, and a large road leading from this side to the east and west, and if it does not explode from this side, I will be sorry for you. It's good to die, this time the meteorite smashed into the wilderness outside Xicheng.
It's good to die, and Cybertron meets a lot of acquaintances here - and of course there are living people.
Alexander, the eagle-eyed son of Philip II, now knew from the look of his face that the military genius was going through the most crucial period of his life. The umbrella that I had been protecting all of a sudden, to be exact, was dead.
Citizens in the city closed their houses and nailed their doors and windows. In the western part of the city, a group of temporarily recruited defense forces were assembled, with only a shield and a spear on their bodies, and no other armor, and were only composed of ordinary citizens. Regular...... I didn't see a few, except for some scarred generals standing here after urgently bandaging them, and some mercenary mages and priests standing in the last row, unknowingly performing their final prayers or meditations.
It was under such a complicated situation that Cybertron came to the West City, where there were only a few hundred military troops.
When you pass through the city gates, you must see Alexander, who is riding on a black steed and commanding the whole situation.
"Oh? I really didn't expect you to be loyal to Greece at this time. But if it's to escape, I'll walk from the north, maybe there's still some chance to escape. ”
Alexander, who is still young, is nineteen years old this year, so the first thing he said when he met Cybertron was to bury the other party first.
"Oh, the prince - or the king of Macedon by now. "Cybertron doesn't matter, what the other party likes to say or say will have nothing to do with him in the future.
"If you get through, if you can't, you don't...... I didn't expect me to have the kung fu to talk to you. Turning off his horse, taking off his Greek helmet and pressing his Greek shuttered skirt, Alexander stroked his beard and said, "But you can't fight with your nerves always on your nerves—yes, my father is dead, and I am now king." However, the enthronement ceremony is expected to wait a little longer. ”
"What a ...... "The last time I saw your father, your father was still alive, and it was only two hours before he was immortal?" and it didn't seem very sad to look at you—the last time I saw your father alive, it was as if you were both studying something: "It's sad." ”
"People die, it's a normal thing. It's a pity that he didn't die at the right time, and I hope I won't. Alexander clenched his fists in front of his eyes, stared at them for a long time, and then continued: "I heard the teacher Aristotle say in the morning, what do you know outside the city?"
"I didn't understand it at the time, but now I understand it. Cybertron shrugged his shoulders, anyway, your father's death has nothing to do with me, I should have said everything that made you disbelieve?
"Father...... Having underestimated the enemy, he led two hundred guards to attack under the leadership of the captain of the guard. A meteorite smashed the Parthenon...... O gods...... Where it has been polluted, it seems that it is destined to be abandoned in the future. In short, the polluted land polluted people's hearts, and a guard attendant went crazy and assassinated his father. Right now...... Countless skeleton soldiers outside the city are on fire, trying to kill the living along with zombies and rotten corpses. ”
......, "Well, the Parthenon is outside the West Side?" Why are you telling me so much detail? There is a problem, there is definitely a problem, and I didn't ask you.
"What is the prince going to do?"
"Wait for reinforcements, then break through and abandon Athens - there is no other way. ”
"Do you want to hear my opinion?--It doesn't matter if you don't want to hear it, I'm going to go to the Parthenon and settle the problems left over by the past. ”
“...... Oh?"
-- Madman and Hero --
It doesn't have much to do with seeing the hero leave in your imagination, because this is not a fantasy world. And in these years, there is no longer a trend of power-type heroes, such as Hercules, Hercules, or whatever. Everyone prefers to listen to the latest versions of the Iliad and Odyssey, and the intelligent hero (Faye?) is more popular. Breaking into the tiger's den alone in Longtan only stays in the golden age of the gods, and the current mortal Bronze Age is a scumbag.
So what happened in the story didn't happen, and Cybertron wasn't taken seriously. It's like watching a madman see Cybertron get out, anyway, there is not much more than him, and there is no less than him.
"I ...... I once heard the truth that 'evil does not defeat good', and it stands to reason that the Wuyue Sword Sect is actually in the same spirit...... Bah, bah, all the gods of the world are in unison. Leaving the city and walking down the avenue of corpses, Cybertron looked around on the horse that insisted on riding on his back, and sighed with some exclamation: "Parthenon is a temple after all, how can it be disturbed by such a heavy evil spirit?"
"God has fallen long ago—too long for anyone to fight against time. Gilgamesh sighed, "Everyone has been conscientious and dedicated to their duties from the beginning, and the will to manage the universe has given you the task of doing so. It is a pity that the years go by, time is running out, more and more time passes, and more and more gods no longer know their original form, the fall, which has become inevitable. I don't want to be an adult like this when I grow up--na, Brother Cyber, so you can honestly follow me and live forever with me, so that we can take care of each other and not become like that. ”
"The master said he wanted to be a man - please respect the master's choice, Miss Gilgamesh. Lily's body twisted, turned over and hugged Cybertron's: "Since he wants to be a mortal, then he must have his own thoughts - mortals, of course, they must be with the mortal race, you say, master?"
"Uh......" Cybertron really didn't expect that the other party would be in the mood to do this in this environment - he could smell the smell of blood and rot, and of course the nose of the monster lady on the other side should smell the heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys. But the other party's "sexual" quality has not diminished at all?
"Anyway...... Lili, I think it's better for us to talk about some things...... Forget it, let's talk about it after this battle. ”
