Chapter 739: The Original Augustus
After listening to the story of the Mother of Dragons, Bai Yu's face was expressionless.
In fact, this kind of thing is not surprising.
Isn't it just that the crown prince forced the palace to usurp the throne and introduced external forces.
Back then, Li Chengqian united with Hou Junji to try to engage Li Er, this kind of thing is in the eyes of Orientals, it is called traditional art.
It is strange that the alternation of imperial power can be safe and stable.
Bai Yu is strange about another point.
"Where are you sure to kill the Roman Emperor?"
"Lao Deng is a saint, and as a Roman emperor, it's not just a demigod who can ***."
"If it had been so easy, Rome would have been destroyed a long time ago."
The Mother of Dragons says you're right.
She looked like she was away from home and completely let herself go: "Find Elyse early, and then go back to modern times together, I can't stay in this backward country for a second!"
It is also the mausoleum of the royal dynasties.
The Mother of Dragons licked her lips and made no secret of her thoughts.
"What stupid greed."
"At that time, I thought that it was enough to just pretend and stumble on the feet of the Roman emperor, and watch the emperor's eldest son kill people."
"No, he was just a general, and he died at the stake before he could recover his country...... or betrayed." Jeanne spoke in a rather heavy tone: "So I have long seen that a monarchy that does not treat the people as human beings is usually just a toy in the hands of some people, you love it, but it may not love you, and even if it loves you, it may change its mind at any time."
Then the next moment, Jeanna opened the lid of the soda and took a sip: "It's still good to be a coke, take a sip to relieve a thousand sorrows, it is worthy of happy water."
To put it more concretely, it is like taking the elevator for the first time in the old man's ring to reach the underground and see the Eternal City.
The atmosphere suddenly became melancholy and solemn again.
Generations of Roman emperors lay here.
"So......"
Bai Yu nodded slightly, and smiled lightly: "Okay, there are indeed few people worth caring about in this era."
"But it's also convenient for us to blend in, once the war starts...... Blood will start flowing from inside the palace, and flames will be lit all over the city, after all, this is a coup d'état from within, so its defenses are loose, and we can go directly inside the palace."
"Once it starts, it's destined to kill a lot of people tonight."
"I'm not going to kill the Roman Emperor, there are so many saints in the Holy Church, and if I were the target of public criticism, I wouldn't have lived for five hundred years."
"This is actually a military coup, right?" Angelica whispered.
"You ......" Bai Yu was surprised, "Why are you so skilled?"
This royal mausoleum is built underground, and you can only feel its grandeur when you step into it.
"The only way for amateurs who lack political prestige to come to power is to rule with high pressure and implement a horrific dictatorship."
"He wants to get the position of emperor, and he is destined to kill, and he will kill rivers of blood."
Although it is underground, there is a false magnificent starry sky.
Jeanne summed it up simply: "The reason why the chaos was caused was actually due to the rebellion of the crown prince, which can be regarded as a reshuffle of political forces within the empire?"
"Who would listen to the crown prince because of a sacrifice and go to the Roman emperor to fight?"
"What's so good about being an emperor?"
Most emperors were keen to build themselves a huge mausoleum.
"After all, I have received the sacrifice, so I must do something."
"He has destroyed himself, and he has killed others."
But for the Mother of Dragons, it doesn't matter, she is a demigod who despises mortals, loves chaos and killing, and admires disorderly chaos, even looking at the dead dragon gods.
"Still, it's possible to get him in some trouble."
Demigods don't pay attention to rules, so it's hard to tell if she's going to give you a poisonous apple or a loud slap in the face.
Roman royal powerhouse.
She scoffed at the insolence and whimsy of a certain crown prince.
"This is enough to weaken the Roman royal family and create chaos in Rome, and it will also make it easier for me to secretly accumulate strength and expand the influence of Esoteric Buddhism."
The crown prince's rebellion is not glorious after all, and once she makes a move, there is a high probability that this black cauldron will be detained on the head of the Esoteric Sect.
"You're still a queen?"
Jeanne talked eloquently, began a more accurate and refined analysis, and even directly named the big nobles in the country and the distribution of their respective factions, mentioned the situation that the five princes and princesses might encounter, and directly sorted out a safe route to the inside of the palace.
Admittedly, it is impossible for her to kill the Roman Emperor directly, but it is still possible to make some trouble for the other party and create some chaos.
……
"No wonder......" Fredrica suddenly understood, "With this layer of physical cover-up, it is impossible for the church and the saints to intervene in it, it is all nobles, citizens, and imperial power that are involved, and the church will never interfere in this step."
"Didn't I say that?" Jeanne ruffled a strand of hair behind her ear: "I did this in my last life, but after the defeat of the army, I fled abroad and formed a government in exile."
Bai Yu looked at the Roman capital, which was already roughly outlined.
Infinite light was dotted with stars, and a brilliant star cast a faint blue light.
The Roman Emperor slept under the starry sky, which was buried underground.
His coffin was at the end of the road.
Although she was not a member of the Holy Church, her friendship with Jeanne had taught her a lot about the traditional rules of the Holy Church, such as the path under her feet, which in the teachings of the Holy Church was not to walk in shoes.
And she had been asked to take off her shoes before she could enter here.
Walk barefoot forward and cross the road, but by this time it was still a long way to reach the main body of the mausoleum, but the surrounding scene was already starting to seem crowded.
Because there are a lot more sculptures...... The history of Rome has been around for hundreds of years, and there is no shortage of heroes of all kinds, and many things used by the royal family are all stored in the aisles here and placed on the altar.
At the first 100 meters, many things can be seen to be quite new, and the further you go inside, the older you become, and many of the objects exude a strong ancient atmosphere, some of which are even spiritual and strange objects, more like a museum and treasure trove than a mausoleum.
Passing through the curtain of starlight, and continuing down the stairs, the starlight seems to be gathered here, and it casts wonderful colors on the ground.
Elyse raised her head, and only then did she suddenly see that there was stained glass above her head, and ancient reliefs were carved on the walls.
In the Western church, it is very fond of integrating the storyline on stained glass and colored wall paintings, using bright colors to outline the sacred and solemn scenes of mythology.
It's just that...... The picture that appeared in her eyes at this time was not the church myth that Elyse thought.
The picture left here is a picture of a man fighting with nine huge beasts, the man is huge in the picture, reflecting his solemnity and divinity, nine different beasts fill the upper part of the mural, each one is completely different, not like an underground creature, all with sharp claws and hideous faces, and there are many villains behind the man, holding bows and arrows to charge with him.
This work is not as solemn as the creation map, but it is full of determination to fight, and one can feel the incompatibility of the two forces at a glance.
Man and beast.
Heaven and earth.
Elysée looked at it for a moment, and then realized that what she saw was only a few tenths.
Because there are many more frescoes and paintings, which are from the collection of the Roman royal family, if not for her possession
The blood of the royal family, throughout his life, he has never seen the royal family of the past generations actually collect such cultural treasures.
They lie in the mausoleum, telling each future heir about the unknown past.
Elysée walked forward in silence, looking all the way until she stopped before the last scroll and relief.
"This is the history of the royal family......
"I see, I see."
It is said to be an initiation, or it is a sudden enlightenment.
She understood some of the obscure elements of history, and the great secrets that the entire Roman royal family had been hiding for a long time.
Elysée whispered, "The Star Cast is the first Roman Emperor."
Her voice was very low, for fear that she would alarm the ancestors of the past generations, or the man who carried the nine beasts on his back in the last picture.
There are many records about the first Roman emperors, but almost all of them focus on his cultural and martial arts, but they cut off his origin and hide his ending.
The same is true for the Star Caster.
He was more like a character like 'Sherlock Holmes' in everyone's minds.
Many people think that the Star Casting Gong does not exist, but is just a made-up character, and its origin cannot be studied at all.
And many rumors say that the Star Casting Gong is from the Augustan clan, which is groundless...... It even points to the fact that it is not only a member of the Augustan family, but also the ancestor of the Augustus family, a peerless macho man who once unified Europa and ended the demigod era.
I think that only such a peerless macho man can do the two great things of building an empire and sealing the starry sky.
It's just that......
Elyse didn't understand, "Why hide history?"
This is supposed to be glorious history, but it has been artificially hidden...... Why are the descendants of successive emperors silent about this?
She also did not see the ending of the Star Casting Gong in the mural.
Subconsciously, Elyse pressed the position of her heart.
In front of the undulating peaks is the Death Omen Invitation.
She didn't think she might be able to use it.
But it's all clearly hugely connected.
Death Omen Invitation, Star Chaser, Star Caster, Augustus, Royal Bloodline, Nine Star Beasts......
She couldn't immediately read the inextricable connections, but she could feel a kind of coincidence and inevitability colliding deliberately, as if fate had guided her step by step to get here.
She didn't even need to do anything superfluous, she just had to keep moving forward and get answers to her doubts.
Look away from the relief.
Elyse continued to climb the stairs.
She didn't know if she had entered the deepest part of the mausoleum, but she could feel the wind blowing from the deepest part of the underground with a little heat.
It's like a living thing.
She walked down the stairs.
What came into view was an ancient, empty field, full of broken walls and crumbling gravel beneath its feet.
In the yellow sand, there seem to be some stone sculptures buried, some of which have collapsed.
"One, two, three, four......" Elysée counted a few, and probably preserved five complete stone carvings under the yellow sand.
There are four of them left, which have collapsed.
She raised her hand and unleashed her magic to blow the yellow sand away, but the head of the exposed stone sculpture startled her.
The almost vivid carving made her feel like she had been stung by a scorpion, and there was a stinging sensation in her eyes.
The stone carvings buried in the sand were all star beasts, which were not difficult to identify.
Elysée just wanted to get around it quickly and continue deeper into the mausoleum.
At this moment, a roar sounded, and the path leaving behind was cut off.
Elyse turned around and found that the heavy stone wall was actually a forbidden magic stone.
The road to come has been blocked, which means the emperor
The trial has begun.
She was already a fourth-order transcendent, and after her soul had been strengthened by the Hell and Dragon Vein Realms, she was much better than her peers.
In the perception of letting go, she stared at the stone sculpture without letting go for a moment.
But in half a minute, the yellow sand is still yellow sand, and the stone carving is still the stone carving, and there is no change at all.
"Are you alright?"
Elysée regretted it as she pronounced these two words.
Danger has come, but not on the ground, but in the sky!
The false starry sky directly above the entire mausoleum suddenly collapsed a corner.
It was as if the ceiling on the ceiling had suddenly collapsed by a fifth.
The pattern of the starry sky seems to be transformed into substance, it is flowing, moving, breaking free, and then falling to the earth.
The stars converged into a vortex and swarmed towards the ground, and the collapsed and fallen parts condensed into concrete gestures in the brilliant brilliance of the stars.
A dazzling beast surrounded by starlight fell into the ancient battlefield, rolling up countless dust.
In the flying sand and rocks, it roared in the sky, and the coercion it released chased after the demigod canonization.
It was a mystery from beyond the stars.
One of the nine ancient Falling Star War Beasts.
A god-killing spearhead who has long been lost in history!
