At midnight, the whole city of Rome finally quieted down a little.

Ten kilometers outside of Rome, Richard took Caligula to the makeshift command post of Calle and Junius, and then led Ink Shadow and Hattori Chiyo back to Rome.

Arriving at the protective walls of the city of Rome, Richard was engrossed in the view of the city itself.

Well, even though it was night, the scattered fires could still be seen clearly by Richard......

The Pantheon had burned down, and like the Piazza Julius, only ruins remained......

The library collapsed, and Richard, who was standing on a high place, even saw an elderly scholar, clutching a child with a panicked expression and a pile of books in his arms trying to escape......

The fountains, which are usually loved by people and have artistic value, are now glowing with strange blood......

The streets are almost clean now...... The thugs snatched everything they could, and what they couldn't loot was collected by the residents who dared to come out late at night...... The bodies of those who died during the riots during the day were burned in a centralized manner......

The slums of Rome were still silent and dark, and that place was probably one of the safest places in the whole of Rome - no one wanted to provoke death......

Richard suddenly remembered that sentence, some people yearn for Rome all their lives, some people die on the way to Rome, but there are still some people who are born in Rome......

If the first two people were to see the current Rome, would they still have a longing for Rome?

Richard looked deeply at the scene in front of him, and was ready to tell Will as much as possible about this after returning to the Holy Family, so that he could know how important the stability of a country is.

"My lord, the lackeys of the Senate, they have discovered that the legendary legion 'Scipio the Great' has disappeared! they are torturing Tuunus, the leader of the legendary legion 'Scipio the Great', about the whereabouts of the legion!"

While Richard was thinking, a masked assassin wearing a dark blue suit approached Richard and reported to him.

"Oh, Tuunus, I've seen that guy before, he's a life-hungry bastard, and it's not once or twice that he sees the wind and rudder...... His Majesty the Emperor kept him only to facilitate the control of the legendary legion 'Scipio the Great'......"

"That is, we don't need to get him out...... Really?"

"Hmm...... Anyway, the legendary legion 'Scipio the Great' no longer exists...... By the way, can you tell me what happened?"

“...... The day before yesterday, when you ordered us to wipe out the entire Legendary Legion at night...... We all thought you were crazy...... At that time, we all went to Julius Square with the determination to die...... However, when we got there, we found that it was not time to rest, and the whole square was silent...... Then, we found out...... The soldiers of the entire legion lay on the ground and fell asleep...... We effortlessly slit the throats of soldier after soldier until we killed all the members of this legendary legion in our sleep...... Some brothers couldn't bear this pressure and couldn't help but shout, and we didn't have time to stop him...... But something even stranger happened, it was so noisy, but those legionnaires were still asleep, as if they couldn't perceive everything in the outside world......"

"Hmm...... Do you remember who couldn't carry out your orders?"

Hearing this, Richard frowned, interrupted the masked assassin's narration, and asked lightly. The masked assassin shuddered, but quickly adjusted, and said calmly, "Of course I remember, my lord!"

"Okay, then I'll give you another thing......"

"What's the matter, just say, sir. ”

"Before we begin our mission today, be sure to find those people and ask them to help out in the two of our legendary legions outside the city......"

"But they ......"

"No, remember what I said, and since you have done it, don't be merciful...... Even if you kill a group of soldiers who have no power to resist, it's ......."

The masked assassin nodded silently, then bowed deeply to Richard and retreated behind him, into the shadows.

Richard sighed, his own people had not been at war for a long time after the Roman Empire had stopped expanding......

Among these successive generations of people who have not been baptized by war, it is inevitable that there will be people who are afraid of killing...... No matter how well they are trained......

However, time waited for no one, and Richard could not wait any longer. He desperately hopes that his people can grow up as soon as possible to cope with the world after the drastic changes......

"Are you bothered, Lord Richard. Ink Shadow appeared, he took a deep look at the direction the masked assassin left, and said with some hesitation: "Actually, this can't be blamed on them, after all, killing people is not a pleasant thing......

"It's just our clan thinking like this, there are many things you don't know......" Richard shook his head and replied in a somewhat heavy tone: "It is recorded in the ancient documents of the Holy Clan, when our ancestors came to this world, they still did not forget everything that our civilization brought us in the previous world, such as the ...... of etiquette"

Richard looked up at the deep blue night sky with a hint of longing in his eyes.

"We advocate etiquette, morality, this is a tradition that has been passed down in our blood, and it is also the biggest difference between us and the indigenous people of this world...... After we came into this world, much of our knowledge was lost before we could record it, but our parents, when we were young, taught us that we should be grateful for the favor we receive. Respect the stranger and revere the ancestors. Have mercy on the weak, but dare to face the strong with unclean morals. ”

"These are the things that have been passed down in our bloodline, no matter what the Holy Family is, no matter what he looks like when he becomes an adult, but after he was born, nine times out of ten, he was taught these things by his parents......"

"However, the indigenous people of this world are different, and under the long-term slavery of the gods, their thinking has also changed, and they have passed on some traditions in their blood, just like our ancestors...... For example, if he sees something and he doesn't need it, then he goes up and grabs it, for example, he knows that he is not right about something, but he continues to make mistakes in order to bury them...... In our words, it's wrong on top of wrong......"

"That's what differentiates us...... So, guess what's going to happen when the two meet?"

"I'm sure you've heard that when our people first came to this continent, humans and other races were enslaved by the ruler of this world, the Titans. In those ancient times, the mighty Titans took a fancy to our wisdom and wanted to take us into their pockets...... Of course, our ancestors refused and would rather die than give in...... After that great war, we united with other races, including humans, to overthrow the Titans...... But the price we pay is also heavy...... Our divine beasts Qilin, Vermilion Bird, Green Dragon, White Tiger...... All of them died out in the duel with the Titans because their strength was greatly reduced after coming to this world...... Our ancestors, who first came to this world, were also repelled by the power of this world, and their vitality was greatly damaged...... Just after our victory, when we celebrated our victory with so many races, we suffered the most shameless betrayal!"

Richard controlled his breathing, tried to stabilize his emotions, sighed, and said, "I'm sorry, kid, forgive me." I don't want to mention that, it's just ......."

"I know, my lord......" Mo Ying's voice was still very cold, but it was a little warmer than before, and he comforted: "That group of people is jealous of our knowledge and our powerful martial arts...... Betrayed us, and allies of other races when we were at our weakest...... They set a trap at the feast of the strong, and most of the powerful of the Holy Race and other races were brutally killed...... And the murderer who plotted all of that is the gods who now rule this world......"

"Yes, kid...... Remember our history, remember our shameful history!" Richard mentioned it twice in a row before he sighed, turned his head to look into the distance, and asked, "Tell me, what did you do with the corpses of the soldiers of the legendary legion 'Scipio the Great'. ”

"It's simple...... You've said you can't get girls involved...... So before I acted, I broke down Chiyo Hattori. ”

"Well, you're doing a great job. ”

"Thank you for the compliment, sir...... Then I gathered a few people I could trust to help me collect the bodies and hide them in the carriage that I had found. While the night watchman was dozing, he pushed the carriage to the fire where the corpses were burned. The next morning, the cremator saw it, thought it was a body that had not been disposed of, and cremated them all......"

"Not bad...... So, what about the gear?"

"Don't worry, my lord, we have gathered all the equipment on them before this, and at midnight last year, we bundled them up and tied them up to the raft and let them flow out of the city along the high water frame of Rome...... I'm sure I'm on my way to Ivy by now, my lord......"

Ink Shadow replied methodically, and Richard nodded affirmatively after listening.

This child is worthy of being a descendant of the Mo family, and he seems so organized when he thinks about everything......

In the future, let Wildo learn from him......

The equipment of those legendary legions is more than enough to arm an army......

When you return to Ivey Province, you can collect those things and use them to build your own army in the future.

When the time comes, I should be able to let go of my worries about the Kingdom Alliance and my wife......
