Chapter 550: Has Caesar been resurrected?
Chapter 550: Has Caesar been resurrected?
"The Empire is over."
Kosoroya, the first legendary figure to betray the Empire, and the head of House Archimonde, said this.
His eyes revealed a sense of letting go of the past.
Kosoroo recalled his once glorious empire, back when he was young...
"I never imagined time would pass so quickly," Kosoroya sighed. He had once been a staunch defender of the empire, until later...
Perhaps this is the erosion that time inflicts on people. If it were my younger self, I would probably have attacked my present self without hesitation.
But he was no longer young; his youthful arrogance had long since vanished, and the heavy burden of responsibility weighed him down, making it hard for him to breathe.
To protect his family, he chose betrayal.
"This is not my fault; the empire has fallen."
Kosoroya muttered to himself.
Just as the beam of light, carrying terrifying power, struck the imperial palace, a vast force swept across the entire empire.
A consciousness awakened.
"Oaths intertwine to form threads, and order binds power."
A voice resounded in everyone's minds, and then the beam of light approaching the palace visibly slowed down.
Then, a majestic figure appeared.
"This is... how is this possible?!"
Kosoroya was instantly horrified; the figure was none other than Julius Caesar.
Immediately afterwards, the figure drew a sharp sword and slashed towards the floating city.
"Old man, you're way out of date!"
As he spoke, another figure appeared, and Jiang Shuzhou broke the sword in two with his bare hands, sending countless fragments flying and riddling the earth below with holes.
Looking at the alliance agreement before him, Jiang Shuzhou's expression turned somewhat solemn.
The awakening of the Covenant was something he had anticipated, but he hadn't expected that this "Caesar" conjured from the Covenant would be stronger than he had imagined.
"You usurper! How dare you plot to seize the throne!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Shuzhou rolled his eyes. Good grief, do you really think you're Caesar?
Jiang Shuzhou was 100% certain that the other party was definitely not Caesar; it was highly likely that the other party simply believed that he was Caesar.
"There's nothing more to say to a despicable person like you!"
Regarding this covenant, or as Caesar said.
After saying that, he continued his attack on the floating city.
Jiang Shuzhou shrugged in response, then, not to be outdone, charged the main cannon of the floating city and drew his Sharp Blade Staff, preparing for battle.
The floating city is to a mage what a divine kingdom is to a god.
Within the area covered by the floating city, the blessings received by mages are extremely terrifying.
In particular, Jiang Shuzhou even created his own magic net.
The entire Ideal City was shrouded in Jiang Shuzhou's magic net, with massive amounts of elements flowing within it, and then being absorbed and used by Jiang Shuzhou.
"It's pathetic that they don't even know who they are."
Jiang Shuzhou scoffed, then launched the first attack.
With a flick of the Blade Staff, a blade of light flew toward Caesar.
Although the other party wasn't the real Caesar, Jiang Shuzhou didn't have any other name to use, so he decided to use this one. Anyway, the real Caesar wouldn't object, since he was already dead.
As Caesar watched the approaching blade of light, his arrogant expression turned solemn.
He could discern that the attack carried the power of many chaotic laws.
If he is injured by this attack, the wound will be extremely difficult to heal.
After giving Jiang Shuzhou a deep look, Caesar swung his sword and slashed directly at the light blade. Using the power of order, Caesar annihilated it, thus blocking Jiang Shuzhou's attack.
"How could you possibly control the power of chaos?"
As the "Big Brother," Jiang Shuzhou should theoretically be the embodiment of order, just like him. However, the chaotic power that Jiang Shuzhou is using now makes Caesar somewhat suspicious.
"You'll understand after I devour you."
Jiang Shuzhou gave a cold laugh.
"Don't even think about it!"
Seeing Jiang Shuzhou's audacity, Caesar's expression turned extremely ugly.
Soon, the two collided again.
With a series of loud bangs, space began to shatter. The solid space of the main plane could no longer contain the two of them fighting.
As for the land?
Although both of them held back and did not pour their power into this useless place, even so, the ground was filled with countless bottomless pits and even many cavities.
Now we know where the underworld came from.
These are probably traces left by those powerful individuals during their battles.
Above, gods are fighting, with Jiang Shuzhou and Caesar locked in a fierce battle, while below, the armies of both sides are locked in a deadly struggle.
A high-ranking soldier of the Empire wildly swung his blade at the warriors of the Soth Society.
With a soft thud, the blade pierced the body, and the soldier killed another warrior.
The empire mobilized all its elite forces and even hired many mercenaries, which is why they are able to temporarily hold their own against Jiang Shuzhou's army.
However, this situation will soon come to an end, because the real elites have arrived.
"charge!"
With a command given, the construct cavalry entered the arena.
Their arrival completely disrupted the fragile balance of the war.
The constructs worn by construct knights make them stronger than ordinary warriors and knights, and the warhorses they ride are carefully selected magical beasts, which, like them, are high-level extraordinary beings.
Such elite forces were few even under Jiang Shuzhou's command, let alone in the crumbling empire. They had no ability to resist and could only be slaughtered by the construct knights.
"For the Empire! The Empire has no cowards!"
The Imperial soldiers roared and charged at the construct knights with their bare bodies.
Such courage is admirable, but the behavior is not recommended; after all, life is only given to us once.
Swish swish.
The construct knights galloped on their horses, reaping heads as they went.
Soon, amidst desperate screams, the last soldier fell.
They fought to the very last moment.
The construct knights temporarily halted their killing spree, observed a few seconds of silence for their victims, and then continued on their way.
They are the heroes of the empire, but the empire is about to fall, and the respect of their enemies will be the only thing they can obtain.
"Look, the empire is crumbling, and order is being rebuilt!"
Jiang Shuzhou suddenly thrust his sword forward, forcing Caesar to retreat.
"This proves nothing, it only proves your brutality!"
Still being stubborn!
That mouth of yours is harder than adamant gold!
"This shows that your era has passed, and a new era has begun. You old codger are nothing but the dregs of that time!"
Jiang Shuzhou relentlessly mocked him, while Caesar remained silent.
However, it was clear to the naked eye that his attacks were becoming increasingly fierce.
