Chapter 1016: Rose Emperor (Part 2)
Just when Mashu and Fujimaru Ritsuka were about to talk to the girl in red, Nero, to ask for relevant information because the battle was over, Mashu's expression suddenly changed and he quickly moved to Fujimaru Ritsuka's side. Use a shield in front of you. Before you know what kind of servant the opponent is, it is very necessary to be cautious. Otherwise, if the opponent is an archer, you can launch a long-range attack.
"The other party's followers have retreated."
Seeing that the defeated army disappeared and the aura of the servants disappeared, Mashu immediately canceled the alert, and then told Doctor Roman the information through the communicator.
"Retreat? Then we don't know whether the other party is friend or foe. Forget it, Matthew, let's confirm the current information first." After Roman thought for a moment, he immediately gave the instruction.
"Yes, Doctor Roman."
"It turns out you were not sent by Boudicca, people from the future, forget it, you magicians are always mysterious. I am the Roman Emperor Nero. As for your rewards, I will reward you when I return to the capital. of."
The communication between Mashu, Ritsuka and the girl in red, that is, Nero was very smooth. After all, Mashu and Ritsuka helped her just now, which was regarded as a rescue. Although the main reason for helping her was to provide help in times of need, it was also a rescue. She, the one in Rome who asked Mashu and Ritsuka to help the girl in red, was not only because Shen Fei said that the girl in red was Nero, but also because they were at a disadvantage at the time.
This is the best plan when you are unsure of the enemy's situation. After all, it is better to provide help in times of need than to add icing on the cake.
As for Nero, as the emperor of the Roman Empire, she would naturally not treat meritorious ministers badly. That is to say, she does not have items suitable for rewards with her now, otherwise she would be rewarded on the spot.
"Your Majesty, I wonder who the enemy was just now?"
Knowing that the current place was near Rome, the capital of Rome, and adding the name Nero mentioned just now, Roman felt something was wrong.
You must know this era, but it was an era when the Roman Empire was very powerful. Although Roman had no shortage of enemies, it was really strange that Nero, as the emperor, actually fought the enemies personally near the imperial capital and was still at a disadvantage.
The second one is naturally the Boudica in Nero's mouth. There is only one person who is most likely to appear in Nero's mouth. But theoretically, this person should be Nero's enemy, and in According to Nero, Boudicca was not her enemy, but one of her allies.
"It's an enemy that appears out of nowhere. They claim to be United Rome."
Nero hesitated in silence for a while, and then gave an overview of the enemy's situation. Nero didn't know exactly when they appeared. By the time she got the news, more than half of the cities in the Roman Empire had been conquered. He surrendered to the enemy, and now the enemy has reached the capital.
This is also the reason why Nero appears here, because the Roman Empire is now in danger. The previous wars have caused heavy casualties to her soldiers. This time, she discovered the enemy's patrol, so she took the lead in the expedition, and the result seemed to be a hit. Enemy trap.
Thanks to the appearance of Mash, Ritsuka and the others, they were able to repel the enemy. If Mash and the others had not appeared, her side would have been in danger. Her own safety might be intact, but once the news of her defeat spread, for now, The Roman Empire she controls is deadly,
The territory now controlled by Nero was already suffering from a very low morale due to the continuous retreat of the front line. With the news of her failure as the emperor, the morale of the soldiers may be further reduced, and there may even be large-scale defections.
"How could this happen? Who is the enemy?"
Matthew shouted in disbelief. Compared to Ritsuka who looked a little confused on the other side, after listening to Nero's words, Matthew immediately understood that the force called United Rome was an anomaly in this singularity.
Unlike Fujimaru Ritsuka who is just an ordinary person, Mashu was born as a carrier of sub-servants. She may not know much about other aspects, but in terms of history, she is the type who can be called a top scholar. It is because she knows that she is right I really don't understand this situation now.
Even though this is a singularity, the Roman Empire fell too quickly.
"Enemies, speaking of them, they cannot be called enemies, because they are all emperors of Rome."
Nero looked a little weird when he talked about uniting the enemies of the Roman Empire. Mashu and Ritsuka didn't understand why at first, but after hearing Nero continue talking, they knew immediately.
Rome was able to fall so many cities and overthrow the capital so quickly only because the enemy was also the emperor of the Roman Empire. Caesar, Caligula, etc. all appeared. Facing the previous emperors of the Roman Empire, some people looked away. Voting is a very normal thing.
Strictly speaking, with so many former emperors of the Roman Empire showing up, Nero's ability to persist until now is already very impressive.
This legendary tyrant was very popular in this era, and even the previous emperor could not obscure her glory.
"It seems that the United Rome is the enemy, and those emperors should be heroes."
Being able to figure out the cause of the singularity as soon as they arrived was a good start for Chaldea, and Rome was immediately ready to talk to Nero.
This time the enemy is different from the previous Evil Dragon Hundred Years War against Kurosada. The enemy has a large number of troops. It is difficult to deal with it with only Mashu and Fujimaru Ritsuka. They must cooperate with Nero.
"Your Majesty Nero, uh."
Let Mashu turn on the video device. Roman was about to talk to Nero about the next step of cooperation. However, after seeing Nero's face, he was stunned for a moment, and then turned to look at King Arthur.
Although it was not the first time he saw this face, seeing that Nero's face was almost exactly the same as King Arthur and Black Jeanne, Roman didn't know what to say for a while.
"Foreign magician, what do you want to say?"
Roman didn't come back to his senses until Nero spoke. He immediately threw out irrelevant thoughts and talked to Nero about singularities, human burning and other incidents.
"That is, the emperors of previous generations are summoned heroes."
After listening to Roman's words, Nero took a deep breath and his expression relaxed. Nero was able to lose so quickly before, of course, some people surrendered to the previous emperors, and another reason was that Nero didn't know how to deal with these previous emperors for a while, so he could only retreat temporarily.
In fact, those previous emperors had invited Nero to join the United Rome and become one of the emperors. They jointly ruled the whole of Rome and even the world.
It must be said that this is a very tempting condition, but unfortunately they met Nero. For Nero, she is now the emperor of the Roman Empire. Even if the previous emperors appear, she can't hand over the throne, because Rome can only have one emperor, that is her, Nero.
Before, she thought that the other party was resurrected from the dead, but now she found out that it was because of the Holy Grail and the summoned heroic spirit, so Nero naturally wouldn't worry about anything.
"Cooperation, yes, I will appoint one of you as governor." After listening to Roman's suggestion, Nero immediately said that there was no problem. After Mashu and Ritsuka saved her, such a credit could be appointed as governor.
"Your Majesty Nero, I wonder if you have heard of any powerful magicians in the alliance with Rome."
After reaching a cooperation, Roman immediately asked for information about Leif. Now Chaldea was confused about this crown designation, and had no idea who was behind it. The only person who was involved was Leif. If he could be caught, perhaps he could know who was behind it.
In the Hundred Years War of the Evil Dragon, Roman actually asked Mashu to pay attention to see if Leif could be found.
"Powerful magician? I did hear that there seemed to be a powerful magician over there, but I don't know if it was Leif. It's a pity that the court magician next to me was killed by my uncle with a sword, otherwise he might know some information."
As the emperor of a powerful empire, there is naturally no shortage of magicians around him, and they are all not weak magicians. However, no matter how powerful the magician is, in the face of the heroic spirit, except for a few people, others will be defeated.
Not every emperor will have a person named Merlin as a court magician.
"Is everything alright? I'm going to go back and celebrate the joining of several foreign magicians."
After talking with Roman, Nero immediately waved and prepared to return to the capital. It was a rare victory in a battle, so he naturally had to publicize it.
As he was talking, a soldier led three horses. Although Mashu and Fujimaru Ritsuka had never ridden a horse, their enhanced bodies made them ride horses for the first time without any accidents.
After entering the capital, Nero immediately asked people to publicize the victory. At the same time, he abandoned the horses and took Mashu and Ritsuka with him. Under the escort of the guards, he walked towards the palace. Along the way, Nero also picked up some fruits from the fruit stalls on both sides of the street and ate them. Naturally, Mashu and Ritsuka were also indispensable.
"It seems different from the Nero in the records?"
Following behind Nero, watching her smiling and greeting the vendors on both sides of the street, Mashu looked a little confused by her friendly appearance. Such a Nero would actually be a tyrant.
"Mashu, don't think too much. Historical records never say that Nero will be a woman, and the same is true for King Arthur. After all, it is only human history."
Although Roman was trying to comfort Mashu, in fact, he was a little confused at this time. Even though he was once Solomon, after making a wish to the Holy Grail, he has become a real human being, a human being who looks very useless on the surface.
"Those nobles and people in the Senate may say that Nero is a tyrant. At such a time, ordinary people have no right to speak."
Shen Fei knows the situation of the tyrant Nero the best. Just look at the situation when Qin Shihuang was blackened, and you can understand what happened.
Perhaps Nero is a little extravagant and wasteful. For example, after returning to the palace, Nero immediately ordered his men to prepare a celebration banquet, but this is the norm in this era.
It is ridiculous to measure the situation in the first century AD by the standards of modern society, and strictly speaking, when it comes to extravagance and waste, modern people are even worse.
For example, Stark, before becoming Iron Man, was a playboy who slept with all the magazine cover models. Even so, Stark was still restrained. At least he didn't have a naked party.
"Is that so? I understand."
Mashu is a history master anyway. After hearing what Shen Fei said, he immediately understood what was going on.
"Nero, the emperor's privilege."
While Nero was preparing to entertain Mashu and Ritsuka, Shen Fei was thinking about Nero's imperial privileges. With this inherent skill, Nero could learn any skill she wanted, even divinity.
For example, if Nero wanted to learn to fly a plane, even if she had never learned it, she would learn it in a very short time. There was also the term "calling a deer a horse", which was originally a derogatory term, but if Nero wanted to, she could really call a deer a horse in the Roman Empire.
Even the job of Saber was obtained by force through this skill. To be honest, Shen Fei was very envious of this skill, but he could only envy it. This was Nero's innate ability, and he could not get it at all.
There was also Nero's headache. Even if he had a way to solve it, he could not do it. Strictly speaking, it would be useless to do it. Once the singularity was repaired, everything would become the same.
As for the treatment after the singularity was repaired, it was a good idea, but the result would be to face Alaya and Gaia.
In his previous life, Alaya and Gaia in the Moon World did not exist very well, and their strength did not seem to be very good, as if anyone who came to the Moon World could bully these two little lolis.
However, in fact, this is just a presumption. Alaya and Gaia are actually very powerful. If they use the name of the Celestial Empire, they are the Way of Man and the Way of Heaven.
Although it is far from being comparable to the Way of Heaven in the worlds of Honghuang and Journey to the West, it is still the Way of Heaven after all. Before you surpass their strength, provoking them is no different from seeking death.
Perhaps on the surface of the world, they cannot mobilize too much power to avoid causing too much damage, but don't forget that the Moon World also has the inner side of the world, as well as the Sea of Imaginary Numbers. They may not be unable to get you to the inner side of the world and let the gods besiege you.
In the case of everyone being happy, these two little loli will not interfere too much with outsiders. Even if you go to capture King Arthur or Rin Tohsaka, they will not care. Even if Shen Fei steals the day and saves people who should have died, such as saving Joan of Arc who should have died, as long as it causes the fact that Joan of Arc was burned to death in history, they will not care.
Even if it can benefit these two, they will give rewards, but if you really touch their bottom line, you will see what the Star-made Holy Sword is.
Believe it or not, you will encounter the old sword as soon as you go out, and then you will be given the Sword of Victory of the Oath that has lifted the thirteen seals.
"Your Majesty, there are enemies attacking."
The celebration banquet of Nero, Mashu, and Ritsuka has not been held for long, and soldiers come to report, and this time there are more enemies than before.
When the enemy attacked, Nero immediately gave up the celebration banquet. She was not a person who did not distinguish between the important and the unimportant. Then she prepared to go out again. Mashu and Ritsuka immediately expressed their willingness to help.
"War, Cu Chulainn, you should want to go."
PS: I have read a lot of fan fiction, and they all describe Alaya and Gaia as too weak, with too little presence.
