Chapter 591 Patsy Backstabbed, My Dear Brother, Caesar
At ten minutes past midnight, Caesar, who was supposed to be in confinement, arrived at the place designated by Passi.
That is the crown part of the towering tree in the center of the island.
The wooden platform where Caesar was staying was actually a horizontal branch at the highest point of this towering tree, and above this horizontal branch, there was a clean and straight treetop.
It is not impossible for treetops with a diameter of more than five or six meters to be used as platforms, but they did not do so.
It's not that I don't want to, it's because I can't.
The height of this treetop has exceeded the Nibelung root. From their point of view, this towering tree reaches straight into the sky, with the top blocked by clouds. From the outside point of view, because the island itself is
It is upside down, so the top of this towering tree is actually inserted into the sea.
No matter from any angle, the position of this part of the treetop is very special. It is born within the Nibelung but extends outside the Nibelung. It can be said to be the junction point between the inside and outside of the Nibelung.
In alchemical terms, people generally regard this junction as the door of the Nibelungs.
There is almost no Nibelungen without doors. However, some doors are extremely dangerous and are not a way for guests to pass.
Now, standing in front of this critical point, Caesar raised his head very curiously and looked at the dark blue waves above his head.
"What's this?"
he asked curiously.
Caesar is now inside the treetops. He can reach this very narrow platform by going up the spiral wooden steps. Above his head is the overlap between the Nibelung border and the treetops. Looking up
All you can see is a dark watery glow, like soap bubbles.
In this place, Caesar felt that the gravity had weakened a lot. The waves above his head seemed to be emitting some strange gravitational force. The gravity became smaller and smaller as he went up. The tie on his chest even straightened up against gravity, as if he was about to fall upward.
"This is the top of the World Tree, and it is also the altar for summoning the Dragon King Leviathan."
Behind Caesar, Patsy's voice came.
"Dragon King Leviathan? Is one of the kings of the ocean and water?"
Caesar guessed it immediately.
He didn't know that Su Mo's side had captured a King of Ocean and Water, but among the four great monarchs, only the last two Kings of Ocean and Water had not yet appeared in public, so naturally he would not be wrong.
"That's right."
Percy said without any secret.
"The king's life must be used as a blood sacrifice for God's awakening, and accordingly, a suitable sacrifice must be used as a blood sacrifice for the king's awakening."
Upon hearing this, Caesar sneered.
"Oh, I know you will never change your behavior of using the bones of innocent people to build your own throne. Who are you targeting as a sacrifice this time?"
"you!"
"Oh, how could I just sit back and watch such despicable behavior...wait, what did you say?"
Caesar was just about to open his mouth to interfere with the decision of the Presbyterian Council to stop Patsy as an accomplice. No matter who their target was, no one was born to be a victim.
However, before he had time to express his will, he realized what Patsy was saying after he opened his mouth. Caesar turned around in shock, trying to judge whether this was some kind of prank through Patsy's expression.
At this time——
"laugh!"
The dark knife light flashed, and the hunting knife Dictado, which he had personally delivered to Patsy, jumped out of Patsy's cuff, and then stabbed him directly in the waist, causing blood to splash everywhere.
Gurgling blood flowed out. Under the strange gravity here, these blood flowers and blood beads did not flow down with gravity, but floated in the air, and then gradually accelerated, flying backwards as if they were falling towards the sky.
"What are you doing?"
Caesar turned around in disbelief, holding the handle of Dictado's knife with one hand to prevent Patsy from finishing the attack, and asked loudly.
He did sense something was wrong with Patsy before, but he only thought it was because he was depressed because of his failure to confess his secret love, and never thought that he would actually betray her.
But at this moment, the cold sharp blade thrust into his body broke his inherent knowledge more powerfully than any other evidence. If this was not a backstab, there would be no betrayal in the world.
Facing Caesar's roar and questioning, Patsy's expression was as strange as when Caesar last glanced at him in the morning. He held Dictado's hand firmly. Although he did not continue to exert force, Caesar did not take away his weapon control.
right.
"Didn't I say that I would offer sacrifices to the Dragon King Leviathan?"
While wrestling, he answered Caesar's questions very calmly.
"Am I the sacrifice?"
Caesar immediately realized that the most special bloodline on this island was his own. Although he didn't know why he was so weak as a second-generation species, only an A-level hybrid, but as long as Odin was really his father,
There is no way his bloodline is as ordinary as an ordinary A-level hybrid.
"That's right."
The moment he got this answer, Caesar tried to take action.
Although he has stayed at Kassel Academy for more than a year now, he is not familiar with Chu Zihang. Although Chu Zihang has learned the skills of violent blood, he has not yet had this opportunity. In this case, his
Its strength is even weaker than in the original work, and it can't even evolve Kamamaita into a vampire scythe.
In terms of physical skills and speech and spirit, Patsy, who is known as a war machine, is stronger than him. Not to mention that he is still injured. Even if he fights to the death, the probability of victory is not high.
But no matter how weak your strength is, there is no reason to sit back and wait for death.
He didn't know why Patsy suddenly betrayed him, but until he figured this out, he had to give priority to protecting his own life.
"stop!"
After a loud shout, Caesar unexpectedly took Dictado back from Passy on the spot. Not only that, he also took two steps back in time to distance himself from Passy, barely reaching a point where the confrontation could continue.
state.
After pulling away, Caesar looked at Patsy who was standing motionless in confusion.
The reason why he was able to take back his sword so quickly was not because of his excellent physical skills, but because Patsy didn't stop him at all.
Faced with his vigilance and outburst, Patsy raised his head the whole time, focusing most of his attention on the top of his head, with no intention of continuing to take action.
"What on earth do you want to do?"
Caesar was confused for a moment.
He also raised his head slightly to look at the top of his head, and soon noticed that the blood flowing out of him was floating upward little by little. After blending into the ripples above his head, it immediately turned into a red blood mist and spread out. Other than that, there was no other change.
So he immediately turned his attention back to Patsy, not daring to slack off at all.
"Nothing, just a sacrifice."
Patsy still spoke calmly.
"You mean, this blood is enough?"
Caesar was slightly startled and frowned.
"According to theoretical speculation, as a bait, only a small amount of blood sample is needed to attract the target."
Patsy replied.
"As long as this little blood...then why are you pretending to kill me?"
Looking at the wound on his waist, Caesar suddenly became furious.
Why did he think that Patsy planned to kill him directly, and only needed this little blood for a long time?
"Didn't I say before that you can come to me if you need help? If you ask directly, will I refuse?"
Why should you get stabbed in vain when a problem can obviously be solved through communication?
Faced with Caesar's anger, Patsy shook his head again.
"First, if this blood sample is not enough, I don't mind continuing to sacrifice; second, I don't want to accept your gift, nor do I want to owe you a favor."
When Caesar heard this, his nose became a little crooked with anger.
"You don't want to owe a favor, so you choose to attack me directly?!"
What kind of rogue logic is this!
I'm embarrassed to borrow money, so I just break into the house and rob?
Why hadn't he noticed before that this secretary was actually a psycho!
Faced with Caesar's "You are unreasonable" expression, Patsy's mood was still very stable.
"That's true! Rather than owing favors to others, I prefer to collect my own debts."
"You mean...I owe you this knife?!"
Caesar was stunned, thinking that the other party was crazy.
"That's right!"
Percy nodded calmly as always, and finally shifted most of his attention from the top of his head to Caesar in front of him. Looking at this little golden lion with incredible expression written all over his face, he spoke calmly.
"I have lived like an assassin all my life. I never get angry. I smile when others treat me well, and I also smile when they treat me badly, because there is no need."
"I calculate what the world owes me, and silently kill those who owe me the most, so that there will always be a clean slate between me and the world."
"However, there is only one big debt that has never been paid off. It was so big that I was deprived of my life by that person."
At this point, his two pupils, one gold and one blue, hidden under his bangs, finally faced Caesar head-on.
Under the gaze of Caesar's suddenly shrinking pupils, he slowly spoke out his heart.
"And that person is you! My dear...brother!"
As soon as these words came out, Caesar was stunned.
"younger brother?"
Doesn't this mean that Patsy is his...brother? The two of them are actually blood brothers?
If you think about it carefully, the family has always regarded itself as the result of success that has been waiting for thousands of years. Since there are winners, there are naturally losers.
Obviously, it is impossible for the family to predict his birth in advance, so except for his own special case, he will definitely prepare the regular heir for the next head of the family. It is only because of his own birth that the next heir he prepared before will make way for him.
And according to Passi's words, it is obvious that the man who was supposed to inherit the Gattuso family, but was robbed of all his aura by the unexpectedly born genius brother, and from then on can only be a shadow assistant.
After a moment of astonishment, Caesar suddenly thought of something and looked at Patsy with burning eyes.
"Then mother...who is your mother?!"
There was hope in his eyes.
pity--
"Mother? I don't have that kind of thing."
Percy shook his head lightly.
"In order to prevent you from having any unnecessary fantasies, I have to tell you that although I don't know who the mother who gave me my genes is, I don't know who the mother who gave me my genes is, and I'm not even sure whether it is a real living life.
But one thing that can be confirmed is that I have nothing to do with Mrs. Gullweger, and her precious blood will not be reduced to raising other people's children."
"……Right!"
Caesar was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
With my mother's tenderness, if she had a brother, she would not ignore it, nor would she tell me about it.
"So, we are half-brothers?"
Caesar suddenly said.
With Pompeii's stallion style, this possibility is really high.
In fact, with his stallion style, he should have half-brothers and sisters all over the world, but Patsy is still too few.
I don’t know if it’s because he took good protective measures or because his reproductive ability is poor.
Caesar secretly complained about his stud father.
After hearing what he said, Patsy's expression remained cold.
"No, I am the product of my family's genetic engineering. Although I also carry part of Mr. Pompeii's bloodline, I am afraid that it will be difficult for His Majesty Odin to regard him as his own child. Compared to you, I am closer to the dragon attendant.
position."
Being given a bloodline by the Dragon King, and being given a bloodline by the Dragon King himself, are two completely different ways.
Obviously, except for Caesar, who was the product of the Dragon King breaking the birth restriction, the entire Gattuso family was just a slave.
Therefore, although Patsy is qualified to be the heir of the Gattuso family, he is not qualified to call Odin his father, let alone Caesar, the destined young master.
He knew this, but still insisted on calling Caesar his brother.
"I see... no wonder your title has changed."
Caesar showed a thoughtful expression, and finally realized where the contradiction lay.
Patsy has always had great respect for him and usually calls him "Master", but since he refused to implement the plan, he no longer uses the honorific title, and his attitude has become the same as treating people of the same status.
If you are a person who is sensitive to titles and superiority, you will probably realize that something is wrong in the first sentence. But although Caesar regarded himself as a noble son, he was an easy-going person and was not sensitive to this, so he could not
I noticed Patsy's change of mentality immediately.
"So, in your eyes, I have always been a thief, and this time you attacked me just to take back the life that was stolen from you?"
Caesar asked.
"..."
Patsy looked at him quietly, neither confirming nor denying.
"Huh, if this is the reason...I give up!"
After thinking for a few seconds, Caesar took two steps back again and suddenly raised his hands.
"ah?"
Patsy was stunned.
He thought about many possibilities of confronting this dear brother, but never thought that he would admit defeat so easily.
Where is your pride? Where is your chuunibyou? Don’t you want to be the emperor?
Seeing Patsy's confused look, Caesar spread his hands.
"The position of the head of the family, the inheritance of the throne, the power of the Black King... you can take whatever you want. I have no intention of fighting with you. No matter who this power is left to, I have no intention of fighting for it.
, if my mother knows that I compete with others for this kind of thing, she will definitely be sad."
His tone was very relaxed. He was clearly giving up the power that belonged to God, but it was as if a big burden had been lifted off him.
"As for the important task of revitalizing the Gattuso family, I will naturally leave it to you. Of course, although I will not join the plan and can even help a little, but if you continue to do whatever it takes to attack innocent people for this plan, then I
He is your enemy."
With Caesar's current fighting power, saying such a thing would inevitably make people feel a little funny.
But if he really said that, no one would think he was lying.
Percy was silent for a moment.
Looking at the silent brother in front of him, Caesar raised his eyebrows and his eyes became slightly gossipy.
"Speaking of which, I'm still a little curious. You clearly didn't have this attitude before yesterday, so why did you change so much in one day?"
"No matter whether you have resented me for a long time or not, your attitude has changed too quickly this time. Even with the pressure from Dragon King Su Mo, you should not be able to make up your mind so quickly... What on earth caused you to suddenly start a fight?
The idea? Is it because of the woman you have a crush on?"
A man who had never been very keen on power suddenly wanted to pursue power. Except for the woman he liked, Caesar could not think of any other possibility.
Noticing that Percy's face changed slightly after hearing this, Caesar confirmed that he had guessed correctly and suddenly became more interested.
"I didn't expect to meet the woman you like on this island. What's her name and what does she look like?"
