Chapter 1472: Heather Anna, who revisits the old place
Gaius Julius Caesar, the Roman ruler who left a great name in history, returned to his mansion. The flowers and cheers in the squares and streets still seemed to surround him, making his face smile.
He gave a satisfied smile. With the help of his attendants, he removed the highly decorative armor on his body, and sat on his favorite large seat to start thinking about something.
He was thinking about the rule of Rome and his own rule. He had just completed the final step of purging this great country. The two sons of Pompey, the two people who started the rebellion, had been completely defeated by the Roman army. Caesar discovered
His rule over this country has reached an unprecedented peak. There is no longer any triumvirate, and there is no need to set up any consuls to share power. He has become the de facto sole ruler of this country. So this sole ruler
What kind of identity should the ruler of ?
Caesar was thinking that he had no intention or could not find an opportunity to destroy Rome's long-standing parliamentary system, so he would not become an emperor. The most suitable position for him was still the consul of the republic, but that would be the only consul.
, maybe it should have a new name, such as Dictator.
Caesar's thoughts wandered a little, and he seemed to have seen the Republic and his glorious future. He did not know the murder he was about to face, nor did he know that in just a few decades, the man he adopted named
Octavian's adopted son would help Rome complete its transformation from a republic to an empire. He didn't even know that it was happening far away from the human world, the Twilight of the Gods that was ending the rule of the gods. He only knew that an uninvited guest seemed to have broken into his
room, and the guards waiting outside the room made no movement at all.
The window was closed, but a breeze suddenly swirled through the room. Caesar looked up in the direction of the curtains and found two men and two women standing there. These four mysterious uninvited guests were surrounded by a layer of haze.
Through the hazy mist, only the outline of the figure could be roughly seen, but no details on the facial features could be distinguished. They suddenly appeared in the room, as if they had been hiding behind the pillars all along.
Of course, there could be no one hiding in the room. Caesar had carefully confirmed it when he entered the room, and the hazy mist surrounding the two men and two women was enough to indicate something: they had powers beyond human understanding, or they were
Either of gods or evil spirits.
In this era, the activities of gods are not far away from humans. Many kings and priests have at least two or three experiences with gods in their lives. Caesar is of course no exception, so he calmed down quickly and kept to himself.
The greatest dignity a human being can maintain at this moment: "What do you want from me?"
He did not ask the names of the two men and women in front of him, who was from where, because according to common sense, it was meaningless to ask such questions to a guy with extraordinary power, and might even cause unnecessary disaster.
Hasselblad took a step forward: "Gaius Julius Caesar, we want to ask you some questions."
Caesar's eyes glanced to the side, as if he was looking for something that could be used as a weapon, but he did not hesitate: "Ask."
"Have you ever heard of the name Vivian Ancesta," Hasselblad asked. "She is a member of the gods, but she should be traveling in your kingdom at the moment."
Caesar's eyes that were wandering around froze for an instant, and then he began to show a strange look on his face. The look was a little angry and awkward, but he tried hard to control his expression at the same time.
Good enough not to lose his grace.
Hao Ren was hiding in the magic fog. Looking at Caesar's expression, he knew what was going on: it seemed that Vivian had kicked the Lord into the moat once... Although it was quite unfair to Caesar, Hao Ren felt that it was unfair.
This is good news, it means that the other party has already contacted Vivian.
It makes sense for Hao Ren to choose to come to Caesar to inquire about the situation, because he had heard it before when chatting with Vivian. The latter knew Caesar during the Roman Republic and had dealt with him more than once. The reason why Caesar was able to complete
Vivian's help was even indispensable for laying the foundation of the later Roman Empire and creating great achievements that will go down in history.
Although Vivian was wandering in the world at this time, suffering from the curse of poverty and unable to live a stable life, she still communicated with the locals every time she stayed in a place for a short time. When she was in Rome, she spoke as a prophet.
, a witch and a foreign god, etc., and Caesar, a Roman with keen eyesight and bold speculative spirit, noticed this strange "prophet and god" early on, and paid a high price to Vivian.
Ask for help.
In the Gallic War, Vivian used the power of plague blood to help the Romans defeat their enemies, and allowed Caesar to penetrate all the way into the homeland of the Germans. After this war, the Greek gods uncharacteristically did not attack the Romans.
Any sign of seeking help from foreign gods made Caesar believe that he had found a powerful backer, and he even had the idea of building a temple of blood in the city of Rome.
But just like every "god", Vivian Ancesta also has an eccentric personality and is moody. Caesar still doesn't know where he offended that great god, but he was actually kicked into the moat by the other party...
And now, four more guys who didn't know whether they were gods or evil spirits appeared, calling for that Vivian Ancesta. This made Caesar even more uneasy. He frowned, and suddenly felt that he was involved in these things.
Not a smart thing to do among "gods".
"You don't have to worry," Hao Ren deliberately waited for a while to let Caesar think a few more steps, and then slowly said, "We are her friends, you just need to tell us her whereabouts."
"She did stay in Rome," Caesar said cautiously, "but except when she showed up on her own initiative, I couldn't find her. She is a god, and her whereabouts will not fall into the eyes of mortals."
"You didn't tell the truth." Lily stood up and realized with her animal-like intuition that Caesar was indeed lying.
Caesar's face twitched, and he began to doubt whether the guys in front of him had the ability to detect lies, and then helplessly spread his hands: "I can't bear the wrath of the gods, whether it's yours or hers."
"No one will vent their anger on you," Hasselblad's voice was filled with wonderful magic, and a little subtle spiritual hint was poured into his voice. "On the contrary, Vivian Ancesta will be the one who will express her anger because of your attitude towards you."
We appreciate you even more for our help. Now tell us, where is Vivian?"
Caesar's expression was dazed for a moment, but then there were signs of regaining consciousness: although he was just a human with no special powers, he had a will that surprised even the old demon hunters, and Hasselblad had to temporarily add spiritual suggestions.
Only with the strength can Caesar's will be suppressed.
Caesar's eyes were blank, and he spoke as if he was dreaming: "In the northeast corner of Rome, in a neighborhood next to the city wall, she often appears there. If she wants to see you, she will definitely show up on her own initiative..."
Hasselblad withdrew his magic power: "Thank you for your cooperation."
A gust of breeze blew by, and Caesar suddenly woke up. When he focused his sight again, he could no longer see any figure in front of him.
Looking at the empty room and seeing the exquisite gifts presented to Roman rulers from various places on the table not far away, he suddenly felt a sense of boredom.
"By the way, why didn't you let me appear just now?" On the way to the northeastern city, Hesiana glanced at Hao Ren a little unhappily and told that Caesar that I was looking for my mother, so there was no need for so much nonsense."
"First, as far as I know, Vivian has not brought you to appear in front of Caesar, so Caesar doesn't know that there is a little oil bottle next to Vivian. You can only let him appear suddenly.
It’s even more suspicious. Secondly, your words are too special to ruin the atmosphere. Is it easy for me to pretend to be cool?”
Hesiana thought for a moment, jumped up and bit Hao Ren: "Who are you calling a bastard?!"
Hao Ren fended off the sharp teeth of this naughty child king with ease: "At this time, what else can you be to Vivian than a dragster? A little bat that has just become a spirit and can sweep across the world?"
The two of them didn't deal with each other as usual, even if they had been teammates for a long time in this time and space retrospective journey. Just like this, they found the block that Caesar mentioned: near the city wall, high and low
It is crowded with buildings that look more dilapidated than other places. Two of the houses even have traces of smoke from small fires that have just occurred. Some people are gathering around those two houses to talk about the past two days.
The fire in the kitchens of these two households.
Hao Ren: "...Sometimes I really don't understand whether Vivian can only choose poor places to live, or whether the place she lived has become so poor."
Hesiana sighed: "It must be the second one. This place was quite prosperous before."
Everyone: "..."
After entering the neighborhood, the task of finding the person fell on Hesiana and Lily. The former had a powerful telepathy towards Vivian, while the latter had a shocking dog nose. At this point, Hao Ren was in no way interested.
Compared with the two of them.
"How's it going? Did you feel the breath?" Although he often got angry when he quarreled with the little bat spirit, Hao Ren and Hesiana still talked well when doing business. "Did you think of anything else?"
"I haven't sensed the breath yet, but I did remember some bits and pieces..." Hesiana said in a nostalgic tone, raising her finger to point to a stone wall not far away, "I used to carve on it.
Pass something..."
Lily was sniffing and sniffing here and there. After hearing Hessiana's words, she looked up and suddenly shouted: "Hey, little bat, there's really something on the wall over there!" r
