Arturia has seen Nero's fragility, but this does not mean that she has lost confidence in Nero. She has to show her cowardice and vent her emotions. Only in this way can she go to the next stage with a perfect mentality. stage.
Nero, she is a girl born for the stage.
Now, isn't it the stage for you to prove yourself? Defeat Julius Caesar, who cannot be ignored in Roman history, and prove that your time has come.
......
"This is really..."
Inside Caesar's inherent barrier, Caesar looked at the rose petals that eroded his own inherent barrier in disbelief.
The erosion of the intrinsic enchantment can only be achieved by the intrinsic enchantment, and the intrinsic enchantment is a great magic second only to magic.
Is it a bad street now?
Chapter 290 The Four Gods...I Don't Need It Anymore
"Miss Nero, are you all right?"
Matthew knocked away a sharp arrow that was attacking Nero in time. It was obvious that both of them had the combat power of servants, but Caesar killed the two of them only through the soldiers in the inherent barrier and the current Roman soldiers. It is tightly entangled, like a bottomless quagmire, which makes people unable to extricate themselves.
"Sorry, but as the emperor, Yu..."
Is this the first time Nero has lost his mind?
It's not because of a headache, it's because Nero is simply absent-minded, she has lost the legitimacy of this war.
Originally, she could fight on the grounds of "for Rome" and "the dignity of the emperor", as long as she wanted to fight, she could have as many reasons as she wanted.
But after seeing the really difficult people, after knowing that Rome will eventually perish, does she really have a reason to stay on the throne with a faceless face?
Britain, which is regarded as a country by itself, will become a country that affects the whole of Europe in the future, and Fujimaru Tachika, as an ordinary person, has shown a will that is not inferior to that of a heroic spirit.
she really...
"It doesn't matter, everyone will make mistakes, as long as you are alive, you can correct it, right?"
"Correction?"
Nero looked at the girl who was waving a shield to block all attacks. The other party seemed to have no worries, pure as white paper.
If you are wrong, correct it, and if you are right, keep it. Good people have to worry about becoming bad, and bad people can also change their mistakes to be good. Everything in the world has two sides, and the most valuable thing about Matthew is that she witnesses the evil but also embraces the good.
"Mash, there are some things that even the emperor can't handle."
Nero understands that even if she can defeat Caesar, Rome has already accumulated a lot of trouble. She has just made a small reform before and has infinite rebound power. If she continues to deepen the reform, even her relatives may no longer be her relatives.
"But as long as people are alive, there is hope, right? As long as they are alive, they can change the future."
Matthew is envious of those who can live. As an artificial human, she has experienced too many inhumane experiments, and used her body to subdue her followers again and again, which made her already short-lived life rapidly consume a small amount of life.
How long can she live? One year, half a year, three months...even shorter.
But Matthew still does not look at the world pessimistically, but cherishes the last time of life. The closer to death, the more the color of life should bloom.
"Alive? Why do these two words make Yu feel breathless?"
Nero held the long sword in his hand, just like what Caesar said before, every move of an emperor like them can already affect future generations.
No one can know whether what they did is right or wrong. Only through the scouring of time can people in future generations evaluate it. Since it is all a matter for future generations, then they should let go of their hands and feet and do it now.
"Caesar, you are right, Yu is indeed not a good emperor, but..."
Confusion no longer appears in Nero's eyes, unlike Caesar, Romulus, Artoria, Fujimaru Tachika...they are not the good people of this era, they can only stand from the perspective of history Criticize her, but who knows the difficulties in Rome today.
They have not investigated the actual situation in Rome, can they make a conclusion for her with a few words?
"Whether this is the 'past' or the 'future', for Yu who lives in this era, this is Yu's 'now'."
Whether it is the past or the future, people living in the present are not things that need to be considered. What Nero has to do now is to grasp the present moment.
For Nero, the moment is... the sword.
"Appreciate the talents of the rest, listen to the thunderous applause! Then praise, praise this golden theater..."
"This is?"
Caesar, as a user of the inherent enchantment, immediately noticed a golden light appearing in this world that belongs to him alone.
It is a golden color similar to that of Romulus, but it is different from the stalwart of the gods. This golden light belongs to the prosperity of human beings.
"This is the magnificent imperial government sung by virgins, and this is... a magnificent stage that belongs to me alone."
The rose petals appeared on the battlefield, and the atmosphere of the original chill was suddenly dyed with a layer of luxury, as if this was not a real war, but a performance to please the emperor.
"Use drama to distort the essence of war? Sure enough, I still don't like you."
Caesar was shocked that Nero could also open the inherent barrier, and was even more angry that Nero brought drama to the sacred battlefield.
This is a place where soldiers bleed, not a stage for anyone to have fun.
Caesar admitted that he did not like either Romulus or Nero.
The three generations of Roman monarchs have distinctive styles and their own values, and their influence on Rome is also extremely profound.
How could such three people be pleasing to each other when they gathered together?
"How can one emperor like another emperor, too much nonsense can damage the name of Caesar."
In Rome, where there was no foreign enemy and the national power reached its peak, Nero's ability to lead troops was indeed impossible to compete with Caesar, but the peak national power gave her another advantage unique to Caesar.
That is, the power of Rome is in her alone, and within this golden theater, as long as Nero wants to, he can create a battlefield that is absolutely beneficial to her.
"The curtain is drawn, at this time... when the show begins."
The "protagonist" started, and a gorgeous stage paved with flowers appeared, and a girl in a translucent long skirt held a sharp sword. At this time, she is the absolute protagonist here, and the protagonist will naturally have the privilege of the protagonist.
Quick, that is fast that cannot be caught by the eyes, Caesar, who is a sword rank, has a very strong attribute template, but he can only capture the afterimage of Nero.
"Emperor's privilege? No..."
That was absolutely unreasonable power and speed, even with Caesar's command level, he couldn't be ready to deal with it immediately.
The emperor's privilege is to enhance a certain aspect of the user's ability to a level that she should not have, but at this time Nero is different. She has strengthened all her abilities, and even more so, has been troubled by her. The headache was subdued.
"You are not an inherent enchantment."
Although the types of Inherent Barriers vary greatly, there are indeed Inherent Barriers like Nero's that comprehensively strengthen themselves, but Caesar has discovered the problem.
In the mutual erosion of the inherent barrier, Caesar felt that although Nero's inherent barrier contained a strong personal will, it was more of something different from human beings. The... divinity I felt in Si.
"Yu itself is art, Yu itself is beauty, and Yu is... the Venus after the Age of Gods."
Simulate divinity with the emperor's privilege, and overlap the concept of God with himself with the inherent barrier. Within this inherent barrier and on the stage paved with flowers, Nero is his own Venus.
The long dress like a dress faded away, and the gold and red armor appeared on Nero's body.
Artoria's curvaceous figure was exposed in the air, and Nero himself showed his body indifferently. Even in the battlefield at this time, many soldiers were dazzled by this beauty.
This trance does not come from pure lust, but a pure appreciation of "beauty".
Even Caesar has to admit that Nero is beautiful at the moment, but this beauty should not tarnish the magnificent battlefield.
......
"Appeared."
Zeus naturally felt the coming of Aphrodite's divinity, which was the purpose of his power, the divinity that inexplicably appeared on Nero.
"You can actually leave already."
Emmanuel naturally knows what this Zeus from another worldline is for.
It is a perfect plan to obtain the discrete divinity of the gods of the Greek gods through this world line, and use this as the core to pull out the gods of Olympus in the body.
"If that's the case, can't I just ask Ares to help?"
Zeus retorted.
If you really want divinity, even if Zeus himself is inconvenient to move, Eros's generational confusion may not help, but Ares, as the parent and son of Zeus, and for such a major event as saving Hera, Ares has no objection reason.
"At this time, your body should be hidden in the 'cat box', and you deliberately created a state of 'death'. In this way, you have actively cut off contact with the outside world. If you bring Ares into the In this state, Eros cannot defend two places by himself."
In fact, Emmanuel understood that it was mainly because of his "human nature" that he was stumbling, even at this time Emmanuel could think of several ways.
Even if, according to Emmanuel, Rome and Greece are plunged into absolute emptiness, Zeus can directly reverse time and space and modify all tragedies that have happened.
Anyway, at that time, he was self-sealed in the "cat box". Even if two Zeus appeared in one time and space, they were in a state where they would never meet, and even the time paradox would not be triggered.
It's just that Zeus wouldn't use this method.
"The sanctity of time cannot be subverted at will. Even the jewel man will not interfere with the process of history, nor will it reverse history, because he understands that if he wants to modify time with his own selfish desires, then he is definitely not human."
Zeus can naturally modify the time at will, and if he wants, he can even create a world where the Age of Gods continues forever.
But once this is done, it will be tantamount to pronouncing that the "world" is just a toy of Zeus, and everything that goes wrong can be adjusted by modifying the time. At that time, the "humanity" in Zeus will dissipate.
"Humanity? Why would a god need humanity?"
Emmanuel was puzzled, and he didn't understand that the so-called redemption must be brought by Jesus. The perfect heavenly father could change the world with his mighty power, but he sent Jesus down to influence the world with a human body. The "Spirit" of God finally led to the result that salvation did not come to the death of Jesus.
"Because there has never been a so-called god in this world."
The moment Zeus' words fell to the ground, a huge golden beam of light shot up into the sky. It was the light of the holy sword's complete release. It was impossible for Artoria to face such a powerful enemy as Romulus easily.
"No gods?"
Emmanuel did not understand that he and Zeus were gods themselves, and their existence proved the existence of gods.
"What is a god? Supreme power? Infinite wisdom? Infinite lifespan? The world gives them the name of 'god' for their unfathomable power. This is us, the creatures that are revered as gods."
Zeus looked at the battlefield in the distance. It was obvious that Romulus had a very high divinity, and he was a child of Ares. He could be said to be the strongest echelon in terms of physique and skills, but he But Artoria couldn't be taken easily.
No, the outcome between the two of them is hard to say now, even if Romulus loses, it is not surprising.
But why is he likely to fail? Isn’t he a god? Isn’t he strong? Is his mind weak?
No, neither.
It's just that his enemies are equal to him in terms of strength, skills, and beliefs, and this is the reason why the two sides are inseparable.
"She has lofty ideals, she has the courage to bear everything, she has an extraordinary background, and she has an upright character, so is she a god?"
"Naturally not."
Emmanuel answered without thinking.
Even though Arturia was born as the "King of Perfection", even though she has the blood of the red dragon, even if she is believed by everyone, she is still not a god.
"Why isn't she? Because there's no divinity?"
"..."
Immanuel is naturally not such a superficial thing as the standard for evaluating gods, not to mention that the so-called divinity is endowed through the emperor's privilege or human word of mouth.
The real god shouldn't be such a superficial thing.
"Then why not change the angle? Perhaps the reason why King Arthur is not a god is not because she is not qualified to be a god, but because her era does not need so-called gods."
Zeus gave his answer. In the age of Artoria's life, the age when the Gods counterattacked, what people need is not a god, but a king who can lead them.
"The fading of the Age of Gods is not just the disappearance of the true ether, nor the bleak end of the gods, nor the mysterious and irreversible decline, but more importantly, human beings no longer need the gods."
People don't need gods anymore, this is the key factor for the fading of the age of gods.
If Jesus becomes the King of kings according to his own destiny, he will bring the so-called redemption to the world, and let everyone return to the embrace of God again.
Then use that person's ability to repair the Great Source, let the true ether fill the surface, and keep the age of gods on the earth, this is not impossible.
Even in the face of possible cut-offs, he can resolve them. This is the ability that a god who has reached this level should have.
"I never deny that human beings are weak. They will rely on beings stronger than them. During the Age of Gods, they will rely on gods. After they become stronger, they will not need to rely on such powerful beings. The king is their next choice. "
In fact, such a feature already existed in the second half of the Age of Gods.
The authority of the gods began to be challenged by the kings, and only then did the Mesopotamian gods plan the Wedge of Heaven, using Gilgamesh, who is both a god and a king, as a wedge to anchor the Age of Gods. Gilgamesh's death also declared failure.
This is one of the real reasons for the retreat of the Age of Gods.
Chapter 290 Five Mary Magdalene
"Man no longer needs God?"
Emmanuel doesn't think so. The so-called need for God is nothing more than shifting the dependence on God to something else.
