Chen Motong gently stroked Caesar's stubbled face.

What does Caesar look like in her mind?

Perfectionist Libras are proud and arrogant, and occasionally reveal their inner sensitivity and arrogance.

Of course, this last bit was something that Caesar would never reveal to outsiders.

Chen Motong already knew that Caesar was an insecure and rebellious kid.

What she is best at is profiling. Even if she doesn't deliberately explore Caesar's inner world, they spend too much time together, and there will always be moments where she accidentally peeps into him.

Caesar's email last year was already very illustrative of the problem. This boy who was as proud as the sun in the eyes of outsiders was actually sensitive and vigilant on the inside.

Today is the first time that Caesar reveals his heart in front of her. He longs to walk into the storm, but is also afraid of the unknown in the storm. Is this shameful? Chen Motong didn't think that he was already very courageous, far more courageous than himself. He had long been ready to leave the family, but he...

Before knowing that her father was the Black King, Chen Motong never thought about truly leaving the family. She even breathed a sigh of relief when she learned that the Chen family accepted the marriage of the Gattuso family, because she knew very well that she could not resist that man. At least the future partner is chosen by oneself.

"You already have more courage than me." Chen Motong said softly.

She suddenly remembered the scene that Lu Mingfei let her see deep in the subway station that night.

The solemn church on the cliff was splashed with blood, and in the distance was the endless night. As the last bell rang, a giant dragon stood on the top of the mountain and roared.

The people she was familiar with or had never seen before were walking slowly and with dust on their faces, but they were still walking on the road of resistance.

And where were they then?

In the depths of that nameless valley, the once blond, proud and arrogant man lowered his head and kissed the long-dried girl's forehead, then closed his eyes.

It turns out that's where we ended up.

It turns out that you were by my side in the end.

It turns out that the person I have been looking for is you.

Chen Motong closed her eyes and slowly put her forehead close to Caesar's. Her tone was very soft, like a little girl carefully taking out the secret that had been hidden in her heart for a long time and sharing it with others for the first time. She would She hopes that the person being shared embraces her, and also hopes that the person being shared is the person she has been waiting for in her life.

"What a coincidence. In fact, I am also an insecure guy." Chen Motong chuckled, but the laughter was not as brisk as usual. "Maybe it's because I have vaguely felt that there will be some bad things waiting for me in the future since I was a child. myself, so I have always been afraid. I hope that the person who is finally with me in my life will appear when I need him most, will not disappear, let alone betray, just like a harbor that can accommodate me, Tolerate my occasional nonsense and occasional daze. In fact, I have never been an optimistic person."

Caesar gently hugged the girl in front of him and said in a low voice: "Then we are all cowards. Maybe when cowards get together, we can give each other courage. I will not betray you. , will not disappear inexplicably from your life. As for tolerating your nonsense... These are your charms in my opinion. I enjoy the little temper you play with me, and I also enjoy the journey to find you. Just like BJ. Even if you leave me every morning, I will find you before every dusk."

Chen Motong lightly hit Caesar on the shoulder, dumbfounded: "Are you a pervert?"

"Tolerating and appreciating women's little tempers is the ancestral motto of the Gattuso family." Caesar smiled, "This is not a shortcoming, but a charm."

Chen Motong blinked: "At this time, you will be proud to mention your family?"

Caesar shook his head, and he showed an open-minded smile, which made Caesar, who had always been proud and arrogant, look more broad and heavy, a vastness that could accommodate everything like an ocean.

"My uncle is dead, but he used his death to make me understand a truth." Caesar said softly, "Moths have grown inside the family, and the roots that once supported the family are rotten and smelly. What I have to do is not to leave the family, It’s about cutting off those rotten roots and re-establishing new rules, because I can’t really break away from the family. The blood of the Gattuso family is always flowing in me, which is the same as my mother’s blood.”

"I once tried to change my name to Caesar Guerweger, as if this would disassociate me from the Gattuso family, but this is unrealistic."

"I can't change my origin, so I can only choose to change this family that I hate."

"I once hated and despised the ancient rules of my family, and now my uncle invites me to establish new rules for Gattuso."

Chen Motong was stunned. It turned out that the boy in front of her had undergone transformation before she knew it.

He no longer ran away from the facts that he could not avoid, but chose to face them head-on and adopt a different attitude towards dealing with things.

He couldn't change his origin, so he could only choose to change the family he didn't like.

His uncle invited him to lay down new rules for this decadent and glorious family.

Chen Motong let out a breath: "Back to the topic, what do those old guys above want to do? It seems that you have guessed it in advance, right?"

Caesar's eyes narrowed: "Do you remember Herzog?"

"That pervert in Tokyo?"

"Yes, you may not know that there is another timeline." Caesar considered his words.

"I know." Chen Motong interrupted him softly. Under Caesar's blank gaze, she smiled sweetly, "I also know that I became someone's sacrifice in the end. You kissed my withered corpse, They were buried together in an unknown valley. Next time, remember to choose a more beautiful valley, preferably full of flowers."

Caesar was silent for a long time, and said with a wry smile: "That bastard Lu Mingfei, he didn't tell me all this. But it was the end of the world at that time, and the smoke and dust caused by the nuclear bomb explosion and the volcanic eruption caused by the Dragon Clan covered the sky. , I would like to find one, but the environment does not allow it."

"In the original timeline... did Eliyi and I have the same ending?" Chen Motong's eyes were dull. She knew that Caesar would not mention Herzog without reason.

"Yes." Caesar nodded solemnly, "Herzog is just a test subject. There are people behind him controlling everything. Gattuso is one of them. The people who master these technologies are members of the Elder Council."

"So who is Herzog in this plan?" Chen Motong frowned, "Depending on the situation, it should have been you, but in another timeline, you did not become the Black King, but died with me."

"Lu Mingfei said that I rejected them last time." Caesar said, "And the letter that my uncle left for me indicated that the Senate may have held the idea of ​​revitalizing the family, but the long time, and the relationship between death and death The devastation caused them to change their original persistence, and they have become corrupted."

Chen Motong looked serious: "When will this blood sacrifice begin?"

"Maybe tonight." Caesar said quietly, "They can't wait any longer. Pompeii shot two of them himself not long ago."

"Why did you ask Lu Mingfei to call me over?" Chen Motong glared.

Caesar scratched his head: "I didn't ask Lu Mingfei to call you over. On the contrary, it was Lu Mingfei who asked me to call you over. He said that the big drama was about to begin, but you and I are not the protagonists in this drama. , the Elders are not the protagonists, he allows us not to worry, the point where the Elders will reach is all in someone’s plan.”

Chen Motong raised his head and said, "Why is this bastard becoming more and more like a Riddler?"

"I think so." Caesar agreed.

There were footsteps coming from behind.

Caesar and Chen Motong looked at each other and continued their conversation in a low voice, but the topic changed and turned into a conversation between the man and the woman after they reunited after a long absence.

"Master, the elders invite you to dinner."

Caesar looked around and saw that the person who came was a waiter. He was also the medical staff responsible for taking care of the senators lying in the infirmary.

"I understand, where are the senators?" Caesar said calmly.

"The bodies of the elders can only be maintained by injecting glucose at present, and they no longer have the ability to eat." The waiter paused and looked expectantly, "But soon, as long as the head of the family fully inherits the dragon's blood, the entire Caesar Cato The Suo family will be honored because of you, and because of you you will be reborn, and the elders will also gain eternal life and immortality."

Chen Motong felt a chill in her heart, not only because of the enthusiasm in the other person's eyes, but also because of his lack of concealment.

She was an outsider in the scene. Even though she was Caesar's girlfriend, her identity was still not qualified to share such a big secret, but the other party had no intention of avoiding suspicion.

Caesar was right, it was indeed possible tonight, and those old guys couldn't wait any longer.

Caesar stared at the waiter for a long time, without any fluctuations on his face: "Very good, this is exactly what we expected. Go ahead, we will come later."

The waiter bowed respectfully: "The elders also prepared a grand banquet for the two of them, saying that they will hold an engagement ceremony today."

"Engagement ceremony?" Caesar frowned.

"Yes." The waiter said with sincere eyes, "The current situation is serious, and no one knows the future. Maybe they will all die in the next sacrifice, so they hope to witness your happiness in advance."

Caesar was silent for a moment, nodded and said, "I understand."

"Please prepare for a moment." The waiter bowed again, turned and left.

After the waiter left, Caesar asked in a low voice: "What do you think?"

"You're right, they can't wait any longer. Tonight is the time to take action." Chen Motong said coldly, "Can you get the gun now?"

"No." Caesar shook his head, "They took out all my guns when they came, but just by fighting, those old guys will not be our opponents."

"Speaking of which..." Chen Motong looked at Caesar up and down and said suspiciously, "Why do I feel like you have changed a lot after not seeing each other for a few months?"

Caesar laughed and said: "It has indeed changed a lot, both inside and outside. There is something I forgot to tell you. You said that your nominal father is the Black King, and my mother is also the first generation in a sense. I am Not long ago, I accepted the Nibelung Plan, transformed my bloodline, and inherited my mother's legacy. Now I can be considered a pure-blooded dragon."

Chen Motong's eyes widened: "When I go out to work in the field, you become a dragon?"

She circled around Caesar a few more times, looked at him carefully from head to toe, and said in a loud voice: "My figure is indeed much better than before. I used to be a muscular man, but now I am much more symmetrical."

Caesar looked helpless and didn't know how to answer.

It was still dusk outside the window, but the house was already brightly lit.

This is a splendid palace, built in the Nibelungs below the monastery. The table is filled with sumptuous food, but there are only ten old guys sitting at the table.

Their eyes looked at those tempting delicacies with both greed and indifference.

"The container has arrived." Alpha, the leader, said in a low voice, "Who will become the second Herzog?"

The remaining nine old people remained silent.

Alpha said calmly: "Since you don't dare, then let me do it."

The nine old people looked at each other, but no one spoke, and the atmosphere seemed a bit strange.

"The first ceremony will be for Caesar to receive the pure fetal blood transferred by Chen Motong." Alpha said in a low voice, "The second ceremony will be for us to inherit the new dragon blood in Caesar's body. The ocean and water system Bloodline will fill Caesar’s blood with vitality, which will bring us back to life.”

Someone questioned: "Is the second ceremony really necessary?"

"Yes." Alpha glanced over with cold eyes, "You should be aware of your physical condition. Do you really think that you now can hold the blood that has been purified by the container? Moreover, dragon blood only allows us to be reborn again, which is incomplete. Our authority is not enough to put us on the throne, have we forgotten why we chose Caesar?”

"Alfa, we have not forgotten, we just feel that there is little hope." An old man said slowly, "Caesar's characteristics are innate, which is proof that he was chosen by the world. We once hoped that he could stand on top of the world and lead The family has become the royal family of the world, but you have given us a new proposal. Instead of the disobedient child becoming the king, it is better for us old guys who have dedicated their lives to the family to ascend the throne and share the glory. This proposal is very exciting. But we have been hesitant because we are not sure that this method of blood exchange can really inherit Caesar's 'characteristics' at the same time, and there is no basis to prove that this is feasible."

Alpha said in a deep voice: "Don't be stupid, haven't you noticed yet? Frost has seen through our plan a long time ago, and he has been covering for Caesar. Do you think that after Caesar ascends the throne, he will look back? How to deal with us? Don't forget, it was us who killed his uncle. There is no secret in this world that will never be revealed."

An old man frowned and looked at Alpha deeply: "Alfa, you proposed the plan to kill Frost. It turns out that you have been cutting off our escape route."

Alpha sneered: "The road we are going to take has no way out! Everyone, do you really think that after Caesar ascends the throne, he will still listen to us? We old guys will become his obstacles, no For a king to tolerate an old man like the clan leader telling him what to do, this will only lower his majesty!"

The old men were silent.

Indeed, no monarch can tolerate his ministers telling him what to do, even if these ministers are his bloodline elders.

"Replacement of fetal blood can usurp the power hidden in dragon blood. We have confirmed this." Alpha's tone slowed down, "Then why can't blood replacement inherit Caesar's innate talent? This is worth our gamble. Bet If we win, we will gain the glory of the world. Even if we lose, we can be reborn. With unlimited time after rebirth, we will continue to hide in the dark and study new qualifications that will allow us to seize the throne. "

"Everyone, don't forget, only when you are alive can you look forward to the future!"

Alpha said in a low voice, looking around the audience.

The other old people were silent, seemingly speechless and acquiescing.

Until one person said: "Alfa, you have given up the glory of your family, right?"

Alpha lowered his head, and after an unknown amount of time, he raised his head and said quietly:

"We have dedicated our lives to this family, and now it is time for the family to repay us."
