A comic book about Apostle Awakening

"Oh, actually, I'm a little curious. You know, scientists can't help but have an urge to explore."

"Don't be like this, Da Vinci," Titus clicked on the touch pad, and a long machine rose from the ground in front of them, "If you want to find out the true face of Seele through my old war stories? Come on, I don't know any more about them than you do, the undead, protecting some super ancient Egyptian, that's all we know, but you're not like me, you're free."

"What do you mean? Are they enslaving you?" Da Vinci strode forward and grabbed Titus' shoulders.

"Don't get excited, I know you are a good person, but they didn't enslave me, they just gave me a chance."

"Chance"

"Yes, at that time, I was still the emperor of Rome," Titus touched his chin, his thoughts drifting back to the past. "

"I conquered the Holy Land, conquered the mountains and all my enemies, but it was not enough. An ambitious emperor is not always so sensible sometimes. I dreamed of the whole world."

"Conquering the world is not as simple as conquering a few countries. I understood this when I attacked Jerusalem. I did not have enough troops or supplies, but as fate would have it, one night, a strange ship Flying machines descended on my palace, and I later learned they were from an alien nation called the Kree Empire."

"I guess they offered you something to conquer the planet."

"That's right, Leonardo da Vinci didn't provide much. They were just a vanguard, but it was enough for me. At that time, I swear, I simply regarded them as gods. I have never seen that kind of thing in my life. The terrifying weapon can shatter the strongest tank with just a slight pull of the trigger, and no matter how strong the city wall is, it can't stop their spaceship. At that time, I thought I would win, but one day, I saw a fatal sight. of red mist."

"Black Mist" Da Vinci's face was filled with doubts, "Is it Seele?"

"It's just a small part of the seele. It's named after the black mist that filled the place wherever it went. They stood outside the city, motionless. For a moment, I thought I had met a monster, because their faces were pale and their eyes were pure red," Titu Si suddenly frowned, "According to the normal political style, I thought they would at least come and photograph someone to negotiate, asking for supplies, population, etc. But then I found out that I was wrong. They were not waiting for a demonstration."

"It's not a demonstration, what's that for?"

"He is giving us time to escape. To be precise, he is giving the civilians in my city to escape. But obviously Rome was a little united at that time. Of course, it may be that he was scared. Even the Cree people can't figure out the situation. No one Move, so..."

Da Vinci's back shone as he almost guessed Titus' words.

"So no one survived," Titus was still frightened when he recalled that memory even after a thousand years. "The leader of the attack was a young man with a thin face, a tall body, and gray hair. He looked sick. It's like not having enough to eat, but he's a nightmare, a real nightmare."

"Who is he?" Da Vinci also looked sad as Titus recalled it.

"His name is Shrike, and some people also call him Butcher Bird. I was very surprised when I first saw him because he didn't carry any weapons and didn't say anything. He looked like a sick mute, but I just didn't dare to look at him. Eyes, I have never seen a creature like that, facing my army, he is expecting, I am sure.”

"What to expect?" Leonardo asked.

"war."

"Then I called the soldiers to come forward to negotiate. Because they had been silent, I guessed that they at least wanted something. But the facts once again proved that I was wrong. When my soldiers showed up, it seemed as if a whistle had been blown between them. With a silent horn, the attack began. They turned into black mist and walked in easily. Our city walls were useless. I tried to rectify the troops, but my soldiers could only stay motionless as long as they looked at their eyes. No one, young or old, could escape their mental control. The result was obvious. Only tens of thousands of troops were left with broken corpses and limbs on the ground. The stench could not dissipate for several months. The only one who was still at peace was It was the shrike who spared the common people.”

"They also let you go. I guess they can guess what the Kree people you mentioned want to do. Your collusion with them is not just as simple as treason."

"Yes, I betrayed the world, so they punished me. They turned me into immortality, and then sank to the bottom of the Arctic Ocean along with a thousand tons of a new building material called cement. A hundred years later I Given an opportunity, they chose me to guard this place until they are willing to let me go back. I can't die or betray them. We creatures are all connected by magic. Anyone who makes a betrayal will be thrown in in the end. There," Titus pointed to the sun, "is the graveyard of betrayers."

After hearing this, Da Vinci felt a little heavy. Firstly, because of what happened to Titus, he did not support this kind of abuse of prisoners of war. Secondly, he began to wonder about Seele's purpose in establishing the Holy Shield and why it was such a cold-blooded organization. Will choose to support Holy Shield

"Don't think too much, don't dig too deep, otherwise the shrike won't be as friendly as he is when he faces me next time."

Titus took the egg of the gods from Da Vinci's hand and said, "It's time to get down to business. The Holy Shield is not strong enough to control this thing yet. Seele will keep it safe. It is impossible for humans to control gods, but gods are different." "

He activated the teleportation panel on the ground, established a number belonging to the egg of the gods and threw the egg directly into the door. "The people on the other side will take good care of it. Da Vinci, we need you to go back and continue to stick to your post. I miss you like this." Scientists will definitely be able to promote the process of world civilization."

"What about the technology here?" Leonardo da Vinci wondered, "Since you are so advanced, why don't you pass on this knowledge to humans?"

"Watch your words," Titus said sternly. For a moment, he returned to the past when he was still the emperor. "Seele's decision is not something you can question." He approached Leonardo da Vinci. "Have you ever thought about it?" What war, death, and chaos will happen once humans get these technologies? Human beings don’t know enough yet. They have been floating in the terrifying black ocean. Seele is not the one who protects them. Seele has other goals, you are. , scientists, artists, writers, no one can become fat in one bite. People's ancient ideas have been deeply ingrained for too many years. Only transmission from generation to generation can fundamentally change them. Your battlefield is not here, go back, Daphne strange."

The moon was bright and the stars were sparse, the surface of the Red Sea was deep black with dots of phosphorescence, and marine life cruised by without making any sound. The only sound in the world was the rolling waves.

Under the ocean ten thousand meters, the ultimate dogma

The teleporter was activated, sending a golden sphere in from the other side of the door and stopping on the grating platform.

"Egg of the Gods," Zechariah sighed. He took out the egg. The dense patterns on it were very similar to the mechanical structure of Apocalypse's body. The golden surface had a sense of future and antiquity.

"That's right, a new-born god is gestating here. Even the entire planet is not as precious as this egg."

"Then...then what should we do with this egg? Can we really trap a god?" asked the vampire next to him.

"No, we can't," Zacharias said resolutely, "No one can trap the gods, but God can," he stepped lightly on the floor, smiled, and then called up the computer data, "Because of a certain For unknown reasons, the energy obtained by this egg is not enough for the gods to hatch, so we should find an energy source for it." Zechariah loosened his purple collar and ordered, "Open the door, I Going to vertical ditch.”

"Sir," the vampire was shocked, "We are still not sure whether this god..."

"Shut up." Zacharias, who was usually gentle, suddenly showed a fierce look in his eyes, "I have already foreseen the result, you have no right to question me."

"I'm sorry," the vampire knelt down quickly. Although his body had been dead for a long time, he still felt a cold sweat seeping down his back.

"Open the door," Zachariah ordered again. He did not pursue the fault of the vampire. In fact, he also knew that some of them overreacted. The main reason was that this egg was too important and he could not tolerate any mistakes. .

The platform slowly descended, and directly below was the sleeping Garance. "This place is filled with extremely high concentrations of life energy, which is perfect for newborns." The platform stopped on a sea of ​​orange liquid, and the four walls here Although it has been repaired long ago, the shocking cracks are still obvious, "The lcl Sea of ​​Life is the only place in the entire Seele where the energy density is comparable to that of stars."

He carefully placed the egg on the sea surface, and the heavy metal sphere floated on the liquid, only half submerged.

"One day you will wake up, the new baby of House Amenut."
