"The everlasting glory of the Chalk City (Pax Romana)!"
After almost allowing the armies of Animusphia and Nero to attack the city, Octavian finally showed his presence.
Almost instantly, everyone, including Animusfia, was surrounded by the rapidly "growing" city.
Are they besieging the city?
Now the city surrounded them.
Like a round pyramid, the original Lutecia was raised layer by layer, and finally became the "spire".
The terrain that was previously changed by Animusfia's magic is now covered by this huge mountain-like tower, and each floor is separated by a huge wall that reaches straight into the sky.
Animusfia's visual inspection showed that the huge wall blocking his and Nero's eyes was hundreds of meters high.
The place where Spartacus and Boudica used to be was separated from Nero by several walls.
The height of each wall was almost twice as high as the previous one. Shadows shrouded Animusfia and Nero, and the sunlight shining directly from the sun was completely unable to cross this city with mountains on its shoulders.
Looking around, except for Octavian sitting at the top of the tower, there is only blue sky.
I am afraid that this magnificent city can still be seen even from hundreds of kilometers away, or even all the way up to the height of space.
It may also be regarded as an extension of the Alps in the hinterland of Gaul.
But Lutetia, which was only comparable to several large cities that still exist in the world, is simply not worth mentioning in front of this "giant tower" that is almost a mountain range.
This is the "great deed" commensurate with Octavian's status as the "real founder of the Roman Empire" and the "original Augustus".
From the beginning, Octavian did not need a mere Seine to rely on for his defense.
There is no need for many soldiers.
To defend the city, he, Gaius Octavian Augustus, was all he needed.
The previous show of weakness and hiding was just to lure Animusfia's soldiers into the area covered by his Noble Phantasm.
In fact, Octavian never wanted to defend from the beginning——————
Although his Noble Phantasm [Pax Romana] has the word "peace" (pax) in its name, Octavian's life achievements have nothing to do with "peace" from beginning to end.
The peace of Rome was built on enterprise and blood.
Although among the achievements sung by future generations, Octavian's more achievements were in establishing the system of heads of state and becoming the first citizen and de facto emperor.
Even Rome was renovated and became a marble city, and even Octavian was proud of it.
But Octavian has never been a conservative king. What is covered under the white marble is the blood and sweat of millions of foreigners and slaves.
Octavian used the name of Rome and the name of Augustus to bring two centuries of Roman Peace (Pax Romana) to the Mediterranean. The prosperity and prosperity of the empire made people forget for a while how this peace was obtained. of.
But not Octavian.
This profound meaning of "peace" is fully reflected in the upgraded Noble Phantasm of Octavian's Heroic Spirit.
The city wall that actively expands outwards says a lot.
Octavian brought under his command everything that Caesar had occupied and everything that Caesar had not occupied.
In other words, he was a greater conqueror than Caesar.
Therefore, Octavian's "Chalk City" is to a certain extent like Caesar's "Yellow Death", able to conquer everything it covers.
Even better than Caesar, crowned with the name of peace.
The shackles were placed directly on everyone's head.
Strong pressure instantly acted on Animusfia and Nero. The distance was completely covered by the tall city wall. Spartacus and Boudica were probably facing the same situation.
It may not even be worse.
At least Animusfia would find it more difficult with every step she took.
It is difficult to imagine the pressure that Boudicca and Spartacus would have faced almost in the center of this chalk city.
The scattered soldiers around Animusfia had already collapsed on the ground and could not move.
It was as if he was wearing shackles weighing a thousand pounds.
Thanks to the fact that Animusfia and Nero were not ordinary people, they were saved from the same fate as the soldiers.
"whispering sound!"
Animusfia gritted her teeth. Although he expected that Octavian still had a backup plan, Animusfia never considered that Octavian's Noble Phantasm would be of this magnitude.
I'm afraid it's no longer a Noble Phantasm that can be measured simply by A, B, C, and D.
It's not the so-called Noble Phantasm that can be established against a country, a city, or an army.
This is the myth that Octavian, as the "original Augustus", was able to independently create on this continent with the help of Rome - it can be called a treasure for founding a country.
"Jupiter!"
Animusfia steeled herself and unleashed her previously invincible magic.
The thick lightning re-illuminated the shadow-shrouded land in an instant, hitting the white marble city wall hard.
But in comparison with this huge city wall, the thunder and lightning, which was as thick as a bucket, were as thin as silk threads.
No matter what, the city wall was still penetrated, but almost in a breath, the city wall with the big hole was restored to white and intact as before.
But the pressure on Animusfiya became heavier and heavier, and even taking another step was a luxury.
Under the pressure, he fell to his knees on the ground, breathing heavily.
The Neptune magic used before had already overdrawn a lot of the magic power that Animusfia had accumulated in the past few days. Now he had no energy left to forcibly break Octavian's restraint.
"Governor!"
Nero hurriedly ran to Animusfia's side and helped him up.
Perhaps because Nero himself was the Roman emperor, the pressure on her was much smaller than that on Animusphia.
"Perhaps I am not as good as you in military strategy, Animusfia——Nero's minister."
Although Octavian was located at the top of the chalk city, it was only a small dot from the perspective of Nero and Animusphia.
But the posture of Octavian leaning on the white marble throne clearly appeared in front of Animusphia and Nero, as if he was everywhere in the city.
"But since the last defeat, I want to let you know that it is not that easy to defeat her master on Roman soil."
The last time Octavian was defeated by Animusfia because he underestimated his opponent, no matter what, he lost.
Octavian also accepted his defeat.
But since he was saved by Michael VIII, although he was a little disdainful, Octavian was just proud, not that "noble".
So Octavian would not let go of this opportunity to avenge his humiliation.
Boudica also struggled to stand on the marble steps, leaning on her sword.
The soldiers around her had already fallen to the ground like reeds after a storm, leaving only her and Spartacus in front of her standing.
Compared with Animusfia and others at the rear, the pressure on Boudica and Spartacus at the front has increased exponentially.
Even if Boudicca is similar to Nero, but as the opposite, as a representative of resistance to Roman tyranny, he also has a certain degree of resistance, but it is still difficult to act under such intensity of oppression.
Nero, who was supporting Animusfia from behind, looked at the giant tower and city wall that reached into the sky with some confusion.
Is this the level that "Augustus" should really perform?
...
The scene fell into dead silence for a while.
...
"well."
After an unknown amount of time, Octavian's sigh broke the silence.
It seems to be mixed with some disappointed expectations, and some joy at being able to realize a long-cherished wish, but more often than not, it is a sigh similar to that of a strong man who breaks his wrist.
"It seems that I won this round."
.......
"Hmm hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha"
Suddenly, a powerful and loud laughter echoed in the chalky city.
"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha--------!"
The laughter grew louder and louder, eventually crossing the city wall and filling every corner of the city.
Just like the roar of a beast.
