Volume 3 Hello, Eri Chapter 309: Return to the Ruins (Part 2)
"You really have lived your whole life only for your own pride." Chu Zihang said softly.
Not everyone at Kassel Academy likes Caesar. His immature personality, his extravagant spending, and his arrogance undoubtedly fit people's imagination of a rich second-generation.
But he also has his own persistence. He never cares about the world's eyes and lives only to prove himself. Family is a kind of bondage to him. If possible, he does not want to be born in such a place, then he will have enough freedom to realize a life of pursuing self-worth.
"We are all the same. You have no right to criticize me." Caesar shrugged. "You won't allow yourself to die in a place like this. If the Deadpools really attack at all costs, your end will definitely be a blood explosion and then you will completely detonate Jun Yan and die with them. Lu Mingfei can't even find the ashes to put in the jar when she wants to pay tribute."
Chu Zihang rarely smiled, his mouth slightly raised, and in an instant he returned to that cold killer. Caesar was right, that was indeed what he would do. Sometimes the person who knows you best may not be your friend, but more likely your opponent, because he will do everything to defeat you, and he is eager to know everything about you to find your weaknesses.
"If one day in the future you have nowhere to go, you can come to China to find me. My family has some money and can provide you with some funds to start your life over again, enough for you to open a store or something." Chu Zihang loaded the Philosopher's Stone bullet into his pistol. It fit perfectly and was a standard caliber.
"Thanks, but I won't accept it from my opponent. You Chinese people always say that a poor person won't eat food given out of pity. I won't even starve to death and say 'it smells good'." Caesar held a cigar between his legs and blew a provocative smoke ring towards the group of deadpools. "I've been prepared for a long time. I have a card registered to a younger brother in the student union. It contains my own money, which has nothing to do with Gattuso. It's all earned from betting with those rich second-generation Europeans. They bet their beloved cars that I couldn't beat them in the cross-country race, and then they lost the car to me. I exchanged the money for US dollars and deposited it in the bank. The principal came from my part-time job at the school cafe."
"Having a plan means you are really prepared for everything and are putting it into practice, which is a good thing, but where are you going?"
"Let's go to Japan. There's no Gattuso family business here, and we have a good relationship with the Japanese underworld now, right? It's not like we're unfamiliar with the place, and no one dares to ask me for protection money if we open a store. I'm good at cooking, and the Sakura girls will probably like the exquisite and high-end palace desserts." Caesar threw the cigar into the sea, slowly held up the Dick Tudo and held it horizontally in front of him, "But the premise of all this is that we have to get out of here alive first! And save Tokyo City by the way, otherwise there will be nothing!"
His golden eyes burned, and hot white mist rose from his body. The invisible domain spread out and covered the entire space. Transparent and sharp shadows poured out like bullets. In the rapidly flowing wind shadows were hundreds of blood-sucking sickle-weasels. They waved their claws and opened their gun-like sharp teeth, rushing head-on towards the group of Deadpools .
In an instant, screams like ghosts and wolves howling broke out from the group of Deadpools. Some fell from the sky, some rolled in the water, and some frantically bit everything around them, but they could not find what was attacking them. Pieces of scales and flesh that could block bullets were torn off by the claws of the vampire sickle, revealing the solemn bronze skeleton.
The group of Deadpools went completely crazy and rushed towards Caesar desperately. Caesar emptied his last few bullets and rushed towards the group of Deadpools with Dick Tudor.
Caesar didn't have much time to create it, so Chu Zihang took the time to raise his blood burst to the second degree. He underwent a transformation in an instant, and the concept of ethereal power seemed to be firmly grasped in his fingers. He raised his arms horizontally, chanted an ancient spell, and swung his arms forward, releasing Jun Yan by snapping his fingers.
The straight fingers took on the role of guidance at this moment. The high pressure compressed Junyan into a conical fire tornado and sprayed it towards the wall in front. There was no pure explosion, only heat and burning. The wall made a hissing sound. It seemed that what was burning was not building materials, but some living creatures. The whole Takama-ga-hara was weirdly twisted. The Deadpool who was rushing towards Caesar couldn't stand the ground and slipped. Caesar inserted the knife under his feet to stabilize his body.
A hole was torn in the closed wall, and inside was not the outside world, but white bones, surrounded by fascia-like flesh and blood. Chu Zihang's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that they were not in some Nibelungen space similar to Inception, but some kind of living thing?
There was no time to think about it. Jun Yan's power was not enough, so he had to add the Philosopher's Stone. Chu Zihang aimed at the skeleton and fired the special bullet. The outer wall of quartz collapsed, and the pure fire element was exposed to the air. The flame burned fiercely and hit the front. It would not spread in the opposite direction, but extended to the left and right along the entire front like flowing water, igniting all the Deadpools and water flows along the way.
It was truly a magical scene, pure burning was like this, just like the power of the King of Bronze and Fire, the static high temperature produced an effect similar to an explosion but it was not an explosion, the scorching hot air flow penetrated into the pale bones, roasting the squirming flesh and blood until they curled up, like an impact drill digging into the ground, going deeper and deeper, until finally the bones cracked and the entire Takama-ga-hara was turned upside down, and in the strong sense of weightlessness like an earthquake, a gap was finally opened in the closed wall, revealing a deep light faintly.
"Caesar!" Chu Zihang roared. He didn't have much time and rushed towards the light. The village rain swept away the endless stream, cutting the only way out bigger and bigger.
Caesar threw the empty gun into Deadpool's mouth, pierced the mouth closest to him with his sword, and turned around to wade in the water that was above his waist. Since they started fighting, the water level has been rising. At first it was only calf level, but now it has reached half a person's height. If they didn't try to fight to the death, even if they could beat Deadpool, they would suffocate to death due to lack of air.
Chu Zihang lay at the entrance of the cave, trying to reach out to Caesar. The exit that was built with great difficulty was being repaired. At the beginning, Murasame could still compete with it, but now it was recovering faster and faster.
Their fingers finally hooked together, and then they held each other tightly. Chu Zihang used his strength to lift Caesar up, and the two of them used their arms to slam the wall that was about to be repaired. It felt like being swallowed by something, with tight muscles and bones caressing their bodies, and groping the way forward was like being in the belly of a giant snake.
They finally got out of Takamagahara and immediately felt a terrifying sense of weightlessness. This Takamagahara was actually in the sky! Chu Zihang and Caesar fell at the same time, without any foothold.
Below was the vast Black Sea. The two men fell into the sea one after another, and then emerged like dolphins poking their heads out. Next to them was a steep rock wall, and below the rock wall there was a bulge toward the sea. They struggled to climb to this only landing point, landed exhaustedly, and simply lay down with their arms and legs spread wide. Both of them were almost exhausted, and the price of blood burst was heavy. After a short period of improvement, they were greeted by a tide of powerlessness.
Now they had time to observe the real Nibelungen world. Everything was twisted and crazy. All the buildings were hanging upside down, intertwined, and even crowded together in the sky. In the distance, there was an elevated road winding around. It seemed to be the only way in this world. If they wanted to go back there, they had to climb over the cliffs above their heads. However, this was no problem for them under normal circumstances. The academy's training often included outdoor rock climbing.
"Let me lie down for a while before moving!" Caesar gasped heavily.
"No, I think we have to continue to escape." Chu Zihang's face was pale, and his golden pupils reflected the sea and sky in the distance.
Caesar climbed up and took a look, then immediately rushed towards the rock wall with Chu Zihang. They had to climb up even if they had no strength left. If they stayed here they would surely die!
On the distant sea surface, the layers of tides have already begun to emerge. In the world of Nibelung, water is dead water without vitality. It does not flow, has no sound, and does not follow the physical laws of the real world. Natural activities such as tsunamis are simply impossible.
But now the tsunami appeared on the sea far away from the two people, and its scale was much larger than the first wave of the tsunami that hit Tokyo Bay. If that wave was just a tsunami attack imagined by humans, most of the city would be damaged, then this tsunami would be a tide that would change the sky and the earth and destroy the land.
The largest tsunami ever recorded in human history occurred in Lituya Bay, Alaska. The peak height of that tsunami was 524 meters, which was higher than the Oriental Pearl Tower in Shanghai. Now the tsunami is still happening in the distance, but in Chu Zihang's eyes, he has seen that the height of the tsunami is almost connected to the top of the sky, like the Tower of Babel that reaches the sky and the earth. How high will it be if it comes closer? Should it be calculated in kilometers? In the face of a tsunami of this level, no human power can survive. Staying on a cliff above the sea is no different from seeking death. The impact of the sea water is enough to kill them.
"Fuck fuck fuck!" Caesar roared as he unleashed his greatest potential in rock climbing. It felt like a crappy adventure movie where you just escaped from a temple full of ancient corpses, and the next thing you know you've fallen into Jurassic Park, and the meteorite that caused the extinction of the dinosaurs has just fallen from the sky!
At this time, a black helicopter flew over, dragging a lifeline underneath, and the bright light covered Caesar and Chu Zihang.
When they climbed up to the helicopter door exhausted, a pair of hands grabbed their shoulders and brought them into the helicopter.
"Why is it you?" Caesar was stunned when he saw the rescuer who came in time.
"The whole of Tokyo was swept into the Nibelung, and I was also affected." Pasi Gattuso drove the helicopter to quickly increase its altitude, otherwise the terrible tsunami would sweep them in.
"I mean, why are you here?" Caesar and Chu Zihang took off their suits and wrung out the water. This kind of thing would become very heavy when it was stained with too much water, and it felt like wearing a full set of field equipment.
"We are here to provide weapons to slay dragons for Kassel Academy. The White King has awakened, and the Seven Deadly Sins alone are useless. But unfortunately, no one expected that the White King would hide in the Nibelungen and awaken. Our weapons cannot reach here, and the communication with the outside world has been cut off." Percy said, "So the head of the family activated the backup plan. Before taking action, I have to find you first."
Caesar's hand paused for a second. He didn't expect that the bastard Pompey would actually interfere in this matter. According to the family's style, shouldn't they provide weapons and funds, and then applaud Angers as he charged into battle?
The helicopter's altitude instrument panel showed that it had reached 1,800 meters. The tsunami was rushing past them. The white foam of the rapids was like a death knell for the end of the world, heading straight for the viaduct. There was no sound, no alarm, and it only brought death wherever it passed. The height was close to 1,800 meters. It was the largest tsunami in human history. We should be thankful that this terrorist attack happened in Nibelungen, otherwise the whole of Japan would not be able to escape the bad luck. This terrifying tsunami was enough to destroy the entire Tokyo metropolitan area, and Japan's national strength would be severely damaged.
"Tell me what your backup plan is." Caesar looked at Percy.
"Sorry, this content is not available to you at the moment."
A cold knife flashed by, and Dickulato was placed on Percy's neck. There was cold anger in Caesar's eyes. Chu Zihang watched coldly. This was Gattuso's family affair, and as an outsider, it was difficult for him to interfere.
This feeling was terrible. Pompey also came to Tokyo, and Percy was also there, saying that he was here to deliver weapons, which meant that the Gattuso family must know something, but Caesar himself knew nothing. This sounded like a betrayal. The family could indulge Caesar and let him do whatever he wanted, but when it came to the core secrets, a dissolute and rebellious heir had no right to know.
"You won't do anything to me, so don't use this trick. It will lower your image in the eyes of your classmates." Percy glanced at Chu Zihang, opened an incubator next to his seat, and pushed it towards Caesar. "You have worked very hard. Please take a break for a while and wait and see how the situation develops. If you really want to do something, it's not too late to wait until the right time."
The box was filled with a dozen bottles of Suntory beer soaked in ice. This is a local Japanese brand, but because it is relatively cheap, Caesar has never seen it in all his time in Takamagahara. The profit margin of this kind of beer is not high, so it cannot be on the menu in Takamagahara.
"It happened suddenly , so we can't prepare the items you like. Please make do with them," Percy said.
