I'm here to save the world, what are you doing?

[Failure penalty: none]

Lucius:? ? ?

"weightlifting?"

Lucius raised his eyebrows. Isn't the content of this mission too weird and inappropriate?

Wait, the time goes back to ten years ago, because that was when [fate] happened to cast its gaze.

Ten years ago, that was exactly...

Lucius suddenly felt a pang of distress.

Bi Yang, could it be that [Destiny] guy secretly watched Brother Lu lifting weights?

"Plotina, what is your mission?"

Putting aside the absurd thoughts in his mind, Lucius turned to look at Plotina and spoke curiously.

Plotina's pretty face instantly flushed with shyness after seeing the content of the task.

Her eyes also became a little evasive, not daring to look directly at Lucius.

"My...my mission is..."

She stammered, her voice as thin as a mosquito, as if she couldn't speak.

Her fingers were nervously twisting the hem of her skirt, and her toes were restlessly drawing circles on the ground.

"What is it? Tell me quickly."

Lucius felt a little funny. It was the first time he saw Plotina with such an embarrassed expression, and he couldn't help but urge her.

Little Plotina's face turned even redder.

She took a deep breath, then suddenly raised her head, a look of determination flashing in her eyes:

"You, you squat down first!"

Lucius was a little curious, but he squatted down as he was told.

The moment he squatted down, little Plotina suddenly took a step forward, wrapped her arms around Lucius' neck, then stood on tiptoe and pressed her lips hard against Lucius's lips——

[Mission: Forcefully Kiss Lucius]

【Completion time limit: 10 minutes】

[Penalty for failure: death]

Plotina quickly parted her lips, like a scalded kitten, with a hint of shyness and embarrassment in her eyes.

To be honest, if she had a normal body shape, she wouldn't be so shy.

It's just a snack, it's not like you haven't eaten it before.

But the problem was that the size difference between herself and Lucius made her feel the absurdity of driving a big car.

She couldn't help but think of the study materials she read late at night...

"D-Done..."

Her voice was so soft that only Lucius could barely hear it, and it was a little shy.

Lucius smacked his sweet lips, feeling a bit amused and helpless.

Welfare mission?

not bad.

Lucius then took Plotina to the Circus Maximus at Olympia.

The arena was already in chaos at this time.

All kinds of strange creatures are flying in the sky, and the ground is full of people carrying out all kinds of strange tasks.

Some people were dancing wildly, some were singing loudly, and some were fighting with the air...

Lucius immediately spotted the platform in the center of the venue.

He climbed onto the platform and looked at the extremely familiar barbell, a hint of nostalgia flashing in his eyes.

It seems that I will be a big star again today.

He walked forward, exerted force with both arms, and lifted the heavy barbell suddenly.

How to put it, although it looks the same on the outside, its actual weight is a hundred times or even ninety-nine times heavier than the one I lifted as a child!

Oh my god, I wasn’t prepared at that moment and almost sprained my back.

Stereotypes are harmful!

【The mission has been completed! 】

After repeating the cycle nine times, a prompt indicating that the mission was completed appeared in front of Lucius.

The barbell he placed on the ground turned into a laurel branch stuck in the ground.

It is lush and green, emitting a faint fragrance, as if it has just been picked from the tree.

Lucius: ...

So this is the reward?

It feels like he is making fun of Brother Lu.

Although they felt a little puzzled, since the mission had been completed, Lucius and Plotina did not stay any longer.

They quickly summoned their guardians who were still able to fight, and the group quickly assembled and prepared to go to the palace to stop Tiberius.

At this time, Splenda was in complete chaos.

The sky was shrouded in a distorted chaotic aura, with purple-black light flashing from time to time.

Evil demons from the highest heaven can be seen wandering everywhere on the streets. These demons attack anyone they see, and ordinary people have no way to resist them.

Lucius and Plotina encountered few obstacles.

Under the protection of the Sun Knight Mainna, the group entered the deserted land as if they were in an empty place.

Mainna's strength at the tenth level and seventh stage is extremely terrifying. Every time he swings the spear of light in his hand, he can tear a group of demons into pieces.

They reached the palace unhindered.

There was also chaos inside the palace, but it was much better than outside. At least there were the Imperial Guards and the Knights of the Blazing Sun organizing resistance.

At the palace gate, Lucius and Plotina happened to meet Octavia.

She also seemed to be unaffected by the time travel, just like Lucius.

"Young lord! Plotina!"

Octavia's eyes flashed with surprise when she saw the two of them.

"elder sister!"

Plotina quickly stepped forward and hugged Octavia, saying with concern:

"Are you OK?"

"Of course I'm fine."

Octavia stroked her sister's hair, then looked at Lucius and said seriously:

"Young Lord, Tiberius is performing a ceremony in the throne room, and my father has been restrained by the Great Demon of the High Heavens."

"Right now, I'm planning on going to the Central Tower to repair Helios."

"If we can restore the light of Helios, we can significantly weaken the power of the High Heavens."

"But Tiberius..."

"Leave it to us."

Lucius nodded in understanding, a confident glint in his eyes.

"Please, young lord!"

Octavia's eyes also became firm:

"I will repair the artifact as quickly as possible and then come to support you."

"Tiberius has gone mad and is capable of anything. You must be careful!"

After saying that, Octavia rushed towards the central tower with two Sun Knights.

After bidding farewell to Octavia, Lucius and Plotina continued to the throne room.

The Throne Hall is the core of the entire palace and a symbol of imperial power.

But now the throne room has completely changed.

Endless chaotic power surged from all directions, forming a huge vortex in the hall.

Judging from the concentration of chaotic power alone, this place is no different from the Supreme Heaven.

At the highest point of the hall, the throne that symbolizes supreme power has now become the center of the entire ceremony, emitting a heart-pounding dark aura.

In front of the throne, Tiberius had already changed into a luxurious purple imperial robe.

He stood there with his eyes closed and arms outstretched, greedily absorbing the chaotic power surging from the sky.

Under the nourishment of the power of chaos, Tiberius' body is undergoing a visible sublimation.

Complex black runes appeared on the surface of his skin, his hair turned pure purple, and even two barely noticeable horns grew on his forehead.

His extraordinary rank had now reached the ninth level. Eighteen echoes of fate slowly rotated behind his head like divine rings, emitting brilliant light.

However, when Lucius saw this scene, he laughed out loud.

His laughter echoed in the empty hall, sounding particularly harsh.

“What are you laughing at!?”

Tiberius suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes filled with anger.

"I laugh at you, Tiberius."

Lucius mocked mercilessly:

"The old saying is true. Some people don't look like emperors even if they wear imperial robes."

He glanced disdainfully at Tiberius's imperial robe and made further sharp comments:

"Hmm~ He looks like a thief eager to show off his stolen goods."

"you wanna die!"

This sentence completely enraged Tiberius, and the power of chaos gushed out from his body, suddenly condensing into a twisted purple lightning, whistling towards Lucius.

However, since he was undergoing a demon raising ritual, he could not make any big movements, so the power of this attack was limited.

Mainna suddenly stood in front of Lucius, the spear of light in her hand flashed, and she easily split the purple lightning.

"Damn it!"

Tiberius glared at Lucius fiercely and swore with gritted teeth:

"Once I finish my demonic ascension, I'll kill you first!"

"I will tear out all your bones and decorate my throne!"

"Second brother!"

Plotina stood up angrily:

"Why would you do such a thing?"

"Why hurt innocent people? Why betray the Empire?"

Faced with his sister's questioning, the chaotic power in Tiberius suddenly stagnated.

He lowered his head, avoiding Plotina's gaze.

Finally, he suddenly raised his head, his eyes once again filled with twisted fanaticism and hysteria, like a madman abandoned by the world, filled with endless resentment:

"Why? Hahaha! Why!?"

"How can you, who have never been shrouded in shadows, possibly understand my pain?"
