"According to my information, it is a new weapon developed by the Second Artillery Corps, one of the most mysterious units in the Chinese Empire. The specific data is unknown, but we can make some guesses just by looking at the results of the battles."

"Also, brother, don't forget, the commander of the Second Artillery Corps is an old acquaintance of ours, CC. She's Code, and she doesn't have Momo's kind of trading skills."

VV's pupils contracted, and she immediately understood what was going on.

When he made the deal with Momo, CC's state... shouldn't have meant she wasn't part of Momo's faction yet. Instead, CC's ability was Code, which was completely different from Momo's.

"Ahhhh!"

Enraged, VV instantly tore all the documents in his hand to shreds; he had no reason not to be furious.

It turns out that he was tricked by Mo Mo in the deal five years ago.

Mo Mo not only tricked him, but also played him for a fool!

Not only did he recruit Rollo, the assassin he sent to kill Momo, but he also allowed C.C. to break the constraints of the trade, destroying the cult he had painstakingly built.

The cult not only has children for experiments and a large number of related talents, but also a lot of research materials and sophisticated equipment related to Geass. All of these were created from scratch with his countless efforts.

Now that everything is ruined, why isn't he angry!

“Charles!”

VV's voice was almost ferocious, like the roar of a wild beast, as she said, "We can't let Mo Mo go, we can't spare him. Now is the best opportunity. Since he has fallen out with the Emperor, then we should take advantage of this opportunity..."

"Brother, I think you need to calm down. If you don't have a gun, you can borrow my sidearm."

VV was speechless, staring at Charles in astonishment, and asked, "Charles, what do you mean?"

“It doesn’t mean much, brother. Don’t you usually use suicide to calm yourself down? I can lend you this gun; it’s loaded with bullets.”

With that, Charles handed the gun to VV and then calmly looked at her.

VV looked at the gun in her hand and fell silent, seemingly calming down in an instant. She said, "Suicide is unnecessary. It will only get your clothes dirty, Charles. I don't care if I get dirty myself. You need to maintain your dignity."

"Tell me your opinion. I'd like to hear your thoughts first."

Charles nodded and said, "Brother, we can't afford to mess with Momo."

VV instinctively wanted to retort, but this time, he gripped the gun tightly and held back.

Seeing that VV did not refute, Charles continued, "Since Momo has already broken his agreement with you, if he could attack the Order last time, he can attack the Relics of God this time. Brother, we absolutely cannot touch him before we can counter his super missiles."

VV's furrowed brows relaxed; he had to admit that Charles was right.

The Order is one thing, but now that the construction of the Sword of Akasha and the Elevator of Thought are nearing completion, it's just a matter of time. Although the things in the Order are VV's hard work, they are no longer of much significance.

But the relics of the gods... were the apple of their eyes, the most crucial tool for them to realize their ideals.

The relics of the gods... must not be harmed.

"Brother, even if we can use our power to attack Mo Mo and kill him, who can guarantee that he still has any remaining followers, or that he won't continue to target the Ruins of the Gods?"

“Brother, it’s true that Mo Mo’s power is the weakest right now, but we still can’t make a move against him. On the contrary, we should try to please him, show goodwill, and even take the initiative to make another deal with him if possible, and make it clear that no one around him, including CC, should make a move against the Ruins of God.”

"Besides, even if we really do take action, are we sure we can defeat him? My brother's previous attempt is proof enough."

"Don't forget, although Mo Mo had a falling out with the old emperor, the reason he was able to leave so easily was that he had bewitched the old emperor's daughter, Jiang Lihua, to go with him."

Charles continued, "As long as Jiang Lihua is still by Mo Mo's side, do you think the Emperor will fly into a rage if he sees us lay a hand on his daughter?"

VV scoffed, saying, "The emperor of the Chinese Empire is ultimately just a mortal, an incompetent mortal. If he were truly capable, why would he need to rely on Momo?"

“I agree with that, but now that he’s just a mortal, he has a mouthful of teeth. So we Britannia also have to worry about him going crazy and taking a bite out of us with the help of the Chinese Empire.”

"Moreover, this is something he would inevitably do after learning the secret of Geass."

This time, VV was no longer calm. He asked in astonishment, "Did the emperor also know about all this?"

"It's more accurate to say he already knew. After all, his Geass was planted by your contractor, which your brother sent back then, wasn't it? Here's a video file that he sent over not long ago; it's from a direct agreement with us."

VV was taken aback and said, "An agreement with us? Why would he want to make an agreement with us?"

As he spoke, VV reached for the documents Charles was handing him again, gripping the player in front of him. Strangely, Charles did not let go.

The two hands, one big and one small, paused, holding the player.

"Charles, what does this mean?"

VV looked puzzled, but Charles calmly said, "Brother, may I ask you to die?"

212 This is love.

Although Charles's tone was nothing unusual, as if he were speaking normally, his words made VV freeze.

The two brothers, each holding a player in one hand, fell into silence, staring at each other in the silence.

“Charles, this joke isn’t funny. Are you suggesting I, as your older brother, should die?”

“That’s right, brother, but I think you’ve misunderstood something. Why don’t you watch this video first?”

Charles released his hand, and VV silently took the player and turned on the video.

The video features the old emperor, and it is a monologue by the old emperor.

VV quickly understood Charles's meaning and Charles's desire for him to die.

In the video, the emperor first condemned the attack and then demanded that Britannia hand over the perpetrators and masterminds, but these were all just routines and high-sounding words.

Then, the old emperor revealed his true purpose.

Dealing with Momo.

Yes, to deal with Momo.

This seemed to be beyond VV's expectations. He listened to the old emperor's words in surprise and finally understood the old emperor's thoughts.

The Emperor actually ordered them to bring Jiang Lihua back.

It seems that the old emperor felt he had no way to deal with Momo silently and bring Jiang Lihua back from Momo's side, so he approached Britannia, who possessed the Geass ability, and then had Britannia use the Geass ability.

Whether it's assassination or plunder, the ultimate goal is to bring Jiang Lihua back from Mo Mo's side.

As long as he is brought back to the Emperor, the Emperor's request will be fulfilled.

However, to VV's dismay, the Emperor actually demanded that Britannia take the life of VV, the mastermind behind it all, as a show of sincerity.

"Has this guy gone mad? On one hand, he's asking us to do things for him, and on the other hand, he's demanding that we offer him my head as a sign of sincerity. Who does he think he is, the world's overlord?"

VV's cold laugh did not surprise Charles. He also understood that without the other document in his hand as a guarantee, the old emperor's words would indeed seem like just one person's boasting.

“Brother, why don’t you take a look at this first? As long as we do this, it will be the promise of the Chinese Federation.”

VV took the documents Charles handed her again, glanced at them for a few seconds, and couldn't take her eyes off them. She said, "Has he really gone mad? With so much wealth and even land, fully supporting our war against the EU, he's actually willing to cede Siberia to us directly?"

"But he is indeed very confident and trusts that woman, Pendragon, of Momo. He has already regarded Siberia as his own territory."

“Brother,” Charles said without responding to VV’s question, “you’ve seen his terms too. What do you think of them? If we can help him bring his daughter back, then the Chinese Empire will practically become our ATM. That’s a pretty generous offer.”

"Hmph, do you think this old man who's about to die will admit to his crimes? He's probably planning to take the blame after he dies and leave the spoils to his daughter, isn't he? What a good father."

Charles smiled faintly and said, "A father will always have these feelings. He's different from me; he only has one daughter. We don't need to worry about him breaking the treaty."

"Since he asked us to do something, his daughter will naturally fall into our hands first. With his daughter in our hands, why would we worry that he would go back on his word?"

VV pondered for a few seconds and said, "From that perspective, we can indeed trust him. But Charles, you just said we can't deal with Momo, but now you're saying we still have to deal with him? Isn't that a contradiction?"

“This is not contradictory, brother. Bringing the emperor’s daughter back to his side is not the same as dealing with Momo.”

"Before that, we could have tried to make another deal with Momo, tricked him in the deal, or tried to use some appeasement methods, or even turned that little girl named Jiang Lihua against him. There are many, many ways."

"So, what I value is the potential and the huge benefits it could bring, which is why I discussed it with my brother."

VV thought for a while longer and said, "Charles, you're right. The benefits are indeed huge, and we can't object. Besides, there's a divine relic in Siberia. If we don't have the connection with the Chinese Empire in the future, that could be a problem."

"We can't afford to start another war with the Chinese Empire over the last relic in Siberia, can we?"

“We’ll do as you say, Charles. But there’s one problem: what about the Emperor’s request? Are we really going to take my head with us?”

Charles immediately shook his head and said, "How can that be? Brother, you are my brother. I can't let you really die. I need you, I need your strength. I'm waiting for you to help me achieve our dream."

Upon hearing this, VV smiled gently and said, "Alright, Charles, I understand. You probably want me to die once, and then send it to the Chinese Empire in the form of a video, so that the people of the Chinese Empire will think that I am really dead."

"It seems you've already made up your mind that they only know Geass, not Code."

Charles nodded and said, "Indeed, this was determined through analysis from many sources. If the Emperor knew about Code, how could CC be living so comfortably?"

“That makes things easier,” VV said, twirling the gun in his hand. “Anyway… I’m used to dying. Do we have to die here?”

“This place is fine too. I’ve prepared a camera, so we can make it look more dramatic. By the way, brother, your expression and words should also be more dramatic to increase credibility.”

VV didn't object, but went to the center of the hall. Charles followed, holding up his camera to start recording a video, saying, "Brother, it's time to show your acting skills. I'll have someone cut out the beginning."

VV grinned and said, "Well, it's kind of fun, like when we were kids playing house. Let me think, what kind of expression should I make?"

After thinking for a few seconds, VV's eyes suddenly lit up, and she said, "Let's do it this way."

Immediately afterward, VV's expression softened, a softening tinged with despair. He raised the gun, pointed it at his own head, and said, "Why...why Charles, why are you forcing me like this!"

"It's just the Chinese Empire. Why would you risk my life for a mere transaction? Do you think I'm so worthless?"

"So be it, so be it. Since that's how it is, I have no reason to live anymore."

"Goodbye...no, farewell forever, Charles...my brother."

After saying that, VV fired. The bullet pierced his temple, drawing out a mixture of red and white fluid. Then VV's body fell to the ground, flying into the air.

"Perfect acting, brother, or rather, as expected of brother, he is used to lying, and he can perform like this."

Charles, holding the camera in one hand, walked to VV, who was temporarily dead, bent down, and took the gun that belonged to VV from his hand.

"It's your turn to film now."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

As Charles finished speaking, three people emerged from the dark corner of the hall: two men and one woman.

Their names are Odysseus, Schezer, and Cornelia.

The three men, with smiles almost identical to Charles's, approached him, with Xiu Zaner even taking the camera himself.

"Father, is it worth killing Uncle like this? Uncle's power is very important, isn't it?"
