Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 215: A Change in the Situation

The door opened and Catherine walked into the office. Russen raised his head and said indifferently, "Have you seen Melinda?"

The girl nodded.

'"She invited you again, didn't she? Just like I said, if you want to move to the Rose Empress, I don't mind." Lu Sen leaned back slightly and sat in a comfortable position.

"No." Catherine shook her head and said, "I like this place. If I go to General Melinda's place, my sickle will be chained."

"I know what you want to do. But Catherine, it's not good for you or me."

"Perhaps." "I hope this is the last time we're going to talk about this," Katherine said coolly.

Russen nodded. "Alright, I respect your opinion."

"Have you found any traces of Polidon?"

Catherine shook her head. "He's not on the mothership."

"Of course he won't. Sometimes I even wonder if that guy has the genes of the Blade Demon. In the Demon Tribe, there are very few people as cunning as him." Said Russen.

"That's why he is the head priest of the ten tribes, Wailing Polidon." Catherine said indifferently.

"I'm sure he planned the attack. If nothing unexpected happened, he would bring the slaughterers with him. Originally, he wanted to deliberately show weakness and lure that cunning fellow and his slaughterer out, but he didn't expect Melinda to beat him up. "By now, that fellow should have escaped back to the center of the Blaze Earth with his men. What a pity. Otherwise, there would have been less resistance when we attacked the center of the Blaze Earth." Russen crossed his fingers and his one-eyed eyes shone brightly.

Catherine said disapprovingly, "Sooner or later, the damned will die. It's just a matter of time."

Lu Sen nodded, "He is yours."

"There's one more question. Melinda wants to take Ellen away. What do you think?"

Catherine's gaze was calm. "Unless you want to fight the Queen of Roses or Sirius, there's no need to offend Melinda and Windsor Belo for an insignificant person. Besides, you've said before, that kid's talent is mediocre."

"If it had been two days ago, perhaps I wouldn't have been afraid of offending these two, or even willing to do so. But times are always changing, as if there were no eternal things in the universe." Said Russen.

"Sounds like Marshal Capulo is in trouble?"

"Indeed." Russen said: "Yesterday, there was new news from Babylon." The Williams have already reached an agreement with Bethcodt that the two sides will conduct a number of in-depth cooperation in the field of mo wu and other aspects. This was no different from the alliance. As for the Smith Clan, under such circumstances, this ancient clan had decided to remain neutral. And we don't know if President Mobit has given us the order to do so. "

"I thought Mr. President was on our side."

"If that's the case, he wouldn't be Mobius and he wouldn't be able to hold the presidency," Rousseau smiled.

"But this is only one of them, and most importantly, yesterday Windsor Belo and her Sirius defeated the two alien convoys again. Moreover, our Greedy Wolf Marshal has blasted Silver Spider Sidi into the dregs of the universe with a single shot. This has greatly damaged the Kidds' vitality, so they should not take any action in the near future. So you see, when this news comes back to earth, Windsor Belo's momentum will be like the sun in the sky. "

Catherine's unchanging gaze finally changed. It was as if the Nether River was stirring up waves, and bursts of light surged in her eyes. She took a few deep breaths before calming herself down. "She actually killed Sidi, a Kidd expert who was as famous as Silver Bee Parral!"

"That's right. In that case, Windsor Belo is in the limelight. In this situation, President Mobit will not stand entirely on our side unless he does not want to run in the next presidential election." Russen said, "Well, you're tired, too. Go down and rest."

Catherine said "yes" and turned to leave.

After the door to the office was closed, Russen opened a smart screen on the desk. "As for Alan, perhaps his talent in sequence design is mediocre, but his importance is not that "

A video appeared on the screen of Adele being attacked in the parking lot of the Venus Hotel that day. In the scene, Allen's Blade collided with one of the killers, causing more than ten blood blades to burst out of the killer's body. Russen paused the recording, opened the drawer under the table, and took out some kind of rubbings. There seemed to be some murals on the rubbings. A blade of varying lengths emerged from the Demon Cultivator's body, and his appearance was somewhat similar to that of the assassin in the video.

"Blade of Calamity Could it be that the one in that brat's hand is truly the legendary Blade of Calamity of the Blade Demon? But how did this Blade of Calamity end up on Earth and even given to a little ghost?" Russen shook his head. He could not find any answer to this question.

Alan opened his eyes and felt that his spirit had never been so full. He looked up and saw the veins on the ceiling of the cabin, the wall lights buried in the surroundings, the low-pitched air currents flashing through the ventilation ducts of the room, and his long breathing and constant heartbeat, forming a three-dimensional and rich world. These seemingly separate units were like spider silk, interweaving into a huge spider web.

Everyone, everything is in this net. It is both independent and integral.

His Origin Energy had already recovered to its peak, and after yesterday's battle, his Origin Energy had improved even more. When Allen observed the origin power in his body, he could "see" that the origin power roaring in his veins was like an orange flame. From time to time, blood-red dots of light appeared in these flames. When Alan's attention was focused on these spots of light, they would suddenly explode, releasing an intense flame of Origin Energy that instantly disappeared into the distance, and then condensed into a ball of red light at a certain location in the Origin Energy Sea.

When his mind was focused on the red light, Alan could even hear a roar like that of a Saber Demon.

That was the blood essence that the Abyss Devil praised as it crossed into his body yesterday. The essence extracted from the Devil Cultivator General did not merge with the Origin Energy as usual, but instead formed a ball of bright red light. It was independent of Allen's original Origin Energy, but when it was destroyed, it could be used at the same time as the Origin Energy, forming an inseparable whole.

These balls of light were like additional origin nodes. When they were activated, they would provide Allen with additional explosive power. When used in combat, Allen's attacks were even more elusive.

The Evil Demon Praise was indeed a peculiar Origin Tool. It didn't seem to be used solely on weapons. Alan had already experienced this point. If it wasn't for this Origin Tool, Ellen wouldn't have absorbed the King Snake's blood energy. And now, he had even absorbed the Demon General's life essence. It could be seen that this Origin Tool had a passion for those special and powerful beings.

Ellen got up and went out. Yesterday, he had Major Sawyer of the Black Rose bring the Queen of the Seats to Merlin. The four of them were treated on board the starship. Because the Shadow Stronghold's space was limited, it could not accommodate the sudden arrival of the Rose Empress Legion. This legion could only temporarily be placed in the wilderness outside the stronghold, where soldiers would build temporary camps. As for Melinda and the other high-ranking generals, they were still living on the Empress.

As soon as they left, they bumped into Sonya, who had already changed the armor of the Black Rose Guards. Sawyer was a female officer who had followed Melinda for many years. She was also the captain of the personal guard and was one of Melinda's trusted aides. She did not dare to laugh. When she saw Alan, she only nodded and said, "You're up. Very well. General Melinda wants to see you. Come with me. The general wants to have breakfast with you."

In the Queen's restaurant, Melinda was occupying one of the tables. Here, there was no difference in treatment between generals and other officers, the same food, the same quota. Melinda's breakfast was shabby compared to General Ruthen's table full of food. From the meal alone, one could tell that the two generals had completely different styles.

Overall, Melinda's feeling made Alan feel more comfortable. Apart from being her teacher's friend, Melinda's affinity was also the key. She did not have Russen's aggressive aura. After removing her armor and sword, Melinda, who was tearing open a piece of bread and throwing it into her mouth, was no different from an ordinary girl.

"General." Alan sat down in front of Melinda.

Melinda winked at Sonya, who nodded and left. Melinda smiled and said, "There's no need to be detained. You can call me by my name like Winnie on this occasion."

This was the first time Alan had heard his teacher say that there was a slight change in his expression. "Your teacher and I have known each other for a long time. When she first joined the army, I was already a major. Speaking of which, she was still a soldier who walked out from under me. Who would have thought that Winnie would be so strong? In less than ten years, she would climb up to me and become a marshal."

"But she's still the same. She's been so strong and proud ever since I met her. But no matter how strong she was, she was still a girl. Moreover, her relationship with her family was not good. That's gonna be her weakness, Ellen. You're her student. Although Winnie didn't say anything, she's very nervous about you. I heard that if I hadn't pulled her away when you let General Russen take her away, Winnie would have brought Sirius with her. Melinda put away her smile and said seriously, "So can you promise me?" When one day Winnie is helpless, you have to do everything you can to protect her. She has too many enemies. "

From Melinda's words, Alan read a hint of worry. Although Alan couldn't seem to think of anything worrying about Windsor Belo, he nodded and said, "Of course."

'"I know you're a man of your word, even though I've only just met you. But I've heard a lot about you. With your promise, I'm relieved. Of course, the chances of that kind of crisis happening to Winnie are almost zero." Melinda blinked and said apologetically, "Look at me, you haven't eaten breakfast yet, have you? Let's eat together, if you don't mind our Rose Queen's food being too light."

Ellen did not hesitate to pick up two pieces of bread and put some vegetables and salad in his mouth to chew. He ate calmly and Melinda admired him. After the two of them finished their breakfast quietly, Melinda clapped her hands and stood up. "Let's go. Follow me to the driving range. I heard that your weapon is broken. Coincidentally, I have a knife that should suit you."

"It's called Qianjun. I hope you like it."
