Edge of the Apocalypse -
Chapter 1190: Ancestor Spirit Call
The wind was whistling.
Horn stepped out of the ship's cabin door and fell straight into the plaza within the high walls of the Iron Prison. His posture was very casual and natural. He did not jump off the ship like an ordinary expert, and did not make any cushioning or other protective movements to land. Horn was more like walking in a garden, as if there wasn't a few dozen meters of void outside the cabin door, but a grand road.
He fell straight down.
When his feet landed on the ground, his knees slightly bent. The force of the fall and the impact on the ground were guided to the ground through this tiny movement, turning into a strong shock wave. With Horn as the starting point, the ground quickly cracked and spread. The invisible force pushed up the concrete poured into the ground layer by layer, eventually forming a shallow pit with a diameter of up to seven or eight meters. Horn stood at the center of the shallow pit, leaning on the crutch, leisurely watching as an army rushed towards him in a panic.
Another person leapt out from the airship. Anna did not have the ability to fall so quickly but without any hindrance. She used her Origin Energy to form obstacles around her body, and then continuously burst forth her Origin Energy to rush to the ground, forming an upward opposing airflow to cushion her fall. Anna landed gently beside Horn like a fallen leaf and blocked him slightly.
The Iron Fist Legion's ground guards stopped forty to fifty meters away from Horn and Anna. The black muzzles of the magic energy rifles aimed at Horn and Anna. Even three bright pillars of light on the high wall overlapped around the two of them, leaving them with nowhere to hide.
A man in charge of commanding the army strode forward. The general on his shoulder showed that he had the rank of major general. The major general took a deep breath when he saw that it was Horn and then said, "Mr. Horn, this is a federal territory. Please leave immediately. I can pretend nothing happened." Facing veteran powerhouses like Horn, Capulo, and Russen, no one was willing to easily clash with them if they didn't have to. This major general was no exception. He didn't even care if his own pretentious ideas would cause him any trouble. However, compared to facing Horn directly, any trouble was not a problem.
Horn said expressionlessly, "If you give Ellen to me, I'll pretend nothing happened."
The major general's expression was ugly. Of course, he knew that this was impossible. In the spirit of doing his best, he bravely said, "Mr. Horn, there must be a misunderstanding. Mr. Allen is not here …"
"Really? Then let me take a walk in the Iron Prison. If Alan is not here, I will immediately leave and bear all the responsibility for attacking the Federation's territory."
The major general was poor and could only say, "That won't do. Iron Prison is not an ancient castle of Ugarte. How can I allow Mr. Horn to visit it at will?"
"Then I can only express my regret." Horn stepped over Anna and walked forward.
The major general's forehead immediately sweated. Seeing that Horn had already walked ten meters, he could only roar, "Fire!"
Instantly, the square lit up, and hundreds of Origin Energy bullets poured towards Horn like a rainstorm. In the midst of the flying flames, the Major General's body also expanded. Several buttons on his uniform popped open at the same time, revealing the swollen muscles beneath. The Federation general leapt towards Horn. Behind him, a gorilla projection with snow white hair and prismatic jingshi on its forehead appeared.
Facing the rain of bullets and the Federation Major General, Horn suddenly stopped. He lifted his cane slightly and stopped abruptly. Immediately, a gray-white ripple pushed forward and spread out. Countless Origin Energy bullets collided with the ripple connection and exploded, turning into small energy storms. The ripples rapidly advanced and instantly landed in the crowd. Immediately, the soldiers of the Iron Fist Legion collapsed in large numbers. The magical energy rifles in their hands twisted and deformed, and they could no longer be used.
The Federation Major General crossed his hands to block the attack. However, before he could regain his senses, his vision blurred. Horn, who was still dozens of meters away, somehow arrived in front of him in the blink of an eye. Horn raised his hand and pointed his cane. His speed wasn't fast, but the major general didn't have time to react. His cane pierced through the gap between his hands and pointed at his chest. The Major General's expression changed, but a huge force surged from Horn's inconspicuous cane.
He let out a muffled roar and flew backwards. The projection behind him shattered, and unrestrained Origin Energy swept across the surroundings, forming a violent storm. The major general fell to the ground and spat out a mouthful of blood. His entire body felt weak, and he was unable to get up for a while. He could only watch as Horn walked past him. He could hardly believe his eyes. Horn hadn't even unsheathed Qiu Yan before he had already severely injured him. How powerful was this?
In the blink of an eye, Horn was already standing in front of the only low building on the plaza. He raised his hand and pointed his cane at the wall of the building, making a light cracking sound. At first, there was nothing unusual about the building, but very quickly, the building began to shake. The frequency of the vibrations increased from low to high. A few seconds later, cracks appeared on the exterior wall of the building. The next second, the exterior wall was shattered into pieces and collapsed into the surroundings. The short building collapsed in front of Horn, revealing the lonely elevator inside.
At this time, another group of defenders rushed over, and the Federation Major General also recovered. There were even a few turrets on the defensive wall that were turning their guns towards Horn's location. At this moment, two sharp screams rang out, and the turret that was turning immediately stopped moving. When a beam of light swept across the turret, it was discovered that the gunner controlling the turret had opened fire on the head and was killed on the spot. Following that, a dazzling river of stars pierced through the sky and landed in front of the rapidly approaching garrison. The soldiers were unable to stand steadily due to the sharp pressure of the knives and fell to the ground one after another. The starry river gradually dissipated, revealing Regis's sword-wielding posture.
The major general's pupils shrank as he saw that Regis was strong. Even if he hadn't reached his level, it wasn't far off. He could already be considered an expert. Just as he was about to attack Regis, he suddenly felt an astonishing pressure on his head. Looking up, a streak of blood-colored lightning descended from the sky. In the blood-colored lightning, a dark red sword could be seen faintly. The major general pointed his toes and slid backwards. The sword landed on the ground with lightning, and streaks of blood-red Origin Energy light shot out. These rays of light were extremely sharp, giving the Major General the feeling that the air was also being cut open.
Only then did the swordsman slowly stand up. The curved buttocks and towering peaks clearly belonged to a woman. However, the Major General was certain that the other party was not a human. At least, he had never seen a human like this woman before. More than eighty percent of her body was covered in dark red beast fur, especially her long hair. Every strand of her hair was emitting a hazy orange-red radiance. From afar, it looked like a ball of flame!
Of course, the major general would not understand. This was Laura's new stance after awakening her ancestral spirit. After endless battles and leveling up, Laura's original wild summons had finally fallen in love with the second stage of the Ancestor Spirit Summoning. Under this posture, the ancient genes of the Hulma people were dominated. Judging from Laura's long, flaming hair, the ancestors of the Hulma people must have a natural affinity for flames. Perhaps this was the reason why their descendants still had a fiery red skin.
The ancestral spirit called out to Laura, who was already infinitely close to the ancestor of the Hulma people. Apart from improving her basic qualities for the second time, her self-healing ability had also improved qualitatively. In addition, due to the affinity of fire, Laura had good resistance to high temperature, burning, and fire-attributed attacks. It also created a special ability, Flame Transfer.
Flame transfer could allow Laura's Origin Energy to be transferred three times between multiple targets. After the transfer times were over, a portion of the target's Origin Energy that had been contacted by Laura's Origin Energy would self-ignite and form a regional explosion through the resonance of Laura's Origin Energy. Just now, Laura had activated the ability to transmit flames when she struck down with her sword. However, the Federation Major General did not become the first and most important medium to transmit flames because he evaded in time.
But even so, Laura, who had been summoned by the Ancestor Spirit, already had the strength to stabilize the head of the Federation Major General, not to mention that there wasn't much of a gap between him and Regis not far away. The Federation Major General only felt his head grow bigger, and when he saw Mirren and Belmord again, his expression completely changed.
'"Grandpa, leave this to us. You guys go save Alan!" Said Regis loudly.
Seeing Regis appear, Horn was also shocked. Hearing Regis' words, Horn was also decisive and immediately led Anna into the elevator. Mirren and Belmord also flashed in. The elevator door was closed and they drove the four of them to the underground prison. In the elevator, Horn looked at Mirren and said indifferently, "Did Marshal Greed receive the news?"
Mirren nodded. "Before Young Master Alan returned to Earth, he had someone send an encrypted email to Marshal. When Marshal found out, he sent me back to Earth immediately. We happened to meet Young Master Alan's friends, so we came together. I didn't expect Mr. Horn to kiss here."
'"Mobbit took my family without any reason, and even tried some experiments on him. Do you really think I, Horn, am dead?" Horn narrowed his eyes and said, "I've never been an easy person to talk to. Of course I'm no exception this time. But is Sirius really good at interfering in this matter?"
"Marshal, what you mean is, whoever touches my students will fight first."
Horn was stunned and then laughed, "It's really Marshal Greed's style. Anyway, Beth Cod owes Sirius a favor this time." Then he looked at Belmord and smiled, "I'm so happy for him to be able to break through to the Federation for Alan and have a partner like you."
In the blink of an eye, the elevator had already reached its end. Horn straightened his body and said, "Let me see how Fendi plans to greet me."
At this moment, the elevator door opened, and only then did a crack open. Suddenly, gunshots sounded from outside, and countless bright flames lit up. A storm of bullets poured down like a rainstorm, instantly deforming and breaking the elevator door. Fragments mixed in with the rain of bullets poured towards the crowd in front of their heads and covered their faces.
Horn snorted and his walking stick landed on the ground, directly embedded into the floor. An invisible impact started from him and spread out in a fan shape, bouncing all the metal fragments and origin bullets back. Then, a golden light lit up in the elevator, like a ray of sunlight that pierced through the leaves in the autumn afternoon.
Qiu Yan, unsheath!
