Edge of the Apocalypse
Chapter 1215: Seemingly Divorced

When Alan pushed open the office door, he saw a figure with his back facing him. He was standing in front of a wall filled with photographs of successive presidents, with federal flags hanging on both sides. That person was only standing there, and he was extremely tough and domineering. The moment Alan entered the door, he was practically unable to breathe. Even the overflowing sunlight in the office seemed to be extremely faint, as if a huge shadow had fallen on that person.

"Xiao Na is not the first president to establish the Federation, but I like him the most …" That person said. His voice was old, but it was very loud, like a bronze bell. His voice echoed throughout the entire office.

Alan almost wanted to cover his ears, but under this loud sound, the shadow and pressure disappeared, and the room became bright again. That person turned around, his head covered in silver frost. Who else could it be if he wasn't the commander of the Golden Lion, Capulo?

Capullo looked at the fake president with a smile and lowered his voice. "Schoner said that it was not enough for humans to get a ticket to a high-level war in the universe. The young race needed to rise to its feet in order to have a place in the universe. He strongly advocated military construction, and all citizens had to obey military service. Regardless of whether it was an ordinary person, Origin Energy practitioner, or a top ranked expert. Under his high-handed policy, the federation was as hard as steel, and could crush a large chunk of it if it was thrown out. "

"However, President Xiao Na's comments after that weren't very good. Marshal should also know about this, right?" Alan walked to his desk.

Capulo spread out his hands and said, "Yes, they call him a madman, a dictator, a war maniac." But so what? History is always just. It records the years of iron and blood. It also proved that it was precisely because of Xiao Na's Iron Policy that the Federation had a high-speed flight exhibition for 20 years. We went from an unknown young race to a line of defense in the chaotic battlefield. There is no denying that President Schoner has played a positive role in this. "

"There are always two sides to things. President Schoner has indeed pushed forward the development of the Federation, but he has also exhausted the resources of the Federation at that time. Countless experts have died on the battlefield. Therefore, everything needs to be restrained. As the leader of the Federation, every decision should be considered more carefully."

Capullo applauded, "I am relieved to hear what Mr. President has said. I believe that under your leadership, the Federation will be able to achieve even greater glory."

Alan also smiled, then lowered his head, and a cold gaze flashed in his eyes. Xiao Na was indeed an impressive president. His influence still dominated the development of the Federation even after he left office. At the same time, Xiao Na was the Marshal of the Federation before he became president. When Capullo mentioned Xiao Na, one could not help but think of him.

"Mr. President, how was your meeting with the nobles going?" Capulo changed the topic to a more relaxed one.

Alan opened the drawer. There was a secret compartment underneath. He typed in a password on the electronic lock next to the secret compartment. "At last, we haven't collapsed. At present, we can barely stabilize the situation."

"Then, what can I do for you?"

"Of course." Alan opened the secret box and took out a file bag. After opening it, a series of information, such as photos, documents, maps, and so on, was poured out from it. Capulo narrowed his eyes and picked out a photo from the pile of information. In the photo was a woman buried in the rubble, revealing only one face. This face was very young and had a proud look on her face. She must have been a noticeable woman when she was alive, but it looked like she had already turned into a corpse.

Capullo shook the photo. "This is?"

"One of the core members of the Light Concealment Society. Judging from the things she found in her residence, she should be a member of the six-member council, code name A." Alan said, "I believe Marshal already knows that the cause of the nobles' dissatisfaction is the Iron Prison incident. Many people now think that Fendi was under my orders. But I didn't do it unless I was crazy!"

Capulo's expression was calm and noncommittal.

Alan continued, "In short, I kept this matter a secret from the drum. It was only after the big explosion in the Iron Prison that I found out that something like this had happened. I sent an investigation team to investigate the matter and found something amazing."

"Oh, what is it?" Capulo asked.

"So Fendi is a member of the Hidden Light Society!" Alan pointed to the woman in the photo. "He has had several contacts with this A. Since the discovery of the organization, there has been far too much evidence that the organization has existed since a very early age and that its members have infiltrated every aspect of the Federation. "Marshal should still remember the negotiations at the Gate of Freedom. At that time, many generals were found to have been infiltrated by the Light Concealment Society. However, I didn't expect that even the Admiral would have been infiltrated. This is truly a terrifying matter."

"If that's the case, then it's obvious that Light Concealment Society is trying to cause a feud between you and the nobles?" Capulo nodded and said, "It's really hateful."

"In fact, not only that, before this, the emperor of Adahua Planet contacted me. They suspect that Alan Beskard has something to do with an ancient legend and hope that the young Beskard will be extradited to Adahua Planet through our Federation. So I asked General Hillfa to go to Paradise Star to recall Alan, but Fendi took him from Hillfa under the guise of me. Coincidentally, I was so busy dealing with other matters that I didn't even see Hillfa, which led to the Iron Prison incident. "Alan sighed." I can't shirk my responsibility. After the Iron Prison incident, the embassy in Adahua Planet sent it back. Orfasis was furious and asked us not to interfere. They will have full authority over Alan. "

Capulo snorted coldly, "So domineering."

'"Indeed, I won't show weakness before the Iron Prison incident. But now we've really screwed up, and we can't argue about anything else. What I want to say is that Light Concealment Society used Fendi's hand to imprison Ellen, possibly because he wanted to dig out secrets related to the legends to fight or even overthrow the Federation!"

Capulo said, "Oh." "What secret has such power?"

"Son of Twilight, Orfasis said that if Alan was the Son of Twilight, he would have the power to end everything." Alan laughed, "But I think this is too ridiculous. There are more than a billion creatures in the universe. I really don't believe that just one Son of Twilight can end everything."

"But obviously Light Concealment Society believes me."

"That's the problem, respected Marshal." Alan said in a deep voice, "The existence of the Light Concealment Society has become a huge hidden danger. We can no longer ignore its existence, Marshal."

"So …"

"I need you to eliminate them." Alan took out the map and tapped on a marked spot. "We've got the intel. In three days, the core members of the Hidden Light Society will be gathered here," he said. There was a military base left over from the old era in this area, which was now renamed 'Doomsday Landlord' after being renovated by them. "I want to invite the Golden Lion to attack the bunker and capture all the upper echelons of the Light Concealment Society. At that time, there will be no leaders, so this organization will naturally cease to exist."

Capulo nodded and smiled, "I can't find any reason to refuse."

"Then please leave everything to Marshal."

After sending Capulet off, Alan returned to his office. He closed the doors and windows silently, and after confirming that his voice would not be heard outside, he couldn't help but laugh out loud. Although the plan of the Son of Twilight was not satisfactory, it accidentally urged the nobles to negotiate with the Federation. Alan took advantage of this opportunity to bring Capulet back and use it on the plan to eradicate the Light Concealment Society.

Alan smiled and looked out the window. "My dear hosts, I hope you will enjoy this pleasant surprise."

At this moment, someone knocked on the door. Alan did not turn around and shouted, "Come in." The office secretary pushed open the door and said, "Mr. President, there's a lady who calls herself Vina who wants to see you."

Wina?

Alan turned around and nodded, "Invite her in."

A moment later, the back door opened. When the woman who called herself Vina strode into the office, a trace of jealousy flashed in the eyes of the blonde secretary. Then, she closed the door for them. This woman named Vina was tall and tall. Her hair was fluffy and black, but she had an unexpectedly exquisite and beautiful facial features. However, there was a sense of arrogance and coldness in his eyes, making it difficult for people to get close to him.

She walked around the office and then sat frivolously on Alan's desk. The woman closed her legs and took out a cigarette from her handbag. "Is there a light?"

Alan walked over and personally lit her cigarette. After she took a breath, she puffed a cigarette ring on Alan's body. "The room is not bad. Is the president satisfied?"

"You shouldn't have come here. Aren't you afraid of being discovered?"

"Come on, Alan." "Even members of the six-man council don't know each other's identities unless they act together with the clown like last time. No one will know. They only know that Mr. President and his lover met in private once, but isn't that normal for men?" Vina chuckled.

"Ms. Q, from the beginning, I was against using relationships like lovers as a cover. It's too easy for outsiders to see through." Alan frowned. Yes, this Vina in front of him was actually one of the core members of the Light Concealment Society. Her code name was Q. At the same time, she was also the woman who invited Alan to join her in Surface Town that day.

She chuckled and raised Alan's chin with a finger. "Alan, your appetite is getting bigger and bigger. Not only do you want to destroy the organization, you're also hinting at making out with me now? But you're right. If nothing happens between us, outsiders will see through this relationship too easily."

Alan breathed heavily.

"Then, kiss me." The woman said.

Alan narrowed his eyes and reached out to praise her face, but he opened it for Weina. "What do you mean?" He said with a change of expression.

"I didn't ask you to kiss me. I wanted you to kiss my foot."

Alan's expression changed, and Vena shrugged, "What, no? Forget it, don't say I didn't give you a chance." The former looked at her and suddenly laughed, "Why not? Not many people have the chance, have they?"

He squatted down.

This time, it was Vina's turn.

Vina wore narrow shorts and a pair of open-toed fish-mouthed high heels on her long legs, exposing her round toes to the air. Her purple-nailed fingernails were like colorful shells. Alan squatted down and gently took off her right shoe. Then he picked it up and kissed her toe. He even took a bite on it. Vena's expression changed immediately. Without thinking, she kicked Alan to the other side of the presidential wall.

This kick was not light, causing blood to ooze from Alan's mouth, but he didn't care about it, and his gaze landed on Wina's foot. The latter lowered his voice and said, "How dare you!" She suppressed her anger and the last bit of reason in her head stopped her from attacking angrily, but the surrounding things quietly climbed onto the white frost and the temperature in the office plummeted.

Alan shrugged and said, "I'm just following orders."

"You're really obedient. If you were that obedient, you wouldn't have betrayed the organization."

"Miss Weiner, everything I've done is for you. As long as I can please you, I won't hesitate to betray humanity, let alone the organization." Alan let out a beast-like sound from his throat. He rushed forward and kissed Wina crazily with his hands on her feet. The latter pulled out his leg with a disgusted expression, but did not attack Alan again. "I warn you, although I said that I would give you a reward for doing this, it is still far from success. How is it? Are you ready for the Doomsday Castle in three days?"

Alan nodded and said, "I've already talked to that old lion Capulo. He will be in charge of this attack. But what are you going to do? If you go to Doomsday Castle as well …"

"Don't worry about me." "Just like I said, the members of the Six-member Council don't know who the other party is, so I will let a substitute participate," Vina said calmly.

"If that's the case, wouldn't it be a waste of time if other people let their substitutes participate as well?"

Vina shook her head and said, "The chances are slim, especially for clowns." Take me as an example. I will have my substitute imitate my words and deeds. I will not tell my substitute everything, especially things as confidential as our cooperation now. At this Doomsday Castle gathering, the clown will announce something important and will not let a substitute go. "It doesn't matter if no one else is present. As long as I can get rid of the clown, half of this organization will fall into my pocket."

"Then I'm relieved." Alan's eyes lit up with excitement, "Then after this success …"

"Hmph, can't you not be so anxious?" Vina stretched out the back of her hand and placed it next to Alan's lips. The latter understood and lowered her head to kiss her hand deeply. "Don't worry, I'll give you a taste of the sweetness of the plan. Well, I should go. It's just a lover. I've wasted too much of Mr. President's time. If I stay any longer, I'll really make people suspicious," she said with a smile.

"I'll see you off."

Alan escorted Vina out of the door and showed his intimacy by sticking his face to the crowd outside. After that, Alan returned to his office first, and Vina left with a spring in her brows. However, when she left the White House, an expression of disgust appeared on her face. She took out a handkerchief from her handbag and wiped her face. Then, she threw it into the nearby garbage bin. In the office, the excitement in Alan's eyes disappeared. He became incomparably indifferent and said indifferently, "You self-righteous woman, I hope you are so proud in bed. That would be fun."

This was a quiet space, but it was quiet and not barren. Not far away, there was a beautiful nebula that looked like a dream. There might be a planet that contained life within that nebula. At this moment, space in a corner of space suddenly stretched out. When the distortion stopped, several platinum starships decorated with gorgeous patterns appeared in space. These starships were smooth, elegant, and gorgeous. They seemed somewhat incompatible with this space.

In the lead ship, Duke Gulliver of Adahua Planet had just entered the command center. The Duke stood on the bridge and leaned on the fence. "Can anyone tell me what happened and why our starship left the warp channel before it reached its destination?" He said loudly.

Someone immediately responded, "Report to Duke, there is a strong disturbance in the star domain of our destination, preventing the passage to that location from opening properly. If we do not exit, we may hide in the spatial storm."

Space storms are energy storms that occur when passageways are strongly disturbed, distorted, or collapsed. Once caught in a spatial storm, even experts like Gulliver would be in danger, so the exit route of the starship was in full compliance with the rules of interstellar travel. Gulliver knitted his brows. "Can you trace the source of the trunk?"

"We can't track it for now, but we can send a drone to investigate. This place was already very close to the star domain where the target was located. There was no need to open the passageway, it could be reached within two days. However … "The man hesitated for a moment before continuing," It's just that every star field is exceptionally vast. Even with our abilities, finding the source of the disturbance is not an easy task. "I suggest that the fleet send out a drone to investigate as they move forward. Perhaps a two-pronged approach would allow us to arrive at Planet Paradise sooner."

"Then what are we waiting for? Gentlemen, hurry up and act." Gulliver sat back in the captain's seat and closed his eyes. If it wasn't for the chaos on Earth, he might still be enjoying the sunshine and tea on his home planet. However, news came from the embassy in Babylon that those humans were foolish enough to secretly think of the Son of Twilight, causing Alan to return to Planet Heaven.

Orfasis had no choice but to insist that the Federation not interfere, while the task of bringing Alan back fell to Gulliver. Although the Gemini positioner on Heaven's Star had been destroyed, with Adahua Planet's latest generation of rainbow bridge technology, there was no need for a positioner to guide the warp channel. Adahua Planet's fleet could unilaterally open a passage to Paradise Star, thanks to Lucy sending a signal back from a base on Paradise Star, which gave Adahua Planet a clear coordinate.

However, he did not expect that this mission would be obstructed at the very beginning. Some forces or people were interfering with the intervention of the people of Adahua Planet. This was not good news. Gulliver was wondering who did it, and the first thing he suspected was of course Lucy. The empress was close to Allen and was a member of the royal family, so she was the most likely to interfere. However, the idea was immediately rejected by the Duke, for even if Lucy wanted to, she did not have the ability to do so.

Gulliver continued to rule out the others. Suddenly, he opened his eyes and a bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He knew who did it, and Gulliver was almost certain that it was Sharlyn. Ever since she disappeared from Moon Lake, it was as if she had disappeared from her home planet. No one knew where she was going. But now, Gulliver believed that she was already on Planet Heaven and had intervened.

Nothing was more troublesome than putting on a guy who could see through the first opportunities, and that guy was a woman, so it was even more troublesome. Gulliver shook his head and whispered, "What the hell are you thinking, Shaglin? First you're hiding something from the Son of Twilight, and now you're interfering. Do you really want the Twilight of the Universe to arrive sooner?"

"Wait!"

Gulliver suddenly sat up straight. He narrowed his eyes and whispered, "Sharlyn obviously knew Alan's identity before this, but she still had a relationship with him and was pregnant." She doesn't look like such a stupid woman. On the contrary, she is smarter than anyone else. "Since she's willing to do that, does she think Alan won't awaken or transform, or does she see some future fragment in Alan?"

Only in this way could she explain why Shakelene had concealed the matter of the Son of Twilight. Of course, she had to ask the woman in person to know if this was the case. However, judging from the current situation, he probably wouldn't be able to see Xia Gelin in the near future.

Thinking of this, Gulliver could only smile bitterly.

Paradise Star.

The wilderness.

There seems to have been a war here, and it should be a great war. Before this, this place should have been covered with green grass and trees. But now, the trees were sparse, and their trunks were scorched black. There were no branches or leaves on them, as if they had been burned by a big fire. The once green land no longer existed, and yellow-brown lichens appeared on the ground, as if the life force here had withered.

From a high altitude, many slopes of different shapes stretched out, pointing towards the northwest. Broken wood and black rocks could be seen everywhere, and they emitted the smell of death. When the wind blew by, the voice sounded so empty and sad that it was as if the whole world had lost all living things.

Of course, this was impossible.

As the sun shone like blood and gradually fell toward the horizon to the west, a few skinny wolves appeared on a slope. They struggled to find food and did everything they could to survive. Even though the process was hard, it was the nature of living creatures to survive. At this point, animals are stronger than humans.

The skinny wolf scratched the ground with its claws, searching for food that was almost impossible to exist. At this moment, one of the largest wolves stopped, its cold and heartless eyes looking down the slope. There it saw two people and a horse, as if they were travelers passing by. One of them was sitting with his eyes closed, as if he was too tired to sleep. The other was a teenager who was picking up broken wood nearby and piling it together to start a fire.

The hungry wolf couldn't help but stick out its tongue and lick it. It let out a low wail and brought the rest of its kind downhill. But at this moment, the youth suddenly stopped what he was doing and looked at them. At that moment, the hungry wolves almost thought that they had collided with their natural enemies. The terrifying, cold aura made them feel as if they were being wrapped around by a python. The scales on the python were constantly pressing against each other, as if they had heard their bones being shredded.

In the end, the hungry wolves let out a low cry and turned around to run away.

Bai looked at them and grinned. Then, he punched himself in the head in frustration. He was too busy releasing his aura to scare away the hungry wolf, but he forgot to casually kill a few of them for dinner tonight. Although they brought a lot of food with them, those things were far less delicious to Bai than wolves.
