Edge of the Apocalypse
Chapter 1286: Growth

"Not bad, Bai. Reaction, speed and explosive power are all terrifying. Your potential and talent are probably the strongest among us." Laura smiled and was delighted with the growth of the youth.

The youth touched his head. He was not good at words, he just muttered, "I'm still a little short."

"You mean Hubble?" Laura laughed, "Don't compare yourself to a big guy. Hubble's starting point is always higher than either of us." After becoming Allen's follower, his Fallen Body's offensive and defensive modes are both excellent, so it's normal for his combat strength to be higher than ours. But you shouldn't only see power and ignore your own growth. To be honest, your growth rate is almost catching up to Alan's. "

"Catch up to father?" The teenager's eyes lit up, "If I could grow to the height of my father, I would be able to help a lot, right?"

"Of course. At that time, we will probably be able to retire." Laura said half-jokingly.

Bai grinned with a simple smile.

Ever since Allen left, the few of them felt that their strength was low, so they trained themselves through battles. At first, Laura, Bai, and Belmord needed to work together to draw with Hubble. But a few days later, Bai advanced again, and his strength increased by a thousand li. The speed at which he grew was astonishing. Very quickly, the combat strength of the three of them caused Hubble to begin to lose ground.

Thus, the four of them split into two groups.

Belmord and Hubble's group, Bai Ze and Laura's group, the two groups continued to train themselves in a battle. They had never done such training before, but unexpectedly, it was very effective. Not only did he increase his own strength, he was also more familiar with his opponent's combat skills. Once he worked together, his combat strength would be much higher than before.

"Continue?" White was eager to try.

Laura nodded and said, "I'm going to get serious next."

"Me too."

Then, the two figures tangled together.

Laura's sword momentum was still wide open and close. Every sword strike was shocking. Anyone with a slightly weaker will would be shaken by her sword momentum in three or two strikes. Although Bai's entire body didn't have any weapons, his body was the strongest weapon. From the fist to the toe, and even the forehead of his shoulders, after his entire body was covered with hard snake scales, any part of his body could turn into a deadly weapon.

His movements were agile, and his attacks were fast and fierce. Every time Laura attacked, Bai was enough to punch three or five times and kick two or three times. However, even though Laura's attack was slow, experts at their level, regardless of whether it was a sword or a punch, contained surging energy. The collision of fists and swords was also a collision of qi. No matter how slow Laura's attack was, if she was unable to break through the tidal energy contained within her sword strike, then even if Bai could avoid her sword edge, he would not be able to avoid the locking and pursuing of the tidal energy.

Otherwise, with Bai's agility and speed, why would he fight with Laura? In fact, at their realm, speed and speed were no longer as simple as they appeared on the surface. Fast might not necessarily win, but slow might not necessarily injure the enemy.

With one slash, Laura used her body to retract her sword power and slanted her sword. This sword carried snow and ice all over the sky. Under the traction of the sword qi, the snowflakes spun and whistled, and Sha Xue pulled out a light blue pillar to sweep towards Shao Bai.

Bai inhaled slightly and his lower abdomen contracted. Suddenly, he exhaled and shouted, instantly sending out a fist shadow.

The fist shadow collided with the snow pillar, and the ice and snow were crushed into powder by the collision of the two human origin energy machines. Bang away the snow pillar, Bai Gao raised his right leg and smashed it down with his heel. This kick pierced through the air at high speed with a sharp howl as it heavily collided with the blade of Sha Xue's sword. Laura could only feel a mountain rising from the sword, and a violent attack came along the sword. She let out a low cry, and a flame seemed to shine in the beast's pupils. A violent Origin Energy surged out of his body and collided with White Origin Energy.

The two of them let out a muffled groan at the same time, and a powerful force erupted on the sword, causing them to retreat backwards.

Laura's feet slid ten meters out of the snow before stopping with the Blood Brake Pillar. Bai Ze continuously rolled and unloaded his strength in mid-air, spinning more than a dozen times before landing on the ground. Both sides stared at their opponents seriously before smiling at each other.

"Let's call it a day. If we continue, it won't be training." Laura said. Both she and Bai had their trump cards. However, just like she said, if the two of them uncovered their trump cards and fought with all their might, then it would not be training, but a life-and-death battle.

Bai naturally understood this logic.

The snake scales on the youth's body disappeared one by one, while Laura released her ancestral summons and withdrew from the battle. The two of them followed the markings they had made before and arrived at an old tree that had already withered. In the tree hole, Laura took out water and food and began to eat and drink with Bai Yiren. Could it be that during the rest time, the two of them were silent? This allowed them to easily hear the muffled sounds coming from afar from time to time.

That was Hubble and Belmord's voice.

"The big guy is about to break through." Laura whispered. Previously, when they were grouped together, Hubble was only one step away from the Level 30 Gate. Over the past few days, every time he saw him, his aura had increased significantly, and he faintly felt an inexplicable sense of pressure. That was precisely the sign of advancement. If it went smoothly, with Hubble's innate potential, it was hard to guarantee that he wouldn't directly advance by two or three levels. At that time, this Gatu man would become Allen's strongest follower.

She looked at Bai, who was silently eating next to her, and Laura quietly added the word "one" after Hubble's strongest definition.

At this moment, Laura's ears twitched slightly, and she caught a slight noise. He immediately put away the food and placed his hand on Sha Xue's sword hilt. The youth also noticed that he jumped up and the fluff on his neck stood up. Suddenly, he relaxed and sat down on the ground to continue eating. Three Fire Horned Demons walked out from the forest in front of them, heading towards Laura and the others crouched and waited for orders.

When the Fire Horned Demon arrived near Laura, it actually spat out a human voice, "Miss Laura, there's something wrong."

The voice was Mitinus. Although the Abyss Flame was far away from the small town's mines, it could communicate with Laura and the others through its connection with the combat units. Mitinas scattered the Fire Horned Demon in the snowy forest a few kilometers around the town as his eyes and ears. If he found anything, he would contact Laura through the Fire Horned Demon. Alan was not in town, and Laura, who was closest to him, had become Alan's spokesperson.

"What happened?"

"Invaders found." After Mitinas reported a position, he said, "There aren't many people on the other side, but there is a Level 30 expert inside, so I feel that it is necessary to inform you."

"Level 30 expert?" Laura stood up and said, "Then Bai and I will go over first. Please inform Hubble and the others to meet up."

"Miss Laura." Mitinas suggested, "With all due respect, I'm afraid that I'm the only one who can defeat them at the moment, but His Highness has instructed me to avoid exposing myself to the public as much as possible if it's not necessary." You've all grown up during this period of time, but you're still barely able to deal with a Level 30 expert. "I feel that in this situation, it would be better for you to wait for the opponent's Origin Energy to drop before you guys come forward, after the low-level combat units consume the opponent's combat strength."

Laura nodded. "I know, but we're almost at the bottleneck. After all, combat training isn't a life-or-death battle. Without experience in facing experts, it's very difficult for us to make a breakthrough. So I think this is an opportunity. If the opponent's strength is about the same as that of the Iron Hand back then, even if it's a Level 30 expert, it's not like we don't have a chance."

"But don't worry, if the opponent is too strong, I will use your plan."

The Fire Horned Demon nodded in a very humane manner, "Then I'm relieved."

Then it retreated, and Mitinus' will retreated from its head. The Fire Horned Demon shook its head and roared. After looking at Laura, it and the other two Fire Horned Demons went back into the forest.

Laura put the thing back into the tree hole and looked at Bai. The latter clenched his fists with excitement.

On the snowy ground about three kilometers away from Green Light Town, a Baltimore man looked at the stone pillar beside him. The green flames in the stone cage illuminated his face. His bare head was tattooed with bright red symbols. Those were the oldest characters on Agares, and they were no longer in use. These ancient characters covered his skull and extended to the back of his neck. The man was covered in flesh and blood, and his stomach was overlapping. There were also a few sarcomas growing on his back and chest, which was extremely ugly. He was dressed in loose clothes, and he couldn't wear armor with his size. Green lines appeared on his chest and abdomen, occasionally flashing with green light.

It was a sequelae of consuming green crystals directly to increase his Origin Energy. Obviously, this man was like the iron hand of Green Light Town, both of them relied on green crystals to increase their Origin Energy. He casually took out a green crystal from his pants pocket and tossed it into his mouth to bite. After the crystal was crushed, a large amount of energy dissipated and was swallowed by him. Then he patted his stomach and said, "Soft eggs, how long do you need to rest? If you don't get up, I'll break your necks and go on my way."

"Mr. Luther, we're separated from Lord Luci. Shall we talk to Lord Luci first?" Said the leader with a bitter face.

"Bullshit!" Fatty, known as Luther, scolded, "Look at your little bit of ambition. You deserve to be Lord Luci's soldiers? We don't know where Master is now, but we know that Green Light Town is heading in this direction. Do you think I can't beat Green Light Town? It would be fine if the guy who killed the Blood Eye was in town. I still have that bit of self-knowledge. However, he was currently in Bai Xicheng, and there were only his followers in the town. "Those people don't even have Level 30. I, Luke, am not afraid of bastards below Level 30!"

Seemingly convinced that what he said made sense, the soldiers packed their equipment and continued on their journey with Luke.
