Edge of the Apocalypse -
Chapter 586: Reunion Of Old Friends
"Finally, there's something I need to confirm with you."
At the end of the conversation, Horn asked indifferently, "The interstellar battlefield is open and the armies of wealthy families are stationed, but not all the members of the families have to go with them." Among them were methods of free hunting or participation employed by other clans for temporary private military purposes. In this war, Roddy will be in charge of our family's army. Now he needs to make a plan, so he has to determine the core strategy of the army. "
"Then, Ellen, which way do you want to participate?"
Allen thought for a moment and said, "Let's go hunt freely. After all, I haven't been in Fierce Vulture before, and I don't fit in with our family's army. Rather than barely integrating together, it's better for me to move freely and earn more military merits for our family."
"That's no problem." Horn nodded and said, "Free hunting represents both the clan and you. Therefore, when the time comes, the clan will take 30% of the merit points and the rest will belong to you. Remember, whatever merit points belong to you can be used, regardless of other people's opinions."
"I see, Grandpa."
"Well, the federal exchange list should be announced tomorrow. At that time, I'll ask Helsing to send you a copy. You can take a look first and find out what you want to exchange. Once your military service meets the standard, you can immediately apply to the Military Supplies Department to avoid getting caught first."
Although the Federation had yet to provide an exact exchange list, the major clans already knew of some rumors. The items exchanged this time were divided into six categories: Mana Armament, Genetic Medicine, Third Grade including strategic materials below Third Grade, and other trivial items. To the clan, magic energy armor and gene potions were of little use, and they were more interested in strategic materials. Including items like Times Silver, it was more meaningful for the entire clan to increase their strength.
As for the magic power armor, it was something that the individual experts who fought in a free hunt had a good heart for. News had already spread that the Federation would take out eighteen grade weapons and put them on the exchange list. For experts who had not yet crossed the first level of the Dominator, they would be able to do so. A high-grade magic power equipment would greatly increase their combat strength. At the very least, it could increase their combat strength by one level. This was enough to attract the attention of those participating in the battle.
To Alan, he already had a weapon like Blood Concealment, and the Abyss Devil praised this Origin Weapon. Mana arming didn't have much effect on him. However, just because he didn't need it didn't mean that other people were useless. Followers like Roy and Wilick. It would be good if he could get them a good weapon or armor with outstanding defensive properties. No matter how bad it was, he could still sell it, and that was money!
However, there was a certain danger in participating freely in the war, which meant that he would leave the protection of the clan army. Anything could happen in a dangerous interstellar battlefield. The danger did not only come from the enemy, it could also come from behind him.
After bidding farewell to Horn, Alan returned to his residence and continued to focus on the design of the two armors. At present, more than half of the design progress had been made. The basic sequence had already been completed, but the next step was some delicate work. It is necessary to arrange the direction of the source points and energy conduction lines so as to minimize the consumption of Origin Energy. Less Origin Energy output meant longer endurance. As for a piece of armor, there was no doubt that the longer it could endure, the more secure it would be for the wearer's life.
Lucy had locked herself in the ammunition workshop of the castle these few days. Her Highness the Empress was also actively preparing for the interstellar battlefield, so she was preparing a batch of special ammunition. She had asked Ellen to buy some raw materials from the family warehouse, which would probably be enough for her to spend three to five days tossing and turning. During the two of them, apart from having dinner together, they rarely met during working hours. They were all busy with their own things.
Alan had just finished drawing a conductive line on the blade when he received a video communication request from Adele. He pinned the electronic pen to his ear and opened the video window. Adele, who was dressed in neat men's clothing, crossed her waist and said, "Can you be slower?"
"I'm busy, young miss. What can I do for you?" Alan sat down on a table and took off the electronic pen and spun it nimbly between his hands.
Adele grimaced and said, "Leon is back. The boy has booked a private room in Venus. He wants us to get together tonight. Remember to come. It's eight o'clock. Don't be late."
"Leon is back?" Ellen wasn't surprised. "The Williams are going to fight too, right?"
'"That's right. I heard that they've transferred the main force of the Canary Knights back from the colonial planet. It looks like they're going to do something big. Oh, the Smiths are no exception. Their Dark Shadow Spider has already begun to gather. Aren't your family's Fierce Vultures ready as well? Speaking of which, you should leave with the army, right?"
"No, I chose to hunt freely." Alan smiled.
"Your head is pinched by the door!" Adele waved her pink fist and said excitedly, "What do you think an interstellar battlefield is? It's not like a local war on Planet Paradise. My Young Master Allen, it's a large-scale battle. There are not many people in our Federation, but the combined fleet of the Juttonian Star System and the troops of Adahua Planet. Which side's army is not close to a million troops."
"I know."
"You know? Then you chose to hunt freely, damn it. Free hunting was the method that those who had no clan to rely on had no choice but to participate in the battle. You know, in a battlefield like that, without the support of your family, your supplies and intelligence would be severely lacking. You think you're Marshal Greed? Damn it! Ellen, go and change the way you participate in the battle before we leave. "
'"I know the danger, but it's also convenient," Allen smiled. "And Adele, it's not always safe to fight with the army. It might attract the opponent's strongest opponent if it's too big. Instead, we'll hunt freely and wander around the edge of the main battlefield. What are your chances of encountering a killing-level opponent?"
"Damn it, your brain is definitely different from a normal person. Forget it, I can't convince you. Let Leon teach you a good lesson later tonight."
At the end of the communication, Allen shrugged his shoulders and continued to devote himself to the sequence design, struggling with cumbersome formulas and numbers.
In the evening, he had dinner and informed Lucy. He changed his clothes and got a family car to take him to the Venus Hotel in Babylon.
Whenever Venus was the best hotel in Babylon, it was always so golden. Even at this moment in the war, in the Venus Hotel, he did not feel as nervous as he should have felt before the war. The guests who entered and left this place were still so well-dressed, as if the winds and clouds outside did not interfere with them at all.
Alan announced his name in the lobby, and a waiter led him to a private room on the fifth floor. As soon as he entered, his eyes went blurry and he was hugged tightly by someone. "It's so nice to see you again, man. I thought you laid eggs for the natives of Planet Heaven." Laughed the man.
Alan saw Leon's face when he let him go again. After many days, the handsome young man's face now smelled of war, his edges clearer, and his gaze sharper than a sword. These changes were undoubtedly pleasant, but Alan discovered that after joining the surface war, this young master from a wealthy family spoke with some ruffianism.
"Alright, alright. Don't stare at me. That kid from Lian Cheng has already said that I've turned from a noble to a hooligan. Damn it, if you guys sleep in the trenches at night like me and hang out with a bunch of men covered in sweat day and night, you'll be just like me." Leon blinked his eyes and said, "But this is Babylon. The old men in the family don't like me like this, so I have to change, change."
Alan punched him in the chest and said, "It's a celebration that you didn't kill him. As for the rest, we can shut our eyes and pretend that we haven't heard Young Master Leon's dirty words."
"Pei pei, stop pretending to be arrogant with me." Leon wrapped his hands around Allen and said, "I've heard, Master Allen. Your Heavenly Star is rich, so you must have made a lot of money. Now you have money in your pocket, so I'll treat you tonight."
"You blackmailed me as soon as you came. You even said you were brothers."
The two entered the hall laughing and chatting. Alan saw that Jin Liancheng still looked like an elegant young master. However, the Oriental style clothing had been replaced with a suit of personal clothing, and the folding fan in his hand had disappeared. On the other hand, there were two pistols on his waist. Jin Liancheng smiled bitterly and said, "I have just returned from the surface of the earth. Before I could return to my clan to overturn my fate, I was captured by our Young Master Leon."
"Looking at Lian Cheng like this, he's a bit more manly. In the future, he'll be even more comfortable among the young ladies of Babylon." Leon teased.
In a corner of the hall, Adele was talking to a girl that Alan had never seen before. Seeing Alan's gaze, Adele waved her hand as a greeting, but the girl stood up. Leon walked towards her and said, "Come on, let me introduce you. This is …"
Before he could finish, the girl said generously, "Hi, my name is Judy. You must be Young Master Allen. Leon always talks about you. You're much younger and much more handsome than I thought."
She stretched out her hand to Alan, and the two of them shook hands and parted. Ellen was slightly surprised. Judy's hands were very rough, and her clothes looked very ordinary. She did not have the manners that a noble lady should have. Judy greeted her and went to chat with Adele. Leon walked over and pulled Ellen away and whispered, "What do you think of this girl?"
"What?"
"It feels like." Leon said with a sullen expression, "Young Master Alan, you don't know how to fight now and you don't even appreciate girls anymore, do you?"
"Don't you want to tell me that she's your lover?"
"Almost. I know her from the surface. I like her character very much. She has a level thirteen or fourteen battle prowess. She's too careless." Leon said carelessly.
Alan looked at Jin Liancheng, who shook his head with a solemn expression.
