Edge of the Apocalypse
Chapter 674: Seek Selfishness

"Are you threatening me?" Catherine said coldly.

'"No, no, no, I'm just reminding you. This is a good advice from a friend."

"Really? I've heard enough of your boring suggestions. By the way, if you don't get lost, I'll cut off your restless hands." Catherine had caught the snake sickle in her hand at some unknown time, and the light sickle constructed from Origin Energy had already bounced out. Like a venomous snake spitting out its fangs, it hissed in the air.

Comon exaggeratedly raised his hands and retreated. Originally, they were supposed to be placed on Catherine's shoulder, but now Comon wanted to keep them as far away from the girl in front of him as possible. He retreated to the side and said, "Oh," I heard you and a boy from Bescot recently got very close. What's his name again? By the way, his name is Allen. "

"What does that have to do with you?"

"Of course it's none of my business. Who doesn't know that I'm courting you? This brat still dares to interfere. I think we should just kill him." Said Comon with a smile, looking deliberately at Catherine.

The latter said with a calm expression, "Whatever you want." But after that, I'll be happy to collect your corpse. Not to mention that Alan is already a core member of Bescot, if you attack him, even the Grant Clan will not be able to protect you. I think the Alexandrian Clan is already a precedent. It will not end well if we anger Old Horn. Also, don't forget that he has a marshal teacher. Windsor Belo is a vengeful little woman, especially when you killed a student with great potential like Alan. "

"It's really scary. Fortunately, I was just casually saying it." Comon made a frightened expression, but his eyes were incomparably cold.

Catherine raised her cape and walked past Comon, leaving the command room without saying a word. Comon chuckled dryly and said to himself, "You cunning woman, if you don't care about that brat, how can you explain that strand of killing intent just now?"

"Damn, I'm a dignified Commonwealth Major General, and I'm from a wealthy family. Can't I compare to a brat? I really don't know what you think, Catherine!"

He went to the tactical table, picked up a tablet of brain and pulled out the battle plan. Items of information swiftly slid past Comon's eyes, and when the scroll on the screen arrived at the free hunt item, he clicked on it. Inside were the combat missions the hunting squads would be responsible for tomorrow. Comon held his brain and sat down on a chair. He whistled and drew his fingers. As a result, the names of the hunting squads flashed past his eyes.

When they arrived at the name "Pack of Wolves", beside the hunting group, the Guild Leader's column was filled with the word "Alan". Comon snapped his fingers and whispered, "I found you. Let me see. Tsk, isn't this mission too simple? No, how can it be so simple for a man that Catherine likes? Let me see if it's changed to this, eh. That way, you'll be able to make a difference. Of course, it's only if you come back alive, haha."

Major General Ru Fei quickly modified Allen's mission objective. After confirming and sending out the mission, Comon whistled happily. But soon a colonel came in and saw the brain in Comon's hand. The colonel asked in a deep voice, "General, I just found out that there was a change in the mission of the hunting squad. Could the general please tell me what's going on?"

"What's going on?" Comon stood up and circled around the colonel three times. "Because I think that mission is more appropriate. What, do you doubt my strategic vision as a general?"

The captain looked a little unsightly when the hat was put on. He lowered his head and said, "I don't dare, since the general said so …"

"Wait. I know what you're thinking." Comon whispered in his ear, "If you dare to tell Catherine about it, Colonel, I think you and your family will probably have to go to another world to reunite."

The colonel's pupils constricted and he sighed dispiritedly, "This subordinate doesn't know anything. Is the general satisfied?"

"That's more like it." Comon patted his shoulder, stuffed his brain into his hand, and whistled out of the command room.

The colonel sighed as he looked at the modified mission content of Allen's team on the screen. This strategic objective would have required the deployment of a colonel, five major officers and a team of two hundred men. But now, it was thrown to a hunting group of only five people. Based on the level of the members of this hunting group, this was simply sending them to their deaths. The colonel clenched his fists and could only let go. He shook his head and put his brain back in its original position.

Comon and his family were not offended by the colonel, and even if he felt displeased, he could only pretend to be deaf and mute in this matter.

Tick--

The tactical brain rang with a notification that it had received a message. Alan held it up, and an envelope icon flashed on the screen. Clicking on it, it turned out to be a change in the mission issued by the Military Ministry. Alan scanned through the information and remembered it all from the bottom of his heart.

"What is it?" Lucy asked.

"Nothing much. The Military Department has just revised the mission contents."

Lucy frowned. "Tomorrow is the day of the general offensive. Isn't it a little too much of a joke to change the mission now?"

'"Who knows? But it doesn't matter. It's just a mission. After the war with Coldfrost, we should go to the Garden of Eden. Lieutenant Colonel Ned told me that the information he provided this time is enough to exchange for a second-class military service. The central battlefield is our real stage!"

Lucy shook her head and sighed, "You men …"

'"We're at the frontline camp. Look, there's already a war going on here!" Cried Regis.

Alan looked up and saw through the front window of the starship. In front of the fleet was a camp that had been cleared out of the forest. The temporary workers on the camp were arranged neatly like pieces of tofu. As the starship rose and landed, flying cars entered and exited, a bustling scene. In the distant mountains, explosive flames and flames of all kinds of Origin Energy continued to flicker. Occasionally, balls of fire would fall from the sky. That was a small flying ship that had been shot down.

From the several war zones in the mountains, it could be seen that the Federation drew an arc-shaped line of defense to defend against the attacks of the Yordon Outsiders. The scene of the battle caused everyone's blood to boil, and they wished they could immediately squeeze into the battlefield. At this time, the starship's radar sounded an alarm. On the radar, a red dot drew an arc and quickly headed towards their fleet.

"Enemy attack!"

The pilot shouted. Outside the starship's window, one could already see a rough Catu flying ship rushing towards the fleet. The air-to-air system on the ground immediately activated. The intelligent turret released streams of fire like long whips, interweaving into a net of fire in the air. The enemy airship rushed halfway and was already swept away by artillery fire, causing countless streams of fire to explode. The hull of the ship quickly fell like a ball of fire, causing a sympathetic explosion on the ground. The impact of the explosion even affected the fleet in mid-air.

After shaking for a while, the hull of the ship remained stable again. At this time, the ground control tower had already teleported the landing coordinates. The pilots changed their course, and the starships of the Dawn and the other hunting groups followed the instructions and landed at the designated location of the front camp. After the ship stabilized, Alan unbuckled his seat belt and brought the members of the hunting team from the lift deck to the ground.

As he walked out of the starship, his ears were filled with the rumbling of cannons. A faint charred smell floated in the air. This was what a battlefield should taste like. Alan raised his head, and the sky was cut into countless pieces by the fire from the air cannon. There were still enemy ships constantly trying to charge through the air-to-air firepower net, but unfortunately, they all turned into blazing fireballs and fell to the ground. At this time, a flying car arrived at the apron, and an officer jumped down from the flying car. Judging from the emblem on his shoulder, it was not difficult to tell that the other party was a lieutenant colonel. He mustered his Origin Energy and shouted, "Follow me, everyone involved in the free hunt. General Catherine wants to see everyone."

He shouted three times in a row, and the sound of his shout was enough to suppress the sound of the cannon. Everyone could hear him clearly.

The two personnel carriers arrived nearby. Under the orders of the lieutenant colonel, everyone got into the personnel carriers. Alan took his men to a corner and sat down. Lucy said beside him, "Here comes Catherine again!"

"Don't worry, she won't bother me again." Alan smiled.

Lucy looked at him suspiciously, "How can you be so sure?"

Before Alan could figure out how to explain his complicated relationship with Catherine, he could only say, "This is the frontline camp. Could it be that the Federation Major General can still swagger and hunt me down?"

"She's not the kind of woman that can be measured by common sense. If she knew how to be cautious, she wouldn't have attacked you at the mine that night." Said Lucy, wrinkling her nose.

"The situation is a little different. Don't worry."

A moment later, the troop carrier arrived at the assembly point. Alan followed the crowd out of the car, and under the direction of the lieutenant colonel, the crowd rushed into an open space. The place was already filled with people. It seemed that the hunting squads that had rushed over from the various bases had gathered here. When they first entered Frost Star that day, these family squadrons were sealed off by the Yordon outsiders' firepower. Luckily, Allen and Rena worked together to kill the Dark Titan who was in charge of commanding them.

At that time, everyone still remembered the performance of the two of them, and the two of them had their own characteristics. Therefore, not long after they entered the arena, they were recognized by others. Many people took the initiative to greet the two of them. Most of them were very friendly, but there was no lack of fear or even jealousy in their eyes. Alan always smiled at everyone who stepped forward, while Raynor remained the same, with a stern face, as if he didn't want to get close to strangers.

At this moment, they arrived at the arena. An officer on the high platform in front of them shouted, "Silence, silence!"

Everyone saw a black cloak floating in the air. When Catherine wore the general's cloak and walked onto the platform, they seemed to see a pitch-black flame churning endlessly. Without needing the officer's reminder, everyone held their breaths in awe, out of reverence for the superior expert. Catherine walked to the middle of the platform and stood upright with her hands behind her back. Her eyes swept across the faces of the people on the platform with awe.
