Edge of the Apocalypse
Chapter 698: Root Jade

"Every time I see this, I don't know what to do. The Catus prefer to be down to earth. The blue sky can be seen, but not climbed. The earth is our stage, and we can vent and fight on it. As for the sky, this is not where we should be." Holding onto the starship's porthole, Hubble's voice sounded somewhat dull from under his helmet as he looked out of the window into the faint space.

"I have a companion who doesn't like interstellar travel as much as you do," smiled Allen.

"Oh, is he also a Catu?"

"No, he's an earthling like me. I don't think there are so many Catus who get along like you."

"That's the truth. Up until now, I don't like you Earth Monkeys. It's just that I don't hate you." Hubble tapped the almost sealed helmet on his head. "Can I take this damn thing off now?"

"No, you have to adapt. I'm afraid that even if you go to sleep on the Sunrise, you'll have to hide in this iron sheet until we reach the Garden of Eden."

"Then I must suffocate to death!" Hubble protested.

'"Believe me, that won't suffocate you. On the contrary, it will only be your death if you are seen on the Sunrise. There are people like Capulo, Russen, and a bunch of generals up there."

Hubble snorted and chose to remain silent.

The Dawn was on its way to the cruiser Sunrise, and from the porthole, it could be seen that it was not lonely. The surroundings were filled with Hunting Group starships returning from Frost Star, but the number of them was obviously much smaller than when they set out. Three hours before arriving at the cruiser, Allen sat on the captain's seat and was about to contact Leon to find out about his current situation. Before his hand could touch the panel, a communication request came in.

Alan stretched out his hand and opened it. A window popped up on the screen. After the communication window stopped, Windsor Belo's figure appeared on the screen. She looked a little haggard, and there was a shallow cut on the side of her face. It seemed that it should be a new injury. Seeing Allen, she lifted her spirits and smiled, "Teacher, I'm glad to see that you weren't killed. My little Allen, you're getting bolder and bolder. You haven't advanced to Awakened yet, are you? You dare to learn how to hunt freely? Do you really think the Star Battlefield is an amusement park?"

Ellen said awkwardly, "Teacher, long time no see. Are you alright?"

"What do you think I look like? Those damned Kidds are attacking our defenses like crazy. Hateful is, starting from Omiska, Adahua Planet's defenses are clearly closer!" Windsor Belo said angrily and shook her head, "Real-time communications across star domains are costly. Time can't be wasted complaining. Let's get down to business." I have just received news that you have been granted the right to go to the Garden of Eden. Of course, your military contributions have not been promulgated yet. Remember, Alan, stay away from death when you arrive in the Garden of Eden. Capullo had sent Melinda's two generals back not long ago, and now they were almost all from the old party in the Rudson Domain.

"It is rare to see such a comprehensive blockade of our New Party members, especially in a situation where His Excellency the President intends to repair the situation between our two factions. There are only two possibilities for Capulo to be so tough. One was that the old lion had gone mad, and the other was that Capulo had discovered something and was plotting it. The benefits involved must be enormous, otherwise he wouldn't risk being scolded by Lord Mobbit to get rid of Melinda's men. "

Windsor Belo snorted coldly, "I also heard that you have been very close to Catherine recently. I don't know what kind of temperament that little girl has." Capullo probably gave her permission to approach you, so the old lion should be planning to rope you in. But I have to remind you, that old fellow Capulo is very cunning. Perhaps our communication is already being monitored by him. In short, try not to get involved in the storm brewed by the old party. With your small amount, I'm afraid you'll be torn to pieces. "

"Contact me when you return to Earth. Let's do this first."

Without even giving Alan time to say goodbye, Windsor Belo ended the communication. Alan frowned. Windsor Belo was a player who did not play cards according to common sense. Most of the time, her behavior could be attributed to the word willfulness. But it seems odd that a teleconnaissance like this should be conducted specifically to remind him that the old party is plotting something here. If that's all, Windsor Belo could have sent the message to Allen in encrypted e-mail, which would have been more confidential than telephoning.

Therefore, it was very likely that she was trying to warn Alan on the surface, but in reality, it was a warning to Capullo? Or perhaps, there was a deeper meaning behind it?

Alan believed that Windsor Belo's ability to become a marshal was not limited to her extraordinary strength. How could he be qualified for the position of marshal if he didn't have a superior strategy?

"This Windsor Belo …"

A glass filled with amber liquid reflected Capullo's pale face. The marshal reached out to pick up the glass and gulped down the liquor. He then spat out a strong smell of liquor, almost spraying it on Russen's face. On one of their holographic projection screens was still Windsor Belo's wild face.

"Looks like Greed already knows something." Russen knocked on the table with his hand. There was also a glass of wine in front of him, but the liquid in the glass had obviously not moved. Opposite him, Capullo had already poured a third cup.

"Sirius' Red Wolves are not vegetarian," Capulo said, putting down the bottle. "I was too hasty. There was no need to chase away Melinda's general. They would not get any intel as long as they had a little control. That way, Greed would not suspect them."

"Then, do you want me to clean up the Red Wolves' activities in this area?" Russen Ningsu said.

'"No, old man. Then Greed will call directly. I don't want to give her that chance. And Mr. Morbit has already sent me a lot of warning letters about the last time. No matter what, I can't put our president in a dilemma." Capullo smiled and said, "Let the Red Wolves go. Sirius won't be able to rush to this region anyway. Windsor Belo can only stare at them if she knows. Don't worry about the New Party. What's up with the Barbarians recently?"

Russen knocked on the light keys on the table, and Winshabelle's face was replaced by another figure on the holographic screen. It was a person covered in a cloak. It wasn't difficult to see from the scene that his hands and feet were strangely long, and there was a ring of blue flames under his feet. The scene seemed to be frozen in the instant a certain ability was released.

"This is …"

"Fire Fiend Berukai, the Sovereign Army Chief of Staff of Agares. He appeared on Frost Planet and was captured by our spy satellite. Not long after he appeared, that Bescord brat reported the intel on Chaos Canyon. It has to be said that his luck is really extraordinary." Russen laughed dryly and said, "After Berukai left, Coldfrost's plan for a counterattack day began. Until today, the outsider alliance army had been defeated and the Balts had not interfered. In other words, the thing they wanted to leave was not Coldfrost."

"In that case, is the Garden of Eden still a little more likely?"

"You can say so. But what exactly was that Origin Jade? It was worth Agares' Abyss Sovereign Frius secretly plotting such an interstellar invasion. "If we hadn't accidentally intercepted a Baltic warship and found this information in their files, we probably would have thought that the alien coalition forces were only targeting our backyard and Adahua Planet's backyard." Russen's one-eyed eyes glowed coldly. "I'm afraid even Adahua Planet would have been in the dark about this."

"The people of Adahua Planet are too arrogant. They claim to be the guardians and administrators of the universe's order. Those lofty and glorious great figures will always suffer." Capullo drank his fifth glass of wine and put it upside down, indicating that he would not drink any more. "Anyway, let our people continue to keep an eye on the activities of the Baltics. Whatever the source jade is, it is absolutely not simple. If we obtain it, it will surely usher in a whole new situation for our old party."

The two exchanged glances and said in a deep voice, "The snow is cold, and the night is coming!"

That was a warning from the old party.

Russen stood up and said, "The Coldfrost Hunting Gang is almost back. I have to go back to the General Staff Headquarters to arrange for the merit check. Are you really going to give that thing to the Bescot kid?"

'"Have you ever crippled what I said? Let's do it that way, old friend. Although it's a good thing, it has no effect on me at all. Giving it to that brat can be considered a small compensation from the Military Ministry, so as to express my sincerity." '"Oh" Capulo said, "Oh right, you can arrange for him to meet me before announcing his military contributions."

"I know."

It was more than two hours after she finished communicating with Windsor Belo that she saw the Sunrise again. The cruiser was still bathed in the dazzling sunlight. The armor that reflected the sunlight shone with a seven-colored halo like high-grade glass. According to the cruiser's intelligent navigation, the Dawn successfully entered the docking port. When she arrived at the dock from the starship, Reese brought Luma and Christine over.

After whistling to Alan from afar, Reese spread out his hands and said, "Hey, buddy. How about we go to the bar for a drink?"

Alan shrugged and said, "It doesn't matter, as long as you like it."

A black shadow appeared behind him. Hubble, who was wearing gorgeous armor, walked over and said in a muffled voice, "What is a drink?"

"Just drinking."

"What is wine?" Clearly, the Catus do not yet have a culture of drinking.

Reese circled around Hubble and knocked on his armor. The latter immediately raised his beheading knife, scaring Reese into jumping to the side. Alan patted Hubble's chest and said, "Don't be nervous. He's joking with you."

"Hubble never jokes!"
