Edge of the Apocalypse
Chapter 718: Dust Cleaning (1)

Toure was speechless. Although the Goliath family had developed quite well in the past few years, they had successfully settled in Babylon. However, in terms of family background, the ten Goliath Clans were unable to catch up to Beth Cod. If this matter rose to the height of the family feud, then not only would there not be any benefits this time, Beth Cod could even ignore Alan's negligence and directly start a war against the Goliath Clan.

That's not what he wanted.

On Frost Planet, Barry fled back after the Free Hunter Group was destroyed and reported the matter to the clan's superiors. Toure heard that this matter had something to do with Beth Cod, so he called Barry over and chose to attack Alan when he arrived at the Blood Gate Stronghold today. This was only to deal a blow to Beth Cod through this matter. Of course, he knew exactly which side distorted the truth.

Hearing Roddy's words, Toure changed the subject and said, "I have no intention of offending Beth Cord. Mr. Horn is also someone I respect. However, my men cannot die in vain. At the very least, Mr. Roddy, you should give me an explanation."

"Alright, then what kind of explanation do you want me to give you?"

"Leave him to me." "The murderer must be punished severely," Toure pointed at Allen.

"Oh, that's fine, if Alan is really the murderer. But before that, I want to ask, what other evidence do you have besides this clown?"

"Barry alone is enough," Toure said coldly. "There's no need for any other evidence!"

"In other words, this clown is the only witness?"

"That's right."

"This is simple." Roddy smiled and waved to Barry, "Come here. I have a few questions I want to ask you."

Barry looked at Toure and the latter nodded. When the sniper walked over, Roddy opened his mouth and said, "I want to ask, at that time, you …"

"What did you say?"

The latter half of Roddy's voice was too low for Barry to hear clearly. So he subconsciously leaned forward and heard Roddy clearly, "I want to say, those who talk nonsense deserve to die!"

Barry was shocked and wanted to retreat. Roddy had already punched him in the face. Barry could clearly hear the sound of his nose breaking, and the world in his eyes quickly turned blood red. He turned around and saw Tu Lei, who was filled with shock and anger. He wanted to say something, but the world suddenly fell into darkness.

With a thud, Barry fell to the ground. His eyes were bloodshot, blood flowing out of his mouth and nose, but he punched Roddy to death!

Toure trembled with anger, but Roddy shook his fist lazily and said, "Didn't you want me to give you an explanation? Now it is. Is Mr. Toure satisfied?"

Toure finally roared, "Roddy, don't go too far!"

"Wrong, wrong. I'm very reasonable." Roddy spat rudely and scolded, "On one side are the core members of my family, and on the other are the fringe members of a third-rate family." Which side should I believe is more obvious? Isn't it normal to execute a bastard who dares to frame an important member of our clan? Toure, don't think I don't know what you're up to. There have been quite a few people who have tried to trample us down over the years, but in the end, they won't get anything, you can tell by looking at Maine. "

"Or do you think you're stronger than the Alexandrian family?" Roddy sneered and said, "Use your brain before you attack. Even if Alan really did that, I won't hand him over. Even if he is to be punished, he will have to be judged within our family and not given to an outsider like you. Understood? Idiot!"

The atmosphere at the scene had already become tense. Barry was killed and Toure was enraged. The guards surrounding Bescot had already picked up their guns, but Toure did not stop them this time. Roddy looked around coldly and said, "What, are you going to attack us? That would be serious."

Toure wanted to tear Roddy into pieces, but he knew that this was not the right place. But if he let Alan off like this, he was a little unwilling. At this moment, someone said indifferently, "What's going on? Who allowed you to use force in the stronghold?"

A group of Federation soldiers squeezed in, separating Gullit and Bescot. The gray and black ponytails flashed past Tully's eyes. Catherine walked in dressed in a black cloak. The black cloak was like a black flame, causing Tully's eyelids to jump when he saw it. He gestured for the guard to put away his gun, and the man stepped forward and said, "You came at the right time, General. Beth Cod killed my men in the vital area. I wonder what the Military Department thinks about this?"

Catherine looked at him, her eyes sinking into the Nether River, causing Toure to panic. "The Federation has always been neutral," she began. "The grudges between the nobles never interfere. Had Mr. Toure forgotten? I don't care who's dead here. What I care about is, if anyone dares to use a knife or a gun in front of my eyes. Then I will arrest you for threatening public safety. As for your complaints, I think the judges of the Military Court will be happy to hear them. "

Toure felt as if he had been stuffed with a few eggs and was speechless for a long time. After a while, he retreated sadly. He knew that today's matter could no longer be pursued, so he had no choice but to have Barry's corpse carried away. Just as she was about to turn around and leave, Catherine suddenly said, "I can testify about Ellen. The things in his possession weren't those of a freelance hunter. Speaking of which, I was also credited with obtaining those high concentrations of Origin Crystals. Perhaps Mr. Toure didn't even believe what I said?"

Toure felt as if he had been struck by lightning. If even Catherine jumped out to testify for Alan, then even if Alan really did it, Toure could only endure it. After all, it wasn't wise to question a Federation major general, especially on this battlefield. Now, Toure was glad that Barry had been killed by Roddy, otherwise his face would be even more embarrassed. He then said, "Thank you for your testimony, General. From the looks of it, that bastard Barry actually wants to frame Mr. Allen."

"Since you said so," Roddy interrupted from behind, "Then should Mr. Toure give our Ellen an explanation?"

Toure greeted Roddy in his heart a thousand times, but he smiled and said, "Naturally, it's all my fault for not disciplining him properly. Well, I'll have someone give Mr. Allen a small gift as an apology later."

Roddy laughed and said, "Then I'll thank Alan for that."

Only then did Roddy let him leave. After watching the Goliath family leave in a dejected manner, Roddy scolded, "It can be considered a realm to be so thick-skinned."

Then he looked at Catherine and said, "Thank you, General, for testifying on behalf of our family, Ellen."

"I'm just telling the truth." Catherine stepped forward and said seriously to Ellen, "I didn't say anything nonsense just now. I was indeed responsible for that shipment of yours. When will you give me a dividend?"

"If you want it, I can give it to you now," Ellen said, bewildered.

"I'll let you go first. Just treat it as my private investment." With that, the major general waved his hand and led the soldiers away.

After Catherine left, Roddy wrapped his hands around Alan's neck and rubbed his head. "You're a good boy. I've heard about you and Catherine." I thought it was a good news, but I didn't expect it to be true. Well done, Ellen, try to get her. A general's dowry is enough for an ordinary person to fight for a few lifetimes, and if she joins Bethcodt because of that, your position in the family will soar. "

Lucy couldn't help but cough dryly before Roddy let go of Alan. He smiled awkwardly and whispered to Ellen, "Of course, if you earn a dowry from a royal daughter, I think you can start your own business."

His voice was too loud. Even though it had been suppressed to a very low level, the people behind could still hear it clearly. Lucy blushed with embarrassment. Alan shook his head and pushed him, "Uncle Roddy, let's go back first."

"Right, right. You guys are tired just now. Look at my head." Roddy patted his head and waved his hand, "Get in the car. You guys have a good rest first. If you eat well tonight, you'll be busy tomorrow."

Beth Cod was divided into camps the size of half a block, and the camps were located in the stronghold. This is an independent area, not subject to federal military jurisdiction, but only subject to administrative management. There were still two independent camps like this. Naturally, Mosen and Goliath each had one. The main entrance to the camp was the plaza. The soldiers of the Fierce Vulture were conducting various drills in the plaza.

Behind the plaza were barracks, restaurants, battle rooms, warehouses, garages, and other buildings. The facilities were complete, and Allen's teams were arranged into a six-storey dormitory building, just in time for each team to get one storey. In the afternoon, Sileo led Ellen to the fortress's military building, which was located in the center of the fortress and was the tallest building in the fortress. Its shape is "H" shape, the main body is two twin buildings, twin buildings in the beginning of three floors, each floor is connected by air corridors. It looked like an open door, and the name of the Blood Gate Stronghold came from it.

The lower three floors of the military building were open to the outside world. This was the place where the family army received missions, registered military contributions, and exchanged materials. Allen and his team could also register here. Sileo led him to the registry office to report and got a new identity token for all the members. However, the military had yet to send out a mission, so Alan did not receive the mission for the time being.

On his way back, Sileo drove Alan around the stronghold, giving him a basic understanding of the Blood Gate Stronghold. However, the stronghold was simply too big. Even if there was a flying car, it would not be able to see all the places at once. But even so, when they returned to the family camp, it was already sunset.

As soon as he got out of the car, Regis shouted from afar, "Come over here quickly. If you take your time, they'll eat everything."

Alan smiled. It turned out that the dusty banquet had begun.
