Edge of the Apocalypse
Chapter 761: The General's Position

"I don't think so. After all, dogs can jump over walls in a hurry. It's just that I'm not afraid, that's all."

Roddy spread out his hands and smiled. His spring breeze-like smile made Toure feel as dazzling as it was dazzling. Toure desperately calculated the necessity and result of his attack in his heart. In just three or four seconds, he decided to give up this idea. According to the information he received, Roddy was a Level 28 expert, one level higher than Toure himself.

It wasn't a big deal to be a level higher, but Roddy's level was something that was published in the federal archives. However, who could be sure if this was just superficial strength? If this really happened, Toure would definitely not get any benefits. And if the situation were to rise to the height of the family feud, it would be useless for the current Goliath Clan. On the contrary, it was possible that by provoking Bescott, the giant, the newly raised clan of Gullit had ushered in an eternal night of despair before they could see the dawn of glory.

That was definitely not what Toure wanted.

"Look, I knew you wouldn't do that." Roddy clapped his hands and said, "You are too cautious. There are too many things to worry about. You don't even try to fight it out. Toure, that's your pattern. Forget it, let's call it a night. Tomorrow I will prepare a gift for your son and make sure he is satisfied."

Roddy blinked at Toure and turned to leave. The figure landed in Toure's eyes full of temptation. In his eyes, Roddy was unguarded. With his ability, this distance only passed in the blink of an eye. Toure could even imagine that the soldiers on the wall had no time to react when he pasted it on Roddy. Or we can use this opportunity to seriously injure Roddy. This is a good opportunity to deal a blow to Beth Cod.

All these thoughts flashed through Toure's mind in a flash of lightning and flint, as he moved so much that his feet started to leave the roof slightly. A beam of intense light suddenly covered his head, and then he heard the sound of the flying ship breaking through the air. '"What's going on? I remember when you first arrived at the stronghold, I already said that families are not allowed to use force in the stronghold. The Federation will not care about your disputes, but if you use force in the stronghold, I will arrest you two on charges of endangering public safety." Russen's stony voice sounded through the airship's radio.

Toure could only let out a sigh of pity. At this moment, the black shadow beneath his head was actually Russen jumping off the flying ship. As if being pulled by an invisible force field, Russen slowly descended and landed between the Golett convoy and Bethcock's camp. He swept his gaze across Toure and Roddy like lightning, "Are you planning to disperse by yourself, or should I send troops to clear the field?"

Roddy turned around and leaned against the wall. "General Russen, you came in time."

His tone carried a hint of regret, causing Tu Lei's heart to feel strange, and he faintly felt that something was wrong. Russen snorted coldly, "If I were to come any later, Mr. Fording's gun would probably not be idle, would it?"

The general suddenly twisted his head and looked at the other side of the night. Toure looked in his direction. Apart from seeing the stronghold highway under the boundless darkness, there was nothing suspicious about it. In Russen's eyes, however, the eastward straight line was about 1,500 meters away, leaving only a dark silhouette of a building in the darkness. On the rooftop, red lights flashed. When the lights lit up, a figure appeared in Russen's eyes.

Spear Fiend Fuding!

"Your eyesight is really good, this old man." Fuding still had a lazy smile on his face, and he stretched out his hand to pull the trigger in Lusen's direction. Beside him was a magic energy sniper rifle. Although it was only an ordinary model, if it landed in Fuding's hands with his ability, it would be enough to hit all targets within two kilometers and severely injure them in an instant.

Originally, this gun was meant to be aimed at Toure. If he couldn't help but attack Roddy, who was deliberately exposing a flaw, Fording planned to blow off one of his hands or legs. Due to the restriction of the rules of the game, Fuding did not want to offend the Federation, so he would not take Toure's life in the stronghold. However, that was not much different from blasting off Tu Lei's hands and feet. After heavily injuring Tu Lei, the Goliath Clan had no choice but to leave the battlefield early.

After that, the fate of this clan could already be predicted. For Toure, that was probably more uncomfortable than killing him.

"That's a good opportunity, too bad." Fuding picked up his gun and whistled off the rooftop. With Russen around, the previous plan would be useless.

Russen turned around and looked at Toure, who did not know that he had escaped. "Mr. Toure, am I not clear enough?" He snorted.

"But General Russen, they …"

"Enough!" Russen shouted impatiently, "Isn't it just the conflict between the two kids? Don't tell me you don't even have that much equipment!"

Toure's face turned pale. Russen's words clearly told him to swallow the bitter water in his stomach. Even Russen was on Bethcodt's side. No matter how capable Toure was, he could not shake this combination. He could only bitterly smile and say, "I know."

He jumped out of the flying car, gestured and got into it. The convoy turned around and headed wherever they came from.

Russen watched the convoy leave before turning to Roddy and saying, "Come to the command building tomorrow morning."

"I will obey your orders." Roddy said seriously, but the smile on his face showed no sincerity.

Russen ignored him and looked up. A beam of light descended from the flying ship in the night sky, bringing the general back to the flying ship. Seeing the airship turn into a streak of blue light and fly towards the direction of the command building, the officer on the gate wall said in surprise, "I didn't expect General Russen to speak for us. Looking at the grim appearance of the Goliath family, it's really a big heart."

"Idiot." Roddy cursed, confusing the officer.

He took out a cigar from his jacket, lit it and stuffed it into his mouth, and spat out a few rings of smoke. "Don't think that the old man is kind. The more he stands on our side, the more he hates us. That old man made our two families completely enemies. Although I don't care, old Russen's actions are really strange."

After all, according to the principles of the Federation, Russen should remain neutral instead of leaning towards Beth Cod like before. Just like Roddy said, not only would he not be able to resolve the enmity between the two families, he would only make Toure hate Beth Cod even more. As a result, Russen's approach is worth scrutinizing.

Roddy knocked on his head and said, "It's good that Bale is here. After all, using my brain is not my forte."

So tonight's disturbance ended like this. The next day, Roddy was invited to the command building. He was not surprised when he saw Toure. Sure enough, Russen called them here today to mediate. Finally, after some bargaining, Roddy paid a compensation of about three million federal dollars. The Goliath Clan was responsible for treating the injured Kamo and the others. According to Russen, they couldn't leave behind any future troubles.

This kind of treatment was barely acceptable to both sides. Of course, Toure did not think that this matter would pass just like that, but that was also a matter for the future. He definitely could not seek revenge now, otherwise he would offend Russen.

The next few days were calm. Alan did recovery training every day to familiarize himself with his greatly evolved body, waiting for the stronghold to issue another mission. During this time, he often walked around the stronghold, and did not see any troubles coming from the Goliath family. Evidently, Toure had restrained his own people, but Alan knew that this was just the surface. People like Toure would definitely repay him afterwards.

In the stronghold, Ellen didn't need to worry. After leaving the stronghold, the Goliath Clan might not be able to take advantage of it. That night, when he fought with Sabott, Allen had gained more experience in the duel with the experts. Now, his body's strength had increased by a large margin, and his Origin Energy had already entered the liquid condensation stage. Even if he ran into someone as powerful as Toure, Allen was confident that he would be able to fight back. Besides, there were two followers beside him, Hubble and Belmore. With Regis and the others, it was likely that Toure was in danger.

After visiting Celine at the hospital that day, Alan returned to the camp and received two sets of equipment he had exchanged for a few days ago. The female soldier who advised him personally delivered the equipment to his door and apologized, "Because there were too many materials exchanged in the past few days, I only brought out these two sets of equipment now. I hope that Young Master Allen will not take offense."

Alan smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. I'm not in a hurry to use it."

The female soldier nodded, "Then please accept it."

Allen first opened one of the chests. Inside was the various parts of the shield, the Eternal Guardian. This set of armor is clearly treated so that the surface of the armor appears to be matt-glossy. The dark-colored armor looked simple and unadorned. It didn't look dazzling at all, but it perfectly met Allen's requirements. Thinking back to the time when the Blade Armor was too brightly colored, Alan even painted it to prevent it from becoming too conspicuous and becoming a living target on the battlefield.

Although the name "Eternal Guardian" was resounding, he hadn't expected that the real thing would be very simple. As expected from the military, it was more practical than appreciative.

The other box contained a set of weapons, Dawn of the Empire. The Shield of Dawn and the Sword of Awakening weren't placed separately, but were instead stored together. There was a dark sheath hidden inside the shield. Normally, only the sword would be kept in the shield, and it would only be unsheathed when needed. This was a set of magical energy weapons, so Alan naturally didn't forget to try to activate these two weapons before confirming the signature.

"It's an honor to serve you, Young Master Allen. If you need to exchange any more materials or equipment in the future, please do not hesitate to look for me. I will do my best to serve you." The female soldier smiled and said goodbye. Ellen had given him a lot of tips. Of course, she was looking forward to a second chance to serve Ellen.

Alan naturally knew this and politely agreed, sending her out of the camp personally.
