Edge of the Apocalypse
Chapter 821: Workshop

["What do you think they're doing?"

Lying on a rock that protruded out of the cliff, on a mountain peak that was more than 200 meters high, the icy winds in the north almost blew people into popsicles. Of course, Ellen and Laura were definitely not among them. They were lying side by side. Looking down, it was a hilly mountain range. There were a few low mountains lying between them, not exceeding a hundred meters in height, and the lowest one was only a few dozen meters. There were many mountains like this in this continuous mountain range.

Large numbers of Catus gathered in the mountains below, and they stuck metal poles into the higher ground. Light flashed at the top of the metal pole, looking like some sort of signal transmitter. Very quickly, this area that was more than a kilometer wide had already been plugged into the metal pole. Under the curtain of night, there seemed to be hundreds of eyes blinking in the mountains.

"In short, it won't be a good thing." Said Ellen, and strands of Laura's hair drifted to the side of his face, tickling him. He backed off a little and gestured for Laura and him to leave.

The two of them retreated from the stone bar and found a place to hide from the wind. Hubble and Laura were now in a cave halfway up the mountain, and they had only come to the top of the mountain to scout for Catus' movements. However, after looking at it for a long time, he still couldn't see the path of the sect. Until just now, the Catus had inserted metal rods into a square of nearly a kilometer, which seemed to be part of some sort of operation.

As she pondered, she heard Laura shout softly. Alan looked up and said, "What's wrong?"

The Hulma woman shook her head stubbornly, but Alan noticed that her shoulders were stiff and frowned, "Turn around."

Laura obediently put down her sword and turned around. Alan swept her long hair away, only to see some charred skin on Laura's pink back oozing blood. Alan hurriedly took out a hemostatic spray and bandage from his backpack and treated her wounds three or two times. "Next time, you have to tell me about something, especially the injuries. If you leave these wounds untreated, you might get infected," he said.

"I see." Laura turned around and said, but the wound was affected, and her facial features immediately twisted. Suddenly, the mountain trembled violently, and Laura lost her balance and fell on Alan.

This was the first time Alan was so close to Laura. Her keen senses constantly described how plump her body was. Laura was like a ripe honey peach waiting to be picked. Alan immediately reacted, and Laura's body also became boiling hot. She twisted, and the deadly friction almost made Alan groan. He could feel that the two peaks that this woman was pressing on his body were filled with elasticity, and the front part of her body became even harder. Looking at Laura again, her eyes almost spat out fire. Laura simply lifted her thigh and reached down to Alan's waist.

Alan's head went blank with a bang when the five fingers closed in on him. When he came back to his senses, he realized that he had pushed Laura down and pressed her down. She held onto Laura's chest tightly with both hands, while the woman beneath her panted slightly. Her two long legs had already wrapped around his waist, leaving him in a position that was easy for him to move about.

"What are you waiting for?" "Don't you want me?" Laura asked.

"Of course. In fact, no man can refuse you. Trust me, I wish I could eat you now. But the time is wrong, and the place is wrong … Eh!" Alan looked up at the sky, and the already deep night became even more oppressive. A huge shadow moved behind the clouds in the night sky, flickering with light from time to time. The wind pressure it brought along caused the mountain to tremble.

It was a mothership!

Seeing this scene, the flames in Laura's eyes slowly disappeared. She let go of Alan and raised her sword to prepare for the battle. Alan pulled her to the ground to avoid exposing herself. At this time, the mothership began to descend from the clouds. The clouds were crushed and burst by it, turning into pillars of clouds that entangled the hull of the ship. The mothership was covered in ferocious spikes, and there was a huge face everywhere on the ship's hull. These faces were either dignified, ugly, furious, or frightened. None of them looked the same. At first glance, it was as if countless giants were looking down on the earth. In those faces, their eyeballs kept rolling, and they shot out pillars of light, illuminating the mountains below as if they were daylight.

The gigantic mothership, which was over a thousand meters long, was hovering in the darkness. Those strange-looking turrets, rough and threatening energy barrels, and densely packed firing arrays all displayed their tyrannical power to the world.

When Alan couldn't figure out what the floating mothership wanted to do, the two pieces of armor at the bottom of the ship suddenly split to the left and right, retracting. Following that, an energy cannon poked out from behind the armor plate. The muzzle of the cannon was several meters wide, and one could tell that it was a powerful weapon like the main cannon of a battleship. At this moment, a faint red light gradually lit up in the center of the pitch-black muzzle. Countless dark-red fluorescent lights gathered from all directions, all of them restrained within the muzzle.

As a result, the red light rapidly expanded, and the glowing light continued to condense in a spiral shape. In the blink of an eye, the glowing light turned into beams. Red ribbons of light rotated, and a ball of light with dark red edges and blazing white cores was condensed from the center!

In the sky, the pressure was like a sea. Alan immediately made up his mind, pulled Laura and ran away. At the same time, he let out a long howl regardless of his exposed figure. That was the signal they had agreed to with Belmond and the others. The moment they heard Alan's warning, it was the time for them to retreat.

The main cannon of the mothership struck, and they seemed to be far from where the cannon had struck. But the heavens knew how powerful the main cannon was. If its might was enough to drag them into it, then it would truly be wrongly killed. Alan pulled Laura all the way. Laura was not strong in speed unless she activated her wild summoning posture. Now that she was in a hurry, she naturally didn't have time to use it, but Alan would occasionally mention her, so that she wouldn't fall behind.

At this moment, the pressure behind him surged, and Alan turned around to look. The muzzle of the mothership's main cannon lit up, and the ball of light instantly turned into a dark red pillar of fire that spat out! From afar, it looked like a waterfall that fell straight down and reached the ground in an instant. The mountain below lit up, and the pillar of fire touched the ground, giving rise to a thick dark red light. This ball of light quickly spread out in all directions, spreading through countless gullies, hills, caves, and peaks like a stream of water!

At this moment, the world was silent. Only that ball of light continued to expand. It contained extremely terrifying energy. It seemed gentle like water, but it drowned it. Whether it was the mountains or the hills, they were all melted and annihilated by it! It was as if a dark red sun had risen in the mountains. The diameter of this sun was three hundred meters. The substance that protruded out of the ground within its coverage completely disappeared, filled with a tyrannical aura of destruction.

After the sun stabilized, there were two flashes before it exploded. A huge fireball slowly rose into the air. Above the fireball, a strong wind howled. Under the curtain of night, the clouds were scattered and corona-like ribbons of light fluttered. These ribbons of light seemed beautiful, but they were extremely destructive. Wherever they floated, the mountains were silently sliced open, and deep ravines were left on the ground. Then the earth flames arrived late, spreading out from the fireball and rapidly spreading out from the countless ravines cut by the ribbons of light. In an instant, it had already filled up nearly a kilometer square of the ground. Then, a blazing fire curtain suddenly erupted. The high temperature and impact of the flames washed the earth from the inside out. The terrifying tremor lasted for ten seconds before gradually disappearing.

The mountain that Allen and the others had been hiding on had been melted. The rocks on the edge of the mountain were in the shape of rolling rocks, while the mountain in the middle was completely crystallized and several dozen meters deep. It looked like a huge piece of black colored glass.

On the back of the mountain, Alan and Laura climbed to the top. Lying on the ground and looking ahead, a flat piece of land appeared in the mountain area after the explosion. There were no protrusions on the ground. The hills and low mountains had been flattened just like that, leaving behind only a flat land that was orderly and still filled with flames.

At this moment, Alan knew what the Catus were doing with the metal poles stuck in the ground. The area that those things were marking was exactly the area of this artificial flat ground. This familiar scene reminded Alan of the man-made flat ground in the Chaos Canyon on Frost Planet. His heart sank. Could it be that the Catus were going to do the same thing again in the Garden of Eden, using collapse resonators to transform this superplanet into an artificial black hole?

However, this action was a bit too big, and it was also monitoring one of the Federation's strongholds. It was almost impossible for him to quietly complete the planetary transformation on Frost Planet like he did on Frost Planet. At this time, a faint sense of pressure appeared in the sky. Alan raised his head and saw that the mothership had begun to descend. It constantly lowered its altitude and finally stopped at the artificially leveled construction site.

At this moment, a strange thought arose in Alan's mind. Could it be that this mothership deliberately fired a cannon to find a berth for herself?

As soon as the mothership came to a stop, the Catus, who had been hiding in advance to avoid being affected by the power of the explosion, surged out from all directions in the mountains like ants and gathered towards the mothership. At this moment, the hatch doors of the mother ship continued to open, and the lift decks extended to the ground, joining together. Then, tall figures emerged from the ship's body. They were actually Grai giants.

Among them were two Dark Titans. As soon as these giants stepped out of the ship, they scattered in all directions, forming a three-dimensional defensive network. When the defensive net was completed, the gathered Catus boarded the mothership. A moment later, some machines drove down from the mothership. Inside were vehicles similar to engineering vehicles, as well as robots that walked upright and had multiple arms. What these tools did next confused Alan.

They actually surrounded the mothership, and then began to dismantle the straight nail thorns, or the huge face with different shapes. Thus, in the blink of an eye, this man-made flat ground had become a workshop.
