Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 1093: Silence

Only then did Alan see that it was Sha Xue.

Laura, who threw Sha Xue as a spear, jumped down from a tree and rushed to the assassin's side. She shook her head helplessly. That person's chest was pierced by the blood brake, and his organs were even stirred into paste by the energy of the blood brake. This sword's killing intent was even heavier than Ellen's previous Blood Concealment. Even if Laura wanted to stay alive, it would be difficult to do so.

Only then did the sudden attack come to an end.

Afterwards, Fares picked up the scattered arrows. Ali examined the body of the deceased and found no obvious signs. Ellen wasn't surprised by this. The moment they attacked, they wanted to take people's lives. It was obvious that they wanted to kill their own side. How could the mastermind behind the scenes leave behind clues so easily? Even if he did, it was most likely misleading. As for who was behind it, Alan could roughly guess.

In any case, it was either Hawson or Savis. Only the two princes were capable of making a move in the Royal Spring Hunt. They arranged for these dead men who were not on the Spring Hunt participants list to come.

"Keep going."

The range of the hunting grounds was so large that it would be a waste of time to track down these dead soldiers. Allen decided to move on, and if they did not give up, they would come to him and save him a lot of effort.

As Alan had expected, when they saw the Silver Winter Mountain Range, they were attacked twice. The opponent also retreated after leaving behind the corpses of one or two of his companions, acting very straightforwardly. It was already dusk. Alan decided to camp at the foot of the mountain and enter the mountain range tomorrow. Thus, Fares found a high slope as a camp. After allocating the guards, Alan sat down with an arrow in his hand.

Laura walked to his side and sat down with Sha Xue in her arms. She took the arrow and said, "Something's wrong."

"Indeed, it is unusual." Alan nodded and looked in the direction he had always been. At this moment, the sunset fell on the forest sea, as if it had coated Lin Hai with a layer of blood, filled with a murderous aura. Alan whispered, "Those assassins were actually able to accurately grasp the time and location of our recuperation. All three attacks took place when we stopped to recuperate. Apart from the first time Ari discovered us, we were caught off guard the next two times. How did they manage to grasp our whereabouts? That's suspicious."

Laura whispered to Ellen, who nodded and smiled.

After dinner, Ali took the longbow and placed it beside him. Suddenly, he lightly pressed one of his hands on it. Ari raised his head and Alan's smiling face entered his eyes. "It's been a hard day for you," said Alan. "I'll patrol the night for you."

"How can this be?" Ali smiled and said, "If it weren't for Earl Allen, we would have been finished by now. Let me handle this small matter."

Alan nodded. "Then I won't force you. In short, if you need any help, you must tell me."

Ari put on his bow and said straightforwardly, "Alright."

Then he jumped down the slope and disappeared into the night. Alan counted in his heart. After a few minutes, Laura nodded at him. Ellen gestured to Gao Hu, "Shall we go for a walk together?"

Hearing what he said, Gao Hu narrowed his eyes, but he still stood up with his axe on his shoulder. He grinned and said, "Where is the count going?"

"Hunting."

Gao Hu was stunned, "It's so late, why are you still hunting?"

"Some prey always like to roam around in the dead of night, because at this time, they can do something that cannot be seen." Alan said indifferently.

Tonight, the moonlight was dim, and thin clouds flew through the sky, covering the stars and moons. Ari shuttled between the stones, his palm pressed against the ice-cold hard rock. Those sharp stone edges pressed against his palm, leaving behind red marks. He clenched his teeth, presumably feeling very uncomfortable. Now he suspected that every night in Oliska, at least those women's soft breasts were a hundredfold more beautiful to the touch than stones.

They could already see the forest lines not far away. The forest started to sparse when they arrived at the foot of the mountain. The trees were extinct in an open space more than ten meters away, like an invisible boundary. Ali observed his surroundings. At this moment, he was far away from the camp, and his location far exceeded the range of the night patrol. The Ranger did not notice this. He hid in the shadow of the stone and let out a crow-like cry.

A hoarse and deep voice sounded under the night. It was four long and three short, clearly a signal of some kind.

A moment later, silhouettes appeared at the edge of the forest line. The black-clothed man with the longbow and sword on his back quickly rushed over. Ali walked out without saying a word, pointing in the direction of the high slope. Under the dark night, there was a faint flame, which was very easy to recognize. The leader nodded and made a gesture. The dozen or so people silently turned around and headed in the direction of the flickering flames. They moved silently like black ghosts. Not long after, Ali could no longer see a single person.

He retreated back to the rocks and followed.

When they arrived near the hillside, the leader of the black-clothed man stopped and pointed at the fire on the hillside. Everyone immediately put their hands into their bosoms and took out fire thunder after fire thunder. After lighting the fuse, they threw it at the slope. The flaming lightning let out a dull whistle. In the blink of an eye, the slope exploded one after another. Fireballs rushed to explode one after another, and gravel splashed from the top of the slope. After the explosion, the black-clothed man flew up the hill. However, when they rushed through the thick smoke and fire, they discovered that there was no one in the camp except for a few burning tents.

The leader shouted angrily, "What's going on?"

"That ranger betrayed us?"

"Bastard Yali, come out and explain to me!" The leader roared down the slope.

His voice echoed across the hillside.

Ali didn't dare to neglect it. He rushed up the hill and saw the empty camp. His expression changed drastically, "Impossible, they were here just now! Not good, this is a trap!"

Just as he shouted, a sharp howl suddenly sounded in the night sky, and the chest of a black-clothed man beside him suddenly exploded. It happened so quickly that he couldn't believe it. He lowered his head and looked at the hole in his chest before he collapsed and died. Blood sprayed out from Ariel and the leader's body, and the black-clothed man immediately dispersed, searching for battle spots. The leader and Ali were among them, and then an angry voice sounded, "Ali, you traitor! Have you forgotten who took you in when you were at your wits' end, His Highness Julian! But you betrayed His Highness! I'm going to cut off your stinking head!"

Yali smiled bitterly. Of course, he could tell that it was Gao Hu. Without answering, he shot in the direction of the sound!

Gao Hu emerged from a rock and just as he finished cursing Ali, he saw a powerful arrow shoot at him. He hurriedly tilted his head, and the arrow brushed past, bringing along a few of his beards. Gao Hu shouted and jumped down with his axe. Along with him, there were several other figures who jumped onto the hillside, including Alan. The black-clothed man immediately raised his bow and fired. Alan used his scabbard to pull out a few arrows and rolled on the ground. Then, he rebounded and locked onto a black-clothed man to close his saber and collide with him. The man was knocked into the air by him, and before he could land, Adele, who was hiding in the sniper position, shot her head off.

Alan rushed towards the other two. Seeing that they didn't have time to draw their bows, the two of them simply pulled out their swords and Origin Energy burst forth and silently collided with them.

Red King drew his scabbard and a cloud of fire swept across the slope. Alan passed between the two of them and headed straight for the person with the most aura. At this moment, the two people behind him trembled, and a wave of blood sprayed out from their waist. The two black-clothed men were slashed by Allen's saber.

In an instant, the bow of the camp on the slope rang and the sword rang, causing a chaotic battle.

Alan stepped forward and used his shoulders to knock away the two black-clothed men who were trying to block the way. Naturally, Regis' sword and saber were there to greet them. The Scarlet King bounced up and drew an almost perfect arc in the air. The blade was wrapped in dark red explosive flames, illuminating the leader's eyes. The black-clothed leader released his Origin Energy, and a tornado rose from the ground, causing the Crimson King to rise slightly. After snatching such a gap, the leader's hands shook. The two short blades behind his waist came to his hand and drew out a ball of exquisite crimson saber light, cutting and dispersing the high temperature explosive flames that the Red King spat out.

Alan sneered. Red King's saber in his hand was heavier than a saber. After receiving a few slashes, the black-clothed leader had no choice but to retreat in order to fight for the buffer space. The more he fought, the more frightened he became. He felt that Allen's offensive was domineering. Each slash had the power of a jade mountain toppling down, a sea of rage rising, and a power that no human could resist. Every time the leader took a step back, he would leave a deep footprint on the ground. That was because he was unable to withstand the heavy pressure of Allen's slash, and the remaining strength would spread to the ground.

Another blade was pressed down, and the blade exploded with flames. It was like a comet's thick flame tail, pressing down with the blade. In comparison, the leader's saber light was as fragile as silk, and he could no longer withstand Allen's attack. With a scream, the exquisite saber light was washed away by the fire clouds. Red King slashed across his chest, and the leader of the black-clothed man threw his saber away and fell down the slope. In midair, strands of scarlet flames sprayed out from his wounds, instantly burning him into a fireball. After the fireball fell to the ground, it rolled a few times and stopped moving.

Alan restrained his explosive flames. Red King's blade was completely red, and wisps of green smoke were rising from his blade. Looking at the camp, the battle was over. Ari was still struggling under Fares' spear. The blade of his sword climbed onto the frost and his movements became increasingly slow. Fares suddenly thrust his spear forward and the black ice transformed into a black dragon, piercing through Ali's sword momentum and stabbing him on the shoulder. Ali let out a miserable scream as he was shot back, but his wounds quickly froze, and he didn't even have time to spray out blood. At this moment, Gao Hu hit Yali horizontally and knocked him down. He raised his axe and was about to chop it down. Alan hurriedly shouted, "Leave him alive."

So the axe rested on the side of Ari's neck, pressing down on his beating arteries. Gao Hu said angrily, "This bastard should be killed clean!"

"I want to ask him who ordered him to be executed, and His Highness Prince Julian is qualified to execute him." Alan said indifferently.

Gao Hu snorted from his nostrils, but he didn't dare to object. Alan walked over and was about to ask him who ordered him to do so when Ali's head suddenly blossomed and a small piece of scalp flew out from his forehead. Blood sprayed out from his mouth and covered Gao Hu's face. Then, in the distant night sky, a violent gunshot rang out. Then, another sharp howl appeared. That was the unique voice of the violent howl!

Seeing Ali Ruo die, Gao Hu was stunned for a moment before he said, "What the hell is this?"josei
