Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 1564: Simir

Although he lacked substantial evidence, Alan believed that his deduction was at least seventy to eighty percent close to the truth. This wasn't hard to figure out. One of the most important tools in Lamo's hands was the Shadow Army's intelligence network. If the largest number of Shadow Army were to be regarded as the shield of the empire, then the elite Berserk Shadow Army would be the blade of the empire. As for the Shadow Army, it would be the eyes and ears of the empire. Once the Dark Shadow Army betrayed the empire, it would be equivalent to the empire's emperor being blinded, naturally unable to see or hear anything. If the others had been secretly communicating with the Kidds, they should have been found out by Ramo long ago. That was why the Dark Shadow Army would remain silent only if Ramo was the mole. This was also the biggest drawback of the empire. An important state apparatus like the intelligence network could not be controlled by only one person, but because the one sitting on the throne was Sbernak. Forgive me for giving Lamo ten guts to betray him, but if it was Alan, it would be a different matter.

"Damn it, I wonder if I can contact Mitinus at this distance." Allen clenched his fists and lightly smashed them on the armrest. "If you can't do it, you can only rely on Twilight to notify Mitinas and then use weapons like Star Beasts to conduct space searches."

Alan could roughly imagine that Demoic Ring City was no longer calm, but with Twilight's strength, Lamar was not qualified to stop her unless he met Devlin. Normally, Twilight should have escaped from Demoic Ring City with Laura and the others by now. Even though the empire was large, the only thing they could go to was Mokedan. Therefore, if Mitinas didn't have any Star Beasts, Mockdan could still send out a Star Ship, hoping that Melani still controlled the city and didn't bribe Ramo.

Just as he was contemplating his escape, Alan suddenly felt the light in the cabin dim. He leaned against the porthole and looked out. He saw the bottom of a starship. Above his escape pod, a starship was slowly sliding past. The shape of the ship was neither the streamlined black-and-red hull of the Balts, nor the heavy industrial starship of the Kidds. This starship was earthy yellow. With Alan's eyesight, he could easily see that there were many places on the bottom that were stripped of paint. There were traces of slight deformation on many parts of the starship. It didn't look like a battle-shaped starship, but more like a transport ship. At this time, armor opened at the bottom of the hull and two robotic arms hung down. They landed above the escape pod. A moment later, Alan felt the escape pod vibrate in the cabin. It looked like it was lifted up by the robot arm. He didn't know who was on the starship, but Alan was already very satisfied with this result. At least, it allowed him to get rid of the situation where he couldn't do anything in space.

A dozen seconds later, the escape cabin stabilized, and a red dot appeared at the cabin door. As the red dot moved, the cabin door sparks splashed everywhere. It should be someone cutting the cabin door with a laser. Alan sat motionless. A moment later, the cabin door had been removed. When seven or eight pillars of light shone in, there was a loud shout, "Don't move!"

Alan raised his hand and asked, "Who are you?"

A few pillars of light were thrown onto the ground and seven or eight aliens could be seen standing outside. They clearly came from different planets, and none of them looked the same. The clothes on these people's bodies weren't uniform, and the weapons in their hands were also varied. Suddenly, the two aliens in front of them shook. Someone squeezed out from behind them, but it was a woman. She was petite and looked very similar to a human. Apart from her pale blue skin and two plush ears coming out of her golden hair, this alien woman was like a human girl of fifteen or sixteen. If she had a tail on her back, she would be no different from a cat girl. The girl wore a leather wallet, which was protected by iron plates on her shoulders. Inside was a black chest band, a pair of shorts under her flat lower abdomen, a beam pistol hanging from her belt, and short boots. His left hand was normal, but his right hand was clearly modified. It was a mechanical arm, and its palm was disproportionately larger than the palms of those alien men. There were a few metal ducts on his arm and there were no other abnormalities. However, robotic arms like this usually concealed weapons and were not as simple as they looked. The girl seemed to be the leader of the aliens. She blinked her eyes and looked at Alan from head to toe. Then she said, "Who are you? From the looks of it, you definitely won't be an ordinary person. Also, tell me, what happened here?"

"I want to get out of here before I answer your questions. To be honest, I've been here for two hours and I've had enough."

The girl quickly exchanged glances with the men around her and nodded, "You'd better be honest. I'll keep an eye on you. If you do anything strange, these guys won't be soft-hearted."

Alan smiled at such a threat. In his eyes, although these people looked fierce and fierce, their Origin Energy wasn't much. The strongest one should be that girl. The Origin Energy radiance on her body overflowed outside her body, but it looked like she was only around Level 25 or Level 6. Seeing Alan's faint smile, the girl narrowed her eyes, but she still made a gesture to her companion to retreat a little. Alan drilled out and stretched his muscles and bones. Looking at Allen's armor and cloak, the girl's eyes were filled with doubt, "Now it's time to answer my question. Your outfit is like those ancient nobles of the Barbarians, but you. If I'm not mistaken, are you human?"

"Actually, that's the case. That's right, I'm a human." Alan looked at her and said, "A human settled in Agares. You see, I need to go back to Agares, and if you send me back, I promise you a good reward."

"Compared to that, I want to know more about what you've encountered." The girl's expression was a little nervous. "You can't be drifting in space for no reason, right? We found the wreckage of a starship not far away. Did you get attacked?" josei

"Yes, my fleet was killed." Allen gave a general account of the energy torrent's attack on the fleet.

The girl instantly took a deep breath. At this moment, a voice interrupted, "Miss, it should be correct. We discovered that there was a high-energy reaction earlier. In addition to what he said, it should be the Kidds' sabotage cannon. They finally used that space weapon!"

It was an old alien with dark blue skin. It looked like he was of the same race as the girl. His body was covered in wounds, and his arms and legs were replaced with machinery. He stared at Alan and said, "You mentioned the fleet just now, didn't you? Why did the Kidds attack your fleet?"

"Because I am the emperor of Demonic Shadow Empire, and it is clear that the Kidds and some of my subordinates secretly conspired to rebel."

All the aliens were stunned for a moment, and then one of them laughed. Almost everyone, including the girl, was laughing, except for the old man. The girl laughed and said, "It's ridiculous that you say you're the emperor of Demonic Shadow Empire. Well, there's a limit to boasting. Who doesn't know that the emperor of Demonic Shadow Empire is the supreme being, but I've never heard that His Majesty is a human."

"It's up to you whether you believe me or not. Now that I've told you what you want to know, go back to the question just now and bring me back. I'll give you the reward." Alan said.

The girl shook her head. "I refuse. We have more important things to do. We just happened to be passing by here. We don't have time to send you back."

"Alright then. Then there are small starships on this ship. I can buy them from you." Alan patted his armor and said, "This thing is worth more or less."

"First of all, we don't have any other starships. Also, you're thinking too much about buying a starship with all your armor." The girl said, "Well, we're going somewhere. We can take you anywhere. You can find another boat there."

"I don't have time to hang out with you," Allen said. "If you don't want to, I can only seize the boat."

Hearing this, the girl narrowed her eyes and the men around her raised their weapons. Alan narrowed his eyes slightly, and the cloak at his feet suddenly rose. Immediately, a powerful aura filled the entire space. The light in the cabin dimmed, sparks fell from the surroundings, and the temperature of the space soared. If he closed his eyes, he would probably think that he had fallen into a cauldron. The gun in the alien's hand suddenly turned red and hot, and even the girl's metal arm gradually lit up with a wisp of red light. The girl's expression finally changed and she shouted with difficulty, "Stop, please stop!"

Alan withdrew his aura.

This time, the alien's gaze towards him was completely different. The girl's eyes lit up with a kind of fanaticism. She placed her hand on her chest and said, "My name is Simeel, and Tarot are both ancient. We are going to Vega. Can you be our bodyguard?"

Ellen was stunned for a moment and shook his head. "Don't you understand what I'm saying? I'm going back to Agares. I'm not interested in being your bodyguard. If you're not going to send me back, I can only use a little bit of force."

The girl called Simeel laughed and said, "Even if you steal this ship, it will be useless. It was modified by me and the operating system is encrypted. No one can control it except me."

Alan had a headache.

Then the old Gus stepped forward and said, "Well, whether you're really the emperor of Demonic Shadow Empire or not, you shouldn't be friends with the Kidds, right?" We are also enemies of the Kidds, why don't we join forces? You be our bodyguard once, and when we're done, we'll tell you about the destruction of the cannons. If that space weapon were to be used directly against Agares, even you would be helpless, right? But we know the information about the sabotage cannon, we know how to make it unable to work. Because we made it! "
