Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 414: True Love

Anna gave Allen a Potential Arousing Potion. This potion, as its name describes it, had the effect of stimulating the potential of the user. To increase his combat strength in a short period of time, or to activate his Origin Energy to heal himself. Allen's condition clearly belonged to the latter. He was invaded by the frost energy released by the projection of the Ravis Progenitor. The frost energy even suppressed Allen's own origin energy, causing his body temperature to drop continuously.

The potion stimulated his Origin Energy, causing it to activate and naturally disperse the frost energy in his body. Otherwise, if the freezing energy was further affected, it would cause Alan's blood to coagulate and cause serious damage.

Alan didn't wake up until dusk. When he woke up, he found that he had changed into a new set of clothes and had cleaned up the dirt on his body. Seeing him wake up, Yin walked over and slapped Ellen on the shoulder. "How is it? Are you alright?"

After moving his body, other than being affected by the freezing Qi and feeling somewhat numb, he was fine. As for the other minor injuries on his body, it would not take long for him to completely recover. He looked at his new clothes and asked, "Did you change them for me?"

"No, it's Mrs. Anna. She also helped you clean your entire body." Yin revealed an ambiguous smile.

Alan immediately felt a little hot on his face. If it was like what Silver said, wouldn't Anna be able to see all of him? At this moment, Anna pushed the door open and came in. Obviously, she heard the conversation between the two of them. She snorted and said, "I helped you clean it up. How about it? I've seen more men than you've ever seen before. What's there to look at with a little ghost's body?"

Silver endured his laughter and left. Alan scratched his head and shot at Anna. "How's the gene factory?" He asked.

"What else can we do? It's ruined thoroughly enough. But there's one thing that's much more serious than that."

"You mean Elder Baker?"

Anna nodded solemnly and said, "I have already reported this news to Master as soon as possible. As for how to deal with Old Baker, it depends on Master's intentions. However, Master should not touch him recently."

"I wouldn't do anything to him," Allen said. "After all, Old Baker has some of Beth Cod's capital in his hands."

"If it's Young Master, what are you going to do?" Anna suddenly asked.

Alan thought for a moment and said, "I'll let the other two elders, Edric and Tell, find a way to break into District 8 and split some of Baker's family business. In the end, we'll take care of him after losing his power. That way, the impact will be minimized."

"Young Master has indeed grown a lot. Master's meaning is similar to what you said." Anna said cheerfully, "If there is nothing on the surface, we will return to Babylon tomorrow. You should rest early tonight."

After Anna left, Alan had already slept for a whole day, so how could he sit down? He changed into mercenary clothes and left the stronghold with silver to go to the market for fun. The night market was not lively during the day, but a few taverns were bustling with business. The two of them chose one of the rooms and asked for a few bottles of wine. They sat in a corner of the tavern and watched the exposed girls on the other side of the tavern dancing loudly and recruiting the customers of the tavern.

Although beautiful, but there is no denying that this place is full of vitality of life.

"So, you're going back tomorrow?" Silver flicked his thumb, popped the cork, and handed Alan a bottle of beer.

Alan took a sip. It didn't taste good, but the alcohol was very high. His face immediately turned hot. He nodded and said, "There's no mission on the surface for the time being. What about you? Do you want to come with me to Babylon, where the reward for your work is higher?"

"Thank you for your kindness. I appreciate it. However, I'm used to being a free man. It's better for me to stay on the surface as a hunter." '"If you come to the surface, you can come to Sequoia Town in the seventh district. Everyone there knows me. I'll treat you to a drink when you come." Silver smiled and declined.

Alan smiled and the two bottles met in midair. "You've done us a great favor this time. I owe you a favor. If there's anything you need, you can go to Matt. He's the captain of our Seventh District's Surface Commandos. You can contact me directly if you need help," he said.

"I won't let you pay back the favor that Beth Cod owes you." Yin deliberately said.

The two of them looked at each other and smiled.

A whistle sounded in the tavern at the same time. It turned out that a few dancers began to take off their clothes, so the air inside instantly scorched hot enough to melt people.

The nights in Babylon were much quieter.

In the attic of the Morsons' mansion, Adele sat cross-legged on the balcony chair, looking up at the starry night sky. Night Dawn did not say a word, and she seemed worried. The maid Sophie was cleaning the room in the attic when the door suddenly opened and Old Kate walked in. Sophie was shocked and wanted to speak. Old Kate, on the other hand, put a finger on her lips, signaling her not to make a sound.

Then he walked to the balcony.

Hearing the footsteps, Adele thought it was a maid and said, "Sophie, pour me a cup of tea."

"Yes, my dear young miss."

Hearing Old Kate's voice, Adele jumped to the ground and said awkwardly, "Grandpa, I didn't know you were here."

"It doesn't matter. But after coming back, my little leaping demon became quiet." Old Kate pulled a chair and sat down beside him.

Adele lowered her head and smiled self-deprecatingly, "Your little demon is no longer charming at all. Of course she can't be active."

"What's wrong? Did you quarrel with Alan?"

"It's worse than that, Ellen. He … doesn't like me at all. How could he quarrel?" Adele bit her lip and said, "He treats me more like a brother or sister, perhaps a close friend. But he can't go any further. Grandpa, he refuses to marry me." josei

Old Kate smiled at her granddaughter. "So, do you love Alan?"

"I..."

"Don't answer so easily. I know that you want to get rid of some obligations that you were destined to bear from birth through Alan. But before that, have you ever thought that you really fall in love with Alan?" Old Kate said indifferently, "I heard something. Not long ago, Her Highness the Empress had a big quarrel with her father in order to stay by Ellen's side. She even broke up with him. Because their voices were too loud, even if they wanted to conceal it, they could not conceal it, so they were heard by outsiders."

"I heard that Her Highness and her father don't have a good relationship, but she seems to be willing to abandon the dignity of the royal family for Ellen. I think she really likes Ellen, that's why she was able to do this."

"And you, Adele?"

Adele fell silent. Old Kate stood up, took out an invitation from her pocket, and put it on the round table. "This was sent by the Grant family earlier, and Donnie politely expressed his request for our marriage on behalf of his son Diego."

Like an electric shock, Adele raised her head with a rare flash of fear in her beautiful eyes.

Old Kate sighed and reached out to scratch her beloved granddaughter's face. "Although many people agree that the Grant family is one of the three great families, if we can join hands with them, we, who have always been weak, will rise to a higher level of strength. But I refuse. I know you won't agree, Adele."

"Grandfather." Adele's whole body trembled. She knew very well how much pressure Old Kate would have to bear to refuse the marriage.

Old Kate suddenly straightened her back and snorted coldly, "Although this is very realistic, my brothers have forgotten that our Morsen Clan did not sell out their children in exchange for their status today." These cowards, Youwu's life had long since made them forget that the prosperity of their clan depended on men's sweat and blood to fight for it. That's why Beth Cod has been able to keep advancing, while our Mommy Clan has not been able to move forward at all. "

"An agreement like this will be rejected as long as Grandpa is alive. So you still have time, Adele, don't make a rush to make your choice. Grandpa, I hope you can get real happiness."

Old Kate patted Adele's head and left the attic. Adele shrunk herself into a ball, and a mist gushed out of the corner of her eyes.

In the bright afternoon sun, Alan returned to the castle. When she arrived at Statue of Liberty on a transport ship, Anna left early, so Alan could only return by himself. As he got off the flying car, he suddenly felt something. He looked to the left, and a fist was constantly expanding in his eyes. Alan immediately slid sideways, reached out to hold the fist, and saw Leon's wicked smile behind the fist.

"Alright, Ellen. When you come back, you won't find a few brothers to catch up with. Instead, you ran to the surface to play. You don't seem to know that the surface is very dangerous right now." Leon said as he suddenly said, "See what you can do." Then, he flew up and swept across Alan's head.

Alan leaned back and swept his legs towards Leon, forcing him away before saying, "I'm not going to play."

"Who would believe it? Perhaps I met a beautiful girl on the surface. If there is such a good thing, I should be called!" Leon pointed at the tip of his toe as he glided over the ice and punched Alan in the nose.

In the blink of an eye, the two of them formed a ball on the carriage field. Their fists came and went, and their Origin Energy collided from time to time, producing thunderous vibrations. In the midst of the battle, Allen's fist brushed Leon's cheek, and at the same time, he bent his foot to support his chest. The two of them instantly separated. Ellen grinned and rubbed his chest, "Bastard, are you serious?"

"Bullshit, do men still have to put on airs when fighting? Of course it's for real, but your punch is heavy again. It hurts." Leon covered his mouth and said.

"You should be happy that that was a fist. If it was my Qianjun, you wouldn't be able to stand here and talk nonsense about a man fighting right now." Alan snorted coldly.

Leon laughed and wrapped his hand around Allen's neck. "Don't you know that fighting between brothers is good for relationships? Besides, there aren't many people who dare to fight with me. It's hard for you to come back. Don't my hands itch?"

"You can go to the black market to play black fists. Keeper is very happy to be beaten up."

"Based on those trash?" Leon sneered, "They don't even have the qualifications to touch the corner of my shirt."

Then he changed his smile and patted Ellen's chest. "I still have things to do, so I'll leave first. I'll see you at the same place tonight. If you don't come, I'll beat you up."
