Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 614: Internal Disease (1)

The moment the Dark Titan left, the blockade would naturally collapse. After losing the Dark Titan commander, the remaining Grai Giants and Catus had no other choice but to disperse. Moments later, there were only human starships left in this airspace. Those experts who were fighting off the ship returned to their starships one after another and headed to different ground bases according to the original coordinates.

Alan was no exception. He and Reina returned to the Dawn. Dawn had already opened the cabin door, and Reina was the first to dive in, followed by Belmond. Behind His Highness Allen, he glanced at the airspace that served as the battlefield and slightly knitted his eyebrows.

"What's wrong, Young Master Allen?" Belmond asked, looking at what he seemed to be searching for.

Ellen shook his head and did not answer. He went through the hatch and returned to the interior of the starship. When Rena had shattered the Dark Titan's Origin Core, the giant had wanted to retaliate. However, his Qi suddenly stopped. Reina, who was in the middle of the game, probably didn't feel anything, but Alan, who was watching the giant's movements closely, could clearly feel that someone was secretly helping him, which was why Titan's final counterattack didn't come true.

Otherwise, it was unknown whether Reina would be able to safely return to the starship. But at that time, there were many battles, and Alan did not find out who had helped him so much. Thinking further, since that person possessed such strength, why didn't he kill the Dark Titan early in the morning?

Perhaps the other party was trying to hide his identity?

As the engine spewed out blue lightning, Dawn and the other starships flew in the same direction. Moments later, the void had returned to normal. After a few breaths of time, a dark starship quietly appeared after a wriggling shadow. The starship was long and slender, and there were a few dark golden lines on both sides that twisted and extended, giving it its own dignity.

On this dark starship, two ponytails, one gray and one white, were blown backwards by the high winds. Catherine was dressed in the uniform of a Federation Major General, and she was holding a scorpion gun that she used to run amok on the battlefield. On the tip of the spear, a few strands of darkness origin energy were dissipating and gradually disappearing.

"General Catherine, Sunrise requests communication."

Catherine closed her eyes and said in a calm but unquestionable voice, "I refuse."

"But …"

"No buts, I'll take care of anything when we get back. Now, you must obey my orders. Otherwise, you can stay here forever." Catherine said without any scruples, and in fact, she did not have to worry about anything.

"Open the hatch. I want to go back." josei

After the cabin door slowly opened, Catherine turned around and walked away. The wind blew past her and whispered, "Really, why did you help my prey? Forget it, if I don't help, he will probably be killed. Don't these idiots know that randomly shattering the Dark Titan's Origin Core would trigger a self-detonation?"

The wind was still blowing high up in the sky, and it was getting fiercer and fiercer. In the end, the wind was already filled with ice fragments, as if a storm of ice and snow had blown up. In the icy wind, the dark starship turned around and chased after Allen. Halfway through the flight, the color of the ship's hull gradually dimmed. In the end, it merged with its surroundings and entered stealth mode.

Frost Star was famous for its short days and nights, and it was already evening when Dawn arrived at its destination, Kaiyan Earth Base. The sky to the west was filled with a dim gray-white light, a refraction of the sun's rays from the icy storm that enveloped the planet's surface. In the evening sky, the ground base appeared beneath the starship. Allen stood in front of the porthole, giving him a panoramic view of the base.

From the sky, one could see that the surface base building was low, and even the command building only had three floors. That was due to the extreme cold weather of Frost Star. If a building was too tall, the top floor would freeze easily. Not long after, a single night's time was enough to form a layer of ice several centimeters thick. Cleaning it up was too troublesome. Moreover, once the equipment of some communication sequences were frozen, it would be quite troublesome for this planet, which was originally inconvenient to communicate.

The scale of Kaiyan base is small and medium-sized, and its main function is collecting and supplying. After all, there was a vast forest right in front of it. There were large amounts of snow crystals associated with the Holly Forest. They collected ice crystals and transported them to the Lin Yuan Stronghold every Earth month. Then, they were transported to other places via interstellar transport ships. These are the Kaiyan base and several other similar base functions.

Even though Frost Star was small, the Federation controlled 13% of the planet and 25% of the planet was under Adahua Planet's control. The rest of the land was unknown, and it was the paradise of many dangerous natives. Even though the Federation spends an annual budget on the development of the Unknown Lands, the rate of growth in the federally controlled areas is very slow.

It was foreseeable that this battlefield would reduce the area of control instead of increasing it. But no matter what, winter always passes, although spring is always short.

This was the truest thought in the hearts of every soldier in Castellan Rock Base.

Including the Dawn, there were five starships assigned to the Castellan base. Their basic mission was to use Casterly Rock Base as a logistical supply point, allowing them to freely hunt down all the Grai Giants or Catus that appeared in the vicinity. At the same time, they can also accept the appointment of the base. Depending on the difficulty and completion of these missions, the base would organize and gather them into the Sunrise General Staff Headquarters, which would then convert them into military contributions of equal value.

To Kaiyan Base, the arrival of the experts who hunted freely had undoubtedly increased the material consumption of the base. On the other hand, with this group of experts, there was hope for some of the difficult problems that the base had faced in the past. After all, if there was no need for the Federation's combat corps, they would not come to this cold planet for some of the difficult problems that the base could not solve.

For this reason, Lieutenant Colonel Ned, the person in charge of Castellan Rock Base, revealed an unconcealable smile when he received the arrival of the family starship. He pulled up the adjutant and did not rush to the apron to welcome this group of rare guests.

One of the starships landed on the base's aeroplane. One of them was spraying sparks from the inside of the armor, but it was damaged in the previous exchange of fire with the enemy. The base's maintenance team had already cooled down the burning starship. Allen and the others gathered on the aeroplane. A moment later, Ned had already rushed over. After showing his identity, Ned looked at the sparkling starship and asked in surprise, "Did you guys get attacked?"

Alan nodded and briefly explained what had happened when he entered the frost. After hearing that they had actually encountered the Dark Titan, Ned could hardly close his mouth. When he heard that the Dark Titan had been killed by them, Ned almost thought that something was wrong with his ears.

'"Wait, you said you killed the Dark Titan? Their combat strength is equivalent to our Major General level, and it's not something ordinary generals can compare to. If it's true, did you record what happened at that time? Damn it, killing the Dark Titan is a rank three military achievement!" Ned said nervously.

Allen looked at the starship and said, "The Voyage Recorder should have taken some pictures, but there were quite a few people and starships participating in the battle. I suggest Lieutenant Colonel Ned contact the heads of the other bases and collect the recorders of the starships as much as possible to make a better assessment."

Ned nodded, indicating that he knew what to do. Then, he asked the adjutant to arrange a room for them to rest and prepare some information about the surroundings of Castellan Base. Including detailed information on the geographical environment and dangerous organisms.

An entire soldier's dormitory was cleared out for Alan and the others to live on Frost Planet. The central heating system was installed in the dormitory, and as soon as they entered the building, they no longer felt the cold outside. Alan and Reese greeted each other. After fighting a war with them, Alan had already begun to accept these allies. The two of them secretly made an appointment to meet before leaving.

Not long after, Reese brought Luma to the dormitory that Allen and the others had assigned. This time he did not bring Christine and Hillay into the room, but Reese gave Alan a hug and said, "You did a great job. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to sit here and keep warm right now."

Alan looked at Reina, who was sitting by the window, and said, "I'm not the only one who did this. Everyone worked well together."

"But I was really shocked. Those bastard giants actually set up a blockade net and waited for us to crash into them." Reese sighed, "When I saw the Dark Titan, I thought I was going to die this time. Fortunately, it was fine. I was safe and sound."

"There are still a few starships that have been shot down. I wonder how the people who escaped are now."

"The escape capsule usually sends a distress signal to locate and rescue them. I think their base has already sent a rescue team." Lucy was sitting at the table beside her, swaying her long legs.

Alan nodded, but his expression was still grave. "Do you think the attacks of those fellows from the Yordon Domain were too coincidental?" He said. Yesterday's and today's attacks, how can they be so accurate grasp of where and when we appeared. If the enemy had a reconnaissance system, could it be that we didn't? But before that, the Federation didn't react at all, as if they didn't know at all. "

"Today's attack is fine, but what about yesterday's attack? Not only did the other party send out the Dark Titan, they also sent out a troop of giants and a large number of Catus starships. With such a large-scale movement, how could the Federation's intelligence network not discover anything?"

Reese's smile stiffened and he opened his mouth wide, "Don't you want to say that there are enemies in the Federation? How is this possible? Those are enemies that cannot be compromised!"

"There are no eternal enemies in this world." Alan said a classic sentence.

"There are only eternal interests," said Raynor, who was staring at the endless darkness by the window. "Whether you betray your companions or not depends on the benefits you have. As long as the benefits are big enough, not to mention the intelligence, even the brothers and parents can betray them."

"There will always be some bastards who have no bottom line or principles. There will always be some of them."
