Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 275: Wind and Cloud

At this time, the characteristic roar of the aircraft engine sounded above everyone's heads. A small airship painted with the Rose Queen's military emblem hovered over Gubao, and then slowly descended towards the open space. Immediately, Adele didn't intend to argue with Regis, her heart was beating violently, and she even pinched the corner of her skirt nervously.

Alan is finally here!

The roar of the engine gradually faded away, and finally the blue flames at the rear were completely extinguished. The hatch of the spaceship "clicked" softly, moved outwards, and then hung down towards the ground to form a deck. The figures in the somewhat dim cabin swayed, followed by a figure that got out first. That silver broken hair was bathed in the sunshine of Babylon, flowing with a dazzling luster.

Adele heard her heart pounding.

Naturally, Allen was the first to get off the spaceship. I haven't seen him for two years, and he has matured a lot. After experiencing the test of the flames of war, those ruby-like eyes will light up with a piercing light from time to time, like a sharp knife drawn out of its sheath, which makes everyone who touches it feel chills physically and mentally. He has also grown a bit taller. If it weren't for the slight childishness of a teenager on his face, he would have been no different from a young man in his seventeenth or eighteenth year.

Seeing the people in the open space, Allen's eyes turned soft, and he downplayed the sharp edge. He strode off the spaceship and walked towards everyone with his arms open: "I'm back."

Horn laughed and greeted him: "Allen, you have grown taller, grandpa..."

At the end of the sentence, Allen suddenly hugged him firmly. Horn moved, he hadn't felt such a strong hug for a long time. Originally, there were a lot of things to say, and Alan wanted to hug him, but in the end he only uttered one sentence: "Welcome home, Alan."

Allen let go of Horn, knowing that he was impulsive just now, and said a little embarrassedly: "Sorry, Grandpa. I..."

"No, I really like the hug just now, it's more direct than any words." Horn smiled lightly.

Allen nodded, and gave the butler Hessing the same strong hug. Haixin patted him on the shoulder and said, "Master has become stronger."

Then get out of the way, and let Allen be greeted by the people behind.

"Alan! Let's duel. I've been waiting for this day for a long time." Seeing Alan, Regis yelled.

Seeing him holding his sword seriously, Allen smiled and said, "Not today. Let's do it another day, and then don't cry and beg for mercy."

Regis retorted: "It's hard to say who will be beaten and cried by then."

Jin Liancheng got out at this time,

This son of an oriental aristocrat wore a long gown with wide sleeves, quite old-fashioned. He pulled Allen over, smiled and said, "It's good to see you come back, I'm really afraid that you will be slaughtered by the sword demon."

"Is Leon back?" Allen asked.

Jin Liancheng shook his head and said: "The planet you went to has only a dozen hours a day, so you came back earlier. The planet Leon went to has a time flow similar to that of the earth, so it was also two years, but he was later Come back sometime."

Seeing a trace of worry in Jin Liancheng's eyes, Allen asked in a deep voice, "Is Leon in trouble?"

"It's hard to say. In the last call, he seemed to have broken up with that brother Paul. I don't know what the result will be. Now is not the time to talk about it. You should rest well today, and we will have a good reunion tomorrow night at dusk." Jin Liancheng smiled faintly , With a flick of his sleeves, he backed away with his hands behind his back: "Meet Adele soon, she missed you very much during the two years you were not here. She almost made my ears pop."

"What are you talking about! You bastard... Damn it, I'll settle the score with you later." Adele, whose voice was already an octave higher, suddenly remembered her ladylike appearance today, so she could only lower her voice and give Jin Liancheng a hateful look. Only then looked at Allen.

Allen's eyes lit up.

Adele is wearing a gorgeous black and white dress today. The dress designed by a famous artist is simple and noble. She turned out to be more beautiful than two years ago, and her curvy breasts became the most eye-catching focus of her whole body under the ingenious design of the dress. In particular, Adele's brown hair was pulled up high, and she wore a delicate necklace on her snow-white neck. The ruby ​​named "Fairy's Tears" on the necklace was falling in front of her fair chest, which made people think It was impossible to look away.

Allen showed a row of snow-white teeth, as if carrying the sunshine in the sky, and showed this warm smile: "Adele, are you okay?"

Adele's face was flushed for the first time, and she was usually eloquent, but at this moment she stammered: "I'm fine, Ai, Ai Lun... How about you?"

"I……"

A head suddenly appeared behind Allen, and two golden ponytails immediately jumped into Adele's black and white eyes. She stared dumbfounded at a tall girl who held Alan's arm intimately, and then said with a smile, "Is this also Alan's friend? Let me introduce you."

Adele immediately stood on the spot as if petrified.

After a while, he suddenly roared: "Who is this? Allen, you bastard, didn't you go to the star of the underworld? Why did you bring back a woman of unknown origin!"

Some "unidentified" woman retorted: "Who is unidentified, you dwarf!"

"Short...short?!" Adele finally showed her true colors, baring her teeth and yelling: "A woman of your age, do you think you can pretend to be cute by wearing two ponytails? I'm going to tear off your hypocritical face !"

"A hand... age!" Obviously, these four words are extremely lethal to Lucy, and the princess of Idahua star almost burned the girl in front of her to death in one breath.

"calm!"

"calm!"

Ai Lun and Jin Liancheng hurriedly pulled the two furious girls away, so a good welcome party became a little chaotic.

Horn and Haixin stood aside with a smile, looking at these energetic young people.

Haixin greeted Lucy, Adele and others to rest in the castle. A small welcome banquet will be held in the castle at noon, and the participants are limited to the few members of the family and Alan's friends. As for Allen, he and Horn came to the study.

Allen and Horn briefly narrated their experience on the Pluto star for the past two years. When Lu Sen used the method of almost detaining them to keep them in the Fortress of Shadows, Horn "hummed" heavily. Sen's approach is extremely dissatisfied. After Allen finished speaking, Horn sighed: "A lot of things have happened in Babylon during the two years you were away."

A few great things did happen in Babylon.

One is that last year, several surface administrative regions openly declared that they refused to be managed by the Federation. They formed an alliance called Liberty's Gate. After repeated negotiations between the Federation and the Gate of Liberty failed, war was declared. This has a great impact on President Mobit. If this matter cannot be handled within a short period of time, it may affect the next presidential election.

However, Liberty Gate is not so easy to solve. The composition of their alliance is very vengeful. In addition to some officials from the original administrative region, some declining nobles joined them. Although these nobles no longer have strong strength, their talents in other fields have brought a profound impact on the gate of freedom.

After the Federation decided to use war to resolve this matter, Freedom Gate quickly responded. They said they would fight for it, but also rejected war, because it would bring greater disaster to people on other surfaces. This response undoubtedly won the support of people in other administrative regions, and taking advantage of this momentum, Freedom Gate vigorously promoted and incited more people to join their group.

In this way, if the Federation goes to war forcefully, it will only push itself to the forefront and become the target of public criticism. It can be seen that this wave will not calm down in a short period of time, and the contradiction between the surface and the floating island has completely erupted through this wave of sound.

The second matter is related to the overactive situation of the seven powerful clans in the Jotun star field in recent years. The Nilms and Kidds continued to attack the interstellar defense, which forced the Federation to increase its military budget to meet the needs of the interstellar defense. The interstellar defense war not only affected the federal government, but also affected the major families. The most obvious point is that the tax revenue has increased significantly in the past two years.

Under the pressure brought by aliens, Mobit also began to try to smooth out the contradictions between the old and new parties, prompting them to start preliminary cooperation. However, it was not Morbitt who played the key role, but Windsor Bello. After it was reported from the front line that General Greedy Wolf killed Sidi the Kidd strongman Silver Spider in one fell swoop, General Capulo, who had been avoiding the cooperation between the old and new parties, finally responded.

His golden lion will send part of his troops to the interstellar defense line to help Sirius strengthen its defense. If that's all, that's all. The key point is a statement by Capulo that the legion going to the interstellar defense line is fully under the command of Windsor Bello.

This is undoubtedly a signal.

With Kaprow's most obvious hint, those diehards in the old party have changed. Among them, the one that benefited the most was Beth Kede's Mowu Factory. The order volume in the new quarter has doubled several times. Moreover, the Fire Rifle and Fortress of Honor designed by Allen will be officially promoted to the entire Federation Army under the order of Mobitt.

Under the pressure of alien powerful races, as well as the trend of old and new bipartisan cooperation. Even though this mandate would affect the interests of many people, no one dared to object.

At least on the surface.

As for the Grant family, in the name of sponsoring the sequence master Rawlins, they opened the magic weapon factory, preparing to compete with Bethkind for the delicious big cake of magic weaponry; Let the bullets of the younger generation of the family enter the chaotic battlefield to increase their experience; for example, Bethkind has been rising in both fame and strength in the past two years, and entered the ranking of the family this year. This made the Alexander family worry about it. Recently, the patriarch Maine announced an alliance with the Grant family to deal with Beth Keld and so on, but Horn simply took it over.

After hearing this, Allen took a deep breath. The situation on Babylon is unpredictable, far beyond his imagination.
