Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 1340: Look North

In the Realm of the Forgotten, it was always the weather of the extreme night, and there was not much difference between day and night. Outside the Forgotten Realm, however, Agares had not yet entered the extreme daytime, so it was time for the sun to shine brightly during the daytime. The moon was dim that night.

It was a good night.

Even a race as aggressive and bellicose as the Barbarians would enjoy the tranquility of the night. Especially in this kind of inland city that was far away from the sidelines, under the blurry multicolored lights, the long streets and alleys were filled with a rare tranquil atmosphere.

It was in this kind of night that a figure arrived near the city gate.

Two bright but ice-cold pillars of light immediately shone on this person's body. This person was dressed in a single robe and was wrapped in a thick windbreaker cloak. Even his head was tightly wrapped, and he couldn't see his appearance clearly. The city guards wanted to take down this suspicious fellow without asking why. Unexpectedly, he stretched out his hand from under the cloak and threw a thick iron token onto the ground. When the light fell on the iron plate, the city was filled with inhalation, and then someone shouted, "Open the door." Then, amidst the noise of the hydraulic machinery, the heavy armored gates retracted and separated, revealing the city gates completely.

The man reached out and grabbed the metal token. He wrapped up the cloak and walked into the city.

When he disappeared from the streets of the city, a fellow who was obviously a recruit asked his colleague, "What brand is that?"

"That's the military token of the Berserk Shadow Army." His companion rolled his eyes and said, "You actually don't know?" How could the Imperial Legion use such steel tokens now? They all used electronic seals. Currently, only the Berserk Shadow Army was using the bronze to forge the military token. The one who could show the military token was at least a battalion commander in the Berserk Shadow Army. "As for a battalion commander of the Berserk Shadow Army, he was thrown into another legion, and that was the position of deputy regiment or even commander. Do you understand?"

"That's a big shot that we can't afford to offend. Besides, the Berserk Shadow Army is a bunch of lunatics. Even if he's just a Berserk Shadow Army warrior, we have to let him go so that we don't get into trouble."

The recruit was stunned. He rubbed his head and said, "The Berserk Shadow Army is so powerful. If I had known that they would have signed up at that time."

His companion glanced at him with an idiotic gaze. "Do you think the Berserk Shadow Army can enter if they want to? Not to mention Origin Energy, you are not qualified for military service alone."

"So strict?"

"Nonsense. Otherwise, how could he be our trump card master in Demonic Shadow Empire?"

The recruit looked in the direction where the mysterious man had disappeared, his eyes filled with envy. The mysterious man, who was envied by the recruits, crossed the streets after entering the city and finally stopped in front of a bar where the voice of a musician could still be heard. Then he went into the bar and found a quiet corner to sit in.

An enchanting Bar woman walked over and blinked her eyes, "What do you want to drink? Or do you want to have some fun?"

The man silently slapped a green crystal on the table, and a deep voice came from the shadow of his hat, "Get the best wine you have here, and then I'll wrap the three tables around me."

The woman's eyes lit up.

A piece of green crystal, and it was a pretty good-looking green crystal. Not to mention booking three or four tables, even booking tonight's venue was more than enough. She quickly picked up the green crystal, afraid that this person would go back on his word. She smiled and said, "Apart from wine, don't you want anything else?"

His teasing intent was overflowing with words.

He spat out a cold word from his hat, "Scram."

The woman wanted to explode, but in the end, for the sake of the green crystal, she patted her butt and left. A moment later, he reluctantly brought a bottle of wine and an empty glass.

After the woman left, he silently opened the bottle and drank alone. When drinking alone, it was especially easy to recall the past. He didn't want to come in for a drink, but the song on the jukebox in the bar reminded him of it and fermented it with alcohol. He remembered some of the memories he had thought he had forgotten, and it was as if he had returned to that ancient era. When he was still a child, there was such a yellowish light that a woman would harrumph this song gently by his side.

At that time, he was undoubtedly happy and happy. Even though he already had too many things that he didn't dare to imagine in his childhood, he no longer had that kind of satisfaction and joy. The mind is like a gigantic black hole, no matter how much it fills in, it is still unable to be satisfied.

He drank a mouthful of wine, which tasted bitter and unlike any good wine. However, he didn't care and allowed himself to continue immersing himself in his memories. As a result, a faint sadness gradually spread in that corner of his body.

Whether it was the light or the alcohol, his line of sight became blurry. In the hazy scene, it was as if she saw the woman walking towards him. She opened her arms as if welcoming his return. His heart trembled slightly. Perhaps after so many years, the thing he wanted the most was to return to that place.

But

The wine glass suddenly shattered in his hand, and his hand was actually trembling.

"I can't go back. Nothing" His hat whispered, "Nothing can go back."

At this time, a man roared in the bar, "There's obviously a table there, why don't we go over there?"

The one who stopped the man was the woman who served him the wine just now. She said helplessly, "Those three tables have been packed. You guys go somewhere else."

The drunken man pushed the woman away and staggered over. He slapped the table with his palm and said, "How much is he going to pay (three times the price!"

The woman expressionlessly said, "He gave me a green crystal."

The drunken Baltic's expression changed. He stammered, "A green crystal? Don't joke, this" Suddenly, a green light flashed at the corner of his eyes and a green crystal slid to his palm. The mysterious man who was drinking wine said in a low voice, "Here you go. Scram aside."

The Baltimore's expression suddenly changed. He slapped open the green crystal with one hand and shouted, "Do you think money is great? Do you know who I am? You pretending to be a ghost." Then he reached out and pulled off the man's hat, and under the light, a head of long silver hair flowed down like moonlight. Beneath his silver hair was a young and handsome face, as well as flushed eyes that made people panic. More importantly, this person was clearly not from the Bar clan.

The bar instantly became silent. Only the music from the jukebox was still ringing. The initiator was stunned for a moment before he said, "Humans? Why are there humans here? These lowly slaves " Before he could finish his sentence, his body suddenly aged and turned into a dried corpse.

The man who was still sitting slowly pulled his hat back on and whispered, "It's not a good thing to have too many people. There's not even a place to drink quietly."

It was unknown who was the first to discover that the corpse of the dead man was quietly filled with black smoke. It quickly spread out like a shadow, climbing onto each individual's body, and then desperately digging into their pores. A few moments later, the man walked out with his hat and disappeared into the alley beside him.

A few minutes later, a group of soldiers arrived. When they entered the bar, they saw the dried corpses all over the ground and the green crystals neatly piled up on the table. Soldiers, look at me, look at you, I'm a little confused about what this means. It wasn't until their commander said something in a deep voice that the soldiers came to an understanding.

"That's life money."

It was also night.

The Forgotten Realm castle was much quieter. Alan was sitting in the bathtub, his eyes closed as he felt the moving feeling of warm water flowing past him. He knew very well that tonight was destined to be a sleepless night. The information Alice gave him was simply too shocking-creator, artificial life, the origins of the Balts, and Spenak. He needed time to digest this information. After mentioning Sbernak briefly in the restaurant, Alice ended the dinner with the excuse that she was tired.

In fact, how could a person like her be tired? Alan knew that she was just sad. It seemed that Alice needed time to sort out her emotions before she could tell him everything. He wasn't in a hurry, not to mention that it was useless even if he was in a hurry.

He opened his eyes and saw Laura drill in and snuggle up to him.

Laura rested on his chest and asked, "What are you thinking?"

"A lot of things?"

"Let me guess. About Alice?"

Ellen laughed and said, "Can this be called guessing? As long as you're not stupid, you'll get it."

Laura feigned anger and said, "You're actually thinking of a woman!"

He reached out and patted Laura's buttocks, "Stop it, I'm thinking of something serious. Say it out loud and scare you to death. Alice is Spenak's mother."

"Who?" Laura suddenly stood up and exposed her beautiful curves to the air. "The Demon King? The Paragon of Demonic Shadow Empire?"

"Sit down." Alan waved his hand.

Laura snorted, "Am I not good-looking like this?" He said that, but he still sat down. However, he sat on Allen's legs and gently twisted his body with ill intentions. Alan snorted, "I told you to sit down, but not on my lap."

"Are you unwilling?"

"Bullshit!" Alan laughed, "Any man who says he doesn't want to do it must be physically abnormal."

"As for me, it's quite normal."

The temperature in the bathroom quickly rose. First, Laura's laughter gradually turned into moans. Finally, Laura was so tired that she slept by the bathtub. Only then did she announce the end of the battle. When Alan put her on the bed, she had already fallen asleep. After tucking her under the blanket, Alan's heart suddenly stirred and he walked to the window. Looking out of the window, he could see Alice sitting on the floor on the tallest steeple of the castle.

Face north.
