Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 1354: Recreate A Legend

After the stern of the Star Destroyer exploded, another dark purple streak of fireflies shot out from the front of the ship's bow. Then, explosions began to appear in the middle of the Star Destroyer. The twisted metal fragments scattered with flames. Smoke rose from the hull and countless black dots fell into the air. Apart from the hull fragments, there were also some Nelm people who were thrown out of the hull. The Star Destroyer was like a heavily wounded giant beast, emitting a dull roar as it shook towards the east. The ship pulled out a thick, pitch-black pillar of smoke in the sky, marking the trajectory of the Star Destroyer.

The battlefield suddenly became strangely quiet. Whether it was the enemy or us, both of them stopped at this moment and watched as the swaying ship landed on the other side of the horizon.

Within the Star Destroyer, explosions could still be heard from the crew area that had already turned into a sea of flames. The Emperor of Nelm was standing in the flames. Cajasso's eyes were somewhat blank. In front of him was a straight passage that pierced through the entire hull of the ship. This passageway was his masterpiece. The moment Horn drew his saber, he released his killing move, Negative Energy Burst. The torrent of dark purple fireflies really blew Horn straight, but the result was somewhat different from Cajasso's expectations.

With Horn's battle prowess, he could withstand this attack. However, he did not. After Qiu Yan had completely unsheathed his dazzling saber light that was like the rising sun and swept past him, the crew behind him, and even the rear engine components. Horn simply allowed himself to be blown away by the flood tide. Of course, he wasn't weak. Instead, he used Cajasso's Origin Energy Flood to escape from the Star Destroyer.

Even though Horn was struck by a negative energy explosion, he still had to explode with seven meat and eight vegetables, and his injuries weren't light. However, he was the first human to provoke Cajasso, yet he was still able to escape unscathed. The Demon Lord suddenly smiled. He discovered that he was actually not the slightest bit angry. Furthermore, he felt some admiration for the human for the first time in the world. Then, his lower abdomen went cold. He reached out his hand and pressed it down. The palm of his hand was already sticky.

It was the wound that had been sliced open by Horn's knife, and it was only at this moment that the wound began to bleed.

Such an opponent!

Seeing the Star Destroyer finally disappear into the sky, the Federation soldier who discovered the abnormality of the ship couldn't help but cheer. Then, the cheers echoed throughout the entire battlefield. The soldiers did not know what had happened on the Star Destroyer, but the fact that the enemy's main ship had crashed was undeniable. This was undoubtedly a great boost to the morale of the Federation. Officers at all levels on the battlefield also seized this hard-won opportunity and ordered the soldiers to attack loudly.

The morale of humans rose like a rainbow, while the morale of the people of Nelm plummeted to the bottom. After losing two defensive lines in an instant, the alien army began to retreat. The battle over the floating island's remains ended with a victory for the humans.

In a small town more than a hundred kilometers away from the battlefield, including Capulo, the room full of generals or old party leaders had long since left the smoky room and stood on the empty ground. Although there was only a thick black cloud pillar left in the sky, it attracted their attention. Capulo was the first to lower his head and exhale, "Horn did it."

"What?"

"This "

Capulo and Horn were of the same level. When the stern of the Star Destroyer was slashed by a golden saber light, the aura from the saber light was enough for Capulo to determine who it was. He stroked his chin, which had not been trimmed recently and looked a little sloppy, and said, "It's really you, Horn. Forty years ago, you created a legend. Forty years later, you created another one. Beskard, Beskard!"

On a rocky mountain far from the battlefield, there was a Stone Lizard looking for food. For the Stone Lizard, the internal strife on the planet had little impact on its life. Whether it was the Federation presiding or the invasion of Nelm. As long as it was still alive, it needed to find food to survive. It already had a target, which was a stone scorpion that lived in the mountains. The stone scorpion's exterior was yellow-brown. This layer of natural protection allowed it to escape the hunters.

But today, the Rock Lizard discovered it. Perhaps this stone scorpion's life shouldn't be extinguished. Before the Rock Lizard could move, a vast aura suddenly descended from the sky. Then, a dark purple firefly flashed past, splitting the entire sky in two. Something fell from the purple light. At first, it was just a black dot. In the blink of an eye, the Rock Lizard clearly saw a figure fall near the stone scorpion, startling its prey away.

The Rock Lizard's eyes shone with a human figure. Then, it turned around and left this place. When its prey escaped, it had to hunt again.

Another half an hour later, a few flying cars appeared on the mountain. The four flying cars quickly arrived near the human. A burly figure jumped out from one of the flying cars and rushed to the human's side to help him up. He anxiously asked, "Father, how are you?"

The human, who was obviously an old man, opened his eyes and looked somewhat weak. However, he still smiled and said, "I'm afraid that we'll have to lie down for ten days and a half months this time."

The burly man laughed.

These two were naturally Horn and Roddy.

Very quickly, a piece of news spread through the various bases and human settlements on the surface. The Star Destroyer was shot down, and the floating island's wreckage was recovered smoothly. In this beautiful victory, one person was credited with the greatest merit. That was Horn, who broke into the Star Destroyer alone, killed three enemy generals, heavily injured Demon Lord Cardoso, and blew up the engine of the Star Destroyer. For a time, the Beskard family became the most talked about topic.

An automatic door opened and Mobie strode in. Behind him were six or seven secretaries, each holding a smart tablet, and the screen was filled with electronic documents that required the President's signature. Seeing a big-bellied man sitting in the office, Mobie gestured for the secretarial team to leave. The Great Fatty was naturally Alstair. The minister smiled and said, "Looks like you have to find a secretary-general."

"I also want to, but talent is hard to find. Let's make do with it first."

"Then what are your plans after the recapture battle?"

"Of course." Morbit sat down in his chair, his face flashing with an indiscernible weariness, and said, "Now that the Star Destroyer of Nelm has fallen, it is undoubtedly a slap to the face of their emperor, and a salvation to the fall of Babylon." However, this is far from enough. More than half of our surface bases have been lost, and more have been transferred to underground or semi-underground bases. And because of the information leaked out earlier, I had to move a few important base factories, and it's still not settled. "

"So next, we have to continue to play. But we can't fight too fiercely. We have to fight slowly. This is to divert the attention of the people of Nelm so that we can gather strength for the final counter-offensive. At the same time, in order to stall for time, it was time for Adahua Planet's fleet to calculate. Sirius' reinforcements will arrive on the same day. I'll see if I can get Sirius and Adahua Planet's fleet to work together to get rid of the Nelm squadron now in outer space. "

Alstair glanced at him and said, "Isn't the situation so optimistic?"

Mobbit smiled bitterly. Right now, the Gate of Freedom and Light Concealment Society were standing on the same side, but it was unknown whether they would exert any strength or not. Even they were like this, let alone those dictatorial warlords. In the end, Capullo's trauma to us is simply too great. Not only did the golden lion completely leave the Federation Military Department, more than 40% of the officials of the old party had also dug it up for him. At present, just filling the vacancies of these departing officials is a headache for me. "

"Without the Golden Lion, we only have one Sirius left. As for the elite corps, Fendi's Iron Fist Corps had temporarily merged with Hillfa's Black Wings. Merin's Rose Empress and Russen's death spread have their own priorities. If it's not necessary, I don't want to bring them back. Otherwise, what we did on Nether Domain and Heaven Planet will be abandoned. "

"On Earth's side, Sirius and Blackwing alone are far from enough to shock the surface military forces like the Gate of Freedom."

"But from what I see, you clearly have other plans." "Let me guess," said Alstair with a smile, "you called me here to be a lobbyist?"

Mobie nodded.

"Who doesn't know now that Horn picked off the Nelm Star Destroyer alone? I tried my best to overestimate him, but it wasn't until this moment that I realized how shallow I used to be. Horn's combat strength should be on the same level as Capulo's. There will be many operations that require the assistance of the Golden Lion. I need, and even need, an expert who is strong enough to contend against Capulo on the side. Otherwise, no matter what, he would not have the confidence to challenge that old lion. "

"For the sake of humanity, and for the sake of the Federation. Alstair, you must have Horn on our side. I urgently need this kind of top-notch support now. If he agrees, then with Windsor Belo, we can make Capullo afraid. Otherwise, many of the next operations will be difficult to proceed smoothly." Mobius leaned forward.

"It's fine if I take a trip. I wonder what authority you intend to give me."

"Tell Horn what he wants, as long as I can give it to him. Apart from not being able to hand over the Federation, even if he wants me to step down, I can step down immediately after expelling the people of Nelm!"

"Are you serious?" Said Alstair in a daze.

"Do I look like I'm joking?" "Of course, with Horn's knowledge, he definitely wouldn't make such a condition. He should know very well that the position of president is incomparably hot, both before and after the war. Even if I am willing, someone must be willing to take over." Mobius smiled again.

"You're an old fox," Alstair scolded.

"Compared to Capulet, I'm far from being able to do so."

"Alright, then I'll go to Beskard and wait for my news."

Mobbit stood up and said solemnly, "Wait for good news."
