Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 1425: Zerka Temple (1)

Nelm, who sat on the captain's seat, had a bare head like his fellow aliens, a hairless alien whose metallic skin glowed with a matte sheen that made Nelm look cold and indifferent.

The Nelm man wore only a loose cardigan and the muscles on his upper body were clearly visible. His right hand snapped off from his wrist and was hooked with an iron hook. The iron hook was hooking up a thin and greasy piece of barbecue meat, throwing it into his mouth to chew, and his mouth was filled with oil in an instant. As he chewed on the barbecue, the captain said, "Hasn't Evernight arrived yet?"

'"I'm sorry, Captain Yi Lu. There's something wrong with our positioner. It's still a bit far from Evernight. But at our speed, we can reach the target planet in about five hours." A blue-skinned alien woman said. She had long blonde hair and eyes, was wearing a sexy leather coat, had a long knife on her waist, two daggers stabbed at her waist, and a beam pistol on each of her thighs. She looked very unpleasant.

"Dear Hannah, you don't have to be so tight. If you've been with us for a long time, you'll know that you don't have to be so polite to Captain Iru. After all, our captain is a rough guy." An octopus man walked up to him. He looked like a strong middle-aged man, but his beard was actually a bunch of octopus tentacles. He had no arms, only feet full of suckers. Right now, a foot was hooked on Hannah's shoulder and mucus was dripping from the suction cup.

Hannah narrowed her eyes and said, "Gold card, if you don't take your stupid hand off me, I don't mind using it as an octopus sashimi."

The control room immediately burst into laughter. The skin of the alien called Golden Card turned from red to black. He roared angrily, "What the hell are you laughing at!" And said to the woman, "How many times do you need me to tell you that we're not octopuses, but that our genes have nothing to do with that creature!"

"Alright, you two." Captain Elu waved his hand and said, "We didn't come all the way to this ancient starfield to hear you quarrel. Listen up, you bastards." Our employer is a big shot this time. The price he offered is very attractive. After completing this mission, we can probably rest for two to three years. "That's why all of you must wake up and kill our target on planet Evernight."

Hannah stretched out her hand and pointed at the void, circles of light appearing on her fingertips. A moment later, a holographic projection appeared in the air. From the projection, it was not difficult to tell that this was a young girl with a good appearance and noble temperament. Most importantly, this was Lucy's image.

"That's right. That's our goal. Remember that. Once you see her, kill her in every way you can. Our employer has offered an astronomical price for this little girl. However, for a royal daughter, this price can be considered right for her status."

Kinka whistled, "Kill the Empress of Adahua Planet, Captain. Then won't we be unable to enter Garter in the future? We'll give you a wanted list, right?"

"What, are you scared?" Captain Yi Lu had a disdainful expression on his face.

Gold card spat out a mouthful of ink from his mouth: "scared shit, I want to say, this is exciting!"

Hannah looked at the mouthful of ink on the floor and said, "You're not an octopus?"

As a result, the image of the iron man that the golden card managed with great difficulty was instantly destroyed.

"Captain, I heard that you people from Nelm are invading a planet called Earth. Why didn't you join the battle?"

"This daddy is not from the army. What does it matter to me which planet our emperor likes to invade?"

"It can't be that your battle prowess is disliked by Taidai, right?"

"Bullshit! Believe it or not, I'll cut off your octopus beard, you bastard!"

The armed starship traveled far away, and its navigation system indicated that it would arrive at Evernight in five hours.

Eternal Night Star.

Four elegant starships left the base. Countless Night Demons screamed at the foot of the mountain, but they could only watch as the starships opened their energy shields and left.

Three hours later, after experiencing the trials of thunderstorms, hail, and earth fire, the starship finally arrived at the former imperial city of Suraka, where the resplendent civilization of Evernight had originated.

In the wilderness about three kilometers away from Sulaka, the starship landed. Apart from a few soldiers left behind, everyone else put on their protective suits and left the starship.

Adahua Planet's suit is light but tough, making it hard to penetrate even with a high-energy beam rifle. Moreover, the protective suit also had an energy shield. In addition to the user's own Origin Energy barrier, it was relatively safe to move on the ground filled with poisonous gas and radioactive materials.

Liquid helmets do not obstruct sight and provide a variety of visual modes for exploration and movement. After raising her helmet, Lucy chose to hide. It was as if she wasn't wearing a helmet, so she didn't look too heavy.

She got off the starship with Angeloni and Mainne by her side. There was another person beside her. Morodo, the scholar who was still at the base, heard that they were going to explore the Temple of Zerka. He immediately agreed to Mainne's invitation and followed her.

Moroto did not look as thin as other scholars. He was very strong. If it weren't for Adahua Planet's pentapetalon on her chest, Lucy would have thought he was a warrior.

Of course, Morodo's Origin Energy was negligible. On a dangerous planet like Evernight Star, his level ten Origin Energy was difficult to protect himself.

The accompanying guards had dispersed in all directions, using defensive formations to protect the important people in the middle. Because the geomagnetism of Planet Time was already in chaos, especially in the Imperial City, where aircraft were unable to enter, they could only walk on foot to the Temple of Zekka.

Mo Luoduo had already been here once, so he was quite familiar with the surroundings. After he pointed out the direction, the team began to advance. Morodor was puzzled by the way a royal son of Lucy had come to Eternal Night to seek punishment for not staying in the pleasant Golden City. It was even more surprising to hear that Lucy had come for clues about the Son of Twilight.

At first he was worried that Lucy, a princess, would find it hard to walk to Sulaka, but he couldn't help but admire the girl for walking two kilometers without changing her expression. Even he was beginning to catch his breath, and the prince and the princess were notoriously weak these days. It was already amazing that Lucy didn't change her expression.

Walking another kilometer, the wasteland was no longer flat, and hills began to rise and fall. The sandstorm was getting heavier and heavier, and the visibility was decreasing. If it weren't for Mo Luoduo, who was a knowledgeable old horse, just grasping the information of the Imperial City would have taken a bit more effort to arrive smoothly.

As he walked, Moroto suddenly stopped and ran out with a cheerful howl. Mainne was afraid that he would lose, so he waved his hand to let the two soldiers follow him. Moroto ran to the foot of a mountain and stopped. He continuously slapped a huge rock on the ground with his hand. But when he swept away the dirt, Lucy could see what kind of boulder it was. It was a stone head, as if it had fallen from a sculpture.

"This is Sharif, the symbol of the imperial city guards. We are already near the city walls of Sulaka!" Morodo said excitedly.
