Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 1467: Six Daos of the Nether River

The sound of raindrops falling to the ground was like a jade pearl falling onto a plate, cracking into pieces. Occasionally, a bolt of lightning flashed across the sky, turning the world into black and white.

The Milky Way was standing in white light.

Catherine crouched in the darkness with her gun.

Across the street, the two women looked at each other from afar.

"This is the first time I've seen a woman as powerful as a human." Galaxy's voice was deep and sexy. She held the sniper rifle in one hand and beckoned to Catherine with the other, "Should I come over or I'll kill you?"

"Not interested."

"What a pity." The corners of Galaxy's mouth curled into a proud smile. "Forget it, I'm only interested in your man, Marshal Greed. Unfortunately, she didn't participate in this war. Otherwise, I would have brought her back."

"Have a good time."

A bolt of lightning descended, illuminating the entire galaxy. By the time Catherine saw her again, the Milky Way had already reached her head. The muzzle of the sniper rifle was facing downwards, and a ball of light was about to flow out from within.

Katherine's eyes became incomparably deep.

The spear paused.

The light around the already dim scenery dimmed even more.

Galaxy narrowed his eyes slightly and felt that something was amiss, but he still shot down. A white light flashed in the heavy rain. It was unknown whether it was lightning or the beam of light from the muzzle of the Milky Way gun.

Before time could flow, Catherine's head was pierced through by the white light.

The smile on Galaxy's face widened.

"Exactly, what's so ridiculous?" Catherine's cold voice came from behind. The Milky Way was unable to react, and her vest was already in pain.

Lightning flickered as Catherine appeared behind the Milky Way and shot her in the back.

But that's all.

This time, Twilight was unable to pierce through the galaxy like Fred did last time. The tip of the spear only pierced through the uniforms of the galaxy and touched her inner armor. All the lines on the Milky Way uniform lit up, forming a gentle yet irresistible force that expanded outwards. Even though Catherine was reluctant to do so, she was bounced out by this force. After several consecutive somersaults, she landed on a metal pier that was slanted on the ground and landed on the ground in a half-kneeling posture.

After releasing that power, the uniforms of the Milky Way quickly dissipated into ashes. When she landed on the ground, there was only a metal inner armor that was tightly attached to her body, but it also outlined her sexy figure.

Frowning, Galaxy said coldly, "Strange ability."

That was the first of the six Daos of the Nether River, Shadow Return. When the ability was activated, it would leave behind a shadow of the Nether River behind the opponent. When he was attacked, he would swap with the Nether River's Shadow. The Shadow would receive the attack, and he would appear behind his opponent to launch a surprise attack.

Fred was severely injured by this ability. Unfortunately, the uniform on Galaxy had a powerful defensive ability that rendered Catherine's attack useless.

Galaxy did not know the specific characteristics of Shadow Return, but it roughly deduced a contour. "The same ability can no longer work. If you have other abilities, take it out quickly. Otherwise, you probably won't have a chance."

Catherine raised her hand and pointed at the Milky Way. "You're really slow. You've already activated your second ability."

"What?"

A bolt of lightning descended from behind the Milky Way, illuminating her figure on the ground. At the same time, the Milky Way could clearly see that her shadow had an extra head on its shoulder. It looked like a woman!

Then a song filled with grief rang in her ears.

Galaxy turned around and saw that the ruins of the streets behind him had turned into a sea of rage. Looking at himself again, he was actually floating on the sea with a remnant of wood in his arms. Then he remembered that he had gone out to sea on a boat and encountered a storm at sea. Now that the ship had sunk, she was the only one left on the ship. She had been floating on the sea for a few days, and even her lips were cracked from the sun when the water dripped in.

At this time, she saw an island from which sad songs could be heard. She swam desperately towards the island, hoping to see a figure, even one. However, it seemed that she could not swim to that island, and a deep despair enveloped her heart.

The Milky Way struggled under the illusion that it was the third of the six paths of the Nether River, the Female Demon.

At this moment, there was a shadow behind the Milky Way. This shadow clearly had the outline of a woman. The shadow hugged the Milky Way tightly, its head resting on her shoulder, singing softly in her ear. Unfortunately, only the Milky Way could hear the song. The demonic woman's voice would disturb the nerves of the Milky Way. Even if the Milky Way was a Kidd with a transformation rate of more than 80%, her brain remained the same. The demonic woman's voice still worked on her.

The Milky Way stood motionless like a statue, not even Catherine noticing it standing in front of her. Catherine expressionlessly lifted the gun. The gun's body was filled with Origin Energy. The gun turned into a streak of black lightning and pierced through the heart of Galaxy's chest. However, judging from the resistance coming from the gun, Catherine did not feel the softness that hit her heart. Instead, it collided with the rigid parts!

She was about to pull back her gun when it was already held by one hand.

Galactic Hands.

Catherine was only as tall as Galaxy's chest. She raised her head and saw Galaxy's cold gaze. "Thank you so much for this shot. Otherwise, I don't know how long I'll sleep."

She raised her hand and put the muzzle of the sniper rifle on Catherine's left chest. "But unfortunately, I don't have such a fragile organ as a biological heart anymore. Otherwise, the battle would be over, right?"

The banshee was still shouting in her ear. Galaxy coldly snorted, "Shut up." Seven or eight high-energy light blades shot out from the gap in her inner armor, piercing through the banshee's shadow.

Catherine looked at her and said, "If I were you, I wouldn't do that."

"What?"

The next second, Galaxy heard a heart-wrenching scream. The cry seemed to have pierced through her soul, and it was like millions of steel needles swirling back and forth in her veins, if she still had any.

All in all, the sudden scream caused the Milky Way's eyes and nose to bleed, its body to lose its balance, and the muzzle of the gun slid away from Catherine's chest. In an instant, Catherine pulled out her spear and used an ingenious method to knock down the Milky Way. The tip of the spear reversed and stabbed at the woman's head.

No matter how the Milky Way was modified, as long as she was still a creature, her brain was a fatal weakness.

Unfortunately, the Milky Way was still a platinum royal clan, and her reaction was incomparable. She used a sniper rifle to sweep away the Twilight Rifle, then raised her leg to prop up Catherine's lower abdomen, sending her flying. Only then did she wipe the blood off her face and stand up.

"I'm not playing anymore!" Galaxy shouted angrily, his head of blonde hair fluttering Half of his hair was raised, and he saw that the face covered by his hair was completely mechanical. Stripes appeared around the Milky Way's eyes, forming the shape of a cross-shaped star. She raised her sniper rifle, and the lines on the rifle continued to shine.

Smoke suddenly exploded from the ruins of the building that Catherine had crashed into, seriously blurring the vision of the Milky Way. As for Catherine herself, she restrained all her energy and heat. No matter how keen her perception was, she was unable to know where she was.

Galaxy smiled proudly and pulled the trigger. The sniper rifle no longer shot out a beam of light, but a dazzling Origin Energy bullet. The bullet drew a white rainbow in the air. The white rainbow glowed like a milky way.

The bullet disappeared into the thick smoke.

Catherine's pupils shrank as she crouched behind a wall. Her left shoulder was pierced by a brilliant Origin Energy bullet, almost breaking her entire left arm! "How is that possible?" She whispered.

This was indeed impossible. Her current position was at least a hundred meters away from the Milky Way's trajectory. Moreover, the Milky Way's attack was not like the Curved Light Sniper Rifle she had used before. The Origin Energy Bullet circled around the target and continued to attack. The bullet came from outside the building and did not change direction. However, Catherine did not know how the Milky Way allowed the bullet to ignore a hundred-meter error and hit her.

Of course, she didn't expect the Milky Way to explain. Looking at the blood spraying out of her shoulder wound, Catherine quickly made a simple treatment. Then, she rushed out of the building and flew in the opposite direction of the Milky Way.

She had already used Shadow Return and the banshee to seal off Ferrid's self-detonating dark prison. In the end, she only had the fourth Leviathan left. As for the remaining two, they hadn't reached the final stage yet.

Judging from Galaxy's battle prowess, Leviathan probably wouldn't be able to take down this woman. Catherine knew nothing about the power of the Milky Way. In comparison, although she was unwilling, Catherine had no choice but to admit that she had no chance of winning.

Since there was no chance of winning, there was no need to persevere. She made a quick decision and put it into action.

The Milky Way Fruit chased after her as she had expected.

This was not surprising.

Catherine raised her spear and activated her Shadow Return ability again. Behind him, the Milky Way lifted its spear, and a white rainbow tore through the rain and pierced through Catherine's pink back.

However, Galaxy's face did not show any joy.

In the rain, Catherine's figure disappeared like a bubble, and she pounced from a building five hundred meters away.

Shadow Return could not only be used on his opponent. Setting the Nether River Shadow on a dead object was a good way to escape from his opponent when needed. However, the Milky Way was not an ordinary expert. Her eyes turned cold as she ran. The building behind Catherine exploded, and the Milky Way flew out from the flying fragments. It was less than a hundred meters away from Catherine.

Catherine frowned slightly. The Galaxy's posture just now did not seem to have accelerated. Instead, it seemed to have been forcefully pulled over by an invisible force field. That was probably another ability of the Galaxy.

"Catherine!"

Suddenly, a figure jumped out from behind a tumbling war chariot in front of her. Catherine narrowed her eyes and shouted, "General Linz, leave this place immediately!"

It was Lin Si who appeared behind the chariot.

The young general looked at the Milky Way and then at Catherine's blood-stained left hand. He smiled. Catherine was stunned. In this rainstorm, Lin Si's smile actually smelled like sunlight.

He shouted, "I finally know what I can do for you!"

With that, Lin Si pulled out his saber from his waist and a mighty figure faintly appeared behind him. The young general, who was full of vigor, greeted Catherine.

In the blink of an eye, the two of them passed by in the wrong direction.

Catherine stretched out her hand to catch it, but all she caught was rain.
