Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 1468: Secret Order

It's raining all the time.

In the headquarters of the Federation Base, a few generals were as anxious as ants on a hot pot.

A middle-aged general shook his head and said, "I'm afraid General Lin Si can't get in touch with him." He didn't continue, but everyone knew what he meant.

A major general beside him said, "With General Catherine here, General Linz may not be in trouble."

"I'm afraid the two of them haven't met."

"That's impossible. General Linz had already obtained the coordinates of General Catherine's location when he left."

The middle-aged general raised his hand and said, "Alright, it's pointless for us to discuss this later. Now we can only wait for news."

As soon as he finished speaking, a tactical staff officer hurriedly ran over and shouted, "General Catherine is back, and General Linz..."

When the generals heard that Catherine was back, they left the headquarters without waiting for the staff officer to finish his sentence. Only the middle-aged general did not leave. He looked at the staff officer and asked, "What happened to General Linz?"

The general's heart sank when the staff officer lowered his head.

At the entrance of the base, several generals stepped on mud and rushed over. Seeing the door open, soldiers crowded around. They parted the crowd and saw Catherine. Catherine carried a gun in one hand and a man on her shoulder.

A general ran over and took the man from her. Then, the faces of the generals quickly darkened. It was Lin Si who was carried back by Catherine, but no matter how she looked at it, there were many wounds on her body, and Lin Si, whose chest had been pierced through, could no longer survive.

Then a soldier exclaimed, "General Catherine."

When the generals saw this, Catherine let go of her spear and fell forward. She was about to fall into the mud, but was caught by the middle-aged general who rushed over from behind. The general shouted, "Where are the people from the medical class?"

Afterwards, Catherine, who had fainted, was quickly sent to the base's medical class for help. When the field doctors took off Catherine's armor and saw the two penetrating wounds, they gasped.

Two wounds, one on his left shoulder and the other on his right lower abdomen. The latter was even more serious. The surgeon immediately shouted, "Bring me the regenerant and prepare for a blood transfusion. Quick!"

Catherine did not know how long she had been unconscious, but after she woke up, her mind was still filled with images. In that scene, she saw Lin Si hug the Milky Way tightly and knock it into a building. In those scenes, she saw Lin Si being pierced through by the numerous light blades bouncing up from the Milky Way. In those scenes, she saw herself turn around and use her final ability, Leviathan!

While the Milky Way was being dragged into the Nether River and swallowed by the Nether Realm Origin Energy Condensation Behemoth Leviathan, Catherine seized Lin Si's corpse and was heavily wounded by the Milky Way's spear while she was far away.

However, no matter what, she still brought Lin Si's corpse back and did not fall into the hands of the enemy. But so what? That man never came back.

"Idiot." Catherine closed her eyes and began to activate the Origin Energy in her body to speed up her recovery.

On the other side of the Federation line, there was a platinum-colored battleship floating high up in the sky. The battleship was 300 meters long and had a very dignified appearance. There was a ring-shaped design at the back of the hull. With those towering masts, the battleship looked like a crown.

This kind of crown-shaped warship was usually only used by royals. Adding on the color of the hull, the identity of the owner of the warship was already on the verge of being revealed.

When Galaxy woke up from the debugging mess, she did not wait for the base liquid in the container to run out. She lifted her foot and kicked the broken wall of the tank and stepped on the debris to walk down the ground from the pouring base liquid. At this moment, her entire body was naked. One could see a row of faint red teeth marks on the surface of her body. The teeth marks covered her arms and chest. It looked like she had been bitten by a giant beast's bloody mouth. Although the Milky Way did not seem to be in serious trouble now, when she returned to the warship, she shocked the people on board. At that time, the Milky Way was covered in blood, one of its arms was bitten off, and the artificial skin on its chest was flipped open, revealing the structure of its biological organs and various electrical circuits mixed together.

Galaxy shouted, "Where is my meteor?"

"Your Highness the Milky Way, the meteor is undergoing repairs."

"There's no need to repair it. Bring it over for me. Also, prepare a new set of armor for me. I want to go out to battle."

"But you just woke up."

"Cut the crap and do as I say!" The Milky Way shouted. Under the excitement of his emotions, the healed skin faintly split open, and some transparent liquid flowed out from it.

She's very angry now.

When she was on the surface, she almost killed Catherine. However, a Federation general who had rushed out halfway had made her calculations futile. Admittedly, that general's combat strength was not worth mentioning. However, that man was exceptionally stubborn. Even though the Milky Way had already pierced through his body, he still hugged him.

Catherine had the opportunity to use another ability on her.

The Milky Way hasn't forgotten what happened back then.

The dark river that suddenly appeared beneath their feet, the many arms that stretched out from the river, they pulled the Milky Way into the water. In the deep water, a terrifying beast was waiting for her. The feeling of falling into the giant beast's fangs, the experience of its body being bitten off, even the platinum royal family's Galaxy felt cold and frigid.

Fear made her hate Catherine even more, and that experience was a disgrace to her. To wash away the shame, one had to wash away Catherine's blood.

As Galaxy continued to fight, a person appeared. Dressed in golden armor, he was like a golden noble. He knelt down on one knee towards the Milky Way and said, "Your Highness has just received a secret order from His Majesty."

"Big brother?" Galaxy frowned, "What did he say?"

"Your Majesty wants our entire army to withdraw from Mo Suo Star immediately."

"What?" Galaxy was stunned. "Brother, what do you mean? Didn't we have an agreement with the people of Nelm? Besides, the situation is favourable to us now. Why should we withdraw from Mo Suo at such a time?"

"I'm afraid only His Majesty knows about this. Your Highness, you should probably start preparing for the evacuation."

Galaxy narrowed his eyes. "If that's the case, wouldn't I have a chance to kill that woman?"

"No!" Galaxy gritted his teeth and said, "Vidro, I now appoint you as the commander of the entire army, responsible for the withdrawal of our troops."

The golden noble named Vidro was stunned. He raised his head and said, "Your Highness, what about you?"

"I'll stay. I still have some personal grudges to settle."

Vidro hesitated and said, "Your Highness, please consider this carefully. This is His Majesty's order."

"Stop talking nonsense and do as I say. I haven't fallen to the point where you have to worry about me!"

Galaxy dropped these words, put on new armor and uniforms, and left the battleship. She returned to the surface on a small starship and landed in a hidden place. She carried a sniper rifle with her and headed for the city alone. She planned to cross the city and directly charge into the Federation base to kill that woman before leaving!
