Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 1508: First General

'"Grand Duke, I understand what you mean, but trapping Devlin is not an easy task. We need to be on guard against other imperial generals. If that's the case..." Shang Yun was also an outstanding general, so he was naturally so big that he could deduce. Once that happened, it would affect the entire battlefield and even turn into a war between the two armies. The outcome of the battle was likely to be defeated because of Devlin's escape.

If Shang Yun could imagine it, how could Gulliver not have imagined it? The duke said calmly, "That's right, if it was a normal method, it would turn into a war between the two armies. It would be too far away from my original intention." So we have to make some arrangements to lure Devlin out alone and trap and wear away her strength by my immovable iron wall. Take this opportunity to launch a general offensive against the Balts. There is no need to annihilate the enemy. Our goal is still to destroy their weather weapons and destroy their starships as much as possible. If we can do that, our current situation will change. "

After listening to the Grand Duke's words, the Marquis and Counts revealed expressions of relief. Only Shang Yun said, "The plan is good, but Archduke, how do we lure Devlin out alone?"

"This requires another operation to assist, but this is an operation that will never return!" Gulliver said solemnly.

The wind howled, choking like the undead.

The wind blew and the clouds moved. However, no matter how the thick purple clouds enveloped the planet rolled, they were unable to see what was happening behind the clouds. A blood-red ribbon of light came from the other side of the sky, passing through the thick clouds and landing on the other side of the horizon. The ribbon of light was bright red like a bloody wound. On the land where it landed, it was the base of the Barbarians.

The earth of the planet was desolate and lonely. Vegetation is not rich, some tenacious moss cloth blocks grow in the cracks of the earth, or behind a large rock. Very few trees could be seen, but a few slender but tall shadows could still be seen staring at them from the wilderness. It was the plant of the planet, a tall tree. Without branches and leaves, it was naked, like a tree with its branches and leaves cut off.

This kind of tree looked very lonely.

On the other side of the trees and wilderness, there was a temporary base on the ground built by the Barbarians, centered around the ships of the Great General of the Empire. The base did not have an outer wall. The combat airships were the outer walls. They could fly to meet the enemy when needed.

There was a Phantasm Tower on both sides of the base. This type of installation, which would only appear in Demoic Ring City, was now moved here. The orange scanning waves from the Phantasm Tower enveloped the entire base, and the radiation spread to the wilderness within three to five kilometers of the base. It was as if the eyes of a demon king were staring at this land all the time, making any invasion or infiltration a joke.

There was a temporary cleared space in the base where a woman was standing. Her long, bright red hair danced wildly in the wind. She had the dark skin of a Baltic, but her facial features were exquisite and beautiful. She had a pair of golden pupils that contrasted with her dim complexion. It was as if what she saw in her eyes was always an incomparably brilliant world.

She looked so slender and had a pair of curvaceous long legs, but she put this slender body, which seemed to break with just a little strength, into a ferocious and rough armor. Whether it was the straight and sharp thrusts, the beast carvings on his chest and knees, or the sharp and tough iron gloves at the corners. These things made this woman look like a red rose blooming in steel.

She held a black heavy iron saber in her hand. Blood was flowing down from the blade of the saber. Behind her, there were four or five knives of varying lengths stabbed at her waist. She was like a moving knife stand, those knives were like thorns of roses, causing anyone who approached her to be thorned to the point of being covered in bruises.

Just like the three men in front of her, there wasn't a single piece of good meat on her body. His aura was weak and he almost wanted to die.

The woman who had been watching from afar finally retracted her gaze and landed on the three men, saying indifferently, "Trash." He put away his knife and waved his hand, since someone had sent them to a medical class for treatment. As a result, there was only that woman left in the open space. She was clearly as beautiful and delicate as a flower, but at the same time, she was as sharp as a knife. It was as if she would be cut by the flowing air if she stayed by her side.

She was Devlin, Demonic Shadow Empire's number one general, and was acknowledged to be Saber Demon's number one killer below Spenak. She used a knife. She had several knives, all of which were famous artifacts. But the sharpest saber was her own.

While Devlin was wiping the Black Devil with a clean handkerchief, an Empire general came five meters in front of her and knelt down on one knee. "Sir, we just received news. There is a reinforcements army rushing over. They will arrive by tomorrow morning at the latest."

"Reinforcements?" "I don't need that kind of thing," Devlin said, wiping her knife with rapt attention.

The general glanced at her and lowered his head. "That was sent by His Majesty. Furthermore, it is not our army."

"Oh? That's?"

Just as the general was about to answer, another general rushed over and said, "Your Excellency, the reinforcements commander requests a communication."

Devlin narrowed her eyes and said, "Whichever one of you answers, don't bother me."

The general said with a grim expression, "Your Excellency, I'm afraid you'll have to listen."

"Yes, Your Excellency." The previous general added, "The one who came to support us this time is not our own army, but His Highness the Dark King. His Majesty appointed him to rush over to support us, so look..."

"Your Majesty, do you think I can't take Gulliver?" Devlin pursed her lips. Everyone who knew her knew that when she revealed this expression, killing intent had already surged in her heart. The two generals, look at me, look at you, no one dares to say another word. Just as they were about to face the scolding of the prince, Devlin stood up and said, "Alright, let's hear what the prince wants to say."

They returned to the command hall of a ship.

Devlin sat upright on her big seat with a screen open in front of her. Another man appeared on the screen. Silver-haired and red-eyed, he was dressed in the traditional noble costume of Demonic Shadow Empire. His long red-striped robe with a high collar and black stripes showed nobility on his body. Devlin took a deep breath. She had no choice but to admit that this young prince did indeed have some good looks.

"Your Highness?" Devlin was the first to say, "May I know what His Highness has to say?"

Even Ramo had to be respectful when he saw Ellen. In Demonic Shadow Empire, Devlin was probably the only one who dared to stab the man on the screen like this. This made the other imperial generals pinch their sweat. Although Devlin's killing power was extraordinary, she was still a man who had the qualifications to meet the two supreme beings. Even though she had yet to become a supreme being, no one doubted that Alan had the potential to become a supreme being. Now, Devlin's attitude could be said to be extremely arrogant. The generals were afraid that this would cause the man on the screen to be displeased.

Alan remained expressionless. '"General Devlin, I am here to inform you. His Majesty has appointed me to take charge of all operations against Gulliver and his army, so I hope that you can keep an eye on them before I arrive. There is no need to launch any offensive actions."

"Oh? Then I'm surprised. If I kill Gulliver before you arrive, wouldn't that be a good thing?" A cold smile appeared on Devlin's face. "Or is His Highness thinking of old love and not wanting to touch people from Adahua Planet?"

Naturally, the empire had done some research on Alan. Devlin was the number one general, so it wasn't surprising that she knew about Alan's past.

However, her question was too sharp. If the previous generals were just sweating, then their hearts were already in their throats.

'"I don't need to tell you what I want to do. You just need to know that you have to obey my orders. If you have any questions, you can ask His Majesty directly," said Alan calmly.

She then cut off the communication and didn't give Devlin any chance to refuse.

Devlin sat upright, but her hands suddenly closed, distorting the armrest of the big seat.

In the blink of an eye, it was already dusk.

When Devlin closed her eyes and fell asleep, a general came to her side and knelt down. "Sir, Ledo is back. He has captured a few people from Adahua Planet, including Earl Shawn. I think you need to see them."

"Shang Yun?" Devlin opened her eyes. "Isn't that Gulliver's right-hand man? What's going on?"

"According to Ledo, Shang Yun sneaked past his defensive area with a few men. He found them and launched an attack. It took a lot of effort to catch them, and at the same time, there were signs of movement from Adahua Planet. Ledo thought that Shang Yun and his men must have something to do with the movement of troops from Adahua Planet, so he came to see you."

Devlin nodded. "Where is he?"

"Please follow me."

Devlin saw Shang Yun in a room. The earl, who looked like a scholar more than a soldier, was tied to a pillar and his body was covered with electroacupuncture. It was a torture tool that could interfere with the movement of Origin Energy. It looked like Shang Yun had suffered a lot. His aura was chaotic and his blood was stained. Behind him, there were a few other people lying on the ground. An Empire general was whipping them with his energy whip. Seeing Devlin come in, the general laughed dryly, "My lord, they have a secret operation, but they are so tight-lipped that they don't want to say it out loud."

"

Devlin walked over to Shang Yun and raised his chin with a finger and smiled, "They didn't say it because they thought we didn't dare to kill people. This is ridiculous. I don't care what you do. Sooner or later, you will all die on this planet. It's just a matter of time."

"

She put down Shang Yun and walked to a soldier from Adahua Planet, turning him over with her feet. The iron boots stepped on the soldier's face, and Devlin gradually pushed the iron boots into the soldier's face. The people in the room could clearly hear the sound of bones breaking, as well as the screams of the soldiers. It took Devlin ten seconds to step on the soldier's head. In these ten seconds, the soldier had passed through the most painful period of his life.

Then Devlin said, "Tell me your plan and you can live. Otherwise, die."
