Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 1522: Provoke

Outside the cave, the sand was still blowing.

When Lucy got out of the cave, she saw that Mainne was supporting a man, not Alan. She hurriedly ran over. Alan raised his head and saw that she was smiling warmly. Then, he closed his eyes and fainted. Lucy was startled, and Mainne comforted her, "It's all right, Your Highness. Ellen's heartbeat is very strong, and although it's a little hurried, it's not life threatening. It's just that he's hurt too badly and has come all the way here, so he's just a little tired now, and the news will get better soon."

As he spoke, he called over two guards, and the few of them gently carried Alan back into the cave. Marquis Mainne even took off his robe and laid it on the ground so that Alan could lie on it. Then he took out the medical kit, took off Alan's coat and protector, and cleaned his wounds. After a while, Mainne wiped the sweat off his forehead and nodded to Lucy, "I've cured him of his wounds. Alan's body is very strong, and some parts of it have begun to heal themselves." He might have a fever later, but this is normal. His Highness can just feed him some water. However, judging from his appearance, he probably can't swallow it by himself. "

Lucy blushed and said, "I have a way."

Mainne was puzzled at first, but after he was relieved, he carefully called away a few male guards, leaving Angeloni by Lucy's side.

Lucy said to her personal bodyguard, "Look at him. I'll get some water to wipe him off."

Angeloni tried asking, "Should I go?"

"No, I'll do it." Lucy insisted that it meant a lot to her.

When Lucy left and Angeloni was alone with Alan, her breathing started to get a little tight. She observed Allen. Among the brothers, she was probably the only one who had come into contact with Allen so close. Allen closed his eyes and slightly knitted his eyebrows. His body was indeed burning. At this moment, he was fighting against the remaining power in Felius's body. He would wake up when the Black Emperor's power was expelled. Angeloni roughly guessed this as she looked at Lucy who was busy in the distance, her heart beating wildly.

Opportunity!

This was simply a heavenly opportunity. There was no chance that he could kill Alan more easily than now. Angeloni could even imagine the details of each step. She only needed to mobilize a bit of Origin Energy and cut Alan's throat with her palm knife. As for what would happen in the future, she didn't care. Most importantly, the Throne of Annihilation had never been as close to him as it was now!

She tried her best to control her breathing so that neither Mainne nor Lucy would notice. Fortunately, Lucy was the only one who had escorted several male guards out of the cave to avoid suspicion of Mainne. Angeloni could even take Lucy hostage after killing Alan.

Everything seemed so perfect.

Opportunity never comes again. Thinking of this, Angeloni no longer hesitated. She clenched her palm into a knife and quietly extended it towards Allen. All of a sudden, Alan opened his mouth and spat out a black gaseous flame that almost hit Angeloni's face. The woman shouted and dodged. Lucy turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"

Angeloni thought Ellen had woken up. She observed him and saw that he still hadn't woken up, but her expression eased a little. He recalled that the flames were the power that Felius had left behind in his body, and it was only forced out by him. She hurriedly said, "Nothing," but because of that, Angeloni missed her chance and Lucy came back with the water.

First, he helped Alan wash his body and then put on his long coat. As for the armor, it was not convenient to wear it now, so he could only throw it aside. Lucy sucked in a mouthful of water, kissed Allen's lips, and poured it through her mouth. After feeding Alan a few mouthfuls, Lucy blushed and put Alan's head on her lap without avoiding suspicion, gently stroking his hot face with her hand.

Looking at this scene, Angeloni could only sigh in her heart, knowing that there was no chance to make a move, so she simply walked far away to prevent Alan from waking up and noticing her existence.

Two hours passed and Alan finally woke up. He frowned at first, then opened his eyes and saw Lucy. Seeing him wake up, Lucy bit her lips with tears in the corner of her eyes and said, "You're not allowed to do this next time."

Ellen reached out to hold her face and smiled, "Well, I promise."

"

Then the two of them kissed each other for a long time.

Lucy hurriedly raised her head when she heard a dry cough. Alan also propped himself up on the ground and sat up. Apart from his weakened body, the remaining power of Felius had been cleaned up. At this moment, Mainne, who was at the door, said, "Your Highness, I just received a message from Marquis Rowan. They have already entered planet Evernight and are heading in our direction."

"Marquis Luo Wen?" Lucy frowned and said, "What is he doing here?"

"I'm not sure." Mainne shrugged and said, "But with the Marquis's starship, we can leave."

Lucy was a little worried. Alan shook her hand and blinked, "Don't worry, I'm here."

Hearing this, she smiled.

Lucy then told Alan about the Slate of Origin and the man she saw in the Temple of Zekka. "Oh," said Alan, "so that's how he met me."

'"Yes, he said that there is a secret of the universe's twilight in the Origin Slate. I think there might be a way to get you out of your fate. After returning to Adahua Planet, we have been studying this stone slab. Please bear with it for a bit longer. I believe that we will be together forever soon."

Alan looked at her and said, "Actually, I've thought about it, and it's not like I can't stop the full awakening."

"You got a plan?" Lucy's eyes lit up.

"I think the moment of full awakening is when I become the only winner of the bloodline. As long as I don't kill the last brother, I should be able to delay my full awakening infinitely."

Lucy shook her head and said, "But that's not the root cause. It looks like we'll have to do both. But where's your last brother?"

Alan shrugged and said, "Who knew the universe was so big?"

"

Angeloni also heard this. She was hiding in the depths of the cave, desperately sealing her aura for fear that it would attract Ellen's attention.

Suddenly, some noise came from outside the cave, as if someone was arguing about something. Suddenly, there was a muffled sound, and the cave shook, causing countless dust to fall. Alan frowned and pulled Lucy out of the cave. He saw four or five guards lying on the ground and Mainne sitting on the ground, one arm bleeding. In front of him was a powerful expert. From the looks of it, he was actually a super expert who had mastered the Void Origin Energy. Behind the expert stood a noble man and an army of about a hundred men. In the distance, several Adahua Planet starships were hovering in mid-air.

Seeing the man, Lucy frowned and said, "Marquis Rowan, what are you doing?"

The noble man was Marquis Luo Wen. He smiled dryly and said, "Didn't His Highness know that? You reported the whereabouts of the Son of Twilight to His Majesty. Didn't you plan to stabilize the Son of Twilight before we capture him? Why did you ask about me instead?"

Alan's whole body trembled when he heard this and he turned to look at Lucy.
