Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 470: Monster

The atmosphere in the bar froze, as if the smell of blood that filled the room had stopped flowing.

The red-bearded man laughed strangely, "I didn't hear wrongly just now, did I? You told us to listen to your orders? I'm very curious, why did you say that? You actually want us to listen to a mutant's orders. If you say it out loud, it will ruin other people's big teeth!"

"That's right, I think this young lady's brain is easier to use. You guys should listen to my commands." Charlie nodded her head.

The red-bearded man spat out two streaks of hot air from his nose, "What other good ideas do you have besides seducing men into bed?"

'"But this move is enough. Perhaps I can kill Lord Allen in bed. Just as he was excited, I cut his throat and saw his blood splashing like a fountain. It made me a little excited." A faint red cloud flew over Charlie's face.

"What a freak!" The red-bearded man cursed in a low voice.

'"It seems that you guys are a little unreasonable to me. Why don't you take this opportunity to let us get to know each other well and decide who is in charge?" Ceglis looked at the two of them.

He looked at the other two and the one-eyed Mado shook his head. "It's the same for anyone. I only care about the reward."

"Don't look at me," the short man laughed dryly. "I only like to see the wonderful expressions on people's faces when they drink my concocted treasures."

"In that case, it seems that there are only the three of us." Ceglis took off his hat and stuck out his lizard-like tongue. "Come on, let's use strength to decide who's the head."

Charlie looked at Red Beard and said, "You can't be working with a mutant."

"Although you're not a good guy, you're right. After we teach this guy a lesson, we'll decide who will be in charge." Red Beard pulled out his two crossed swords and lightly struck them, causing flames of Origin Energy to rise like multicolored rays of light.

"It's settled then." Charlie turned around and the cloak flew out like a dark cloud towards Segliss. At the same time, the snake twisted its waist and floated behind the cloak. A pair of daggers appeared in her palms at an unknown time, pulling out an amazing and complicated screen of light.

Ceglis didn't see any movement from him, and his cloak suddenly exploded, turning into thousands of butterflies that flew away. Charlie drilled out of the fragment and the saber light enveloped Ceglis's entire body. If her opponent allowed her to cut it, Ceglis would be reduced to pieces.

However, just as the two saber attacks were about to unfold, Charlie suddenly noticed something. With a cry of alarm, he slid to the side and turned around. His two blades could hold a sharp black shadow like a blade. It was a blade that rose from her shadow, blocking the blade. Charlie flipped over and landed on the bar at the back. She lowered her body like a female cat, but she did not forget to interfere with her opponent with her body's capital. She stretched her long legs horizontally and had a soul-seizing smile on her face. She looked exceptionally alluring under the swaying lights.

Ceglis stared at her as if he was attracted to her. At this moment when he was slightly distracted, Red Beard roared and charged forward. His two blades whistled and slashed towards Seglis like shovels. Ceglis didn't even look at him and suddenly raised his hand to shake it. Red Beard immediately stopped. The blade was less than a few centimeters away from his opponent.

Behind the burly man, an arm formed by a shadow grabbed Red Beard's foot tightly, preventing him from moving a single inch.

Ceglis turned around and smiled. He clenched his palm into a fist and smashed it into Red Beard's face, causing him to retreat backwards.

As soon as Red Beard retreated, the sound of air breaking rang out. However, it was Charlie who used the dagger as a throwing knife. With a spin on the bar, the two daggers dragged the chilling light toward Ceglis's chest and lower abdomen. There was a faint smile on Charlie's face, and there was even an armor-piercing needle hidden in her two daggers. When she threw it out with a special method, the armor piercing needle would be attached to one of the daggers. Only when it was about to hit the opponent would it disengage like a cluster bomb. If it changed its trajectory, it would often catch the opponent off guard.

Relying on this move, Charlie had already killed several opponents who were originally stronger than her. She believed that this would definitely give Segliss a pleasant surprise.

Ceglis stretched out his hand towards the two daggers as if to catch them. However, when he spread out his palm, a circular shadow suddenly appeared in front of his palm. The dagger and the armor-piercing needle collided into the shadows together, as if they had fallen into another space. They could not pose a threat to Seglis at all. Almost at the same time, they flew out of the shadows behind Charlie. Charlie let out a cry of alarm and flipped down the bar, avoiding these flying props.

These few battles were faster than lightning, but Charlie and Red Beard could tell that Ceglis was very difficult to deal with. The latter smiled faintly and suddenly squatted down, one hand pressing down on the shadow beneath him. The two of them wanted to organize a second wave of attacks, but they found that the figure beneath their feet twisted unnaturally. Then, they left the ground and hugged them from behind like silhouettes of the two of them.

'"Now, I suppose you have no objections, right?" Ceglis said as he stretched out a sharp shadow knife from the shadow and placed it horizontally in front of their necks.

'"Of course, you're the head, you're the boss," she said with a smile.

The red-bearded man snorted, but he didn't dare to object. Only then did Ceglis stand up, and the shadows that suppressed the two of them returned to the ground like flowing water, returning to normal.

"I'm going out to take a look. Clean this up. Don't let anyone find the corpse. This isn't Finlier." Ceglis put his hat back on and walked to the bar door. "Let's work together. Kill the target and I'll give you my share of the reward. But you better listen to me. If you screw up, you can't go back."

He turned around and looked at the four of them before he got out of the door.

After he left, Red Beard frowned and said, "His ability is really strange. He looks like a monster."

"It's not like that. He was originally a monster!" Charlie emphasized.

In the next two days, Alan began to think about how to fight the Bauhinia Battle. Capturing the bauhinia flower meant a lot to him, and it was his last performance in the viscount's territory. After defeating Oru, it was time for Ou Ban and Daniel to show their cards. They might fight a few battles, and then the battlefield would shift to the negotiating table. The outcome of the negotiations would depend on who had the upper hand on the previous battlefield.

If nothing unexpected happened, Daniel would definitely lose this time. Even at the negotiating table, all he could do was to minimize the losses. But that didn't matter to Allen. What mattered was how he would maximize the benefits of the negotiations between the two big shots. Alan already had a preliminary idea. First of all, he would not hand over the Hungry Wolf Territory and Dawn Castle to Ou Ban.

These two territories would serve as important bases for his advancement into the empire, so he could not hand them over. Moreover, this place was in the middle of Ouban and Daniel's forces. Ouban did not have any powerful force and would consider using Alan to restrain Daniel. Therefore, Alan was very confident in retaining these two territories.

The second was Sunset City. Sunset City was currently under Ou Ban's control, and Alan planned to trade the bauhinia for it. Although Oru's territories were much richer than Sunset City, the problem was that they were close to Daniel, making them a hot potato. Alan planned to throw it to Ou Ban and let Ou Ban send his own horses to guard it. First, there was no need to put yourself in a position where conflicts could occur at any time; Secondly, it could divide Ou Ban's strength. Thirdly, he had fulfilled his promise to Tomen and maintained his credibility.

However, Alan was not completely confident in this point and could only try his best to do so.

However, in order to achieve all these, he had to wait until he took down the bauhinia flower, otherwise he would be talking on paper. So these two days, Alan called Roy, Woody, and the others to the study. The few of them deduced the plan of action to the map and adjusted some of the details from time to time.

At this time, the lord, Jodak, was the most idle. After all, Alan was worried about the big issues. As for Dawn Castle, the management of the city was already orderly, so he didn't need to worry about it at all. On this day, Jordak took some time to return to his old house, even though he had already packed his things and moved to the City Lord's Mansion. However, every corner of this small building was filled with memories of the past.

He had been here for no less than ten years, and only here could he feel the warmth of home. Ever since his mother died, all he felt was loneliness and anger.

He couldn't tell whether he was doing it for his own ambition or simply for his mother's sake to take revenge on Lafus and his family. Or perhaps, both. No matter what, he had already taken the first step, and it was a relatively successful first step. Next, he only hoped that he could go further.

After leaving the old house, Jordak passed by Baishao Bar. The Baishao Bar had been open on this street for many years, and Georg would occasionally come to the bar to drink to relieve his boredom. However, he hadn't visited the bar for a while because he had been busy fighting for the successor. Now that he had nothing else to do, he went into the bar.

"Welcome." A woman's voice rang out. Jordak was stunned. He knew almost all the bartenders in the Baishao Bar, but they were all men. When had there been another woman?

There was nothing unusual about the bartender in front of her, but her amber eyes were very attractive, and her waist was very thin, her chest was full, her legs were slender, but her figure was extremely hot. Because it was afternoon and there weren't many guests in the bar, Jordak chose a better seat to sit down. The bartender boldly sat down on the table and showed him her beautiful long legs without any hesitation.

"What can I do for you, sir?"

"Wheat wine." '"Are you new?" Jodak looked up.

"Yeah, I've only been here for less than a week."

"What is your name?"

The bartender did not answer, leaving him with a seductive gaze. She turned around and left.

A moment later, a glass of wheat wine was placed on Jordak's table, and the woman stuffed a small note into his hand. Jodak took it quietly and took a look while he was drinking. The words "Come to the back alley of the bar" and a fresh lip print were written on it.

Jodak drank all the wine in one breath, put down the price of the wine, and left the bar. This was also the first time he had encountered such a bold and hot woman, and he had a bit of a temptation to hunt her down. Behind the bar was a secluded alley. Just as Jordak was about to dive in, someone behind him whispered, "My lord, shouldn't we go back?"

Those were a few confidant guards that he had developed himself. They would disguise themselves as all sorts of people beside Geordak and secretly protect his safety.

Hearing this, Jordak only waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter. I'll play and go back."

The guards had no choice but to give up.

In the alley, the bartender leaned against the wall and unbuttoned her chest. When she heard the footsteps, she sat down on one of the boxes and hooked her fingers at Jordak. "Come on," she said, "but I told you beforehand, it's not free service."

'"Don't worry, my reward will definitely satisfy you," Jodak said with a smile.

The woman laughed and said, "That would be best."

She kicked her shoe off and lifted it up to show Geordak a near perfect leg line. Jordak felt as if a ball of flame had exploded in his lower abdomen. He roared and rushed forward, burying his head deep into the woman's chest. With another tug, he roughly tore open the woman's coat. Jordak panted heavily and reached out to hold it, feeling that the heroic mountain peaks were hard to grasp.

The woman chuckled and crossed her legs, resting on Jordak's shoulder, stimulating his senses even more. Jordak was probably too excited, and his head went dizzy. He didn't think much of it, so he went straight to the point. Unexpectedly, the world in his eyes gradually began to spin, and the laughter of a woman dragged on in his ears. He suddenly remembered the glass of ale. Jordak hurriedly pushed the woman away and retreated. He pointed at her and said, "Who are you? That glass of ale "

"There's some ingredients in it." Charlie jumped down and walked towards Geordak. "What's wrong? Aren't you going to eat me? Come on, I want it so badly now."

"Come Someone!" With all his might, Jordak barely shouted.

However, the guards outside the alley didn't seem to listen and no one appeared. Charlie wrapped her hands around Jordak's neck and said, "Darling, those guards of yours have probably been killed by Red Beard now. That fellow isn't as gentle as me, but don't worry, I specifically told him to leave someone behind. Someone has to report it, right?"

Jodak wanted to say something, but when it came to medicine, he finally fainted. With a shrug of his head, he leaned against Charlie's chest and became unconscious. Charlie laughed and stretched out her hand to peek down at Geordak, when Ceglis came in from the alley and frowned, "Don't do anything unnecessary."

Charlie shrugged her shoulders, withdrew her hand, and licked her lips gently, "How stern, boss Ceglis."
