(Do you think there's no more? Haha, the fifth update! This time, it's really gone. Isn't it awesome today? Everyone has a good time watching. Remember to subscribe more. It would be even better if there were rewards and encouragement!)
Allen closed his eyes and pretended to sleep, thinking of countermeasures in his heart.
Russen's previous words were simply a combination of carrot and stick. If it was someone with a weaker will, Under his soft and hard, hot and cold attitude, he had long been at a loss for what to do. In the end, he could only follow his orders. Allen didn't lose his mind, but the important thing was that Russen was clearly threatening him with the lives of the two of them. This kind of undisguised and crude method made Allen angry, but he didn't dare to say anything.
It was all because Fang Xiao's life was hanging in the hands of a single person.
Anger could not solve the problem. He needed to calmly think about the stakes and find a balance. When he had the chance, he would vent this anger on the culprit.
No matter what, he couldn't tear his face off with Russen now. Otherwise, there would be no room for manoeuvre between the two sides.
As he pondered, Allen gradually made up his mind.
The cabin suddenly shook without warning. Russen frowned and asked, "What's going on?"
The person in the driver's seat replied, "General, we're being watched. It's the flying unit of the Ratchet Tribe! "
The Ratchet Tribe was one of the ten Saber Demons. If they appeared, it meant that the flying ship had already entered the frontline war zone. Russen shouted, "Open the projection window."
A wave of light flashed across the walls on both sides of the cabin, and a row of virtual windows that could see the outside world opened. Sitting outside the window, Allen could clearly see bright red energy beams flashing past his surroundings. Occasionally, one of them would hit the flying ship and collide fiercely with the flying ship's shield. The flying ship made an evasive move and began to climb into the air. Allen looked behind him and saw a small, strange-looking flying ship moving sideways from the stern.
The hull of the ship was segmented, like the body of some kind of insect. Lavender wings spread out on both sides. Some kind of shooting system poked out from the front of the flying ship, and the flag of the tribe stood on the stern. On the flag that was blown wildly by the wind, occasionally, as the angle of the ship changed, one could see the pattern of dense white teeth on it.
"What annoying things, Catherine?" Russen looked at the major general next to him.
Reaper Catherine unbuckled her seat belt without saying a word. At this moment when the airship was undulating, she walked out of the cabin steadily as if her feet were nailed to the floor. Catherine walked to the lift deck and said, "Open the deck cabin."
"Please be careful, Lady Catherine." After a reply came from the control room, the deck hatch retracted to both sides. As the air pressure inside and outside the cabin changed drastically, and as the cabin door opened, a huge suction force pulled at Catherine, causing her long black and white hair to flutter forward. However, the young girl could not move at all.
Catherine's eyes began to fill with confusion. Yi Gui? Yue Nuozhuo? Traces? Du? Du? Blood Mist Centipede? Remonstrance in the twilight? Poke? More generous? Shang Zhong? If I look at the proud Ginseng, inside the locusts cover the broken-silk Qiong Ti play? Former Senior? Neon Field Hercules Blink? Du? Hippopotamus? Continued generation. It was also an Origin Energy Base Plate, but Catherine's Origin Energy Base Plate was much larger than Coggess's. From the looks of it, it was almost all over her upper body.
The Origin Energy Base Plate suddenly shrank towards the center of her eyebrows. When all the patterns and symbols shrank into a little, they bounced away like a cosmic explosion, finally forming a pattern. The pattern was in the shape of a woman, holding a huge curved sickle in one hand, but raising a segmented scorpion tail from behind her waist. The lines on it were clear and exquisite, with black lines as the main tone. The white space within it was just right to emphasize the beautiful figure of a woman.
This was Catherine's Grade 2 inscription, the Snake and Scorpion Empress!
He patted the martial artifact bag on the outside of his thigh with both hands and pulled out two metal rods shaped like short rods. However, after joining them, other components popped out from the front of the two metal rods, and the metal components disintegrated and combined on their own. After a scythe-shaped energy light sheet ejected from the front, a black pattern meandered down like a snake, and a scythe appeared in Catherine's hand.
The magical weapon snake sickle was one of Catherine's most commonly used weapons. Apart from that, she also had a scorpion spear, but she didn't bring it with her this time. However, it was more than enough to deal with a few single-person airships of the Ratchet Tooth Tribe.
With a wave of her hand, the snake sickle was placed on the girl's shoulder, and she gracefully walked out of the cabin door on the deck that often descended from the void. The cold wind outside the door was even stronger, causing Catherine's black and white ponytail to be pulled back. A scarlet light suddenly lit up in the eyes of the Nether River, but an enemy airship that had caught up to her fired an energy beam at her.
Catherine suddenly turned around and used the snake sickle to destroy the energy beam, and the sickle swung away. The blade of the sickle flew out and nailed itself into the airship's fuselage with a whoosh. There was a beam of light connecting the blade and the blade. Catherine pulled it slightly and leaped into the void outside the deck. Her entire body immediately fell from the sky. However, after falling about ten meters, the beam of light shrank and immediately pulled her towards the enemy ship.
In the blink of an eye, Reaper and the flying ship brushed past each other.
Catherine pulled up the snake sickle, and the energy surface buzzed as she cut off the nose of the small single-person ship. When the fuselage disintegrated, sparks could still be seen jumping from the cut surface. The flying ship exploded with a loud bang, forming a fireball in midair. In the fireball, Catherine had already borrowed the force to pounce on the second enemy plane. Still in midair, the snake sickle waved and the blade spun out, nailing into the side of the enemy plane. With the help of the tractor beam, Catherine pounced towards it.
Very quickly, a second fireball appeared in midair.
Just like that, Catherine used the special nature of the snake sickle to destroy the enemy planes at high altitudes.
In just a moment, Catherine had already landed on the last flying ship. She held the sickle in her hand and dragged the blade towards the stern of the ship. The energy surface tore the unlucky flying ship into two. Catherine exerted force on her toes and soared into the air. The flying ship was pressed down by her before it exploded into a fireball. Catherine jumped to the highest point and was about to land. The light above his head dimmed, but an airship had already arrived.
The sickle stuck out and hooked the deck with its blade. In midair, the young girl's slender body swung up agilely and landed steadily on the deck. Catherine put away the snake sickle, dispersed the engraving, and returned to the cabin as if nothing had happened. He nodded slightly at Russen and sat back in his original seat. However, Allen and the others looked at her with a strange gaze, and Allen was even more calculating in his heart. If Catherine had taken out the sickle first in the base, judging from the long and short attack characteristics of the snake sickle, he would probably have been slaughtered by the sickle before he could even get close to Catherine.
The strength of a major general was indeed not to be underestimated.
Allen suddenly felt a slight prickling sensation on his face. He raised his head and met Catherine's gaze. The girl suddenly stuck out her bright red tongue and gently licked her lips, as if she was looking at something delicious.
Allen's scalp exploded, and he felt that she seemed to be even more terrifying than Russen.
Ten minutes later, they arrived at the frontline base, Shadow Fortress. The Shadow Stronghold was built on the shady side of the Aleppo Mountains. There was only a very short period of sunlight every day, and the rest of the stronghold was always covered by the shadows of the mountains, hence the name Shadow. This was the forward base used by Death to attack the heart of the Inferno. After crossing the Yale Mountains, they would enter the Alex Plains.
Advancing southwest, they would soon be able to see the Iron Hoof Camp. It was an outpost and troop storage point that the Iron Hoof Tribe had set up in front of the center of the blazing earth. If they took it down, they would be able to enter the Scarlet Lava Lands through the Hurricane Canyon, where the center of the blazing earth was located.
When they arrived above the base, Russen and Catherine left the cabin. Only Allen and the others were left in the cabin. Seeing this, Welik finally couldn't help but ask, "Boss, what do you think? You're not really going to hand over the technology of the Fire Fighting Rifle, are you? "
Allen whispered, "You heard it before. If I don't cooperate, General Russen probably won't let you off."
"But …"
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. If you don't cooperate, you will be in danger. But if I cooperate, no one stipulates that I have to provide complete information. After all, Russen won't know the details of that information. Otherwise, he wouldn't have gone through so much trouble to 'invite' us over. "Allen smiled.
The airship shook and landed on six. Catherine returned to the cabin and said, "Follow me. Settle down your accommodations first. The general will see you in the afternoon."
The last sentence was addressed to Allen.
After getting off the airship, the first thing he felt was that the temperature outside was higher than at Blood Hawk Base. Allen and the others were at the aerodrome of the stronghold. Shadow Stronghold and Blood Hawk Base were two completely different scenes. Just the aerodrome in front of him was equivalent to the entire Blood Hawk Base. There were rows of magic energy frigates parked on the aerodrome, including sparrowhawks, raptors, and other flying ships of different types and functions.
At this moment, it was a rare sunny time for the stronghold, and the aerodrome was bustling with people coming and going. Russen had already left first, while Catherine called an off-road vehicle and drove the driver off. She drove Allen and the others away from the aerodrome. Out of the aerodrome was an open training ground. There were soldiers training. The outline of the command building could be seen from afar on the left side of the training ground. However, the building was hidden under the shade of the mountain, and from this direction, it could not be seen clearly due to the backlight.
Along the way, Catherine was a man of few words, only introducing some of the functional areas of the base. Finally, the car drove into the barracks. The barracks were built on a sandy ground, and the car drove on it bumpy. There were rows of dormitories here, and between the dormitories was a public area for soldiers to move about. When the car drove in, it wasn't hard to see soldiers gathered in groups of three or five. There were always one or two figures in the crowd that were wrestling with each other. The crowd would jeer from time to time, causing the entire barracks to be in a mess. This was completely different from Blood Hawk Base.
Catherine parked the car in front of a dormitory building. She jumped out of the car first and hooked her finger at the people in the car. Allen and the others jumped down one after another. Just as Lucy was about to follow, Catherine shook her head and said, "The general has ordered me to prepare another place for you, unless you want to live here yourself."
Lucy picked up her luggage and was about to jump down when Allen said, "This place is not suitable for you. Let's listen to the general's arrangements."
Looking at Allen's serious expression, Lucy could only nod and sit down. Catherine took the lead and walked towards the building. "Come with me. In Shadow Stronghold, you have to remember. In here, everything was obtained through fighting. A place to live, food, women, and even … an official position. "
