Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 44: Horizontal Knife

"I know you, Ellen. You're ranked first and you win people's favor with your pretty face " The boy raised his alloy saber and said with narrowed eyes, "But do you really think you can "

The whistling suddenly broke his words.

The boy's chatter turned into a scream. Panic and anger flashed in his eyes, and his eyes were filled with the blade that Alan had slashed at him. He hadn't expected that Alan would fight as soon as he said it, and that he wouldn't even have the time to finish his sentence. Kuang Tu had already brought along an intimidating whistle!

Alan's eyes were cold, and his pupils emitted a faint glow like a magnificent ruby. From his eyes, it was as if he saw a floating red liquid, as intoxicating as red wine, and as terrifying as blood! What fascinated his heart was his beautiful eyes, and what made one's heart palpitate was the merciless killing intent at this moment!

He slashed three times in a row!

Dang dang dang dang, three extremely loud intersection sounds sounded one by one.

With the first slash, the boy took three steps back. The second cut, the boy's tiger's mouth exploded, blood flowing out. In the third strike, a corner of the edge of the alloy saber collapsed. Several cracks spread across the smooth surface of the saber, causing the boy's face that was reflected on the saber to appear extremely frightened.

Alan struck three times and the boy took nine steps back. For a moment, his arms were numb and numb, and his entire body was filled with qi and blood. Origin energy shrieked in his veins like a wild horse that had escaped its reins. At this time, Allen dragged his broadsword and ran forward, jumping up. Berserk Slaughter bounced up and shot out a black arc in the air from behind. Allen's eyes shone brightly, and the vortex of origin energy within his body vibrated violently as he flew at top speed. The three vortexes rushed through the blood vessels in his arm like meteors and collided with each other before arriving at their destination, releasing tremendous power to drive Berserk Slaughter.

Kuang Tu woke up like a sleeping beast. The blade trembled and let out a low buzzing sound as it suddenly accelerated!

A pitch-black moon arc flashed across the boy's body. However, Allen's energy-storing strike sent him flying several meters back. The boy kept retreating, leaving behind a bloody flower every time he took a step back. After retreating for three meters, he stood still. The boy's eyes widened as he lowered his head to look at the saber. A ferocious crack suddenly extended across the blade. With a cracking sound, the saber split into two. It was Allen's saber that precisely sliced into the opening of the previous saber, which cut the alloy saber into two pieces!

The boy's body shook, and blood flowed out of his eyes, nostrils, and mouth at the same time. He had a terrifying appearance and looked at what Alan wanted to say. However, his throat was filled with blood. With just a few "grunts", he fell to the ground and was already dead.

The girl beside him stared blankly at all of this. From Allen's first attack to his companion's death with a stunning saber strike, everything happened in a short moment. The change was so fast that she didn't have time to support him, and the boy was chopped to death by Ellen's four slashes.

Alan looked coldly at the remaining girls. He used his new winning momentum to successfully shock the girl and buy himself time to recover. The seemingly simple attack just now actually consumed a lot of strength. Especially the last slash, a large amount of Origin Energy galloped past like a wild horse, causing the blood vessels on his arm and shoulder to numb and swell, making him feel extremely uncomfortable.

That was because his body's strength was still unable to adapt to this level of Origin Energy impact, and this was only the impact of three vortexes. One could imagine how terrifying the impact on his body would be when the nine vortexes collided with each other. No wonder Hughton had said that it was not a good idea to use the power of the nine vortexes to break through the barrier.

The girl finally regained her senses. She looked at Alan in fear and shook her head, "Don't kill me."

Alan also calmed down the impact of the massive Origin Energy impact on his body. He calmly looked at the young girl and said, "You should know that there are only four people who can leave this place."

"I know." The girl nodded desperately, "So look, I can help you kill Lucen. Of course, there's one more person. If I choose, I'll kill Mike. He has a grudge with you, hasn't he? Oh, he doesn't look too well either "

The girl looked in Lu Sen's direction. Alan seemed to be influenced by her and turned to look at Fatty. At this moment when he was distracted, the girl's gaze suddenly became sharp. She rushed forward at an extremely fast speed, each of her hands releasing a dagger. He tossed out the dagger on his left and aimed it straight at Alan's face. As she thought, Allen turned around with a surprised and angry expression, dodging the dagger as a flying prop in a bit of panic.

Alan's reaction and evasion were all in the girl's calculations. She had seized the opportunity to get closer and wiped the dagger at Alan's neck. The moment she was about to win, she couldn't help but blurt out, "Idiot, I'm lying "

At the end of her sentence, the young girl suddenly felt a chest chill. Then, the surging power in her body seemed to flow out of her body with this trace of coldness. She lowered her head and saw that Ellen's Berserker was leaning against her. Kuang Tu was a square blade without a blade tip. However, at this moment, the lines on its blade lit up. The activated energy saber light pierced through the young girl's thin body, cutting off all the blood vessels and organs in her body!

The dagger in the girl's hand was only one saber position away from Allen's neck. Only then did she see that Alan's eyes were very calm and did not look like a panicked person at all.

"I lied to you too." Ellen whispered as he retracted his Origin Energy. The mad slaughterer's veins dimmed again. He reached out and pushed the girl to the ground. At this time, a red line gradually appeared on the girl's chest, and then blood stained her jacket red.

"Ah!"

"No!"

Two screams sounded at the same time. Alan looked over and saw that the screams came from Mike and Wayne.

As expected, Mike was no match for Fatty. Lucen had a military thorn in his shoulder. That should be Mike's weapon. However, Mike punched Lu Sen to the ground. The huge impact made it impossible for the young man who wasn't strong to get up. Lu Sen even smiled sinisterly and sat on his body forcefully. The fatty's weight, coupled with this deliberate attack, almost knocked Mike's spine down, causing him to scream in pain.

On the other side, Wayne gave Ann a chance to get close. Ann's hands passed through Wayne's armpits and wrapped around his neck, preventing him from moving. Lucy took the opportunity to shoot and accurately made a bullet hole in Wayne's forehead. Blood sprayed out of Ann's head.

Seeing that Wayne was finished, Lucen snorted and grabbed Mike's head with his fat hand. With a cracking sound, Mike's neck was snapped and his head lowered weakly.

This was a surprise to Alan. He looked thoughtfully at Ans and then went on to bring up Kuang Tu. He leaned forward and rushed towards the fatty. But before he could get close to Lu Sen, a beam of light descended from the sky and streaked across the ground in front of Allen. Alan couldn't help but stop himself when the surging heat approached him. The ground had already been scorched to a depth of ten centimeters, and the white smoke rising from it told Alan that the beam of light also had a high-temperature effect.

"That's all for now." Alstair's voice rang out again from the cube, "Your performance was unexpectedly wonderful. The energy shield only dropped by two gears and the winner was decided." That's right, but rules are rules. I said four people can leave, but not three. So, boys, pick up your rewards and leave this place. You can have a good rest for the next 24 hours. I guarantee that no dangerous species will appear in your line of sight. "

Ellen couldn't help but put away Berserk. He didn't want to avenge Mike. It was just that there was one less opponent like Lusen, especially when Fatty's body energy had already declined. It was a perfect opportunity. Unfortunately, the Committee did not allow him to do so.

Lucen arrogantly waved his middle finger at Alan and smiled as he shook Mike's head, "Look at this guy. He's your end."

"You should be glad that the committee interfered. Otherwise, there would be another corpse lying on the ground." Alan replied coldly, then walked to the side of the cube and picked up two needles from the robot arm.

One of them was thrown to Lucy who was walking over. Both of them stabbed into their arms and pressed all the nano robots inside into their bodies. Alan nodded to Lucy and the two chose to leave east. As they walked out of the energy shield, the surrounding dangerous species naturally split apart, forming a passageway. The nanobots were already working, allowing the two of them to safely walk through the beast corridor.

Landing on the shore, Alan looked in the direction of the island in the lake. Ann was waving goodbye to him when Alan shook his head and pulled Lucy away.

'"Lu Sen" After Allen and the others left, Ans picked up his own injection. Lu Sen had already finished injecting and was about to leave when Ans stopped him.

"What? You want to fight me?" Lu Sen narrowed his eyes.

Ann smiled. "No, I think it's time for us to work together."

"With you?" Lu Sen's face was filled with disdain.

"Yes, with me." Ann smiled and said, "You should thank me. If I hadn't been dragging my feet, Wayne would have been on his way. Do you think you would have had time to kill Mike if Lucy and I had worked together to deal with you?"

Lu Sen's expression stiffened as he slowly opened his eyes. It was as if he had met Anse for the first time, and he looked at him seriously from beginning to end, "You're not on Ellen's side. Why did you do this?"

Ann sighed. "It's a situation. You see, Alan and Lucy are a good team. If I kill you, I'll have to pick Mike. But to be honest, I don't like this guy."

"So you see, with your strength, plus my brain." Ann nodded her head. "Alan and the others are not scary. Or are you more willing to fight three at a time?"

'Only a fool would do such a thing,' Lucen smacked his lips. 'Well, Ans, we're partners. But don't blame me for being impolite before you kill Alan.'

"Of course not." An Si's expression was sincere.
