Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 649 Death Returns

At this moment, there are more than a dozen snake scales and twenty valuable crystal thorns in Alan's backpack. The left side of the rucksack bulged outwards, judging from the almost oval outline, it was definitely not snake scales and crystal spines. That's another thing Allen harvested from the python, the core. The core is another heart of the giant python, but this heart is completely crystallized. It is like the power furnace of the starship, and the core is the essence of the python's whole body.

The core itself is not rare, but those beasts that can use the source power will gradually form an organ-like crystal in the body as the source power mastered increases. They are used to store and drive the source force, which is the core. It's just that the core has different sizes. Generally speaking, the larger the core, the more source power it stores, and the purer the quality.

For human beings, and even most intelligent life in the universe, the way they drive the source force is more from the engraving and the source force circuit. This is the difference between intelligent life and wild beasts. Wild beasts cannot form engravings, they can only rely on the core. And this also determines that the abilities of intelligent life are diversified, while the abilities of beasts are relatively simple, but relatively pure.

The core of the crystal thorn python is the size of a football, which is relatively rare. When the core was taken out of the giant python, it was crystal clear, overflowing with lavender light, like a piece of fine purple cloud jade. There are also natural dark purple lines in the core, and the thickest of these crystal filaments is even as thick as Allen's little finger. These crystal filaments are distributed with gold dust ∈ the size of a grain of sand, and the surging source power can be extracted from each golden sand.

Snake scales, crystal thorns, core core. According to Catherine's valuation, these three items are worth at least 30 million federal coins. Its central core accounts for almost two-thirds of the value. If these few things are processed and sold, the price will be even higher.

When Allen heard this number, he was almost in a dream. You must know that he has been operating on Paradise Star for so long, and the Themes silver he brought back only sold about 20 million. Now killing one crystal python costs 30 million yuan, and there are at least three more like this crystal python, which is a wealth of nearly 100 million yuan! If even the crystal thorn python is so valuable, Allen can no longer imagine the value of Mother Earth.

After knowing the value of the crystal python, even Allen became a little moved about hunting the Mother of the Earth.

That is simply a moving gold mountain!

Now these things in the backpack cannot be directly exchanged for military merit, but Allen is not worried about making a move. He intends to keep the snake scales for himself. As for the crystal thorn core, he will sell it as long as someone buys it. Things like this, especially the core, and even the Federation will be willing to pay for the acquisition. Now Allen just wants to return to the Kaiyan base as soon as possible, in addition to shooting these things, he also wants to meet other people.

Alan felt quite ashamed when he thought of being the leader of the hunting group but leaving the team for so many days. But he didn't know that the Kaiyan base had already spent six full days in the flames of war.

There are high-energy light beams piercing through the air and loud explosions everywhere.

What can be smelled is the choking blood and the ubiquitous burning smell. Renner had already smelled enough of this smell. But at this moment, the strong smell of blood pierced his nostrils even more. It came from a corpse just lying down at his feet, the corpse of Red Spear Stark. The death of this enemy commander meant that the war was truly over.

When Reina looked back, he realized that the battle had lasted so long, and they could persist for so long.

Everything is like a miracle.

After Reese returned to the base with the enemy's intelligence, at dusk on the second day, when the Holly Forest was dyed golden by the setting sun, this coalition army composed of Cato warriors and Grai giants appeared in the In front of the Kaiyan base. It was an evening red with blood, and the enemy troops who had just arrived at the base did not even have a rest, so Stark the Red Spear directly launched an order to attack.

Gray giants act as strikers, without a doubt, they are the most feared strikers. When the first Gray giant hit a section of the guard wall on the east side of the base, the base army, which normally only beat the natives of the planet, reacted. Lieutenant Colonel Ned issued a counterattack order in a hasty and somewhat hesitant voice, thus kicking off the war.

After a few days, Reina still clearly remembered that when all the turret arrays in the base opened fire crazily, more than half of the giants rushed up directly against the artillery fire. Their bodies exploded into waves of blood under the fierce artillery fire, and the hot blood sprinkled from the giants melted the snow, forming winding rivers of blood flowing on the battlefield. The berserk warriors of the Gatu tribe just stepped on the blood of the giants and their corpses, covering up from behind and carrying out fierce attacks again and again.

It was an extremely tough battle. During the all-night battle, the light beams and flames near the base never stopped for a moment. The fire that appeared from the direction of the base could almost illuminate half of Holly Forest. When the fighting lasted from evening to the next day, the Starks withdrew temporarily. At this time, hundreds of corpses of both the enemy and the enemy had been left outside the base.

Among them, ten of the Gray giants alone died in the first battle, and only three giants were wounded and returned to the temporary camp.

As for the Kaiyan base, apart from the federal soldiers who died in battle, all other hunting groups suffered battle losses. Cage's team was the most serious. At that time, a gray giant directly attacked the defense area they were stationed, causing all of Cage's team members to die in battle. This was a huge blow to Cage, and it also buried in his heart Deep hatred.

As time progresses, the battle becomes more and more tense. And when the death toll on both sides began to rise, so did the hatred. Both sides gritted their teeth and wanted to eat each other, but no matter which side it was, the enemy's bone was hard enough to swallow.

On the third day of the battle, Reina led his men and horses to quietly go around to the rear of the enemy army. Relying on the precise information provided by Reiss, he knocked out the enemy's material storage point in one fell swoop, thus tilting the balance of the war. Cato warriors or Grai giants, their diet is very wide, and they can even eat wild beasts raw. However, there must be beasts to satisfy their hunger. After the war broke out, almost all the beasts in Holly Forest subconsciously avoided this battlefield. After the supplies were destroyed, the foreign allied forces wanted to replenish their food, so they had to go hunting in the forest four or five hundred kilometers away.

Obviously, this is very unrealistic.

As a result, the coalition forces could only fight on an empty stomach. There is no doubt that the Cato soldiers were very brave on the battlefield. But their food intake is as big as their size, especially the Gray giants. In the case of food shortages, the offensive of the coalition forces began to look weak, which is undoubtedly great news for the human side of the Kaiyan base.

With the cooperation of the army and the hunting group, the human camp began to counterattack, actively organizing offensives, and constantly weakening the enemy's strength. Finally, today, under the cover of the base army, a group of strong men headed by Reina pierced through the enemy's defense line, penetrated into the central army, and killed Red Spear Stark in one fell swoop. When Stark's body, whose chest collapsed after being hit by the bone-piercing warhammer, was erected high, the Cato warriors were the most powerful enemy.

Without Stark's overall command, no matter how brave the Cato warriors are, they are nothing but scattered sand. Coupled with the demoralization of the army and the depression of fighting spirit, the federal army took the opportunity to sweep them up, causing them to retreat steadily. On the contrary, the remaining two Gray giants were quite vigorous, frantically intercepting the federal army, and finally died in the hands of Regis and Belmode.

The battle, which lasted for several days, finally came to an end when the remnants of the enemy retreated into the forest. By this time, even Reina was exhausted physically and mentally. After returning to the base, he fell asleep after washing his body, and did not wake up until the next morning.

Opening the curtains and looking at the pitted battlefield outside the base, when the Federation soldiers were still cleaning the battlefield, Reina still felt like he was in a dream. He squeezed his thigh hard to be sure that this was not a dream, and the battle was over.

Today's restaurant is extremely deserted, especially in the dining area where powerful people from various families are entertained, there are only a few people. Among them, Regis occupied a table by himself, and was sweeping the food on the table. Renner also joined the sweeping ranks, and Regis just looked up at him, then continued to eat in silence. At the height of the war, they didn't even have time to eat, they just squeezed a sip of nutrients into their mouths before rushing to the battlefield.

Now that there is plenty of time, no one would want to continue eating nutrients. It wasn't until he ate everything on the table that Regis patted his stomach and let out a satisfied breath. Only then did Renner ask, "Where are the other two?"

"Bermod and Reese went to reconnaissance early in the morning. They wanted to know where the remaining enemy troops finally retreated, and they might be able to find the enemy's base camp. As for Lucy, you know, Your Highness has not had much appetite recently." Lei Jess sat up straight, frowned and said, "There is no news from Alan so far, so it's really worrying."

At this time, there was a commotion outside the restaurant. Reina frowned and looked, there were crowds of people outside the door, as if they were watching something. Suddenly Ned's voice sounded: "Get out of the way, the general is here, what a shame."

The lieutenant colonel made his way through the crowd and separated the soldiers onlookers into two sides. There were several people following Ned, and when the lieutenant colonel turned sideways, two black and white ponytails slammed into the eyes of the two of them.

Catherine!

Regis rubbed his eyes, and the person walking behind Reina was indeed Catherine, God of Death. She was wearing a straight general uniform, and the silver federal general star on her shoulders was shining brightly under the lights of the restaurant. Behind Catherine, her adjutant and several guards followed, and they looked at the restaurant indifferently.

Reina stood up suddenly, and stood in front of Catherine and said in a deep voice, "General Catherine, why are you here?"

Catherine raised her eyebrows: "Is there something wrong? I passed by the Kaiyan base to make necessary supplies. Could it be that these should be reported to Beth Kind?"

Ned looked puzzled, he had no idea what the smell of gunpowder was in the breath of the two men.
