Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 78: Monster

Dawn Blade Academy is an exquisite and magnificent architectural complex, styled after the most common Gothic buildings in Babylon. Dome, steeple, arch, buttress, stone fence, carving everywhere. Pebbled walkways, green trees and sycamore trees, large floor-to-ceiling windows and stained glass, small squares and fountains for teachers and students to rest are everywhere.

Walking in the academy, it was quiet and quiet.

Julie showed Ellen around the academy, telling him what the public areas were and what the teaching areas were. There are many areas in the academy, which can be roughly divided into main building, auxiliary building community, warehouse, dining room, public area, experimental area, combat area and student dormitory. Julie knew the academy like the back of her hand. She talked endlessly along the way, and occasionally interspersed with some interesting stories about the academy, so the entire visit process was not dull and tedious.

Alan also noticed that there weren't many students in the academy. Often, a long and wide corridor could only bump into three to five students. However, this was normal. After all, the Blade of Dawn was set up for the important disciples of various aristocratic families. As the future elite of the upper class in the Federation, there would definitely not be many of them. In her introduction, Julie had also brought along another civilian academy. The Shield of Hope was much larger than the Blade of Dawn. On the other hand, the number of students in the academy was dozens of times that of the Blade of Dawn!

Finally, Julie takes Alan to the dormitory. It was said to be a dormitory, but on the outside, it looked like a row of classic and elegant apartments. Each apartment building is five floors tall and has only two rooms on each floor. These dark red stone brick apartments, decorated with lawn and exquisite street lamps, are specially designed for Allen's family. As for self-financed students like Julie, they had other dormitories.

Naturally, they couldn't own a single suite. Just the space they lived in was enough to distinguish between the commoners and the nobles. However, in terms of teaching, the Blade of Dawn was fair. Self-financed students are able to take any subject of interest to them without any restrictions.

"Alright, Ellen. I think you also have a rough idea of Dawn Blade. If you want to know more about it, you can come to me anytime." "Of course, if you let me, I can come to you. After all, your room is very big, so we can get to know each other better." Julie reported her apartment plate and quietly walked to Ellen's side.

Only an idiot could not hear the hint. Just as the atmosphere became ambiguous, a voice suddenly interrupted, "Little Elk!"

Hearing this voice, Alan revealed a headache, and Julie was shocked. On the other side of the quiet walkway, Adele was walking over with a smile on her face. It was as if she had only seen Alan, but she completely ignored Julie, who looked a little more beautiful beside him.

Of course, Julie knew that the girl in front of her was the eldest young miss of the Morsen family. Even if the Morsons were inferior to Beth Cod, they were not commoners like her. Besides, Adele was not a descendant of a side branch, but a direct descendant, and her status was 108,000 miles away from hers. One was in the sky, the other was on the ground. As Adele approached aggressively, Julie quickly took a few steps back to prevent Adele from bumping into her.

"Why are you here?" Alan said in a surprised voice.

"Isn't it rude to say that?" Adele pretended to be pitiful. "She's a student of Dawn Blade anyway. Isn't it strange for her to appear in the academy?"

'"Of course, graduating is too easy for me. As long as I have enough credits, I rarely come to school. Only those idiots have to stay in the academy and eat books every day." In just a few words, Adele revealed her arrogant nature.

Then she finally looked at Julie and said, "Who are you? Why are you still here? Are you trying to hook up with Alan? Don't even think about it. The little elk is mine!"

"Yes, Miss Adele." Julie hurriedly left.

'"Stop calling me milu deer. Besides, I'm not yours," Ellen protested.

"Hey, who wants to be their best friend?"

"Even so, I'm not yours!"

Julie was confused as she listened to the entangled conversation between Alan and Adele. It was shocking to see that this young master of Bescott was already Adele's prey. Everyone in the academy knew that Adele was not to be trifled with. Ignoring the clan itself, this girl was not simple. Not to mention girls, even the noble young masters had to turn around and run when they saw Adele. In short, this girl was definitely not someone he could afford to provoke. As for the doubt, Allen and she seemed to know each other, and they were quite close. Logically speaking, Allen was a branch disciple, no matter how outstanding he was, he would not enter Adele's eyes. Why would that heavenly prodigy treat him differently?

Julie quickly left the apartment area. When he turned a corner, he was suddenly pulled behind a sycamore tree. Then the man hugged her tightly from behind and ruthlessly kneaded her chest with one hand. Julie wanted to scream, but she covered her mouth and heard someone behind her say, "Don't scream, baby. Unless you don't want this."

The man let go of the hand that was rubbing her chest and took out a card from his pocket. On the card was the symbol of the Federation Sword crossing with the musket, and in the middle was the symbol of the Federation Bank.

"This is?"

Julie turned around while the man let her go. It was a boy of her age, Vincent, who was also from Beth Cod.

"Young Master Vincent?" Julie said in surprise.

"Thank you for remembering me." Vincent raised the card in his hand and said, "There are 50,000 federal dollars in here. Do you want the money?"

"Of course!" Julie smiled embarrassedly.

Vincent nodded. "Very well, did that old fellow Helsing appoint you as Ellen? Yes, the successor of that brother of mine?"

"That's right, I just showed Young Master Allen around the academy."

"Come here." Vincent waved his hand.

Julie walked over tactfully. Vincent pressed her against the tree trunk and took a deep breath between her hair. Then he reached into Julie's collar and inserted the card into a deep ditch in her chest. "Listen, I want you to get close to Ellen. Also, tell me his daily whereabouts, including what he did. In that case, you'll get a thousand dollars for every piece of information I give you, understand?"

As he spoke, Vincent was not idle. She touched Julie's chest, rubbed it hard and shouted, "Damn it, it's really big."

Julie made him very sad, but did not dare to resist, and said, "Young Master Vincent, you should have seen it. Miss Adele is next to Young Master Allen, and I can't get near her at all. Oh no, please don't."

'"Adele won't stay in the academy forever," he said hatefully. "Besides, don't you even know how to seduce men? Lure Allen to bed and let him kick Adele out, understand?"

"I know. Oh, Young Master Vincent."

"This is the restaurant, but believe me, the steak they make is terrible."

Adele shook her head at the entrance of the dining hall. Alan didn't think so. He grew up on the surface and was the least picky about food. What was unpleasant to Adele was already a rare delicacy to him.

"Damn it, you hit me!" Suddenly, a sharp voice sounded not far away.

A girl with brown hair shouted from the cobblestone walkway. Beside her were two companions, looking fiercely at the other girl. Black hair, long black skirts, only his skin was so pale that it was almost morbid. It's Vera, Hughton's granddaughter. Seeing that it was her, Alan frowned. There were drawing boards and charcoal brushes scattered on the ground. It looked like they belonged to Vera.

The brown-haired girl shouted, "Who are you? You look like a stranger, don't you? Damn it, I'm going to protest to the academy. How can a noble place like Dawn Blade let some commoners run around?"

Alan snorted when he heard this. Adele looked at him in surprise and asked, "Is that black-haired girl your friend?"

"Mr. Hughton's granddaughter, he entrusted me with taking care of her."

'"Oh," said Adele, "May I help you?"

'"No, Mr. Hughton means it. As long as Vera is not hurt, that girl has heard that her heart has been hurt. Mr. Hughton hopes that she can walk out of the shadows by herself. So..." Alan helplessly spread out his hands.

At this moment, he faced the aggressive brown-haired girl. Vera, on the other hand, was very calm. She didn't say a word and just looked at the girl. The brown-haired girl was speechless after being stared at by Vera's deep eyes. In that instant, she fell into those eyes and went straight to hell!

Vera picked up the drawing board, opened it, and quickly drew something on the paper with a charcoal brush. Then he lifted it up and gave it to the brown-haired girl. "How do you know? You're a monster! A monster!" The girl shrieked as she suddenly tore off the drawing paper like a madman.

She didn't want to leave, and her two companions followed behind her for no apparent reason. Vera picked up the pieces of paper on the ground and prepared to throw it away in the trash can next to her.

"Vera, it's Ellen. I " Ellen stopped her, but Vera didn't seem to hear anything. After throwing the shredded paper into the trash can, he went straight to the dining hall.

Adele whistled, "I don't know what she did, but it looks like she can protect herself. But Ellen, your friend has a strange personality."

Alan looked at her and smiled. "Indeed, my friends are not very normal."

'"Little Elk, you dare to bend around and say that I am abnormal!" Adele thought of something and waved her claws.
