Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 89: Greed

"The Endless Battery is capable of freely transforming and combining forms according to the battlefield environment or Windsor Belo's will. There are nine basic forms that can be transformed, each of which can be partially adjusted to meet real-time strategic requirements. That's why it has the endless reputation." Hughton's eyes lit up when he spoke of the Origin Tool. "It has to be said that old Monroe is truly a genius. Only his bold and unrestrained transcendent thoughts allowed him to have the magic power equipment he has today. Unfortunately, even a high-grade Level 20 Martial Equipment is unable to compare to the Origin Tool."

'"Just the invulnerability of Origin Tools is not something that can be compared to magic energy weapons. Moreover, each Origin Tool possesses multiple abilities, so how can a single-ability magic energy weapon be compared to it, let alone the difference in power between heaven and earth?" Hughton said with slight disappointment, "I have touched my magic energy martial equipment all my life, but I have never touched my Origin Tool. If one day I have my wish fulfilled, it would be worth it if I die "

He yawned and fell asleep on the sofa.

Alan put a blanket on him, and he fell asleep on the living-room floor.

Winter goes and spring comes.

When the first warm spring current landed on the floating island, Babylon, which had been silent for more than half a year, welcomed another grand event after the death arena. That was Windsor Belo, the Commander of the Sirius Legion and the Commander of the Federation's External Expeditionary Army, and the young female Marshal who had been dubbed Greed, returning to Earth.

Windsor Belo of the Greedy Wolf and Capulo of the Berserk Lion of the Old Marshal of the Federation were known as the "two prides of the Federation".

Windsor Belo was young and beautiful. In her twenties, she had already reached the peak of the Federation's combat strength. She had become the idol of the younger generation of the Federation army. Every year when the Sirius Legion started recruiting, countless young people would squeeze their foreheads to join the Federation's trump card legion. This showed how influential Windsor Belo was among the younger generation.

She was as stubborn as a comet in the Federation of Earth, and her years of war in the chaotic battlefield known as the Yordon Domain had stopped the alien races from invading Earth more than once. Her glorious exploits had transformed her from a comet into a star that people looked up to.

Of course, Windsor Belo was not perfect. She also had the impulse and radicality of a young man, but all of this did not prevent her from becoming the goddess of war in the hearts of the people. In the rating of the Federation, Windsor Belo's reputation had always been placed above the old and stubborn Capullo, who had no ambition at all.

On this day, the Windsor Belona, also known as the Skywolf, cut through the sky and headed for the Babylonian military port of Port Ares under the guidance of eight guided flying ships. The Babylonians who had received the news had long waited outside the harbor and on both sides of the main road, wanting to see Marshal Greed's demeanor.

Even Ellen, who was studying in Dawn Blade, could see the live broadcast of the event through the huge screen in the school square. On the screen, the Heavenly Wolf was slowly descending from the blue sky. The Heavenly Wolf was a starship-class magical energy flying ship. Its front and back sides were wide, and its 1500-meter-long captain made it look like a primordial beast.

The command tower of the airship was located at the highest position, allowing one to clearly see the vast field of vision ahead. The warp engine of the Skywolf can reach five energy levels, and it is the fastest of all federated airships. Its agility is fully consistent with Windsor Belo's strategy of fast strikes. In terms of weapon system, it is equipped with a series of heavy firepower, such as ion cannon group, turbolaser turret, rocket launcher and so on. Finally, the nine shield launchers that covered the important parts of the ship's hull ensured the defensive capabilities of the flying ship.

Seeing the entire process of the colossus descending, all the students in the plaza let out exclamations of astonishment. Even descendants of aristocratic families rarely had the chance to see a starship-level mana airship, let alone a Windsor Belo. The face that looked up at the screen was filled with excitement and excitement.

When the deck of the airship was opened, lowered, and erected on the ground, a frivolous figure emerged from the cabin door.

"Babylon is still the same as before, full of the smell of an old man's decay "

Someone whispered, "Marshal, President Mobit is also here. Please be careful what you say."

"Got it, long-winded."

She leaned forward and walked down the deck. The one who appeared in the sunlight was a tall beauty. A head of lavender-like purple curly hair jumped restlessly as the girl walked, like a ball of dazzling purple flames! Her golden pupils looked noble, and a beauty mole at the corner of her left eye softened her slightly cold and arrogant outline, giving her a sense of intimacy.

A military hat with a diagonal belt on her head made her a little more playful. However, on the white hat, the golden wolf emblem shone in the sunlight, reminding everyone that the owner of the hat had made outstanding military contributions.

A long uniform that was the same color as her hat casually hung on her slightly thin shoulders, underneath which was a black and yellow military uniform. Narrow shoulders, hips, sleeves, belts, boots, and other details all emphasized her tough and capable temperament. She stepped down from the Heavenly Wolf with a sonorous pace, as if she wanted to trample everything beneath her feet.

When she stepped on the ground of Babylon, she was greeted by high-pitched military music and excited cheers from the crowd.

Windsor Belo Seyfried, the youngest female marshal in federal history, set foot on the floating island of Babylon again after three years of separation. That night, Federal President Morbit hosted a banquet for her in the Federal Chamber of Deputies. Apart from government dignitaries, she was also invited to a banquet by the heads of the major families. The grand banquet attracted the attention of the public, with Fox Television, an official broadcaster, tracking the entire banquet and acquiring the privilege of interviewing Windsor Belo in private.

Although the interview lasted only 10 minutes, the host in charge of the interview had already prepared a bunch of questions. As soon as Windsor Belo appeared, the host threw out questions at an astonishing speed. Windsor Belo answered like a stream, showing that she had already done her homework before the interview. Although her answer was very brief, it showed a spirit that was difficult for ordinary people to reach.

When the host asked about the defensive lines of the chaotic battlefield, Windsor Belo said half-jokingly, "Speaking of which, I have to apologize to the Golden Lions first. As long as Sirius is here, they will have little chance of seeing the aliens."

The Golden Lion was a legion under another Marshal of the Federation, Capulo. When Sirius took over the expedition and stationed itself in the Yordon Domain for many years, it was responsible for the defense of the Earth Federation's outer region. Capullo and his golden lion, on the other hand, have focused on the development of neutral Russen. In recent years, he has been dubbed a federal farmer because of his negative attitude, in stark contrast to the aggressive Windsor Belo.

The two marshals had completely different styles, causing the Golden Lion and Sirius legions to be at odds with each other. Although there was no obvious friction, the wrestling in the dark had never stopped for a moment. What was emitted from this was a contest between the political camps that were attached to the two of them. Windsor Belo's bold style attracted many young soldiers and sharp politicians under the banner of vassals known as the New Party; As for Capulo, due to his solid foundation, his bloodline had long since penetrated into the floating island of Babylon, regardless of whether it was his own family or his own. Naturally, there were many powerful figures who were subordinate to Kuang Shi, and the outside world called them the old party.

The New Party and the Old Party have never reached an agreement in recent years, whether under political or military action. Luckily, President Morbit was skilled enough to balance the views of both parties at the table, allowing federal policy to proceed smoothly.

Going back to business, the 10-minute interview was coming to an end. When the host saw that he had asked all the questions he needed to ask, he threw out another optional theme: "May I know what Marshal Windsor Belo plans to do next?"

Windsor Belo said indifferently, "I will be staying in Babylon for a while. Mr. Andrew, the former Dean of Dawn Blades, and also my mentor, invited me to lecture at the academy. Although I have agreed, I have not fulfilled this promise because of my busy military affairs. "Now is the time to give my juniors and sisters a few lessons in war. I hope they will like the way I teach them."

'"In addition, I will probably choose one or several talented kids from the academy to be my students. It's time to nurture some fresh blood for Sirius. I wonder if anyone will be willing to accept my guidance."

The host's professional sense, which he had trained for many years, told him that this was definitely an explosive piece of news! Windsor Belo's last sentence was almost a joke. Who wouldn't want to be her student? If she could become Marshal Greed's disciple, even an idiot would know that this was a chance to become famous overnight and her status would soar. Even Mobie didn't know about Windsor Belo's intentions to recruit disciples.

When the assistant to the president quietly told the guests at the banquet that Mobius knew about the news, Mobius was stunned for two seconds before he smiled and said goodbye.

The news spread across the streets of Babylon, and the entire island exploded. As Windsor Belo had indicated that she would choose her students from the Blades of Dawn, the flying cars with the family badge flew to the campus that night and picked up all the young masters and young ladies of her family. Of course, Alan was no exception.

After being taken back to Castle Ugarte overnight, Helsing brought him directly to Horn's study. Horn was still attending a dinner party at the Capitol, but it was reported that he was already on his way. Apparently, he was rushing back quickly to discuss with Alan about taking in the female marshal.
