Edge of the Apocalypse

From a distance, Alan and Adele have a close relationship, which can be seen at a glance. Leon retracted his gaze and laughed faintly. Going to the corner, waved to call a bodyguard in a full-pay suit: "Go, look up this Ellen's background, I need to know the answer in 5 minutes."

The bodyguard was ordered to go.

The banquet was still going on, and Allen noticed that today’s banquet was mostly young people. The oldest is no more than 25 years old, and the youngest is even seven or eight-year-old children. Obviously this banquet was held for the young dignitaries in Babylon. Even Alan saw Kodoff and Reina. He knows how to avoid that corner, so as not to overlap with his two brothers too much. After all, Reiner can see himself uncomfortable, and if it happens at the banquet, it will embarrass Bethkod.

"Leon's father is Wallace, the hottest successor to the William family. There are five sons and three daughters under Wallace. Leon ranks third, because he looks like Wallace and he is quite spoiled. This aroused dissatisfaction with the eldest son Paul and the second son of Vallaus. Vallaus is interested in training Leon as his successor. According to family regulations, Leon will be 17 years old next year. It is time to serve the family and expedition. Outland. So before that, he hopes to maximize his influence and get the support of the children of our celebrities." Adele picked up a piece of cake and bit his mouth, and continued: "So he only needs to reach You can participate in family management after returning to the outer battlefield. You see, the so-called nobles are such a group of disgusting vampires. We squeeze the blood of the lower classes, and they can’t resist. But above us, there are bigger things. Disgusting monsters. When they ask for blood, we can only offer them obediently. So... we are all just maggots crawling up on a pile of carrion."

Seeing the disgusting look in Adele's eyes, Alan thoughtfully said: "I think the battlefield of the Outland is an obligation that every family member must perform."

After spending more than half a year in the Blade of Dawn, Allen has a general understanding of the family and some ancient obligations. It's just obvious that he doesn't know enough.

"You just joined Beskod. I don't know that some of the tricks are normal." Adele picked up another cookie and threw it into her mouth: "The structure of the noble family is a bit like a honeycomb, and the side branch is worker bees. They are responsible for building the nest. , Maintain and ensure the normal operation of the hive. The direct line is the warrior, and they must fulfill a series of obligations such as protecting the family and opening up."

"Outland warfare is one of them, and the rules of each family are slightly different. But basically after being an adult, the direct children must go to the outer field battlefield. Not only perform duties for the family, but also a kind of experience. No one has ever been on the battlefield. Damn, what qualifications do you have to manage the family?" Adele shrugged and said, "But there are also many ways of doing things. You have to know that there are many children in each family. A father has seven or eight children under his knees. It's normal, and no father likes all his children, so he is thrown directly on the battlefield of the outer domain if he is displeased with some people, or if he doesn't do much. If they can come back alive, they will become more or less so. Value. If you die, no one will feel heartache."

"Furthermore, the Outland Battlefield is just a general term. You know, there are actually two star regions inside. The Jotun star field is where the people of chaos are. The Nim people who invaded the earth hundreds of years ago came from Joton. Star Territory. The war there has stopped at the last moment. The aliens in the Yoton Star Territory have conquered each other, and also fought against us and the Idahua star, so it’s called the Battlefield of Chaos. If it’s the first brother who just went to the outer space To be thrown into the chaotic battlefield, it is almost dead."

"In addition to the Yorton star field, there is another star field Rusen. Lusen is a young and lively star field. The Idahua star people discovered it and worked with us to develop the star field. Most of them. Family children entering the outer field battlefield will be sent to this relatively mild star field. After all, most of the planets in that star field are not as civilized as ours. It is relatively easy to turn them into colonial stars." Adele said here, hum He said: "Unfortunately, going to Outland is limited to men in the family. As for our daughters, most of us are acting as political victims. But I always think of ways to go to Outland. When I have my own colonial star, hum Humph……"

At this time, the band's music came to an end. People thought that the music was about to restart, but they couldn't hear the music for a long time, and everyone was surprised at the moment. The main lights on the dome of the banquet hall were also turned off one by one, and then the beams of several spotlights gathered on the stage after several rounds in the hall. However, on the stage, the singer who sang has gone, and Leon took his place.

Seeing him standing on the stage with a smile on his face, people knew that he had something to say, so they all put down the wine glass and dinner bowl in their hands and moved around.

"Everyone, I'm very happy to have you attend tonight's banquet, really. Otherwise, my father would definitely say it. Look, the guy Leon said all day about how wide his exchanges are, and he came to hold a banquet. Joining together, do you dare to brag after seeing this kid?" Leon learned his father's words, humorous and funny, making the guests under the stage laugh.

Of course, how many of these are laughs from the heart, and how many are just for the face of the noble son on the stage, it is not known.

"It's true, there is another thing that makes me so happy tonight. Because Miss Adele from the Morsen family is also here!"

Following Leon's words, two beams of light lay down, and after a few rounds among the guests, they focused on Alan and Adele. The crowd around them naturally separated, leaving them alone. Allen frowned slightly and told him instinctively that Leon had something to do.

He glanced at Adele, who seemed afraid to touch his gaze, and lowered his gaze slightly.

Allen was more puzzled.

"I'm almost 17 years old. Everyone knows that when you reach the prescribed age, you must go to the Outland Battlefield. That is the stage to show our abilities, and it is also a family duty that each of us must fulfill. But in the family duty, we have one more thing. The obligation that needs to be fulfilled is the continuation of blood. My father hopes that I can get married and have children before going to Outland. This is an imminent event." At this point, Leon stretched out his hand and waved in Adele's direction: "I have always liked it. It's been a long time since Dai'er, her eclectic style has attracted me deeply. So in the invitation letter sent to Miss Adele, I also left a proposal to marry me. Originally, I had already done it by Miss Adele. Prepare to refuse, but she is still here!"

There was an exclamation immediately in the meeting place, and Adele looked at Alan with a guilty conscience, who glared at her. At this point, Allen finally understood the whole thing. It turns out that Leon proposed to Adele, but Adele didn't want to marry Leon, but she didn't want to refuse it hard. So I found myself, a cheap lover, and planned to let Leon get away.

In the whole thing, only Alan was kept in the dark. Adele didn't tell the truth, which made him feel like he was being used.

At the sight of Allen, Adele trembled slightly, lowered her head not to look at him, like a little girl doing something wrong.

Leon’s conversation turned: "What surprised me is that Miss Adele is not alone today. She also brought another person, who is said to be her lover. I would like to ask Mr. Allen, how long have you been dating? ?"

"Alan?"

"Allen!"

It was a series of exclaims, although in the recent combat skills assessment, Alan's performance did not look good to outsiders. But after all, he passed the first round of Windsor Bello's assessment. This matter was widely spread in the aristocratic circle, so he naturally knew the name Allen.

Cordov and Renner also whispered quietly, but they didn't expect that their own cousin would also be there, and he would still be present as Adele's lover!

But Leon didn’t give Allen a chance to answer, he still said with a spring breeze: "I want to ask Mr. Allen to forgive me and recognize you before and at the end. How can you say that you are also the limelight in Babylon now, but I already have some Time did not pay attention to the news of Babylon, so I didn’t know that you, the winner of the death ring, the lucky person invited by Chief Horn, and the students appointed by Marshal Windsor Bellow, came here~www.wuxiaspot.com~ His words surfaced. It sounds polite, but it's actually quite arrogant, meaning that Allen is not worthy of his attention at all.

"Now, Mr. Allen is still Adele's lover, which really makes me both envious and jealous. But as long as Miss Adele is not officially married, I think every gentleman has the opportunity to pursue her. Even if she already has a lover. Everyone said, right?"

The people on the venue are not fools. Even though Allen is in the limelight recently, Leon is a noble son born with a golden key. There is almost no choice to be on whose side. Suddenly people shouted in unison: "Yes."

Leon stretched out his hand and gestured for everyone to be quiet before looking at Allen: "I don't like to be sloppy. Let's go, Mr. Allen, we are going to a duel between the Cavaliers. Those who lose will not be allowed to fight Adele in the future. What do you think? And to show fairness, I will limit the level of power to the same level as you. Of course, you can refuse it."

Adele sighed, she was almost certain that Allen would refuse. From the look in her eyes just now, she had already seen that Allen was disgusted with herself. What's more, he can't commit to offending the son of William's family, after all, Allen represents Bethcade. Leon was also aware of this, and he was pleased to challenge.

"The first point, Adele is not a commodity. She decides who she likes, not who can decide who wins and who loses!"

When Allen's voice sounded, Adele could hardly believe her ears. She looked at Ellen, who had already taken two steps forward, her eyes bursting into her eyes, her bright red eyes rising like flames: "The second point, I want to ask Mr. Leon. The challenge for you is yes. Only representing you, or the William family?"

Speaking of this, Allen smiled freely: "If it's the latter, then I just slap my **** and give up."
