Apocalypse - Evil Shelter System-Chapter 333 Colony

The commander spoke disdainfully, and Alex gritted his teeth. Didn't the Noah computer know about this? "Alright, you win this time. You said there were conditions, let's hear them," Alex said, arms crossed and face expressionless as he looked at the commander. He didn't understand how this invader wanted to cooperate with him.

"It's not exactly asking for your help, it's more like a mutual enemy we both have." "Oh?" Alex raised an eyebrow, signaling the commander to continue.

"There's another force on your planet, aside from us. They are far stronger than we are," the commander said slowly. Alex's expression immediately became serious. As the sole powerful owner of this planet, how could there be so many alien civilizations on his planet that he knew nothing about?

"Who are they?" Alex asked in a deep voice. "I don't know exactly, but they possess the power to destroy everything," the commander continued slowly. After hearing this, Alex fell silent, his brow furrowing. He vaguely felt there must be some conspiracy at play.

The group of aliens the commander mentioned couldn't be as simple as he described; there definitely was something fishy going on. "This world is not as wonderful as you imagine," the commander seemed to see through Alex's thoughts and abruptly spoke up.

"Hmm?" Alex was slightly surprised. Could there be other secrets he wasn't aware of? "Perhaps you don't know, but this planet you inhabit is actually considered a discarded planet, once a colony of our civilization."

"And originally, our civilization occupied ninety percent of that planet's land and mineral resources," the commander continued. "However, after our civilization fell, for various reasons, that planet was completely abandoned." "Even the soil and minerals were severely contaminated and became unusable." The commander sighed wistfully, as if lost in memories of the past.

"So what? You called me here today just to tell me this nonsense?" Alex scoffed, his impatience evident.

"No, I can tell you where those people are located, but I don't know if you have the courage to go there," the commander said seriously, his eyes sparkling with intensity.

"What do you mean by that?" Alex's expression changed, and he spoke in a cold tone.

"The creatures that have mutated are too powerful; even our current technology cannot compare to them. If you go, you'll only get thrashed," the commander said deliberately, his tone full of mockery.

Alex clenched his fists and remained silent.

"If you're scared, you can refuse my proposal," the commander's mouth curled into a faint, teasing smile as he spoke lightly.

"I don't even know how to spell 'fear,'" Alex retorted coldly, then turned to leave, curious to see what the commander was really up to.

"You're not just going to back down like that, are you?" The commander's voice followed hauntingly, causing Alex to pause momentarily.

"I'm not as weak as you think," Alex muttered under his breath, then continued walking away.

The commander snickered, neither agreeing nor disagreeing, then shifted his gaze to Alex's retreating figure, his eyes filled with intense hatred.

"You can't escape; you will never escape from the palm of my hand," the commander murmured. The enemy Alex was about to face was one even he dared not confront directly. Going there was tantamount to a suicide mission for Alex.

Meanwhile, Alex had already arrived at the coordinates provided by the commander. Looking up, a gigantic black castle appeared in the seemingly endless sky above. The sheer size of such a colossal structure floating in the air was enough to startle even Alex.

"If only I had wings, I could fly up there and see it all clearly," Alex muttered to himself.

Just then, a streak of white light flashed across the sky, followed by a massive spaceship descending directly down. As it landed, the hatch swung open.

Alex cautiously looked around before carefully stepping into the spaceship. As soon as he entered, a pungent odor assaulted his senses, causing him to wrinkle his brow. The smell inside the spaceship was strangely off-putting.

After adjusting to the interior environment of the spaceship, Alex slowly made his way deeper inside. Although he didn't know exactly what to expect, fear was not part of Alex's vocabulary.

Just as he ventured further, a shadow abruptly charged at him. Alex quickly extended his fist to meet the oncoming threat.

"Boom!" The fists collided, and Alex felt his whole body repelled back several meters, nearly falling to the ground.

"What the hell is this thing!" Alex rubbed his right hand and roared in anger.

The creature that had attacked him was entirely red, resembling a lump of charred coal, emitting a strong, foul smell. Suddenly, the shadow fiercely opened its gaping mouth, revealing sharp fangs, and lunged at Alex, ready to bite.

Alex's pupils suddenly contracted, and he hurriedly dodged, but it was still half a beat too slow. His arm was scratched open, blood flowing out and staining his clothes red.

"Hisss…"

Alex sucked in a breath of cold air in pain, then glared angrily at the shadow before charging at it again.

His movements were as fast as lightning, and soon he threw another punch hard at the shadow's head.

"Bang!"

The punch landed squarely on the shadow's head, eliciting a wail from it as its body shook a few times before collapsing on the ground.

"Phew! Finally dealt with."

Alex breathed a sigh of relief and then squatted on the ground, wiping the sweat from his forehead.

The recent battle had drained quite a bit of his energy.

"What the hell is this thing?"

Alex muttered, his gaze falling on the shadow lying on the ground. He noticed something resembling a crystal core on its chest, emitting a faint red glow.

Alex reached out to touch the crystal core, but was repelled by a strange force.

"There's something off about this thing."

Alex frowned, then pulled a dagger from his coat.

The dagger gleamed with a cold light, and the handle bore a ferocious skull that could make one's heart skip a beat. freeweɓnovel.cøm

This was a Soul Eater Dagger, a fine treasure Alex had purchased from the Mercenary Guild.

"Crack!"

Holding the Soul Eater Dagger, Alex then slashed open the shadow's throat. Bright red liquid gushed out, and Alex quickly stepped aside to dodge the spraying blood.

"Drip… Drip… Drip…"

The crimson blood slowly spread across the ground.

"Hmm?"
