Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 301: Release Conference

Looking at the window, Hyderick chuckled. He drank all the black tea in the cup, put the cup in the cup and saucer by the window, picked up the pen and drawing plate with his hand, and waved his brush freely on the canvas. As the brush rose and fell, the canvas gradually became more skimmed. At this moment, the door to the studio was knocked on. The door opened and Arthur walked in with a book in his hand.

Seeing the smile on Hyderick's face, the youth pushed his glasses and said, "Father, you're in a good mood today."

"Of course, I have no reason to be in a bad mood when I think that Lanny's son will come back with a sad face today." '"What about you, Arthur? You haven't seemed to move since Alan came back." Heidrick laughed twice and restrained himself.

"Grandpa, watch closely. Father, I don't want to do anything that the old man suspects." Arthur smiled and the morning light fell on him through the window. The reflection of the lenses made it impossible to see the youth's expression clearly behind the glasses.

Hyderick's brush suddenly stopped and his expression turned cold. Then he eased up a little and waved his hand, "Come and take a look. How about this painting?"

Arthur followed suit.

The painting is nearing completion and you can see the main composition of the picture landing on a tall tower. Hyderick looked up to express the tower. The people below the tower were crowded, and the spires were hidden in the sunlight. There were a few pillars of light that were like swords that broke through the space of the picture, giving people the feeling of tearing through restrictions. One could see a figure on the tower. Although that figure was small, it was the center of the entire scene.

Without a doubt, the theme Hyderick wanted to express was completely focused on that unremarkable figure. Upon closer inspection, the figure was opening his arms, as if he was listening to the voices of the people below the tower.

Arthur glanced at Hyderick, and the image of his father standing on the tower floated in his heart. He opened his arms and listened to the cheers below the tower. The tower represented power, and it was not hard to see Hyderick's ambitions in the painting.

The youth lowered his head and said, "I don't understand, father."

"Is that so? I thought you were better at painting than Kodorf." Heidrick waved his hand. "Go to Venus. Remember to record the disappointment of that bitch's son. I want to taste it carefully."

"Understood."

Arthur retreated, and Hyderick's handsome face suddenly twisted.

'"Damn old thing, why do you care so much about that woman? It used to be Lanny, but now it's Ellen! My mother is your wife, and we are your true bloodline. Lanny and Ellen are just bastards. I wish I could kill them when I thought of how despicable blood was flowing in Bescot's veins!" Hyderick suddenly tore the painting to pieces and laughed nervously, "Old man, can't you hear Beth Cod's bloodline crying? It doesn't matter. If you don't hear, let me clean up the dirty blood on your behalf."

After pushing the easel to the ground, Hyderick took a deep breath and left the studio.

In a corner of the castle opposite the studio, Anna walked out from behind the steeple. She looked at the studio opposite and shook her head.

Venus Hotel.

When Alan followed Horn into the lobby of the hotel, the lobby manager rushed over as fast as he could. Today, he was destined to be busy. Whether it was Beth Cod or Grant, they were all monsters. The manager's job today was to take care of the two families. Horn patted Allen and said, "I won't go to the exhibition hall with you. Go yourself. Hughton should be here."

On the top floor of the hotel, a banquet will be held at noon to accommodate guests attending the press conference. The banquet was jointly hosted by the two families. As the half host, Horn, that was his stage. As for the success or failure of the press conference, he didn't care too much about it. This was also the amount of equipment that a clan leader should have. Similarly, Grant's family would also appear there. For Horn, there was another war waiting for him.

A war that belonged to him alone.

Alan brought his suitcase to the showroom rented by Beth Cod. Hughton and a few assistants were already preparing for the release of the new product. Guests entered the hall one after another. Because Venus Hotel had installed a projection curtain wall on the upper and lower floors that could be broadcast live today, the number of guests in the two floors of the hall was basically the same. Anyway, you can see the products released by the two companies on either floor, so the guests are happy not to offend any of the families.

However, after the new product was displayed, it was time to place the order. At that time, it was the time for the two clans to truly fight.

At this moment, in Grant's hall, Lawrence seemed to be ready for the release of the new product. After the host said a few formal words, he went straight to the main topic. However, the first thing he took out was not Lawrence's work, but some conventional weapons. However, these weapons were of high quality. In addition to Lawrence's living signature as a Sequence Master, they gave these conventional weapons a lot of points.

"The next item to be displayed is a Second Grade Devil Martial Arts. Please allow me to introduce it to everyone." The host opened a long suitcase with a white gloved hand and took out a long saber from it, "Flame Soul, Second Grade Demonic Martial Arts." Its blade was made of nanometer heavy silver, a new material developed by Grant family, and its blade was thin and sharp. More importantly, due to the effect of the 'Flame Blade' sequence, the blade could produce astonishing heat, allowing it to easily cut through the armor. "It can be said that with the Flame Soul, one can increase one's combat strength by several tens of percent out of thin air."

The host drew out his long saber. Under the sheath of the black-colored saber, the blade of the Flame Soul's saber was a passionate dark red color. There were a few fine hair-like lines wrapped around the blade, which could process the energy conduction lines to such a detail and ensure the stability of the origin energy transmission. In this respect alone, the production capacity of Grant can be seen. When the host activated the saber patterns, Flame Soul's blade immediately lit up, flowing with a bright red light.

The red light lit up, and the temperature of the venue immediately rose a little. The host casually waved the blade, leaving behind a few flame shadows in the air.

"This is a work designed by Young Master Diego. It has both practical and collectable value. Personally, I believe that even if the Flame Soul is not used on the battlefield, it will still be a good collection." The host ended the introduction of the weapon with a cold joke.

The usefulness and value of the Flame Soul were secondary. This exhibition of Diego's works was designed to convey the message to outsiders that the Grant Clan would have a future Sequence Master. This information itself was much more valuable than the Flame Soul. That meant that the Grant Clan would have an endless supply of magical energy weapons in the next 30 years.

Adding on Lawrence, the current master of sequences, the effects would not be as simple as one plus one.

Next, Lawrence's work finally came on stage. On the projection curtain wall of the hall, the display of Beth Cod's new products also began. Beth Cod didn't have a host, and Hughton personally appeared in the scene. Behind him, Alan could be seen working on something on the scene. However, everyone's gazes were attracted to Hughton, but no one paid attention to Alan behind him.

The first thing Hughton took out was a rifle.

Fire Fighting Rifle.

As a secret that had already been revealed, the Blackfire Rifle could be said to be familiar to everyone. This gun didn't have too many bright spots. It lowered the standards for the use of Origin Energy. As long as some weapon dealers could sacrifice their interests, they could also produce such a product. It was only Allen who was in the lead, and Sirius, one of the Federation's trump cards, was the first to use it, that made the rifle much more colorful.

Hence, when Hughton showed off his Flame Fighting Rifle as a new product, many people revealed puzzled gazes and almost started to heckle.

When Hughton took out the Honor Barrier, most of the guests had already shook their heads. As the most popular clan in recent years, even without a master town like Lawrence, Beth Cod shouldn't use the Fiery Rifle and Honor Barrier as a display of new products without sincerity. This would damage the reputation of a large clan.

Looking at the curtain wall, Diego couldn't help but laugh coldly and said to Lawrence, "Teacher, it looks like Beth Cod is done. He actually used these things that are already in use as new products. They are smashing their own signboards."

"Today, we will definitely win!"

Lawrence frowned and looked at Hughton on the curtain wall. Based on his knowledge of Hughton, no matter how inferior the man who studied with him back then was, he wouldn't be able to use such equipment as a menacing flame rifle to fill the scene. At this moment, as if Hughton had sensed something, he smiled at the center of the screen, as if he was smiling at Lawrence.

Lawrence suddenly thought of something, and his body trembled as he whispered, "Could it be that they "

The guests in Bescord's hall were already heckling. After Hughton took out two consecutive old works, some of the guests even prepared to leave the arena. If it weren't for the courtesy, someone might have questioned loudly. "Everyone," Hughton said, "calm down. That's right, as you can see. Firearms and the Honor Barrier are no longer anything new, but would Beth Cod really use such a thing to perfunctory people?"

These words were of great use, and the guests who had originally intended to leave also turned their heads, ready to hear what Hughton had to say.

Hugh chuckled and turned around. At the back, Alan placed a set of magic energy armor on the display platform. In front of the armor, there was a device that looked like a miniature reactor. The lines on the armor spread out, and it was unknown what effect they had. Under the spotlight, Allen said calmly, "Everyone, look, what Beth Cod is going to show today is not any specific magical equipment. It's a completely new concept. This device is called a fusion matrix, and it doesn't have the ability to produce anything. It has only one function, and that is to integrate the original components and create new capabilities through the first set of conductive patterns. "

'"I call it a set ability. Right now, the three components of the set are displayed in front of everyone. The Flame Fighting Rifle, the Honor Barrier, and the Mana Armor embedded in the Fusion Matrix are a complete set of Flame Fighting Weapons!"
