After cleaning up the battlefield, everyone was in low spirits. They had to think about it seriously! Strategically, it was right to look down on the enemy, but tactically, they had to pay attention to the enemy. No wonder mages had a higher status than warriors of the same level. The tenth-grade mage Woodrow was not here, but the influence he radiated could still determine the life and death of some people. Borg used the magic staff Woodrow made for him to kill Morrisons in an instant, and then the female warrior used a magic scroll to escape, leaving them disappointed!
There was also the matter of spies in the army. They had to think carefully about countermeasures. If they were too strict, it would be bad for the morale of the army. If they were too lax, then they would no longer have any secrets.
Lang Ning was very busy. On one hand, he had to prepare for the expedition, and on the other hand, he had to contact the other generals of Riptide. On the other hand, Léger wanted to pull some people from the military law team to form a separate organization to deal with potential spies. Léger was not interested in military affairs, but he showed a certain degree of enthusiasm for this kind of thing.
In comparison, Han Jin and the others were very relaxed. Those who were practicing swordsmanship did so, those who were meditating did so, and those who were secretly eating magic crystals ate as much as they could.
One day, a soldier suddenly came to report that the castellan of the west side of the city, Winston, had arrived. Logically, Han Jin, Léger and the others should have gone out to join in the fun. However, the soldier reported that there was a person with an imposing aura beside Winston. It was a Knight in heavy armor. Even the horses that were jumping around would avoid him when they saw him. Han Jin immediately thought of someone, Gerald!
Now, no one dared to go out. It was not that they were afraid of Gerald. If thousands of Knights swarmed him, he would be exhausted to death, but it was not necessary! The current situation was very complicated. Killing Gerald would only benefit Zagunéd and Woodrow. Han Jin's goal was to maintain the balance between them and let them continue to fight.
Moreover, everyone's view of this bloody Knight with a bad reputation had changed. Sunier used to hate Gerald because she had heard about his deeds. However, on that day, Gerald's imposing aura was fascinating. Facing the vampires that came like a dark cloud, he looked disdainfully and fearlessly. He held up the defense line of the west side of the city with only one person and one spear.
That was a fierce battle. The cavalry brigade also received the battle report. Gerald was not only cruel to his enemies, but also to himself. At the most critical moment, he was besieged by a group of vampires, including the Ghost King Caroline. He was wounded several times, but he still refused to retreat. It was all because of Gerald that the governor of the west side of the city, Winston, was able to rebuild the defense line in a hurry and finally defeat the vampires.
It was hard to deny that it was hard to find a completely evil person in the world. Even a butcher like Gerald had his shining points. It was said that after the vampires were defeated, the west side of the city was filled with cheers. Countless soldiers, including the residents of the west side of the city, regarded Gerald as their hero. Even in Gerald's hometown, the Holy Crown City, people were afraid of Gerald. Who would have thought that he would become a hero in people's hearts after he came to the west side of the Beitman City as an emissary? Sometimes things in the world were so funny. It was a pity that no one knew what Gerald was thinking at that time. Was he stunned? Did he not know whether to laugh or cry? Or was he moved?
However, Winston came and left quickly. He only exchanged a few words with Lang Ning, checked the military supplies, and then left the camp in a hurry. Han Jin was confused at first. Was Lang Ning so trustworthy? But soon, he figured it out. Since Woodrow could plant his own people in Riptide, how could Winston not do anything? He must have his own people in the army. He must have known about these things long ago. He came to the camp just to verify it himself.
The sun rose and set, and the moon waxed and waned. The Ninth Town became more and more lively. Troops came from afar and were stationed around the Ninth Town. Han Jin and the others could not get involved in some things. Now the soldiers of the First Cavalry Battalion were familiar with them, but the soldiers of other troops would inevitably feel disgusted, especially the generals. They could obey Léger and Lang Ning, but if Han Jin wanted to stand in front of them and give orders, it would be very unpleasant.
Therefore, Han Jin never asked about the affairs of the army. As long as Lang Ning was there, there would be no trouble. He put all his energy into cultivation.
At the beginning, he could only absorb dozens of yuan of energy a day. But now, the energy he absorbed every day was calculated in terms of 'armor', which was thousands of times more than before.
During these days, he had absorbed more than half of the more than five hundred level three magic crystals of earth element. The inconspicuous black raven magic crystals had all been used up, so there was a space in the space ring. But he did not make the Five Ghosts Carrying Spell. Just like he wanted to accumulate all the fire elements to make the Three True Fire Charm, he hoped to release more advanced 'dark magic' in the future.
Now, he still had two magical crystals of the Earth Bear and two magical crystals of the Tree Demon in his spatial ring. Although they were all earth-type magical crystals, they were still relics of magical beasts of the eighth rank. There was too much energy in them. Even though he had reached the Great Foundation Establishment and entered the Xuan realm, he still had to practice for a long time before he could absorb them.
What was left were three magic crystals of the Flash Leopard, two magic crystals of the Giant Lizard, and more than forty magic crystals of the Gale Wolf. Looking at these, Han Jin could not help but think of those cute bulls. Without their selfless help, he could not have accumulated so many things.
However, facts had proven that relying on self-reliance would never make one rich! What was the best way? Doing business! Or plundering! Han Jin had done business before. In the deep underground city, a small piece of horse meat could be exchanged for one or even several magic crystals. How much could a few people get after hunting hard in the forest? In the underground city, he had exchanged for more than three hundred level six fire element magic crystals and more than sixty level six water element magic crystals! The former had to work hard every day, while the latter was as easy as blowing off dust.
Han Jin found a problem that he had to face. Among these magic crystals, the worst magic crystal of the Gale Wolf was level five, and he could not absorb them yet. When the remaining two hundred level three earth element magic crystals were used up, he would run out of food …
He walked out of the door, turned left, and came to a room. He knocked a few times, and without waiting for the person inside to speak, he pushed the door open and walked in. It was a little impolite, but he was used to it. Because even if he was polite to someone, they would still look at him strangely.
Inside, Sunier and Lang Ning were sitting opposite each other, whispering something. Han Jin smiled apologetically and turned to leave. Sunier called out, "Raphael!"
"You talk, I'll come to you later."
"Lord Raphael, we've finished talking." Lang Ning smiled, "Actually, it's nothing much. Our army will set off in a few days, so I came to ask Lord Sunier about the situation in Black Raven City."
"How do you know about the situation in Black Raven City?" Han Jin asked in surprise. Even a wise man would make mistakes. Han Jin's words sounded reasonable, but after thinking about it carefully, it was a little confusing. Was it more important that the army set off in a few days? Or was it more important that Sunier knew about the situation in Black Raven City?
"Where did we meet for the first time?" Sunier rolled her eyes at Han Jin.
Han Jin suddenly remembered the scene where Sunier was chased by countless black crows. Later, she also explained that she went to Black Raven City to find a friend.
"Ah … I remember now."
"Then I won't disturb you." Lang Ning stood up with a smile, nodded to Han Jin and Sunier, and walked out.
Looking at Han Jin, who sat down with a smile, Sunier couldn't help but feel a little bitter. She didn't dislike Han Jin, but she didn't like him either. She just had a good impression of him and was curious about him. Han Jin's appearance was very handsome in the human world, but compared to the elves, he was very ordinary. Therefore, Sunier didn't care about his appearance.
She thought that Han Jin was very smart, but not scheming. He treated his companions with sincerity. He had a sense of justice, but was not pedantic. When he could save people, he would help, and when he should kill, he would not hesitate. In fact, in this troubled world, it was already very good that he could trust, take care of his companions, and never betray them! Especially that day, when they were surrounded by the Knight of the Holy Crown City, Han Jin insisted on staying and let them go first. She still couldn't forget that lonely and stubborn back of Han Jin. Although she knew later that he could escape, his back was engraved in her heart, and that was why she liked him.
As for her curiosity, it was easy to understand. The magic released by Han Jin was so perfect that she had never heard of such magic in the world. She had asked Stillberg several times about Han Jin's past, but Stillberg just kept smirking and didn't say anything. When she was pushed, he would yell and ask Sunier to ask him herself. Sunier couldn't do anything about it.
However, curiosity was the most important thing between a man and a woman. Only curiosity could arouse interest, and only with interest could the future be created. It was hard to imagine what kind of story could happen between a man and a woman who didn't even have the slightest curiosity about him. Unfortunately, Sunier didn't understand this.
However, in this small team, everyone's attitude was somewhat inexplicable. For example, Lang Ning, did he need to explain what he was doing here? Thinking of this, Sunier felt a little angry.
Because of her affection and curiosity, she didn't reject Han Jin. Because of her character and identity, she wouldn't take the initiative to do anything, or to make someone happy. To break this situation, only Han Jin could take the initiative. But Han Jin seemed to be too careless! If he didn't mean anything else, why did he do those embarrassing things that were full of ambiguity in the eyes of others? If he had that kind of intention, why didn't he ask her to go out or buy her a small gift? Sunier certainly wouldn't covet those things. She just did it for a feeling.
"What's the matter?" Sunier asked softly. She was already prepared. As long as Han Jin expressed his feelings seriously, even if it was very subtle, she would give Han Jin a chance. This man was very good in all aspects. He was responsible. His strength was probably the weakest among the elite members, but he always tried to protect others. He was ambitious. At least, Sunier had never thought of becoming a lord. He was smart. The current situation was created by Han Jin. He had many other advantages. Most importantly, he had a future! When she shared that secret with him, she already knew that as long as Han Jin was given time, his future would be unimaginably strong! Of course, Han Jin also had his shortcomings. He would always go to the bar with Morrisons. But all men were the same. She just needed to take care of him and change his bad habits.
Sunier's face suddenly turned red. What was she thinking?! Fortunately, under the cover of the mask, no one could see that she was different.
"It's like this." Han Jin smiled. "My magic crystals are almost used up. We …"
"So be it. What does it have to do with me?" Sunier was extremely disappointed. She couldn't help but say coldly.
"Ah …" Han Jin was stunned.
