It didn't take long before Hogan followed Sunier into the room. Hogan was shocked to see Harley floating in the air. Of course, he knew that it was a dark creature.
"Master, you were looking for me?" Hogan hurriedly lowered his head and asked timidly.
"Your subordinates have all put on the Halo of Restraint?" Han Jin still had a lazy expression on his face. The Halo of Restraint he was talking about was the headband that the slaves wore. It was said that the ice mages of Cold Shadow City invented it. It could be said that the Halo of Restraint was a very vicious magic tool. When they first learned about the effects of the Halo of Will, Morrisons, Sassoux, and the others, including Han Jin and Gibran, all felt their scalps tingle!
There was nothing strange about the outer ring, but the key was the two crystal nails that were half a finger long and could explode at any time! When the mages of Cold Shadow City put the headband on the captives, they would drive the two crystal nails into the captives' heads. From this, it could be seen that the mages of Cold Shadow City were not only proficient in the art of puppetry, but also had a great understanding of the human body structure. Two nails that were half a finger long would not kill the captives, nor would it affect their daily activities. However, the warriors could no longer release combat energy, and the mages could no longer gather magic. Otherwise, the crystal nails would immediately explode.
Moreover, as long as the Ring of Inhibition was worn, it was difficult to take it off. According to Hogan, along the way, dozens of slaves would die every day because they tried to take off the Ring of Inhibition. After the crystal nail was fixed, it would not cause pain, but if one wanted to use violence to remove or cut off the headband, the crystal nail would move slightly and cause fatal damage. In fact, the success rate of putting on the Halo of Restraint was not 100%. If ten slaves were put on the Halo of Restraint, there would always be one or two slaves who would die on the spot. The location of the crystal nails had to be precise, and the process of inserting the crystal nails had to be done with full concentration. There could not be any mistakes.
Using this method to control the slaves was too cruel. This made Morrisons and the others' impression of Cold Shadow City even worse.
"Yes, Master," Hogan replied in a low voice.
Han Jin was silent for a moment before he nodded. "You've done well. Come here."
Hogan walked over submissively until he was less than two meters away from Han Jin and stood there obediently.
"Raise your head and look at me."
Hogan was stunned and raised his head to look at Han Jin. Their gazes collided. Hogan was a little timid and wanted to shift his gaze elsewhere, but Han Jin's eyes seemed to have an attractive force that firmly attracted his attention.
"Snatch!" Han Jin shouted, and a dazzling white light shot out, hitting Hogan's eyes.
Hogan opened his mouth in shock. He suddenly felt that his mind was not clear, and the rhythm of his thinking became very slow. He wanted to say 'Master, what's wrong?' However, he actually forgot how to pronounce those words. He wanted to smile, but he didn't know how to control his muscles. At this moment, Harley's body turned into a line of smoke and entered Hogan's mouth.
Hogan's body trembled violently, and his face turned green and white. After a moment, one of his pupils turned a strange red, but his body's reaction gradually calmed down.
"Now, do you have anything to tell me?" Han Jin asked calmly.
Hogan showed a pained expression. His lips opened and closed like a thirsty fish. It looked like he wanted to say something, but didn't want to.
After a while, Hogan smiled and said, "Master, you have to be careful of those magicians from Cold Shadow City."
"Be careful of them?" Han Jin sneered. "Why should I be careful of them?"
"They aren't affected by the Halo of Restraint."
"Oh?"
"I put the Halo of Restraint on them myself. No one knows it better than me, hehe …" Hogan showed a flattering smile. "In the beginning, I purposely made a mistake and let the crystal nail explode on the spot. Aiya, a person's head was blown apart, and his brain was splattered all over the ground. This scene … Tsk tsk, that magician called Yalina couldn't bear to watch anymore, so she left. Only that big idiot called Morrisons was left. What could he understand? I broke the crystal nail a long time ago. In fact, the Halo of Restraint worn by those magicians had no effect at all. "
"That's it?" Han Jin's expression was calm. He already expected that those magicians from Cold Shadow City wouldn't be honest. Hogan's confession only confirmed his guess, so there was nothing to be surprised about.
"There's more." Hogan remembered something. "Those magicians have already discussed and decided to escape together tomorrow night."
"This is Isolated Cliff City, where can they escape to?"
"As long as they can escape outside the city, the gargoyles will meet them."
"Gargoyles? Looks like you're involved too? "
"Of course, if it weren't for my help, they wouldn't have the guts to escape!" Hogan said in a boastful tone, his face full of pride.
Han Jin looked at Hogan quietly. Maybe it was because he no longer had any reservations, or maybe it was because he was still in a daze, but this time, Hogan no longer avoided Han Jin's gaze. He smiled and met Han Jin's gaze.
"You go and kill them all." Han Jin said in a low voice.
"Yes, Master," Hogan said without hesitation, then walked out of the room.
"Is this … dark magic?" Sunier asked with difficulty.
Han Jin was just about to speak when a shout came from outside. "Not good! Master Raphael … "As soon as he finished, Saxon burst open the door, panting.
"What's the matter?" Han Jin asked in surprise. Although Winston didn't attract as much attention as Gibran, it was just a matter of attitude. In fact, the battle experience of the Reaper Mercenary Team was no less than that of Gibran's Red Vanguards. It was definitely not a small matter to make Saxon like this!
"You … when you were on a mission last time, didn't you … didn't you leave that lady's house with the Mercenary Association?"
"Slow down, don't rush," Han Jin asked tentatively. "Sylvia?"
"Yes, yes! It's Miss Sylvia's house. The Mercenary Association returned it to the Morrisons a long time ago, but since you're all living here, there's no one to look after it. It's already winter, and the homeless are freezing, but they don't care about anything. The people of the Mercenary Association are afraid that the homeless will go in and cause trouble, so they've been sending a few mercenaries to take turns looking after it, in case Miss Sylvia comes back and causes trouble. "
"And then?"
"This afternoon, an old man and a young man suddenly walked into Miss Sylvia's house. I don't know what happened, but when the mercenaries went up to question them, they were all taught a lesson. Then Sir Juventus hurried over, but …" Saxon smiled bitterly. "Sir Juventus also suffered a loss!"
"Suffered a loss?"
"Yes, I was there and saw it with my own eyes. That old man was like … like playing with a child, easily snatching Sir Juventus' sword."
"You were there? Did Winston also make a move? "
"Yes." Saxon's face reddened.
Seeing Saxon's expression, Han Jin knew that Winston's end wouldn't be much better than Juventus'. "Let's go and take a look."
"Wait, my Lord." Saxon hurriedly stopped Han Jin. "Winston told me to tell you that the old man is most likely a supra class master! He wants you to make ample preparations before going. "
"A supra class master?" Han Jin's body trembled. Although everyone thought that he was a dragon slayer, he knew very well that with his current strength, if he were to fight against Gibran and the others, he would have a good chance of winning. However, if he were to fight against a supra class master, he would be courting death.
Han Jin slowly took a breath. "Where's Yalina?"
"I met Lady Yalina at the door. She has already rushed over with Majordomo Gail and the others."
"No need to make any preparations, let's go!" Han Jin said decisively. After all, the people from the Mercenary Association had stood up for him. In other words, now that they had suffered a loss, he had the responsibility to help them get back at Yalina. Even if he was thick-skinned and didn't care about the Mercenary Association, how could he not care about Winston? Even if he didn't care about Winston, how could he just watch Yalina suffer? The most important thing was that the opponent didn't hurt anyone even when he had the absolute advantage. Obviously, he didn't want to provoke a conflict. With Yalina's competitive temper, it was very likely that she would worsen the situation.
Saxon was horrified. He had heard about this before. Two supra class masters wouldn't easily start a conflict, unless it was an extreme conflict caused by huge benefits, or if they were 100% confident in themselves. In fact, Winston had a hidden meaning when he said to make ample preparations. He didn't expect Han Jin to rush over and beat up the old man, nor did he want to provoke a supra class master. He hoped that Han Jin would make his appearance more imposing, so that the old man would be wary and pave the way for peace talks.
Saxon also understood this, so when he saw Han Jin leaving without making any preparations, he was very shocked. Facing a supra class master, did Han Jin really have the strength to win?!
Saxon acted as the coachman and drove the carriage to the scene of the incident at the fastest speed. When they were about to reach Sylvia's house, they saw a group of mercenaries surrounding it from afar. Han Jin couldn't see the situation inside, so he simply jumped into the carriage. However, when he saw the people inside, he couldn't help but be stunned.
Seeing Han Jin arrive, the mercenaries let out deafening cheers. In Isolated Cliff City, Han Jin had become a big shot that everyone looked up to. The mercenaries' confidence in Han Jin was even stronger than their confidence in themselves.
In the field, Majordomo Gail was confronting an old man with a thin face. Yalina was behind him, eager to join in, but she didn't dare to because Majordomo Gail's attitude towards her was too strict. This was the first time in her memory that this had happened!
Hearing the cheers, the two men looked outside at the same time. Han Jin was standing on the carriage, his position very conspicuous. Then, the young man who had been hiding in the corner suddenly shouted more excitedly than the mercenaries, "Young master! Young master! I'm here!! "
