When Han Jin returned to the Reaper Mercenary Team's encampment, the sky was already bright. Although he had rested for a while, Han Jin still felt exhausted. What he wanted to do most now was to go back to his bed, ignore everything, and sleep comfortably.
Opening the door, Han Jin couldn't help but be stunned. Sunier was lying on his bed, lazily playing with a little golden thunderbird.
The little thunderbird was the one that was almost trampled to death by Morrisons. As the saying goes, one who survives a great disaster is bound to have good fortune in the future. Its fate was decided during Han Jin and Han Jin's conversation, and Han Jin chose it to be the king of the thunderbirds.
Under Han Jin's special care, the little thunderbird grew very fast. Its originally fat body gradually became longer, and it had a streamlined beauty. Now, the little thunderbird was still in its infancy, but its size and weight were comparable to an ordinary eagle.
"Why are you here?" Han Jin said a very meaningless sentence. Fortunately, Sunier was not a sentimental person, otherwise, she would definitely think too much.
"Waiting for you!" Sunier rolled her eyes at Han Jin. "Where did you go the whole night?"
"Didn't I tell you that I had something to do? I might not be able to come back tonight." Han Jin said as he sat on the bed.
"You said you wouldn't come back, and you didn't even tell others what you were doing. Everyone was worried about you!"
"What could I have to do?" Han Jin smiled. "Don't worry, if I wanted to run away, no one on this continent could stop me." After saying that, Han Jin lazily laid down on the bed. He really needed to rest.
Sunier wanted to say something, but when she looked at Han Jin, she sighed softly and said nothing.
Han Jin's heart skipped a beat. He realized that he had been neglecting Sunier for the past few days. In fact, he was also helpless. After all, a person's energy was limited. He wanted to improve his strength and prepare for his future confrontation with Nicholas. There were many things that he had to do, and he didn't have the time to hide in a corner with Sunier.
This was also the common helplessness of many people who had achieved something or wanted to achieve something. No matter what industry one was in, one had to pay a price to make a name for oneself. No one's success could be completely dependent on luck. Of course, those who hid in the shadows of their ancestors did not count.
Time, energy, sweat, and so on. It was because they had put in far more effort than others that they could become the best. It was also because of this that they would neglect some things that they should not neglect. For example, lovers. However, it was difficult to have the best of both worlds. There was only so much time in a day and a person's energy. If he spent too much time on one side, he would naturally spend less time on the other side. It was unimaginable that a man who spent all his time around his wife and children would have any achievements.
"Why did you bring Jin Lei out?" Han Jin had nothing to say. Jin Lei was the name of the little thunderbird. "They are still young. We have to lock them up and train their wild nature."
"How do we lock them up?"
"Haven't we always locked them up in the backyard?"
"Little Jin Lei can already fly. How can we lock them up? Do we have to lock them up in a cage? "Sunier rolled her eyes again.
"They can fly?" Han Jin was surprised and happy at the same time.
He didn't know if it understood the conversation between Han Jin and Sunier, but the little Jin Lei let out a crisp chirp. Then, it spread out its wings and flapped it a few times.
There was a sudden gust of wind in the room. Even the half-closed window was pushed open. Sunier's elegant long hair was immediately messed up. What was even more pitiful was that she was wearing light gauze pajamas. She couldn't withstand the strong wind and almost exposed her chest. In this day and age, there was no such thing as covering or not covering. Once it was opened, everything would be exposed.
"This little rascal!" Sunier scolded and hurriedly tried to cover her exposed chest.
Sunier's scolding was very loud. The little Jin Lei felt that something was wrong. It folded its wings and moved a few steps towards Han Jin's direction, avoiding Sunier.
"Don't scare it." Han Jin laughed. He reached out to grab Sunier's shoulder and fell backwards. Sunier screamed as she was pulled down by Han Jin. She couldn't help but lean on Han Jin.
"Do you want to call everyone here?" Han Jin said in a low voice.
"You … Don't mess around!" Sunier struggled as she anxiously said, "The window! The window is open! "
"I won't mess around. Just stay with me for a while." Han Jin closed his eyes slightly.
After waiting for a while and seeing that Han Jin didn't move, Sunier stood up and looked at Han Jin. Women's thoughts were just that strange. When Han Jin pulled her down, she was shocked, embarrassed, and scared. But now that Han Jin didn't move, she felt a bit uncomfortable.
"Raphael, what's wrong?" Sunier asked softly. She just realized that Han Jin's condition wasn't right.
"Tired … Too tired." Han Jin murmured. Releasing the Thunder Refining Spell not only consumed almost all of his vital energy, but he also had to use his mind to control the thunder. He overdrafted too much. Now it was like he had a hangover. His head hurt and he didn't even want to move his fingers, let alone do anything. He had the heart and courage to do it, but he really didn't have the strength to do it.
Sunier saw that Han Jin couldn't even open his eyes. She sighed and leaned on Han Jin's shoulder. Then she remembered something and whispered, "Raphael, I have something to tell you."
"Say it."
"Isn't your magic able to transform these thunderbirds? But … Can it increase the lifespan of the thunderbirds? "
"Why?"
"The thunderbirds' infancy is only half a year. They grow fast and age fast. At most six or seven years, they won't be able to fly in the sky anymore. Can you think of a way?" Sunier bit her lips, "Six or seven years will pass in the blink of an eye. I … can't bear to."
If Han Jin opened his eyes at this moment, he would definitely see Sunier's abnormality. Han Jin was so tired, Sunier shouldn't be pestering Han Jin at this time. The matter of the little thunderbirds could be put aside for later. Her question must have its own meaning.
"I'll try …" Han Jin answered vaguely. Then his finger gently patted Sunier's waist.
Sunier's eyes suddenly flashed with sadness, but immediately became firm. She leaned on Han Jin's side again. After waiting for Han Jin for an entire night, she was tired and sleepy. She originally wanted to accompany Han Jin for a while before returning to her room, but after a while, she and Han Jin fell asleep at almost the same time. Little Gold Lightning called out a few times in a low voice. Seeing that no one was paying attention to it, it simply jumped down and obediently laid down at the end of the bed. Its pair of round eyes slowly closed.
The window! The damn window that was blown open by Little Gold Lightning was still open. Sunier planned to close it when she went back, but she was powerless now.
Early in the morning was the busiest time. Everyone would gather together to eat, talk about yesterday's events, and talk about today's goal. The atmosphere was very intimate and warm.
Han Jin said that he was going out last night and didn't come back. Everyone was a little uneasy. Morrisons took the initiative to go to Han Jin's courtyard to see what was going on. In the end, he saw a shocking scene from the window …
In the entire team, the most heartless person was Morrisons! It was fine if he smiled knowingly. Of course, it didn't matter how far his smile was from the truth. However, Morrisons was different. It was as if he had seen the avatar of a god. He jumped out and told everyone what he saw in a big fuss. He even called for everyone to go take a look.
Luckily, Julia was there! Under her stern reprimand, everyone in the hall obediently sat back down on their chairs. Then, Julia hurried to Han Jin's courtyard, closed the windows, and ordered a few slave warriors to guard the gate and not let anyone in.
However, no matter how powerful a person was, he couldn't become the center of the world. Han Jin fell asleep, but the whole world and everyone was still operating according to their own predetermined paths.
On the official road hundreds of miles away, a dozen Knights were sweating profusely as they desperately urged their horses to gallop towards Isolated Cliff City. They were carrying a letter for help personally written by General Lang Ning! Standing behind Lang Ning was the once all-powerful Dragon Knight, Guevara. Even Guevara couldn't solve the problem and had to ask for help from Isolated Cliff City. It wasn't hard to imagine how difficult the problem was!
In the dark abyss, a dense swarm of bats flew in a frenzy. The one flying at the front was a silver-white giant bat, Alquete! In fact, although Betty was his descendant, they were separated by several generations and there was almost no affection between them. However, Alquete had been sleeping underground for too long, and he wanted to go out and relax. Sometimes, ignorance was bliss. If Alquete knew that there was a powerful Archbishop beside Han Jin, would he still have the courage to continue flying to the surface?
In fact, the priests were only a supporting force and couldn't determine the outcome of a battle. The reason why the Holy See had such a high status was that the priests had displayed great combat power in the war against the Abyssal Race. To the Abyssal Race, light magic could cause fatal damage to them!
Jeddes didn't have the highest status in the Holy See, and he wasn't the strongest either. After all, there was the Pope above him. However, when it came to magic, no one could compare with him. Jeddes had already created a completely different field. The emergence of cascading magic would definitely completely change the existing magic system!
In the back of a quaint shop in Isolated Cliff City, a few elves were sitting there and discussing something in low voices. Although they or they looked very young, each of them was wearing a purple robe. The famous Great Elf Lydia was standing behind them with her hands behind her back. For the elves, purple represented nobility and mystery. Only the elders of the Elder Council could wear purple robes. Even Lydia wasn't qualified to wear such a robe.
"Lydia, what do you think?" one of the male elders turned around and asked.
"Sir, isn't this a bit inappropriate?" Lydia hesitated for a moment and replied softly.
"What's wrong with it? We need peace, and we love peace. Anyone who wants to subvert the peace is our enemy! "another female elf said coldly.
Lydia didn't speak anymore and slowly lowered her head. For hundreds of years, she had been the vanguard of Wild Willow City! Such high-sounding words couldn't fool her. She knew what the so-called peace was.
