As the saying goes, take his life while he's down! Han Jin walked slowly in the Mage Tower of the Underground City. No matter how tight Zagunéd 'control of the Mage Tower was, it was useless to Han Jin. Outside the Mage Tower, there were hundreds of Minotaurs patrolling back and forth. At the top of the tower, there were a few Abyssal Mages in charge of guarding. However, Han Jin directly snuck into the Mage Tower and easily avoided all the checkpoints.
If a city was compared to a person, then this place was the heart of the person!
In order to deal with Will and his brothers, Zagunéd had already mobilized most of the Abyssal Mages and his elite troops. If he didn't cause trouble now, when would he?!
The facilities in the Mage Tower were very complete. This was not only the heart of the city's defense system, but also the place where the Abyssal Mages learned and grew. As he walked down the stairs, he could often see Abyssal Mages in groups of twos and threes discussing, laughing, or walking hurriedly.
Han Jin had already made up his mind to attack the moment he was interrogated. Therefore, his expression was very calm, and he even looked at the surrounding scenery with interest as he walked. However, even when he reached the top of the building, the main tower of the Magus Tower was right in front of him, no one came to stop him.
Han Jin sensed something and raised his head to look at the sky. Before he entered the Underground City, he had already seen a rainbow bridge. Now that he was looking at it from above, he realized how spectacular the rainbow bridge made of lava was. Every lava flow was seven to eight meters wide. They rose from one end of the city and descended from the other, spanning the entire sky.
"It's beautiful, isn't it?" A gentle voice sounded behind Han Jin.
Han Jin looked back. It was a female Abyssal Mage. She wore a light red silk dress that covered her feet. She had a graceful figure and a cloak made of unknown magic beast skin was draped over her shoulders. Her skin was very white, and her eyes were picturesque. She looked very pure.
"Yes." Han Jin nodded, then asked, "Night Elves?"
The female Abyssal Mage also nodded. "Are you new?"
"Why do you ask?"
"Because only new mages would stand here to admire the rainbow bridge. We … have already seen too much." The female Abyssal Mage sized up Han Jin. "Human? I'm Joyce. Nice to meet you. "
"My name is Raphael." Han Jin smiled.
Han Jin's appearance had always made Morrisons, Sassoux, and the others jealous. Also, his temperament was elegant, and it was difficult for people to dislike him. For strangers, it was already half the battle if they did not dislike him. At least, they would be interested in talking to him.
"Raphael? This name sounds familiar … "Joisse frowned and thought for a moment. Then he smiled and said," I know, I must have heard it from a friend. Hey! You have to be careful. It seems like you've already attracted the interest of others. "
"Maybe they have the same name," Han Jin said with a smile.
"That's impossible." Joisse shook his head.
Han Jin lost interest in talking. His purpose here was to kill, not to seek pleasure. He slowly turned around and glanced at the two Minotaurs. The two Minotaurs were guarding the entrance of the main tower. If he wanted to enter the main tower, he had to force his way through. Under his feet was a familiar rock made by alchemists. Burrowing had lost its effect, and he did not want to get a big bump on his head again.
"It seems like you have something on your mind?" Joisse said as he moved to the wall and looked at the small crowd below.
"Something on my mind?"
"Actually, I know even if you don't say it," Joisse said in a confident tone.
"Tell me." Han Jin did not know whether to laugh or cry.
"You're a human. You're willing to give up the warmth of the sun and come to the underground city. This already proves everything." Joisse's gaze once again focused on Han Jin, but this time, his eyes were full of sympathy. "Forget the suffering of the past. This is the paradise that Lord Zagunéd created for you, me, and all the unfortunate lives. Believe me, you'll live a good life here. You'll be very happy."
Han Jin's experience was already very rich, but he was still stunned by Joisse's encouragement.
In fact, this was normal. Zagunéd used terrifying means to deal with his enemies, but when it came to commanding his own army and managing his own city, he would not use the same terrifying means. Even the wildest and most violent race would sometimes become fragile and need a quiet and safe home.
Han Jin was the first to have a conflict with the vampires. Later, he occupied Nuremberg and Black Raven City. Now that he came to the underground city, everything he saw made him dislike Zagunéd, Zagunéd's forces, and even the entire Abyssal Race. Therefore, he thought Joisse's words were ridiculous.
"My past was as tragic as yours. I was ostracized and bullied everywhere …" Joisse sighed faintly. "Only here did I find my own peace."
"How long have you been here?" Han Jin asked with a smile.
"More than ten years. Why?"
"Zagunéd occupied this underground city for only a year, right?"
"I used to be in Black Raven City, but … there was a despicable guy who secretly attacked Black Raven City when Lord Zaganide was away on an expedition. Fortunately …" Joyce suddenly couldn't continue. She felt like she had discovered something, but she couldn't put her finger on it. She tilted her head and pondered hard.
"Do you believe it?" Han Jin asked with a smile.
"Believe what?"
"Believe what you said just now, that Zagunéd created a paradise for you."
"Why not?! I'm the best proof of that! " Joisse realized that Han Jin did not use honorifics to address Zagunéd. She was really angry, but she could understand Han Jin. Almost everyone who was forced to hide in the Abyss had a bitter past, so they were suspicious of everything.
"So it's true … When a lie is repeated a thousand times, it becomes the truth." Han Jin could not help but shake his head with a smile.
"You can't say that!" Joisse's expression became serious. "I can pretend that I didn't hear anything, but … if you say that in front of others, you'll get yourself into big trouble!"
"Talking casually will get you into big trouble. Is this really a paradise?" Han Jin laughed.
"Well …" Joisse was speechless. "You just came here, so you don't believe anything. You'll get used to it after a while. Feel it with your heart!"
"I can only feel the cries of countless wronged souls." Han Jin lowered his head and looked at his hands. Even he did not know if he was talking about Zagunéd or himself.
"Forget it, let's not talk about this." Joisse forced a smile. She realized that the thoughts of the person in front of her were very strange and sharp. She tried to change the topic. "If there's a chance in the future, I'll take you to see my sister. She's very nice. You'll like her, and … you'll believe what I say." Of course, the 'like' that the pair of childish eyes thought of had nothing to do with desire. It was just pure like how she liked Han Jin now.
"Your sister?"
"Her name is Hazel." Joisse raised her head proudly.
"Hazel …" Han Jin narrowed his eyes. "I've seen her before."
"Really?" Joisse's face was filled with surprise and joy. She grabbed Han Jin's arm. "You've seen her before? When did you see her?! "
Han Jin's eyes suddenly shot out a sharp light. In the country that he feared the most, he was attacked by a child. If it was not for the Faked Earth Corpse, he would have been dead already. Therefore, he was very cautious of things that looked weak and childish. When Joisse jumped at him, he almost threw a punch at her innocent face.
Han Jin's murderous intent was so strong that Joisse shivered. However, she still grabbed Han Jin's arm and begged, "When did you see her? Tell me! Tell me! "
"It's been more than a year. On the surface." Han Jin retracted his murderous intent and said softly.
"Oh …" Joisse pulled her hand back in disappointment. Her face blushed slightly. "I'm sorry, I lost my composure. I … I haven't seen my sister for a long time, so …"
"It's nothing. I understand." Han Jin smiled and shook his robe. "If … you see Hazel again, tell her that someone called Raphael told her that what she did to you … was wrong." After that, Han Jin walked slowly toward the main tower.
"Wrong? What wrong? "Joisse stared blankly at Han Jin's back.
"Also, I'm sorry." Han Jin turned around and smiled at Joisse. Then, he started walking again.
The place where they were talking was about 300 meters away from the main tower. After a while, Han Jin was already close to the main tower, leaving Joisse confused.
"Honorable Magician, your pass." A minotaur smiled strangely and reached out his hand to Han Jin. In fact, they were not in charge of the Mage Tower. Because the people in the tower were their own people, they were very friendly.
"Okay." Han Jin flipped his wrist, and a green light suddenly bloomed. Before the Minotaur could react, two huge heads had already soared into the sky, accompanied by a bloody glow.
Han Jin opened the door and strode in. Joisse, who was far away, had not yet recovered from the violent and bloody scene. She saw a bright red light shining in the interior of the Mage Tower. Then, she saw the tall tower start to collapse in an instant, and it collapsed into powder. Finally, she heard an incomprehensible but loud chant. "A stone stirs up a thousand waves …"
The eight majestic rainbow bridges collapsed at the same time. Balls of hot and heavy lava fell. Joisse reflexively cast a magic barrier around himself. However, the people in the underground city were not so lucky. The lava continued to hit the ground and turned into flying streams of fire, setting the houses on fire and melting the lives. In the blink of an eye, the underground city had turned into a purgatory!
