In the early morning, Han Jin and the others left the Eleventh Town quietly. Last night, Sassoux mentioned that he had said some harsh words before he left. His harsh words only made the security team and soldiers laugh at him, and at the same time, laid an unpredictable foreshadowing. Han Jin laughed and "criticized" Sassoux, saying that he was immature …
Michel was a little timid, and he complained about it. George liked to do things that were ruthless. What if he came to make trouble again?
Finally, Han Jin made the decision to leave the Eleventh Town and go to the West City first. On the one hand, they could avoid George, and on the other hand, they could help Qi Li. There was a branch of Morgan & Co. in the West City. When the top management of Morgan & Co. was in crisis, whether they still had control over the branches in each city, and whether the internal structure of Morgan & Co. could stand the test, they would know through this trip to the West City.
Except for Michel, everyone was in good spirits. Although Morrisons was a little impatient, he was also a man who could pick up and let go. Sassoux had rich experience and was good at self-regulation, so no one mentioned yesterday's incident again. Of course, although they didn't mention it, the thorn had been deeply buried in their hearts. Avoiding it was not forgetting it.
By noon, Han Jin felt a little tired. He had gone to bed very late last night and had absorbed the energy of two second-grade magic crystals. He had also used the pure elements to make a fire charm and a thunder charm respectively. There was only one fire charm of the wooden giant, and the energy consumption of six hundred yuan was too much for him to bear.
There happened to be an open-air inn in front of them. Han Jin asked for everyone's opinion and took the lead to walk to the inn. The so-called inn was actually a snack shop set up by the villagers nearby. It didn't even have proper tables and chairs. A few piles of stones were placed next to the tree stump.
As for the food provided, it was even coarser. Bread made of coarse wheat, and it cost more than ten copper coins to fill a broken bowl with water from the nearby river. But they just wanted to take a rest. No one wanted to eat and drink here, so there was no need to argue.
Han Jin and the others had only been sitting for a short while when a cloud of dust suddenly rose in the distance. A team of Knight Riders was running towards them at an extremely fast speed.
Sassoux glanced at it and his face immediately changed. Han Jin noticed the change in Sassoux and asked softly, "What's wrong?"
"Yesterday at the market … they were there!"
"What?" Michel said in a panic, "Let's go!"
"Why are you panicking?!" Morrisons glared at Michel.
Han Jin pondered for a moment, but before he could say anything, the Knight had already arrived. They jumped off their horses and sat beside the tree stumps, completely ignoring Han Jin and the others. It seemed that they also came here to rest.
One of the Knight Riders turned his head and saw Sassoux. He blinked his eyes and said something to the Knight beside him. Then, many of the Knight Riders turned around and looked at Sassoux. Then, there was a roar of laughter. Obviously, Sassoux was not the only one who remembered them. They also remembered Sassoux, or rather, remembered Sassoux's harsh words.
Han Jin's expression did not change. He lowered his voice and asked, "Sunier, are you confident?"
Sunier was stunned. "There's a Magician beside their leader. If we can take care of that Magician first, then there won't be a problem."
"Are we going to do it?" Morrisons showed an excited expression.
"No, just in case. It's best if we don't cause any trouble." Han Jin shook his head slightly. "Let's rest for a while more before we set off."
Han Jin was not the only one who did not want to cause any trouble. The Knight Riders did not want to cause any trouble either. After a while, they forgot about Sassoux and started chatting among themselves. However, when a group of men gathered together, the topic would never leave women. Soon, waves of obscenities were heard by Han Jin and the others. One of the Knight Riders even imitated the sound of a woman moaning in bed, which made the Knight Riders laugh even louder.
Sunier frowned. She was trying her best to control herself, but Qi Li could not stand it anymore. The things that the Knight Riders were talking about were too disgusting. She turned around and glared at the Knight Riders.
When the Knight Riders were walking up the hill, Qi Li's back was facing them, so they did not notice Qi Li at all. Now that Qi Li turned around, the Knight Riders were stunned. One of the Knight Riders whispered something into his leader's ear, and then strode toward Han Jin.
"Dear Miss, our general wants to make friends with you. Would you like to have a drink with him?" The Knight Rider's words were polite, but his actions were rude. He reached out to grab Qi Li's arm as he spoke.
Being rude was a habit. As the Knight Riders of the West City Legion, they represented the country's machinery and power. They were even the embodiment of justice. No one had ever dared to go against them, unless they offended a superior of a different faction.
"What are you doing? Get out of my way! "Qi Li screamed.
Morrisons reached out to grab the hilt of his sword, but Han Jin stepped on Morrisons' sword with his foot. He signaled Morrisons to stay put with his eyes.
The Knight Rider was embarrassed. When he heard the jeers of his companions, his eyes flashed and he was about to pull out his whip.
"Sir, my sister is young and immature. Please forgive her." Han Jin stood up with a smile. "How about this? I'll persuade her and then send her over. Is that okay?"
The Knight Rider looked at Han Jin. He felt that something was missing. Since he had regained his dignity, he did not want to go too far. He snorted and walked back. In fact, what Han Jin lacked was respect for the superior. Unfortunately, he did not think about it.
Han Jin sat down again and put his hand on Qi Li's shoulder. It seemed that he was talking to Qi Li. "You guys are ready."
"I knew it." Morrisons smiled.
"You … Are you crazy?" Michel said with a trembling voice.
"Do you want us to hand over Qi Li?" Han Jin asked.
"It's broad daylight. They just want Miss Qi Li to drink with them. No … Everyone, don't be impulsive!"
"Actually, there is only one reason to move forward. There are a hundred reasons to retreat." Han Jin looked deeply at Michel. "I'm curious. Why do people find a hundred reasons to prove that they are not cowards, but never a single reason to prove that they are brave?"
In terms of nature, Han Jin's attack power was not strong, but his elasticity was terrifying. In other words, no one could oppress him! Once Han Jin was enraged, there would be no such thing as "spare people where possible" in his dictionary. The result would be a fight to the death.
Sunier and the others focused their attention on Han Jin. Yes, Han Jin did not say anything like "I'd rather die than submit" or "as long as I'm still alive". In fact, his words were very rational, but they could arouse people's fighting spirit. Something called "fearlessness" boiled in their blood.
"Can you do it? I'll go. " Sassoux whispered. He knew what Han Jin wanted to do. He wanted to help Sunier take care of the Magician first.
"Don't worry." Han Jin smiled and whispered something in Qi Li's ear.
