In the boundless snowfield, a handsome unicorn galloped towards the end of the sky. As the saying goes, get used to it. After being captured by Han Jin, this unicorn had lived a fearful life. But in the Holy Crown City, its life had completely changed. One reason was that Yalina liked it, and the other was that Han Jin was too lazy to torture 'animals'. Moreover, at Yalina's request, he had blessed the unicorn with several sacrificial materials so that it could enjoy the same treatment as the little thunderbirds.
In just over twenty days, the unicorn's temperament had undergone a miraculous change. When it was in Black Raven City, it had always been submissive, like a huge mouse. Now, even when it was running, it still held its head up and chest out, looking majestically around.
Yalina curled up in Han Jin's arms like a little bird. Han Jin was going to the Capital of Elements to cure her father, and Han Jin had really accepted her. Tasting all these, she was so happy that words couldn't describe the happiness in her heart. She smiled at everything she saw. The once cold beauty had completely melted in Han Jin's arms.
However, Han Jin couldn't smile. The road to the Capital of Elements had been blocked by the elves, so he had to force his way through. As the saying goes, once bitten, twice shy. Han Jin certainly wouldn't be so timid, but he was full of vigilance and had made all kinds of preparations before he set off.
Although the dragons of Dragon City couldn't react so quickly, it was better to be safe than sorry. Since the outbreak of the war with the elves, Han Jin, who had always kept a high profile, had also become low-key. When he met the elven patrol, he would immediately turn around and run away, trying to avoid conflict.
What Han Jin didn't know was that the elves were more nervous than him. Sheila and other elves who had escaped had already spread the story of the battle. Many elves knew that Han Jin had changed his clothes, and in the vast snowfield, Han Jin's red cloak was particularly conspicuous. Seeing Han Jin in the distance, the elves were all scared out of their wits. Without waiting for the commander's order, they all scrambled to escape.
From the perspective of the gods, an interesting scene could be seen. When the two sides met in the distance, Han Jin turned around and ran away, but the elves' reaction was faster than Han Jin's. Han Jin ran far away and made sure that the elves didn't chase after him, nor did they sense the fluctuation of top or super grade creatures. Only then did he feel relieved. After the elves fled into the city, they had to immediately activate the Tree of Life and wait for half a day before they dared to relax their vigilance.
Han Jin also didn't know the significance of the battle between him and Maxwell!
The fate of Sunier, Gao Bin, Lydia, and the entire elven race had changed just like that. They didn't have to believe Sunier's evaluation, but they had to believe the truth! The elves had paid a huge price to invite Elder Maxwell of Dragon City. Now that Maxwell had been killed, who was going to bear the responsibility? Of course, Dragon City wouldn't bear the responsibility. As long as they pushed the blame to the elves, the elves would be in trouble. The key point was that inviting Elder Maxwell of Dragon City to participate in the battle had already cost the elders of the senate a lot. How much more would they have to pay to ask for Dragon City's forgiveness?
Moreover, before Prudence attacked Han Jin, Lydia had raised a sharp objection and contacted many tribal chiefs. Of course, she had her own reasons for her objection. Lydia's reason was that Han Jin's strength was very strong, and he might even have broken through the final barrier. It was unwise to be the enemy of such a strong person. Once they failed, they would have to suffer cruel revenge. In fact, Gao Bin's judgment was correct. Only a few tribal chiefs were willing to stand on Lydia's side. Most of them thought that with the participation of the dragons, they could crush the Holy Crown City into powder. They were just pretending to be polite to Lydia. In the end, the fact proved that Lydia was right. The Holy Crown City was still standing there. It was their blind optimism and confidence that was crushed into powder.
The direct result of this battle was that Prudence's prestige suffered an unprecedented blow. As a result, Gao Bin's and Lydia's influence grew rapidly. After Sheila, who was lucky enough to witness the final battle, came back, she became a firm follower of Gao Bin and Lydia. She would never forget that scene. Maxwell, the dragon elder who was close to the level of Demigod, was like a poor skinned pig, rolling and whining in the air. What would the elves do if they were there? Through Sheila's words, many elves knew how embarrassed Prudence was at that time.
You keep saying that killing Lord Raphael is as easy as squashing an ant, but in the end, the one who died was Maxwell. Then, you abandoned your comrades and ran away naked. How can you still have the face to continue being the commander of the allied army?!
The world was like a game of chess. At this moment, Han Jin was just a chess piece on the chessboard. He had no way to know what changes were brewing inside the elves, so he could only try his best to do what he should do.
At dusk, the unicorn stopped on top of a mountain that was neither too tall nor too short. It swung its long, cloud-like tail and looked around with its blue eyes.
Yalina straightened up, looked ahead, and whispered, "Raphael, be careful."
"What's wrong?"
"In front of us is the buffer zone between Wild Willow City and the Capital of Elements. It's a swamp area with a radius of almost a thousand miles. My father doesn't want this place because it's meaningless, but Wild Willow City doesn't dare to take it."
"Don't dare to take it?"
"Yes, maybe they will use the Tree of Life to turn this place into a flat field. Tomorrow, my father's army will come here, and so will Forsa from Fatto City. Forsa has always dreamed of expanding his territory." Yalina laughed, "There are some goblin immigrants living in the swamp area, but they are very few. There are also some demon beasts. Of course, for you, they are nothing."
"Is there a way to go around it?"
"It's a long way." Yalina said, "If we go around it from here, we have to go through Wild Willow City first and then go into the forest. If we go that way, we have to go through the forest first and then go through the territory of Fatto City to reach the Capital of Elements."
"How did you get to Isolated Cliff City?"
"It's from here." Yalina pointed forward, "But it was summer at that time, so we could vaguely see the road. It was more troublesome in winter. Some swamps were frozen, and some were just covered by snow. If we were not careful, we would sink in."
For Han Jin and Yalina, the swamps were not a threat, but they were still troublesome. Han Jin liked cleanliness, and Yalina liked cleanliness even more. It was too inconvenient to wash in the wild.
"Did you see any goblins on the way here? What do they look like? "
"I didn't see any." Yalina shook her head, "We only met a bandit group."
"Bandit group?" Han Jin laughed, "Back then … you swaggered out of the Capital of Elements with your students. You were quite brave." Not to mention their strength, they had almost no experience as travelers. It was a great risk to walk out of the laboratory and set foot on the vast wilderness and unknown life.
"I'm a magus!" Yalina said with a grin.
"Is there a place to rest in the swamps?"
"Of course there is. Are those goblins rolling in the mud all day?" Yalina paused, "Raphael, if you really don't want to go through here, we can go around it, but it will take a few more days."
"Forget it, let's go from here." Han Jin said softly. He didn't tell Yalina that Majordomo Gail had looked for him before they set off. In fact, Grand Duke Solomon's condition had been very serious since last year. Even the Grand Duke himself had joked with Majordomo Gail that it would be a victory if he could survive this winter. Therefore, Majordomo Gail was very emotional and repeatedly asked Han Jin to set off as soon as possible if he was really confident in curing Grand Duke Solomon's asthma.
Seeing that Majordomo Gail didn't hide his emotions, Han Jin faintly understood why Majordomo Gail kept putting pressure on Yalina. With the death of Grand Duke Solomon, no one could protect the Capital of Elements anymore, not even Yalina. The Capital of Elements was created by Grand Duke Solomon, and Grand Duke Solomon was the soul of the Capital of Elements. Without his soul, it was impossible for him to compete with Forsa, who was at the peak of his power.
Sui Xiong had to buy time so that he wouldn't regret it for the rest of his life. Moreover, his Green Glow had been destroyed, and his combat power had been greatly reduced. It would be unwise to leave from Wild Willow City or Fatto City.
As the sky was getting darker, Han Jin decided to find a place to rest behind the mountain. Han Jin and Yalina were familiar with camping in the wilderness. Soon, Yalina cleaned up a clean place, released a magic shield, covered it with blankets, pillows, and laid out the food. Twenty days ago, she had done the same thing, but compared to that time, her mood was absolutely different. The uneasiness had turned into a strong sweetness that couldn't be dissolved.
The two ate some food and chatted for a while. A few days ago, Han Jin had been urging Yalina to hurry up, and Yalina had used up a lot of her physical strength. Today, she finally had an early rest. She couldn't resist the sleepiness and gradually fell asleep. Han Jin couldn't sleep, so he grabbed Harley and asked him to observe the surroundings. Of course, he would also be on duty at night.
Now, Harley was in sharp contrast to the unicorn. How honest was the unicorn before? But now, he had become bolder, while Harley, who was so arrogant that he even dared to trick everyone into drinking together, had become quiet and well-behaved. In fact, no one would be able to stand being hit by a Thunder Palm every time they met. It might be fine for a day or two, but after a long time, Harley's conditioned reflexes would start to develop. Not to mention, Hanjin and Yalina were together, and the two of them were so affectionate. Why would Harley come out? Was he asking for a beating?!
However, God knew how much Harley longed to tell. No matter what he did, whether it was repenting or begging for mercy, as long as he had the chance to speak, he would ask for nothing else.
After adjusting his breath for a while, Han Jin slowly opened his eyes. With a flip of his wrist, a few light red long swords appeared in front of him. These were all inferior flying swords, and their purpose was to self-destruct like terrorists. They couldn't be used to deal with high-intensity battles. These days, he had been wanting to refine a main magic treasure, but unfortunately, he didn't have the materials he liked.
After a moment of silence, Han Jin sighed helplessly. In a few more days, if he really couldn't find the corresponding materials, he could only refine the Fire Dragon Sword. Although it was a pity, the situation didn't allow him to do so!
The luckiest thing would be to find some good things from Grand Duke Solomon. With Grand Duke Solomon's status, he must have a precious collection. Since he hadn't refined the Fire Dragon Sword for a long time, there was really hope in this regard. However … he hadn't received Grand Duke Solomon's recognition yet, and he was already thinking of getting some benefits from his father-in-law. Wasn't he a little too greedy?
Han Jin smiled and shook his head. He knew that Lang Ning and Jeddis' concerns were reasonable. Even if he cured Grand Duke Solomon's illness, Grand Duke Solomon might suddenly turn hostile and even attack him to curry favor with Dragon City. However, from Yalina's intermittent narration, he faintly felt that Grand Duke Solomon was a very wise person. Such a strong person shouldn't do such a shameless thing.
Even if it really came to that point, he would still take Yalina with him. Anyway, before they set off, he had spent a lot of essence energy on himself and Yalina to make sufficient preparations. It wasn't an exaggeration to say that he and Yalina were now almost immortal, and escaping would be no problem.
As for Yalina's attitude, he was secretly worried, but there was no point in thinking so much now. He could only take one step at a time.
With the threat of the elves, Dragon City, and Nicholas, he was in a very bad situation. It was as if his eggs were in danger. After defeating an opponent, he would have to face an even stronger opponent. However, he also had his own advantages and opportunities!
Seven spatial magic crystals appeared in front of Han Jin, exuding a sparkling light. There was also Jeddis's Holy Crystal. If he could get the Holy Crystal, he would be able to use two completely subversive Taoist methods, which would greatly improve his combat effectiveness!
The soldiers of the Holy Crown City praised him to the sky and praised him behind his back, saying that he was already a demigod. However, they all knew that it was impossible for him to release an attack of equal power. Only by fully utilizing the two Taoist arts, he would be able to fight against any strong man, including Nicolay, in one year!
"Master …" Harley came back and whispered in Han Jin's ear in a very low voice.
"Did you find anything?" Han Jin asked softly.
"No." Harley looked at the spatial magic crystals on the carpet and hesitated for a moment. Finally, he couldn't help but ask, "Master, when will you release the miracle?"
"Not for the time being." Han Jin shook his head, "I will consume all my power. During this time, I can't do anything and will become a useless person. Wait … when we return to the Holy Crown City, we will see the situation."
"Oh …" Harley was a little disappointed.
"Harley, when the time comes, I will need your help."
"What do you need me to do?"
"Vitality."
"Vitality?"
"You are also a kind of life, so I will strip away more than half of your spiritual power, which can't be recovered." Han Jin smiled, "Are you willing to do that?"
"I … I am willing!" Harley gritted his teeth, "As long as I can see the miracle, even if you strip away all my spiritual power, I am willing."
"Okay, it's a deal."
Harley was just about to express his loyalty and sacrifice with an impassioned oath, but suddenly he felt that Han Jin's words were a little strange. Deal? What kind of deal was it? Harley's life form was a little special. If an ordinary strong person was stripped of all his spiritual power, he would only become a useless person, but he would disappear completely. Of course, the ghost spirit in the Soul-Devouring Bead would still exist, but it would no longer be Harley.
"That … Master." Harley said timidly.
"Yes?"
"That … You will miss me, right?"
"Of course, what's there to miss?"
Harley only felt that the sky was dark, and a feeling of despair emerged in his heart. If he could cry, he would have shed tears, "But …"
Han Jin smiled, "Are you scared? Your vitality is just a mass of evil spirit. Even if you let me use it, I won't use it. "
Harley was stunned for a moment and almost cheered, but when he realized that Yalina was sleeping, he managed to control himself. Because he was no longer nervous, he no longer stuttered and became fluent, "Master, whose vitality do you want?"
Han Jin turned his eyes to Yalina and said slowly, "There are some things … that she should know."
"Ah?" Harley could hardly believe his ears, "You can't be so cruel, right?" With his absolutely undeveloped brain, he thought that Han Jin wanted to strip all of Yalina's spiritual power.
"What nonsense are you thinking?" Han Jin glared at Harley, and immediately became hesitant, "But, there's still a little bit left, the Yin and Yang …"
"Master, what are you talking about?"
"You won't understand even if I tell you. From nothing comes something, one becomes the Yin and Yang, and the Yin and Yang give birth to the Four Divisions. Do you understand?"
Harley shook his head blankly.
"I'll teach you slowly in the future." Han Jin smiled, but his smile soon became stiff.
Harley also sensed something and raised his head to look at the sky. Although the night was very dark, he could still clearly see a group of dark cloud-like things pressing down from the horizon. Furthermore, they could vaguely hear a familiar cry. On the God of War, they had often heard similar sounds. Thunderbird! And it was a large group of thunderbirds! Just by looking at the overwhelming momentum, there were probably tens of thousands of them!
Han Jin suddenly reached out and touched Harley's chest. He whispered a few words and then shouted, "Open!"
Harley's body silently exploded and turned into wisps of smoke. Then, the smoke covered the magic shield and turned into bushes, rocks, and gravel, completely covering their traces.
Mountain Sealing Spell! That day in Nicholas's territory, he had used the Mountain Sealing Spell to hide and had enough time to absorb the energy of the dragon's blood. Unlike the low-level Nine Palace Illusion Spell, even if someone approached, they would only walk over their heads and would never discover what was hidden below.
