"In the future, we still have a long way to go." Han Jin spoke very slowly, holding Stillberg's and Miriam's hands in each other's. He slowly put their hands together. "I hope that the two of you can respect and love each other, and never leave each other … Alright, I won't say anymore, lest someone thinks I'm long-winded."
Stillberg's eyes were filled with tears as he stared blankly at Han Jin. He had so many things he wanted to say, but he didn't know where to start. Scenes from the past replayed in front of his eyes. He wanted to cry out loud, but it conflicted with the current atmosphere, so he could only control himself.
"Miriam, let me say a few last words to you." Han Jin turned his gaze to Miriam and said gently, "You know, although Stillberg and I are the same age, I've always seen him as my younger brother. He's … a little cowardly. I hope that you can fulfill your responsibilities as a wife. Not only do you have to take good care of him, but you also have to encourage him, encourage him, and push him to improve himself. Do you understand what I mean?"
"Yes!" Miriam nodded vigorously, tears quietly flowing down her cheeks. But unlike Stillberg, she was crying tears of happiness. More than a year ago, she was just a flower girl living at the bottom of the Isolated Cliff City. Every day felt like a year, and she had to endure hardships. She didn't have any ability to resist fate, and when Cromwell reached out to her, she could only passively endure. In the end, it was Han Jin who saved her, and from then on, her life had turned over a new leaf.
There weren't many people who came to the God of War to celebrate the wedding, but it depended on who they were. The Dragon Knight Guevara, the Left Hand of Darkness Majordomo Gail, the Thunder Titan Dominique, the Guardian of the Dragon Realm Chazeaux, and others such as Lang Ning, Alexandre, Hallister, Gibran, Cain, Chipango, and so on. They were all powerful figures in the Holy Crown City. Miriam knew that she was very ordinary, and it was an honor to receive the sincere blessings of so many important people!
Yalina smiled and took out a small red box. She gently opened the lid, and a dazzling aura gushed out. Inside the box was a necklace made of dozens of red gems. These gems were called bloodstones, and they were very precious. But for Yalina's family, they were nothing. However, the dozens of gems were almost exactly the same in color and size, which was very rare. Obviously, the creator of this necklace had put in a lot of effort.
Miriam was dazzled, and a look of fear appeared on her face. She couldn't help but look at Han Jin. Although she didn't know what these dozens of identical gems meant, she could feel that Yalina's gift was extremely valuable, and she didn't dare to accept it.
Han Jin smiled and nodded. He didn't expect that Yalina had prepared a gift for this day, and even kept it a secret from him like a child. When Yalina took out the necklace, he was also stunned.
"Look at what he's doing. This is my gift," Yalina said coquettishly. Yalina said coquettishly. She undid the necklace, and without waiting for Miriam's permission, she personally put it on Miriam's neck.
Maybe it was because of the reflection of the necklace, or maybe it was because of something else, but Miriam's face turned red. "Thank you …" She looked up at Yalina and sighed in her heart. Then, she lowered her voice and said, "Thank you, Madam …"
"What?" Yalina paused, then became overjoyed. She took out a ring in a flurry. "Here, this is for Stillberg."
Miriam took the ring and carefully put it on Stillberg's finger. Then, she put her arm around Stillberg's arm and pinched Stillberg's arm from an inconspicuous angle. Stillberg understood what Miriam meant and said in a low voice, "Thank you, Madam."
Yalina was so happy that her face was even redder than the bride's. She lowered her head and retreated to Han Jin's side in a panic.
"Begin!" Hogan shouted, and then gave the order to the magicians.
Boom … Boom … Boom … The magic crystal cannons on both sides of the God of War roared at the same time. Rays of red, light blue, yellow, and white light shot into the sky. From below, it looked like a huge flower was blooming. This was Han Jin's idea. Of course, he would not waste war resources. After a few rounds of firing, he would at most use up a few hundred grade 2 and grade 3 magic crystals. Moreover, the cannons would not have much power after a long distance.
The roar of the magic crystal cannons alarmed the residents of Holy Crown City. They all walked onto the streets and looked up at the God of War that had risen into the sky.
"I didn't prepare any gifts, haha …" Harley laughed strangely. "But I have something fun!" After saying that, Harley's body turned in a half-circle. The lower half of the smoke condensed into a black ball about two meters in diameter. Miriam could clearly see a familiar figure swimming in the ball.
"He's …" Miriam could not help but cover her mouth. She almost cried out in surprise.
"You remember now?" Harley laughed. "He dares to bully our Miriam. Haha … Watch how I punish him!"
Just as Harley finished speaking, the shadow within the sphere suddenly began to struggle with all its might, knocking itself all over the place. The face that Miriam had seen before also began to distort.
"Harley!" Han Jin shouted unhappily. "Don't scare Miriam!" He knew that Harley wanted to make Miriam happy, but unfortunately, the methods that an undead creature could come up with were always biased towards the dark side. It did not fit in with the current festive atmosphere.
Harley was stunned for a moment, and his body spun in half a circle. The black ball turned back into smoke, and Harley's tone was a little awkward as he stuttered, "Haha … Miriam, I wasn't trying to scare you, I was just trying to …"
"I know." Miriam bit her lips so hard that they almost bled. She barely managed to stop herself from crying. "Thank you, Harley!" She did not have any thoughts of blaming Harley. There were so many people trying to make her happy. What was there to be dissatisfied with?!
After that, Guevara, Majordomo Gail, and the others gave some gifts. Then, it was the turn of the young people like Morrisons and Sassoux. When young people encountered something like this, they would definitely 'harbor evil intentions'. They would not rest until they tortured Stillberg to death.
The atmosphere became more and more lively. Han Jin quietly left the crowd and went to the back of the ship. He looked at the blue sky and was lost in thought.
"Do you feel a little regretful?" A clear voice rang out from behind Han Jin.
"Regretful? What regret? "Han Jin smiled.
"The wedding should have been hosted by Jeddes, but you injured Aude … He can't attend the wedding at this time," Dominique said softly. "I heard from Master Guevara that we sent a total of six invitations to the Holy See, but not a single person has come."
"Haha … If they don't come, then so be it." Han Jin's expression was indifferent.
"You don't regret it?" Dominique asked slowly.
"What's done is done. There's no point in talking about it." Han Jin smiled and changed the topic. "By the way, Dominique, as a Thunder Titan, your control of thunder and lightning should be very strong, right?"
"I should be better than your wife." Dominique smiled.
"I need your help."
"Okay."
"You're not going to ask … what do I need you to do?"
"I've lived here for a long time."
This strange answer made people feel like they were talking nonsense, but Han Jin understood Dominique's mentality. He sighed softly and did not say anything.
Han Jin slowly turned his head and looked back. Everyone was having a good time, especially Morrisons. He was holding onto Lang Ning tightly and shouting something. Lang Ning tried to avoid Morrisons, but no matter how hard he tried, he could not break free from Morrisons' big hands. He smiled bitterly.
"Can you hear what they're saying?" Dominique asked softly.
"That guy … wants Lang Ning to bring the Abyssal Banshee to the ship." Han Jin was angry and amused at the same time.
"It's not easy for them either."
"Not easy?" Han Jin was surprised.
"When you led the army to attack Black Raven City for the first time, didn't you almost cause trouble?"
"You mean … the curse of the Abyssal Banshee?"
"Yes." Dominique nodded. "I heard that many generals and soldiers were cursed at that time."
"Yes. Fortunately, Zagunéd did not have time to take away the purifying crystal from Black Raven City. Otherwise, we would have suffered a great loss." Han Jin sighed.
"I'm too tall, so there's no room suitable for me below. Also, when you built the God of War, you obviously didn't know that you would become friends with a Thunder Titan. For me, the corridor and stairs below are too small, so I can only stay on the deck." Dominique changed the topic. "At first, they were a little worried about me, but they gradually got used to it. They even ignored my existence. After so long, I've heard many interesting things."
"What? Tell me. "Han Jin was curious.
"For example … the Abyssal Banshees." Dominique smiled. "They are very interested in the Abyssal Banshees."
"They? Who are they? "
"Many. Morrisons, Sassoux, Léger, Cain, Winston, and so on. Almost all of them."
"These guys …" Han Jin did not know whether to laugh or cry.
"You can't impose strict requirements on them," Dominique said. "They are very young, aren't they? But … you have to know that they only talk about it. They have never put it into action. Do you know why? "
"Why?"
"Because they don't want to embarrass you." Dominique paused. "If it weren't for your concerns, haha …"
Han Jin was silent. He knew that Dominique was telling the truth.
"They know that this peaceful sky is supported by you." Dominique's gaze turned to the horizon. "They are also grateful to you."
Han Jin quietly looked at Morrisons, Léger, and the others who were messing around in the distance. He did not speak for a long time. Only he knew what he was thinking.
"But sometimes, they feel troubled."
"Troubled?"
"They have their own pride and ideals," Dominique said softly. "But you walked too fast, and they couldn't keep up. You were fighting the enemy outside, and they could only hide in the God of War. They couldn't help you, and they didn't want to cause trouble for you. So other than being obedient children, what else could they do?" Dominique said softly.
Han Jin was silent for a moment. "Dominique, who told you to say this to me?"
"No one. I just wanted to say it."
"You've changed." Han Jin glanced at Dominique. "When we first met … you wouldn't say such things, and you wouldn't think so much."
"When we first met?" Dominique smiled. "But you've changed more than me!"
The biggest change in Han Jin was his contact with Grand Duke Solomon. Dominguez, on the other hand, had her own opportunities. She didn't just listen to the idle chatter of Moxinke and the others. Guevara and Majordomo Gail often sat here and talked about the current political situation. Sometimes, Jeddes would join in as well. Dominguez listened for a long time and thought about it for a long time. In fact, she had been studying all this time, but because she never revealed her thoughts, no one could tell.
"I know what to do," Han Jin said slowly.
Dominique smiled and did not speak anymore.
* * *
As the night deepened, several figures silently stood in the endless wilderness. Han Jin, who was the leader, had been looking up at the sky. Yalina was standing beside him, and Majordomo Gail and Dominique were also here. Hogan was observing the surroundings from time to time, and Harley was no longer as carefree as he used to be. Instead, he looked very dignified.
"Raphael, why does it have to be today?" Yalina asked softly. She looked very excited. She asked this question not because she was against anything, but because she was curious. The wedding was just coming to an end, and Stillberg and Miriam were still in the bridal chamber, but Han Jin had already found them and brought them to such a desolate place. She was puzzled.
"Because there's no moon today," Han Jin replied with a smile.
"Moon? Is it very important? "
"Very important." Han Jin paused. "It's time. Yalina, no matter what you see later, don't act rashly."
"I know." Yalina nodded heavily.
"When I make a magic item, it may make a lot of noise and take a long time." Han Jin said slowly. "I may completely lose my ability to protect myself. If an enemy hears or sees something and approaches here, I can only rely on you."
"Ah?" Yalina didn't expect it to be so serious. She couldn't help but look at Majordomo Gail behind her.
"Don't worry." Majordomo Gail's tone was still very relaxed, but his expression had become serious.
"Hogan." Han Jin waved his hand.
Hogan ran to the center and took out pieces of meteoric iron of different shapes from his space ring. He carefully placed them on the ground.
"You've been preparing here for a long time, right?" Dominique saw that the ground around them was full of strange runes.
"Yes." Han Jin answered casually, then began to form a spell. He didn't want so many people to see his "expression," but he had no other choice. He was going to use the Thunder Refining Spell to refine the Stellar Gold. This spell was very dangerous, so he was prepared to fail. If he really failed to refine the Stellar Gold on the God of War, the others would be unlucky as well. If they ran underground and couldn't trigger the Thunder Retribution, they could only choose this desolate place. After a moment, Han Jin's rapidly forming fingertips suddenly stopped. Then he said softly, "Stay away."
Yalina and the others hurriedly walked out. They were already more than 30 meters away, but Han Jin was still not satisfied. "Farther!"
It wasn't until Yalina and the others were more than 100 meters away that Han Jin turned his gaze to the meteoric iron in front of him. He gently turned his wrist, and a quietly burning fireball appeared in his palm. Then the fireball slowly expanded. After about seven or eight minutes, the fireball had become half the size of a car wheel.
Han Jin pushed his hand forward, and the fireball slowly fell on the meteoric iron, continuing to burn quietly. Not long after, this meteoric iron, which was known as the toughest metal on the continent and could give even dwarf forging masters a headache, began to melt little by little, turning into a bright green liquid that flowed down.
Just as the molten iron was about to come into contact with the ground, Han Jin stretched out his right hand and flicked it as if he was playing a piano. Every time his fingertips flicked, a bright green bead would fly into the air and float there. The speed of the melting of the meteoric iron became faster and faster, and so did the flicking speed of Han Jin's fingertips. In less than half an hour, all the meteoric iron had turned into molten iron and was wriggling in the air like a living cloud.
Han Jin controlled the liquid iron with his telepathic thoughts, and then took out a glass bottle that was more than a foot tall. Inside it was the Star Gold that Chazeaux had given him. Han Jin's wrist suddenly turned forward, and an invisible vibration instantly shattered the glass bottle. Countless grains of Star Gold, like gravel, were thrown forward by Han Jin's gesture and hit the bright green liquid iron.
Regardless of whether there was light in the surroundings, the Star Gold would always release an eternal light, which was the origin of its name. Even if it was wrapped in the bright green molten iron, it could not block the rising and falling golden light spots at all.
From afar, the cloud-like bright cyan molten iron looked like a piece of the sky, and the golden stars looked like a group of bright stars in the distance. Yalina was stunned and murmured, "So beautiful …"
Han Jin continued to release the Three True Flames and let the molten iron flow continuously, allowing the Star Gold to seep into the depths of the molten iron. After an unknown amount of time, he let out a long sigh. Then, a thunderous roar resounded between heaven and earth, "Rise!!"
Around Han Jin, countless talismans lit up in an orderly manner, and then a huge ball of light rose from the ground and shot straight into the sky. The dazzling light illuminated the earth.
With a loud bang, the ball of light exploded in the sky. Pieces of faintly discernible clouds condensed at the place where the ball of light exploded. Soon, the clouds became denser and denser, and finally covered the entire sky, forming an incomparably huge whirlpool, and the whirlpool was still spinning slowly.
