"Raphael, do you know what we found?" As soon as he saw Han Jin's figure, Cain could not help but shout. Jeddis was not here, otherwise, he would not have shouted in such a tone, which would have irritated Jeddis.
"What did you find?" Han Jin asked even though he already knew the answer.
"Dragons! More than twenty dragons! "Cain's eyes and face were full of joy. Secrets were easy to leak, not to mention that in the later stages, Han Jin no longer cared about protecting the secret, nor could he protect it. For example, when Fabian was in charge of absorbing the dragon's blood, it was impossible for him to do everything by himself. He needed some helpers, some mages and alchemists to ensure the quality of the dragon's blood, and some soldiers to escort it. Therefore, many people knew that Han Jin's ability to improve so quickly must have something to do with the dragon's blood. In fact, they had secretly learned about it. Morrisons and a few others once secretly found Fabian and asked for a bottle of dragon's blood. They shared it and drank it, but they did not feel any effect, so they had to give up in the end.
In terms of affiliation, they were all members of the Holy Crown City Force Group. The stronger Han Jin was, the safer they would be, and the brighter their future would be. In terms of personal relationships, Cain, Gibran, and Julia had exchanged their lives for each other, and they were also the first mercenary team to contact Han Jin and the others. After many battles, they had formed a deep friendship. Of course, Cain hoped to see Han Jin improve further. Therefore, Cain was so excited that he almost could not control himself.
"More than twenty dragons? Really? "Han Jin said in surprise. As soon as he said that, Han Jin knew that something was wrong. His reaction was a little pretentious. In fact, it was not that he did not know how to act. The problem was that if he was deceiving his enemies, he would definitely do it perfectly. But if he deliberately deceived his friends, it was a different matter. He could not cross the hurdle in his heart, and there were some flaws in his acting.
"It's true! Haha … Are you surprised? "Cain laughed.
Guevara's eyes flashed, but he quickly shifted his gaze elsewhere as if nothing had happened. Kane would not pay attention to such details, nor would he suspect Han Jin. However, Guevara's observation skills were much sharper than Kane's. This was normal. Guevara's experience was enough to make a legend, but it was filled with tragedy. Kane's experience was considered rich among his peers, but compared to Guevara's, the difference was too great.
Han Jin knew something was wrong and hurriedly changed the topic. "Where's Jeddes?" If he hadn't seen Jeddis leave, he wouldn't have come out to greet him. If he hadn't seen Jeddis leave, he wouldn't have come out to greet him. Even in front of Cain, he would have exposed his flaws. If he faced Jeddis directly, perhaps his flaws would be even bigger and more obvious. Moreover, a long time ago, when he had a heart-to-heart talk with Jeddis, he had said, "If you don't lie to me, I will never lie to you." If he wanted to ask for Jeddis' forgiveness in the future, he would have to avoid contact with Jeddis now. Otherwise, it would be difficult for him to gain trust.
"He took a few Knight of Light back to the Holy Crown City. Adonis is seriously injured, and Aude is still unconscious. The Vatican needs someone to take charge." Kane replied.
Han Jin sighed softly and his eyes fell on Ai Mijie. Ai Mijie had also left with his Knight Regiment. Moreover, Jeddis had asked Ai Mijie to stay with the Knights of Light at this time, which meant that he wanted to help Han Jin and contribute in this war. However, this made Han Jin feel even more uncomfortable. He walked over and patted Ai Mijie on the shoulder. "I've heard from Yalina, we …" After saying this sentence, Han Jin didn't know how to continue. Ai Mijie was a young general that he valued more, and he also had the opportunity to enter the magic laboratory to train. As for a lie, it was better not to say it so easily.
"Sir, I understand. Don't worry about me." Ai Mijie's eyes were full of anger, but his tone was still very gentle. "Even if this didn't happen, the Vatican would still not forgive the sins of the Dragon Field! But the last time I saw Chazeaux here, I didn't do anything to make you worry, did I? "
"The Vatican and the Dragon Field? What happened between you two? "Kane asked in surprise.
"When Nicholas attacked the mountains of The Rising Sun, the dragons of the Dragon Field were their main force." Ai Mijie said lightly.
"It's good that you can stay rational." Han Jin said slowly. "Hatred is used to destroy the enemy. If the first one to be destroyed is yourself, it's better to choose to forget." Han Jin could only persuade Ai Mijie with this irrelevant truth.
"I will always remember your teachings in my heart," Amijay bowed slightly and said respectfully. Although Ai Mijie looked a little older than Han Jin, and his tone was a little strange, everyone thought it was normal.
Ai Mijie was a Paladin Knight who could stay rational, and Han Jin valued him because of this. When he ran into the guardian of the Dragon Field, Chazeaux, he acted as if nothing had happened. After returning, he did not leak any information. He had a quality that most young people lacked: calmness. If it were Aude, no one could guarantee that he would cause trouble. Even if he knew that he was no match for Chazeaux, he could still challenge him on the spot, or use harsh diplomatic words to force Han Jin.
Ai Mijie was very clear that Han Jin could kill Maxwell, but it did not mean that Han Jin could fight against the Dragon City, let alone make enemies with the Dragon Field and the Dragon City at the same time. That would be suicide! Dismark had been operating in the Holy Crown City for many years, turning the city into a fortress with strong defense. However, compared with the Never-Setting Sun Mountains where the Vatican was located, it was nothing. If Dismark was like an iron tortoise, then the Vatican, which had been entrenched in the Never-Setting Sun Mountains for countless years, was like a golden tortoise. But what about a golden tortoise? Nicholas and the Dragon Field joined hands to attack and destroyed all the defenses of the Vatican. It only took a few days for the Vatican to fall.
Now, the Vatican had become extremely weak after surviving the disaster, and it was not suitable for them to challenge the Dragon Field, even if Han Jin helped them with all his strength. If they really angered the Dragon Field, the Dragon Field only needed to send out hundreds of giant dragons to turn the Vatican and the Holy Crown City into the dust of history.
In fact, after Chazeaux learned that Han Jin had made enemies with the Dragon City, he still went to Depew City and Cold Shadow City according to the original plan, and then went back to the Capital of Elements to find Grand Duke Solomon. Finally, he decided to come to the Holy Crown City. The existence of the Vatican had a great influence. Han Jin had made enemies with the Dragon City, which was his advantage, but he had a close relationship with the Vatican, which was his disadvantage. The two sides offset each other, and Chazeaux's impression of him became worse. If he did not realize that Han Jin had unimaginable potential, he would not have come to the Holy Crown City at all!
Suddenly, there was a burst of cheers below the God of War. People walked to the side of the ship and looked down. About forty horses were pulling a giant dragon as big as a hill, and they were slowly approaching the camp. According to the weight of the giant dragon, not to mention forty horses, even four hundred horses might not be able to pull it. However, there were not only a few people around Han Jin, but also thousands of people. As the saying goes, there is strength in numbers! This strength was in a broad sense, not just the strength of people.
Kane was the actual commander of the Magic Legion in the Holy Crown City, and he had many water magicians under his command. The magicians took turns to form a thick layer of ice on the ground. Wherever the horse pulled the dragon, the ice would be there. Of course, it was much easier than pulling a heavy object on the ground.
If they could put the giant dragon in a space ring, it would be even easier … Unfortunately, such a great artifact had never appeared on the continent.
"Let's go, Yalina, let's go down and have a look." Han Jin said to Yalina.
"I have already informed Fabian. Anyway, he has experience in this field." Kane felt a little surprised. Why should they go down? If they waited here, someone would deliver the dragon's blood.
Han Jin ignored Kane and released the Earth Shrinking Spell. Yalina also floated in the air, left the God of War, and chased after Han Jin's back.
When Han Jin and Yalina landed near the giant dragon, Fabian had already started to work with his "manufacturing team". Seeing Han Jin, the nearby soldiers paused for a moment, and then burst into cheers. The cheers became louder and louder, reaching a deafening level.
Wholeheartedly obeying the strong, even cheering for the strong's progress, grieving for the strong's setbacks, and even forgetting their own existence. This was a kind of slavery engraved deep in the soul. It was a pity that in this chaotic continent, slavery was the only survival strategy for most ordinary people. Otherwise, they would easily lose their right to live. Sometimes, even if the slavery was deep enough, it was still easy to be killed, just like in Radon Town, where Han Jin lived.
Everyone would encounter many firsts, and the enlightenment of the first time could often change one's goal, worldview, and so on. Han Jin's present situation was inseparable from his first experience. Radon Town was burned down, and the mayor of Radon Town, Manhanna, was hacked to death in public. Human life was so cheap! For a period of time, Han Jin hated Manhanna very much, because Manhanna deliberately made things difficult for 'Raphael'. Because of Manhanna's example, other townspeople dared to vent their dissatisfaction with the nobles on the two degraded master and servant. Now that he thought about it, although Mahana was bad, he was honest. At least, he did not secretly send people to kill 'Raphael'. However, some other higher-ranked people killed Mahana on the spot as if they were crushing an ant.
There was no need to blame the slavery of ordinary people. The so-called survival strategy meant that without slavery, they would have died long ago. Slavery was born in a high-pressure and chaotic environment from the beginning to the end. In fact, not only ordinary people always felt suffocating pressure, but also those powerful people, because there was always someone stronger than them. This world was a chaotic one full of pressure for survival!
Most of the high-ranking people ruled the territory by means of iron and blood, except for Han Jin. When they first met the Red Vanguards, Gibran, Cain, Julia, and the others were all quite strong. If they joined a lord, they would definitely be put in an important position. However, many high-ranking mercenaries chose to stay in Isolated Cliff City for no other reason than the difference in the nature of the pressure to survive. The pressure to survive in Isolated Cliff City was simple and straightforward, while the pressure to survive in a lord's territory was complex and heavy. To put it bluntly, in Isolated Cliff City, their life and death were in their own hands. At worst, they could control their greed and not take on dangerous missions. However, if they joined another lord, they would gain considerable power and influence, but their life and death would not be in their own hands. If their strength improved too quickly, they could become a threat to the lord. If their strength improved too slowly, they would be ignored. Even if they did everything perfectly, who could guarantee that they would not become a pawn of the lord?
But by Han Jin's side, no one could feel the pressure from Han Jin. It was proven that Han Jin never let his friends sacrifice themselves. On the contrary, he always took the dangerous burden on himself.
So, Gibran, Cain, and Julia came. So, Winston and Saxon came. Dwightsteel of the Dragon Singer Mercenary Group also wanted to come. But Han Jin felt that the Dragon Singer Mercenary Group's departure left the strength of Isolated Cliff City too weak, so he asked Dwightsteel to stay in Isolated Cliff City for a while. There were also many others. Guevara came, Jedis and Dominique stayed, Hogan changed from betrayal to loyalty, Alexandre, Majordomo Gail, and so on. It could be said that when Grand Duke Solomon was as young as Han Jin, he would never have been as outstanding as Han Jin.
However, Han Jin, who was focused on cultivation, didn't realize why all the strong people he came into contact with were willing to stay on the God of War and by his side. Sometimes, Han Jin's thinking was very simple. Of course, he wouldn't easily trust anyone. He would slowly think about it, and when he thought that this person was really good to everyone, he would accept them, truly accept them. As for protecting them, that was just his duty. He never thought that there was anything to be proud of.
Fabian heard the cheers of the soldiers and turned his head to see Han Jin. He hurriedly came over with a smile.
"Go do your work." Han Jin smiled and waved his hand.
"Sir, Miss Yalina, Sir Guevara, I'll be going then." Fabian bowed and ran back. He finally understood Han Jin's preference. Instead of saying a thousand words of flattery, it was better to do one thing well. Han Jin didn't even care about other people's attitudes. He only cared about his or her actions.
When Han Jin heard the words "Sir Guevara," he couldn't help but be stunned. He pulled Yalina and ran down to avoid Guevara. He could feel that Guevara was suspicious.
Turning around, he saw Guevara striding over. Han Jin sighed in his heart. He gently put his hand on Yalina and put on a very affectionate posture. He then asked, "Why are you here?" Han Jin's subtext was very obvious. Look, I'm being intimate with Yalina. Don't disturb us, okay?
"Don't you think you should explain to me?" Guevara said faintly, as if he didn't see anything.
"Explain what?" Han Jin weighed in his heart. Anyway, this sentence wasn't a lie. He was just pretending to be stupid.
"The battlefield is in chaos. There are giant dragons from Dragon City, giant dragons from Dragon City, giant dragons from Dragon's Realm, and also orcs and behemoths. Even the dead bodies of elves have appeared. How could they be together?" Guevara said slowly, "This is ridiculous! At first, I couldn't understand it, but then … I remembered that you had been practicing in isolation for a few days. Yesterday, after dinner, you disappeared without a trace. I think you should give me an explanation! Almost all the forces are involved in the battle. I don't believe that you're not involved! "
"This …" Han Jin hesitated.
Yalina gently touched Han Jin's waist. She felt that she would have to tell Guevara sooner or later, so she might as well tell him now.
Guevara's observation was so sharp that he immediately caught this movement. Thinking about it, with Yalina's curiosity, she should also be curious about this topic. At this moment, he didn't see any desire to ask. He immediately made a judgment in his heart and said, "You don't want to tell me? Okay, Yalina, come with me. "
"Okay." Yalina answered obediently. She knew the relationship between Han Jin and Guevara. These two people were no longer friends, but elders and juniors who were related by blood. In the future, when she and Han Jin held their wedding, Guevara would be the only person qualified to host it. In other words, she was half a daughter-in-law to Guevara. Of course, she had to listen to him.
Han Jin couldn't help but smile bitterly. With Yalina's scheming, she would probably tell him everything in a few words. He hesitated for a moment and sighed. "Yalina, bring Mr. Guevara to my magic laboratory."
"You have a magic laboratory? Where is it? "Guevara was stunned.
"It's on the God of War. Come with me." Yalina said with a smile.
"You're not going?" Guevara asked.
"Yalina can give you an explanation." Han Jin was a little helpless. What he said to Yalina was the truth. Although he had schemed against Jeddes' Vatican for various benefits, he couldn't help but feel guilty. It would be too embarrassing for him to explain how he schemed against Jeddes, so he might as well let Yalina do it.
"Wait for me here. Don't leave." Guevara said.
"Understood." Han Jin shrugged his shoulders.
If an outsider were to overhear their conversation, they would never believe that Han Jin was the real Lord. In fact, as Han Jin's strength grew, Guevara's role in the Lord's Mansion had gradually decreased. However, the relationship between the two of them was not based on their strength. Perhaps this was what attracted Guevara the most. He could find a feeling here, as if he was facing a younger generation who needed guidance and help.
If Guevara didn't let him leave, then he really couldn't leave. He didn't want to anger Guevara. Although Guevara's body had been taken care of, it was still not very good. One day, when he really reached the peak, he hoped that this old man could live until that day and cheer for him.
Kane's mages were already dispersing the surrounding soldiers, while Fabian was thawing the giant dragon. Because the effect of the dragon's blood evaporated quickly, they had to finish the work as soon as possible.
Not long after, Guevara and Yalina hurried over. At this moment, Guevara's face was very strange. His white beard was fluttering even though there was no wind, and his eyes were shining brightly. When he saw Han Jin, he couldn't wait to ask, "Tell me, what did you get?!"
"A lot …"
"Get to the point!"
"Haha …" Han Jin laughed. "I won't talk about the magic laboratory. I won the trust of the Dragon Realm and Dragon City. Forza is dead, and the orcs lost more than 20 Behemoths. Their strength has been greatly reduced. Ampdula and Prudence are also dying. Gao Bin can completely control the elves. I believe that in the future, the elves will be our trustworthy comrades. Is this enough?"
Guevara was silent for a long time and let out a long sigh.
