In the blink of an eye, it was dusk. When Han Jin and Yalina walked out, the sky was already filled with sunlight. Only a few people knew about the turmoil in the Abyss World. There was no need to spread the news, as it would only make people more worried. Therefore, the atmosphere was very peaceful. Everyone was either cultivating in their own rooms, touring the city in groups, or chatting on the deck.
"This is for you." Han Jin gently placed the blood-red longbow on the table.
Sunier was stunned. She raised her head and said, "But my bow …"
Han Jin did not wait for Sunier to finish. He had already grabbed Sunier's hand. With a light tap of his left fingertip, an extremely thin purple light shot out and pierced Sunier's index finger. Then, Han Jin carefully squeezed out a drop of blood and placed Sunier's hand on the longbow.
The drop of blood was quickly absorbed by the Dragon Blood Wood. The back of the bow and the bowstring trembled slightly at the same time, making a faintly discernible sound. After a moment, everything returned to normal.
"Raphael, did you make it?" Gao Bin looked interested. Then, he said to Sunier, "Try it!"
Sunier did not refuse. She slowly stood up, raised the longbow, and casually took out an arrow from the quiver. Then, she took a deep breath and slowly pulled the bowstring.
Maybe it was because it was the first time that the bow had been stretched so tight, the back and the bowstring kept creaking. When the back of the bow was bent into a full moon, Sunier gently loosened her fingers. A black light flashed and disappeared in the golden sunset.
"Let me try." Gao Bin stretched out his hand.
Just as Sunier was about to pass the longbow to Gao Bin, Han Jin hurriedly grabbed Sunier's wrist. "This bow can only be used by Sunier. If anyone else touches it, they will be in trouble."
"Oh …" Gao Bin recalled Han Jin's actions and suddenly understood.
"And these." Han Jin took out another quiver. This quiver was slightly bigger than an ordinary quiver, and it contained more than sixty arrows.
Han Jin had told Hogan that the bow wasn't the main point. The reason why he had personally tempered Sunier's longbow was so that the arrows could unleash their full potential.
Sunier took the quiver and pulled out an arrow. She had only pulled out half of it when she saw that the shaft of the arrow was engraved with strange runes. Sunier smiled and pushed the arrow in her hand back into the quiver.
"That's all. You guys take a seat first. I have something to do outside." Han Jin smiled and walked to the side of the ship.
"Raphael, it's almost time for dinner. Eat before you leave," Gao Bin said.
"No." Han Jin shook his head.
"Where are you going?" Sunier asked.
"I'll make a trip to the Holy See." Han Jin waved his hand and disappeared into thin air.
"Those are all magic arrows made by Raphael himself, right?" Gao Bin also saw the strange runes on the arrows and urged, "Sunier, shoot an arrow and see how powerful it is!"
Sunier rolled her eyes at Gao Bin. "Do you think these magic arrows can be casually made?"
"There are more than sixty arrows. What's there to be reluctant about using only one?" Gao Bin said with a grin.
"No!" Sunier's answer was firm.
"Sister Sunier!" Yalina suddenly said with a slightly bitter tone. "He's leaving again!"
Sunier was stunned for a moment, then smiled. "He's only going to the Holy See for a while. He'll be back soon."
"No, he's going to Cold Shadow City in a few days," Yalina said. "Maybe … we'll have to wait for ten days before we can see him again."
"Cold Shadow City?" Gao Bin was shocked. "He's going to find that madman?"
"Yeah, he said he has some things to talk to Chesam about."
Sunier was stunned for a moment, then let out a long sigh and smiled bitterly. "He's always like this …" In order to keep up with Han Jin's footsteps, she had tried her best, but the gap between them was getting wider and wider. It wasn't that she was too slow, but that Han Jin was too fast.
"Yeah, he always wants to be alone …" Yalina's face was full of melancholy. She and Sunier were facing the same kind of confusion.
"By the way, Yalina, he's gone, but we can't just sit around," Sunier said. "I have something interesting to do. Do you want to join us?" Of course, she knew that Yalina was trying to get close to her to ease the awkwardness between them. After all, she was the older sister, so she had to do something in return.
"What is it?"
"Treasure hunting," Sunier said with a smile. "The secret stash of Morgan & Co.!"
"Okay, okay!" Yalina's eyes lit up. "When are we going?"
"Let's wait until he's gone." Sunier thought for a moment. "Otherwise, he'll be worried about us."
"Okay!" Yalina nodded vigorously, then suddenly realized a problem. "Sister Sunier, do you know where Morgan's secret stash is? Did Qi Li tell you? "
"Qi Li isn't too sure, but it doesn't matter. We have the treasure map." Sunier smiled. "Yalina, do you know why those idiots are so fixated on Qi Li?"
"Why?"
"Because they're trying to gain Qi Li's trust …" Sunier told Yalina everything she knew from Qi Li.
"It's actually very dangerous. If they knew that the magic seal was with Qi Li, they would've killed her long ago … Qi Li exposed her identity in Isolated Cliff City and almost put everyone in danger. Since then, she's been very careful … Those guys pretended to be from Morgan & Co., and they even gave the treasure map they stole from Morgan & Co to Qi Li …"
"Did Qi Li really take out the magic seal?" Yalina asked nervously.
"She's a little suspicious. After going through so much, it's not easy to win her trust … Those guys are very patient …"
"And then? And then? " When Yalina heard that the members of the Purple Flower Organization had used all kinds of tricks to gain Qi Li's trust, and even fought with the elven search team and orc warriors to protect Qi Li and the others, she couldn't help but feel worried.
"It was the clever little Joseph who noticed their scheme … But Sylvia wouldn't lie, so they had to … meet Adolf at the most dangerous moment. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to escape."
After hearing Sunier's story, Yalina let out a long sigh of relief. A weak woman, a careless female warrior, and a young man had a battle of wits and courage with a pack of wolves. The whole story had given her a thrilling feeling.
"Sister Sunier, even with the treasure map, you still don't know where the secret stash is?"
"No one knows the exact location." Sunier said, "In fact, it was not Dismark who first discovered the underground tunnel under the Holy Crown City, but Morgan & Co. They seemed to have discovered it a hundred years ago. Morgan's Secret Stash is in those underground tunnels. The map only shows an area. If we can find that area, we can certainly find the secret stash, but can we find the specific location among so many tunnels?"
"Oh no!" Yalina suddenly thought of something, and her face changed, "Raphael caused the volcanic explosion and completely destroyed the underground city. If Morgan's Secret Stash is near the underground city, it may have already …"
"No." Sunier shook her head, "There is no record of the underground city on the treasure map. Obviously, Morgan & Co. never knew that there was a city hidden under the underground city. If Morgan's Secret Stash is near the underground city, it's impossible that they didn't find it."
"But … since you are so confident, there must be other clues, right?" Gao Bin suddenly asked.
"Haha …" Sunier laughed, "The secret is in Qi Li's magic seal, and we already have a general direction."
"Treasure hunting, such an interesting thing … count me in," Gao Bin said.
"You have to go even if you don't want to." Sunier said, "We are acting without his knowledge. If something happens, I can't bear the responsibility."
"I will also call Uncle Gail, so that nothing will go wrong." Yalina said.
"Manager Gail will also leave? What about here? "Sunier was a little hesitant.
"It's okay." Gao Bin said, "Didn't you notice what the followers of Jedis are doing? They have been desperately setting up the magic array, haha … The sneak attack of the Dragon Realm has become an unforgettable lesson for them. Also, the Magic Legion has returned, and the Wizard Tower in the Holy Crown City can exert its greatest power. With your God of War, if the enemy wants to take down this city, they can only look at it and sigh, unless the enemy has strong masters like Raphael and Adolf. "
"Why do you say you?" Yalina asked, "We are partners!"
"Well …" Gao Bin was stunned, then laughed, "Well, I was wrong, it should be us."
While Sunier and Gao Bin were discussing how to find the treasure, Han Jin had already knocked on the door of Aude's courtyard. Not long after, an impatient voice came from inside, "Who is it?" With the voice, the door was pushed open, and Aude walked out. When he saw Han Jin, he couldn't help but be stunned.
Han Jin opened the door and walked slowly into the courtyard. Chipango and a few people hurriedly followed behind Han Jin.
"What are you doing here?" Aude said coldly. Although he had been seriously injured by Han Jin, it was not enough to make him afraid. His stiff questioning showed what kind of character he had.
"Is this how you talk to a Lord?" Han Jin said lightly, "Pay attention to your Knight's demeanor." Han Jin said as he walked forward, and soon approached Aude.
Aude took a deep breath, and this time, his wording was gentler, "Raphael, what are you doing here?"
"I heard that you are not in a good mood these days, so I came to see you."
Aude stretched out his arm, blocking the door, and said slowly, "My Lord, have you seen me now?"
"Am I not welcome?" Han Jin smiled and stopped in front of the door.
Aude remained silent, but his arm remained in front of Han Jin, not moving an inch.
"Aude, your door is too narrow for your status. Do you need my help?" Han Jin's smile became even more cheerful, revealing two rows of white teeth.
Aude's heart trembled. After interacting with Han Jin for so long, he gradually understood Han Jin's habits. Han Jin always liked to smile, and when Han Jin opened his mouth and revealed a cheerful smile, it was often a sign that something was about to be released, or was about to explode.
Aude's body involuntarily took a step back, but his arm was still supporting him in front of the door.
Before Han Jin came, he had planned to leave some face for the Holy See and try to thaw the relationship between the two sides, but Aude's behavior was too strange. He insisted on not letting him in, so it was obvious that he had something up his sleeve. Thinking of this, Han Jin's eyes turned cold. Channeling his spiritual sense, he punched out, and the tip of his fist hit the wall.
Boom … The wall, which was made of large square stones, looked extremely fragile. Under the force of Han Jin's punch, a hole with a radius of two feet had appeared in the wall. Countless crushed stones and powder splashed into the room and hit the wall inside. Bang! Bang! Bang! Sometimes, a crisp cracking sound could be heard, as if something had been smashed into pieces.
"You … What are you doing?!" Aude was furious, but at most, he questioned Han Jin. In this world, there were very few people who dared to take the initiative to attack Han Jin. Even if there were a few, it definitely wouldn't be him, Aude.
Han Jin coldly glanced at Aude, and in a flash, he had already appeared inside. Chipango waved his hand, and the few people behind him quickly spread out to the sides, rushing to every corner of the yard. Since they had fallen out, they could also openly search!
Aude saw the unscrupulous actions of Chipango and the others and was even more furious. But when he thought of Han Jin behind him, he gritted his teeth, turned around, and rushed in. His eyes were wide open in anger as he stared at Han Jin's back. "What do you want?!"
Han Jin ignored Aude and looked up and down the room. The room was originally very clean, but after his punch, it had become a mess. The carpet, the square table, and the chair were all covered in debris.
At this moment, light footsteps came from the stairs, and a figure came down from above.
Han Jin glanced at the figure from the corner of his eye and was so astonished that he couldn't move his eyes away and forgot what to say.
"Lord Raphael, why are you here?" Blanche looked around the messy room, and her expression was just as shocked as Han Jin's. "This is …"
"Blanche, are you alright??"
"What's wrong with me??"
"Search, search carefully, you must find Blanche!" Chipango's roar came from outside. "If she's alive, I want to see her! If she's dead, I want to see her corpse! "
Blanche wasn't stupid and immediately understood the reason for all this. She looked at Han Jin strangely and smiled bitterly. "Lord Raphael, are my standards for men really that bad? To think that I would treat a murderer as my husband … "
Han Jin was very embarrassed and smiled bitterly. "Why didn't you go back and tell us? Do you know how many days we've been looking for you? "
"The church is just ahead, and it's very inconvenient to go in and out. I didn't want to cause trouble for him," Blanche said softly. "I wanted to go back a long time ago, but he … he wouldn't let me go."
At this time, Chipango rushed in from outside. "Milord, outside …" He only managed to say a few words before he gaped at Blanche, dumbfounded.
"Alright, Chipango, take your men and leave." Han Jin took a deep breath. Whether he didn't want her to leave or didn't want her to leave, it was a private matter between the two of them. He had rushed in to rescue and catch the culprit, but the two of them were enjoying their reunion after a long separation. This scene was too confusing for him.
"Understood, my lord." Chipango also knew that he had made a big mistake. He grunted in response, turned around, and rushed out in a hurry.
The remaining three were speechless. Aude's complexion was better than before, but he was also conflicted. He was touched that Han Jin cared about Blanche's safety, but he didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he thought of him as a possible murderer.
"Lord Raphael, thank you for your concern. Thank you very much!" Blanche was the first to break the silence. "You saved me once in the Grand Light Empire, and again in the Beitman Empire. Now … I know that you treat me as a true friend. Thank you!"
"I'm a … how should I put it?" Han Jin shrugged his shoulders. "I've never been afraid to speculate on people's hearts with the worst malice. You may not understand and may think that I'm evil, but what I've done is just to better protect myself and my friends. In the past, I've tasted many similar lessons. It's only because of my good luck that I'm still alive today."
"I can understand." Blanche smiled. "If it weren't for you, I would've turned into dust a long time ago, right?"
"It's good that you can understand." Han Jin paused and coughed. "Well … I'll pay you back double for the things I broke."
"You're being too polite," Blanche said. "Lord Raphael, why don't you stay for dinner with us? Coincidentally, I've already prepared everything. "
"No need." Han Jin hurriedly waved his hand.
"Say something." Blanche looked at Aude.
Aude didn't say anything. Han Jin had once seriously injured him. That was a small matter, but he couldn't tolerate Han Jin's contempt for the Holy See. Although Han Jin had never said it publicly, his attitude towards the Holy See was enough to prove that other than God, no one could order the Holy See around.
At this time, there was a commotion outside. Through the broken door, they could clearly see a dozen Light Knights rushing in. The leader was Amijay.
Aude's expression changed. "Blanche, hurry up and hide!" With that, he hurried to the door.
"Aude, must you let me live such a shameful life?" Blanche sighed. "Just because I'm a heretic? Just because you're afraid that your companions will doubt your faith?! "
Aude's body stiffened. He turned around, ignoring Han Jin's presence. "Blanche, now's not the time to talk about this, okay?!"
"Let me do it." Han Jin walked past Aude and out the door.
Amijay had already rushed in and saw Han Jin. He was stunned. "My lord?" He hurriedly reached out and stopped the Light Knight behind him.
"A small misunderstanding. Sorry to disturb you." Han Jin chuckled.
Ai Mijie had already sheathed his long sword. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Aude's figure appear at the door. He was finally relieved, but he didn't greet Aude. Among the three paladins, he was the closest to Han Jin and was often ridiculed by Aude. The relationship between the two was getting worse and worse. Seeing that Aude was fine, he had fulfilled his duty and couldn't be bothered with anything else.
"My lord, what brings you here today?" Amij asked with a smile.
"Nothing, just looking around." Han Jin said. "Do you have time? Walk with me? "
"Sure." Amijay couldn't help but glance back. His eyes were cold, as if he was showing off to someone. His body naturally moved closer to Han Jin's side.
