"It has already happened." Jeddis's face was full of bitterness. He was no less talented than Green, and he had also realized the danger of the Church. That was why he had asked Han Jin to warn the Church. Unfortunately, Nicholas had already launched an all-out attack, and Han Jin could do nothing.
"Nicholas has already attacked the Unsetting Sun Mountains? Then the Church is now … "Green asked blankly.
"The Church only has a dozen Cardinals and hundreds of Light Knight left. Nicholas … has almost destroyed all of the Church's forces."
"What should I say …" Zagreen said helplessly. "Nicholas is still as ruthless as before, unless he doesn't move … Haha, as long as he pulls out his sword, he won't give his opponent any chance to win."
"Nikolay's power has its limits. At least I'm still alive. Adonis, Aude, and Amij have also escaped from his clutches." Jeddis's gaze fell on Zenglin's face. "And you're still alive."
"Alive? So what? " Glin smiled. The hidden meaning behind Jeddis' words was obvious. They were all alive, so they had to join forces to seek justice for themselves. Glin clearly expressed his own thoughts. He was not optimistic about the prospects of joining forces.
"As long as we're alive, we have a chance," Jeddis said lightly.
"If the hope is too slim, then it's not a chance, but a trap of suffering." Green did not want to talk about this anymore, so he changed the topic, "Where is this place?"
"I just told you that this is the Holy Crown City," Han Jin said softly.
"Can you find a place for me to rest? I'm too tired, "Green said.
"No problem." Han Jin nodded, "Harley?"
As he spoke, Harley's figure floated up from the stairs. Han Jin said, "Take Mr. Green to his room to rest."
"Yes, master." Harley immediately shrank back.
Green's eyes swept across the incomplete teleportation circle, and finally fell on Han Jin, "Is this giant ship really your masterpiece?"
"It can't be considered a masterpiece. I've even forgotten why I built this ship in the first place," Han Jin said with a smile.
Glancing at Han Jin again, Zeng Gelin slowly turned around and walked towards the stairs.
Watching Gerrin's figure disappear down the stairs, Jeddis suddenly said, "Gerrin's personality is a bit strange. Raphael, it won't be easy to pull him into our camp."
"It was Milord who saved him. What right does he have to reject Milord's invitation?" Adolf frowned.
For the sake of the Holy See, he really didn't want to quarrel with Adolf in front of Han Jin. However, he was worried that Adolf and Glynn would clash, which would make Han Jin's wish even more impossible to achieve. After deliberating over his words, Jeddes slowly said, "Your Excellency Adolf, everyone has the right to choose their own path. For example, you have chosen faith, but that doesn't mean that everyone has to follow your faith! That's right, it was Raphael … Master had saved him. Did this mean that he had to give up everything he had left? If that's the case, then what's the difference between saving him and not saving him? "
"I can understand the latter part, but the first part … I don't quite understand," Adolf said calmly, "Why are you talking about my faith?"
"That's just an example. I mean, don't force what you think is right onto others."
"Can faith be judged by right and wrong, Jeddis?" Jeddis! "Adolf retorted.
"Your Excellency Adolf, I don't want to discuss doctrines with you here!" Jeddis said.
"The holiness of this world is shaped by the blue sky, and the holiness of the soul is shaped by great faith." Adolf didn't care whether Jeddis wanted to discuss it or not. He continued, "If the sky dies, holiness will be hard to find in this world. If faith dies, your soul will fall forever!"
"What is my soul?" Jeddis was so angry that he laughed.
"You know it, Jeddis!"
Han Jin felt a headache coming on. Jeddis was right. His relationship with Adolf was really getting worse and worse. However, Han Jin couldn't interrupt. If he discussed doctrines with Adolf and Jeddis, he would be exposed in less than three minutes.
"Your Excellency Adolf, my faith is to find a place for the souls of all those who live in the abyss of suffering, and to do my best to give them a guarantee. Your faith is to be the most loyal servant. We just have different beliefs. This doesn't mean that one is nobler or holier than the other," Jeddis said coldly. Jeddes said coldly, "I have to repeat myself. Do not impose your requirements on others."
"You are a false believer." A look of pity appeared in Adolf's eyes. He even cast a glance at Han Jin, as if asking, "Did you hear that?"
"If the god you believe in allows his believers to live in suffering without giving them enlightenment or guarantee, then you must be a false god!" Jeddis retorted. He was getting angrier and angrier. Jeddis had lost all his magic after the accident, so he couldn't warn the Holy See. However, he still couldn't forgive himself because he was the archbishop of the Grand Light Empire. He had the responsibility to see through Nicholas's conspiracy. He could only blame himself for being tricked. He had to bear at least half of the responsibility for the destruction of the Holy See. However, he had buried all his guilt and pain deep in his heart. When he saw Gerrin and recalled the past, he couldn't help but explode!
"How dare you!!" Adolf was furious.
"What are you two doing?!" Han Jin had no choice but to stand up. If he was a step late, Jeddis and Adolf might fight. That would be interesting …
"Did I say anything wrong?" Jeddis sneered.
"Okay, okay, Jeddis, you can go back first." Han Jin tried to smooth things over. He had already decided that he wouldn't give Jeddis and Adolf a chance to meet in the future. As for the Holy See, they could make as much trouble as they wanted.
Jeddis was silent for a moment, then lowered his head and walked to the side of the ship.
Seeing Jeddis leave the God of War, Han Jin finally breathed a sigh of relief and said to Adolf, "I heard from Jeddis that you are a warrior priest, but I found that you don't seem to have a suitable weapon. This is the Hellfire Gloves, I hope you like them."
"Thank you, sir." Adolf took the Hellfire Gloves. In fact, as a warrior priest, he wasn't used to using the power of magic tools. However, this was a gift from Han Jin, so whether it was useful or not, he had to accept it.
"Your Excellency Adolf, the Holy See can't withstand any more storms. You should understand what I mean," Han Jin said softly.
Adolf opened his mouth, but when he thought about the declining Holy See, what he wanted to say suddenly turned into a long sigh.
* * * *
It was a quiet night. At dawn the next day, Han Jin woke up early. Majordomo Gail had found the army of the Abyss World underground, which meant that the war could break out at any time. There were too many things to prepare, so he had to buy time.
The angels had always been a problem. Although he had spent a lot of energy on the two angels, when he asked the angels to treat Green, there were signs of them going out of control. Did he have to completely refine them? Then, one day, when he collected all the Holy Armors, would he be able to use the power of the 'law'?
Now, he had the Holy Battle Robe, and he had to refine another angel. Time was limited, and his energy was even more limited. Would the Abyssal Race wait that long?
When he talked with Guevara about the upcoming world war the day before yesterday, he deliberately emphasized the power of the Great Demon Donald and belittled the Fallen Angel Catherine. In fact, he didn't have much confidence in his heart. He had learned enough information from Solomon's library. Although the power of the Cherub Catherine was not as strong as that of the Archangel Alpha, she had eternal life. The word 'eternal' was usually only qualified to be used by gods. In other words, the Cherub Catherine and the Archangel Alpha were both infinitely close to being gods.
Could he really fight against the Cherub Catherine?
Even if he could, he had no way to decide the battlefield. As the saying goes, when the city gate is on fire, the fish in the moat will suffer. How could he protect the Holy Crown City and his friends on the God of War?
Han Jin thought silently. In fact, fear was not a bad thing. Only with fear could he work hard and improve himself. Unfortunately, any form of progress needed time to accumulate and settle down. Han Jin needed time, but he didn't have time.
Just as Han Jin was thinking, Gao Bin lazily walked up from below. At a glance, he saw Han Jin sitting there alone. He was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "So early?"
"You are also early." Han Jin also smiled.
It was indeed very early. The sky was not yet bright. On the deck, there were only a dozen mountain warriors on night duty patrolling the ship's side. The thunderbirds on both sides of the ship were still immersed in their dreams. It was very quiet all around.
Gao Bin sat opposite Han Jin, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "By the way, Raphael, I have something to tell you."
"What's the matter?"
"The war is about to break out. Hurry up and arrange your marriage with Sunier and Yalina."
Han Jin almost choked on his own saliva. He stared at Gao Bin blankly and didn't know what to say. What was this brother-in-law thinking? The world war was about to break out, and he didn't even have time to do business. Why … No, marriage seemed to be business too …
"At least get engaged." Gao Bin said softly: "This is good for stabilizing people's hearts. Think about it, the Abyssal Race is about to attack, and you still have the mood to arrange a wedding. It means that you don't care about the Abyssal Race at all."
"Does Sunier know?"
"What does she know?" Gao Bin's expression was a bit strange: "If you don't propose, how would she know?!"
"I mean, you should tell her first, and then I will …"
"Are you still afraid that she will reject you?" Gao Bin smiled and waved his hand: "No, I can promise."
"Are you so anxious to push your only sister out?"
"I'm not anxious." Gao Bin was silent for a moment: "Accidents can happen at any time in the war. Don't leave yourself with regrets."
"What about you?" Han Jin asked softly: "When are you getting married?"
"Me? Who am I marrying? "Gao Bin was stunned.
"Lydia, of course." Han Jin purposely reminded Gao Bin.
Gao Bin was startled. He glanced around in a panic and lowered his voice to the lowest possible volume. "Hey! Hey! Hey! You can't joke around! It's okay to tell me, but if Lydia hears, she might cause trouble. "
"What? You think Lydia is not good enough for you? "
"That's not what I meant." Gao Bin shook his head: "To be honest, Lydia used to be very beautiful, not worse than Sunier at all."
"I believe that." Han Jin said. Only half of Lydia's face was destroyed, and the other half was enough to prove her charm.
"At that time, Lydia, who was born with the ability to use magic, was the pride of the elves. I don't know how many elves pursued her, but her standards were too high. She always rejected all the pursuers and looked down on all of them. After a while, the young men were scared, and no one dared to pursue Lydia anymore." Gao Bin reminisced about his youth with a nostalgic tone.
"It's not because of time, right?" Han Jin smiled and said: "Is it because after you and Lydia became friends, those pursuers gradually disappeared?"
Gao Bin was stunned. He thought about it seriously and looked at Han Jin suspiciously. He didn't know what Han Jin meant.
"Oh right, Gao Bin, tell me about your love history." Han Jin sighed as he spoke. He always thought that he was slow in this aspect, but he didn't expect Gao Bin to be even slower. He had already said it so clearly, but Gao Bin still didn't understand?!
"There's nothing to talk about." Gao Bin's eyes dimmed: "One chance encounter is a comedy, two chance encounters are a tragedy."
"Did … they pursue you first?" Han Jin suddenly thought of a question.
"It's not about who took the initiative. When you have feelings for each other, feelings slowly grow."
"Then do you have feelings for Lydia?" Han Jin immediately asked.
"Of course, she and I are partners in life and death!" Gao Bin looked at Han Jin from head to toe: "What's wrong with you today? Why can't the topic leave Lydia? Don't tell me … you want to marry her? I'm telling you, you can't! "
We've been through life and death together, brother, haven't you realized your own heart? Han Jin didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "I'm not crazy …"
"You mean … anyone who dares to marry Lydia is crazy?" Gao Bin's eyes widened in anger. Although he was a little slow when it came to his own problems, in other aspects, he reacted very quickly.
"If I want to marry another one, maybe Yalina will forgive me, but Sunier … I don't think she'll ever see me again." Han Jin smiled bitterly.
"It's good that you know." Gao Bin was very satisfied with Han Jin's attitude.
"Gao Bin, let's imagine." After all, it was Han Jin's first time being a matchmaker. He didn't want to fail so inexplicably, so he tried to change the topic.
"Imagine what?"
"If you go back in time and get together with Lydia again, and one day, Lydia suddenly starts to pursue you. At that time, you haven't met them yet, hehe … you should know who I'm talking about." Han Jin paused: "Would you accept Lydia?"
Gao Bin was stunned for a long time. Suddenly, his eyes became slightly flustered, and then he said in a dissatisfied voice: "Don't talk nonsense, not everything can be imagined."
"Actually, Lydia is quite pitiful." Han Jin sighed softly.
"Are you talking about her appearance?" Gao Bin said slowly: "Raphael, this is fine between us, but don't say it in front of Lydia. She won't accept anyone's sympathy."
"It seems like you know her very well."
"I've known her for decades, what do you think?"
"Can't you see? Lydia already has someone she likes! "Han Jin said.
"What?" Gao Bin was stunned and hurriedly said: "Who is it? Lydia never mentioned it to me! "
"How would I know?" Han Jin said impatiently: "But, I can guess that the one who can move Lydia's heart must be a very, very good elf!"
"Of course!" Gao Bin agreed with Han Jin, but he was still doubtful: "Are you telling the truth?"
"I can swear, the source is absolutely reliable!"
"Who did you hear it from?"
"It doesn't matter who said it. What matters is who Lydia likes!" Han Jin said.
"Who could it be …" Gao Bin muttered to himself. He scanned through the elites of his race in his mind, but he couldn't think of anyone who was qualified to move Lydia.
"That's why I said she's pitiful. She was immature and timid before, so she didn't dare to say it out loud. After her appearance was ruined, she felt ashamed and didn't dare to say it out loud."
"She had someone she liked before her appearance was ruined? That's not possible … We were always together back then. If she really liked someone, she would've told me. "
Han Jin's eyes were a little blank at this moment. After a moment, he said weakly: "Gao Bin, what do you want for breakfast?"
"I'm fine with anything." Gao Bin said. Han Jin changed the topic too quickly, and the jump was too big. In the blink of an eye, they went from a few decades ago to the present. From the beautiful love story to the dining table, it made Gao Bin feel a little uncomfortable.
Han Jin really didn't know what to do. Most importantly, he only felt that Lydia liked Gao Bin from her eyes and actions, but he couldn't be sure. If Lydia didn't like Gao Bin that way, the joke would be too big. So he could only try to give Gao Bin as much advice as possible, and let Gao Bin realize it himself.
Maybe his words were too vague, or maybe Gao Bin was too slow. Anyway, today's effort was in vain. Should he ask Lydia out for a talk? But when he thought about the other elves' comments about Lydia, he felt that it was better to be safe. Telling Lydia directly was the last resort.
"When I came out, I saw you in a daze. What were you thinking about?" Gao Bin asked.
"Many, many things. For example, how to fight against the Fallen Angel Catherine. It's said that black dragons are immune to all magic. How do we kill them when we fight them? What do we need to do to ensure the effectiveness of our alliance when we cooperate with Chesam? What is the attitude of the Lord of Depew City? Anyway … there are many, many things. " Han Jin smiled bitterly: "Now there's one more thing. How do we propose to Sunier and Yalina …"
