Constance sat on a tree stump as she stared blankly ahead. Ever since she became a prisoner of war, and the veins in her limbs were severed, her personality had undergone a drastic change. She used to be an elf who loved to talk and laugh, but now she would not speak for hours at a time, and would just sit there in a daze. While Han Jin had personally healed her, only the physical wounds had healed. The psychological trauma was still there, and the painful experience flashed before her eyes from time to time, suffocating her like a nightmare.
There were hundreds of elves busy at the side, and Gao Bin had assigned her a large group of elves to follow the tracks left behind by the Abyssal army. The goal was to find out the strength of the army, and if possible, it would be best to estimate the exact numbers of each race. It was not difficult, as the Abyssal soldiers would definitely need to set up camp to rest, and from the size of the camp, she could make a rough guess.
Of course, just calculating the enemy's strength was far from knowing the enemy's strength, as the sudden appearance of a powerful being could easily turn the tide of the battle.
Just as Constance was lost in her thoughts, the silver pegasus warriors who were wandering in the distance turned their heads alertly, and looked towards the southeast. There was the faint sound of heavy hooves coming from afar, and not long after, a few black dots leaped out of the forest and charged across the river, heading straight for the silver pegasus warriors who were patrolling.
Following that, a dozen more black dots leaped out of the forest and chased after them relentlessly.
The elves all had sharp vision, and they quickly realized that there were seven to eight human Knights riding armored bulls in front of them, and behind them was a group of minotaurs!
The silver pegasus warriors quickly urged their pegasus to charge towards the main group, and as they galloped, they sounded the alarm of an enemy attack.
The alarm could be heard from five to six miles away, and the elves who were investigating the ruins of the camp heard it. Only Constance was still sitting on the tree stump in a daze.
"My Lady!" An elven captain quickly walked over, "Enemy attack! Enemy attack! "
"Enemy attack?" Constance was jolted awake, and immediately jumped onto her silver pegasus. One by one, the elven patrols gathered towards the main group from all directions, and in just a few minutes, they formed a battle formation.
"It's the minotaurs! They are chasing after a few human Knights! "The silver pegasus warrior who first discovered the enemy shouted as he galloped.
"How many enemies?" Constance was calm.
"More than ten!"
"Prepare to save him!" Constance shouted, and then spurred the silver pegasus forward.
The elves followed behind Constance in a straight line formation. It was the most advantageous formation for the elves to attack. If they wanted to surround the enemy, the two flanks would use the silver pegasi's extreme speed to close in on them. If the situation turned bad, they would have to retreat, and the elves could fan out in all directions to preserve as much of their strength as possible.
Soon, Knights riding armored bulls appeared before Constance's eyes. Seeing an army suddenly appear before them, the Knights were at a loss. Perhaps it was a gamble, as one of the Knights waved a tattered flag with all his might, and his speed slowed down.
Constance ignored the Knight. Her eyes were fixed on the Minotaurs as she slowly drew her bow.
An arrow shot out, brushing past the waving flag and piercing into the eye of a Minotaur.
The Minotaur cried out in pain as he fell backward, but the next moment, he got up and ran backward. The other Minotaurs turned around and followed behind their comrade.
Constance's eyes showed a hint of pain. While the distance was too far, if she was at her peak, the Minotaurs would not have survived! The wound had healed, but her strength had not fully recovered.
"After them!" Constance squeezed the words out from between her teeth, and continued galloping forward.
The few Knights riding armored bulls realized that the newcomers were not enemies, and were overjoyed. The leader of the Knights wanted to greet Constance, but Constance ignored him and galloped past him.
The elves displayed their superb horsemanship, and in the blink of an eye, the entire Pegasus troop had passed by the Knights, but there were no scrapes, and a few armored bulls let out an uneasy snort.
Constance drew her bow again and aimed at the back of a Minotaur's neck. The Minotaur's speed was very different from the silver pegasus', and this time, the distance between the two was less than three hundred meters. With the sound of the bowstring vibrating, the Minotaur fell forward.
The rest of the elves within the effective range also drew their bows, and the sound of the bowstring vibrating, and the sound of arrows piercing through the air filled the air. The fleeing Minotaurs fell one by one, and in the blink of an eye, more than half of them were dead.
The leader of the Armored Bull Knight stared blankly at the backs of the elves, and suddenly remembered something. He turned his armored bull around and chased after the elves, "Come back! Danger! "
He could not be blamed for not warning, and after being chased for a few days and nights, with hundreds of his companions falling one after another under the enemy's blade, he was exhausted and on the verge of breaking down, and his mind could not react at all.
In the end, there were only three Minotaurs left, and they used their hands and legs to escape across the river and into the forest. Constance suddenly pulled on the reins and raised her right arm, signaling the elves to stop chasing, because she smelled something uneasy.
Gao Bin had assigned Constance elite warriors, and when they saw Constance raise her right arm, the elves quickly pulled on their reins, and the entire formation remained orderly.
"Danger …" The Armored Bull Knight's panting roar came from behind, "There are many Minotaurs! Danger … "
The Armored Bull Knight's warning came a little too late, and the forest in the distance suddenly trembled, and then a tall and muscular figure jumped out of the forest, waving a shining war axe as they roared and charged. If not for Constance's uneasiness, with the speed of the silver pegasi's charge, both sides would have clashed head-on.
Constance estimated the enemy's numbers at the first moment, and a cold smile appeared on her lips. If the enemy had Evil Eyes and Medusas working together, it would be a headache for her. A group of Minotaurs would be a piece of cake for the elven warriors!
Constance whistled, and the silver pegasus warriors split into two groups like flowing water, opening up a path in the middle before slowly retreating.
This was the elves' usual tactic against melee armies, as the two groups retreated in different directions, and no matter which direction the enemy chased, the other group would mercilessly attack. If the enemy split up as well, it would be even better, as the two groups of elves would become four, and if the enemy split up again, the four groups would become eight, or even fight on their own. In a battle between a fast-moving archer and a sprinting warrior, the former would undoubtedly have the upper hand, and even if they could not deal any fatal damage, they would be able to wear down the enemy.
"And … and there are manticores!!" The Bull Knight cried out with difficulty.
Constance's expression changed, and she was both shocked and suspicious. If there were manticores among the pursuers, it was hard to imagine that the Bull Knight would have made it this far, and they would have been killed long ago. But judging from the Knight's tone, it did not sound like he was spouting nonsense.
"Run!" The Barbarian Bull Rider roared.
Constance gritted her teeth and shouted, "Retreat!!" After the war with the orcs, the overall strength of the elves had been greatly reduced, and they could not afford any more losses. And the warriors that Gao Bin had given her were all elites, and these warriors were very precious, and she had the responsibility to bring them back in one piece. She would rather believe it than not, and she did not dare to take the risk.
When the elves heard Constance's order, they sped up and retreated like the tide.
"Hey …" The Bull Knight was stunned, and quickly turned his armored bull around, and led the charge, fleeing into the distance.
Unfortunately, the armored bull's speed was barely satisfactory, and the silver pegasus warriors easily overtook him.
"Hey, hey, hey … …" The Barbarian Bull Knight looked at the backs of the silver pegasus warriors and then turned to look at the Minotaurs behind them. The Iron Barbarian Bulls couldn't even compare to the Minotaurs at the front. They were only able to escape here because of the sacrifices of their comrades. Seeing the enemy get closer and closer, the Barbarian Bull Knight became anxious and angry, "Wait for me … …"
Constance hesitated, and slowed down, waiting for the Bull Knight.
The Bull Knight let out a sigh of relief, and was so touched that he almost cried. When he caught up to Constance, he quickly smiled and said, "Hello, I am …"
Constance coldly pointed to the front, "Run!"
The Bull Knight swallowed his self-introduction, and tried his best to steer the armored bull past Constance.
Constance drew her longbow, and an arrow shot out, hitting the armored bull's butt.
Even though Constance did not use too much strength, the distance was just too close, and the armored bull let out a low roar, and suddenly sped up.
"F * ck …" The Barbarian Bull Knight couldn't help but curse in exasperation, but he tactfully shut his mouth.
Constance did not bother with the Bull Knight, and simply said, "Follow us, and after thirty miles, our men will meet you." In the time it took for her to say that, Constance had already overtaken him.
The silver pegasus' speed was indeed enviable, and the Bull Knight wanted to say something, but he stopped. He wanted to say, 'Can't you bring me along?' But when he thought about the silver pegasus' characteristics, he gave up.
"Damn it, that's vicious! Can't you at least say hello? " The Bull Knight gritted his teeth as he looked at Constance's back, and muttered softly. He then turned back to look at his pursuers, and was satisfied with their current speed, but he was the last one, and the psychological pressure was too great. He hesitated for a moment, and then mumbled, "Sorry, buddy …" With that, he reached back and flicked the arrow.
At least a quarter of the arrow was embedded deep into the armored bull's butt, and the bull could not bear the pain, and let out another low roar, and its eyes had turned red, and white foam was pouring out of its mouth, as if it had turned into a mad bull, and its running speed increased again.
The rest of the Bull Knight saw the elves retreating, and decided to continue running forward. Unfortunately, they met the same fate as their leader, and were easily overtaken.
It was said that the secret of running away was not to outrun the enemy, but to outrun one's companions. The few Bull Knight gave it their all, and ran for their lives.
A moment later, the sound of heavy hooves came from behind, and they saw their leader had appeared in their midst, and they watched as their leader overtook them. First, it was half a bull's body, then two meters, three meters, and the distance was getting wider and wider. It was only when they saw the arrow behind the armored bull's tail that they realized what was going on, and they all drew their longswords and killed their mounts. Only two Knight hesitated, and did not dare to attack.
The leading Bull Knight turned back and roared, "If we run another fifteen miles, we will be saved! Quick! "He purposely left out half the distance, worried that the exhausted Knight would give up on the will to live.
When they heard that, the two Knight immediately drew their longswords. The armored bull's running speed was average, and it had the advantage of being able to run for a long time. But at that moment, they no longer had any concerns, and ran to safety first.
* * * *
On the God of War, Yalina and Zenglin were installing the Demon Annihilation Crossbows. At the bow of the ship, there were already four ballistas, and at the stern of the ship, there were five ballistas. Although the deck of the God of War was large, the ballistas took up a lot of space. Plus, there were more than ten Titans, so there was no place to put them.
Plus, everyone was used to finding a peaceful and comfortable feeling on the deck. They gathered together to chat and joke, and it was a lot of fun. If all the tables and chairs were to be removed, except for the mountain warriors who obeyed orders, everyone would oppose it.
Morrisons, Sassoux, and Léger sat at a table and laughed. The three brothers hadn't seen each other for a long time, and these days, they couldn't stop chatting because they had a lot of new topics to talk about. Morrisons tried his best to brag about how his strength had improved by leaps and bounds. As long as there was a chance, he would clamor for a duel with Sassoux and Léger, and even said that he would fight with them together. Sassoux and Léger were treated as super VIPs in Depew City and enjoyed all kinds of benefits. Of course, he would use this to annoy Morrisons.
After chatting for a while, Morrisons stood up and walked to the side of the ship. Suddenly, he fell down and hugged the side of the ship, shouting, "Ah … Ah … I'm going to fall, sister Dominique, save me …" Before he could finish his words, Morrisons burst into laughter and almost burst into tears.
Sassoux and Léger held back their laughter until their faces turned red. Zenglin looked over and shook his head with a smile. He was very emotional. It was good to be young …
In fact, most people were laughing, with only two exceptions. One was Dominique, and the other was the female Titan beside her.
Chesam had shown enough sincerity and thought very carefully. Among the Titans he had sent, four were female Titans. Besides protecting Dominique, they also had the intention of serving her. Everyone could see that this was a sign of reconciliation from Chesam to Dominique.
What was interesting was that one of the female Titans actually fainted from height, so after boarding the God of War, she became a big joke. The side of the God of War was normal for humans, but it was too short for a Titan. It only reached the knees of a Titan. As a result, when the God of War lifted off, the female Titan immediately collapsed and hugged the side of the ship tightly, begging Dominique to save her …
"Morrisons!" Dominique was furious. She had been lonely for too long. When she saw her own people, of course she would protect them. The female Titan seemed to be inexperienced. She was so angry that her eyes turned red, and crystal clear tears kept rolling in her eyes.
"Just kidding, just kidding …" Moxinke said with a smile.
"I'm not talking to you!" Dominique's face darkened. She then shouted, "Raphael!"
"Don't … don't …" Morrisons panicked. He was not afraid of anything else, but he was afraid of that terrible special training. Although he had improved a lot, he definitely did not want to go through it again. What was even more frightening was that Han Jin had revealed that if he caused trouble, he would be thrown back into the magic laboratory again.
"Apologize!" Dominique shouted.
If he had really made a mistake and hurt someone, Morrisons would apologize himself without anyone saying anything. However, he did not think that he had done anything wrong. It was just a joke. Moreover, that female Titan was too young. She would cry so easily. He felt that he had done it for her good. If she did not mature quickly, she might be eliminated mercilessly if there were any accidents.
Morrisons rolled his eyes and suddenly shouted, "Jenny … good sister, save me, save me …"
He was still imitating Jenny's behavior. This time, even Dominique was so angry that she laughed. Jenny, on the other hand, cried out in grievance.
"Morrisons, she's just a child. Is it fun to bully her?!" Dominique's face tightened again.
Just then, a voice came. "What's wrong?" Han Jin walked onto the deck with the voice.
"Morrisons made Jenny cry!" The two of them said in unison, and two fingers pointed straight at Morrisons. Then, Sassoux and Léger looked at each other and smiled. There was no need for words.
Just then, Gao Bin's figure rose from the side of the ship, followed by Constance. Finally, a Knight in a very sorry state appeared. Gao Bin went straight to the point. "Raphael, something happened!"
"What happened?" Han Jin walked onto the deck and heard Gao Bin's words. He quickly asked.
"Lord Raphael!" The sorry Knight quickly knelt on one knee. "Please allow me, on behalf of the Freedom Confederation, to pay my respects to the strongest person on the continent!"
The atmosphere suddenly became calm. Guevara's expression became very strange as he exchanged glances with Han Jin and Gao Bin.
"Constance, explain the situation to the Lord first," Gao Bin said softly.
"Yes," Constance replied and told him everything that had happened.
"What about the Minotaurs? Are there any captives? "Guevara asked.
"They only chased for a few miles before retreating." Constance said, "I was worried that something might have happened, so I didn't leave anyone to investigate. All the soldiers returned, but there were no captives."
"An emissary of the Freedom Confederation? You made a special trip to the Holy Crown City … to ask for help? "Guevara said slowly.
"Yes … Yes." The Knight's expression was very awkward. He had been kneeling for a long time, but no one asked him to get up. Moreover, they went straight to the point without any delay, which made him very uncomfortable.
"It seems that the Freedom Confederation's situation is not good." Gao Bin smiled. "You came to ask for help from Raphael, but you don't even know what kind of person Raphael is? Is it that urgent? "
"I …" The Knight began to feel dizzy again. The other party's words seemed easy to understand, but he just couldn't.
"How did you think of coming to the Holy Crown City to ask for help?" Han Jin asked.
"We caught some abyssal captives, and according to them, Lord Raphael injured the Fallen Angel Catherine in a fair duel, so … so …" The Knight looked at Guevara with pleading eyes.
Everyone couldn't help but be speechless. It was true that Catherine was defeated, but not by Han Jin. To be exact, the one who defeated Catherine was actually herself.
However, no one was stupid enough to deny this kind of rumor. Guevara was very happy. It had always been Guevara's wish to push Han Jin onto the throne. This old man had poured his life's efforts into Han Jin, hoping that Han Jin could walk towards the glory of his dreams.
The arrival of the Freedom Confederation's emissary made Guevara acutely aware that an excellent opportunity had appeared. Of course, Han Jin could directly call himself the King of the Holy Crown City, and no one would object. The problem was, although the territory under Han Jin's rule included several main cities, for a King, such a territory was somewhat thin.
If the Freedom Confederation was added, then everything would be different. After the continent fell into a state of endless war for hundreds of years, no one had ever established a trans-regional empire.
The Knight kneeling on the ground was about to faint. The continuous pursuit and long journey had already exhausted him physically and mentally. After kneeling for such a long time, even an iron man would not be able to hold on. He even suspected that the legendary Lord Raphael in front of him had some kind of bad habit. Otherwise, why would he always look at him with a smile?
"You are right, Catherine was indeed defeated by our Lord Raphael." Guevara made the decision for Han Jin and directly took over this big hat, "But, why didn't you go to the Grand Light Empire?"
That Knight couldn't help but stare blankly at Guevara's words. No one would call him Lord. Could it be that the one he was kneeling to was not Raphael? This was a big loss of face …
As if seeing through his doubts, Guevara bowed to Han Jin and introduced, "This is our Lord Raphael. Isn't the Freedom Confederation's information a bit too limited? You don't even know our Lord's age? "
That Knight's face was bitter and he secretly cursed, 'That elf was clearly calling out Raphael. Why did you jump out and say that?' However, at this moment, he naturally didn't dare to show the slightest bit of complaint. He could only accept his fate and kneel to Han Jin. "Please forgive my ignorance. I really can't believe that the wise and mighty Lord Raphael is actually so young. Looking at the history of the continent for thousands of years, you are the only one who has achieved so much at your age. Words can no longer express the shock in my heart …"
It seemed that the Freedom Confederation didn't send him as an emissary for no reason. After saying this, that Knight's face no longer had a trace of embarrassment. It was as if he had rehearsed this in advance. A series of flattery came out of his mouth one after another.
"Alright, you can get up." Han Jin said somewhat helplessly. Seeing this guy's enthusiasm, if he didn't interrupt him, he was afraid that he would continue talking until the sun set.
That Knight immediately stood up when he heard this. He was secretly pleased with himself. Sure enough, no one could stop his flattery. Even the legendary Lord Raphael was no exception.
At this moment, Guevara turned around and silently said a string of characters to Han Jin. He even made a hand gesture. This scene just happened to fall into Green's eyes and he couldn't help but be startled. However, with Green's shrewdness, he quickly figured out the crux of the matter and lowered his head to continue working. He couldn't help but mutter in a low voice, "Create momentum? This guy really doesn't let go of any opportunity … "
When Guevara said 'Angel', Han Jin also revealed a trace of surprise at first, but he immediately reacted. Guevara wanted him to summon the Angel. Without a doubt, as long as the Angel appeared, it would definitely shock the Freedom Confederation's emissary. Looking at the entire continent, who could have an Angel as a servant?
Han Jin couldn't help but bitterly smile in his heart. Such a high-profile action was completely out of line with his state of mind. However, he also understood Guevara's intentions. This old man was racking his brains to push him to a position where he would be the center of attention. Han Jin had always had a special feeling towards Guevara. He couldn't bear to refuse Guevara's request. Moreover, doing so would also benefit Han Jin.
Han Jin tilted his head. Harley understood tacitly and quietly sank below the deck.
At this time, the Knight respectfully bowed to Han Jin. "Please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Bauer. I'm the commander of the Knight Regiment of the Freedom Confederation."
Everyone was somewhat surprised. They didn't think that this glib-tongued guy would actually be a commander. Could it be that the promotion of the Freedom Confederation depended on one's mouth? Léger and Sassoux coincidentally looked towards Morrisons. In their hearts, they were thinking that if they threw Morrisons there, he should also be able to get an official position …
Naturally, Bauer didn't know what the others were thinking. He continued to speak in a sincere tone, "The appearance of the Abyss Army is a disaster for all the races on the surface. The Freedom Confederation is the first to bear the brunt of the Abyss Army's all-out attack. Under these circumstances, it would be very difficult for the Freedom Confederation to completely annihilate them. I hope that Sir Raphael can lend a helping hand. You should know that the Abyss Army's target isn't any city or alliance, but everyone on the surface. Today, it's our Freedom Confederation. Tomorrow, their target may be your Holy Crown City. "
Han Jin looked at Bauer with a pondering gaze. In his heart, he maliciously speculated, 'Annihilate them all? I'm afraid that the ones who will be annihilated will be you. Otherwise, why would you run all the way here from so far away? '
Guevara frowned. 'Do the people of the Freedom Confederation like to boast like this? If not for Catherine and the vampires being attracted to the Holy Crown City by Han Jin, I'm afraid that the Freedom Confederation would have already vanished. '
"How long can you hold on?" Guevara bluntly asked.
Bauer stared blankly for a moment. He didn't understand why Guevara suddenly asked such a question. But he still smiled and replied, "It's not difficult for the Freedom Confederation to protect itself. The difficult part is how to minimize the losses of this disaster …"
"Then we can rest assured. You don't need to be too anxious. Dispatching troops is a big matter. We still need to discuss it slowly." Guevara rudely interrupted Bauer's words. This captain of the Knight Regiment should not be playing tricks in front of Guevara. After learning that Catherine had been injured by Han Jin, he didn't even have the time to figure out what kind of person Han Jin was before he rushed here. The other party's goal had already been exposed, and there was no point in hiding it. Not to mention that the people in charge of the God of War were a group of shrewd people. If he wanted to play tricks here, he would only be humiliating himself.
"First, let's let Envoy Bauer rest for a while. It's such a long journey. He must be tired." Han Jin cooperated with Guevara.
Bauer didn't know what to say. Tired of the journey? That was easy to say. In order to break out of the encirclement, he had sacrificed hundreds of his companions' lives. He had fought bloody battles and cut through thorns. How did it become a simple journey in the mouth of these people?
"But …" Bauer was about to say something to salvage the current unfavorable situation, but he was stunned by the scene that suddenly appeared in front of him.
Two angels with white wings of light behind them knelt in front of Han Jin and said in unison, "Master!"
How is this possible?! Bauer's eyeballs almost fell out of their sockets. Oh my god, what am I seeing?! Angels of Light staying in the world?! Wait, what did they call Raphael just now? Master?!
"Get up." Han Jin said casually. He didn't even look at the two angels, as if they were just ordinary existences.
Bauer was thoroughly shocked. He looked at Han Jin with a bit of fear in his eyes. He couldn't accept that the supreme Angels of Light were prostrating at the feet of this young man. Although the Angels of Light's strength was only equivalent to human super class experts, they represented the will of God and the glory of God. Angels could fight for humans, but they would never do anything that would harm their dignity. In a sense, dignity was more important than their lives.
"What? Is there something else? "Han Jin looked at Bauer as if he was wondering why he was still standing there.
Bauer suddenly woke up and threw himself at Han Jin's feet. He cried loudly, "Lord Raphael, please help the Freedom Federation!"
Han Jin was startled. Wasn't this reaction a bit too intense? Bauer's psychological defense had collapsed so quickly that all of Han Jin's backup plans had been rendered useless.
"What happened?" Han Jin pretended to be curious and asked.
Bauer hated that he couldn't ruthlessly slap himself. Why did he always want to preserve his damned face? Everything he had seen with his own eyes showed that not only was this young man the only person who could save the Freedom Federation, but Bauer could also imagine that this lord who had an angel as a servant was destined to become a legend in the entire continent. Who could stop his footsteps?
Bauer was frightened by Han Jin's display of strength. He didn't dare to hide anything and told Han Jin about the Freedom Federation's situation without holding back. In fact, Han Jin's guess wasn't wrong. The Freedom Federation was indeed in imminent danger. More than half of the cities had fallen into the hands of the Abyss Army. What was commendable was that the Freedom Federation had never given up resisting. However, due to the disparity in strength, no matter how desperately they fought, they couldn't stop the advance of the Abyss Army. At best, they could only slow down the advance of the Abyss Army.
It wasn't until the people of the Freedom Federation learned that the Fallen Angel Catherine had been defeated that the flames of hope in their hearts were rekindled. Such an incomparably powerful existence should have enough power to resolve this disaster. Thus, Bauer's request for help was made.
After saying all this, Bauer stood to the side with a pitiful expression, looking at Han Jin with expectant eyes, hoping to receive a heartening answer.
However, reality disappointed Bauer, because the one who spoke wasn't Han Jin, but the rotten old man in Bauer's eyes.
"Raphael, don't forget that Catherine is still nearby." Han Jin solemnly reminded him.
Han Jin's face suddenly revealed a hesitant expression. Bauer, who was standing to the side, felt his teeth itch, but he didn't dare to say anything.
After considering for a long time, Han Jin helplessly spread out his hands towards Bauer. "You also heard it. That Fallen Angel hasn't gone far. As far as I'm concerned, I really want to lend a helping hand to the Freedom Federation. But if I leave, what will happen to my Holy Crown City?"
Bauer immediately froze. Even if he had thousands of reasons, no matter how emotional or righteous he was, how could he make someone give up his home?
"Now that the continent is in turmoil, the people's hearts are unstable. Let alone the residents of the city, even the soldiers can't leave you. You are their backbone." Guevara's words seemed to be adding fuel to the fire.
Bauer became anxious. If he allowed this rotten old man to continue, then his request for help would definitely go down the drain. His parents, wife, and children were all eagerly waiting for his good news in the Freedom Federation. If he didn't get any help, then the only thing he could do after returning was to buy a few coffins in advance.
"Actually … Actually, if you lend a hand, the entire Freedom Federation will be deeply grateful to you. No matter what your request is, we will try our best to satisfy it …" Bauer's voice became softer and softer as he spoke. He himself doubted whether the Freedom Federation was worthy in the eyes of the other party. After all, it was an existence that had an angel as a servant.
Sure enough, Guevara's loathsome voice sounded again. "Request? What do you think we can ask of your Freedom Federation?! If it's something that even our Lord can't obtain, do you think your Freedom Federation can? "
"I didn't mean that …" Bauer said dryly. His heart was already filled with despair. He really couldn't think of any reason to move this young lord.
"Moreover, our Lord's vision is very long-term." Guevara said meaningfully.
Long-term vision? Bauer's heart skipped a beat as he immediately captured this information. What did this mean? Could it be that Lord Raphael's goal wasn't just the current Abyss army? Then what was his long-term goal? The answer was already obvious. It was the entire continent! That's right, it must be so! Bauer excitedly thought. This was too normal. For a powerful God-ranked expert like Han Jin, it would be abnormal if he didn't have lofty ambitions.
"My Lord, you still haven't signed the document to reward Ma Li, right?" Guevara suddenly asked.
"That's right." Han Jin nodded and cooperated. "I'll go now."
Reward Ma Li?! Bauer was startled. Could it be that Raphael had already proclaimed himself a King?! If that was the case, then his previous conjecture was true! Bauer's brain immediately began to spin rapidly. He tried to think of what the Freedom Federation could offer that could move this young king in front of him.
At this time, Han Jin had already turned around and walked into the cabin. Guevara followed behind Han Jin as he said, "There's also Chesam from Cold Shadow City. This time, his sincerity is quite great …"
Bauer couldn't hear the rest of Guevara's words. He was wondering if he had misheard. Chesam, who was famous for his arrogance? That Titan who had never bowed his head in front of the Black Dragon? Heavens, could it be that this Raphael had already unified the Northeast?!
Bauer's mind suddenly flashed. If the other party's goal was the entire continent, then why couldn't the Freedom Federation be like the Titan Race and rely on this young man's side? The more Bauer thought about it, the more he felt that this idea was feasible. Not to mention that the Freedom Federation was already close to the point where it existed in name only, even if it was safe and sound right now, when this young man really began his journey to conquer the continent in the future, the Freedom Federation wouldn't have the strength to stop him.
Since they couldn't stop him, then there were only two options left. The first was to burn both jade and common stone, but Bauer estimated that there was an extremely high possibility that only the Freedom Federation would be burned. The second option was to surrender, but that was something that could only be done when the enemy was at their doorstep. But if they surrendered now, not only would the Freedom Federation be spared from destruction, but they would also have such a powerful backer. No matter how you looked at it, it wasn't a bad thing. As for those high and mighty bigwigs, Bauer believed that they would make the right choice. One was destruction, and the other was survival. Even a fool would know which was the more reliable choice.
If those bigwigs far away in the Freedom Federation knew what Bauer was thinking at this moment, they would definitely be dumbfounded. Who would have thought that the emissary they sent out would actually attempt to sell the entire Freedom Federation?
Seeing that Han Jin's figure was about to disappear through the cabin door, Bauer hastily shouted, "Lord Raphael, wait a moment!"
Hearing this, Han Jin stopped and turned around. In fact, he and Guevara had been slowly walking towards the cabin, waiting for Bauer to urge them to stay.
"Is there anything else? You see, I'm very busy. "Han Jin pretended to be dissatisfied.
"Lord Raphael!" Bauer rushed in front of Han Jin and bowed deeply, "I implore you to lend a helping hand and save the fate of the Freedom Federation."
"Give me a reason."
"Because the Freedom Federation will soon be under your control, my lord." After saying this, Bauer felt his entire body relax. At this moment, he was completely confident that the other party would agree to his request.
"Is this your own opinion, or is it Kemorach's idea?" Guevara asked. Kemorach was the current head of the Freedom Federation. In fact, it didn't matter what Kemorach thought. As long as Bauer personally said it, it was enough. Guevara only wanted an excuse.
"This is my opinion, but I believe that Lord Kemorach won't oppose it," Bauer said loudly.
