Crazy! They're all crazy!!
The abyss soldiers were scared out of their wits, and in their eyes, Han Jin had also gone crazy!
A single person had chased after an army of more than a hundred thousand for more than forty kilometers. Who knew how many abyss soldiers wanted to turn back and question Han Jin, was it worth it?!
When Han Jin felt that more than half of his vital energy and divine sense had been consumed, he finally stopped. At this time, he had left behind a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
Although Han Jin's blade aura was peerlessly powerful, the amount of damage it could cause was limited. At least, it couldn't be compared to a large-scale dao technique. However, Han Jin's countless blade lights had accumulated a huge amount of damage. The corpses that could be seen everywhere in the forty kilometer long wilderness were the most convincing proof.
The soldiers of Esnorly City didn't participate in the chase. It wasn't that they didn't want to, but rather that they didn't dare. If they were to mix with the abyss soldiers, who could guarantee that the terrifying demigod rank expert wouldn't scatter blade lights at them?
Kemorach was thoroughly convinced. He originally had some hope that if Han Jin's side and the abyss army fought until both sides suffered, then the Freedom Federation would have the confidence to speak. However, the facts clearly told him that even without the abyss army, just Han Jin's group alone was enough to turn Esnorly City into ruins.
After standing blankly for a long time, Kemorach squeezed out a sentence, "Lord Raphael … is he really a grand magus?"
Majordomo Gail and the others looked at each other in dismay. No one could answer Kemorach's question. Even Sunier, who knew Han Jin's core secret, was stumped by this question.
No matter what, this was the first victory the Freedom Federation had obtained since the invasion of the abyss race. Moreover, it was a true victory. Although this was achieved with the help of reinforcements, it didn't affect the people's joy in the slightest.
Esnorly City immediately became lively. If Bauer's request for reinforcements had given the people of the Freedom Federation a glimmer of hope, then the appearance of Han Jin's group had brought them the dawn of victory.
The news of the abyssal army being repelled spread to every corner of the city as if it had grown wings. In particular, the news of Han Jin chasing the army of tens of thousands of people for dozens of kilometers was spread by everyone.
That evening, Kemorach invited Han Jin and the others to a banquet in his mansion. At the same time, he also laid out some details on the table. This was Kemorach expressing his sincerity to Han Jin. He had no choice but to do this because there were still many cities in the Freedom Federation that were under threat.
Han Jin did not have much interest in these matters. Since Guevara was not around, the negotiations naturally fell to Majordomo Gail and Zenglin. Majordomo Gail was a little better. He had long been accustomed to Han Jin's behavior of not caring about political affairs. Zenglin, on the other hand, was a little surprised. How could such an important matter be handled by a person who had just joined the Holy Crown City Group? But no matter whether Han Jin truly trusted him or just made a gesture, Zenglin had to admit that this feeling was quite good.
Unconsciously, Zenglin compared Han Jin and Nicolay in his heart. He came to the conclusion that Han Jin was more daring. At least in the matter of expanding the territory, Nicolay would never allow anyone to interfere, let alone entrust someone with full authority.
When this scene fell into Kemorach's eyes, he didn't feel good about it. Could it be that the other party didn't place the Freedom Federation in his eyes? However, recalling Han Jin's courage during the day, Kemorach was a little discouraged. He did have the capital to do so.
In the end, it was still a matter of strength. Just like the Fallen Angel Catherine, although she had no soldiers under her command, she was still one of the three giants of the Abyss.
Before the negotiations began, both sides thought that these minor issues would quickly reach a consensus. Unexpectedly, only a few minutes later, the two sides had several disputes. There was no other reason. The system of the Freedom Federation was completely different from that of other places. The supreme power was jointly controlled by large and small nobles. The current governor, Kemorach, was elected by the Upper House. His term was seven years. When the term was up, he had to abdicate. He also had no right to appoint his own successor. If he made a big mistake during his term, the Upper House even had the right to impeach him immediately.
Take the agreement between Kemorach and Han Jin as an example. If it did not get the support of the Upper House, the agreement would have no effect.
It was reasonable to say that in the negotiations, Majordomo Gail and Zenglin should play the role of good cop and bad cop. However, both of them were angry. What kind of joke was this? Could it be that they wanted Han Jin to stand in the Upper House and be questioned by all the representatives?! Especially Zenglin. Although he was a victim of the imperial system, his attitude was even more intense than Majordomo Gail's. The Upper House and the Lower House had to be dissolved, and the Freedom Federation would be divided into three territories. Kemorach would be the first lord of Esnorly City. Of course, Kemorach would use the most solemn method to accept Han Jin's edict.
Kemorach did not necessarily dislike Zenglin's proposal. The governor's term was only seven years. Although after becoming a lord, he would only have a third of his original territory, but his authority would be much greater than before. Moreover, it was for life. The premise was that he did not anger Han Jin. If he managed it well, he could even pass on his position to his descendants.
Compared to this, what was a governor?! However, Kemorach was very clear about the inside story of the Upper House. He did not dare to act rashly. He could only patiently explain to Majordomo Gail and Zenglin the powerful relationship between the two, as well as the various conflicts that might arise. Unfortunately, Majordomo Gail and Zenglin simply did not listen. Rebound? Kill whoever rebounded! Or drive them out of Esnorly City and leave them to fend for themselves!
Kemorach felt a headache coming on. It was like a chicken talking to a duck, and his position was very awkward. If he continued to speak for the nobles, he would leave a bad impression on Han Jin, which would be very unfavorable for him in the future. If he drew closer to the Holy Crown City Group, there would be no need for the Abyss Army to attack Esnorly City. Even the entire Freedom Federation would be in danger of completely collapsing.
At the end of the discussion, Majordomo Gail became impatient. The arrival of the God of War had solved Esnorly City's urgent problem. What qualifications did Kemorach have to bargain? He winked at Zenglin and said coldly, "There's no point in continuing the discussion, but I want to warn you here. When we left the God of War, our lord told us that the reinforcements from the Abyss World would appear soon."
"What did you say? Reinforcements from the Abyss World? " Kemorach was shocked. Seeing Majordomo Gail's indifferent expression, he felt even more miserable. God had mercy on him, he absolutely supported Zenglin's proposal. Who wouldn't want to be a lord? The problem was that he didn't want to cause internal strife, especially now!
"Did … did our lord say when the reinforcements from the Abyss World would arrive?" Snarley asked timidly. The negotiation had reached a deadlock. He shouldn't have asked, but it was related to the safety of the city and even the entire Freedom Federation. He could only ask with a straight face.
"Maybe a few days later, maybe tomorrow, or maybe … now." Majordomo Gail said lightly. After that, he and Zenglin walked to the door of the conference room one after another.
Kemorazi and Snarley looked at each other in dismay. Fortunately, today was only an internal, small-scale negotiation. If the negotiation had been held in the House of Lords, the result would have been predictable. A fight would have broken out! Kemorach had experienced the sharp words of the representatives of the House of Lords and their ability to nitpick. Majordomo Gail and Zenglin were here to negotiate. They represented the dignity of Han Jin, so there was no way they could tolerate this. They might even kill on the spot.
"My lord, are they … deliberately trying to scare us?" Snarley whispered.
"Do you think it's necessary?" Kemorach slumped in his chair weakly.
Prophets were used by Han Jin to deceive people a long time ago. He didn't have the ability to predict the future. The only reason he could predict the arrival of reinforcements was because of Leonardo.
Leonardo left as soon as he said so. He didn't care about the lives of the Abyss Warriors. Even if he was afraid of Han Jin's magic array, he wouldn't have been scared to such an extent.
After thinking about it, there was only one reasonable explanation. Those Abyss Warriors were just cannon fodder. It would be better if they didn't die, but it didn't matter if they died. When Han Jin told Majordomo Gail his judgment, his expression was very solemn. He could vaguely see Donald's overall plan. Occupying the entire continent wasn't Donald's only goal. Donald also wanted to use this war to reshuffle the various races of the Abyss.
However, the war still had to be fought. It was impossible to conquer the Freedom Federation with just a few powerhouses. They still needed a large number of troops. Leonardo didn't care about the lives of those Abyss Warriors, which meant that he already had reinforcements.
Moreover, Leonardo had confessed that he came out to test Han Jin's strength. After the test, it was impossible for there to be no follow-up. This also meant that after Han Jin defeated the Fallen Angel Katherine, Donald had immediately received the news through some unknown method. Then, he made the corresponding arrangements to deal with Han Jin!
* * * *
When Majordomo Gail and Green Zenglin left the conference room, Leonardo was slowly walking up a small hill. He looked ahead and saw a huge ring of fire more than ten miles away. The ring of fire was more than thirty meters tall and was completely composed of dark red flames. As the breeze blew, the ring of fire constantly changed and twisted. Inside the ring of fire were countless black waves that looked very viscous.
If Leonardo was replaced by any other warrior of the Freedom Federation, even Senator Kemorazi, they would feel cold all over and might even collapse on the spot.
Hell's Gate! The Abyss Race had actually built a Hell's Gate in the Freedom Federation!
Near the Hell's Gate, there were countless monkey-like monsters. Those who had traveled through the Abyss World would immediately recognize them. These were the only long-range troops of the Abyss Demon Vassal Race, the Flame Gog!
Outside the Hell's Gate were hordes of canine magic beasts. Their bodies were much thicker than ordinary dogs, and when they stood up, they were even taller than human warriors. Some had two heads, while others had three. These magic beasts were densely packed together, covering the mountains and plains. There were at least several hundred thousand of them. Just looking at them would make one's scalp go numb.
Thirty miles to the east of the Hell's Gate was a city that originally housed over two hundred thousand people, but now it had become a silent ghost town.
It was different from the battlefield ruins that Han Jin and the others had seen. Not to mention corpses, not even a single bone could be found in this city. Even if a light breeze blew into the city, it would suddenly become deathly silent. Occasionally, a few canine magic beasts would stealthily walk on the streets before disappearing into the dark corners.
These magic beasts were the infamous Hellhounds. Although the Hellhounds' killing power couldn't be considered very high, and they couldn't pose a threat to a true expert, these magic beasts had their own advantages.
The Hellhounds' vitality was extremely tenacious, and they also had a terrifying reproductive ability. Every year, the Hellhounds would give birth to pups. A litter of pups could have at most ten pups. In other words, a pair of Hellhounds, after three or four years of breeding, would evolve into a large pack. Moreover, the Hellhounds would eat anything, even bones, insects, and ants. If they were really hungry, they would even eat their own companions. Those who survived through elimination were naturally the strongest of the Hellhounds. What was even more frightening was that the Hellhounds had relatively advanced intelligence, and they could fight in groups like an army.
During the first world war, a Demon Commander once joked that if there weren't any professionals on the continent, there wouldn't be a need for them to launch an attack. They would only need to send out ten thousand Hellhounds to wipe out all the creatures on the surface, including magic beasts.
Leonardo let out a sigh of relief. At this time, three Hellhounds chasing each other passed by him. Leonardo waved his hand, and the three Hellhounds seemed to understand Leonardo's intention. They immediately changed directions and ran in front of Leonardo. They prostrated themselves on the ground and looked at Leonardo with their blood-red eyes.
Leonardo bent down and patted the head of one of the Hellhounds. Suddenly, he exerted force and broke the Hellhound's head. The white bones pierced through the neck, and blood flowed out. The Hellhound was in so much pain that its whole body trembled. The remaining two heads even opened their mouths and bit each other, as if this could lessen their pain. However, they didn't dare to attack the instigator, even though Leonardo was right beside them.
Leonardo lowered his head and pressed it against the Hellhound's wound. He sucked a long mouthful of blood, then stood up and kicked the Hellhound to the side. He slightly opened his mouth, and the blood in his mouth dripped down. In the blink of an eye, his brown chest was dyed red.
Leonardo slightly closed his eyes, and a mist rose from his body. The dripping blood quickly evaporated, and in a moment, it turned into black and red blood stains.
Leonardo lowered his head and looked at his work. He seemed very satisfied, and then he slowly walked towards the Hell's Gate.
Beside the Hell's Gate, there were a few tall warriors. They were very similar to Wei Pu and his brothers, ugly and ferocious. The only difference was that the demon horns on the Wei Pu brothers' foreheads grew backwards, while the demon horns on their heads stretched straight towards the sky, like two arrogant and unruly sharp swords.
Leonardo slowly walked towards the warriors. The warriors exchanged glances, and one of them, a one-eyed warrior, chuckled and said, "Leonardo, what happened to you?"
"I met Raphael." Leonardo said softly.
"Raphael? He's here? "The only warrior sitting on a stone pillar suddenly asked," Are you sure you didn't see wrong? "
"Apart from him, who else can hurt me?" Leonardo said.
The other warriors exchanged glances again, but the one-eyed warrior didn't bother to hide his sneer.
"But, the mission father gave me, I already …" Leonardo's expression was calm, but before he could finish, he was rudely interrupted by the one-eyed warrior.
"Shut up! Father? You bastard! You think you're worthy? "The one-eyed warrior extended his index finger, rudely poking Leonardo's forehead." You think you're worthy? You think you're worthy?! " Every time he shouted, he would tap Leonardo's forehead, and Leonardo would be forced to retreat again and again.
"Richard, what are you doing? Let him finish! "The warrior sitting on the stone pillar frowned.
The one-eyed warrior named Richard coldly snorted. The remaining one opened his eyes wide, staring at Leonardo. However, he still obeyed the warrior's order and obediently shut his mouth.
"I've already completed the mission father gave me." Leonardo's expression didn't change. "Raphael's battle strength can't be considered very high. As long as we don't give him a chance to release a magic formation, we can eliminate him."
"Why would Raphael appear in the Freedom Federation?" Another warrior asked.
"I don't know." Leonardo replied.
"That's good. We don't have to go to the Holy Crown City. Let's settle this once and for all!" The warrior sitting on the stone pillar slowly said. "Leonardo, does that Raphael really have the same teleportation ability as us?"
"Yes." Leonardo nodded.
"Hey, I say … that Raphael isn't a bastard, is he?" The one-eyed warrior named Richard shouted.
Leonardo slowly lowered his head. The repeated 'bastard' was challenging his tolerance limit. However, it was different now. He didn't have the highest command of the army, and the right of explanation belonged to the other party. If there was a conflict, he would definitely be at a disadvantage.
"Well, Leonardo, go rest. Take care of your wounds." The warrior sitting on the stone pillar softly said.
Leonardo bowed and slowly retreated.
Seeing Leonardo's figure disappear, the warrior sitting on the stone pillar turned his gaze to Richard. "Richard, be careful in the future. At this time, don't affect our unity."
"Unity?" Richard couldn't bear it anymore. He pointed at his blind eye and shouted. "What unity can I have with him?! Damn it, I want to kill him right now! "
"At that time, it was you who proposed a duel with him." The warrior sitting on the stone pillar slowly said.
"I …" Richard was speechless for a moment, but then he shouted in an even louder voice. "Brother, don't tell me you don't want to kill him! As long as he is alive, he will take away father's favor. Moreover, you will always be the second, forever! " (To be continued, if you want to know what will happen next, please go to www.qidian.com, there are more chapters.
