"Is it enough?" Han Jin asked.
"Yes, it's enough …" Green smiled bitterly. "I don't need that much. I only need five magic crystals, and I can shorten the time to seven days. Any more than that … would be a waste."
"I wanted to use these magic crystals to set up a magic array, but … your teleportation array is more important."
"Sir, how many magic crystals do you need?" Green asked.
"Seven or eight. The more, the more confident I am."
"You haven't put it into practice because you are not confident?" Green was getting more and more curious. "What is the name of your magic array?"
"It's called …" Han Jin wanted to say Sumeru Mustard Space, but Green would not understand it. After thinking for a while, he changed his words, "It doesn't have a name. It's also a kind of space transmission magic matrix. The only difference is that we can freely decide the time to travel through the space. If necessary, we can even hide in the space forever."
"There is such a magical magic array?" Green's eyes widened. He immediately understood Han Jin's intention. In the past, whenever Han Jin was in danger, he could always escape with Earthmeld and Earth Shrinking Spell. Every time he fought with the enemy, it was because the people on the God of War were in danger, and Han Jin had no choice but to fight. Since Han Jin's debut, he had never abandoned his friends to escape. It could also be said that this was the most fatal weakness of Han Jin. If the enemy could not defeat Han Jin, they would have to find a way to escape. If they could set up such a magic array, they could hide in it when they were in danger, and Han Jin would have enough room to deal with them.
Han Jin smiled and did not say anything.
Green was silent for a while and said, "Sir, I only need three magic crystals. Try your best to complete it within ten days!"
"I'm not in a hurry," Han Jin said lightly. "There are still a lot of Abyss Demons, right?"
Zenglin was tongue-tied. Most of the masters on the continent would feel nervous or disgusted when talking about the Abyss Demons. Han Jin was the only exception. He had an illusion that the person in front of him was a woodcutter who was telling his family in an indifferent tone that they didn't need to worry about heating in winter because there was a whole forest behind them.
"Mr. Zenglin, I remember that there are many teleportation portals in Isolated Cliff City that can send mercenaries to the depths of the Holy Beast Forest. If it's so difficult to set up a teleportation portal … I'm very curious. How did they do it?"
"The teleportation array I want to set up is different from theirs," Green Zeng said with a smile.
"Oh? What's the difference? "
"You'll know in a few days." Glin smiled and changed the topic, "Your Excellency, you've shown the power of our Holy Crown City today. Haha … You didn't see Thorne's face in the South, full of sadness, loss and helplessness, just like a sick beauty. How pitiful!"
"Pity?" Han Jin also laughed, "Don't let him hear this, or he'll definitely fight you to the death."
At this moment, a huge golden figure pierced through the clouds under the illumination of the setting sun and landed diagonally in the center of Esnorly City.
Golden Dragon?!
Han Jin and Green Zenglin looked at each other and walked slowly to the side of the ship. Green Zenglin had already released his Clairvoyance Eyes to observe the situation in the center of the city.
It was indeed a golden dragon, and on its back stood a fully-armored knight. He looked to be about 40 years old, and his face was weary. The armor on his body was damaged, and only a small piece of the cape on his back was left. It was as if he had gone through an intense battle.
"It's him? Why is he here? "Green Zenglin was surprised.
"Mr. Green Zenglin, do you know him?" Majordomo Gail came over and asked.
"Of course. He's one of Nikola's trusted subordinates, Dragon Knight Dick. He's Nikola's vice-captain," Green Zenglin said slowly, "I've dealt with him a lot in the past."
"Nikola's people?" Han Jin was silent for a moment and yelled, "Harley!"
"Yes, Master!" Harley hurriedly jumped up from his chair.
"Stay here and help Dominique. We'll go back and see why Nikola sent people here." Han Jin said. Dominique had brought the Titans and magicians to the battlefield to collect the spoils. The Evil Fire Spirit was a very strange creature. Little fire spirits didn't have magic crystals, and advanced Evil Fire Spirits didn't have magic crystals either. Only fire spirits that had just advanced would have magic crystals in their bodies. When they truly matured, the magic crystals would dissolve in their bodies, and they would have the ability to continuously regenerate in the lava.
Although the probability of evil fire spirits producing magic crystals was very low, it was better than nothing. It didn't take much effort.
"Sir, I won't go," Green Zenglin said in a low voice, "I still need to set up the teleportation circle …"
"Your relationship with Dragon Knight Dick …" Han Jin saw some clues.
"Our relationship is not bad. When Nikola decided to betray me, only a few people spoke for me, and Dick was one of them," Green Zenglin said slowly.
"He dared to disobey Nikola's order? Didn't Nikola punish him? "Han Jin asked.
"People used to say that Jedis and I were Nikola's most capable right-hand men, but he abandoned us … Sir, you must think that Nikola is a cold-blooded person, right?" Green Zenglin's expression became very complicated.
"I have a feeling, Sir, that you and Nikola can't coexist. Sooner or later, there will be a life-and-death battle between you two. I don't want you to make the wrong decision, so I must make it clear!" Green Zenglin pondered for a moment and said, "Nikola is a charismatic leader. I'm not trying to speak up for him. I'm just telling the truth."
"I know. Jedis has told me many times about Nikola's charisma." Han Jin nodded.
"He couldn't have gained the loyalty of so many soldiers just by being cold-blooded! But … I don't know what to say, so I'll just talk about some small things. You can experience it for yourself. " Green Zenglin said, "Nikola is very tolerant of others, but he is very harsh on himself. For example, in his palace, there are only a dozen maids in that huge palace. The rest are his guards. In fact, it's like a military camp. Every day, he has to train the soldiers himself! Nikola only has one queen, but she died in childbirth when she gave birth to Tinos. It's said that … there was a conspiracy … "
"A conspiracy?" Han Jin was stunned.
"A queen actually lost her life because of a difficult birth. This is simply a joke. What are so many priests doing? Speaking of which … it's related to Jedis. " Green Zenglin said slowly, "Nikola's queen is called Trilinda. Nikola loves her deeply, and she loves Nikola too. But her identity is a bit special. Do you know whose sister she is?"
"Who?"
"Lola."
"Lola? The one who founded the Lola Alliance? "Han Jin was stunned.
"Yes, Lola, Trilinda, and Louise are sisters!" Green Zenglin said, "They are all half-elves. Lola and Trilinda had a fierce conflict because of fighting for the right of inheritance. In the end, Trilinda was the loser and was driven out."
"I've been in contact with Louise. You don't know, do you? Louise is now in the Holy Crown City. I can see that she has a deep-seated hatred for Nicholas. It's not normal … "
"Louise was still young at that time, so she didn't know anything." Green Zenglin laughed, "Moreover, the winner will always try his best to vilify the loser. The loser is as ugly as the winner, isn't it? In the Lola Alliance, Trilinda has become the symbol of cruelty, fierceness, and viciousness. In fact, not only Lola, but also Nikola. And you, you have done the same thing. "
"Me?"
"The Holy Crown City is a very good city. It can be seen that the former Lord Dismark has devoted a lot of effort to it!" Green Zenglin said, "But now what? At the banquet, those nobles will abuse Dismark in various ways as long as they have the chance, as if they will be more loyal to you. "
"I didn't ask them to do that." Han Jin laughed.
"I know. But in a few years, Dismark will become a big villain in people's eyes. And you are the savior of the Holy Crown City. You can't deny that, can you?"
Han Jin sighed. The winner takes all. It was really a pity.
"How many years has it been since Dismark died?" Green Zenglin shook his head, "Trilinda was driven away more than ten years ago. In the eyes of the Lola Alliance, Trilinda has become an old witch. In fact … I heard that Trilinda was very beautiful and gentle. Maybe because of this, she was far from being Lola's opponent."
"Heard? You haven't seen Trilinda? "
"Trilinda died too early." Green Zenglin shook his head again, "She fell in love with Nikola less than half a year after they met. They held a wedding and then got pregnant with Tinos. When Tinos was born, she died of dystocia. This love came and went quickly. Trilinda's life is a tragedy. This is not what I said, but what Nikola said."
"You said? Trilinda's death is a conspiracy? "
"Although I'm not sure, I dare say … it's very likely!" Green Zenglin said, "Nikola's strength has been expanding rapidly. At that time, he had already attracted the attention of the Holy Church. On the one hand, Nikola wanted to avenge Trilinda. On the other hand, he wanted to take the opportunity to expand his territory. He tried his best to help Trilinda gather her old followers. Of course, this made the Holy Church and Lola dissatisfied."
"And then?"
"No one can say for sure what happened later." Green Zenglin said, "Anyway … when Trilinda was dying due to excessive bleeding, there was no priest in the Iron Fist City. There were only some deacons. Nikola even offered an emergency reward, willing to exchange half of the city for a Senior Magic Scroll of Light that had not expired …"
"Not expired? What does that mean? "
"Senior Magic Scrolls of Light are not rare. Of course, masters who often participate in battles would prepare something to save themselves. However, on that day, it is said that Nikola released hundreds of scrolls, but all of them had lost their effectiveness. It seems … that there was a supreme master hiding somewhere, imprisoning all the power of light." Green Zenglin glanced at Adolf from the corner of his eye. Other than the Pope, only Adolf could imprison the power of light.
"What was Jeddis doing at that time?" Han Jin asked.
"Jeddis was only a Cardinal at that time. He was leading the priests to the Unsetting Sun Mountains. After receiving the urgent report from the Dragon Knight, he immediately rushed back on the dragon, but when he arrived … everything was too late." Green Zenglin said, "I don't doubt Jeddis's character, but … it was too coincidental. The priests had all left the Iron Fist City, Jeddis was rushing to the Unsetting Sun Mountains, and all the Light Scrolls had lost their effectiveness. Someone clearly wanted Trilinda to die. Moreover, it seemed that they had already predicted that something would happen to Trilinda. Then … was the difficult birth really a coincidence?"
Han Jin frowned. There was indeed a conspiracy!
"Also, the Dragon Realm seemed to be involved," Zenglin said. "Right after Trilinda passed away, Chazeaux found Nicholas and asked for a marriage alliance. He wanted to introduce the 'most beautiful', 'kindest', and one of the Guardians of the Dragon Realm, Harriet, to Nicholas. In the end, Nicholas refused. Therefore, Harriet has always hated Nicholas. After Harriet replaced Chazeaux, she often caused trouble for Nicholas, and even unreasonably pestered him. Haha … these days have been really lively."
"It's too complicated." Han Jin smiled bitterly. "It seems that Nicholas's life is not easy." Nicholas tried to use other forces, and other forces also tried to use Nicholas. As for who would win, it was unknown. In any case, the Church of the Unsetting Sun was the first to be eliminated. However, if all the forces wanted to see Trilinda die, then she definitely had no chance of surviving. Thinking about Nicholas, who was an unparalleled overlord who could shake the world, but couldn't protect his wife, wouldn't he feel heartache?
Of course, this was the Nicholas of the past. He had heard from Leonardo that Donald's younger brother, Johnson, had led a dozen Abyssal Demons to besiege Nicholas, but they were still defeated. Even Johnson was heavily injured. With Nicholas's current power, if anyone else tried to scheme against him, they would definitely be crushed and consigned to eternal damnation.
Han Jin narrowed his eyes. Who didn't have regrets? He thought of Edwina. That time, during the treatment, Edwina was almost naked in front of him. After that, the way she looked at him changed. She was always sneaky, panicked, and timid. He knew that Edwina had developed feelings for him, but he already had Sunier, so he could only turn a blind eye to it. When the two Vampire Queens had plotted against him, Edwina should not have done anything. She should have immediately gone back to find help. However, whether or not Han Jin had deliberately distanced himself from her, she did not want to see Han Jin face danger alone, so she died.
Han Jin's eyes became a little moist. A relationship that had not even started had already ended! Unfortunately, he really did not have the ability to protect Edwina at that time, just like Nicholas in the past.
"After Jedis took over the parish, he gave in to Nicholas on many things. Perhaps it was because he felt guilty. Although he did not know anything, Nicholas's wife decided that she should not have died in childbirth. I know very well that he sent people to investigate this matter, but they never found anything," Zenglin said. "As for Nicholas … no matter how much Jedis gave in, he was not satisfied. He was always insatiable because he hated the Vatican! I originally thought that Dragon City would be the first to be destroyed. After all, Dragon City was an enemy. With the support of the Vatican and Dragon Field, he could definitely do it. But … he actually started with the Vatican. Haha … this proves that he could not wait any longer. "
"It also proves that he could not maintain his absolute rationality." Han Jin smiled. Zenglin was right. Dragon City should be destroyed first, and then Dragon Field should be destroyed by the Vatican, which was at a disadvantage in terms of high-end combat power. The Vatican would be the last.
"After all, a life is a life. It is not a puppet that does not know anything. It will always have feelings. Who can maintain absolute rationality?" Zengeling said slowly, "I've heard that in the past, Nikola was very expressive. He would laugh, drink, slam the table, curse, and even flirt with women. You should ask Jedis about this, he knows it better than anyone else. However, after Trilinda's death, he became silent and rarely laughed. He would sit there for a long time without moving, but his strength was improving at an even more astonishing speed."
"But he is still very kind to the people around him. Nicholas would never vent his anger on others just because he is in a bad mood." Zenglin continued. "Countless soldiers are willing to defend their loyalty to Nicholas with their lives. For example … Let's talk about myself. Although I hate Nicholas now, I have to admit that Nicholas is a king who can make people feel warm. Unless … he thinks that your existence has hindered or threatened the interests of him or the Empire, then he will show his cold-blooded side."
"You are wrong. This only proves that Nicholas is good at disguising himself." Han Jin said calmly. "Otherwise, he is just himself. How can he show his other side?"
"Really?" Zenglin laughed. There was a topic that he and Han Jin had secretly avoided. If one day, Han Jin thought that Zenglin was hindering and threatening the Holy Crown City, what would happen?
However, at this moment, Han Jin and Zenglin had never expected that the test would come so fast. It was so fast that they were caught unprepared.
"Since you don't want to see your old friend, you can stay here." Han Jin said.
"Don't have any other ideas about Dick." Zenglin said. "He is not that Leonardo."
"Hehe, I've heard Jeddis's and your words so many times that they've become calluses. My personal charm is far less than Nicolay's. Do you really think that I would try to influence Dick?" Han Jin laughed.
Looking at Han Jin's back, Zenglin also smiled. Han Jin's words made sense. Perhaps, the so-called warmth was just deliberately created by Nicholas. On the God of War, Zenglin was influenced by the relaxed and cheerful atmosphere, which made him feel at ease. At the moment when Han Jin turned around, Zenglin wanted to say that he also had his own charm, which was not inferior to Nicholas'. But for some reason, he could not say it.
