At this moment, it was too late for regrets. If he had been just a little bit braver, even if he had bought just one more second for Donald, Han Jin would have died here. From another perspective, if he had been able to walk side by side with Donald at the beginning, he could have discovered that Han Jin was already immobilized, and the outcome would have been completely different.
However, it was all too late. Fan Lundin soon realized that he was in a bad situation. Donald was dead, and he was exhausted. On the other hand, Nicolas and Anqiel were still in peak condition.
The three demigods of different factions were facing each other in silence. Nicolas had no time to care about Fan Lunding. To him, Han Jin was far more dangerous than Fan Lunding in the future. Han Jin was still very young. What if Han Jin was given a few more years to develop? What would happen then? Anqielle could not be distracted either. The murderous aura emitted by Nicolas was too strong, as if it would completely explode at any time.
Fan Lunding, on the other hand, was at a loss. Leave? He was unwilling to leave. Stay? He was afraid that he would only die.
In the almost stagnant atmosphere, time slowly passed. After a few minutes, Fan Lunding finally made a decision. He slowly retreated, then jumped up and quickly shot into the distance.
Fan Lunding did not even dare to look back. Since he had already escaped, why should he care about his reputation? As long as he was caught by either Nicolas or Anqielle, he would very likely follow in Donald's footsteps!
Fan Lunding's escape immediately caused a commotion among the remaining abyssal demons. As the saying went, 'when the tree falls, the monkeys scatter'. Moreover, Han Jin's strength could no longer be described as' terrifying '. It was the truth of' those who submit to me will prosper, and those who resist me will perish '. Even the projection of the Death God had been destroyed. If they rushed forward, they would only be courting death!
When Fan Lunding's figure shot into the air, the remaining demons all fled in different directions. It could only be said that their hearts had already scattered …
The two demigods who had the strength to chase after Fan Lunding were still standing there quietly, as if they did not take Fan Lunding's escape seriously.
"You're not chasing?" Nicolas looked at Anqielle.
"Why didn't you chase after him?" Ankyl asked.
"I'm not Valentine's enemy." Nicholas shrugged and turned to Han Jin, who was lying on the ground.
"Raphael is not your enemy." Anqielle's eyes turned cold. Nicola's attitude was too unscrupulous, which made her very angry. "Don't forget, there's still Denver!"
"You don't have to look at me like that, right?" Although Nicholas didn't raise his head, he could sense the surging fighting spirit in Ankyl's eyes. "If I really wanted to kill him, wouldn't it be easier if I did it a little later? And … you're right, there's still Denver. "
However, Nicola's words, which had started out tough and then became submissive, could not win Anqielle's trust at all. She did not refute and continued to look at Nicola coldly.
At this moment, Han Jin moved. He pinched Donald's scythe with his fingers and pulled it out forcefully. Although it was a bit difficult, as he had only recovered a little bit of his strength, he was not used to lying on the ground. Anqiel, on the other hand, had used all of his energy to confront Nicolay, so he couldn't count on him. Could he do it himself and have enough food and clothing …
However, Donald's scythe was stuck firmly in the ground. No matter what, that was Donald's last attack. Han Jin tried for a long time, but only managed to loosen the scythe a little. However, the wound on his neck tore open again, and blood flowed slowly along the smooth mirror-like ground.
"Raphael, are you okay?" Anqielle asked hurriedly when she heard the movement behind her.
Han Jin was a little exhausted, so he had to give up for the time being. He closed his eyes again and quietly adjusted his breathing.
Seeing that Han Jin did not answer, Anqielle slowly took a step back and quickly glanced at Han Jin. Then, she reached out and grabbed the handle of the scythe, and suddenly pulled it out.
Han Jin abruptly opened his eyes. He could endure the severe pain, but Anqiel's action was too abrupt and had completely disrupted his breathing.
Anqielle did not have the slightest sympathy for the fairer sex. She casually threw the scythe to the side, turned around, and continued to look at Nicolas. She did not even say a word of concern. Meanwhile, Nicolas's gaze was fixed on Han Jin.
Han Jin sat up as if nothing had happened. He cast a spell again, and a white light appeared in his right palm. The next moment, Han Jin placed his palm on the wound on his neck. To Nicolas, a tragic miracle appeared. He could clearly see that Han Jin's wound was slowly healing. After a moment, Nicolas could not help but sigh softly. He then turned to Anqielle. "I'm curious. Why are you protecting him like this?"
"That's my business," Anqielle replied.
"It's just a small ring … Is it that big?" Nicolas chuckled.
"I guess I can guess what you're thinking." Han Jin smiled and naturally changed the topic. "Before Donald died, the three of us were partners who fought side by side. It was reasonable for you to save me. Even if you knew that a war would break out between us after we returned to the surface, you would still do so. Without such awareness, you wouldn't be qualified to break through the barrier and become a demigod." In fact, Han Jin's judgment of Nicolas had changed greatly. In the past, he only viewed Nicolas as an enemy, but now, he admired and respected him. Even if Nicolas really wanted to kill him, he still believed in his own observation.
Everything else aside, the fact that Nikolay had returned proved that he had a self-respecting, proud, and confident heart! It was the nature of all intelligent beings to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. However, Nicolas knew that there were tigers in the mountains, but he still chose to go there. Perhaps it was because of his courage and willpower that Nicolas could go so far. As for Jedis, who had grown up with Nicolas and was also extraordinarily talented, he had been left far behind.
"Yes." Nicolas sighed again. "That's why I made a move." In fact, both of them had deliberately avoided the most important part. When Nicholas attacked Donald, he didn't expect that Donald would be so defenseless, let alone that Donald would be killed so easily. What's more, in that split second, he didn't have time to think at all. Everything he did was out of instinct, because they were each other's recognized companions. Of course, it was only temporary companions.
Anqielle frowned slightly. She could still feel the strong murderous aura from Nicolay, but after Valentine escaped, there were no more enemies nearby that were worthy of Nicolay's attention. It went without saying who his murderous aura was directed at.
"But Donald is dead now. Since there's no common enemy, it's only logical for you to kill me. After I die, no one on the surface can stop you. Am I right, Nikolai? "
"You're wrong." Nicolas said softly, "First of all, you shouldn't have ignored the honorable Frost Dragon, Miss Anqielle. Secondly, you don't understand what my dream is! Raphael, in your eyes, am I, Nicholas, living such a superficial life? Haha, no one can stop me from conquering the continent … Am I satisfied? "
"Oh? What's your dream? "Han Jin's eyes lit up little by little.
"You're asking the obvious, Raphael!" Nicolas laughed. "You, me, and Miss Anqielle, we've already come this far. There's also Denver and Valentine. Dream … Ha, dream? Do you still need to ask?! "
The atmosphere suddenly became strange. Even Anqielle was breathing heavily. If they were still doubtful about Han Jin's inheritance, the answer was no longer in doubt after witnessing the power of the Heavenly Apocalyptic Fire!
Both sides of the battle had displayed power that surpassed the laws of nature. They understood that Han Jin's true strength was already above theirs.
From the beginning of the Age of Heroes until today, Han Jin was the strongest person closest to the gods! More importantly, Donald once said that Han Jin controlled a huge system of cultivation. This meant that the fundamental difference between Han Jin and them was that they didn't know what to do in the future. They were like travelers groping in the dark night, but Han Jin could make plans that they couldn't imagine. Following the direction of the huge system of cultivation, he advanced step by step steadily. Not to mention the speed, at least he wouldn't go astray.
"So … You want to stop me?" Han Jin was too lazy to pretend. "Stopping me doesn't mean you can succeed."
Han Jin's words were like a heavy bomb that hit the weakest part of Nicolas's heart. Nicolas's face changed immediately.
For many years, Nicolas had always thought of himself as the most outstanding man, or rather, the most outstanding person! Han Jin's appearance was a huge blow to Nicolas. He didn't want to admit it, but he had to admit it. Therefore, he really wanted to take advantage of this time to kill Han Jin.
Han Jin was telling him that even if he could kill him, he would no longer be the most outstanding person. He would always be stronger than him!
Nicolas's face kept changing. After a long time, he let out a long sigh. "Raphael, you're just luckier than me."
"You know what? Luck is also a kind of ability, "Han Jin said with a smile.
Nicolas was speechless for a moment. After a pause, he turned his gaze to Anqielle and slowly said, "Anqielle, I think you should know what I want to say! This Lord Raphael had always been hostile to the Colossal Dragon Clan! Dragon slayer … Do you understand? "
"Why? Are you not willing to coexist peacefully?! " Anqielle finally opened her mouth, but Han Jin and Nicolas were a little dumbfounded. They didn't expect Anqielle, a frost dragon, to say such childish words.
In troubled times, peace was nothing more than a fig leaf that the weak used to cover their private parts. It was nothing more than a final struggle!
"Why? The continent is so big! "Anqielle's tone was a little hurried." Can't it accommodate the two of you? Can't it accommodate you and the dragons?! "
Nicolay and Han Jin looked at each other. They didn't know what to say, but they could see that Anqiel was very serious. Nicolay didn't dare to refute because he wanted to draw Anqiel to his side, while Han Jin didn't want to hurt Anqiel's feelings because he hadn't repaid Anqiel for saving his life.
"Ahem …" Nicolas coughed dryly. "Anqielle, can't you see that this Lord Raphael is a threat to the dragons?"
"I believe that if I pray for peace from him, he will repay me with peace," Anqielle said.
"Why do you trust him so much?!" Nicolas was almost dumbfounded. When Nicolas spoke, Han Jin also opened his mouth. Obviously, this was what he wanted to ask too.
Anqielle didn't say anything. Han Jin felt more and more strange. He vaguely felt that Anqielle's trust in him was built on a very inexplicable but very deep foundation.
After a long silence, Han Jin said, "You didn't meet Denver?"
"Denver? That great Lich? "This time, even Anqielle was a little surprised." How did we meet him? "
"Denver has always been in Gray Valley City!" Han Jin trusted his senses. There was no other explanation for that extremely strong demon aura other than Denver.
Nicolay and Anqiel furrowed their brows and fell into deep thought. If Denver had participated in the battle in Gray Valley City, then the situation would undoubtedly have changed completely. However, why hadn't they seen Denver's figure from the beginning to the end? This was obviously somewhat illogical.
"That guy probably fooled Donald too," Nicholas said after some thought. This was the only explanation. With the great Lich, Denver, lying in ambush, there was no need for Donald to sacrifice his brother to summon the projection of Death.
"So, you mean that the war between the Abyss World and the surface world has only come to an end, but it hasn't really ended?" Nicolas was at a loss, so he could only accept Han Jin's explanation.
"That depends on what Denver does." Han Jin recalled while saying, "As far as I know, Denver seems to be very interested in the bones of all creatures, and the more powerful they are when they were alive, the more interested he is."
Nicolas raised his eyebrows. "Including demons and dragons?"
"Not only that," Han Jin said with a smile. "Denver once targeted the fallen angels."
Both Nicolay and Anqiel gasped. If that was the case, then Denver's appetite was a little too big. However, this was the reason why Denver was only lurking at the side and did not make a move.
Nicolas's frown deepened. If what Han Jin said was all true, then he had to re-examine the relationship between them. The power of a Lich was well known, and as a great Lich who had lived for countless years, Denver's strength had reached a mysterious level. With such an enemy watching from the side, how could he continue to cooperate with Han Jin?
Perhaps everything could be solved after returning to the surface. Although he had seen Han Jin's power that was enough to destroy the world, Nicolas never thought that Han Jin was invincible. In other words, he had never been afraid.
No matter how powerful the enemy was, the only thing he could do was to fight.
The reason why Nicolas could become a demigod powerhouse had a lot to do with the countless life-and-death battles he had experienced. No matter how powerful Han Jin was, Nicolas dared to fight with his sword. This was a stark contrast to the Black Dragon King, Valentine. The Black Dragon, who had great power since birth, was sometimes inferior to these human powerhouses who had climbed out of a sea of blood and mountains of corpses.
He had experienced more than a thousand battles in his life. No matter how great the disparity in numbers was, Nicolas had never backed down, and this time was no exception.
"Then what should we do? Go back? "Anqielle asked.
"I've used up too much of my strength. This is not a good place," Han Jin said.
"If we leave the Abyss now, it won't be so easy to come back in the future," Nicolas said.
"I have a way." Han Jin smiled. He was not lying. Since he knew the location of the most critical hub of the Abyss, he could use Earthmeld to rush over at any time. The words' I have a way 'only represented himself, not others. As for how Nicolas understood it, it was Nicolas's problem.
"Okay, then … I'll go back first." After saying that, Nicholas turned around and sped off into the distance. Soon, his figure could only be seen as a small black dot on the horizon. Ever since he revealed his murderous intent toward Han Jin, Nicolas had sensed the strong hostility from Anqielle. Although he did not understand why, he was sure of one thing: as long as Anqielle was around, he could not touch Han Jin. Moreover, Han Jin seemed to be able to move freely now. Although he did not know to what extent he had recovered, Nicolas did not have the confidence to kill Han Jin in front of Anqielle.
When Nicolas' figure completely disappeared, Han Jin groaned at the same time. His face was as pale as paper, and he slowly sat cross-legged on the ground. The vital energy that Han Jin had gathered during the seemingly casual conversation had all been used up. To be able to hold on until now without any change in expression was already Han Jin's limit.
Anqielle looked at Han Jin in disbelief. Even with her intelligence, she could not tell that Han Jin was an arrow at the end of its flight. She simply could not understand what kind of power supported Han Jin to be able to speak so calmly as if nothing had happened. It should be known that in that situation just now, as long as Han Jin showed the slightest sign of weakness, Nicolas would definitely attack regardless of everything. Facing the full-force attack of a demigod powerhouse, Anqielle did not have the confidence to completely protect Han Jin.
Little did she know that Han Jin had no choice but to take such a dangerous action. The vital energy that he had gathered with great difficulty was all scattered by Donald's sword, and then he was faced with Nicolas' hawk-like gaze. Although anyone could tell that Anqielle was on Han Jin's side, under Nicolas' sharp attack, Anqielle might not be able to protect Han Jin completely.
