The atmosphere in the west side of the city suddenly became tense. Michel went out to buy wheat flour and prepared to make some bread for the journey. When he returned, he brought back a very bad news. There were soldiers everywhere on the streets, strictly checking the pedestrians. It was only a ten-minute walk from the market to the courtyard, but Michel had already been checked several times. Fortunately, Michel looked very honest, and he was carrying a small bag of wheat flour. He did not look like a bad guy, so they did not give him a hard time.
Han Jin hurriedly asked Michel to walk around the city gate. This time, the news Michel brought back was even more nerve-wracking. In the past, people who came in were strictly checked, and those who left were almost ignored. Now, the situation was reversed. Sunier, Morrisons, and the others sat together and discussed for a long time. Sunier had been in the army before, so she was very decisive. Han Jin was also not a person who liked to dawdle. The two of them decided that since they had decided to leave, the sooner the better.
In fact, there was not much to pack. In the afternoon, everyone walked out of the courtyard one after another. However, they were divided into two groups. Han Jin and Morrisons walked in front, while the others followed behind. They kept a distance of about a hundred meters from Han Jin.
Morrisons' physical characteristics were too obvious. If something really happened, it would be Morrisons who was discovered. Sunier, Sassoux, and Léger tried their best not to participate in the battle. Their mission was to protect the non-combatants, such as Qi Li and Stillberg.
The two groups of people silently walked through the pedestrians. After passing several streets, nothing happened. After turning the corner and walking for a few hundred meters, they would reach the city gate. At this time, a team of Knight suddenly turned the corner and came over.
Han Jin was right. With Morrisons' body and temperament, he would attract attention like a crane in a flock of chickens. A Knight looked at Morrisons in the crowd and frowned. Then he saw Han Jin hiding beside Morrisons. His eyes suddenly brightened. Before he even had time to greet his companions, he roared, "You two, stop!"
The pedestrians on the street were all stunned. Han Jin looked up and was shocked. He knew the Knight. When they were escorting the caravan to the Holy Crown City, there was a serious conflict between them. Han Jin and the middle-aged Knight confronted each other for a long time. In the end, he killed the hostage and escaped with the Earthmeld Charm.
How did they come to the West City of the Beitman? Han Jin was puzzled.
"Catch them!" The middle-aged Knight roared, "Lord Dismark ordered us to capture them alive! We will reward them handsomely! "
The Knights on the opposite side were looking at the middle-aged Knight with blame. They came here to talk about cooperation, not to make trouble. Besides, the middle-aged Knight was a general who had been demoted, so they didn't think highly of him. However, these words immediately made them excited. Lord Dismark had personally promised a great reward, and it definitely wouldn't be an ordinary reward!
The Knights shouted in unison, drew their swords and rushed towards them. The pedestrians on the street were in a mess, running in all directions. Sunier and Léger didn't try to join the fight according to their original agreement. Instead, they led the rest of the Knights to retreat. They mixed in the chaotic crowd and didn't attract the attention of the Knights.
"Let's go!" Han Jin roared. His fingers moved like a butterfly, and three fire talismans flew out in three different directions.
"I'm going?" Morrisons was stunned. He originally wanted to charge forward with his sword. The ones who charged at the front were warriors, and the ones who fought to the death were also warriors. Warriors were known to have short lives.
Two of the fire talismans that Han Jin shot out had already been shattered by the Knights. But the fire talismans still exploded. The rapidly expanding flames and huge shockwaves temporarily stopped the Knights from charging forward. One of the fire talismans hit the target, and the horse was turned into a headless corpse. The fire talisman shattered the horse's head in an instant. The Knight on the horse couldn't help but fly off the horse's back. He passed through the flames and fell to the ground in a sorry state.
"Don't talk nonsense. Let's go!" Han Jin finally understood the true meaning of that saying. Cut the weeds and remove the roots! It was definitely not a good thing to let one's enemies roam freely in the world. One could encounter them at any time, and they could bring unexpected harm to oneself.
Morrisons suddenly turned around and rushed straight towards an alley. There was a reason why they decided to leave in the morning and leave in the afternoon. With the addition of Léger, they didn't have to do things the same way as before. First, they had to decide which gate to go through. After that, Michel ran around for half a day and memorized all the streets and alleys they would pass through. Then, he came up with a contingency plan, how to deal with any situation that might arise, and the meeting point of the worst-case scenario. Everyone knew this by heart, so even young Joseph and Stillberg didn't panic at all.
As a matter of fact, Han Jin used to be a private detective. He knew the importance of planning, but there were too many things he didn't know about this world. Sunier used to be a commander, so she paid more attention to planning than Han Jin. However, this was not an army, and Han Jin and the others were not soldiers. Their goal was to find a quiet place, not to fight. Everything had to be planned. It was better not to make a fuss over nothing. Besides, most of the dangers they encountered were sudden and had nothing to do with planning.
The addition of Léger had fundamentally changed the way the team did things. Because of his resolute attitude, everyone had to sit down and patiently discuss the various possibilities. Only Morrisons was a little impatient. In his words, even if they discussed for a month, they still had to rely on their own swords to break through!
However, everyone agreed with Léger's suggestion. He was a little weak by himself, so he could only reluctantly sit down and listen carefully.
"It's a sorcerer!"
"Charge! Charge! "
The Knight shouted and quickly divided into two teams. One team attracted Han Jin's attention from the front, while the other team circled around from the side.
"Don't give him a chance, quick!" The middle-aged Knight rushed to the front with bloodshot eyes. He was the only one who had interacted with Han Jin before, and knew that Han Jin had mastered a very strange magic. As for the other Knight, they were confused and didn't want to give him a chance.
Han Jin sneered and waved his arm. Three more fire talismans shot out and hit three Knight.
The middle-aged Knight didn't slow down at all. He waved his sword like he was driving away flies, and the fire talismans were smashed into pieces. However, the warhorse he was riding on let out a miserable neigh. Knights had the protection of combat energy, but warhorses didn't, so they were the most vulnerable to injuries.
"Die!" The middle-aged Knight raised his sword and swung it at Han Jin with all his might.
The sword flashed, and before it even reached Han Jin, he felt a bone-chilling coldness. His pupils suddenly shrank, and his body moved at the same time, retreating at an extremely fast speed.
The sword light sprinkled on the ground, and visible frost spread in all directions. After using the Art of Spirit Possession, Han Jin's strength, speed, and eyesight had all been greatly improved. He could even clearly see a few flying insects suddenly stiffen and fall straight to the ground.
Han Jin retreated quickly, but the middle-aged Knight was even faster. His legs were tightly clamped around the warhorse's waist. Perhaps because he was using too much strength, the warhorse under him neighed and rushed forward crazily.
Another sword flashed. Han Jin didn't know the power of combat energy, so he didn't dare to take the risk. His body swayed to the left, and he slammed open the door of a house and rushed in.
Of course, the middle-aged Knight wouldn't give up. He urged his warhorse to follow him into the courtyard. But at the moment when he was about to rush in, Han Jin's figure suddenly rose from the wall and rushed toward the Knights behind him.
He didn't release the six fire talismans in vain. He had clearly estimated the strength of those Knights. Except for his old enemy, the other Knights were at most third or fourth level warriors. It wasn't surprising. If Dismark's cavalry were all sixth or seventh level professionals, he would have been able to sweep the continent long ago.
Facing the cold sword flashing, Han Jin was not afraid. He tapped the ground with the tip of his foot, and his body floated up like a swallow to meet the sword flashing.
In the opposite Knight's astonished eyes, a tall wooden figure suddenly appeared and blocked the sword flashing with its own body. The next moment, Han Jin's fist passed through the wooden figure's shoulder and heavily hit the Knight's face.
The Knight's body continued to rush forward, but his head suddenly tilted back until it was twisted to an incomprehensible degree. Finally, he fell from the horse to the ground.
The wooden figure didn't stop for a moment. It jumped up again and opened its arms to hug the next Knight. The Knight had seen the way his companion died. He was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat. He desperately waved his sword to hack at the wooden figure.
Once, twice, thrice … The speed of his sword was quite fast. When the wooden golem charged into his attack range, he slashed three times in a row, leaving three deep wounds on the wooden golem's body. However, those were just wounds. The wooden golem stretched out its right arm, grabbed him, and pulled him down from the horse's back.
"Save me …" The Knight screamed, and then he felt a chill under his ribs. Han Jin had appeared beside him without him knowing, and had just plunged the sword he had just snatched deep into his body.
"Bastard!" With an angry shout, a Knight's spear pierced from Han Jin's right side like a poisonous dragon, aiming straight for Han Jin's neck.
Choosing this position proved that the Knight was very confident, but he couldn't understand how terrifying Han Jin's fighting strength had become after 'Berserk'.
Han Jin stepped back, and the Knight's spear pierced past his body. He stretched out his hands, grabbed the knight's spear, and knelt down at the same time. In a deafening roar, Han Jin had lifted the Knight up.
The Knight spun half a circle in the air, and crashed to the ground with a bang. Although he was protected by his Dou Qi, he couldn't withstand such a violent impact. He spat out a big mouthful of blood.
Before he could get up, Han Jin had jumped to his side and punched him. Boom, boom, boom … three consecutive punches. The Knight's helmet was smashed out of shape. His legs trembled, and he stopped moving.
The rest of the Knight were stunned. Magician? Puppeteer? Barbarian??? (To be continued, if you want to know what will happen next, please go to www.qidian.com, there are more chapters. Support the author, support the original reading!)
