Interior of Central Fort of city wall Fortress.

It is not as spacious as imagined, but rather narrow and cramped, with walls on both sides of the hard stone floor spaced at regular intervals.

There is a wall lamp infused with "Everlasting Light" magic. Even so, the entire interior is still depressing and gloomy.

Tang Zheng, President Bert Jin, and "black" Pabel stepped on the steps of the spiral staircase and walked downwards.

Every time a step falls, there is a faint echo that echoes through the walls.

And at this moment.

Tang Zheng finally knows the identity of the person who entrusted the second task "Adamantite Rank".

""Martial Lord"G·Jin?"

Tang Zheng sounded surprised and looked to the side in surprise, President Bert Jin who was deliberately one step behind:

"Adventurer's Guild will also accept the commission from Demi-Human? I mean... at the Holy Kingdom."

"Black" Pabel remained silent and didn't seem to care about Tang Zheng's description.

"It's impossible to be normal, let alone Holy Kingdom, even in other countries..., well, this kind of thing probably won't happen."

President Bert Jin had a complicated expression and spoke slowly:

"This matter is indeed a special situation. We don't know the specific situation and terrain of Abelion Hills. We need Demi-Human's assistance in this matter."

Tang Zheng waved his hand.

"That's not what I meant. My relationship with that "Martial Lord" Ge Jin is not as good as you think." Tang Zheng responded.

"But that "Martial Lord" Ge Jin has designated to see you. "Black"Pabel suddenly spoke, his steps slowed down, and he said in a worried tone:

"Demi-Human does not believe in us humans, and similarly, we humans do not believe in Demi-Human."

"And this "Martial Lord" Ge Jin took the initiative to fight his way through Abelion Hills to ask for help, and brought detailed information over - worthy of admiration."

"We need Demi-Human's help, otherwise the vast Abelion Hills will be a dead end for us."

"He has been in the Baharuth Empire for 10 years. Maybe there is someone in the empire who can make "Martial Lord" Ge Jin trust him more, but that time is gone."

"Now only you and Ge Jin have known each other for a long time, and only you two can barely maintain the fragile cooperative relationship between humans and Demi-Human in the coming situation."

Tang Zheng After knowing that it was Ge Jin, he already knew the cause and effect, and looked thoughtful about these words.

His eyes were very calm.

From the very beginning, Go Jin was a card used by Tang Zheng to connect with the "Free Will" adventurer team.

"Such a big matter shouldn't be something you can decide." Tang Zheng looked at the "black" Pabel on the side.

"Yeah."

"Black" Pabel tapped his chin and responded seriously, "This is the strategy determined by Her Majesty the Holy Queen."

"Otherwise, even as "Nine Colors", he would not be able to withstand the impact and consequences of allowing humans to cooperate with Demi-Human."

"I see." Tang Zheng sighed, "Your Majesty is as gentle and kind as the rumors say."

"Black" Pabel glanced at Tang Zheng with his narrow eyes, opened his mouth to say something, and finally swallowed it back.

Using "gentleness" and "kindness" to praise a king is not a good description. He knows that Tang Zheng doesn't mean that, plus there are such rumors about Central City in his country.

"Black"Pabel can't help but have a headache.

"What you just said, if you say it in front of His Majesty's admirers, will definitely be challenged."

"Black" Pabel still chooses to remind you.

Tang Zheng smiled softly.

The direction the three of them were heading towards was the cell where Go Jin was being held. To be precise, it should be said that Go Jin took the initiative to let himself be imprisoned.

This is a way to show sincerity, albeit a bit clumsy.

Tang Zheng doesn't think that this method can quickly gain Holy Kingdom's attention. The reason for mobilizing elites so quickly should be the reminder from Slane Theocracy.

We haven't reached the location of the prison cage yet.

Tang Zheng heard a faint quarrel echoing in the air.

"Auland Your Excellency, just leave it to me to take care of you. You have been sitting here for a day and a night and you need a good rest."

A calm voice sounded.

"--Hey, I have already told you that I will personally take care of this Demi-Human!"

A rough voice came immediately after, with deep impatience in his tone:

"Or what do you want to do? Don't think that I don't know your thoughts. I can't even hide those eyes full of resentment towards Demi-Human!"

A rough voice roared.

"This is the strong man who defeated me. It is the real Warrior that I recognize. How could it be handed over to you?"

"Heh."

"Do those dirty nobles who barely survived being deprived of their territory some time ago want to vent their anger on such a truly Warrior strong man!"

"Auland, Your Excellency, please be careful what you say!"

"We don't have that intention, and you are not the only one who insists on the so-called "Warrior spirit"!"

"We are soldiers and we obey orders. Even if we have personal grudges, we will not put them above it!"

The sounds of fierce arguments became increasingly clear, reaching the ears of the Tang Zheng trio who were approaching here.

"Black" Pabel's already sharp and dangerous eyes were a little cold, and he couldn't help but speed up a few steps.

Soon.

The three of them arrived at the location of Go Jin's cage.

I saw a strong and burly man wearing a helmet with horns, sitting at the door of the prison, confronting a small team of soldiers.

As the three Tang Zheng appeared, the quarrel stopped.

The team of soldiers was the first to see "Black" Pabel, who was walking quickly at the front. Their faces suddenly changed, and they quickly lowered their heads respectfully:

"Master Soldier!"

"...!"

"Master Soldier!"

The burly man also turned his head and looked at "Black" Pabel, with a beast-like smile on his face, "You're back."

During the conversation.

The burly man looked at Tang Zheng, looking up and down, his eyes full of curiosity.

"Auland! Is this your attitude towards your superior? How many times have I told you!"

"Black" Pabel spoke with a cold face, making the team of soldiers nearby shrink back in fear.

"Disrespect, Sir Soldier!"

Auland then got up from the ground. It seemed that his movements were standard, but he saluted somewhat casually.

Auland--Holy Kingdom, one of "Nine Colors", is a strong man who was awarded the title of "Nine Colors" by the previous generation of holy kings based solely on his strength.

Although he and "Black" Pabel belong to the same "Nine Colors", in terms of the Holy Kingdom's soldier class status, he is only at the level of "squad leader".

This situation occurs because Auland doesn't like to obey orders and wants to command him, unless it is someone stronger than him.

He often had conflicts with superiors and nobles, resulting in being demoted dozens of times.

In the entire Central Fort, the only one who can make him obey orders is the "black" Pabel who defeated him once.

""Red"Auland?"

Tang Zheng felt a move in his heart when he heard the other party's name.

In his opinion, the other party's character and way of doing things are actually more suitable for him to be an adventurer, rather than a soldier who follows the rules and needs to obey orders.

"You guys go back first."

"Black" Pabel spoke to the team of soldiers on the side.

"Yes, Sir Soldier." The captain of the team responded respectfully, leading the team to leave quickly.

"Tell me what's going on." "Black" Pabel said with a cold face.

"Hehe."

"Red" Auland chuckled, "I just think these young soldiers may cause unnecessary trouble."

"This cage can't trap that guy."

Once any idiot among these soldiers who have a grudge against Demi-Human angers Go Jin, things will become troublesome.

If something unexpected happens, in the absence of "Black" Pabel, only he can stop Ge Jin.

"You are the adventurer that Go Jin cares about. Our soldier chief has mentioned it before. It seems that you are very powerful."

"Do you want a fight?"

After "Red" Auland responded, he immediately looked at Tang Zheng and spoke enthusiastically.

"Okay, Auland, leave this to us." "Black" Pabel interrupted.

"Okay, okay."

"Red" Auland shrugged his shoulders, patted the dust on his pants, yawned and said, "Then I'll go back and take a rest first."

"Heh."

"You don't have much time to rest now. Get ready. We will go to "Khalinsha" later." "Black" Pabel reminded in a serious tone.

"Oh, okay." "Red" Auland touched the stubble on his face, grinned, turned around and left quickly.

"Black" Pabel shook his head, looked at Tang Zheng, and said embarrassedly, "I'll make you two laugh, come with me."

During the conversation.

"Black" Pabel has opened the cell door and walked in. Every time he walked a certain distance, another cell door appeared. After opening three cell doors in a row,

A rather spacious prison cell appeared in front of several people.

Ge Jin's huge figure, more than three meters tall, sat quietly in the center of the cell. There was some food and water next to him, but he didn't seem to have eaten it.

Whoosh!

Ge Jin opened his eyes and looked at the three people standing outside through the iron railings. His eyes immediately fell on the white figure.

"Your aura has become stronger than the last time we met." Ge Jin said quietly.

Tang Zheng looked at Ge Jin with a hint of fatigue in his expression. "It seems that a lot of things have happened during this time."

"How did you know I was at the Holy Kingdom."

"Because "Regeneration Potion"."

"So that's it."

After a brief conversation, the air became quiet again.

Presidents "Black" Pabel and Bert Jin looked at each other without interrupting.

Just from the conversation between the two, they found that Tang Zheng's previous statement that "the relationship between the two is not as good as imagined" did not mean the slightest bit of humility.

"We have only met once, why would you trust me?" Tang Zheng is indeed a little curious.

"Trust?"

Ge Jin shook his head. "To be honest, I don't like you who use Demi-Human's blood to make potions, but among all the people I have come into contact with, you are the only one who looks at Demi-Human the same way as Osk."

"In your human terms, you are a good person."

Suddenly I was issued a "good guy" card.

Tang Zheng was speechless for a moment and could only show a helpless look.

"The fact that you can appear here means that there is no problem here at the Holy Kingdom. Can you leave?" Ge Jin said.

"Of course."

"Black" Pabel first looked at Tang Zheng, and when Tang Zheng nodded in response, he spoke, took out the key from his pocket and prepared to open the cell door.

"No need!"

Ge Jin stood up, a powerful aura overflowed from his body, and with a casual pull of his rough palm, he tore apart the seemingly solid iron railing in front of him.

Bert Jin President's eyelids twitched!

With the confirmation of Ge Jin, the key figure of Demi-Human, everyone left together.

Late at night!

The rain outside has stopped.

A half-moon appeared in mid-air, obscured by a faint mist.

When Tang Zheng and his group came out of Central Fort, the sky had already turned completely dark.

Everyone boarded the carriage again, but this time there were two carriages leaving Central Fort, and there were three more people: "Black" Pabel, "red" Auland, and Ge Jin.

The two carriages rushed back in the direction of "Khalinsha" at the same time.

Gudongdong--

Gudongdong--

The wheels of the carriage turned rapidly on the wet ground, making a regular buzzing sound.

Tang Zheng was sitting by the window, looking out the window from time to time, with deep thought in his eyes. He knew why everyone was so anxious.

According to the wishes of President Adventurer's Guild, the elite Holy Knights and Cleric Corps of the Holy Kingdom will all arrive at "Khalinsha" tonight.

As the top combat power of the Holy Kingdom, the two "black" Pabel will inevitably participate in this war against Undead.

Given the current state of affairs.

In a day or two at most, we will quickly set off for Abelion Hills... maybe even faster!

At midnight.

The city "Khalinsha", Fortress, reappeared in front of the two cavalry teams.

"President, please take this..." Tang Zheng leaned on the carriage of the carriage and spoke to President Bert Jin on the side, but he was just halfway through his words.

Tang Zheng suddenly stretched out his hand to open the carriage curtain and looked out of the carriage!

Dazzling white rays of light, dozens of them, flew rapidly from the mid-air in the distance. They were extremely eye-catching in this late night environment.

"Their direction is here!" President Bert Jin exclaimed with shock on his face.

"Angel?"

Tang Zheng squinted his eyes. President Bert Jin could not see clearly, but he could see clearly with his eyes.

Those streaks of white light are summons of silver armor-shaped Pegasus horses that look similar to Angel.

"Third-Tier Angel Summoning·Steed Angel." Tang Zheng knows this type of Angel Summoning thing.

A special Angel that has no attack power but can travel long distances, similar to a riding monster.

In his field of vision, each "Steed Angel" had two figures in strange and strange costumes sitting on it.

Dressed like that...

"[Sunlight Scripture], it came so fast." Tang Zheng felt dark in his heart.
