CHAPTER 267: Divine Body

Han Shuo joined Trunks and the group on their way back. They didn't encounter any unexpected incidents, and secretly returned to the base of the Soul Destroyer mercenary band.

The group seemed a little exhausted after a gruelling night. But Trunks had waited too many years, and he obviously didn't want to waste a second. Those who had been original members of the Rainbow Sickle mercenary group now looked at Han Shuo with gleaming eyes.

"You guys, you really captured Janet?" When the sleeping Annie was awakened, she screamed loudly. However, she immediately turned pale and stuttered when she saw the unconscious Janet.

Patting Janet's cheek, Han Shuo wanted to inject magical yuan into her body to wake her from the coma. But his eyebrows suddenly raised in surprise.

Exclaiming "oh" in a light voice, Han Shuo placed his large hand on the back of Janet's head. Five strands of magical yuan as thin as silk swam inside her body, suddenly discovering that her body structure had some places that were different from an ordinary human. Her meridians were a little more fragile, but she had a dozen more bones.

"Bastard! How dare you use Janet?!" Annie cursed angrily as she saw Han Shuo pressing his large hand on Janet's back.

"How is it?" Trunks waited for Han Shuo to wake Janet up. However, Trunks couldn't help but inquire when he saw Han Shuo's puzzled face while Janet was still unconscious.

"This Janet is very strange, her body structure has many differences from that of a normal person!" Han Shuo was astonished. After that, he was even more cautious and let the magical yuan run a few more rounds. In the end, he found that Janet's body was indeed the same as a human's, but the composition of the bones and meridians was different from a normal human's.

"There really is such a strange thing?" Trunks was surprised. He stared at Janet a few times, then nodded, "It is indeed her. I've known her for several years, this is definitely Janet. How can her body be different from a normal human?"

"There is no mistake. Her body is completely different from ours. I'm sure this Janet has some peculiarities!" Han Shuo said with certainty. Then he suddenly remembered the last time he fought Janet. Her deep green combat aura had already dissipated, but she still had the ability to make his arm tremble, which had sown some doubt in his heart.

After Han Shuo listed the peculiarities of Janet, Trunks was stunned for a moment before opening his mouth to say, "I actually know something about this. When Janet had yet to cultivate her combat aura, she actually possessed a very powerful power. I heard that she showed it when she was a child."

"I see, I know what it is now. Janet must have a legendary divine body blessed by the gods. Her body structure has been different from ordinary people since birth!" Han Shuo exclaimed, suddenly remembering Fanny's comment about his body earlier.

Han Shuo's ability to make such rapid progress was entirely due to the practice of demonic magic, but Fanny had mistakenly believed that he had a divine body. At that time, Han Shuo had thought that the divine body talk was just gibberish. Now that he had discovered Janet's body structure, he understood that there really were some magical things on this continent.

"Oh my God! This female bandit really does have a divine body. According to the legend, those with divine bodies become extremely powerful figures. I didn't think we could actually find one here." Trunks was also quite shocked as he looked at the unconscious Janet.

"Already scared? Let us go quickly or Janet won't let you go easily!" Annie clenched her tiny hand and shook her fist at Trunks in a threatening manner.

Shaking his head slightly, Han Shuo sneered, "What about a divine body? It was still captured by me!"

"Wake up!" Han Shuo lifted the restraint on Janet's body and patted her face, smiling cutely as he spoke.

Janet didn't say a word as soon as she woke up, instead she turned to Han Shuo and cursed without stopping. Han Shuo felt really strange that such a pretty girl was spitting out vulgar curses one after the other.

"I'll leave her to you. She can move her mouth now!" Han Shuo stood up with a wry smile, patted Trunks on the shoulder, and walked out.

As Han Shuo left the mountain cave, Odysseus and the other companions were quite self-confident and followed him out. Only Trunks and some old comrades stayed inside to question Janet about Annie's past.

"Bryan, it's been a while since we met, let's have a drink tonight!" Odysseus walked out and immediately smiled at Han Shuo when he offered. This place was still shrouded in a thick fog in the evening, but for some reason, the fog in the sky had gradually dissipated, allowing the bright and clear moonlight to shine directly down.

Most of the other mercenaries were asleep, as it was late at night. The Odysseus gang were quite tired after a busy evening, so they all just sat down in the training area.

"Good!" Han Shuo had nothing to do and picked a random seat to sit cross-legged with Gilbert, Odysseus and the others. He took out the wine the dwarves had made and handed it to Gordon's group.

Even the water mage Aphrodite and the elven archer Nia didn't refuse Han Shuo's bounty. After a few sips of good wine, they all looked up at the moon and shared the desires and aspirations in their hearts.

"I want to become a great swordsmaster. Sooner or later I'll let everyone know the name Gordon!" Gordon, who'd become a senior swordsman, said proudly after a few sips of wine.

"I too must practise my magic and become an Archmage. As long as I advance to Archmage, I can be given a title in any country and become a superior noble!" The water mage Aphrodite expressed her wish quietly, a smile on her lips.

"Ah yes, Bryan, what do you wish?" Odysseus turned to look at Han Shuo.

"More power, money, privileges and beautiful women!" Han Shuo lazed around as he lay on the sparring stage, his hands resting behind the back of his head. He looked at the sky and answered clearly.

"Eh, Bryan, you're really straightforward!" said Odysseus.

"Haha, don't people live to strive for these things? Even though different people have different desires, frankly speaking, don't they all revolve around these things?" Han Shuo said with a smile as he looked humorously at Odysseus .

"hahaha, that's quite true!" Odysseus thought for a moment and nodded.

After Han Shuo and the group had been drinking wine and chatting for quite some time, Trunks walked out of the mountain cave alone. He plopped down next to Han Shuo, picked up the wineskin on the ground next to Odysseus, and threw back his head for a long gulp.

Trunks poured more than half of the remaining good wine into his mouth with a gurgling sound, then abruptly threw the empty wineskin into the sky. His eyes were deep red as he said in a low, choked tone, "I must kill Florida and the Butcher Gustav, and also Bradley Pillon of the Kasi Empire!"

Bradley Pillon was the younger blood brother of the King of the Kasi Empire, Brady Pillon, and a Grand Duke of the Kasi Empire. His territory included only Cesar City, a place separated from Valen City by the Kerlan Mountains. He was a grand aristocrat of less than one person, but over ten thousand in the Kasi Empire, and held enormous power in his hands.

When the head of the Gryphon Legion, Bob Ascher, had betrayed the Lancelot Empire, he'd sought refuge with someone else. That someone else had been the Lord of Cesar City. It was easy to imagine how much power the younger brother of the Kasi King possessed. It was simply impossible to deal with such an immense figure with Trunks' current power.

Han Shuo patted Trunks' shoulders, "Don't worry, I'll help you, nothing is impossible!"

Trunks slammed his fist down violently. The punch contained no combat aura. It hit a hard rock and the back of his hand cracked and bled. Trunks roared like a caged animal, "Damned bastards! I'll make them pay for this!"

Janet suddenly came out with a cold face, looking at Trunks with throbbing veins in her forehead as she said, "For Annie, I will kill them too!"

"Grant, cover her eyes, get her out of here." Trunks turned to look at Janet and screamed abruptly.

The bulky Grant held Annie as he walked out of the mountain cave, his eyes red and swollen. He looked pitifully at the sleeping Annie and sobbed, "Chief, what are we going to do about Annie?"

"Annie is a dear person to me. Believe me, I will protect her from any harm. If she stays with you, sooner or later she'll remember the past, then I'm afraid she'll..."

"No need to say more, take her away, help me take good care of her!" Trunks abruptly cut off Janet's remaining words and said firmly.

Janet nodded without another word and willingly let Grant blindfold her. She slowly climbed up under Grant's guidance and escort.

"Good. I assure you, this revenge will be taken!" Han Shuo patted Trunks' shoulders again and said carefully with a serious expression on his face.

Even though Trunks and Janet hadn't said anything outright, Han Shuo could generally guess what had happened to Annie's body from their attitude.

Trunks treated Annie like his own sister, this hatred obviously had to be returned!
