Benjamin felt a chill down his spine. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

At that moment, he immediately turned on the perception of the water element, and observed all the places that could be perceived in the vicinity.

In the blue vision, the surroundings were empty, and there was no trace of anyone except the mages who knew each other. However, seeing all this, the feeling of being watched in the dark in Benjamin's heart still lingers.

It's so weird......

It had been a long time since he had escaped from the royal capital that he had been called "Benjamin Reese." Otherwise, it's like these mages, who only know to call him "Benjamin", but they don't know that he is actually from the Rieser family in the royal capital. Or else like the Bishop and Dick, even if they recognize him, they only think of him as Grant.

Probably, in the eyes of most people, Benjamin Reeser is still the inconspicuous and incompetent aristocrat he used to be, still hiding in his home in the royal capital and shivering. And the one who disappeared without a trace should be Grant Reese.

Therefore, this sentence is even more terrifying in Benjamin's eyes.

- He has already run away from the kingdom of Hori, and has been safe until now, but as a result, he was called out by a complete stranger. What's going on?

"How did that person disappear from the tent just now, did you record the whole process?" Benjamin asked in his mind as he thought about it.

There were too many suspicions, and he had to figure them out one by one.

He was going to start with the inhuman "skills" of the young man.

"Hmm...... It's true that you've recorded it, but I don't think you will get anything out of it. However, the system hesitated for a moment and gave such an answer.

Benjamin was a little puzzled: "Why?"

"Because, after I slowed down his whole extrication movement, I didn't find anything special. "He simply cracked the ice and turned around and ran." It's just that he's moving too fast, so it seems to you that he has disappeared out of thin air. ”

“......”

Benjamin wasn't quite convinced by this explanation.

From the moment he heard the sound of the ice shattering, he had already begun to react. He recited the incantation, summoned an ice arrow, and struck forward, the whole process definitely not taking more than three seconds. And now, the system told him that this person had already run away in the past three seconds, relying on two pairs of legs, and left him a strip of rags by the way?

That's.

Who is he? a super-soldier injected with serum, or a mutant with some special abilities?

"Is it really something that a normal human can do to break free from my control by brute force and slip out of this tent faster than the human eye can catch it?" he confirmed to the system again.

"But that's what he did, haven't you also investigated, he's not a mage, he's just an ordinary person. As he spoke, the system paused, and added, "However, didn't he also mention the potions researched by the Mage Guild before, maybe those potions researched have this special effect, so he runs like a superman." ”

Hearing this, Benjamin was stunned.

...... Potions?

Still...... It's a real possibility.

Benjamin nodded thoughtfully.

If anything, he'd gotten magic items from the priest before, which could make people more agile. From this point of view, if you think about it carefully, if the potion researched by the mage here can make people go beyond the limits of the human body and do something that ordinary people can't do, then it is not completely unacceptable.

After all, he really didn't know anything about it.

At that moment, Benjamin's curiosity was ignited again.

Potions...... What the hell is it?

Although Benjamin didn't quite understand, he listened to what the young man had just said, and the Mage Guild was still working on a potion that was "immune to all magic and divine magic". It can be seen that the research level of the mages here has reached a very high level.

And, more importantly, can this kind of thing really be studied? If it is, then the caster is still playing with yarn?

Thinking of this, Benjamin felt a headache.

Originally, he thought that magic and magic represented the pinnacle power of this world, but now it seems that this is far from the case. If that so-called "magic potion" really has all kinds of magical effects, and the output is not small, there will be many people in this world who can compete with mages.

If this is the case, the social structure of this world may be completely different from what he imagined. Under the influence of this potion, the caster can still have a high status, but it is impossible to stand at the top of this world without worry.

- Even ordinary people, if they drink a potion or something, they can be overturned.

Benjamin's heart suddenly felt a sense of crisis.

In the future, even in the face of ordinary people, he will have to be a little careful. Just like this strange young man he met today, if he really wanted to take Benjamin's life, Benjamin was unalert and had no chance of surviving.

Truly......

Benjamin immediately thought of another question.

In retrospect, that guy, he had too many opportunities to finish Benjamin, and he didn't do anything. He just ran here, was frozen by Benjamin, pulled it around, and then left a strip of cloth, and disappeared mysteriously.

What does that mean? Welcome him to Ikor?

Fear...... There are no tracking missions issued by Her Majesty.

So what is his real purpose?

"Lord Benjamin?"

Just when he was puzzled, suddenly, a somewhat surprised inquiry interrupted Benjamin's thoughts. Benjamin looked up and saw Augustine standing outside the tent, opening the door and peeking in, looking at him with some confusion.

"I'm fine. Benjamin came back to his senses, and when he saw this scene, he had to shake his head and reply.

Hearing this, Augustine looked around for a while, his expression still puzzled: "What about the lost young man just now? Didn't he let him live here? Where did this kid go? By the way, I seem to have felt the magic fluctuation just now, Lord Benjamin, is this kid not quite right?"

Hearing this, Benjamin shrugged his shoulders, laughed helplessly, and said, "Isn't it just wrong......

After saying this, he paused, and then roughly explained what had just happened to Augustin. And after listening to his explanation, Augustine was also stunned.

“...... Why, I've seen a lot of mercenaries, why haven't I seen them at all?" he seemed to feel a little guilty because of his blindness.

"He's just calling himself that, who knows if he's not. Seeing this, Benjamin shook his head and said, "But it's okay, he shouldn't be coming back." Let's all go and rest, and be careful in the future. ”

Hearing this, Augustine had a worried expression on his face, but he still didn't say anything, nodded, and left.

Benjamin also sighed as he watched the other party leave.

There are still too many unknown things, and these things, I am afraid he can't figure it out today.

So, after thinking about it for a while, he decided to put these things aside for now, and go back to his tent, and get ready to rest—it was too late, and he had to rest again tomorrow.

It's a bit of a lot going on today.

In this way, Benjamin, feeling a little tired, lay down in his tent and fell into a deep sleep.

Eventually, the night in the wasteland was calm again, and nothing special happened. The next morning, the mages got up and continued on their way. And the good news is that it was probably stimulated by Benjamin's steam flight yesterday, and today two more mages have learned the art of flying.

In this regard, Benjamin could only say that pressure makes people progress, and suggested that the rest of the people today should feel the pleasure of rolling in the sky again, and after being sternly rejected, he had to give up the idea.

They continued on foot, following the route they had planned.

There was nothing unplanned along the way, except for encountering a few wild beasts, which were bombarded to death by the mages and treated as game and eaten deliciously. They just went all the way, without much rest, without even leaving time for meditation, just to hurry.

Finally, three days later, Benjamin and his party walked out of the wasteland without any problems.
