Chapter 869: A Bloody Case Caused by a Money Bag

Half a minute later, Benjamin changed his clothes, smeared his face with blood and dirt, and rushed out of the street corner like a civilian who had just escaped from heaven.

He ran straight in the direction of the church.

"Help, save ......"

Benjamin let out a panicked cry, and on the other side of the church, the paladin at the front seemed to be surprised. Several of them stepped forward together, and with both hands outstretched, they expertly stopped Benjamin.

"Don't worry, our church is blessed by the gods, the enemy hasn't hit here yet, and you're safe now. The priest in charge also came up to reassure him, and quickly began to confirm the information, "Young man, what is your name? Are you a native of the Rhine?

Benjamin gasped for a few breaths, then thought of an identity excuse for the time he was gasping.

"I—my name is Miles, and I'm a merchant from Liam, and I came to hand over the timber, and it turned out to be ...... As a result, ......" said him, and a cry came out of his tone, "my goods, Father, what should I do? You help me, the goods have been thrown away in the inn, can you help me get the ...... back?"

"Young man, don't be alarmed, God has His own plan. The priest spoke quickly, interrupting a request he might have made.

Before Benjamin could start chattering, he turned his head and gave a look. The two paladins understood, took Benjamin's arm, and said to him, "It's okay, it's safe for you to stay here, the enemy will soon be beaten away by us." Closing the Light Barrier, he dragged him into the pile of refugees at the entrance of the church.

However, Benjamin grabbed the paladin's arm and was not directly thrown off by them.

"No...... Paladin, don't throw me with these beggars, it's not safe here...... I, I've got the money, can you let me into the church, I can give you a large sum of money to repair the church......" he whispered to the paladin's ear, in a panicked voice.

"You ......"

The paladin frowned, Benjamin's voice was not small, and everyone else around him heard it. Suddenly, everyone turned their heads angrily and glared at Benjamin dissatisfied.

But the priest in charge suddenly followed.

"Sir, the church hall is for those who have been blessed by the Holy Light, but not everyone can enter it. He whispered to Benjamin, "Only those who are devotion to God are eligible." ”

"God, Father, you must let me in......" Benjamin, like a sick fellow, suddenly pulled out a bag of gold coins and stuffed it into the priest's hand.

The priest weighed the purse, silently accepted it, and nodded to the paladin.

Suddenly, the paladin put down Benjamin. They squeezed through the crowd in their armour, leaving a path, and then, instead of carrying them, they used the ones they carried and helped Benjamin in with great graciude.

And when Benjamin entered the hall of the church, with a bang, the paladin closed the door, and countless angry eyes were blocked.

"So many people ......"

Benjamin was put down by the paladins, first patting the dust on his body, and then glancing at the hall, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

There were no fewer people in the hall than outside, but the difference was that none of the people here looked so embarrassed. They sat in the chairs where they usually listened to the sermon, with a calm expression, neatly dressed, and even a serving servant beside them. The hall was quiet, and everyone was just whispering something, as if there was no war going on.

Benjamin came in, and they only glanced at it casually, and then looked away.

"Hurry up, get down to business when you're too addicted to the play, and the support of the church may arrive at any time in the Rhine. The system urged in his heart.

Benjamin nodded as well.

There didn't seem to be many people in the church hall to manage the order, so he simply walked straight in the direction of the basement. Some of the people on the side gave Benjamin a surprised look, but soon they turned their heads back and went their separate ways.

Benjamin, on the other hand, left the hall through the back door with ease, and walked through the hallway to the door of the basement.

"You ......"

There were several paladins guarding the basement door, looking at Benjamin with some confusion.

"I'm your uncle. Benjamin smiled slightly, and with a wave of his hand, several ice arrows flew out, piercing the paladins guarding the door into a sieve.

From then on, he no longer concealed it, and directly blasted open the basement door with a cloud of water vapor, flew in, and then snatched the only oil painting in the room.

He glanced twice at the painting, the most common religious subject, depicting the decisive battle between the two brothers in the Valley of God's Forsaken. But Morris says that the painting contains a blueprint of St. Peter's Basilica, and that should be it.

Behind him, there was a faint exclamation from the priest in charge.

Benjamin smiled coldly and turned around. When he opened the water elemental realm, he would inevitably emit a little magic fluctuation, and at this time, several figures had already appeared in the corridor outside the basement.

He didn't dodge or dodge, and went straight to meet him.

"You...... You're not ......."

Soon, the presiding priest appeared in front of Benjamin with several paladins. The moment they saw Benjamin clearly, they were all stunned, the young man who was floating in the air and surrounded by the current, was almost like two people just now.

"I'm sorry, I don't want to alarm too many people, so I have to play this little trick. Benjamin shrugged his shoulders and said innocently.

"You...... Who are you?" the chief priest barely calmed down, a rune flashed in his eyes, first summoning a barrier of holy light, and then asked sharply.

"I can tell you, but before that, give me the money back. ”

As he spoke, Benjamin clapped his hands. The priest couldn't see what was happening, but the barrier of light he had just summoned broke, and then the money bag in his jacket pocket flew out of its own accord and flew away from him as if it were being held up by something.

With a whoosh, the money bag fell into Benjamin's hands.

The priest's eyes widened in disbelief, and the paladins panicked.

"Evil, demonic ......" seemed to think of something, and their faces changed in unison, and they immediately turned around and wanted to run. Unfortunately, several ice bushes suddenly grew on the floor, tying them all into a sieve.

"What the hell is going on?"

At this moment, the crowd outside the church also looked inside blankly. They didn't know what was going on, but half a minute ago, the priest and the paladin suddenly all ran in, and they were still left without a master for a while.

What's going on inside?

However, just when they didn't know what to do, there was a loud bang, and a hole was blasted out of the roof of the church in full view of everyone.

Benjamin flew out of it and disappeared from everyone's sight.

Everyone was stunned.

The next second, the church suddenly shook violently. Dense cracks grew out of nowhere, quickly climbed up the white walls, and soon spread all over the church.

People were stunned for a moment, then turned around and ran.

"The church is going to fall!

The people gathered around the door of the church dispersed in a hurry, and the church hall was full of celebrities, like a pig's nest at the moment, scrambling one by one, desperately arching out of it.

About half a minute later.

Rumble!

With a loud bang, a huge ruin appeared in the church block of the Rhine, where the war had not yet spread.
