Groove ......

Hearing this, Benjamin couldn't help but take a deep breath and try to digest this amazing news. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

I thought I had found the Peach Blossom Spring, but it turned out to be ...... But entered the Dragon Gate Inn?

From the initial shock, he thought of the pale and emaciated cheeks of the people in the village, and the bone fragments he had found at the beginning, and gradually, he began to feel a little like that. There seemed to be rumors of cannibals in the Candela Mountains, but he didn't expect that the cannibals here turned out to be a group of mages!

And the dozen or so mages locked up in the dungeon are probably not prisoners, but the rations that these people have.

It's magical......

A group of mages 10,000 years ago, hiding in the belly of this hidden mountain, extended their most terrifying tradition of magic - cannibalism. No one knows why there is such a tradition, but the people here hold it as an article of faith.

This village...... Is it really a human village?

In this way, the question in his heart was answered, but Benjamin was not happy at all.

The guys want to eat him.

The intentions of the elders were simply too obvious, and they said some inconsistencies and forcibly kept Benjamin for an extra day, just to make it easier for them to do it. And with this numerical advantage, they don't even bother to make up a lie, just perfunctory - after all, who cares what the food thinks?

Benjamin reckoned that the men would be on the move tonight.

I've got to do something about it.

His first thought was to go for the best. But think about it again, a group of cannibalistic mages stay here, and they will go out to "forage" from time to time, which is simply endless trouble!

When a lone mage bumps into them, it's a dead end. If the church finds out about them, they will become a weapon of public opinion for the church, using it to smear the image of the mage among the people, which is simply a time bomb.

Otherwise...... Find a way to get rid of them?

Benjamin fell into deep thought.

There are hundreds of mages in this village, and it is really not so easy to kill them all. Those three elders should be the strongest here, and their strength is not particularly outstanding, but this weird cannibalistic sacrifice is ...... There's no guarantee that they won't come up with any weird tricks.

"What moves and weaknesses do they have, should they be written in those books?" he asked, turning to the system again.

The system was surprised: "What? You still want to do with them?"

"Of course. Benjamin replied, "Now they're watching us, too, and it's easy to be spotted if you want to run." People are more familiar with the terrain than us, and under the pursuit all the way, we can't take any advantage, so it's better to strike first, and we can also take the lead. ”

If it's really easy to escape, he may choose to run away, but the point is that it's hard to escape!

Running around this mountain range full of monsters is definitely not a wise choice.

"Okay, in fact, their magic system is still quite similar to yours, at most, the dark magic here is particularly developed, and there are more means of the side door, you have to be careful......"

The system talked about some of the characteristics of magic here, and Benjamin had a rough idea in mind, and the rudiments of the plan slowly emerged. Soon, he stepped out of the tent and quietly informed the other mages in the camp.

It was already night, and he didn't know when the ogre would make a move, so he could only prepare as soon as possible.

After the notice, he ran to find Luke, saying that he was walking, and asked him to accompany him for a walk in the mountainside. Luke's attitude was certainly enthusiastic, and he took Benjamin with him and began to wander around.

"My lord, why do you suddenly have such a leisure mood and suddenly want to take a walk?"

"I'm out of dinner, so I'm going to walk and digest it. ”

“......”

In this way, while walking back and forth in this area, Benjamin also turned on the water elemental sensing method, scanning the terrain here. The only entrance to the valley was the cave they had entered, and the large mouth above their heads. Benjamin wanted to deal with all these people, so he naturally blocked the entrances and exits.

If you escape one or two, that's a hassle.

And in the course of this walk, Benjamin could also feel that Luke was trying to take him to the edge, as if he didn't want to get him near the center of the village at the moment.

Other words...... Have they already started to prepare?

Benjamin sensed the houses in the outlying villages, and although the lights were on, the people inside were gone.

They are also fast enough.

Thinking so, when he came to a relatively remote location, he suddenly stopped and asked Luke, "By the way...... I've always had a curious question. How did you find out about such a rare hiding place?"

Luke replied casually, "It's nothing, it's just luck." Our ancestors once left us a map about this place, so we came here. ”

"I see...... But why didn't your ancestors tell you, don't eat human flesh, it's hard to eat? ”

Luke was stunned.

Benjamin took a few steps back, and a faint ice mist suddenly appeared around him, spreading outward little by little.

"You still found out......"

However, after a brief pause, Luke grinned and smiled eerily. He didn't say any incantation, and the dark elements around him moved, and the night, which had no light, became a little darker again.

Benjamin was shocked.

"Didn't you say they didn't have any special methods, why are they all casting spells without spells now?" he asked the system speechlessly.

"They didn't write it in their book, and I don't know about it......"

As Benjamin was talking to the system, strange magic fluctuations were also coming from the front. Then, in front of Luke, a strange black shadow suddenly condensed.

Seeing this, Benjamin hurriedly came back to his senses and no longer hesitated.

...... Forget it, what about the weird means, he won't even be able to beat a mage with mediocre strength.

Under his command, the ice mist swarmed up and surrounded Luke.

Benjamin's strength has been growing, and the ice mist he summons is no longer something that ordinary mages can resist. Trapped in it, Luke has no resistance. He didn't even have time to complete the silent dark magic he had just made, and he was frozen into an ice sculpture, and his life passed away, becoming a complete corpse.

Benjamin easily took out Luke.

Benjamin, however, suddenly felt a creepy feeling.

After Luke's death, for some reason, the black shadow still did not disperse, and still floated there quietly, reflecting Luke's smiling face in an eerie way.

How so?

Frightened, Benjamin hurriedly summoned another blister and wrapped himself in it, just in case. And he hid in the blister, observing everything in front of him

When out of control, all magic dissolves on its own and returns to heaven and earth as an element. It's the law of magic, and there shouldn't be any accidents.

He also recognized this dark shadow as a primary magic called the "Black Hand", which had a certain amount of control and aggression. His mages had been used in front of him, and they weren't particularly difficult tricks.

But that's why Benjamin feels even more weird.

In this case, the shadow should have dissipated long ago.

Unless Luke is still alive.
