Chapter 604: The Mysterious Encirclement

The scene was a little stiff for a while.

Benjamin didn't expect that these spies would directly throw the spearhead at him. Of course, he is not afraid that he will be treated as a spy, but once he needs to prove his identity, the situation will become very troublesome.

- It would be too embarrassing for him to be exposed to the students like this, right?

However, looking at the expressions of the students and Leila, it seems that there is no real suspicion.

"You...... What are you talking about, I have absolutely no idea what the situation is. Therefore, like an innocent villager in a werewolf game, he showed a blank expression and made his own defense.

And Leila's reaction also made him very satisfied.

She controlled the dark shadow, tightened the restraint on those people, and said, "If you want to change the topic, you don't have to worry about other people's affairs, let's answer my question first." ”

When Benjamin saw this, he couldn't help but wonder if Leila had already recognized him, so he cooperated with him and continued the play.

However, just as those people were constantly tormented by magic, the change regenerated. Some vague figures began to appear on the horizon in the distance, walking towards them. When the students looked around, they noticed that no matter which direction they were in, some figures began to appear.

At that moment, Benjamin quickly realized what the problem was.

These guys...... It seems that they didn't just come to collect information about the academy, they came to step on the spot.

There weren't many pedestrians nearby, but after figuring out the direction of the students' group, they set up a very large encirclement here. It may be that they are not sure of the specific route, so they set the encirclement a little bigger, but they also happened to avoid the range of the water elemental induction method.

Benjamin walked all the way and was unaware of the encirclement.

And now, after these "passers-by" revealed their stuff, they seemed to have adopted some secret communication method and notified the people surrounding outside. So, these people came around, and they just threw the finger at Benjamin just to stall for time.

Interesting......

Benjamin didn't panic.

He was curious, what was the force behind the encirclement? Is it really the church?

"Teacher, what's going on? There are a lot of people out there......"

"Catch the small ones and attract the big ones, and we seem to be surrounded by people. Leila frowned, glanced at the spies, and said, "Don't worry, at least, we still have hostages here." ”

As the crowd in the distance approached, the students quickly realized that there were a lot of them. There were hundreds of people pouring in from all directions.

Fortunately, they also quickly discovered that most of these hundreds of people were just ordinary people. There wasn't much spiritual coercion emanating from these people, and a few ...... It doesn't look like a priest either.

Benjamin also felt a little confused.

I don't know if there will be any strange means, but among the people here, he only senses the mage. If you count them, there are probably only a few dozen mages here, not even much more than them.

What's going on?

Not a church...... Who could that be?

"Stop, take a step closer, and I'll make you look good. ”

Seeing the crowd getting closer and closer, Layla could only chant a spell and summon several dark shadows that converged into claws and guarded the student's side. She took a step forward and said loudly.

The crowd finally stopped.

"It seems...... You're from the Academy of Magic?" asked a mage who looked young, squinting his eyes and staring coldly at the students.

Instead of answering, Leila gestured to the people she had magically bound up and said, "It seems...... These fools are your gang. ”

The middle-aged mage glanced at the people, looked displeased, and said, "A few useless wastes, you can dispose of them however you want." But...... Without further ado, my master would like to ask you mages to take a trip. ”

Hearing this, the students looked at each other, and Leila's appearance was also a little confused.

"Who are you? a traitor mage trained by the Church?"

"No, you're mistaken. The middle-aged mage shook his head, as if he didn't mean to say much, "Who we are, you will naturally know when the time comes." Come with us first. ”

"What if I don't?" asked Leila.

When the middle-aged mage heard this, he glanced at the person next to him. Then, those ordinary people who couldn't do magic drew their swords and rushed directly towards the students, looking like they had been waiting for a long time. And he took some other mages with him and began to chant.

Benjamin couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

Who the hell are these people?

It doesn't matter if they suddenly appear in the border area of Freeden, just set up a siege here, and forcibly take them away. There is no doubt that the other party must have secretly observed the academy for a long time.

Could it be other mage forces in Fredon?

However, he had only established his authority, so it should be impossible for any mage force to dare to touch their academy......

As Benjamin thought about it, the sword-wielding man had already rushed forward, and Leila led the students to fight back. She strikes mercilessly, the claws of the Shadow swinging, taking a life almost every second.

Blood splattered like a fountain, and some of the students who were not deeply involved in the world were stunned.

"Old, Teacher ......"

"Concentrate on it, death is the most beautiful picture in the world. Leila chuckled at the corners of her mouth and said, "If you don't want to be a part of the picture, show the courage to fight these people to the end." ”

Most of the students had obviously never killed anyone, but in front of them, these guys were brandishing their swords and roaring at them. They couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion, and their brains were hot, and they also left those hesitations behind.

However, in the face of magic, these ordinary people were undaunted, and still rushed forward to send them to death, dragging the students and Laila at once, unable to pull their hands.

Then, the magic of the mages came.

With strong magical fluctuations, the wind surged, like a typhoon suddenly rolling up on the flat ground. In an instant, the shields held out by many students were defeated. Leila hurriedly struck out, summoning a pitch-black wall that surrounded it like all the students.

"Good, terrible power, is this high-level magic?"

Leila shook her head and said, "It's just intermediate-level magic, it's only a dozen of them used at the same time to produce this kind of power." ”

Her expression was composure, and the dark walls trembled in the wind, like huge reels of film surrounding the students, but they were not broken. The students also chanted incantations at this moment, summoning new shields and replenishing them, barely blocking the onslaught of the wind.

But despite this, many people have been blown so much that they almost flew out.

"I underestimated you. The middle-aged mage's voice came from outside, "A group of students for a few months shouldn't seem to have such strength. Is there a mistake in the information?"

"It's because your intelligence is so ill-informed!" a student couldn't help it, and suddenly shouted angrily, "Do you know who our dean is? dare to besiege us here? All of you together are no match for the dean!"

"Maybe...... the middle-aged mage reacted indifferently as he continued, "However, no matter how strong he is, he can't save you." ”
