What's the situation?

Benjamin felt confused, but he wasn't that stupid and wouldn't stand there and let people smash it. Therefore, before the stick in the blacksmith's hand fell www.biquge.info he quickly dodged to the side, dodging the other party's sneak attack.

"I didn't mean to, is it necessary to be so ruthless?" dodging the stick, he turned around, looked at the stunned blacksmith, and said helplessly.

He wanted to figure out why the blacksmith was doing this.

The blacksmith, however, did not seem to have the slightest intention of answering. Recovering from his astonishment, he continued to wave his stick as if he had gone mad, and then attacked Benjamin.

"Are you sick?" Benjamin hurriedly stepped away, turned and ran out of the blacksmith shop.

He didn't know where he had provoked this blacksmith, and he had just said it well, so he turned his face and picked up the stick and beat it, without any reason.

In fact, from the moment he came back to his senses, he had a feeling that he was out of the situation all the time. He felt as if something had happened, but he didn't understand what was happening, and the whole person felt inexplicable.

Therefore, he decided to stay away for a while.

He wasn't interested in continuing to pester—he couldn't kill the blacksmith with magic, could he? The priest was so close that he would definitely find out with magic. Besides, he didn't want to attract too much attention.

Can't be provoked, can't he run?

"Don't run!"

However, the blacksmith's hatred for him seems to have broken through the sky. As soon as Benjamin ran out of the shop, the blacksmith's voice came from behind him, and the passers-by around him couldn't help but look sideways.

What the...... So haunted?

Benjamin turned his head unusually irritably, and even felt a little urge to fight. He didn't understand why the blacksmith was so attached to him, he didn't cut him with a kitchen knife, nor set fire to his shop, why did he have a life and death hatred?

That's weird, isn't it?

However, at this moment, he suddenly saw a figure appear behind the blacksmith.

Bang!

I could only hear a rather strong and loud voice coming from the back of the blacksmith's head. The blacksmith's action was a pause, and then he rolled his eyes and fainted to the ground. The stick also fell to the ground, making a ping-pong sound.

Benjamin was also stunned.

What's the situation?

Behind the blacksmith, a middle-aged woman holding a frying pan appeared at this moment. She glanced at the blacksmith who had fallen to the ground, then at Benjamin, and nodded apologetically.

"I'm sorry, he ...... He's more impulsive, he scares you, don't be angry. ”

“......”

Benjamin didn't speak. The direction of the plot is too weird, and he feels a little confused.

At first, the blacksmith didn't know why, so he picked up a stick and was about to beat him. As a result, now, another lady with a frying pan has appeared, knocking the blacksmith unconscious with one pot and relieving him?

...... Wait a minute.

Benjamin suddenly felt that this lady was a little familiar.

She's not...... Wasn't she the proprietress of the hand-knitting shop just now? They had just met in the knitting shop, and why did she come out of the blacksmith shop again?

Which one is this singing?

"No, what's that...... It's not very convenient here, everyone is watching, let's go talk first. Before Benjamin could ask, the proprietress looked at the nearby crowd of onlookers, laughed awkwardly, and spoke again.

Hearing this, Benjamin raised his eyebrows in some surprise.

Got tired?

If there are no special circumstances, there is no need to avoid the crowd.

At that moment, he suddenly felt that something in front of him was not simple. Therefore, he kept an extra eye - before answering the question, he first released the water elemental perception method, and carefully sensed the elusive proprietress of the boss.

However, the results obtained surprised Benjamin.

The magical elements around this proprietress show a gathering posture that is completely different from that of ordinary people. Moreover, through the perception of mental power, Benjamin can feel that her mental power is much sharper than that of ordinary people.

...... She's a mage?

Benjamin was stunned for a moment before slowly digesting this amount of information.

It's a bit hard to believe, but the elements don't lie. They tell Benjamin that the lady is a mage, so she is a mage.

Not only that, but he also sensed the blacksmith by the way, and the answer he came up with was also a little unacceptable to Benjamin - yes, the blacksmith, he was also a mage.

...... So, is it true that anyone can be a mage these days?

Benjamin felt the urge to look up to the sky and hold his forehead.

Is...... Never mind.

In fact, he has nothing to worry about.

Everyone is a mage, so there's no need to be so tense. The blacksmith would chase after him, and there must have been some misunderstanding in the middle. And, more importantly, it will certainly not be a coincidence that two mages appear together on the border of the kingdom.

Why did they show up here, right next to the gate, and one person opened a shop?

There's definitely something hidden.

Thinking like this, Benjamin suppressed the sense of absurdity in his heart and reluctantly replied: "It's okay, I'm not angry." ”

Hearing this, the proprietress also nodded and said, "It's good that you're not angry." So saying, she turned around, dragged the fainted blacksmith on the ground, and motioned for Benjamin to go with her into the blacksmith's shop.

Benjamin thought about it, walked over, followed the proprietress back to the blacksmith's shop, he wanted to see what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd of the two men.

In this way, the proprietress dragged the fainted blacksmith back, closed the door, and shut out the curious crowd of onlookers.

"Are you a mage?" Benjamin said as he didn't bother to talk so much nonsense, so he directly pierced the window paper, looked at the proprietress and said.

However, hearing this, the proprietress did not show a surprised expression, but nodded unusually calmly.

She didn't seem to have any intention of talking to Benjamin right away, but walked straight behind the blacksmith's stove and lifted a stone brick. Then, the entrance to a secret passage of a black hole was revealed.

"It's still not safe here, you come with me. I'll tell you later if you have any questions. ”

With that, she dragged the blacksmith through the entrance.

It's a secret passage again......

Benjamin felt a little weird. However, he carefully sensed the elements near the proprietress again, and her magic level should not be too high to threaten him. Therefore, after thinking about it for a while, he followed into the secret passage.

After all, everyone is a mage, and under the nose of the church, there is no time for infighting.

In this way, the secret passage is very short, and it takes not long to walk to the end. However, walking out of the exit and looking at the scene in front of him, Benjamin couldn't help but be stunned.

Outside the secret passage is a large room that resembles an underground warehouse. The warehouse was empty and should have looked empty, but it was now very lively. About twenty people, men, women, and children, of all sorts, were standing in the warehouse, looking at the proprietress and Benjamin who had come out of the secret passage.

"Everyone, are you here?" the proprietress said with a warm smile as she glanced at the crowd.

When people saw her, they hurriedly walked up. They took the blacksmith she had dragged and lifted it aside. Then, everyone even chattered and greeted each other, and Benjamin looked confused when he was standing aside.

With a bad premonition, he once again used the water elemental sensing method.

“......”

Benjamin couldn't help but take a deep breath.

That's right, there are more than twenty people here, and each of them is a mage.
