A few days later, Benjamin and his mages traveled to the mountains northwest of Carretus. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

In the past few days, the situation in China has changed. In order to find Benjamin, the church even issued a wanted warrant through the mouth of the king, and all Benjamin and the mages who appeared more under him were wanted. Of course, their excuse is very simple - to fornicate with the Kingdom of Hori with the intention of subverting the regime, and very shamelessly copy Ikor for his wanted reasons.

At the moment, their portraits and names are hung in almost every town in Caritus, and the intensity of the wanted is absolutely unprecedented.

However, the wanted warrant does not link Benjamin to the Declaration of Free Magic. It may be that the intention is too obvious, and the church doesn't want to help Benjamin with free publicity.

But in reality, there is no need for publicity, and the "Declaration of Free Magic" has become the hottest topic of the moment for Carretus.

Although it has been officially banned, among the people, many people have used the most basic entry-level magic according to the above methods. The Church has also begun to try to control public opinion and spread false rumors, but the persuasiveness of people to see the small flames they have summoned is unparalleled.

Therefore, even though the Church strives to control public opinion, the popularity of the "Declaration of Freedom and Magic" continues to rise under the word of mouth of the people.

Benjamin is well aware that this upward period will last for at least two months.

The church can't do anything, and the law doesn't hold the people accountable. Now almost everyone is spreading the Freedom Magic Manifesto, catching one or two people to make an example, the church has tried, but it doesn't work, and they can't really arrest everyone.

So, while Benjamin didn't know what the church was up to right now, it didn't matter if the anger of the gang was coming at him.

Luckily he ran fast.

Of course, he didn't just run into the mountains to avoid the limelight. The situation in Carretus can be brewed a little longer, and it would be better for Benjamin to start acting again when the first gifted people become mages and come to the fore.

Benjamin thought about such a dangerous and vacant period of time, and finally decided to use it to find the mages who had taken refuge in the mountains.

There are still many places to live in seclusion in the territory of Caritus, the steppes on the border, the swamps in the south, and the mountains in the northwest...... He had already been to the prairie, he had not met any mages, and the swamp was not convenient to live in. In the end, Benjamin chose the mountain range called Candela.

It feels like the Candela Mountains are somewhat similar to the western mountains of the Hori Kingdom, the terrain is complex, the monsters are numerous, it is a well-known dangerous mountain area in the country, and there are even rumors of cannibals, but the area is not as large as the Hori Kingdom. However, Benjamin has even solved the large-scale beast tide, how can he be afraid of the danger in the mountains?

No matter how dangerous the monster is, it is still safer than the church.

At the same time, thinking of the Silent Academy hidden in the western mountains, Benjamin felt that the possibility of the mages of Carretus hiding in the Candela Mountains was still very high.

If you can convince them to join you, Benjamin's team will grow rapidly, maybe...... can also have the ability to confront the church head-on, and no longer have to hide his head and tail like now.

In this way, Benjamin led a team of hundreds of people from the mouth of a valley and walked majestically into the mountains.

"Teacher, this is something we have collected from all over the country, I have sorted it out, you can take a look. ”

On the way, Wallis uses his magic to hold a large box and suddenly comes to Benjamin's side. As he spoke, he handed out a small notebook with a detailed list of everything.

Benjamin couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

Where's the catch?

He looked at the notebook, and most of them were donated gold coins and treasures...... It seems that while they spread magical knowledge to the people, they have also won the love of the people. Some people have given their cause some money after receiving the Free Magic Proclamation for free.

In addition to that, there are some miscellaneous things. To Benjamin's surprise, there were still two elemental crystals in it, which were donated to them as some ore material.

And...... A magic crystal ball.

"Let me see the crystal ball. ”

Seeing this, Benjamin's heart moved and he said.

Wallis wasn't surprised, presumably expecting Benjamin to notice this. So, he opened the big box and took out the crystal ball that had been placed there.

It was a crystal ball the size of a human head, round in shape, the sphere shimmered deep in the sunlight, I don't know what material it was made of, it was so heavy that Benjamin couldn't hold it with one hand.

Of course, the most important thing was the faint magic fluctuations he felt from inside the crystal ball.

It's a magic item!

"It's something that a family gave us when we were singing in a small town to the south," Wallis explains. The other party didn't know what it was, only that it was left to them by their great-grandfather, and it had something to do with magic. ”

...... Ancestral crystal balls?

Benjamin took it and studied it again. Its production method is obviously different from that of contemporary magic props, and it should be similar to the illusion mirror, which belongs to the same product of the previous era.

Speaking of which, Benjamin now has a lot of strange treasures in his hands. The last time he killed the Bishop, he also got the cup that they had called a "holy relic". It's just that he studied the cup for a long time, but he couldn't find a way to activate it, even if he deliberately found a few mages with light element affinity, he couldn't use it to summon a beam of light wall or something like a bishop.

Therefore, such a thing that seems to be very powerful can only be put in Benjamin's bag to accumulate dust.

After thinking about it for a long time, in the end, Benjamin's eyes returned to the crystal ball.

What does it do?

Following the most common method of activation, Benjamin pooled his mental power into it.

Airplanes!

The crystal ball in his hand suddenly vibrated and made a strange buzzing sound, and a white light lit up inside. Then, the crystal ball, which was originally extremely heavy, became like a light fluttering feather in an instant, and it didn't feel half of its weight.

Benjamin was amazed, but also a little confused.

Crystal ball...... Shouldn't it support psychic power or enhance spellcasting?, but after Benjamin activated it, he didn't feel any feedback on his psychic power.

Is it just lighter?

The crystal ball in my hand is weightless, but it is as hard as a stone, which is actually quite weird. Under this feeling, Benjamin's hands suddenly itched, as if learning to spin a basketball, he put this incomparably light crystal ball on his fingertips and turned it gently.

Suddenly, the crystal ball was a little uncontrollable, and it was thrown out of his hand directly, and flew straight towards the bushes in front of him!

Immediately after, there was a loud bang.

The mountains shook for a while, and everyone was startled, stopped, stabilized their bodies, and almost fell into a rut. The other mages came back to their senses and stared blankly at Benjamin, wondering what had happened to him.

But Benjamin himself was confused.

I saw that the dense bushes in front of me were directly smashed into a huge pit by the crystal ball. The crater was almost ten meters in size, and the ground was cobwebbed, and the cracks even spread to the soles of their feet, and if they didn't pay attention, they might even step into it.

And in the center of the crater, the crystal ball fell there intact, no longer vibrating, and the white light inside also dimmed.

Benjamin was stunned for a moment, then suddenly summoned water vapor, lifted the crystal ball from the pit, and withdrew it from his hand.

After thinking about it, he once again gathered his spiritual power into it.

There was a buzz.

Looking at the crystal ball in his hand that lit up again, Benjamin was a little dumbfounded.

He finally knew what it was for.

This isn't the kind of magic ball that supports casting. This crystal ball, it's used to smash people.
