Benjamin finally figured it out. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

He's not just Grant's substitute. He is also a pawn in the struggle between the church and the nobility, and between the nobility and the nobility.

The aristocracy was unwilling to be softened and controlled by the church step by step, so they fought back against the church. The church is preying on the descendants of the nobility, so the nobility does not intend to let go of the descendants of the church. Therefore, the way they fought back was to destroy the most important genius of the Church, and the most likely successor of the future Pope.

- Of course, Aix's desire to take revenge on the Rieser family is probably one of the reasons.

In this way, Aix sent the boy to seduce Grant. While the church doesn't care who Grant sleeps with, homosexuality is still doctrinally forbidden. Therefore, if this kind of thing is stabbed, the church will have to cut off its own arm and burn Grant to death.

In this way, it not only dealt a blow to the church, but also divided the Reeser family, who had always been loyal to the church, creating a rift between the two, and weakening the influence of the church in aristocratic circles in disguise. In short, this is indeed a very tricky trick, which can make the nobles breathe a big bad breath.

However, the church seems to have been prepared for this whole thing.

They had found Mary before the incident. Mary had the idea of letting Benjamin die instead of Grant. In this way, the two parties hit it off, and the whole plan of "Tanuki for Prince" was born.

What a ...... Nice plan.

Needless to say, they implemented it very successfully. Aix is deceived by Mary's brilliant performance and mistakes Benjamin for Grant. Perhaps, at this moment, Ax is sitting in his own house, thinking that he has not only ruined the hope of the church, but also taken revenge on the Rieser family, and is looking up to the sky and laughing proudly!

How could Ax have imagined that the Bishop had colluded with Mary long ago before he took the Bishop and the Paladin to arrest him?

Thinking about it this way, Benjamin felt even more ironic.

It's as if the gods in the sky are fighting, and the fighting method is hot. Suddenly, the nobleman aimed at the soft underbelly of the church and threw a hidden arrow, intending to hit the opponent hard with a single blow. But the church was not in a hurry, grabbed a mortal from the ground casually, blocked the front, and with a snap, blocked the blow.

Benjamin was that "mortal".

Ironically, it was just a small back and forth between the church and the aristocracy. After this move, there is the next move, and there are countless moves...... And in this move, Benjamin, who was caught by the church casually to block the knife, will soon be forgotten by others, and no one will remember.

yes, no one will remember......

After he was burned to death, Grant would inherit his identity, bear the name Benjamin, and live quietly and carefully until he grew up to the point where he could stand up. And at that time, everyone will sigh again that "Benjamin" is such a genius. As for the aristocracy, at that time, if they reacted and wanted to beat him as a weakness, there was no such possibility.

What a perfect plan.

Who will remember themselves?

- This nobody, who was burned on the cross in place of the future Pope.

After Benjamin saw through the boy in the next cell, he looked uneasy and stayed in place for a while. But he didn't stay quiet for long, and soon he was yelling again, yelling for someone to get the real Grant.

Obviously, this young man sacrificed himself in exchange for only a substitute for the dead. He certainly wouldn't be reconciled.

But alas, no one paid attention to him. Even if he shouted so loudly that his voice was hoarse, and nine words broke ten times, this deathly silent purification place was still as silent as death.

In fact, every floor and every mouth of the purification center is guarded by many paladins. But don't you need to ask, these paladins won't care about this teenager. They were the people of the church, and the church was supposed to let Benjamin block the knife for Grant.

The teenager, like Benjamin, is just an inconsequential pawn in the struggle between the two sides.

Chessman......

Benjamin suddenly sighed, trying to relieve his anger and unwillingness in this way.

He sat on the cold, hard ground and remembered the night Michelle had asked him to give his letter to the church long ago. At that time, in Michelle's game with the church, he was also a pawn. But at that time, he was already silently thinking in his heart that he wanted to accumulate the capital to turn over and become a chess player.

After all these days, he is still just a pawn.

It's like a multi-threaded role-playing game, where the protagonist makes various decisions and makes moves with their own possibilities to change the direction of the entire story, and finally reaches a certain ending and achieves achievements.

Is that all?

Will his life be a scribbled CG picture titled "A Chess Piece", with a zero-achievement ending that doesn't even exceed fifty words in the accompanying text?

Unwilling.

Even the system is popping up in his mind at this moment, crying out for heaven and earth, crying that it is a waste of its talent to die in such a place without a name.

But...... If you are unwilling, what can you do?

He can't escape this little cage, let alone the stake tomorrow in full view of everyone.

At first, when he was kidnapped by Michelle, he was also shrouded in the shadow of death all the time, but he always saw a glimmer of hope in it. He grasped that glimmer of hope, like following a wisp of wind in a closed cave, and dug a way out.

But now?

He had no hope left.

"Hey, I don't want to be burned to death tomorrow with a little, which will insult my reputation as an artificial intelligence. The system shouted in his head, "Think of a way, I know you must have a way!"

"What can I do. Benjamin clenched his fists, full of unwillingness to vent, "That's right, my spellcasting process is different from that of ordinary mages, and these iron bars can't get in the way of my spell casting. But so what? With magic, can I escape?"

He can mobilize the water element in his consciousness space, and he can cast spells in his mind, first using magic in his consciousness space, and then bringing out the magic. He didn't even need to emit the slightest magic fluctuation to break these iron bars......

Can...... So what?

The guards of the purification were layer upon layer, and when he had killed all the paladins who were guarding, the bishop had also arrived. Trying to sneak out without alerting the guards is tantamount to whimsical.

After listening to Benjamin's words, the noisy system also fell silent, and it seemed that it also accepted this fact and lost the motivation to urge. However, this rare silence sounded so desperate in Benjamin's ears.

Despair......

Is there anything more desperate than waiting for death for a minute and a second?

Yes, it is the countdown to death at the same time, and the mind is full of unwillingness, but I don't know what to do.

Benjamin's fists clenched even tighter.

He thought he was an open-minded person, but now he realized that he was wrong, and he couldn't see it at all. His mind is full of seven emotions and six desires, and countless ideals. He wants to explore the mysteries of the pure blue world, he wants to fly in the real sky once, he wants to go to every corner of the continent, he wants to make a difference, he wants to meet more interesting people and listen to their strange stories......

How wonderful it is to be alive, why does he see it?

It was as if there was a sudden rise of emotion, gripping his heart tightly. The cold and hot sensations alternated in his veins, making his hands and feet suddenly tingle slightly, and he couldn't help but tremble.

He...... Don't want to die.

Because of the trumped-up crime, he was treated as someone else and died in a world that didn't even belong to him...... Who would want to die such a wretched death?

At that moment, he made a decision.

Fuck it.

He closed his eyes and flew into the space of consciousness.

The three magical characters, still glowing blue in the dark, never affected by the distractions of the outside world. They are like the stars in the night sky, only moving according to their own orbits, never paying attention to how the people under the night sky look up and what kind of feelings they place on them.

Benjamin looked around at the three characters, took a deep breath, and clenched his fists tightly.

It was as if a fire had been ignited in his heart.

Angry, unwilling...... Or is it exciting, exciting...... Complex and indescribable emotions boiled in his body, and even the exhaled air seemed to be scorching hot.

Everyone only treats him as a small chess piece, which will be shattered after tomorrow and quickly forgotten, isn't it? In that case, let them see what kind of energy an inconsequential chess piece in their eyes can burst out!

Success or failure. Even if he dies, he will die a glorious and shocking death!

He recited the original incantation.

With the surging of the water element, a huge water ball instantly condensed and formed in front of him.

However, he did not stop and continued to chant the incantation. One, two, three...... Large balls of water, large enough to drown a cow, were summoned one by one, piling up in this endless darkness.

Benjamin didn't mean to stop.

He didn't compress the balls of water and turn them into water bombs, nor did he change their form and let them roll up countless whirlpools. He just condensed them, kept them in the space of consciousness, and then immediately condensed the next one, and the cycle was endless.

Ten, hundred, thousand...... He seems to be a robot, tirelessly summoning water balloons. Even if the mental power has increased by leaps and bounds before, under such crazy consumption, there will soon be an overdraft.

But Benjamin didn't care.

Fuck it, keep it up!

The splitting headache was forcibly endured by him, and the spirit of a little loose trend was also forcibly twisted up by him. It was as if he had entered the state of pure blue space again, and the unimaginable pain tormented his soul, but he turned a deaf ear, guarding an obsession in his heart, desperately summoning new water balls and maintaining them all.

Soon, it wasn't just his mental power that dried up.

The formation of the big water balloon requires the water element, and the water element in the consciousness space is obviously not enough for Benjamin, who has entered the state of madness.

But...... Since he has fallen into this state, how can this kind of problem be a problem for him?

The water element in the consciousness space is consumed? It doesn't matter, and then suck it from the outside! The iron railing of the forbidden demon can only hinder the gathering of the elements, but it cannot prevent the elements from being forcibly sucked into the consciousness space.

In the blink of an eye, the originally damp purification room suddenly became dry, and the teenagers in the next cell stopped shouting at some point, and couldn't help but start coughing, swallowing saliva weakly in their dry throats.

However, this is just the beginning.

The condensation of water balloon is endless, and so is the need for the water element. In the process, Benjamin gradually lost consciousness and fell into a semi-comatose state. However, he was still driven by a strong emotion, and instinctively continued his actions.

Extracting water from the outside world, water balls accumulate in the space of consciousness......

Even Benjamin himself didn't know what he was doing.

Soon, even the paladins guarding the purification center began to feel dry in their mouths, subconsciously licking their skinned lips, and couldn't help but want to drink water.

The green lawn outside the door of the purification center turned wilted and yellowed at some point. The nearby nobles, even if they were just passing by, couldn't help but instruct their attendants to pour themselves water to drink.

As time passed, from afternoon to night, from late night to the early morning of the next day, with the purification center as the center, this strange dryness continued to spread in the royal capital. Without anyone noticing, the thick clouds in the sky looked unusually thin.

And in the depths of the purification.

A certain cell, where Benjamin sat quietly, his eyes closed. He seemed to be an ancient statue, motionless, as if no matter how young he was, he would not change anything.

And in his head.

"I ...... Oh my God, you, what are you going to do?" Even the system had a rare frightened tone, "Wake up, don't read it, what are you doing here...... You're going to kill you for big things!"
