When Benjamin heard this, he also had something to say: "That's right, now that the church has sneaked into Caritus, and the royal family has fallen to them, the situation in the country is very bad. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoI hope you will join us in dealing with the church. ”

Without thinking, Luke replied, "Church, what does this have to do with us?"

"The purpose of the church is to kill all the mages in the world, how can it be okay?"

Luke smiled indifferently and said, "You are too worried, just talking, how can they kill all the mages in the world? After so many years, have the mages of the Hori Kingdom died? No, they can still get by." No matter what decrees he makes, why bother to go against them so much, and we still live the same life?"

“......”

Hearing this, Benjamin sighed in his heart.

This kind of insensitive attitude that doesn't matter to oneself is really a bit tricky......

At this moment, he didn't continue to argue with the other party, but shrugged his shoulders and changed the topic: "Don't mention this...... By the way, you just said that there are elders in your village?"

Luke nodded and said, "Yes, there are three highly respected mages in our village. It was also built under their command, so we call them elders, and they are our leaders. ”

"Shall I meet the elder then?"

Luke agreed, "Of course, I'll go talk to the elders tonight." With the strength of an adult, the elders will surely be glad to see you. ”

In this way, Benjamin and his party, led by Luke, set up camp in a clearing on the edge of the village. Luke, on the other hand, went to their elders and estimated that he would have to wait a while to return.

His mages were busy packing their bags, and Benjamin finally got a chance to think about what to do.

Although there are hundreds of mages living here, the atmosphere here is very quiet. Compared to the residents of the Peach Blossom Garden, the people here are indeed a little too cold. Faced with the appearance of Benjamin and his party, the local mage did not react, and did not take a second look, as if he had long been accustomed to it.

Benjamin felt a tremendous resistance.

The overall atmosphere was like this, and he didn't know if he could really convince the mages here to let them rejoin the world and deal with the church together.

To tell the truth, this group of people is hiding here, the environment is good, the place is hidden, even if the church really rules the world, nine times out of ten they will not find this place, and it will have no impact on their lives. So what about the outside world, and what does it have to do with them?

With this mentality, although this group of mages only started to live in seclusion a few months ago, they still quickly developed this kind of old fritter posture that had been in seclusion for hundreds of years.

How......

"Teacher, this is the vial of the bear's blood, we really don't know what to do with it, so why don't we ask the people here?" said Suddenly, Wallis said, holding a glass vial filled with viscous blood.

Hearing this, Benjamin took the vial of bear blood and nodded.

"Give it to me, I'm just going to walk around the village. ”

So, Wallis went back to tidy up his things, and Benjamin took the bottle and walked into the settlement, intending to use the pretext of bear blood to contact the mages who lived here.

After thinking about it, he came to a room and knocked on the door.

There was a sound of footsteps in the room, and after a few seconds, the door opened a crack, revealing a pair of somewhat wary eyes, staring coldly at Benjamin.

"What's the matter?"

Benjamin raised the bear blood in his hand, shook it in front of the other party's eyes, and said, "I killed a silver giant bear in the mountain a few days ago and took some blood, I don't know what its blood is for." Do you know?"

"The silver bear, is it from the outer mountains, and you killed it?" the other party seemed to recognize the bear, and there was finally a hint of surprise in his indifferent tone.

"That's right, I killed it with my own hands. Because the carcass was so huge, I only took some blood, and the rest of the bear carcass remained on the outer mountain trails. ”

Finally, the mage in the house couldn't sit still, pushed open the door and walked out: "Which mountain road is it?" ”

Benjamin retorted, "You've got to tell me what this thing is for." ”

When the other party heard this, he stared at Benjamin with a somewhat frightening look, and his cheeks were as pale and thin as Luke's, like a vampire, and he looked very difficult to mess with.

After a moment of silence, the mage suddenly spoke, "You...... It must be a mage from outside, right?"

"yes, what's wrong? Didn't you come in from the outside......"

However, as soon as Benjamin was halfway through his words, the other party turned back into the house, closed the door, and completely shut out the rest of Benjamin's words.

Benjamin was stunned.

...... What's wrong?

Coming to his senses, he knocked on the door again. But no matter how hard he knocked, the other party didn't open the door again, but there was a cold "roll", which made Benjamin even more confused.

What's going on?

In desperation, he changed rooms and knocked on the door very politely to ask. But in the end, the mages who came out of the room reacted in the same way as the first person—they didn't say a few words, and then hid in the room, shut up, and looked like they didn't care at all.

Benjamin felt something was wrong.

If the attitude of not asking about the world is understandable, but now, the logic of this moody behavior is really a bit incomprehensible. Everyone is a mage, what do you have to say, who do you want to show your face?

After being turned away many times, Benjamin couldn't help but use the water elemental induction method to peek inside these houses. I saw those mages sitting on the bed, as if nothing had happened, meditating with their eyes closed, ignoring Benjamin outside the door, which made Benjamin a little angry.

These people ...... It's weird, isn't it?

At this point, he had little hope of convincing these mages. It is really impossible to expect these people to deal with the church, and the common people of Caritus are much better communicative than them.

Shaking his head, Benjamin turned and left, returning to the camp they had set up. Most of his excitement had been extinguished, and he was just waiting to meet the elders here and ask what the situation was.

Luke, on the other hand, also showed up an hour later.

"My lord, the three elders are waiting for you, come with me. ”

Benjamin had no objections and followed Luke into the village. Soon, they made their way through the winding streets to the heart of the village, a wooden house that looked the tallest and largest.

The living room of the house has an original and simple style of decoration. Here, Benjamin met with three old mages.

"Fortunately, you're the very powerful mage, aren't you? We've all heard from Luke, and it's amazing how talented you are to reach this level at this age. ”

Unlike the ordinary mages in the settlement, the three elders were extremely friendly, coming up to hold Benjamin's hand and shaking it vigorously, the calluses on his hands rubbing Benjamin's skin enthusiastically.

Benjamin's mood, however, didn't change much from this.

"You be careful, there are quirks in this place. Because, at the moment of entering the door, the system suddenly spoke out and reminded him very seriously in his heart.
