Chapter 290: Strange Disease

Benjamin came out the window, looked at the crow that had flown away, and frowned. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

This is the signal given to him by the "crow", which means that there is something important to discuss with him, let him rush over as soon as possible. However, Benjamin was still a little surprised, why did Jessica suddenly ask him over at this point in time?

In the morning, the letter he wrote was delivered to the other party, could it be that there was a problem with the preparation of the plan?

In that letter, Benjamin wrote two things. One is to secretly spread the scandal of the Vinci mage, and the other is to have them falsify an incident to smear the "Keahulaan" sect even more so that Fredon officials can take a hard step to clean up the sect.

Benjamin's event was as follows: first use the parchment to lure out a few people from the sect, kill them, and then set fire to the original stronghold of the "eagles", use their corpses, and blame the sect for arson, making it look like they are suicidal and revenge.

A very simple and crude plan may also arouse suspicion among some people, but it doesn't matter. That sect already has a ghost in its heart, and what Benjamin needs is just to alarm more eyes and make the official feel that the sect is more suspicious, and that's enough.

After staring at it for a long time, they themselves will definitely show their flaws.

But correspondingly, the plan requires a lot of preparation - both on Benjamin's side and on the Crow's side. It will be at least a few days before it really gets started.

That's why Benjamin found it strange. If there is really something to be done, it shouldn't be today, right?

With doubts in his heart, he went out at night, and without anyone noticing, quietly left here and rushed to the stronghold of the "crow".

However, he didn't see Jessica.

"Master, do you remember me? My name is Berner, and I'm the boss's henchman. In the dimly lit room, a thin, familiar man said cautiously to Benjamin.

Benjamin nodded.

"I remember you, you got me, where's your boss?"

Hearing this, Berner suddenly sighed and said, "Our boss is her...... No, we don't know what's going on, so why don't you come over and take a look at what just happened today. ”

Benjamin felt confused, but nodded in agreement: "You lead the way." ”

"Thank you, Master Mage. Suddenly, Bernard was relieved and bowed gratefully.

He turned around, took Benjamin, and through a few narrow corridors, came to another small room. There was a lamp in the hidden room, and there was a bed, and Jessica, the boss of the "crow", was also lying on the bed at the moment, her face was blue and unconscious.

Suddenly, Benjamin's brow furrowed.

This is...... Something went wrong?

"What happened?" he asked immediately.

But Bernard shook his head and said, "Nothing happened." This afternoon, the Boss fainted without knowing what was going on. And not only the boss, but also several brothers in the gang have also fallen one after another today, and the doctors don't know what's going on. ”

Hearing this, Benjamin also showed a puzzled expression.

What's the situation?

Looking at it like this, it's a bit like a contagion like a plague. But if it's really an infectious disease, even if the doctor can't cure it, he should be able to recognize that it's an illness, not a strange condition like poisoning.

It's kind of weird......

"Are there any signs? What new enemies have 'crows' provoked lately?, or did the fainted person eat the same kind of food before he fainted?" he asked.

What are you kidding? He only took a stake in the "crow" for so many years, and the principal was not returned. If Jessica had fallen ill like this, and there was no one to lead this gang, then he wouldn't have lost his pants.

He's got to get people back.

"No, the Boss and the other fainted people ate something completely different. Recently, we have been very careful with our expansion, and we have been hiding behind us, so no one should attack us. Bernard thought for a moment, and suddenly said, "But...... If you want to find a common denominator, the thing that the Boss and the others have touched is the scroll from the Eagle. ”

"Scroll?" Benjamin said, startled, as he pulled out his thing, "You mean, this parchment roll." ”

Bernard nodded and said, "One of the brothers who fainted has been out of our gang lately. And the only thing he'd done before was to be in charge of transporting it. Otherwise, I wouldn't have thought of that. ”

Suddenly, Benjamin looked at the parchment roll in his hand and suddenly felt a chill, as if he was holding a test tube full of viruses.

He'd touched it too, so he's going to faint soon?

But he didn't feel anything unusual in his body.

After thinking about it, he turned on the water elemental sensing and tried to detect what was wrong with Jessica. However, under this investigation, he was a little stunned to find that there seemed to be something disgusting about Jessica, and the water elemental around her was a little restless, flying around, and didn't even want to get close to her.

This......

If you are sick or poisoned, you don't have this symptom, do you?

After a few more thoughts, Benjamin lowered his head and began to examine the parchment roll in his hand. After careful observation from the perspective of the water element, he found that the parchment did not seem to be very pleasing to the elements. Although not as obvious as around Jessica, the water elemental does have a tendency to hide outward.

That's a lot to say.

Could it really be this parchment roll that is to blame?

However, when he looked back at himself, the water elements around him were all fine, and he was very close to him, so naturally he didn't have the intention of avoiding it.

Benjamin felt even more confused.

Why?

He also understood that the parchment in his hand was not simple, it could not only open the passage to the other world, but also turn into a map of the otherworldly city, which must contain some supernatural power other than magic.

And now, the person who touches it will faint, be rejected by the elements, as if they have made a feud, which makes it even more weird.

Eh......

Wait a minute.

Ever had a vendetta against the elements?

At that moment, a flash of inspiration flashed through his mind, and he remembered the mural he had seen in the ruinsβ€”the battle between magic and green energy in another world.

If parchment paper also contains a lot of that kind of energy, and the energy will leak out, and after contact with people, it will invade the human body, and eventually lead to a series of symptoms under the eye, it is not unreasonable.

As for why Benjamin didn't feel it...... Maybe because he's a mage and already has elemental powers, he's not afraid of that kind of green-haired thing, and it's okay to just hold the parchment in his hand.

In this way, the more Benjamin thought about it, the more he felt that it was very likely.

"Master, are you alright? Why don't you let go of the scroll first, what if you faint like them?" Berner stood aside, and when Benjamin looked down in thought, he couldn't help but become a little flustered.

"I'm fine. Benjamin came to his senses, put away the scroll, and shook his head.

"Boss, they...... Have you figured out a way?"

Benjamin narrowed his eyes and said, "I haven't dealt with this kind of thing much, but...... I can give it a try. ”

Since this energy is the enemy of magic, then, by turning the angle and using the power of magic, can he force out the green energy attached to the person's body?

It's just a little leak from the parchment, and it shouldn't be much stronger.

With that in mind, Benjamin began to try.

The spell blurted out, the water elemental gathered, and he first summoned a healing water ball.

No matter how much the water elemental disliked Jessica who was possessed, Benjamin still controlled the water balls they formed, aimed at Jessica, and poured it directly.
