Seeing that the necklace was about to be blown out of the window by the wind, Benjamin hurriedly walked over and picked up the necklace. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

He closed the window, took the necklace, and examined it carefully.

"Hey, let's make sure, is this the necklace that the old lady usually wears that can open the treasure house?" and after two more glances, Benjamin said to the system in his heart.

"Hmm...... Let me see. The system suddenly took out the appearance of a treasure expert, was silent for a long time, and then said, "Yes, that necklace is right, it's true." ”

Hearing this, Benjamin furrowed his eyebrows deeply.

What the hell is going on?

Could it be that the bugs in this world are already all over the place? Michelle first put one on him, and now the old lady put another one on him? Otherwise, what is the basis for their actions?

Benjamin didn't believe that the old lady had accidentally dropped the necklace here.

What did she know?

As soon as she asked Grant how to open the treasure house, the old lady left the key here. There is no doubt that the old lady knew that Benjamin had intentions for the treasury, so she made such a move.

In fact, the old lady did not do Benjamin any harm in doing this, and it could even be said to be good - he didn't have to worry about whether to help Michelle get the necklace anymore.

But why did the old lady help Benjamin?

Moreover, the crux of the whole matter is how much she really knows.

Did she know that Benjamin had been kidnapped because of the treasury? Did she know that Benjamin was still threatened for a long time? Did she know that Michelle existed?

Even...... Does she know that Benjamin is a mage?

Thinking of this, he felt a little furious in his heart, and couldn't help but glance back at the corridor outside the door. There was no one outside the door, and the old lady was long gone, and there was not even a shadow to be seen.

Benjamin felt that in the dark, there was another pair of eyes staring at him.

He walked over, closed the door, locked it, and the oozing feeling slowly faded.

After doing all this, he walked back to the bed, sat down on the bed, looked at the necklace in his hand, and continued his struggle.

Should I give the necklace to Michelle?

If Benjamin had been asked to answer the question before the old lady came, Benjamin would of course give the necklace to Michelle. But now, after this happened, Benjamin began to be a little undecided.

There's definitely something greasy in this.

Did the old lady test him by leaving the necklace to him?

Or, the old lady found out that someone was coveting the treasury of the Risser's house, so she deliberately left the necklace and reported it to the church, so that the church people could wait there.

Think of it this way......

Benjamin once again smelled the smell of conspiracy.

Perhaps, the church is behind this. It was they who instructed the old lady to do this, to leave the necklace to Benjamin, and then to Benjamin to give the necklace to Michelle. In this way, they can catch a big fish like Michelle.

Really.

Thinking about it, Benjamin felt that there was a good chance that this was a trap.

And taking a step back, apart from the church playing ghosts behind his back, he couldn't think of any other reason for the old lady to do this.

Church...... It's the church again.

Benjamin sighed.

It seems that the church's harvest at the Folk House Theater has not been able to satisfy them. They were also in a hurry, and even used this method in order to find Michelle out.

They used the Fur family to eradicate the mage forces within the royal capital, attacked the Silent Academy, and cut off the possibility of the Fur family colluding with the mages. Now, they want to use the Reeser family to get rid of Michelle's big problem.

It is worthy of the church, and it is a good hand of power. To be able to trample the royal family and the nobility under their feet for so many years, the church does have its doorway.

In this way, the church was confident, and Benjamin was in a dilemma.

What to do?

If he gives the necklace to Michelle and Michelle goes to open the treasury, she will be killed by the church, and if he doesn't give the necklace to Michelle and tell her that it is a trap and that the church can't ambush anyone, he will start to suspect Benjamin's intentions.

Same situation as the first time I received Michelle's letter.

Damn it......

Can't these people let him live in peace for a while?

He really didn't want to get involved in this kind of fight!

"People are in the rivers and lakes, and they can't help themselves. Don't you understand that?" the system said out of nowhere, in a deep tone.

"You're on the wrong set, I've crossed into a fantasy world, not a martial arts world. Although Benjamin felt that the system's words were quite in line with his current situation, he couldn't help but complain.

There is a true meaning in this, and I have forgotten to distinguish it. Don't cling to a few words and miss the truth. However, the system is like an old monk, babbling inexplicable things

“......”

Did the system take the wrong medicine again today?

Benjamin thought for a moment and shook his head again.

No, that's always been the case. Blame him, it was he who had undue expectations, and even for a second, he thought that the system would become normal.

However, being so troubled by the system made him feel a lot more relaxed.

After thinking about it for a long time, in the end, he decided to put this matter aside for now.

According to his guess, it shouldn't be long before someone from the church would come to him and ask him to give the necklace to Michelle.

Until then, Benjamin should play dumb. If he had the chance, he could also pretend to be a good boy who was good at collecting money and return the necklace to the old lady. In short, he must be able to drag it out for as long as he can.

The longer it drags on, the stronger he will become, and the more he will be able to find his way to survive in the cracks.

In the final analysis, whether he can improve his situation depends on his strength.

Benjamin even felt that Michelle would take the initiative to lift the curse for him, partly because Benjamin's strength was growing too fast, and Michelle was afraid that he would not be able to control him. Therefore, she simply sold her favor to Benjamin, and she also appeared to be generous.

Thinking of this, Benjamin has no reason to hesitate.

He took the necklace into the cupboard, then lay down on the bed, closed his eyes, and pretended to be asleep, but his mind had already entered the space of consciousness and began to meditate again.

In this situation, he longed to practice in the world of magic, but he still didn't do it.

At about twelve o'clock in meditation, he stopped strengthening the triangle characters, withdrew from the space of consciousness, and returned to reality.

It's time to sleep.

No way, although the process of meditation is not boring, it will also consume the mind. He also regretted that situations like in some novels where cultivation can replace sleep would not happen to him.

Even if the sky falls, sleep is still going to sleep.

In this way, Benjamin washed up, lay back on the bed, covered himself with the quilt, and fell asleep peacefully.

Nothing was said all night.

The next morning, as usual, he was escorted to the barracks by the maid sent by Claude to continue his military training.

Military training is still the same, running, firing toy guns, and playing "military physical boxing". However, because of the church's notice, the people in the gun camp also knew about Benjamin's "kidnapping", and they also ridiculed Benjamin.

Benjamin smiled and passed. After every day of punching and kicking, his relationship with these people is now much better.

Other than that, nothing special happened. These days of training have also made Benjamin's physique slowly improve, his trouser legs are shortened, and he feels that he has grown taller.

After a series of trainings, Benjamin returned home and had lunch together.

After lunch, he also deliberately found time to greet the old lady and prepare to return the necklace to the old lady.

However, the old lady gave this response:

"I'm tired of wearing that necklace, so I'll give it to you. Even if the younger generation is no longer sensible, the elder has to show a little concern for the younger generation, right? ”

After saying this, the old lady resorted to the Dafa of Afternoon Escape and blocked Benjamin.

“......”

Benjamin stood outside the door, looking at the necklace in his hand, speechless.

So, he resigned himself to his fate, and went back to his room in disgrace, meditating while waiting for the church, or Michelle, to appear.

Since this bureau has been set up, they will definitely find it.

For him at this moment, seeing the move is the only feasible way for him.

However, to his great surprise, several days passed. In his anxious waiting, neither the church nor Michelle heard from him. It was as if both parties had forgotten about Benjamin.

What the?

What about the Michelles? What about the church people?

Not only that, but after these days of observation, Benjamin found that the church had no longer sent people to protect him. This also surprised Benjamin the most.

You know, for so many days, the church's "gaze" on him has not been broken.

Don't tell him that the people here are also going on New Year's holidays.

What's the situation?

In this way, the days passed peacefully, seeing that the time of the grounding was coming to an end, and the third magic rune was also condensed for the most part, Benjamin did not have the slightest joy, and the whole person was confused.
