Chapter 230: The Coachman in Disguise
In this way, after dealing with the traces of the battle at the scene, Benjamin and his party quickly left here in a carriage. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The battle just now still caused a lot of movement. Fortunately, the location here is far away from Regina, and the surrounding patrols are not dense. Otherwise, it is estimated that other soldiers will be lured over.
And now, all the eyewitnesses have been settled, and it is impossible for Hawke to snitch himself. Therefore, there is nothing to worry about. In the end of the whole incident, it was probably a bunch of inspectors who disappeared for no reason, and the Mage Guild vigorously pursued it under the "shock", but in the end, it still whitewashed all kinds of excuses and couldn't do it.
As for Hawke, after giving Benjamin another ride, he waved goodbye and turned around and left. Only Benjamin and his party were left, riding in a carriage, all the way forward.
On the way, Benjamin also re-planned the route with the system. Because of the carriage, they can travel much faster, and they can meditate while traveling, which is very convenient. Therefore, Benjamin decided to travel by horse-drawn carriage until he reached the vicinity of the Fit River, and then let the coachmen leave.
When the time comes, they will use their magic to fly across the river, and they will be close to Freden.
However, about the credibility of these coachmen......
Thinking of this, the corners of Benjamin's mouth suddenly hooked up with a sneer.
Soon, when it was the evening of the first day of leaving Regina, the group stopped on their way. They parked the carriage at the edge of a wood, got out of the carriage to breathe, rested for a while, and prepared to begin their supper.
"That you...... What's your name, come here, I have something to ask you. Suddenly, Benjamin tapped a coachman on the shoulder and whispered to him.
The coachman was stunned for a moment, but when he saw that it was Benjamin, he didn't dare to object. So, he put down the bread in his hand, and with a puzzled face, followed Benjamin to a few trees not far away.
Making sure that no one else noticed this, Benjamin turned around, the smile on his face disappeared, looked at the coachman coldly, and said, "Why are you here again?"
The coachman showed an expression of confusion and said, "Master Master, isn't it your request......?" I'm driving you here. ”
Benjamin shook his head and said, "Okay, don't pretend." You've been in charge once, do you think I'm going to do it a second time? Miles, isn't it? Dressed up as a coachman, what the hell do you want?"
He is not short of eyes, and if he wants to let four coachmen accompany him, he will definitely observe them carefully. And after turning on the perception of the water element, he soon discovered that the coachman who spoke most "sincerely" at that time was the young man who was disguised as before.
What a ghostly guy.
Benjamin was also quite helpless about this. Because he was jealous, he couldn't tear his face directly in front of other mages. So in the end, he had to find such an opportunity to have a direct showdown to see what this guy wanted to do.
Because of Cinderney's curse, at least, Miles wouldn't do anything to him. But if this guy really gets in the way of his next trip, then Benjamin can only find a way to get rid of him.
"How did you recognize me?" asked Miles, finally, no longer acting, and looked into the coachman's face, with some disbelief.
"Because your disguise technique is so bad. "Benjamin, of course, won't tell the truth.
“......”
Probably because his professional abilities were questioned, Miles choked on his breath and didn't speak.
"Why the hell are you following us?" asked Benjamin, asking.
"For the task. Miles' answer was the same, "Besides, Cinderney still has your curse on her." You just left Regina, what if she gets cursed one day?"
Benjamin shook his head and said, "As long as I'm alive, the curse won't get out of hand." I don't want it to flare up, it won't flare up. ”
Miles frowned, "Why do I think your claim about the curse seems like a fabrication?"
Benjamin looked indifferent: "Okay, you can try to kill me, and see if the woman will die of a curse attack in the end." ”
“......”
Miles was speechless again.
At this point, Benjamin also began to get a little impatient. Continuing to talk, it doesn't seem to be really good for him except to choke on the other party.
So, he finally spoke, "What is your purpose, and if so, who posted the task, and what is the content of the task?"
"I can't tell you that it's against professional ethics. Miles spread his hands and said, "But don't worry, I won't do anything to you." In a few days, my mission will be over, and you will be assured that you will never see me again. ”
"You're not going to be bad for us?" Benjamin stared at the other's disguised face, trying to find a flaw in his expression.
"No, it won't. If I really wanted to do something, with so many opportunities, I would have done it a long time ago, so why wait until now?" replied Miles.
"What about the other three coachmen?" asked Benjamin again.
"I don't know, it's just a simple coachman. Miles said helplessly, "I'm not really a coachman, I don't know them well." ”
Benjamin was silent for a moment, shook his head, and finally didn't bother to ask any more, turned around, and walked away without saying a word.
This guy is too troublesome, he can't kill him, and it's impossible to get rid of him, so let him continue to play his play. At least under his nose, Benjamin can keep watching. If Miles makes a small move, he will also have a warning, which is better than that state of being in the dark.
Besides, along the way, he can continue to look for opportunities to see if he can solve this trouble once and for all.
"Hey, you're done with your question?" Miles shouted from behind him.
Benjamin turned his head, glanced at the other party, and said, "It's dinner time, let's go on the road, coachman." ”
Don't you want to be a coachman?
“...... I haven't eaten a single bite. Miles grumbled.
"Do you blame me for your own slow movements?" said Benjamin, shrugging his shoulders and making a seemingly powerless expression.
“......”
And just like that, the short time for dinner ended. In the afterglow of the setting sun, Benjamin and his party returned to the carriage. And the four coachmen in the car, whether they were full or hungry, could only continue to rush southeast under the command of Benjamin, waving their horsewhips and carrying more than twenty mages.
