Chapter 625: The Dark Valley
At that moment, Benjamin's mood was quite nervous.
The magic fluctuations emitted by the bracelet are equivalent to exposing their existence, and the people of the church will rush over immediately! Of course, he is not afraid of those people guarding outside, if he rushes in, he can solve it with one finger, but ...... Don't forget, this is the home of the church.
- Crush a bee to death, I'm afraid the whole honeycomb will come at him.
What to do?
A lot of thought crossed Benjamin's mind. He didn't want to confront the whole church here, and God forsaken the valley...... Although it feels like a very powerful existence, who knows? The legend of many years ago may have long since disappeared.
Because of this, he immediately had a retreat in his heart. If the church doesn't react now, they should be able to get out of the way.
However......
"The entrance to the Valley of God's Forsaken...... That's it!"
Miles, however, didn't seem to have thought of such a way out at all. His eyes looked at the ground in front of him, as if a terminally ill patient had seen a panacea, and his whole body was stunned.
Benjamin followed his gaze and looked ahead.
I saw that ahead, on the ground not far away, a dazzling circle of light appeared at this moment. The bracelet in Benjamin's hand flashed with the aperture, and the two complemented each other, as if some kind of connected existence.
It's ...... Entrance?
Benjamin was a little confused. He thought that the Valley of God's Forsaken would be buried under the prison ruins or something, but now that circle of light seemed to be a door.
Together...... I don't know where the door leads.
Previously, when he entered the underground ruins filled with green light, he also seemed to have traveled through space to another world to some extent. The aperture in front of you can't be the same as that ruin, right?
The Valley of God's Forsaken is not in this world, but in another dimension?
"What's that? Is there an entrance? Report to the Bishop. Not far behind him, the paladin's voice was faintly heard. And they're getting closer.
Troublesome......
Benjamin was hesitant, but Miles was excited. Suddenly, he turned his head, grabbed Benjamin's arm, pulled him and rushed towards the aperture.
"Hey, that ......"
Benjamin was halfway through his sentence when he disappeared into the aperture with Miles.
And behind them, several paladins also hurried over at this time, staring at them that had engulfed the two of them, looking at each other, not knowing what was happening.
"Who was that guy just now? Did someone get in?"
Realizing their possible dereliction of duty, several paladins looked rather ugly. They stood on the edge of the aperture, and they couldn't walk, they couldn't say no, and they were very embarrassed.
Soon, the captain of the cleaners arrived. He glanced at the glowing circle of light on the ground, and his face was shocked.
"God...... This must be the entrance to the Valley of God's Forsaken!" He was stunned for a moment before he came back to his senses, pointed to the paladins and said, "You guys, go in first and explore the way." We'll go and tell the Bishop at once. β
When several paladins heard this, they looked at each other with some reluctance.
"That...... Captain, there was a ...... here just now" They just wanted to report the scene they saw to the captain, however, the captain seemed to be a little too excited at the moment, and waved his hand, not giving them a chance to speak at all.
"The sudden appearance of the entrance to the Valley of God's Forsaken is divine will, and none of us has the right to disobey it. He directly pushed the paladins and pushed them towards the aperture, "You should be honored to be the first paladins to explore." β
"But ......"
"What? Are you scared?"
"No, how could the messenger of God be afraid......"
In this way, those paladins did not have the opportunity to report at all. Eventually, they looked at each other, took a deep breath, and walked towards the aperture.
The moment he stepped into the aperture, the paladin only felt a flash of white light in front of him, and the sky was spinning. And when they came back to their senses, the prison ruins and the aperture were all gone, and there was another world in front of them.
"Here...... Is it the Valley of God's Forsaken?"
Mentally prepared, they raised their heads and looked around.
It's a gray world. The sky was shrouded in layers of dark clouds, and the faint light came through, like daytime, but it was impossible to confirm. The gloomy climate seemed to carry some kind of coercion, and it weighed heavily on the hearts of these paladins, making them feel like they were breathless.
On either side of them, there are steep mountain walls, dark gray rocks with no vegetation, and from beginning to end exude a chilling and murderous atmosphere.
In the midst of it, the paladins invariably drew their broadswords at their waists, raised their shields, and swallowed saliva to ease their tension a little.
β...... What about the two people who just came in?"
After looking around and finding that there was no figure in half, a paladin couldn't help but ask.
"It's okay, we just need to find those two guys as soon as possible. The other paladin seemed to be quite happy, "If we get rid of them silently, we won't know that we are derelict in our duties." β
When the other people heard this, they immediately showed a sudden expression.
"No wonder you hesitated just now and didn't want to report the news to the captain. β
"Report to the captain, how can we keep our position now?" the paladin shook his head vigorously and said, "Remember, if you don't want to be transferred to guard the city gates, you should keep this matter completely secret, no one knows about it except us and the supreme god." β
The paladins nodded.
Just as they were about to make their way along the valley, a voice suddenly came from above their heads.
"I'm sorry, I think I heard your secret conversation. Benjamin suddenly flew out of the mountain wall on the left, floated above their heads, and said with an innocent expression, "Don't blame me, I didn't mean to. β
The paladins were stunned.
"You...... You are ......"
"Master Benjamin, the one who opened the Academy of Magic. Benjamin smiled and said slowly, "The church has trained you, you should know me." β
And looking at the horrified looks of the paladins, yes, they recognized Benjamin.
"How could it be...... You...... Did you open the entrance?"
Benjamin nodded.
"Alright, don't waste time on them, the Valley of God's Forsaken is huge, and we need a lot of time to explore. Miles suddenly stepped out from behind a rock and said with a serious face, "Hurry up and get rid of it, maybe more people will come in later." β
Hearing this, Benjamin shrugged his shoulders and showed a regretful expression.
"It's a pity that it's been a long time since I've played with a paladin......"
As he spoke, he tapped his fingertips, and several runes were drawn by him, flashing in midair. With violent elemental fluctuations, the paladin was drowned in a raging storm of water magic in the blink of an eye.
ββIt took about ten seconds for the group of paladins who had strayed into it to completely disappear into this dark valley.
With all that done, Benjamin turned his head and looked at Miles again.
"You don't have to be in a hurry, Godforsaken Valley, I have a map here. He said suddenly.
