Chapter 373: The First Goal

It was a middle-aged man in his thirties, with the usual hypocritical smiling face of a priest, mediocre spirits, and a cross on his body...... After observation, there were three life-saving crosses in total. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Benjamin hid by the vegetable stall and nodded thoughtfully.

The average coolie priest has only one cross, and the foreman priest has three. The church is really a hierarchical place, and each class is so clearly divided that if you want to climb up, you can only rely on your own talent and strength.

Benjamin couldn't help but sigh either.

To be able to cultivate so many at the same time and hierarchical spellcasters, there should be a very mature talent training system within the church. It's just that in the Kingdom of Hori, the church is completely secret from the outside world, so Benjamin doesn't know exactly how they did it.

Look at yourself again, although there are some people under him, but when they are cultivated, they all depend on fate, and they can't even be called immature, let alone mature.

In the future, if he has the conditions, he will have to work more hard in this area......

With this in mind, Benjamin locked onto the priest and followed him from a distance. The priest seemed to be preaching to the vendors, and in the noisy vegetable market, his incessant talk contrasted sharply with the vendors' bewildered expressions.

"It's not...... You've said so much, can you buy my fish?"

The priest shook his head: "I don't buy it." ”

Suddenly, the vendor was so angry that he couldn't do it: "You...... Why don't you buy it here? Waste time, other guests won't come. Don't mess with me, go somewhere else and talk nonsense with you!"

Seeing this, Benjamin also shook his head in his heart.

No wonder he can only be in charge of such a small town, and he has no chance of squeezing into a big city.

In this way, the priest stayed here for fifteen minutes, but was finally forcibly driven away by the vendors. Benjamin had been secretly observing, and when he saw this scene, he also followed behind and quietly left.

It was probably the frustration of the vendors that made him lose his missionary motivation for a while. After leaving the market, the priest walked straight ahead, regardless of the people he might preach.

Five minutes later, he was in a three-story hut.

Benjamin followed here, first swept aside with the water elemental sensing method, and then nodded secretly.

This is supposed to be their abode.

Unlike the priest leaders in Riley City, the priests here all live together. Therefore, Benjamin is in some trouble. At this moment, in the hut, in addition to the leader, there were three priests. The three priests lived in the same room, and the chief priest dragged his tired steps up the stairs to the other.

After thinking for a moment, Benjamin suddenly came out of the darkness and walked directly to the door of the hut.

He knocked on the door.

Soon, a priest came down, opened the door, and looked at Benjamin in confusion.

"Who are you?"

Benjamin looked a little cringe, stammered, and said, "That'...... Is the priest who came back here?"

The priest frowned, but the professional training brought him back to his senses, put away his guarded expression mixed with impatience, and smiled kindly.

"God's will is myriad, and we are so busy with it every day that we sometimes can't pay attention to every believer's response, and I ask your forgiveness. ”

Translated into human words, it probably is: "He's here, but he doesn't have time to pay attention to you." ”

So, Benjamin showed a disappointed expression and hesitated to speak: "But...... But just now, when I heard what the priest said, I felt completely renewed. I...... I have a lot of questions for the priest!"

Hearing this, the priest who opened the door had a bright eye.

"Oh, did you feel God's call and decided to throw yourself into God's arms?" he suddenly took Benjamin's hand and said, "What questions do you have? Just say it, and I'll answer them for you." ”

Benjamin showed a wary face and kept shaking his head: "No...... You're not the priest you just had. Only the priest just now could make me feel the brilliance of God. Who are you? I don't want to ask you. ”

At that moment, the smile on the priest's face froze.

However, he held back, squeezed out a smile, and said, "Okay, the priest just now is in the room, I'll take you there now." ”

Benjamin nodded a little confusedly.

And with that, he made his way into the hut.

He followed the priest up to the second floor and came to the door of the chief priest's room. After knocking on the door, the two priests whispered and explained the situation. Then, the chief priest smiled at Benjamin with a sense of achievement.

"What's your problem? Come on, come in and talk about it. ”

Benjamin looked flattered and said, "Thank you, Father Priest!

Seeing this, the priest who opened the door nodded, made a gesture of prayer, and went back to his room. Benjamin, on the other hand, spoke incoherently as he walked into the chief priest's room.

He closed the door of his room without a trace.

"What are your questions? We are God's servants and were born to answer your questions. The chief priest folded his hands and said reverently.

Benjamin turned around, suddenly retracting the tension on his face and revealing a smile.

At this moment, his speech speed also slowed down suddenly, becoming smooth and fluent, tearing off the coat of surprise and incoherence just now:

"My question is, do you really believe in the existence of God?"

The priest was stunned.

His reaction was a little slow, but the cross on his body reacted more quickly than he did.

I saw that a huge water balloon suddenly appeared in the room and enveloped the priest in it at once. The priest was caught off guard, and if it weren't for the shattering of the life-saving cross, which opened a shield to keep the water out, he would have been submerged in it at this moment.

"You...... You're a mage?"

Trapped in a water balloon, the priest's eyes widened in disbelief and he said. However, from Benjamin's point of view, the priest only had an exaggerated mouth, and no sound could be heard.

Obviously, there were other people in the room, so how could he let the sound out?

In order to avoid being detected by others, Benjamin did not hesitate, and while wrapping the priest inside, the inside of the water balloon began to spin rapidly. His control has increased much more than before, and now, he can even condense a blade-like stream of water inside the water balloon and hit the shield with even more powerful impact.

- He doesn't have that much time, and he has to do it quickly.

And so, in just a few seconds, before the priest could react, the three life-saving crosses on his body shattered. And he himself was directly exposed to the raging currents.

However, Benjamin did not intend to end the other party in this way.

After grinding the cross with the dungeon of the water vortex, he summoned an ice blade that dispersed the water ball. The chief priest was first submerged by the current, and under the six gods without a master, he was suddenly exposed to the air again, and his panicked face couldn't help but instinctively show a trace of hope.

However, as soon as he left the water balloon, he was slashed through his throat by a lightning blade of ice!

Thump!

The priest landed in mid-air, blood gushing out like a fountain.

Benjamin looked at the priest with no sadness or joy on his face. Around him, circles of water vapor formed a gas hood, which had long covered the entire room, and the sound in the room could not be transmitted at all.

When the blood didn't spurt so badly, Benjamin walked over.

"Your God has not come to save you. ”

He looked at the priest, who was bleeding from his neck and his whole body was still twitching, and said softly.

The priest didn't react, only convulsed, bled and murmured with a pained expression, and he didn't know if he heard it or not.

Seeing this, Benjamin shook his head, and suddenly picked up the ice blade on the ground that had cut the opponent's throat.

After thinking about it, he leaned down. To the left of where the priest had fallen, he pinched the blade of ice and carved it with great force, carving a palm-sized triangle into the wooden floor.

-- A regular triangle that looks neat, but has only a notch in one corner, like a triangle.

After doing all this, he glanced at the priest again.

The priest's blood had almost flowed, and now it was only oozing out of the wound little by little, his pupils were stagnant, and even the murmurs of pain had disappeared.

Seeing this, Benjamin nodded.

The first mission objective has been accomplished.

He revoked his magic, turned around, opened the door, and walked out of the room. He closed the door and went down the stairs, where he met the priest who had opened the door for him. With an excited and excited expression, he casually chatted with the priest, then waved goodbye and slowly left the hut with the blessing of the other's prayers.
