Chapter 122: Curse the City

"You've got what you want, why do you want to go back to the royal capital?"

"I'm so idle that I have nothing to do, I want to go back, and I'm willful. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"

β€œ......”

Benjamin discovers that Michelle has mastered the best way to deal with him.

That's -- nonsense.

Their relationship is eerily sandwiched between their companions and enemies. Although they do not trust each other and are wary of each other, on the surface, they show a cooperative posture. Their attitude towards each other is also okay, he asks Michelle questions, and Michelle answers.

It's just that the way she answered was not quite able to satisfy Benjamin.

Thanks to the crack and a severe headache, Michelle had the upper hand in this "cooperative" relationship. Therefore, she didn't care about Benjamin's thoughts at all, she went her own way, and once Benjamin had a question, she used some nonsense answers to block Benjamin back.

Benjamin didn't have anything to do about it.

Who told him to send someone under the fence?

For his current situation, he also slowly thought clearly. After summoning the water balloon, the relationship between him and the church has completely collapsed, and it is either you die or I live. And given that the Church was so powerful in the royal capital, it was clear that he could not stay too long in the royal capital.

In the past few months of aristocratic life, Benjamin can only say goodbye to them.

He had to leave the royal capital.

However, the water balloon he summoned in the square made things worse. Therefore, in order to arrest him, the church even did such a thing as locking down the city.

Obviously, in his current state, it is basically impossible to break through the blockade and leave the royal capital by his own strength. The repair of the crack was quite slow, conservatively estimated, it would take a month or two, and during this time, he could not use magic, otherwise the crack would have expanded.

A month or two was enough time for the church to pull him out of the dark corners of the royal capital.

Therefore, "cooperating" with Michelle is indeed his only choice.

He also had no room to think about whether Michelle had ulterior motives.

Even if the witch had another conspiracy, so what? Benjamin's current situation is a dead word: either he will be caught and burned by the church, or he will be pitted to death by Michelle like Anne. It didn't make sense for him to think about it, so he was just naΓ―ve, treating Michelle as a kind person, hoping that she could really save him.

He's also broken jars now.

I don't know why, he always feels that fools are very lucky. In that case, he simply became a fool and saw if his luck would get better.

"Where are we going?" In the darkness of the night, Benjamin and Michelle walked down a remote lane in the outer city. Benjamin asked, to Michelle.

"Go to church and kill all those hypocrites. Michelle replied casually.

"Very well, I've wanted to do this for a long time!" replied Benjamin, holding back the silence in his heart, trying to look like a fool, with a look of antiquation.

It's a tough thing to endure headaches while not complaining about Michelle's nonsense.

Benjamin felt like he was running out of energy.

Of course, on the other hand, the headache could suppress his curiosity a little, and make him less curious about what Michelle was going to do.

Like now, even though he followed Michelle, walking aimlessly, he had no idea what it was about. However, there was a strange sense of relief in his heart, as if even if Michelle was going to sell him to the church, he was not worried at all.

There is a ...... There is an exam tomorrow, but he doesn't review a word of it.

Therefore, he simply followed Michelle while returning to the consciousness space, continuing the work of mending the cracks, and didn't care what happened in the real world, just let it develop.

Seriously, in this state, even if Michelle actually brought him to church, he would not be aware of it at all.

But fortunately, Michelle is not so frustrated.

I don't know how long it took for them to stop. Benjamin was also reminded by the system to leave the space of consciousness and return to reality.

He came back to his senses and began to observe his surroundings.

It's a desolate backyard, and I don't know where to go in the outer city. The yard was empty, the bleak moonlight, and the only thing visible was a dead old tree, and a well.

Around the courtyard, there is no one to see, and no one should have been here for a long time.

In such an environment, even if Benjamin has a self-defeating mentality and doesn't bother to care about anything, he still can't help but feel a little confused.

What did Michelle bring him here for?

It's weird......

Although he knew that he might not get any normal answer, Benjamin couldn't help but ask, "What are you bringing me here for?"

Fortunately, Michelle's answer finally became normal: "The church people are about to search the original place, we have to hide in another place." Besides, we can't just keep hiding. ”

Shift positions......

Benjamin was thoughtful. Suddenly, his face changed, and his eyes couldn't help but fall on the well in the courtyard.

His imagination is still very rich. Immediately after seeing the well, he linked it with Michelle's words and came up with a conjecture.

Could it be that there is a secret passage in this well?

As if to confirm Benjamin's conjecture, Michelle, after saying this, also walked to the well, stopped, and looked meaningfully towards the well, as if there was really something in the well that could help them escape.

Benjamin couldn't help but look forward to it.

As the capital of the kingdom, Havenlite has a very complete defense, and if you want to enter and exit the royal capital, you can only go through the city gate. At this moment, the gates of the city were sealed by the church, and no one was allowed to enter or leave. Therefore, it is actually difficult for them to escape from the royal capital, so they can only hide around in the outer city, and if they are not careful, they will be sniffed by the church.

But if there really is a secret passage, then everything will be different.

Just like in the inn before, they could use the secret passage to avoid the eyes of the church and escape outside the city without knowing it. And at that time, the church can only desperately continue to search for him in the royal capital, how can they think that he has already fled?

It's ...... Awesome!

"What are you looking at? You don't think there's a secret passage in this well, do you?" Michelle, however, looked back at Benjamin and spoke, shattering his dream, "The king has no secret passage to the outside of the city. At the beginning of the state, the pope placed a forbidden spell on the city walls. As a result, the walls never collapsed, and no one was able to dig a secret passage through the walls from the ground. ”

β€œ......”

Pit daddy.

However, when he got closer, Benjamin also saw that the well was not dry, and that there was still a steady stream of water in the well, so it was indeed impossible to have a secret passage here.

Bai was happy.

However, just as Benjamin began to feel puzzled again, Michelle suddenly pulled out a dagger. She stretched out her arm, rolled up her sleeve, and slashed her dagger at her arm. So the blood oozed out quickly, ran down her hand, and dripped into the well.

Benjamin was stunned.

This is...... What are you doing?

I saw Michelle just sitting on the edge of the well, letting her blood drip into the well little by little. She suddenly spoke, reciting a spell that Benjamin had never heard before, and the whole picture resembled a strange picture of a cult sacrifice.

At that moment, Benjamin, who was watching from the sidelines, suddenly felt an extremely powerful spiritual force burst out from Michelle's body. The surrounding elements also fluctuated strangely.

That spiritual power is so powerful that it has even far surpassed that of the bishop, and it is a bit of a desire to catch up with the Pope.

"......," Benjamin couldn't help but scold.

What's the situation?

He knew Michelle's magical strength, and when he watched Michelle cast spells before, he also felt Michelle's spiritual power. Seriously, in terms of mental power, Michelle is a little stronger than him, and he is not particularly outstanding at all.

However, it has only been a long time since she has seen her, why does she have such terrifying spiritual power?

Benjamin was so shocked that he thought he was hallucinating.

W-That's not right!

If it weren't for Benjamin's mental power being traumatized, he would definitely use the water elemental sensing method to carefully observe what had happened to Michelle. However, now he can't use it, so he can only stare wide-eyed and watch dryly.

With that weird feeling in his heart, Benjamin kind of wanted to go up and stop Michelle. But out of prudence, he still did nothing.

Michelle...... What do you want to do?

Soon, Michelle finished the incantation, turned his head, and looked back at Benjamin with a solemn face.

"You don't need to be afraid, I'm opening the gates of the royal capital. Her voice was hoarse, like the hissing of a poisonous snake scurrying in the desert, "The church has only temporarily sealed the gates of the city by relying on the faith of the people of the royal capital in them. However, if a plague suddenly breaks out in the royal capital, and everyone panics, no matter how great the church's ability is, it will not be possible to continue to close the royal capital. ”

As she spoke, she returned her gaze to her bloodied arm and paused before continuing, "In order to create enough chaos, I can only spread the curse throughout the royal capital." ”
