"Wait...... You're saying that Bishop Cameron has been killed by you?"

In the town hall of Changhe Town, the king suddenly stood up from his chair and said in disbelief. Several officials and Benjamin standing on both sides of the hall couldn't help but look at each other at this moment.

Miles, on the other hand, nodded.

"I've been lurking inside Glori, waiting for my chance. Just a few days ago, Master Benjamin was harassing Glory, and the defenders almost came out of the nest in order to stabilize the situation. Bishop Cameron was left alone, so I assassinated him. ”

When the king heard this, he was still a little speechless for a while, as if the news was too shocking for him.

After all, from the very beginning, it was this bishop who was sent by the church to negotiate with him. From the fake cooperation to the tearing of the skin later, the power was snatched away from his hands little by little, and the king still left a considerable shadow in his heart.

And now, Miles went to show up and tell him such news, and he was of course a little stunned for a moment.

Not only the king, but even Benjamin was taken aback.

“...... You're going to assassinate the Bishop, why don't you contact us first?"

Miles shrugged his shoulders and said, "Not long after I entered Glori, the whole city was sealed off, and I couldn't get in touch with you. That piece of wood that you emits will emit faint waves of mana, too deadly for an assassination. I didn't dare to put it on my body, so I had to find a place to bury it first. ”

“...... All right. ”

When Benjamin heard this, he could only nod.

But...... If the news is correct, this must be the last bishop in Carretus, right?

He suddenly perked up.

"Your Majesty, although we may not be fully prepared, we have to do it. He looked at the king and said, "Now that the last bishop of Carretus is dead, there are many priests and paladins left, but they must be very chaotic because they have lost their command. We should take advantage of the time to send troops and get Glory back!"

As soon as these words came out, many people present were stunned.

The general on the side also stepped forward and echoed Benjamin's words, saying, "Your Majesty, this is indeed a good opportunity. We need to retake Glory and organize the nation's forces against Ikor's invasion. ”

However, at such a juncture, the king's expression seemed to show hesitation.

"We ...... Is that okay?"

It was probably because the church had been pressing on his head for so long that it had become a kind of shadow. When he had the opportunity to break through the shadows, he felt an instinctive apprehension.

Can they really overcome the church?

"No one knows what the outcome will be, but if it doesn't work now, the restoration of the country will probably only be a distant dream. Benjamin said slowly, "We can take our time, but Ikor's army will not wait for us, and the church can also send reinforcements from the Kingdom of Hori." This may be our best chance yet. ”

When the others heard this, they also nodded their heads in agreement.

Ikor's invasion was like a thorn in their throat. As natives of Carretus, they want to defend their country, but because of the church, they can only stay in this small town, which is really unbearable.

Because of this, they actually wanted to send troops a long time ago.

"But...... In case we lose......" said the king hesitantly.

"Then make a comeback. Benjamin's tone was unusually firm, "Your Majesty, one day, we will go to face the church head-on." The longer you prepare, the stronger the fear in your heart. ”

The king was silent for a moment, took a deep breath, and finally, nodded with determination.

"Alright, let's send troops and bring Glori back. ”

Suddenly, the guards on the side clenched their fists excitedly.

In this way, in order to be able to win the best opportunity to carry out, the general immediately went back to reorganize the soldiers and prepared to go on the expedition. The various officials in the town of Long River also got busy, staying in the town hall with the king, and frantically discussing the battle plan.

Leaving the town hall, Benjamin headed for the mage district of Long River.

"Changhe Town...... It's a good choice. Miles came up from behind, and suddenly spoke.

Benjamin turned his head, frowned, and said, "The war is about to start, why don't you prepare yourself?"

"I don't have anything to prepare. Miles shook his head and said, "Otherwise, I will protect the king closely, or I will follow the army to the battlefield to kill people, what else can I do?"

"It's also ......"

Miles suddenly asked, "Do you have faith in this battle?"

Benjamin shook his head as he walked and said, "Not much, even if the bishop dies, there are many priests who remain here." I don't know the number of priests, but if there are thousands, we will definitely face an uphill battle. ”

"And you're so sure you're going to send troops?"

"If you don't send troops, you won't have a chance. Benjamin sighed and said, "Don't you know Ikor's progress? In half a month, they'll hit Glory." If Ikorl were to take Glori, the chances of us taking it back would be almost nil. ”

"Actually...... Ikor's capture of Carretus should have little effect on you mages. As long as it's not the church, why do you bother so much to help Your Majesty?"

Benjamin let out an undeniable laugh.

"You don't know what Ikor's mage is like. ”

After thinking about it, on the way back to the mage area, he still explained the general situation to Miles. After listening to the queen control all the mages with potions, Miles nodded thoughtfully.

"I see......"

When Benjamin heard this, he seemed to think of something: "Don't tell me that you plan to assassinate the queen too." ”

"You can try. ”

Benjamin shook his head with a smile and said, "Okay, you go and try." If you do succeed, the King and all of Carretus will thank you. ”

If the queen really died, I'm afraid there would be a bloodbath in Ikor territory, right?

In this way, Miles seemed to have been given some new challenge, and turned away, not knowing if he really wondered if he had gone to assassinate the Queen. Benjamin ignored him and hurried back to the mage quarters.

He first sent a message to the mage team on the other side of the grassland, and then gathered all the people in the mage area of Changhe Town.

"The decisive battle is about to begin. ”

The square where magic was practiced was now filled with mages and apprentices listening quietly. Benjamin glanced around, the number of apprentices was already increasing, long past the triple digits. They stood in a group, dressed in uniform clothes, and also showed a unique momentum.

Benjamin felt a little pity in his heart.

In time, many of them will become powerful mages. It's just that the times never stop for any genius.

In order to deal with the priest brigade of the Church, as long as there is a little combat power among these people, even if it is only a fireball technique, he plans to bring it to the battlefield.

Thankfully, there was no fear on their faces after Benjamin finished speaking.

"Mr. Benjamin, can we finally get the church out of my home?" said one of the apprentices, taking a deep breath and looking excited.

Benjamin smiled and nodded.

The haze in my heart was suddenly swept away.

Times will not wait for them, and many of these apprentices may die in them. But those who survive, the times will make them heroes of Carretus.
