After breakfast, Benjamin consciously followed the maid to the barracks. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

After so many days of military training, this has become a habit, not to mention that Benjamin has other tasks today -- he is going to ask some inside story about "watching the cross" from the recruits of the same battalion. Therefore, of course, he will not shirk.

And just like that, he came to the gunfire camp.

After a few hours of training, Dean announced a break, the queue dispersed, everyone found a place to sit, and Benjamin finally had a chance to speak.

He sat down next to a well-known recruit, rubbed his sore shoulder, and then, pretending to be inadvertent, spoke:

"Mark, have you heard? His Majesty the Pope finally showed up last night. ”

Recruit Mark suddenly showed an unnatural look on his face. He glanced at Benjamin, turned his head in silence, stood up, and walked to another place to sit down, completely ignoring Benjamin's meaning.

“......”

Benjamin was confused.

What's the situation?

I had a good conversation yesterday, why did I suddenly become dumb today?

After thinking about it, he sat down next to another recruit who had been chatting for a while: "Ian, what's going on, why does Mark have such a stinky face today?"

Recruit Ian glanced at him and ran away like a plague.

“......”

Benjamin couldn't help but take a breath into his hand and sniff it carefully. He didn't have bad breath, he also brushed his teeth, why did these people look disgusted?

What's the matter?

If it's because he doesn't dare to talk about church, then there's no need for recruit Ian to run away, right? Benjamin just asked him why Mark's face stinks.

I don't understand what these people are thinking.

Just as Benjamin was sitting alone, confused by the attitude of the recruits and agonizing over how to inquire about the news, suddenly, a voice sounded behind him.

"They don't dare to talk to you because they think you have a special cross made by the Church, and they are afraid that the Pope will see you for lazy rest, so they have to hide away. ”

Benjamin turned his head to look up. I saw Instructor Dean standing behind him, holding his arms in his hands, and said so.

This instructor really likes to kill in the back.

However, in the face of Instructor Dean's sudden attack, Benjamin did not feel surprised or nervous, but felt a sense of relief.

Finally someone could answer his doubts.

"Aren't you afraid?"

After thinking about it, Benjamin suddenly opened his mouth and asked.

Dean shrugged his shoulders and said, "Why be afraid, you don't have that kind of cross on you that can be monitored. I'm scolding here, and it can't reach the ears of the Pope, what can he do with me. ”

When Benjamin heard this, he couldn't help laughing a few times, and said, "It seems that you know very well what happened last night." ”

The Kingdom Army is subordinate to the royal family and obeys the orders of the Church. As an instructor in the Kingdom Army, Dean must know a lot of things.

"It's more than clear. Sure enough, Dean snorted disdainfully, and then said, "I heard from the instructor of the knight's camp next door that a noble boy left the scene last night before the Pope appeared. He tried to stop the boy, but he was scolded instead, and when he came back in anger, he called the people from the knight's camp in the middle of the night and ran all night. I guess that kid is you. ”

Hearing this, Benjamin glanced at the knights' camp next door with some surprise.

Such a coincidence?

No wonder I always feel weak when I listen to the shouts next door today.

However, the few royal knights who stopped him last night actually had someone training recruits in the Kingdom Army, and now they were next door to him?

If the knight had known that Benjamin was here, he would have rushed over to teach him a lesson.

No way, on the streets of the royal capital, Benjamin is a high nobleman, and the knights of the royal family are just knights. But in the barracks, the knight is the commander of the army, and Benjamin is just a small recruit.

The environment can determine a person's status to a large extent.

Thinking of this, Benjamin hurriedly patted Dean's ass: "Instructor, you are so fucking handsome!"

Dean burst out laughing.

After laughing, he shook his head a little helplessly and said, "Come on, I won't tell him that your kid is here." You are my soldier, and he is not qualified to come and teach you a lesson. ”

"Yes, yes, the instructor said. ”

Dean smiled again and shook his head.

"By the way......" enough jokes, and the atmosphere was a lot more lively, Benjamin thought for a moment, and finally asked what he wanted to ask, "How did you tell I didn't wear that cross?"

Hearing this, Dean snorted and said, "That's not easy. The cross had to be burned into the flesh of the palm of the hand with divine magic, and it could not be made or hidden. I looked at it carefully during training, and you didn't have anything on your hands, so you must have escaped. ”

Benjamin raised his eyebrows in surprise.

Seared into the meat...... So bloody?

Just listening to it, Benjamin felt a little pain in his hands.

He never imagined that Jeremy heard of "wearing a cross" would actually be "worn" in this way. How could those noble children endure such suffering? They didn't resist on the spot?

There were probably more twists and turns last night than he imagined.

Benjamin also quickly thought of Grant.

What about Grant? He wasn't blind, and if Grant had a cross embedded in the palm of his hand, he wouldn't have found nothing at breakfast.

There is no doubt that Grant was not "worn" on the watch cross.

Why?

The answer to hiding in the treasury is too mysterious, this is a fantasy world, and Benjamin refuses to believe it.

There must be other reasons.

"But my brother was at the party, and he didn't have a cross in his palm. Thinking of this, Benjamin was not shy about it, and asked it bluntly.

He wasn't afraid of Dean either. Now the situation in the royal capital is so complicated, people are panicking, and everyone is looking for news. If he pretends not to care about anything, he will look even more suspicious.

"You bullshit, you think I don't know who your own brother is?" Dean snorted disdainfully, and said, "The cross doesn't work against priests who have learned divine arts, let alone your brother is known as the Pope's successor." Does the church need to listen to him?"

Hearing this, Benjamin nodded thoughtfully.

"I see, no wonder ......"

Listening to crosses can only work on ordinary people.

This information is quite crucial.

Of course, as for Dean's remark that "the church needs to listen to him", Benjamin felt that it was still needed. The church really should have a good idea of what Grant is doing in his free time.

But......

Getting back to the point, Benjamin was also apprehensive at the thought that if he hadn't left the party in time, the cross would have failed for him, and that he would reveal his identity as a mage under the pope's nose.

Really, it's good that he ran fast.

"You aristocrats must have blown up the pot, and the church has heard all the dirty secrets. Just as Benjamin was secretly rejoicing, Dean suddenly changed his tone and asked, "Tell me when you are going to protest at the door of the church." ”

Hearing this, Benjamin laughed dryly.

He'd gotten a lot of news from Dean, and now, Dean was going to ask him something.

Fair enough.

Unfortunately, he didn't have much to offer to Dean.

"I don't know. He shook his head and said, "You know, I don't wear that kind of cross, and my brother doesn't wear that kind of cross." We are the only two of the noble children in our family, and this incident has no effect on our family, so we treat it as if it didn't happen at home. Even if someone were to go to church to protest, they wouldn't call our family. ”

In this case, the Reeser family did seem quite lucky.

When Dean heard this, he had no choice but to smile helplessly and pat Benjamin on the shoulder a few times.

"Cunning little bunny, you take all the benefits. ”

With that, he shook his head and turned to walk away, seemingly without any more questions to ask. However, even if he had more questions, he probably wouldn't be able to ask them again.

It's time for a break from training.

I saw him walk to the center of the camp and shout at the top of his voice: "It's time to rest, stand up for me!" Mark, what about you, what are you laughing at, punish you with 200 push-ups, don't think about eating until you finish it. ”

At Dean's shouting, everyone quickly gathered together and lined up. Everyone pursed their mouths vigorously, not daring to laugh, and could only look at Mark with a sad face with gloating eyes.
