"Now...... What's going on in the church?"

The military meeting between several countries was reconvened. Sitting in the middle of the hall, Benjamin took a deep breath and asked, a little nervous in the face of a possible war.

He made such a fuss in the kingdom of Hori, and he didn't know if he could buy enough time.

"At present, the Kingdom of Hori is still very peaceful, and there is no sign of stationing troops on the border. "Also, we have some spies who have reported that some of the church's latest personnel transfers seem to be moving people to the south. ”

Benjamin raised an eyebrow: "South?"

To the south, there will be nothing but the endless sea. The Church had already amassed a lot of troops in Crewe, and if they really wanted to go to war, it would be impossible to transfer them away.

So...... What does this mean?

Does that mean...... The Church has dismissed any intention of sending troops?" asked the King of Carretus, with an expectant expression.

"It's hard to say. General Stewart shook his head and said, "Although, judging from what I have found, the previous preparations for war have been withdrawn. But don't forget, that's the church, don't take what they show for granted. This will most likely be a trap for us to let our guard down. ”

Benjamin also nodded his head in agreement.

The vital key is still with him, and the church has no reason to give it up. In fact, this trip did not cause much damage to the church, and they could not have been intimidated by this.

On the contrary, the Church was enraged even more, and it was normal for them to rush to attack Ikor and even send a bunch of assassins to assassinate Benjamin.

"But...... Perhaps it was the same overseas sect that had invaded Carretus before. The king thought for a moment and asked, "Is it possible that that group of people also appeared in the Kingdom of Hori, so they involved some of the church's energy and made them give up their plans to invade?"

As soon as these words came out, many people showed some surprised expressions.

The president of the "Overseas Sect ......" pondered for a while and said, "We have also heard about what happened in Carretus a few days ago. It's just that, according to some ancient records, those people lived on overseas islands and rarely had contact with us. In a short period of time, they suddenly started to make trouble, which is not like their style. ”

"But there's always a possibility, right?"

"Hmmm......"

Everyone looked at each other, but they couldn't think of any reason to refute it for a while.

Could it really be for the sake of the overseas church?

Benjamin touched his chin and pondered. To be honest, he seemed to have heard from someone that the overseas sect had landed in the port of the Kingdom of Hori, only to be killed by the people of the church.

It would also be a good thing for them if the church had to give up its intention to attack because of such external factors.

It's just that he doesn't feel like he should let his guard down like this.

"We have to keep this intense war preparation going, and what really happened, one day we will know. Therefore, he spoke slowly, "As for the dispute between the overseas sect and the church...... I'll find a way to look into it, and if there's something worth using, we can put it to good use. ”

Hearing this, everyone nodded.

Immediately after that, there was the deployment of the defensive line on the Ikor border. They deliberated for hours, and finally came up with a plan for 50,000 troops to fill the defensive line. These defenders were not only stationed near the Crussard Gate, but also stretched along the entire mountain range, ensuring that they would be the first to know about any attack from which the Church was attacking.

After the meeting, Benjamin returned to the academy.

"What is the attitude of the elders and the like towards the Church of Light about your sect?" asked Benjamin in the ghost's lab, finding the two siblings.

"Attitude...... Hate, right?" said the girl, after a moment's thought, "the elder rarely talks about things outside, but when he talks about the Church of Light, he grits his teeth, and longs to send all of them into the abyss and be judged by the goddess. ”

"Is it possible that they suddenly landed in the Kingdom of Hori in the past few days and started to cause trouble for the church?"

"This ...... I don't know. ”

Benjamin finally nodded.

In this way, the overseas sect is not necessarily a force that must be hostile. While they may still consider mages heretics in the end, at least until the Church of Light is wiped out, there is something to be used for them.

Thinking so, Benjamin was about to turn around and leave, but was suddenly stopped by the two siblings, who seemed to have something to say to him.

"What's wrong?"

The young man hesitated for a moment and spoke: "I think...... I feel as if we've discovered a way to domesticate ancestral spirits. ”

Suddenly, Benjamin showed a look of surprise.

"How?"

This ghost has been studied for some time, and it is clear that the mage's methods have no effect on it. Even a dark mage can't command this ghost to fight for them.

Benjamin can only pin his hopes on these two siblings.

If they could really research something, so many ghosts beneath the abyss, and using them, would be a rather terrifying weapon.

"Like you said before, trap it in the body of a living being. The young man said slowly, "It's just that the reason why you couldn't command it before was probably because you didn't practice chanting, so you couldn't communicate with it. Plus your way of trapping it...... Eventually, obedience turned into hatred. ”

"Have you tried it?"

"Not yet. The boy shook his head and said, "Then you'll have to let the ghost out." That one...... Master Mage, we need your permission. ”

Benjamin nodded.

Just try it, anyway, as long as the sound is separated, the ghosts won't do much damage to them.

Thinking so, Benjamin caught another sparrow for them, and used the sparrow to lure the ghost out of the small opening, then sealed it with a soundproof ice hockey ball, and then took it to a place where there was plenty of light element.

"Is that okay?"

Looking at the ghost that was once again parasitic in the sparrow's body, Benjamin scratched his head and asked.

"Well......," the girl nodded, "give it to me." ”

Benjamin handed the fainting sparrow into the girl's hands. The girl held the sparrow in her hand and closed her eyes, accompanied by a subtle fluctuation of mental power, she seemed to be performing some kind of chanting spell.

The system also found that some spiritual power seemed to have formed a tentacle-like form, spreading out from the girl's body and burrowing into the sparrow's body.

"It's ......," Benjamin frowned.

"Shhhh The young man whispered, "Master Mage, my sister is trying to domesticate the ancestral spirit. This is the most critical step. ”

Benjamin suddenly seemed to think of something: "That...... What if she fails to domesticate?"

"It's going to be backfired. The young man showed a weak expression and said a little nervously, "Maybe your mental power will be hit hard, you will lose all your memories, and you will become an idiot." It could also cause the ghost to die on the spot...... In short, in our homeland, there are some terrible legends. ”

When Benjamin heard this, he couldn't help but be shocked.

Don't you say early that there are such serious side effects?

Obviously, the two siblings were afraid that he would object, so they had just omitted this part. Benjamin felt very helpless, if he knew that there was such a danger, he really did not intend to let the only existing telepathic talent sacrifice on this.

It's just that...... No matter how much he opposes it now, it is obviously meaningless.

Looking at the girl with her eyes closed and her mental power fluctuating for a while, Benjamin just shook his head and waited in a gang, patiently waiting for the end of domestication.
