Benjamin probably spent three days in Crewe. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

During these three days, meditation took up most of his time. In fact, it had been a long time since he had practiced magic like this, the haste of escape, the cracks in his consciousness space...... There were many factors that prevented him from meditating. And now, he finally has a chance, and naturally he has to make up for the homework he has missed.

Of course, he didn't spend all his time meditating, he was still in the kingdom, and he was still wanted by the church, so he didn't have a sense of crisis at all. Therefore, during these three days, he also conducted a more in-depth investigation of the Crusade gate.

I have to say, the tavern is indeed a good place to get the news. Whether it's sitting on the sidelines eavesdropping or getting together to pour each other a drink, he knows a lot of things he wants to know.

These days, he's met all sorts of people in the tavern. The soldiers, cooks, quartermasters, cleaners, and craftsmen who claimed to have participated in the repair of the gates...... Benjamin didn't dare to probe too explicitly, but just because of that, he had already drawn a diagram of the entire structure of the gate.

He also inquired about the existence of a spare cross.

From the mouth of a half-drunk quartermaster, he learned that in addition to the ten crosses held by the guards, there were five other crosses at the gate, which were placed in a storehouse deep in the gate. The key to the storeroom was in the quartermaster's hand, and when he spoke of the place, he took it out and shook it like a child showing off his new toy, which showed how drunk he was.

If it weren't for the large number of people around, Benjamin would have snatched it on the spot.

Of course, he will not let go of such a good opportunity. As soon as the quartermaster left the tavern drunk, he followed, ready to snatch the key when he reached some inaccessible intersection.

Unfortunately, unexpectedly, as soon as the quartermaster came out of the door of the tavern, he was so drunk that he collapsed, causing a large number of onlookers. Before Benjamin could "enthusiastically" go up to help, the two really enthusiastic crowds ran out and carried the quartermaster all the way back to the gate.

When he saw this scene, Benjamin was so angry! Such a good opportunity was missed by him. But the two men had already helped them up, and he was not close out of caution, so it was useless for him to move even as fast as he could.

So, he had to comfort himself that this quartermaster was so fond of drinking that he must have come to the tavern often. There is no chance this time, he can wait for next time. However, when he returned to the tavern, the bartender told him that the quartermaster had never been to the tavern for a drink, and that this was the first time that he would probably not come again. Therefore, Benjamin has no other mood than remorse.

Alas...... I had to find another way to get the key.

No matter what, there is always a good side to things. At the very least, he knew where the spare crosses were, where they were placed, and where to get the key. Next, all he needed was more information about the inside of the gate, and a chance to sneak in.

Best, as the proprietress of the textile shop said, the people in the gate start shopping again, and Benjamin can hide in a bag of grain or something, sneak into the gate, and find a way to steal the cross.

In this way, while meditating, he planned a way to pass through the gate, and the three days passed in a flash.

On the morning of the fourth day, his peaceful life was interrupted again. What interrupted his peaceful life was not a sudden change, but the small group of mages hidden in the town of Crewe, who had once again held a rally.

Since the last magic class, Benjamin has also faintly felt a sense of responsibility in his heart for these people.

Therefore, he stopped meditating and happily went to the meeting.

Through the secret passage, he came to the hidden underground warehouse again, and he suddenly found that the expressions on everyone's faces had changed again. These people stood in a heap, chatting passionately, talking about each other's fresh feelings about magic cultivation, and when it came to excitement, even the cheeks on both sides would heat and redden.

- It's a world away from the first time Benjamin met them, when he was a neighbor at the wet market.

Faced with this situation, Benjamin was very relieved, and couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

What else could he say?

Cheese changes fate.

And they soon found out about Benjamin's arrival. Like students who were eager to show off after getting a perfect score, they rushed towards Benjamin.

"Mr. Benjamin, oh no...... Lord Benjamin, you're finally here!"

"It's so effective, how did you find such a good way?"

"Your Excellency Benjamin, I encountered a small problem during my meditation and would like to ask you. ”

“......”

All kinds of voices completely drowned out Benjamin's ears. He hurriedly waved his hand, raised his voice, and tried his best to appease the twenty-odd mages in front of him who were at the peak of their curiosity.

"Take your time...... Take it easy...... If someone encounters any questions in the process of cultivation, they will be raised one by one, and as long as they are within my ability, I will answer them, so there is no need to rush, take your time......

After some hard work, Benjamin finally quieted them down and the whole scene did not get out of control.

Then, he began to answer questions.

It has to be said that even after just three days, these people's knowledge of magic has improved by leaps and bounds, as can be seen from the questions they ask. Before, they were wondering what the magic element was, but now, they had begun to wonder why the magic element would bring such a change to people.

Of course, in this case, the questions they ask become more intractable. Just like the merchant Wallis, he began to struggle with whether the magic element was a spiritual or material thing, and if it was a material thing, why could it directly act on the human spirit?

How should Benjamin answer this kind of question?

In the end, he had no choice but to follow the spirit of the Athenian school, saying that the truth would be found in constant debate, hoping that they would discuss it with each other, and encouraging them to think and debate with each other to reach a result.

So, they got together again and had a heated discussion with each other.

Benjamin finally breathed a sigh of relief.

To be honest, his cultivation methods were completely different from those of these people. His experience is not applicable to them, so their own path and direction must be discovered by themselves.

He couldn't help them much.

However, just when he thought that the meeting would end in a heated discussion, suddenly, a foul smell came. Under the dry scratch of this smell, everyone involuntarily covered their noses, stopped debating, and let out a strange cry of surprise.

"It stinks, what's going on?" someone in the crowd complained.

Of course, this change did not happen to Benjamin at all.

...... What the?

Don't tell him that this is a bioweapon unleashed on them by the Church.

In this way, in confusion, everyone also turned around and looked at the source of the smell.

I saw that at the exit of the secret passage, a young man crawled out at this moment. He carried a large wooden barrel in his right hand, and the stench came from the barrel in his hand.

"Frank!" exclaimed a young girl at once, a little angrily, "what are you going to do? You've disappointed everyone!"

Hearing this, Benjamin was also a little surprised. He almost thought that the people who taught and knew how to teach him were really going to come over and do something.

Fortunately, the young man named "Frank" in front of him looks very familiar now.

And...... It's still a little familiar.

Isn't this because the southern accent is too strong, so he always can't learn magic?

Facing everyone's disgusted eyes, Frank scratched his head a little embarrassedly and said, "Don't be angry, I didn't mean to." Trust me, my tardiness was there for a reason, including this stuff, because I had a very significant discovery. I'm going to tell you about it. ”

Benjamin listened and couldn't help but feel a little like laughing.

As the proprietress said when she introduced him, the young man spoke with a thick accent, and Benjamin didn't even understand a few words, and he barely understood what he meant in connection with the context.

With this level of accent, it's no wonder that the spells are not pronounced correctly, and I have only learned the magic of the water of life all along.

"What have you discovered? Can you smoke all the church people to death with the contents of this bucket?" said the young girl, who was still obviously a little dissatisfied, pinching her nose and not being able to help but say sarcastically.

However, Frank seemed to be used to this sarcasm, and did not care, but laughed silly twice.

"No, we don't have to go through the gate. He shook his head and said, "With the contents of this bucket, we can go directly over the distant mountain, and we don't have to be afraid of the griffin on the mountain anymore!"
