Chapter 42: Hunted down by the butler

In the face of the heavy rain, the serfs who were escorting a carriage were in distress, and they had no choice but to speed up the process and enter the city before the gates were closed. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Duke, on the other hand, saw no heavy rain on him, he just lightly lit his body with his wand for two days, and then just as the rain was about to touch his clothes, it turned a corner and fell to the ground.

When a serf discovered this miraculous phenomenon, his mouth opened wide in surprise.

They were sure that this must be a great magician.

I just hope he doesn't be a necromancer.

Without the rain, Duke walked very fast, and in the end the serfs could only see Duke's back blurred in the torrential rain.

"Carter City?" Duke said strangely, glancing at the gates. He hadn't heard of this name in England, so was it really the plot of the novel?

Benjamin was in his lab, or his bedroom, so to speak.

Because 365 days a year, Benjamin is doing experiments every day, studying necromantic creatures.

It's his only hobby.

Worship death.

When he saw the familiar laboratory for the first time, with all the potions and reagents prepared, Benjamin was a little excited.

He actually came back.

But after the excitement passed, Benjamin calmed down again.

He began to recall the scene of that night.

He saw a suspicious wizard out of the window and rushed down.

In fact, in retrospect, there are many doubts. Why did that wizard bury a magical creature there, he could have used magic to destroy its entire corpse.

The only explanation: the wizard just put it here temporarily, and will definitely come back to get it after avoiding the limelight. If he returns and finds the body gone, will he suspect him at his aunt's house?

Although Benjamin didn't like them very much, sin does not lead to death.

He didn't think about it for a while, and then he was so stupid that he put the magical creature back into his room, and he fainted.

In the absence of poisoning, toxins permeate the whole body, or irritate the sensations of the nerves.

Benjamin felt that it was more of a curse that kept him unconscious.

After thinking about this, Benjamin knew that everything in front of him should be a dream, a dream made up by this curse.

It seems that he still underestimated the magic of this world, or the magical creatures.

Benjamin sneered and wanted to touch his chin, but he didn't expect it to be bare!

He found a greasy mirror in his laboratory and saw his pale face in it, which was not the point, the point was that he was still a child!

I thought I could turn back into that handsome self in my dreams!

Benjamin instantly realizes the danger and tries to find a place to hide, but it's too late.

The entire town hall, that is, the steward of the castle, the ghost he refined, Uncle Bach, had pushed open the door.

He carried a dim oil lamp in his hand, suspended in the air.

The kind gaze, the philanthropic expression, were nothing more than a disguise that Benjamin gave him.

If Barrow the Bloody Man is the most cunning of Benjamin's necromantic creatures, yes, Benjamin must admit it, a ghost. Then Uncle Bach, this amiable ghost like Grandpa KFC in the Muggle world, is definitely the most ferocious one.

That's why Benjamin chose it as a butler.

Any intruder, will not listen to explanations, only kill.

When Uncle Bach saw Benjamin, he immediately threw away the oil lamp in his hand and ran to Benjamin.

Benjamin touched his waist, glad his wand was still there. So he immediately pulled it out of his waist and used a stiff leg charm.

"Freeze and die!"

For ghosts, they are well protected against physical attacks, and the knight's spear will not damage much if it pierces their body.

But magic is different.

Uncle Bach stared at Benjamin in amazement, his kind eyes now filled with anger.

Benjamin had no doubt that when he broke free from the spell, he would break himself to pieces.

But Benjamin was more familiar with the lab than anyone else, and there was a secret passage behind the cabinet where the baby's placenta, the woman's limbs, and the tiger's tail were placen.

From here, you will be able to reach the second floor of the castle.

Benjamin, under Uncle Bach's gaze, pushed open the cabinet with difficulty.

"Little devil, you filthy thief, how do you know your master's secret ways!

Although Benjamin was a little moved to hear Uncle Bach defend himself like this, he quickly jumped into the tunnel.

God knows when he'll be able to get out of the spell.

The tunnels were so damp that there was nothing left but the flames on either side of the walls that were about to go out.

If you come across a swarm of slugs, or a ghoul, Benjamin wouldn't be surprised.

He took out his wand and used a lighting charm, the simplest spell at Hogwarts. The only use of this spell was to bring the same light as a flashlight in the Muggle world, and it could not even provide warmth.

After walking through the dark passage, Benjamin pushed open a small door, he knew that this was a room with miscellaneous items, he just had to wait for no one to go out, and then find a way to wake up.

Benjamin suddenly wished he was at Hogwarts, because Draco or Frank would surely find himself unconscious.

Professor Snape, or Professor Dumbledore, must have a way of waking himself up.

After hearing a voice coming from the dark tunnel, Benjamin immediately pushed open the small door and hid in the utility room.

It seems that the butler has already caught up, and the duration of the stiff leg spell is really unsatisfactory.

"Maybe I should make a trap, but I'm not good at it. Benjamin said in distress that he had learned most of the general magic in the Hogwarts library, except for necromancy.

Before, he had never been dismissive of this kind of magic.

Could it be that he is using necromancy to control the butler here?Benjamin immediately rejected the idea, he was not able to complete such a difficult movement in this body.

Soon, though, Benjamin smiled relaxedly.

As he huddled by the door of the utility room, he heard a familiar voice, which he had never thought the bells and whistles of a man had ever heard good.

Does that mean that his current situation has been known to his parents?

Benjamin was relieved.

When Duke walks into Carter City, he runs into trouble.

These soldiers, dressed in shabby armor and smelling of sweat, actually stopped him.

"Your Excellency, because of the heavy rain, the city gate has been closed early. ”
