Everyone appeared in a small village that was burned, and the shock was not because of the burned sight, but because everyone saw a man who seemed to have been drained of his essence and blood, and his body was shriveled and attached to the stone pillar, but he showed a sense of satisfaction, and at his feet was surrounded by bloody corpses, and the corpses were surrounded by some small carnivorous monsters, and it seemed that the tragic condition of these corpses must have been caused by these monsters......

The four girls suddenly felt a churning in their stomachs, Christine casually threw a few fireballs over, those monsters suddenly scattered, the timid ones ran away without looking back, a few of them were a little bolder, and they showed their fangs unwillingly and looked at a few people viciously, Christine threw out a few fireballs again without hesitation, and the monster that was hit let out a roar, and quickly fled into the distance, and the others also fled.

"It should have been done by the Holy See. Isabella's face turned pale, and she looked extremely frightened, and said tremblingly, "The pillar in the middle is the way in which the Holy See judges heresy, and becomes the pillar of inspiration, which is used against the most extreme infidels and forces his soul to submit to the inspiration of God......" At this point, she could not speak any more, and the tears on her face could not stop pouring out of her eyes like a flood that burst the embankment.

Ruoqing walked over and hugged Isabella tightly, patting her back gently and comforting her.

"It's the Holy See again," said Benjamin, resentfully, "let's go, get out of here first." ”

After the group had left the village and walked some distance forward, Sophia said:

"We should be in the western part of the empire, near the border with the territory of the Holy See, the nearest city here should be Buili, let's go to the main road first and ask someone. ”

The group followed Sophia's advice and walked on for about an hour, until at last they came to the end of the road, and after stopping a carriage coming from the front, Benjamin asked:

"Excuse me, what is this place, and how should we get there if we are going to Builey?"

The driver glanced at Benjamin cautiously, and did not seem to see any danger, and then said:

"It's more than a hundred kilometers away from Builey, and if you want to go, I can take you with me, and I'm going to Buili too. ”

"Ah," Benjamin said, flattered, "thank you so much." ”

After saying that, beckoning the four girls to get into the carriage, Benjamin talked with the coachman, and learned that the coachman was a trader, and that he was carrying a shipment of goods to Builey to be sold. So the group arrived at the city of Buili just as the sun was about to set, and after thanking the merchant, and after paying their taxes and going into the city to find a place to stay, they came to Benjamin's room.

"What's next?" said Christine, "it's definitely too late to go to Yasore now." "On the way here, everyone already knew that half a year had passed in that space, and there was still a month before Dabi's time, and it would definitely be too late to go to Yasuore as originally planned.

"Then I'll use the teleportation array to contact the teacher first and see what the teacher has to say. Sophia said.

"Hmm. The crowd paid no attention and agreed with Sophia.

Soon Sophia and Christine teamed up to arrange a small teleportation array in the room, and after placing the magic crystal, Sophia teleported a crystal ball over, and the crystal ball recorded the situation of several people, Benjamin looked a little painful, and the magic crystal that was at least a fifth-level magical beast instantly turned into powder, and after changing a magic crystal, everyone was left to wait for Master Luke's reply.

It didn't take long for the light in the teleportation array to light up, and a crystal ball was transmitted, and everyone saw Master Luke say:

"His Majesty the Emperor has known what happened to you before, and Grand Duke Ziyue has also sent people to look for it, but there has been no news of you for a long time, so His Majesty the Emperor has decided to cancel this big competition after consulting with those professional guilds, and at the same time issued a ban to the whole country, prohibiting everything from the Holy See from appearing in the territory of the empire, and has also stationed heavy troops on the border, ready to start a war with the Holy See at any time. But the Holy See suddenly compromised with those professional guilds and punished a few bishops, saying that everything before was done by these people privately, and the pope and the top brass did not know about it, and the matter of Dabi was also proposed by the Kipan tribe, and the Holy See also paid tribute to the empire A batch of treasures, asking His Majesty the Emperor to take back the order, and there were also a group of ministers within the empire who suggested that the emperor cancel the ban. Later, the Empire received an invitation from the Pope and sent a mission to the Holy See Temple, which should have been within the borders of the Holy See. So now that it's over, you can go back to the academy and train outside. ”

Everyone didn't expect such a change to occur in the six months they left, and they didn't know what to do for a while, and after a moment of silence, Benjamin said:

"I don't believe that the Holy See will stop, maybe there has been some accident to stall for time. ”

"Well, I don't believe it either. Isabella said hatefully: "What the Holy See wants to do will not change, didn't we see that village before?"

"Oh, it's so troublesome, you can do what you say. Christine said indifferently.

"And what are you going to do?" asked Benjamin.

"Whatever, it's with you anyway. Sophia also learned from Christine, acting like she didn't care about anything.

"Yes, I have a soul contract with you, so what else. Christine also has a bit of a Benjamin attitude.

"Well, we're the same. Ruoqing and Isabella also nodded in agreement.

"......" Benjamin rolled his eyes and said depressedly: "Hey, you are all big nobles, princesses or something follow me, where can I afford it." ”

"Hee-hee, I don't care about this, I'm just following you anyway. Sophia actually went uncharacteristically, and pounced on Benjamin like a little girl and grabbed Benjamin's arm and said.

The three girls were also taken aback by Sophia's appearance, but they quickly surrounded Benjamin in the middle.

"Wow, all right," shouted Benjamin, "sit down and listen to me......

"Anyway, that's what you say. Christine said as she rubbed Benjamin's face with her hands, not caring for where Benjamin's head was on her chest.

"Alas~~~" Benjamin was a little crazy, "Anyway, we all need to improve our strength, otherwise we won't necessarily be so lucky if we encounter a situation like last time." ”

"Well, that's a good point. ”

"Then let's go and take the task, not only can we cultivate but also make money, otherwise we really can't afford to raise it......" Benjamin gasped and said.

"It was a good idea, and it was decided. Sophia said, and the other three girls also nodded in approval.

After a night of silence, early the next morning, several people came to the task release bar of the Professionals Guild, looking for a task that suited them......

"I searched for a long time, but there was no suitable one, really. Christine pouted, dissatisfied.

"Hey, come and see this. Ruoqing stood in front of the mercenary group's taskbar and pointed to a task.

"That's a mercenary mission. Benjamin didn't even think about taking on the task there, and said without looking.

"We can also form a mercenary group. Christine said nonchalantly.

Who knows, as soon as her words fell, the people around her burst into laughter,

"This beauty, otherwise you come to my mercenary group, I will let you be the deputy head of the regiment, you don't have to do anything, just serve me as the head of the regiment, hahaha~~~" A bearded man said with a smile, carrying a huge battle axe on his back, and a long scar on his face looked hideous.

"yes, my regiment is the same, hahaha. Another black-faced man who looked like a warrior said.

Christine turned her head to look at the bearded man, smiled sweetly, and said:

"Really? That's nice. ”

Seeing Christine's appearance, Benjamin knew it was going to be bad. Sure enough, after the big man heard Christine's words, he was stunned at first, and after reacting, he laughed and stretched out the calloused face to Christine's face.

"Boom", without the big man's hand stretched over, the whole person was blown out by a fireball, falling out five meters away, without waiting for everyone to react, Christine appeared in front of the big man lying on the ground in a flash, and the palm with fire slapped on the face of the beard, half of the beard was burned clean in an instant, and then Christine threw out a badge and said to the big man:

"If you cut off a leg or an arm, I will spare you from death. ”

When the badge fell, several people who were originally with this big man all stopped, and the other people who were watching the excitement also stopped shouting, and they all stared at the badge, and this bearded big man looked at the badge, with great regret and fear in his eyes, and knelt in front of Christine tremblingly and said:

"Your Highness, please spare your life......

If you don't beg for mercy, you can't do it, the badge that Christine threw out is the badge of the Grand Duke of the Purple Moon, which clearly shows her identity, these mercenary groups are all registered in the empire, how can you not know the status of the Grand Duke of the Purple Moon, and what she offended is actually the only daughter of the Grand Duke of the Purple Moon, or a fifth-level magician, no matter which one of them is not something that a small miscellaneous mercenary group leader can afford to offend.

"Do you want me to say it again?" Christine glanced at the audience coldly, so that the few people who originally wanted to come out to intercede for this big man were frightened and didn't dare to move again.

"Forget it," Benjamin came out and advised, now that there were so many people around, it was better not to make things too big.

Christine didn't speak, just turned her head to look at Benjamin, and gradually the frost melted, and her eyes were full of smiles, "Poof!", Christine didn't hold back, but the tense atmosphere before eased a lot,

"This guy is so bad, even more ruthless than me, and he's still pretending to be a good person, huh. Christine thought to herself that when Benjamin came out to stop him before, he told himself through the soul contract that he would use astrology to make this big man inhumane in the future, and Christine couldn't help laughing. At this time, he also understood Benjamin's intentions, so he put away his smiling face, pointed to the big man and said:

"If you appear in front of me again, you don't have to live. After saying that, he walked towards Benjamin and the others.

After such a fuss, a lot of people in the whole hall walked away at once, and those who didn't leave also hid from Benjamin and these people, Benjamin didn't care, and said to the four girls:

"Are you really planning to sign up for a mercenary group?"
