"What should we do now?" asked Christine when everyone was recovering.

"We can't take the big road to the imperial capital anymore," Benjamin thought for a moment before continuing: " From here to the imperial capital, if you take the main road, there are churches in two of the cities, and the archbishop who escaped before will definitely inform them of our situation, if we take the big road, it is equivalent to throwing yourself into the arms; but if we take the small road, the possibility of encountering the thief group is relatively large, with our current strength, the smaller one is better to say, if we encounter a large thief group, it is estimated that it will not be much better than the people who meet the Holy See, so which way do you think we should go?"

"Of course, it's a small path, and I don't want to meet anyone from the Holy See again. Besides, I've never seen a group of thieves like when I'm so big, just let me see it, and let them know how good I am, hum!" Christine said without hesitation, looking afraid that the world would not be chaotic, no wonder she was so aggrieved in the previous battle with Crook.

"It will look better when the thieves take you away, hehe. Isabella and Christine are already in a hot fight, and when they hear her say this, how can they be called "best friends" if they don't take the opportunity to tease her at this time?

"Hee-hee, Sister Isabella, you are much more beautiful than me, you must have caught you first when the time comes, tsk, look at your pair......" Before she finished speaking, Isabella pounced on her to cover Christine's mouth, and Christine did not show weakness, stretched out her hands and grabbed Isabella's chest, and the two instantly hugged each other, this kind of "fragrant" scene is still more of a test of a man's concentration......

"Ahem," Benjamin couldn't help but be a little embarrassed when he saw this, and hurriedly turned his head to interrupt the two of them, "Don't make trouble, you have to make a decision quickly, it's dawn soon, so let's leave here early, who knows if that Crook will come back." ”

After hearing Benjamin's words, the two stopped messing around, and after some deliberation, the four decided to take the path, and if they could get away from the city of the first church if they hurried as soon as possible during the day, they would decide how to go. So, a few people no longer hesitated, and after sending the coachman back, the four of them also headed in the direction of the imperial capital.

......

"After the dense forest ahead, we will be near Aesop City, let's rest first. Christine pointed to a dense forest in front of her, panting and said, in order to hurry up, she has been using the wind movement technique for everyone for half a day, although it is only a level of magic, but this morning has been constantly used, plus several people have different physiques, we must pay attention to replenishing at any time, magic and mental power are also consumed a lot, at this time the face also looks a little pale, and beads of sweat are constantly oozing from the forehead.

"Then take a break. Seeing that the dense woods in front of him seemed to not even allow sunlight to penetrate, Benjamin nodded and agreed to rest, it is better to recover in case of emergency.

At this moment, a roar of a demonic beast came from the woods, and then I saw a young man dressed in black running out of the woods, shouting at Benjamin and the others as he ran:

"Quick...... Hurry up here...... Run!"

"Be careful, everyone. Benjamin took out his bow and arrows and gave them a command.

"Run, what are you doing stupidly. The young man in black had already run in front of everyone at this time, watching Benjamin take out his bow and arrows, and he didn't look ready to escape, and hurriedly persuaded: "Don't be stupid, I can't deal with that big guy, what can you do as an archer?"

"Hmph, forget if you don't have the ability, you dare to underestimate others. After glancing disdainfully at the boy in black, Christine took out her magic wand and took a step forward to Benjamin's side.

"You don't believe it, do you, then wait and see," the young man in black was ridiculed by Christine, and his heart was not very happy, so he simply didn't run away, standing with everyone, looking like he was waiting to watch the play.

"Here, be careful. As soon as Benjamin's voice fell, everyone looked from the direction of the sound coming from the woods, and now everyone finally knew why the young man in black had fled. It turned out that what appeared outside the woods at this time was a skeleton war horse, with a skull wearing a black helmet hanging on one side of the horse's head, two black-red flames in the eye sockets kept beating, and the mouth was still open and closed as if speaking, and on the horse's back was a headless skeleton that was two meters high, and the white bone sword in his hand was as long as a human knight's spear, which was in stark contrast to the jet-black body.

"Headless Horseman?" Isabella exclaimed, "how can there be a Headless Horseman here?"

"Hehe, now you know why I ran away with my life. The young man in black looked like he was watching the fight and shouting cheers, and he didn't think it was a big deal to see the excitement, which made everyone's teeth itch with hatred.

But everyone couldn't refute him, everyone knew what kind of existence the headless horseman was, with his own few people, he really couldn't beat it, and when he was hesitating and didn't know what to do, Ruoqing suddenly said:

"Wait a minute...... After saying that, he actually got up and walked in the direction of the Headless Horseman.

"Ruoqing, what are you going to do?" Benjamin reached out to stop Ruoqing, but Ruoqing jumped out like an arrow from a string, and in a breath he was already in front of the Headless Horseman.

"Huh?"

"Sister Ruoqing!"

Benjamin took care of a lot at this time, took out his short sword and ran towards the headless horseman, although Ruoqing didn't see Benjamin rushing over, but he could also sense it, just when he wanted to turn around and stop Benjamin, he had already seen Benjamin's jumping figure,

"Stop!"

Ruoqing hurriedly exited to stop it, but where was there still time, Benjamin had already raised his short sword and jumped up and slashed down in the air, and the Headless Horseman did not make any move after Ruoqing came, but still stopped there, and at this time, when Benjamin's short sword slashed down, the Headless Horseman had already moved, raising his bone sword to block Benjamin. And when Benjamin was attacked by the headless horseman's crotch, he found that it seemed to be just a simple blocking action, but the power was really not small, and he was instantly shocked out, and before he could adjust himself, the headless horseman had already rushed to his side, and the huge bone sword came straight to his chest, Benjamin hurriedly struggled to use his short sword to push the bone sword away, but the instant dash of the skeleton war horse and the headless horseman's own strength, Benjamin was in a hurry, where could he get rid of it, and barely let his heart hurt, but he was still stabbed in the shoulder, and the pain of drilling his heart spread all over his body, and the hand holding the short sword was also torn apart because of the previous struggle to pull the bone sword, blood continued to drip from the hilt, and the whole arm was also temporarily numb from the shock, and his arms were damaged with just one move, Benjamin also knew the horror of the pure power of the Headless Horseman at this time. At this moment, the Headless Horseman jumped off his horse, as if frightened by something, and fell to his knees in front of Benjamin, shaking incessantly, even the skull hanging next to the horse's head......

......

Everyone was stunned by the strange scene in front of them, no one saw Ruoqing's slight smile, Benjamin also sat on the ground and was overwhelmed by the situation in front of him, it was surprisingly quiet at this time, if it weren't for the rustling of the wind and the clicking sound of the skull, it really seemed as if time had stopped at this moment. I don't know how long it took, but the young man in black spoke first:

"It's ...... It's a ...... What's the ......?"

Everyone reacted from the shock and hurriedly ran to Benjamin's side, but at this time, the headless horseman seemed to be completely unaware, and still knelt in front of Benjamin and kept shaking, and anyone who saw this scene would feel a little funny.

"What the hell is going on?" the young man in black asked again. It's just that everyone doesn't know the reason, so how can they answer him, "Hey, you guys are silent, what are you all looking at stupidly." ”

"Shut up," Ruoqing said to the young man in black as if she knew what the young man in black was going to say next, threatening, "If you speak up again, I will let him beat you." With that, he pointed to the Headless Horseman who was kneeling on the ground. The black-clothed young man was choked by Ruoqing, looked at the Headless Horseman, and his body shook involuntarily, but he really stood aside obediently. Ruoqing ignored him, walked to the headless horseman's side, put his right hand on the headless horseman's shoulder, and whispered in his mouth that he didn't know what to read again, at this time Ruoqing's right hand was flushed, and the headless horseman who was originally kneeling on the ground no longer trembled under this red halo, and the flames in the eyes of the skull hanging on the side of the horse's head no longer beat, but the original black-red flames turned blood-red.

At this moment, the Headless Horsemann slowly moved back a little before he stood up, turned and stood with his sword, as if he were guarding Benjamin at this moment. Ruoqing saw this scene, smiled with satisfaction, and said:

"Well, now he's our guard. ”

"What?" everyone was just stupid, how did this trick change, you guys really know how to play it in the city.

"Are you a black magician?" the voice of the black-clothed young man was full of murderous aura at this time, and he looked at Ruoqing and asked.

"Of course not. Ruoqing glanced at the young man in black.

"Then how do you control him?" the young man in black asked in a fierce voice.

"Why should I tell you?" Ruoqing replied without showing weakness.

"What's the matter with her, the Dark Mage?" said Christine, "If she's a Black Mage, with my fourth-level mage abilities, can I not sense it?"

"Oh?" the young man in black softened his tone after hearing Christine's words, "I don't know. ”

"Don't you see what I'm holding?" Christine's temper is famous in the empire, seeing that his partner is said to be a black magician, how can he not be angry, can't he be a fourth-level magician who can't tell if Ruoqing is a black magician?

"How do I know? maybe...... Maybe you're a priest of the Holy See. The young man in black also knew that his tone was not good before, but he still refused to show weakness.

"You are the priest of the Holy See, and your whole family is a priest of the Holy See. When Christine heard the young man in black say that he was a priest of the Holy See, she was even more angry, and she scolded directly, and the magic wand in her hand began to fluctuate with magical power.

"Oh, I said the wrong thing, okay, don't do it. Seeing this, the young man in black hurriedly apologized, for fear that if he was slow to speak, the magic over there would burst out.

"Okay, okay, don't make any noise. Benjamin was also a little helpless, these three women were really ...... "Tell me, who are you, how did you lure this guy out?"
