Hearing this, although Jessica was a little confused, she was not too surprised.
"After the head is chopped off, the body is usually difficult to identify. They won't think that Johnny is dead now." She wrapped the head and put it away, "I have heard about that sect, so I will be careful. Their."
Although she looked like she didn't have to worry, to be honest, after visiting that neighborhood in person, Benjamin still felt that the sect didn't look like a fuel-efficient lamp.
Therefore, he couldn't help but give a few more reminders: "No matter what, you'd better be careful. I think those people are a bit strange."
Jessica nodded and said: "Don't worry, I know what to do. Besides, with the lessons learned from the Kingdom of Horli, Freden is very careful about the development of various religions. There are people above watching, that sect Don’t dare to make any big moves.”
After hearing this, although Benjamin was still a little worried intuitively, he couldn't say anything else.
She's a professional, leave it to her.
After saying goodbye to Jessica, he quietly left the place without anyone noticing.
He went to the Mercenary Association to ask how the mission to find Teacher Michelle went. As a result, the person at the front desk shook his head and said that there was no news yet and asked him to come back in a few days.
Benjamin had no choice but to return to the hotel.
after one day.
The time limit left for the mercenaries to tidy up the house has also come. In the west of Riley City, Benjamin and the mages in his team finally moved into a new home as they wished.
Spacious corridors, empty living rooms, rows of guest rooms... What appeared in front of the mages was such a simple and huge house. Each of them carried their luggage and walked into the door, looking around with uncontrollable excitement on their faces.
"Oh my god... there are so many rooms here, I can finally sleep on a bed by myself!"
"I love this room, the light is so nice."
"How much does it cost to buy such a big house..."
They ran around the house tirelessly, as if they were in some strange state of love. Even opening the empty warehouse was like a novel exploration, which surprised them endlessly.
Benjamin was inside. Even though he had seen this house before, he was infected by this atmosphere and couldn't help but laugh.
It’s finally settled...
Many times, a house of your own means far more than just a place to live.
A sense of security, a sense of belonging... When people feel tired, they think of a small bed that belongs only to them in the world. No matter how exhausted they are, they can always add a little more strength.
And, emotional factors aside, in all fairness, the house was a perfect fit for them.
After changing owners several times, and finally being renovated by mercenaries, there are a total of more than fifty rooms here. Although each room is not big, it has good lighting, so everyone will not feel uncomfortable living there. In addition, the rooms are relatively close to each other, a bit like the structure of a tube building. It will be very convenient for everyone to communicate with each other if they have anything to do.
In addition to the living room, Benjamin also made a plan. He set aside a room specifically as a study room and placed magic-related books in it so that mages could freely borrow them. He also set up a room as an alchemy and tried to find a way to get some. Better equipment, don’t let those two people fight for an iron pot to refine medicine all day long; there are also various other rooms: discussion room, meditation room, practice room...
Not to mention the fairly spacious backyard.
The backyard looked quite messy, filled with messy old furniture and overgrown grass. However, Benjamin believes that after sorting it out, he can open up a small battle field. If everyone has time, they can come and compete and practice their fighting skills, which is not a pleasure.
"Teacher Benjamin." Just when Benjamin was in the backyard, preparing to tidy up the place with magic, Wallis suddenly came over and called him.
"What's wrong?" Benjamin turned around and asked.
"This yard should also be ours." Wallis looked at the backyard and suddenly took out a small bulging bag from his pocket. "Some special plants needed for refining medicine can be grown artificially. Before. When I bought the magic potion, I negotiated the price for a long time, and finally the store gave me this bag of seeds, and we can plant them here and look at them."
Hearing this, Benjamin looked surprised and took the bag from the other person's hand.
He opened the bag and saw that it was filled with round yellow seeds with a magical texture, like rough stone beads.
Wallis also introduced: "This is the seed of the stone barrier flower. It is the best potion material to grow. The petals bloomed can be used to make defense-strengthening potions. Although we don't know how to refine this kind of potion yet, But if you harvest the raw materials, you can also sell them.”
After hearing this, Benjamin looked at the seeds in his hand and smiled with satisfaction.
"Plant, of course." He raised his head and glanced at the backyard in front of him. "The area here is quite large. We can open up a small area and try to plant one kind. Everyone can use the rest of the area. Come practice magic and hone your fighting skills."
Of course, if they really wanted to do it, they would have to make sure that the fights were not allowed to affect the fields where the seeds were sown, and they would also have to build a fence or wall for protection. Otherwise, this flower will definitely not grow.
Hmm... one more thing to do.
In this way, after telling Benjamin the planting method, Wallis turned back and tidied up the entire house with other mages. There are still basic furniture here, but they will definitely need to change the bed sheets and quilts. They are all mages and have their own pursuits in life. Whether the bed sheets should be red or green, or whether to hang a painting on the wall, they can do these things by themselves, and Benjamin will not worry about them.
He himself stood in the backyard, recited a spell, and started his magical cleaning.
The water vapor that surges like the wind is his most loyal and useful servant. The garbage all over the floor is like countless little birds, flying obediently and falling in groups into the trash cans in front of the houses. Abandoned furniture was also blown up and piled up by categories, waiting to be sold later at a low price.
Just like that, half an hour later, the entire backyard was completely new.
Seeing this, Benjamin smiled and nodded with satisfaction. Then, he used the Ice Breaking Technique to condense countless ice scythes and trim the weeds up to his knees. After clearing the weeds, the Ice Scythe turned into a hoe. Under Benjamin's command, a small field was soon cultivated in the corner of the backyard.
According to the planting method Wallis told him, Benjamin sown the seeds with water vapor, then returned to the house and found a mage who was better at earth magic.
The planting of stone barrier flowers is quite special and does not require watering, but they need to be given a wall-hardening technique every other day to make the soil where they are located become harder and harder. It is said that when the land becomes as hard as rock, it will bloom.
This growth method also amazed Benjamin.
Coincidentally, there are several people in the mage team who used to be farmers under the noble territory. After Benjamin inquired, a mage named George showed great interest in it. So Benjamin told him all the knowledge about planting.
Together with George, he used magic to build a small fence to protect the fields, and then handed everything over to George. He no longer had to worry about it, so he could feel relaxed and busy with other things.
—He has to prepare the rooms with special functions in the plan one by one.
Fortunately, while Benjamin was busy, other mages also cleaned the entire house, neatly stored Warcraft materials and other things in the warehouse, and specially sorted out the best room for Benjamin to live in. Otherwise, Benjamin really doesn’t know how long he will be busy.
-Although he was not tired, he felt very fulfilled.
After all, this is their future home.
In this way, a group of people were busy and time flew by. Throughout the day, Benjamin didn't even have time to care about how the "crows" were expanding. He was all focused on their new home.
Time has entered the night, and the house standing on this cold street has lively lights shining through every window, like the only light shining in a row of broken street lamps.
The bright lights stayed on until two or three o'clock in the middle of the night, and then they were reluctantly and gradually extinguished.
