When they first heard this sentence, the remaining few people still looked a little wary. However, the mage who had just fought with Benjamin pulled them over and whispered a few words with a pale face. Immediately, their expressions changed slightly, they shook their heads and showed polite smiles.
"No... Master Benjamin, you'd better challenge others. It's boring to keep fighting with us, right?"
I don't know what the mage said to them, but judging from their looks, it seems that they no longer have the slightest desire to compete with Benjamin.
When Benjamin saw this, he didn’t force it.
In fact, these people also know Benjamin's strength and will not underestimate the enemy. It will take more effort to deal with him. Therefore, from a pure efficiency perspective, challenging others is indeed a good choice.
Saying goodbye to the complicated-looking "Viper" mercenary group, he embarked on the road of challenging others again.
There were quite a lot of mages present. Although not everyone liked fighting, the rule of exchanging silver coins for spells was still very attractive. After a while, Benjamin found a new opponent.
He felt that his opponent was not too strong, so he took that person with him and hurriedly started the competition.
But this time, when they entered the venue, the servant in charge of statistics began to look at Benjamin strangely.
"Why... is it your Excellency again?"
"What's wrong with me?" Benjamin looked innocent.
The servant hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and said, "No...it's nothing. Your Excellency, please go in."
The opponent Benjamin challenged this time showed a confused expression after hearing this somewhat inexplicable conversation. However, he had already accepted the challenge, so he didn't think much and followed Benjamin in.
And this time, Benjamin was too lazy to waste time. After the two of them stood still, he threw a few water bombs at them, forming forbidden magic water polo, trapping the opponent in confusion.
"This, what is this..."
Half a minute later, the smiling Benjamin and his confused opponent left the barbed wire fence one after another.
—The whole battle took less than half a minute from start to finish. The moment the opponent summoned the shield magic, it actually declared that Benjamin had won.
And when this mage, who was not even worth describing in detail, came to his senses and spoke, wanting to ask Benjamin what kind of magic he was using, Benjamin had already disappeared into the crowd, looking for his next target.
The mage stood there in a daze, his back looking a little sad.
The servant in charge of statistics beside him couldn't help but look at him sympathetically.
"I want to remind you, but... forget it, Master Mage, please don't be discouraged. This is just an exchange event. Don't lose your confidence in magic." The servant comforted him.
The mage turned back and glanced at the servant, with a touch of sadness in his eyes.
In this way, Benjamin's challenges came one after another. He roughly judged that the average level of these mages who came here to hug the "God of Wealth" was not particularly high, and they were completely within the range that the forbidden magic water polo could handle. Therefore, he also challenged more and more unscrupulously, a bit unstoppable.
Benjamin didn't know if this would be a bit too much, but... so what
It's time for him to gradually come out of his low profile.
In about the time it took others to complete six battles, Benjamin had already completed ten. The method of banning the magic water polo is originally beyond common sense, and others cannot expect it at all. Maybe some of these people have more abilities and trump cards, but they have no chance to use them.
—Unless their elemental affinity is far greater than Benjamin's, they can't do anything once trapped in a water ball.
After ten games, Benjamin also felt that he was being targeted by the servant in charge of statistics. On the fifth and sixth challenge, the servant still showed a strange expression, staring at Benjamin, silently muttering: "Why is it you again?"
By the seventh or eighth time, the servant was already numb.
"Oh, it's you again." His eyes were unfocused, and he opened the entrance without sadness or joy, not even bothering to take a second look.
Benjamin was also helpless about this.
Who told him to need a spell
Ten games, that is, ten consecutive victories. He exchanged a total of nine intermediate magic spells. The other reason was that the mage was too poor, so in the end he could only change to an existing elementary magic spell. However, Benjamin is not greedy, he is already very satisfied.
"Isn't this fucking greedy? If you play a dozen more games, you'll be able to write a book." The system complained helplessly.
"We can't fight more than a dozen games." Benjamin shook his head and replied in his mind, "Do you really think this kind of instant-kill battle is easy? The Forbidden Magic Water Polo consumes a lot of mental energy. Where can I get so much mental energy? "
At this moment, after ten games, he already felt mentally exhausted. Therefore, he planned to take a break first, wait and see how others played, and then consider whether to continue the challenge.
However, what he didn't expect was that after he stood still among the crowd, people began to gather around him after a short rest.
"Sir, excuse me, I just saw your competition. I would like to ask, what kind of magic did you use on that big water ball?"
"I started counting this mage half an hour ago. He seems to have won seven games."
"It's more than that...how do I remember that he was challenging from the beginning?"
"Who is this person? He looks nice..."
If a victory is just a pebble thrown into the water, then ten consecutive wins, and ten consecutive wins at a fast speed, is like a meteorite smashed into the lake.
Mages will always watch the competition, and after the competition is over, those defeated mages will also tell their companions the news. In this way, it spreads from one to ten and then to a hundred. In the blink of an eye, Benjamin, who had just been unknown, suddenly became the focus of the mages. As if the 10 million self-funded army had deepened, he instantly became the headline figure in this gathering of mages.
And when they see Benjamin in person...
"I seem to know his name. He seemed to have come over to chat with us a few times before. What did he say?"
"It seems like he is a mage from somewhere else. He just settled in Riley City."
"When did the mages outside become so powerful? Don't they all say that the level here is relatively high? Where did he come from..."
All kinds of whispers spread among the crowd, and at this moment, Benjamin didn't even have the energy to pay attention to them.
He has been surrounded by several groups of mages. Some are asking him what magic is used to move the water ball. Others are offering him an olive branch and want to recruit him into their mercenary group, and then ask him as a companion. What kind of magic is Benjamin's move
There is no way, the mage's desire to chase new magic, especially such a strange magic, is deep in his bones.
Benjamin was also helpless.
In a daze, he even felt like he was in a press conference.
Faced with these seemingly restrained questions one after another, he was not easy to answer. By telling him that the trick was water polo, he suspected that he might arouse public outrage. Therefore, he pretended to be aloof, doing Tai Chi with a smile, and did not reveal any clues except his own name.
Therefore, in the end, all these mages could remember was the name "Benjamin".
In fact, helping yourself become famous is one of the purposes of Benjamin's challenge. Now that the effect is so good, he naturally wants to take advantage of this opportunity to increase his influence as much as possible.
He wanted to let these local mages know that there was a mage who had just arrived in Riley City. His name was Benjamin, and he was not an economical person.
