Within the gas shield, the mercenaries were still digging holes to dispose of the corpses. Benjamin quickly returned to them and waved to them.
"Stop digging now. There is a situation outside." He said with a stern look on his face. "Another group of people may come over soon. We have to get rid of them first."
He casually killed the drunk guard who came over to urinate just now, and others might not notice. However, that guy actually took the wealthy businessman's wine glass. Once he died, things suddenly became troublesome.
Given the character of those wealthy businessmen, they would definitely be clamoring to get their things back. When the time comes, it won't just be a few guards who bump into their air mask.
Therefore, Benjamin could only strike first.
Catch your opponents off guard before they notice. As for the current battlefield, we can only deal with it later.
Upon hearing the new order, the mercenaries put down their shovels and cheered excitedly. It seems that they don't like digging holes here, but it's more fun to go out and kill people.
In this way, taking advantage of the darkness, they first got rid of the few guards who came out to look for someone, and then quietly moved towards the direction of the team.
However, as they gradually approached, the look on Benjamin's face couldn't help but change.
Through the water element induction method, he could clearly see that it was not one team that was gathering there to drink and have a party, but the remaining four teams. I don’t know what activities they are doing, but all the wealthy businessmen and guards who entered the woods are gathered together at this moment.
The remaining four mages were also sitting together, eating barbecue and talking about something.
Benjamin's heart skipped a beat.
This is trouble.
The four teams gathered together, and the number of people alone exceeded three digits. They were like a nomadic tribe, with tents all set up together. In this state, it would be very difficult for Benjamin to take action.
—You may have heard of a few people sneaking up on dozens of people, but have you ever heard of a few people sneaking up on hundreds of people
Not to mention that the number of mages on the other side far exceeds our own.
"Hey! Where's that kid? If you don't return my wine glass, I'll make it look good to you." At this time, a shout of abuse reached their ears from afar.
Hearing this, Benjamin took a deep breath.
Gotta play something big.
Time was running out, so he suddenly closed his eyes and entered the space of consciousness. Along with the low spell, he began to use the ice breaking spell one after another. Under the excitement of the water element, countless ice cubes began to emerge in the dark space.
Gradually, the ice cubes piled up bigger and bigger... Compared to the beginning, Benjamin's strength has made great progress and is enough to support such a huge amount of ice cubes.
However, looking at a small iceberg gradually piling up in front of him, he shook his head.
not enough. If we want to directly seal these hundreds of people here, this ice is far from enough.
He was so focused that he even summoned ice cubes while compressing and processing the summoned ice cubes to make them colder and harder.
But in reality, the mercenary following him could only see that as soon as Benjamin closed his eyes, there was no movement at all.
"This... Sir, are we still going up?" A mercenary couldn't help but asked in a low voice.
Benjamin didn't answer.
Suddenly, the mercenaries looked at each other.
Not far ahead, the "lost wine glass" incident continues to ferment. The wealthy businessman cursed and called a group of people again, asking them to find the guard who took away the wine glass.
If they continue in that direction, they will surely discover the truth.
"What should we do?" The mercenary Edmund glanced at Benjamin again, then turned to look at his other companions, "Otherwise... we sneak over and kill the newly sent group of people?"
In his opinion, killing this group of people would at least delay the situation a little longer.
Benjamin still closed his eyes tightly and showed no reaction. Seeing this, the other mercenaries thought about it and nodded, agreeing with the idea.
"Six people have gone over, is that enough?" Edmund continued, "Leave two people here to guard the Lord and see what the Lord orders next."
The other mercenaries also nodded.
Just as they were making plans and preparing to take action, they were finally interrupted by a voice.
"Don't worry about them."
Benjamin opened his eyes and glanced at the mercenaries. Although he has entered the conscious space, the system can still report to him what happened in reality.
In this case, the mercenaries' reaction satisfied him quite a bit.
However, that is no longer necessary.
"You guys will act as bait again, take this wine glass and lure everyone out of the camp." Benjamin said as he took out a beautifully shaped crystal wine glass and handed it to Edmund.
—This was something he took out from the drunken guard before.
Edmund was stunned. Looking at his expression, it was obvious that he didn't know what Benjamin was thinking, but he still nodded without hesitation.
He took the wine glass and slowly walked towards the bonfire camp not far away.
Benjamin looked in the direction of the camp, feeling the rapid consumption of his mental energy, and couldn't help but take a deep breath. The preparations are almost complete, now it depends on how the situation will develop.
And in the camp.
"Why do you feel like there are a little less people this time?" A wealthy businessman complained, "There are obviously more than 20 prey, but it's been a day, how come we haven't seen any of them?"
"Really?" Another wealthy businessman laughed loudly, took out two money bags and waved them in front of the other party's eyes, "Our team has already killed two of them, you can't do this."
The wealthy businessman shook his head and looked at the two jingling money bags, obviously very angry.
However, he couldn't help but stand up and shouted angrily: "What's wrong with you people? I can't even find my cup. That thing is so valuable. If it's really gone, you won't be able to afford it in your lifetime!"
"Cup? Is this what you're talking about?"
However, at this time, a mocking question came from the edge of the camp, attracting everyone's attention.
Several wealthy businessmen were also stunned.
I saw Edmund's figure slowly walking out from behind the dimly lit tree. He stared at the wealthy businessmen in the center of the camp, stretched out his hand, and in his hand was the beautiful crystal cup.
But the strange thing is that the whole camp seemed to be stunned and silent.
Probably, they never imagined that their "prey" would suddenly run in front of them, right
"That...that's my cup! Who allowed you to bang it with those lowly hands?" The wealthy businessman rubbed his eyes, looked at it twice, and suddenly became furious and shouted loudly.
When Edmund heard this, he laughed a few times, spit into the cup, and then threw it away.
boom!
There was a crisp sound, and the wine glass hit the ground, turning into debris all over the ground in the blink of an eye.
Everyone was stunned.
"You... you..." The wealthy businessman pointed at Edmund, his fingertips were trembling, his face was full of disbelief, but he was so angry that he couldn't even speak.
Edmund showed no fear, showed a ferocious expression, and made a provocative gesture towards everyone.
Then he turned and ran.
The others were stunned again.
"Hurry! Chase after me!" Another wealthy businessman reacted and shouted loudly, "This kid is too arrogant, I must make him look good!"
At his command, the guards gathered and were about to give chase. However, those mages realized something was wrong and reminded: "Don't chase him yet... It's a bit strange. How could his hand heal so fast? There is something fishy about this."
Suddenly, the others' movements slowed down. Several wealthy businessmen also showed some strange expressions when they heard this.
However, this time, it was Benjamin's voice that interrupted them again.
"Are you realizing it now? It's too late."
As the temperature plummeted, hundreds of people in the camp raised their heads together. Above their heads, the dark sky disappeared, replaced by endless blue-white ice, reflecting their frightened faces.
