"You are not qualified to negotiate terms with me." Benjamin continued with a cold face, "Take me to see the person who can make magic props, or I will torture you half to death and force you to tell me the address, and then I will Go and meet.”
Suddenly, the four of them once again showed expressions of fear.
"No, don't..."
Seeing this, Benjamin continued to add fuel to the fire.
"The choice is in your own hands. Whether you want to die or live is up to you."
"I... forget it, we'll take you there!"
Finally, under Benjamin's verbal pressure, the four of them succumbed.
"... Before I take you there, can I ask one more question, what are you planning to do?" One person said cautiously.
"I won't treat talented people badly." Benjamin said slowly, "Magic props have been lost for a long time. If you can make something like this, you shouldn't hide in the desert of the East for the rest of your life."
"So... aren't you trying to take revenge by killing our whole family?"
Benjamin spread his hands: "Why should I kill your whole family for revenge?"
What the hell is the problem? Does he look so vicious
The four of them looked at each other in silence for a moment. Finally, a person said: "Then... okay, we will take you there. It's just that the place is far away from here. Do you want to go now?"
Benjamin nodded and added: "Before I go, I need to know something about this organization. Also, you four, I have to leave some restrictions on you."
As he spoke, he cut his finger and recited a spell. Following a strange fluctuation of the elements, he flicked it lightly, and a few drops of blood splashed onto the faces of the four people, and in the blink of an eye, it melted into their skin.
The four of them were so frightened that they scrambled again.
"You... what did you do to us?"
Benjamin shrugged and said: "It's just a curse. From now on, your lives will depend on my thoughts. If I don't untie you, your intestines will rot in a month and you will die in extreme pain. . So, don’t have those crooked thoughts, be obedient, and I will untie it for you.”
I have to say that curses are really a good choice as a means of controlling people.
After hearing what Benjamin said, the four thieves were all dejected and became extraordinarily obedient. Whatever Benjamin asked, they answered, no longer daring to change the subject procrastinatingly.
"What is the name of the organization behind you?"
"We don't have a fixed name. When it comes to the organization... we can't actually call it that. We call it the one in the desert. Those who live in the north are called those in the north of the desert. Those who live in the south are called those in the south of the desert."
"Then...how many of you are there in total?"
"There are many, hundreds of people, but we are not familiar with many of them. They are all mages, and they are not very talkative. At most, they will chat with the elders, and no one cares about us."
"Then how did you get together?"
"Everyone doesn't like to run outside, so they all hide in the desert. However, there are many monsters in the desert, so it is difficult to stay there. Finally, the elder made something that he said could drive away monsters and allow people to stay in the desert. Life. Everyone is very grateful to the elders for this, so they get together occasionally to help the elders."
In this way, after a round of questioning, Benjamin learned a lot.
First, he can rest assured. The other party's organization can't be called an organization, and its power can't be called a force. It's just a group of reclusive mages who are tied together by human ties and will not threaten him.
Secondly, the elder is the only one who knows how to make magic props. But according to these thieves, the level of the elders is very high. In their opinion, they are like gods and have unlimited creativity.
Therefore, Benjamin's interest increased.
He asked a lot of questions about the elders, but the thief didn't seem to know much. They only knew that the elder was a mage who lived in seclusion in the desert of the East. As for his name, his previous background, and where he learned his skills... these people knew nothing.
However, Benjamin didn't care.
We already know the exact location, so it won’t take too long to fly there. The other party sent someone to secretly change his robe. He was responsible no matter what. Even if he couldn't recruit people, he still had to get some new drawings.
What they can produce now is some textiles, and the varieties are still relatively single. They must find ways to further expand. He felt that magic props like those that could move instantaneously were very practical, and it was best for everyone in the team to have one.
In short, while the employee's probation period has just begun, so as not to cause any trouble, he should go over there quickly!
"I'll go back and prepare, and you should prepare too. We'll set off in half an hour." He said to the four of them.
The four of them had grimaces on their faces: "We haven't gotten the things yet..."
Benjamin was speechless: "Your elders want robes, aren't they just curious about our production technology? Now that I have passed, why do you still want to sell robes?"
The four of them were speechless.
When Benjamin saw this, he shook his head and exaggerated the power of the curse to them again, so that they would not think of escaping. Then, he turned around and left, going home to prepare his things for a long trip.
Soon, when he returned home, he didn't waste any time. After informing the other mages, he packed his luggage and came to the hotel again.
The four thieves, who had nothing to prepare, were waiting there obediently at this moment.
"That... Master Mage. If you want to save time, you can hire a carriage to go to Bianmo City. We know a carriage driver who can make it cheaper." One person suggested.
"No need." Benjamin shook his head and said, "Let's fly over."
"ah… "
While the other party was still in a daze, he recited a spell, and steam rose into the sky, carrying the five of them and flying dozens of meters into the air in an instant.
The wind howled past their ears, causing the four thieves to look frightened, and their hair looked like they were about to transform into Saiyans.
"F-Master Master..."
Benjamin smiled slightly and interrupted the other party:
"let's go."
With a whoosh, the five people in the air flew straight out like arrows. As Benjamin's strength improved, his flying speed also slowly increased. He could quickly catch up with the speed of the car, which was very convenient for traveling.
This was also the confidence that gave him the confidence to set off immediately.
"Master Mage, can you slow down a little?" The four people's wails came from behind.
Benjamin smiled and shook his head.
"Of course not."
After saying that, he speeded up again. Just like that, the five people were like meteors in the sky, flying towards Frieden's eastern border according to the navigation system.
Two days later.
There were no accidents along the way and they approached their destination smoothly.
To the east of Freden, the sky is gray and there is almost no sunlight, but there is still a hot breath in the air. From time to time, a gust of wind blew by, carrying fine gravel, causing pedestrians on the road to squint their eyes.
Occasionally, there are a few wilted trees growing on the bare ground. In the distance, there is a seemingly small town, like a piece of blue rock, standing quietly in a vast expanse of khaki flat land.
Benjamin was flying in the air and nodded when he saw this.
"Is Bianmo City ahead?"
As he spoke, he turned his head and looked at the four thieves behind him who were being held up by the steam. Unfortunately, at this moment, these four people had their eyes rolled up, their mouths opened wide, and faint foam appeared at the corners of their mouths. Their bodies were twitching, and they seemed unable to reply to his words.
Seeing this, Benjamin could only shake his head helplessly.
It is easy to get motion sickness when using water vapor to carry people. This kind of thing has been solved a lot after his strength increased. He can keep everyone stable in the air. However, after flying in the air for two consecutive days, they were still flying at such a high speed. Even if they didn't roll up and down like wontons, they were already a little confused.
His physique is really poor, he is worse than a mage. What kind of close combat is he doing
There is no other way. When we enter the desert, we have to rely on these four people to lead the way before we can see the elder. Therefore, Benjamin could only land in Bianmo City.
Five people flew down from the air. The passers-by couldn't help but look sideways, but they were not too surprised. It proved that there were still many mages here.
Maybe those mages who live in seclusion in the wasteland sometimes come here.
Benjamin looked around, trying to find a place like a hotel to wake up the four of them, and then continue on his way.
However, at this moment, a voice came from behind him, interrupting his search.
"You... who are you? What did you do to the four of them?"
Benjamin turned around in confusion.
Not far behind, I saw a girl wearing a veil, her eyes wide open at the moment, looking at the four thieves who were unconscious due to motion sickness, and said in surprise.
