"Teacher... something seems to have happened outside."
Benjamin was sitting in the hotel room meditating when Frank opened the door and came in and said hesitantly.
Hearing this, Benjamin had to leave the space of consciousness and return to reality. Listening to the bursts of noise coming from outside the window, he frowned and walked outside.
I saw groups of people running back and forth on the streets, and the atmosphere was solemn, as if they were fleeing. In addition, there is a large group of people carrying weapons and wearing simple clothes, who are a bit like bandits but far less vicious than bandits. They are running in a certain direction in groups at the moment.
Seeing this, Benjamin couldn't help but frown.
"What are they doing?" He couldn't help but open the window and pointed at those people and asked.
"It is said that they are gangsters who are roaming around this area. They are dissatisfied with the order to execute the queen and are revolting everywhere." Frank explained, "They had been wanted for a long time, but they came here for some reason and defeated the local gangsters." Guards. Now they are surrounding the mayor's house, as if they intend to take over the whole town."
… What the hell
Benjamin's expression was a little hard to explain.
To be honest, he had also heard that there were some spontaneous rebels in Freeden recently, who were dissatisfied with Stewart's rise to power and were causing trouble everywhere - after all, it is not easy for a general to sit on the throne.
However, he never thought that such a thing would happen to them.
And, what’s even more difficult to explain is, are those people really going to take over this town? Looking at their embarrassed looks, why do they look like they are conducting an earthquake drill? Can such a person occupy a small town
The rebels these days are too unprofessional.
"Teacher, what should we do?" Frank asked again when he saw Benjamin didn't speak for a long time.
"Let him go, it's none of our business." Benjamin shrugged and said, "They came for Freden's official regime, not for us. You see, they didn't come for the hotel. .”
Stewart was in trouble, and it was too late for him to be happy, so how could he help
"Then we will..." Frank asked again.
"It will be the same tomorrow." Benjamin waved his hand and said, "With so many mages of ours leaving, how can this ragtag group of people stop us? After the border, we will reach Karites. It doesn't matter even if our identities are revealed tomorrow."
"Oh well."
From the look of Frank, he seemed to want to get involved.
However, Benjamin did not want to cause more trouble, and at the same time he had to desperately prove to the system that this incident did not change their plan, so it could not be regarded as an accident, so that the system would not be complacent.
So in the end, Frank left with a somewhat regretful expression. Benjamin stayed in the room, but instead of continuing to meditate, he looked out the window.
He could see that the bandits who were trying to occupy the town... or the rebels, relying on their numerical advantage, tied the soldiers in the town together and threw them on the street corner. At the mayor's house, they forced their way in and tied a trembling old man out.
They put the knife on the old man's neck and began to say things like "you dog officials" and "to protect Frieden's honor", which was very similar to the kind of list of crimes before executing a prisoner.
However, no one in the town paid attention to what they said. They ran away and hid, just like ordinary bandits entering the village.
When Benjamin saw this, he couldn't help but shook his head.
What a rabble.
This level of rebellion obviously would not cause Stuart any trouble. In a few days, the army will be sent over, and these people will be harvested like straw men made of paper.
"Looking at this kind of scene, can you really bear to do nothing? Where is your sense of justice in your heart? Doesn't your conscience hurt?" In order to prove its prediction that an accident would happen, the system was still in Benjamin's mind. Zhong shouted desperately.
"of course not."
Benjamin replied in his mind.
However, some uneasy thoughts began to arise in his mind...
At this moment, on the streets of the town, the rebels in turbans gathered together, picked up the mayor, and held up their swords, as if they were ready to show the next scene to all the residents. The people in the town also hid in their houses and looked at these people in fear, wondering what they were planning to do.
"Don't, don't kill me... I'm just the mayor. I really don't know anything about the affairs in the capital..." The old man begged with some difficulty as he was being carried.
"What nonsense are you talking about? You didn't put up the notices in the town yourself! They are all a group of people, so there is nothing to defend!"
However, just when the leading rebel army raised the sword and was about to drop it, suddenly, a strong wind blew up from the plains. Then, in the clear sky, countless ice particles fell from the sky, like hail falling only on the heads of these people.
At that moment, everyone was stunned.
The incident of hail in the palace was widely circulated in Frieden, and many stories were told. Probably all people's imaginations are common, and the most widely circulated story is that this unseasonable weather symbolizes deception and injustice.
Therefore, seeing this scene, the mayor almost cried with excitement, while the rebels looked at each other with embarrassment as if they had been slapped in the face instantly.
"You, you see... I, I am really unjust..."
The face of the rebel at the head changed again and again. He suddenly snorted coldly, threw the person to the ground, and shouted to the surroundings: "Who is this person? Come out here, you pretender!"
Then, a sneer came from behind them.
Accompanied by a sneer, the hail and strong winds stopped abruptly. Then, countless ice bushes suddenly emerged from the ground like spreading plants, trapping hundreds of rebels like tentacles.
Suddenly, everyone was shocked.
"What, what's going on? It's... it's a mage!"
Although the rebels were powerful just now, in the final analysis, they can only show off their power in such a small town. Otherwise, they would have fought in Xuedi City long ago. How could they have taken advantage of a small mayor
Therefore, at this moment, almost all the rebels were controlled. They struggled desperately and used their knives to chop at the ice bushes. However, the ice bush was extremely strong, like claws emerging from the ground, locking them tightly and making it impossible for them to break free.
Soon, their shock turned to horror.
"Oops... Could it be that the people from the Mages Guild are guarding us here!"
They have also heard about the recently established Mages Guild in Freden. Probably because the Mage Freemasonry was destroyed, and the current resistance organization has disappeared, a mage named Steve stepped forward and established the Mage Guild, and soon gathered some people.
However, this guild was established too quickly and the timing of its appearance was very unexpected. Rumors are circulating that this Mages Guild is actually just a dog established by Stuart to help him clean up rebels everywhere.
… Are they really these people
Thinking this way, the rebels looked desperate.
They still know how much they have. It's okay to fight a small town with less than a hundred defenders, but once you encounter a powerful mage, there is only one end - death.
However, just when they were in despair...
"A bunch of idiots."
Benjamin came out of the corner, walking slowly and with a careless smile on his face.
"Do you know what you are doing? With your level and your approach, even if you work for a thousand years, it will not have any impact on Stuart's position. Instead, the corpse hanging at the city gate will help him establish his prestige. "I saw him strolling up to the leader, paused, and then said, "If you really plan to do something... I have some suggestions. Do you want to hear them?"
