At that moment, the entire church team raised their heads. They did not see the demonic figure, but saw a large hanging ice cone, encompassing thousands of people.
Under the clear sunshine, the ice cones were like countless diamonds, shining brightly above their heads. At a glance, there seem to be tens of thousands of them, even the sky is covered by them...
"How, how could it be?"
Holding the real list in his hand, the paladin's expression was one of astonishment.
This silent method of casting spells, this perfect timing of appearance... Although these people have never seen Benjamin, as the vanguard of the church in Carites, they have heard about it for a long time.
"Oops! It's that guy!" The priest panicked and shouted loudly, "Quick! Put up your shield and block this blow! There are so many of us, he can't do anything to us!"
The nearly one thousand team was actually mainly Paladins, with about a hundred priests remaining. Facing the dense icicles above their heads, these hundreds of priests could only chant spells in a hurry. As for the Paladin, apart from protecting key parts with a shield, there is nothing else he can do.
In such a panic situation, tens of thousands of ice picks fell towards them like raindrops from the sky.
boom! boom! boom!
It was like a fighter plane flying over in the sky and dropping countless missiles. The falling of such a large number of ice picks even caused the ground to shake. If it weren't for the remote location where the church team was marching, people nearby might have been alarmed, thinking it was an earthquake.
In such a short period of time, the priest had no time to activate the shield.
They can only rely on the life-saving cross on their bodies.
As a result, the ice pick fell, and broken ice and blood splashed all over the sky.
In the blink of an eye, the team that was well-trained just now turned into a mess. Fortunately for those priests, everyone was protected by a cross, and they summoned a shield under the protection of the cross, so they didn't suffer any injuries. But those Paladins... The ice cone came, and nothing could protect them.
Even though the armor was enchanted, each person would have to bear more than ten ice picks if divided equally. Therefore, no matter how strong the armor is, it will not be able to support it once it is plunged into the ground!
All the Paladins were wounded. Some people are lucky and agile, and only have some scratches on the back of their arms and the like. But some people are unlucky. After the armor is broken, the ice pick passes through it, entering from the upper opening and coming out from the lower opening. The bloody scene is like a living horror movie.
Such unlucky paladins are rare, but after this round, at least half of the entire team lost their fighting ability.
The remaining half raised his head to face the sky, but could only show an angry and helpless expression.
"You... you actually showed up here."
Seeing the figure appearing in the sky, the paladin captain drew his sword and said through gritted teeth.
Benjamin just shrugged and said: "I don't think you are suitable for conspiracy. When you have time, why not think about how to expand your followers, and don't always think about plotting against me."
In fact, it was a coincidence that he would attack the team halfway.
His original intention was to rush to the Kandela Mountains and join other mages. However, when passing by Glory, he got a piece of news from the king—the church secretly sent a team to arrest the mages in several cities in the north!
It's true that his mages have retreated, but... if the church dares to design him like this, he has to respond with something.
So, there was this scene in front of me.
All I can say is that this is the benefit of being well-informed.
Just as the priests were glaring at Benjamin, the sound-transmitting cross worn by the leading priest on his chest also sounded at the right time - the message had not been answered, so it was released to the public at this moment:
"The plan is cancelled. The enemy has discovered something is wrong. Come back quickly. Be careful on the road, there may be a sneak attack from the enemy!"
It was the bishop's voice coming from inside the cross. In this case, the two parties were confronting each other, and the sound echoed in the silent air, which was slightly embarrassing.
Benjamin couldn't help laughing.
This news... came too late after all.
"You should report it to your bishop, saying that the situation has changed and you may not be able to go back. The bishop can hear your voices before you die, and he will definitely be very pleased." He said lightly.
The leading priest heard this and suddenly calmed down at this moment.
"You're bluffing," he said, "We have more than a hundred spellcasters here, and you can't defeat them all no matter what, so you want to use these words to kill our fighting spirit."
"Really?" Benjamin put away his smile, "Then let's give it a try."
Along with his words, a large area of ice arrows condensed in the sky again. Benjamin clapped his hands, and the ice arrows hit the church's team like a meteor shower during the day.
As for the priests opposite, they also started singing at this moment.
All the holy light gathered together and turned into a huge golden shield, blocking their heads. The ice arrow hit it, sending out a violent wave of magic power, and the shield was shaken slightly. But in the end, the shield was still not broken.
-With the power of hundreds of people gathered together, it is indeed not that easy to shake.
The other paladins and priests were visibly relieved when they saw this.
It turns out... this ferocious mage is not that strong.
"The first team started to counterattack and used magic to hold him back. The second team treated the Paladins and prepared to retreat." The leading priest immediately gave instructions. The priests responded quickly and immediately started a new round of chanting.
Benjamin couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
Tsk... The taunting failed, and there was no way for these priests to fight against him in an idiotic way.
The other party is relatively rational and well-trained.
The priests' counterattack quickly came to him - hundreds of holy light bullets rushed towards his face, and the light alone made it difficult to open one's eyes, not to mention the fiery power.
However, Benjamin is not threatened by this level of magic.
Before he was hit, he controlled the water vapor and successfully avoided most of the holy light bullets, and then summoned a huge ice wall to block all the remaining attacks and bounce many of them back.
The holy light that bounced off the ice wall, together with Benjamin's newly summoned ice arrows, finally broke the golden shield above the priest's head.
Unfortunately, a new round of shields was immediately summoned by the priests.
"trouble… "
Benjamin was a little helpless.
Indeed, as the other party said, his ability has not reached that level yet. He couldn't easily break the magic cast by a hundred people with just a wave of his hand.
These one hundred priests can't do anything to him, and he can't keep these one hundred priests.
But... these priests shouldn't be too happy.
He still has a trick or two up his sleeve.
He summoned another ice arrow and shot it down as a smoke bomb to blind the eyes. Benjamin secretly took out the crystal ball from his package and quietly activated it.
