At that moment, Benjamin was shocked and his hair almost stood up.
Ignoring the king standing aside, he suddenly took steps and rushed out of the camp. At this moment, the general was still walking back, and the "messenger" had just taken out the cross, and the soldiers on the side didn't even realize what was happening.
The general couldn't help but be a little stunned when he looked at Benjamin who suddenly rushed out.
"Why are you… "
Benjamin shouted while running: "General, be careful!"
Looking through the general's shoulder, he could clearly see that the priest was already holding a cross, pointing it at the general, and seemed to be reciting something. The few soldiers over there didn't even understand the situation. They just looked at Benjamin blankly and had no intention of stopping the priest.
can not wait anymore…
Benjamin couldn't care about anything else and could only take action first.
With a low spell, a huge water ball suddenly fell from the sky and hit the priest dressed as a messenger!
At that moment, the priest also looked a little panicked. He obviously did not expect Benjamin's appearance, but after a brief hesitation, he put away the cross, turned around and ran away.
Benjamin's face darkened.
Want to run
He waved his right hand, and the water balls in the sky exploded like fireworks, turning into a curtain of water, covering a small area in front of him.
The priest was in it, so he couldn't avoid it.
Therefore, he stopped, turned around and started singing, as if he was preparing to confront Benjamin. However, Benjamin sneered and shook his head, and the large water curtain suddenly closed in, like a fishing net that had found its prey, and the priest was caught in it.
The life-saving cross on the priest's body shattered and turned into a shield, blocking the water flow. But Benjamin also controlled the water curtain and formed a huge water ball again, wrapping the priest in it.
The moment the water ball took shape, a muffled groan came from it.
The priest's chanting was interrupted by the Forbidden Demon Water Ball, and he looked a little stunned.
"you… "
Benjamin just shook his head.
"Give up, you can't run away anymore."
The whole process was over in more than ten seconds. The soldiers on the side, the general who turned around, and the king who looked out from the cracks in the tent... before they even realized what happened, Benjamin had already restrained the priest. Stopped.
Then, the soldiers looked a little panicked.
"You... who are you? How did you rush out of the general's camp?"
Benjamin also felt a headache when he heard this. The situation was a little complicated. He was a person whose portrait was on the wanted poster, and he suddenly rushed out and fought with the "messenger" sent by Glory for a while - who knows what these ordinary soldiers would think
I'm afraid there will be a misunderstanding...
Fortunately, the general spoke at this moment: "This is the guest I invited, so don't worry about it."
The soldiers came back to their senses and turned to look at the priest who was trapped in the water ball: "But... what to do with this envoy? He is the person sent by Glory!"
The priest in the water balloon also shouted, pointing at the general's nose and cursing: "How dare you harbor fugitives! As a general of Carites, don't you even listen to His Majesty the King's orders?"
When the soldiers heard this, they looked at the general with doubts. The surrounding soldiers also gathered around, and it felt like more and more people were gathering.
Suddenly, the general frowned.
The scene before him made him feel troubled.
"Shut up, what kind of messenger? How dare a mere assassin say that he is His Majesty's messenger?" Benjamin immediately said loudly, "This man just wanted to attack the general. If it weren't for me, the general would definitely have lost his life. "
But the priest refused to give up: "You are talking nonsense! You are obviously the most wanted gangster, but you still dare to show up. Soldiers, if you catch this man in Glory, you can get your Majesty's highest reward!"
Under his identification, some soldiers looked at Benjamin and seemed to recognize him.
"It seems...that he is really the bandit leader."
"What exactly is going on… "
The soldiers were talking a lot.
Suddenly, Benjamin also realized the seriousness of this problem. This army was led by the general, yes, but it was also subordinate to the king and accepted the command of Glory. If the general's prestige is not high enough for the soldiers to listen to him at all costs, and the soldiers are deceived by the fake king's orders, the current situation may even lead to a mutiny.
trouble…
He should have changed his appearance and rushed out.
"How dare you appear in front of me, the cultist who has usurped power?" In this case, the king had no choice but to walk out of the tent wearing a crown and fine clothes.
Suddenly, everyone's expressions changed again.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty?"
The general reacted quickly and immediately shouted: "Hurry up and salute His Majesty the King!" The soldiers were a little confused, but they still knelt down on one knee in confusion and saluted the King in unison.
The priest's eyes widened and he stared at the king, as if he wanted to rush out of the water balloon and kill the king.
"Get up, you are all my good soldiers." The king nodded, and then looked at the priest in the water balloon.
It's his time to shine.
Therefore, he continued: "As you can see, this so-called messenger is actually a spy of the enemy country. The palace is now controlled by the church, and a substitute has been pushed onto my throne. But the mages who protect me are He was labeled as a gangster by them and is wanted throughout the country."
Hearing this, the soldiers looked at each other and suddenly fell into silence.
The king glanced at the crowd and continued: "And now, Icol has invaded our doorstep, but the church doesn't think about how to resist foreign enemies. Instead, it tells you to stand still. Soldiers, you really want to watch the enemy invade us bit by bit. land? Would the King of Carites really give such an order? No, I would never do that."
Suddenly, the expressions of the soldiers changed again.
Rumors about the real and fake king had been widely circulated some time ago, and they had heard about it. As soldiers, of course they chose to believe Glory and support the "orthodoxy" in the palace. However, when the king who was labeled a "liar" came to them, and it seemed that even the generals were on the side of the "liar", they had to start to re-examine those rumors.
And... more importantly, Ikol's invasion.
The king spoke to their hearts.
The war has begun, but they can do nothing, let alone know whether their relatives back home will be affected. This is definitely something they cannot bear. If they had not sworn an oath to the king, they might have all petitioned and gone to the front line to fight.
The church's instruction to "stand still" suddenly made the soldiers suspicious.
Therefore, no matter which king is the real one, at least... the words spoken by the king in front of them will not make them feel wrong.
"No, don't listen to this liar, he is not the king! What do they know?" The priest in the water polo still did not give up and shouted loudly, "Your Majesty is in the palace at the moment. Standing still is only part of the counterattack plan. They have no idea. don't know!"
"Really?" Benjamin laughed a few times and suddenly said, "Listen, everyone, is this person's accent a bit strange?"
"You...what do you mean?"
Benjamin asked: "You are not a native of Carrites, are you?"
"I-of course I am."
Benjamin smiled, shook his head, and said to the soldiers around him: "You all heard it, right? This is a person from the Kingdom of Hori, how could he be an envoy of Glory? No need to ask, he is a spy sent by the church. "
Following his words, the soldiers also noticed something was wrong, and their eyes gradually became hostile when looking at the priest.
"No! You have to believe me..."
The priest was still yelling, but Benjamin didn't want to listen anymore.
He aimed his right hand at the priest and suddenly made a fist. The water ball surrounding the priest also rioted at that moment, turning into a prison of water. In a few seconds, the cross on his body was exhausted, shattering the barrier, and completely submerging him.
