The moment he heard the truth, Benjamin felt a headache.
The front foot was still writing to him saying that the plan was going well, but when the back foot was waiting for him to come over, things turned upside down. He really wanted to grab Dick's collar and ask everything clearly, but... in the current situation, it was obvious that there was no room for that.
Priests and purifiers continued to appear in the distance, and they were all rushing towards this direction at extremely fast speeds. Some of them had even started singing. The magic power fluctuations came from afar, and the stagnant atmosphere before the war suddenly calmed down Benjamin's mood at that moment.
A battle is inevitable.
He took a quick look around.
Of these people... Grant wasn't there.
Realizing this, Benjamin suddenly felt much more relaxed. Although he still didn't quite understand the situation, he could handle these pursuers.
"While I'm taking care of these guys, think about how to explain all this."
After saying these words, Benjamin ignored Dick who was still trembling, flew into the air alone, and rushed towards the group of about a hundred church men.
Flying broken ice continued to condense from around him, and then poured down on the enemy like heavy rain!
At that moment, both the priest and the cleaner had a look of astonishment on their faces.
"Wait a minute... That's the dean of the Magic Academy! The information is wrong, why is he here?"
"We can't fight him head-on. Go back and inform His Majesty the Pope!"
Their orderly formation fell apart in an instant, and the cleaners reined in the saddle as quickly as possible, trying to turn the horse's head. The priest in the air also turned around hastily, without the slightest intention to fight forcefully.
Benjamin frowned slightly when he saw this.
Didn't these people expect him to show up
"Want to run? It's not that easy!"
In any case, he has no intention of letting go of these church men. Once the news leaks, who knows what will happen? It’s better to leave everything to him!
Benjamin was undoubtedly the fastest among everyone present, and he quickly approached the church's team. Tens of thousands of broken ice condensed from around him, as if hundreds of machine guns were firing at the same time, and the broken ice flew out in all directions.
Those people in the church felt numb when they saw it.
They ran away while holding up their shields. However, the blasts of broken ice are so dense that it is difficult for a single layer of holy light barrier to block them all. But in the blink of an eye, countless Cleaners fell off their horses, and their armors were riddled with holes. Priests spouting blood kept falling from the sky, like a rain of blood.
Not far behind Benjamin, Dick was hiding behind a stone, and he was stunned.
"It's... so terrible."
The escape process was very hasty, and he didn't have time to steal a chamber pot from the hotel. At this moment, he was empty-handed and felt very uneasy. But looking at the bloody massacre in the distance, Dick felt cold all over.
This was the first time he saw Benjamin take action, and it was only then that he truly realized what the good-for-nothing he had pointed at his gun had become.
No wonder... no wonder his father would say that to him.
Dick swallowed subconsciously, but found that his throat had become dry and he could hardly speak. He could only hide behind the stone and cling to the stone wall, as if this was the only thing that could stop him from shaking so badly.
After Benjamin finishes killing those church people, will he come over and kill him too...
Dick couldn't stop thinking like this.
"No... probably not..." He could only comfort himself in a low voice.
"No way, have you thought about how to explain all this?"
I don’t know how long it took, Dick was still dazed, and Benjamin’s voice suddenly came from above his head. Dick was startled and subconsciously stood up from the stone.
He looked over there and found that all the church's pursuers had their bodies strewn all over the ground, and not a single one was left. Benjamin was flying not far in front of him, looking at him with his head tilted.
This...how long has it been
Dick opened his mouth wide, but no words came out.
"Hey, are you talking?" Benjamin frowned when he saw this, "A few days ago, you wrote to me saying that the plan was going well, but you just needed me to help encircle Grant, right? What happened, and why did it become like this? Like this now?"
Dick took a deep breath and said, "That... that's false."
"Fake? What do you mean?"
"...Five days ago, for some reason, the Pope noticed all this and killed all our internal priests before we could take action." Dick lowered his head and said slowly, "Father tried his best to kill me. Sent out from the royal capital, the others... all died."
Benjamin asked: "What about the letter?"
"My father sent it before the Paladins surrounded the Foer family." Dick hesitated and said, "He said... The only one who can save me now is your Excellency."
Benjamin shook his head when he heard this.
"...So, the content in the letter is all false, just to trick me into coming to save you?"
Dick shook and nodded with some fear.
"There is no so-called 'code for the local magic forces in the kingdom'. Is that just to ensure that I will show up? Is it something you made up?"
Dick continued to nod, his expression becoming more frightened.
Benjamin rubbed his head, speechless and didn't know what to say.
What a good supporter. Aix, an old fox, would not forget to plot against Benjamin until his death. He tricked him all the way to the Kingdom of Horli, forcing him to rescue Dick.
After all, everyone else is here, is it possible that Dick can be left alone and the church be proud of it
It’s really…
The plan that was finally put together ended up like this. Although Benjamin had always felt that the possibility of failure was high, the result was a bit too bad after such a disastrous defeat, the Foer family was directly destroyed, and the instability within the church was also eliminated.
Grant... seems to have become more capable than he imagined.
"Dean, Mr. Dean, we didn't mean to deceive you... Please, please don't kill me!" Seeing Benjamin's delay in speaking, Dick probably thought he was angry. He was so frightened that he almost fell to the ground and shouted with a trembling voice. the voice begged.
Benjamin looked helpless when he saw this.
"Kill you? Will killing you do me any good?"
"That... can... vent your anger?"
"Okay, okay, I won't kill you." Benjamin waved his hand impatiently, motioning for the other party to stand up, and asked, "What exactly has Aix arranged? He went to great lengths to trick me into coming here to save you. Escape abroad, and then what?”
Dick raised his head: "I, I don't know."
Benjamin crossed his hands and looked puzzled: "Does the Foer family have no property abroad?"
Dick thought for a moment, took out a strange badge from his pocket, and said, "That... my father asked me to escape to Lant City in Freden, and then give this thing to the owner of the local tavern."
Benjamin nodded when he heard this.
Fortunately, there are indeed arrangements. In this case, as long as he rescues Dick from the Kingdom of Hori, he doesn't need to worry about the rest.
"Let's go, I'll take you out of this hellish place." Benjamin raised his hand, and the steam lifted Dick up, and the two of them flew east together, "Your Foer family owes me a huge debt this time. After you go abroad, I will settle the matter with you slowly."
