The bishop turned his head in astonishment.
I saw three vague figures walking out of the corner of the village in the night, one tall and two short. They stopped not far away, smiling and looking at the church people with slightly joking eyes.
The priests couldn't help but stop their attack.
"That is… "
After carefully identifying them, the bishop was extremely shocked to find that opposite them were the three prisoners they had captured on the boat - the three were from a cult, and they made the octopuses that besieged their ship retreat. In the end, they were tricked by the bishop into boarding the boat, and they were forced to leave the ship. Three young people on the route.
Like a bucket of cold water poured over his head, the bishop's excitement disappeared in an instant. At that moment, he even thought he was hallucinating, and the right hand holding the cross suddenly started to shake.
Why are these three people here
They were obviously imprisoned on the ship, and their mental powers were blocked with special materials. Logically speaking, they could not use any magic and could only squat in the cell in the cabin.
Because the situation was so weird, the bishop couldn't wrap his head around it at that moment. A rather bad premonition came over him. He didn't know what was happening, but... something was wrong.
What happened to the fleet
The bishop was so frightened, not to mention the other priests present. Seeing that they were about to purify all the heretics, things suddenly changed at this time. The most unlikely person appeared, and everyone fell into silence at this moment because they were too shocked.
The villagers who had escaped death froze on the spot, looking at the three people blankly, a little confused.
"What are you doing standing there? What a surprise?" Seeing that everyone in the church was stunned and didn't say anything, Benjamin chuckled and said, "You don't have to be too surprised, the real surprise is yet to come."
As he spoke, he summoned a water balloon and slapped it on his face. Under his subtle control, the water flow instantly washed away all disguises.
The face that all the priests remembered was revealed.
"It's... it's you!"
When the bishop saw this, his expression changed again and again. From disbelief at the beginning, to doubt and hesitation later, in the end, that pale face even started to turn blue.
"Yes, it's me." Benjamin nodded and said casually.
At that moment, the bishop seemed to have suffered some huge humiliation. He pointed at Benjamin's nose and shouted angrily: "You... shameless guy, how dare you set us up!"
"Thank you, I'm just so shameless." Benjamin smiled, "What? Are you angry? Weren't you very proud when you put the three of us in the cell?"
The bishop's face darkened when he was told that, and his face instantly turned from white to green.
"... Do you really think we will be afraid of you if you come out alone?" He seemed to hate Benjamin so much that every word came out from between his teeth.
Benjamin narrowed his eyes: "Are you going to fight me?"
The bishop snorted coldly, suddenly raised the cross high, and shouted: "With the holy object in hand, everyone listen to my instructions and wipe this sinful mage completely from the world!"
Dozens of priests also clasped their hands.
Then, in the next second, they turned around in unison, not caring about eradicating overseas sects, and fled in all directions.
“…”
Looking at the bishop who ran away frantically after saying the cruel words, Benjamin was speechless for a moment.
However, he did not intend to let go of any of the priests present.
The water element field opened, Benjamin flew into the sky, and a heavy snow suddenly fell in the dark night sky. The villagers huddled together and raised their heads in shock, only to find that the falling snowflakes had extremely sharp edges.
The snowflakes passed lightly, passing over every priest who fled in a hurry. The life-saving cross was triggered silently, the shield shattered, and corpses fell from the air like fallen leaves.
There were not many priests left in the church, and the heavy snow spread and quickly included all the fleeing people. No one can resist this dense murderous intention for even two seconds. In the blink of an eye, there seemed to be a rain of corpses in the village, and the already damaged streets were now covered with devastation.
"you you… "
Five minutes later, only the bishop was left in the church team. He stopped in mid-air, his face turned ashen, looking at Benjamin blocking him in front of him, unable to say a word.
"The era of the church has passed." Benjamin looked at him indifferently and said, "From the moment Icol was defeated, the church has lost its capital to dominate the entire continent. However, it seems that you have not yet You are truly aware of this matter, and you still regard yourself as the king of this era, thinking that as long as you raise your noble head, everything will surrender at your feet."
"No!" The bishop seemed to be stimulated and became furious instantly, "We... we will not fall. God is watching everything. One day, you will pay for the crimes you have committed. .”
When Benjamin heard this, he shook his head, his eyes full of pity.
"Look, I'm right, you still don't realize anything." He said slowly, "Why don't you admit it? You don't believe in any god at all, you are just obsessed with the feeling of being superior."
"Shut up! You..."
The bishop was so angry that he opened his teeth and wanted to curse, but was interrupted by Benjamin with a wave of his hand.
"Okay, I don't have time to chat with you here. Let's go back and see your supreme god." As he spoke, he summoned a dozen turbulent streams of water. The water surged towards the bishop and instantly enveloped him together with the holy light barrier, forming a huge magic-forbidden water ball.
The bishop was trapped inside, his face pale and his expression sluggish, like a walking corpse, he had no will to resist.
So, when the water ball started spinning crazily, crushing the barrier, and completely engulfing the bishop, things no longer had any twists and turns. Half a minute later, a swollen corpse fell down and smashed a cart full of firewood.
The entire village also fell into complete silence after the noise.
"...Are you the person sent by the goddess to save us?"
I don’t know how long the silence lasted. Among the villagers huddled together, someone finally plucked up the courage, took a few steps toward Benjamin, and asked cautiously.
When Benjamin heard this, he turned around and shook his head expressionlessly.
"There is no goddess in this world. The elders are all lying to you."
The villagers froze on the spot, looking at each other. They didn't know whether Benjamin's words frightened them, or whether they were truly alerted by these words.
However, at this moment, the two siblings walked towards the villagers.
"Lord Benjamin is right, the goddess... she will never come to save us." The girl lowered her head and spoke slowly, "The words the elder said are just to make us act like cows."
The villagers turned their heads and saw the faces of the two siblings, as if struck by lightning.
"You... you... aren't you dead?"
The girl shook her head and said: "We almost died, but Lord Benjamin saved us. He is a mage, and he came here to save you from here."
"But... I clearly saw... you were being guarded..."
The girl quietly clenched her fist: "The guard is dead, the goddess did not save him."
Everyone was stunned, not knowing what to say.
Benjamin fell from the sky, walked up to the villagers, and said in an unusually cold tone: "I only save those who can be saved. Maybe you think that my appearance is the goddess answering your prayers, but I just want to tell you, Your goddess is a piece of shit!”
The villagers were in an uproar.
Everyone's eyes widened, as if they couldn't believe what their ears had just heard.
Benjamin didn't care, and continued: "Think about the hardships you have experienced. When you fell into despair, did a goddess really appear and save you? No, the only one who can save you is yourself."
"Now, tell me, which of you want to save yourselves?"
