When the broken sword landed on the heavy ice wall, invisible waves spread, and even everyone in the bubble was knocked to the ground with a look of astonishment on their faces.
However, Benjamin's expression suddenly changed.
"This is… "
He could clearly feel that the pressure coming from above was so weak that it couldn't even break through the ice, let alone the water elemental elves under the ice, which had no chance of hurting him.
Benjamin had a very strange feeling.
There were layers of ice and dazzling light between him and Grant, and he could not see the other person's expression clearly for a long time. However, when he just used the water element induction method to detect it, behind the holy light, only the ordinary broken sword was left, and not even Grant's shadow could be seen.
After being stunned for half a second, Benjamin suddenly seemed to realize something, turned his head and looked in the direction of the blisters. But at this moment, the extreme light thread had already rushed from the side of the bubble!
Grant was now flying above the bubble, his eyes falling on the king.
Whoosh!
Everything happened so fast that before Benjamin had time to take action, he saw a glimmer of light on the king's chest. Immediately afterwards, the light thread sprang out from his heart like a poisonous snake!
"His Majesty!"
I don't know who shouted this, but at this time, the king even had a blank look on his face, as if he didn't realize what was happening, as if he thought he was just a spectator, watching Grant wield the "Holy Sword" and Benjamin of confrontation.
At the same time, Grant raised his head and looked at Benjamin across a distance of more than ten meters. His eyes were cold and indifferent, like a leopard once again easily capturing an unsuspecting prey.
Benjamin's mood hit rock bottom at that moment.
"Elemental Command·Healing!" He didn't care about anything else, drew the characters, summoned the healing rain as fast as he could, and floated towards the king.
However, a curtain of light suddenly appeared and blocked the rain again.
"Elf, kill him!"
Benjamin suddenly became anxious and immediately gave orders to the water elemental elf. The elf also instantly condensed several water threads, flashed past, and rushed towards Grant.
With a bang, the light curtain was cut into pieces by the water threads, but Grant took advantage of this time to turn around and fly up into the sky, directly escaping from the deep sea realm.
He stopped high in the air, suddenly turned around, and gave Benjamin a cold look.
"...the time has not come yet."
After leaving these words, the light wings behind him waved violently. With a clanging sound, the "Holy Sword" fell to the ground, and like lightning, he disappeared from the sky without a trace.
At the same time, inside the bubble, the king had a look of confusion and shock on his face. At the last moment of his life, he wanted to look down at the small hole in his heart, but he fell straight down.
A muffled sound sounded like a bolt from the blue to Benjamin's ears.
The healing rain finally drifted over and fell on the king. But no matter how he directed it, all Yusi could do in the end was wet the king's clothes, unable to melt into the body that still had residual warmth.
Blood slowly seeped out from the small holes on his chest and back. It wasn't much, but it couldn't be stopped no matter what.
"… he died."
The system suddenly spoke, its tone unprecedentedly calm, as if it was really a system speaking.
Benjamin never came back to his senses.
Not only him, but everyone present did not come back to their senses. The two siblings were closest to the king, but at this moment they seemed to be under a restraining spell. They lowered their heads and stared at the king's body in shock, unable to say a word.
"How, how could this happen? Your Majesty... Your Majesty! Wake up! Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"
Someone walked over, shouting anxiously, and stretched out his trembling hands to support the king's body, trying to lift him up from the ground. But... now that the matter has come to this, what result can they get
In just ten seconds, their expressions changed from anxious to sad.
"Your Majesty, your Majesty is dead... Your Majesty..."
Trembling voices came from the crowd, and no one could accept this fact. Just now, but half a minute ago, the king was standing beside them, watching the battle between Benjamin and Grant with them. But in the blink of an eye, the king fell, and Grant left a few words and walked away lightly, leaving only them helpless and miserable mood.
They were still a little in disbelief.
Could this all be an illusion? If Benjamin had not destroyed the church and rescued them, His Majesty would not have been attacked by the Pope and died in such an unknown place...
Everyone closed their eyes in unison and lowered their heads towards the king's body.
Benjamin suddenly raised his head, looked at the direction where Grant disappeared, and the palms under his sleeves suddenly tightened.
"You were plotted." The voice of the system seemed to have become helpless. "This guy is indeed a bit cunning. He took out a fake holy sword and deceived all of us."
Although there was not much sarcasm in its tone, Benjamin closed his eyes and replied in his mind: "Shut up."
The system seemed to be unaware of the heavy atmosphere and continued: "Actually... you should have figured it out a long time ago. If Grant came for you, he could have taken action in the city, so why did he follow you all the way here? ? He followed you here just to follow the clues and find the king. You should have thought of this."
“…”
If it were normal, Benjamin would have scolded him long ago when faced with a system that kept hitting the target. However, at this moment, he suddenly fell silent, not even intending to reply.
Because... the system is right.
Grant came for the king. He should have thought of such an obvious intention.
"...Ben, Lord Benjamin, what should we do now?" After an unknown amount of time in this atmosphere of shock and heaviness, someone finally came back to his senses and looked at Benjamin.
Everyone else looked at Benjamin in unison.
"Pack up His Majesty's body." Benjamin took a deep breath, suppressed his emotions, and spoke slowly, "We must leave here as soon as possible. Grant is gone, but it does not mean that he will not bring a group of priests again in ten minutes. return."
When everyone heard this, it was as if the wolf pack that had lost its leader had found its backbone again, nodded, and quickly started moving again.
They lifted up the king's body, and Benjamin gathered his mood and led everyone to quickly fly away from the woods and head towards the ocean to the south. There is a ship they bought on the sea, which was originally used as the stronghold of the Black Nightmare Society. Under this situation, it is the only place where they can stay safely.
In the dark night, everyone walked into the cabin as if they had lost all their strength, with a look of confusion about the future on their faces.
Benjamin stood alone on the deck and suddenly took out the sound transmission wood piece.
Inside is the latest news just sent from the academy’s ANBU:
"Master Dean, the church just announced the death of the king overnight. They said that the king had been tortured repeatedly during the process of being kidnapped by the mage. In the end, he was killed by the mage who kidnapped him just now. They also said The Pope had just arrived at that time and was too late to rescue. He could only watch helplessly as the mage took the king's body and once again used the power of the devil to escape from their pursuit."
