In this way, Benjamin bid farewell to Michelle and prepared to return to the hotel again to get back the loot he deserved.
Faced with Benjamin's sudden farewell, Michelle was a little confused, but she didn't seem to have any intention of staying too long. Therefore, at Benjamin's urging, she quickly left the prison site.
Of course, before she left, Benjamin didn't forget to ask her another thing.
"Before you asked Anne to die, Anne said something about the old place under the third tree, where she buried all the good things. Where is your old place?"
This opportunity was perfect. Michelle was right in front of him. He asked for the correct location to save himself from wasting time running around.
Hearing this, Michelle showed a strange expression and said: "Anne is a betrayer. She can kill her companions just out of jealousy. What she said before leaving is just a lie." People only deceive themselves. Why do you still believe these words?"
"No matter what, I have nothing to do. I want to dig as much as I want."
“…”
Despite a long conversation, at Benjamin's insistence, Michelle told Benjamin about the "old place". Only then did Benjamin discover that this "old place" was not among the abandoned strongholds given by the church.
People say a cunning rabbit has three burrows, but Michelle has almost thirty burrows.
He couldn't help but feel lucky. Fortunately, before saying goodbye, he asked Michelle one more question. Otherwise, he might never find Anne's relics in his lifetime.
So, after getting the spot at "the old place," he said goodbye to Michelle. Michelle also left in a hurry. If nothing else happened, she was going to open the Lisse family's treasure house.
Anyway...wish her good luck. This is the only place where Benjamin can help her now.
He has more important things to do.
Just like that, Michelle left. After Michelle left, Benjamin couldn't wait to open the mechanism of the prison ruins, allowing the entrance to the secret passage to appear again.
He jumped down from the entrance and entered the dark secret passage again.
Regarding how to return to the hotel, he also had many plans in mind. But in the end, he decided to walk back along the secret passage.
He could also walk back through the streets of the outer city, but doing so would take more time. And if people from the church have arrived, the hotel will definitely be sealed off. Benjamin was dressed like a beggar, how could he get in
Might as well take the secret path.
Of course, secret passages also have their disadvantages. If the people in the church discovered the existence of the secret passage, then Benjamin would have fallen into a trap by walking there like this, and he might have encountered it halfway along the secret passage.
But in the secret passage, Benjamin will also have his own advantages.
The secret passage was dark and nothing could be seen, but he could clearly perceive everything around him through the water element induction method.
With a sensing distance of more than twenty meters, if the church really discovered the secret passage, he would be able to discover the people in the church before they saw him. Therefore, he does not need to worry about this problem.
And, more importantly, the secret passage can lead directly to the room, which is very convenient. All he had to do was wait for no one in the room, then jump out of the secret passage, touch the body and then run back to the secret passage. The whole process will not take more than a minute, it will not easily alarm others, and the probability of success is also high.
Therefore, although he had a vague feeling that he was seeking death, but the plan was so complete, he did not think that he was seeking death.
In short, he must open the priest's body with his own hands. Otherwise, he would regret it so much that he could not sleep for several nights.
Just like that, he was in the dark secret passage, with his eyes closed, turning on the water element induction method, and running towards the hotel.
With the continuous use of water element induction method, Benjamin has become more and more proficient. It felt as if the surrounding water elements had become part of his body, and the information feedback was as fast as his eyes and ears.
He even had the illusion of rolling his eyes.
There is no doubt that this is also the unique ability given to him by the magic runes. He also felt strange why no other spellcaster seemed to have this ability no matter how strong their elemental affinity was.
"Introduction to Divine Magic" doesn't mention this either. It has been written above that after the mental power becomes stronger, people will become more sensitive than before, and even perceive some things that could not be discovered before. But Benjamin knew very well that no matter how sharp his mental power was, it would never reach the level of the water element perception method.
Was there any change in his consciousness space
Benjamin thought so and suddenly smiled to himself.
The existence of consciousness space is already a kind of mutation in itself.
To be honest, if there was a chance, he would have to get some more advanced magical books from Grant. It would be of great help to him if he could find more discussion of "prayer spaces."
Although he also enjoys the fun of exploring on his own, if there is guidance from his predecessors, who would refuse
He was even more curious about the legendary fourth pope. Only by relying on the system to continuously replay the spell was he able to forcibly break through the confinement of consciousness and open up the space of consciousness. And how did the pope who led the church to the top do it
No wonder he is a legendary figure.
In this way, while rushing forward in the secret passage, he was thinking about it in his mind. In about twenty minutes, he returned to the other end of the secret passage hotel.
There was no need to walk slowly behind the old man, and there was no need to carry an unconscious assassin on his back. Therefore, his speed was much faster than when he arrived.
He did not rush to open the door of the secret passage, but stuck to the entrance of the secret passage and sensed it carefully.
The picture in the room slowly took shape in Benjamin's mind.
The half-open wardrobe, the empty bed, the three paladins whose heads were shot, the priest who rolled his eyes and foamed at the mouth and was still wet... Everything in the room was no different from before he left.
Benjamin was suddenly pleasantly surprised.
Sure enough, the church was busy with too many things and did not immediately spare any manpower to investigate.
But surprise was a surprise, and Benjamin wasn't sure that the people from the church really hadn't come yet. So out of caution, he stayed still and waited at the entrance of the secret passage, deciding to wait and see again.
Fortunately, he was cautious, because within ten seconds, the faint sound of conversation reached his ears.
"...Who would have thought that there is such a powerful mage hidden in the royal capital. I wonder what His Majesty the Pope and the Bishop will think when they see this scene when they come back?"
A deep male voice, from small to loud, from far to near.
Then, under Benjamin's induction, two men dressed as priests walked into the room while talking.
Benjamin couldn't help but sigh.
In the end, the church still sent someone, and he might have been happy in vain.
But he was not discouraged, there was still a chance. As long as he observes the movement pattern of these two people, and waits until they leave the room for a while, he can take the opportunity to come out and touch the body.
Opportunities are something you can always wait for as long as you are patient enough.
In this way, he squatted at the entrance of the secret passage, waiting for the opportunity to take action.
In the room separated by a wooden board, the conversation between the two priests continued.
"Do you feel that His Majesty the Pope has not shown up for eight years? Since he successfully communicated with God, his whole person has become completely different from before." I heard one of the priests suddenly say this.
