Coincidentally, this woman actually claimed to have seen the girl Benedy described.
The receptionist at Robela's clothing store was very enthusiastic. After discussing the girl's temperament and appearance with Benedy, she pointed in the direction behind Benedy.
That was the direction they walked back to Matthew's rental house.
"Thank you, this elegant lady, may you be blessed by Holy Louis." Benedy held his hat and performed a simple courtesy.
"Oh, if it had been a month earlier, you wouldn't have changed it to Pan." The lady said with some regret.
Pan? The belief of the orcs? Benedy was stunned for a moment, and then he reacted: "I praise your enthusiasm, and may Pan's divine joy envelope you. You are really a free lady."
Benedy quipped, but the woman didn't care: "Thank you for the compliment, and may Holy Louis bless you. My husband made me realize Pan's happiness."
Benedy couldn't bear it, so he said goodbye with a smile and walked away under the dim streetlight.
Walking under the light of the roadside, Benedy saw a drunk man swaying on a bench in front of him.
There was a black parasol lying quietly not far from his feet. Benedy walked over and gently picked it up.
Feeling the magic power fluctuations all around, there should have been some fights here, but Angelica disappeared, which is enough to prove the final result.
There was a trace of anger in Benedy's eyes. He was reluctant to use his own employees. Why is there still someone taking his people away now?
"Knight, blood..." At this time, the drunk man on the bench muttered something.
After hearing this, Benedy looked at him and threw a meditation circle.
"What do you know?" Benedy's eyes returned to calmness, and the black crutch in his hand tapped the edge of the wooden chair.
"Yes, a lady gave me a gold coin and asked me to tell the person who picked up this umbrella two things, a knight and a graceful fat man." The drunk man suddenly woke up and looked at Benedy in a daze.
Knight? Graceful fat man? Benedy was trying to figure out these two things. He didn't judge the authenticity of the drunkard's words. He roughly guessed a place based on the direction the umbrella was pointing.
This umbrella will not be left here for no reason.
Benedy stopped tapping his cane, and the white button leather shoes under his feet made a clear sound on the stone floor, gradually disappearing into the darkness.
The drunkard looked at Benedy's leaving figure with clear eyes. When he was illuminated by the meditation circle, his whole body was sublimated. It seemed that all his recent sins had disappeared without a trace.
...
Soon after, Benedy's figure appeared in front of a luxurious and exquisite door. The door was tightly closed, and a gravel road wider than the road outside led to a huge building.
I saw that the building was built on a tall hillside, and it was resplendent and exuding the aura of money.
Benedy stretched out his crutch and touched an invisible wall of air. It was a magic circle, a protective magic circle surrounding the entire manor.
"Funny." Benedy shook his crutch.
"Apat, the sin of deception, the aura is hidden."
When Benedy used this magic, Angelica, who didn't know where she was at the moment, trembled all over.
The contract has been established, and you will be the lamb to bear my sins.
Angelica, whose limbs were trapped by chains, raised her head slightly, and her long, snow-white hair could not hide her blood-red pupils.
"Why are you laughing? Dirty vampire." Several figures outside the cage heard Angelica's sly smile.
Since I, the lamb, have blocked your sins, it proves that I have not been abandoned, right? The corner of Angelica's mouth actually curled up.
But this is also a trap for you...
At this moment, Benedy had already stepped into the manor, but before he could take a few steps, the sound under his feet made his body tremble.
"You're playing this game with me? I'm afraid you don't know what path I'm on." Benedy's magic power flowed into his feet, and then was instilled into the bomb at his feet. Such an explosion was destroyed by his silent movements.
Resolved.
"It seems that the other party is not only targeting Angelica, but also seems to be targeting me." Benedy paid more attention to his steps.
"Taking both of us as targets at the same time, your identity and purpose are about to be revealed, Mr. Earl." Benedy had a wicked smile on his lips.
"I can make a bold guess that outside of the royal family, you are definitely not a fraudster who commits deceptive crimes, but you must be a performer of arrogant crimes. You must have smelled the breath of the lamb."
Benedy pressed his fedora hat in the moonlight, and things seemed a little complicated.
As he walked, Benedy seemed to feel more and more figures appearing around him, but he was sure that they were definitely not living people, but rather the puppet magic that the other party was good at.
This manor should be just the beginning.
There are bombs buried on the ground, more and more weird dolls around, and the old castle that hides unknown secrets.
Benedy took another step forward, but this time he seemed to have touched the puppet's switch!
For a moment, all the dolls' heads twisted weirdly until they faced Benedy. The next moment, they all rushed towards Benedy with weird postures.
He deliberately avoided all the surrounding mines. At this moment, he had already moved towards an area with the most dense bombs. If he took another step forward, he would not be able to get off. But at this moment, all the puppets had been awakened.
Looking at the facial features painted with strange paint, Benedy liked it very much. He thought these dolls were really good, so let's blow them all up to the sky!
"Three, two..." Benedy counted in his mouth. When a group of puppets flying towards him touched him, a white light flashed.
Benedy, who was at the center of the siege, appeared directly in the distance, and then he was surprised to find that the puppets that had lost their target seemed to be suspended, and they all stopped moving.
The dolls in the air were also hanging in the air like puppets on strings.
But, so what? An explosive feast prepared for me will not be missed!
"One!" Benedy cracked the corners of his mouth, and his white teeth revealed his excitement at the moment. His excitement level was steadily increasing.
As the countdown "one" fell, a black crutch fell quickly from the sky. With a "Plop!" sound, half of the crutch fell into the ground.
"Boom!"
"Boom boom boom!"
There were endless chain explosions, and the fire kept appearing, briefly illuminating the manor. The terrifying smoke rose into the sky, which was enough to prove the lethality of this concentrated explosion.
Benedy held onto the brim of his hat, feeling the air waves blowing across his cheek. This was a game between high-level experts of the same category, and at this moment, the game had just begun.
