I became a mage and was recruited by the lord as his son-in-law

The place where Bennett landed was right in front of Garen and the mother and son.

The three of them also stopped. At this distance, there was no possibility for them to escape.

And Bennett was in no hurry to kill them.

The green light just now clearly had the intention of protecting these three people. If necessary, these three people could become hostages.

When the Grand Duchess saw Bennett coming to her, she quickly crawled to his side and begged him:

"Please, let me go..."

But Bennett was in no mood to listen to her pleas. He directly used his magic power to tie the woman aside.

However, another green light appeared, and Bennett's mental strength was directly cut off.

"The child is innocent, Master Mage, please let him go."

The woman still spoke, and her head hit the exposed tree roots, leaving a trail of blood.

Bennett ignored her and said to Beth behind him:

"Beth, you go first, I'll hold him back."

Beth saw the two flashes of green light just now. She felt the breath inside and now she was covered in cold sweat.

If this man were a human, he would never let Beth go.

What should we do? Throw Bennett here now?

Beth stood behind Bennett in a daze. If it were a day ago, Beth would never hesitate. No matter how special Bennett was to her, everything had to give way to her mission.

But now, she hesitated.

She looked at the back in front of her. This person stood in front of her, not because of her sainthood, not because of any big plan.

Just because she's Beth.

Seeing Beth in a daze, Bennett became anxious and urged:

"You go first, I'll be there soon."

Beth seemed to have made up her mind. She shook her head and said:

"His biggest target is me, Bennett. You are the one who should go."

After that, she stood in front of Bennett.

"You are better than me, Bennett. Perhaps the hope for the future does not lie in me, but in you."

At this moment, Master Lingchao and Adam also came here. They stopped opposite Bennett, and both of them looked very ugly.

Archmage Lingchao looked at Garen and the other two, then looked at the Archduchess who had fainted. He thought it was Bennett who did it, and he was very anxious.

Adam looked at Beth behind Bennett. He also saw the green light just now. He had the same idea as Bennett.

If this green light came from humans, then Beth would be in great danger this time.

"Beth, please leave first. Master Lieyang and I will block this place. Please leave."

Master Lingchao was stunned for a moment. His mind was a little confused. The current situation seemed to be a little different from what he expected.

Bennett glanced at Adam and said:

"The man just now protected these three people. I think we can use them as hostages."

Adam looked at Jarvan and the other two, and his face suddenly turned pale.

Garen looked at Adam. He could tell at a glance what this old friend was thinking.

For Adam, the future of mankind is his primary consideration.

In front of Beth's life, everything has to give way, even a thousand-year-old friend.

"Jiawen, he definitely doesn't want to protect you, so leave first."

Bennett also nodded. He had no intention of killing Jarvan. He just wanted to kill him too, but Bennett didn't want to be distracted.

Jiawen was stunned on the spot, damn, I was just being too sentimental.

For the first time in all these years, Master Lingchao felt his brain was confused. What was going on?

Adam, aren't you here to protect the children?

How come you are suddenly in cahoots with the mage on the opposite side?

Damn, there's a traitor next to me.

Just as they formed a new alliance, a voice suddenly came from the woods.

"Interesting, interesting. The complexity of human beings always opens my eyes."

It was a woman's voice. Her pronunciation was very awkward, but her voice had a feeling of clear spring water falling into the soul, and an ethereal feeling of a deer calling in the woods, as if the person speaking was a harp.

Bennett tried to pull Beth behind him, but he couldn't pull her.

Beth stubbornly stayed with Bennett. What future, what plans? She just wanted to do what she wanted now.

Adam looked alert, and he said again:

"Beth, you leave first."

Beth answered decisively:

"Do not."

Adam looked back at Beth, his eyes full of disbelief. This was not the saint he wanted.

"Hahahaha, the wizard and the saint, this pair is quite a good match.

A madman, a tyrant, is there anything more evil than this?"

There was a sound from the woods again. Adam looked at Beth with a complicated expression. He was happy for her resistance but sad for the timing.

He was happy that Beth's abilities might continue to awaken, but he was also sad about the timing of Beth's awakening. Now was really not the right time.

There is no other way. If this man is not dealt with, there will always be a sword hanging over Beth's head.

"Bennett, protect Beth. She can't escape now. We can only kill her here."

Bennett looked at Beth. He wanted to persuade her to leave for the last time, but he didn't say anything. A kiss stopped him from speaking.

Beth let go of Bennett and said:

"If I could die here with you, that would be the happiest thing for me."

Bennett looked embarrassed and asked, "Can't you say something nice?"

Adam looked at the Great Master Lingchao and said:

“Grand Mage, although you are a mage, your faith is stronger than that of God. I know this is absolutely intolerable to you.

But please stand on our side. A child and a woman are nothing compared to Beth."

Master Lingchao smiled slightly and said:

“Mr. Adam, I have always respected you as a senior, but now it seems that you are nothing more than that.

A true knight would never sacrifice an unarmed child for the so-called future.

If this child is destined to die today, he should die behind me, instead of me watching him die in front of me in the name of the future.

I do not fear death, Adam."

After saying that, Master Lingchao resolutely stood in front of the child.

Everyone looked at Master Lingchao in amazement.

Bennett looked into the wizard's eyes. No wonder this man's eyes were blue. This man was really evil.

Jarvan was also stunned. The words of the Spirit Tide Mage once again awakened the faith in his heart. He stood in front of the child. At this moment, protecting the weak became the first goal of God's gift.

Adam and Beth had complicated expressions.

Adam was once a knight given by God, but after going through so much, he had long since given up those qualities in his heart, and chivalry could not save the world.

Beth had only been God's gift for one day, but she remembered her feelings at that time clearly. For an existence higher than God's gift, they had long abandoned simple good and evil.

At this moment, a sound was heard again in the woods.

"Hahahaha, I admire you, Mage. It's just a pity. If you were a knight, I would definitely take you away and teach you to be a real knight."

When the voice came out this time, Bennett's face changed drastically, because the voice did not come from one place, but from all directions.

This is not the knight's ability, this is the wizard's illusion.

And Bennett had sensed that man, a proper knight of hers, definitely not a wizard.

And now, Bennett has lost all perception of that man.
