The Immortal God of War

Chapter 148 Return of Ben

After confirming that the person she saw was Ben, Janet froze in place for a moment.

Logically, he should have been dead, but how did he come back to life?

After blocking the first attack for Liu Chi, Ben's consciousness returned to his body. He immediately ran out and grabbed the ball lightning with his hands.

Because his consciousness had been away from his body for too long, Ben forgot how to control his body for a moment, and his actions just now were completely out of instinct.

"I didn't expect you to be a master of puppetry. I finally understand why you wanted to kill me."

Surprised, Janet immediately realized that Ben now looked like a puppet, with stiff movements and no expression at all.

When Liu Chi saw Ben in front of him, he immediately opened the system panel.

The status bar in this message made Liu Chi happy. This time Ben was really back, and he successfully comprehended the vital energy.

"Your Majesty, you misunderstood. The person in front of you is the real Uncle Ben. He just needs some time to calm down."

Seeing that Liu Chi didn't look like he was lying to her, Janet returned her gaze to Ben.

Logically speaking, with Ben’s strength, he couldn’t take one of my attacks, but now he has taken two of them!

Janet did not let her guard down at all. To her, Ben seemed to be a bigger threat now.

The moment Janet stretched out her hand, a slender silver sword appeared in her hand, and she handed it to Zero beside her.

After taking the sword, Zero immediately drew it out.

At this moment, Ben's consciousness was like that of a drowning person. He wanted to swim upwards, but he was becoming increasingly powerless.

Part of Ben's body has already died. Putting aside the problem of adaptability, it will take a lot of time to regenerate by relying on vitality.

After a long while, Ben finally squeezed out a sentence in a hoarse voice: "Naughty boy~"

Janet raised her eyebrows. This was her childhood nickname, known only to her and Ben. She quickly put away her magic wand and smiled.

"It's all gone!"

Janet said softly to Zero,

Zero put away the sword and returned it to Janet. After doing this, she walked out of the yard.

After a few words, the knights outside the yard began to evacuate, and Zero stood at the gate of the yard, waiting for Janet to come out.

"Uncle Ben!" Janet ran quickly and jumped in front of Ben in two or three steps.

Naughty boy? Liu Chi laughed inwardly, as if he knew something extraordinary.

After a while, Ben took a deep breath.

"It's a bit cold outside, let's go inside and talk!"

Ben walked towards the mud house. With every step he took, he seemed to recover a little and his steps became stronger and stronger.

After reaching the door, Ben opened it but did not go in. Instead, he turned around and smiled at Liu Chi and Janet.

"Queen! Master! I'll take you here. You go in first. There's another person in the weapon refining room. I'll be back soon."

Watching Ben leave, Janet glanced at Liu Chi sheepishly.

"Don't think too much. Everything I did just now was to test you. I didn't wrongly accuse you~"

Liu Chi's eyes widened instantly. Oh my goodness! If Ben hadn't blocked the attack for me, I would have been dead.

Liu Chi didn't think Janet was testing him, but that she really wanted to kill him.

"Liu Chi believes that as long as the naughty boy is happy, that's all!"

When Janet heard Liu Chi calling her like that, her face instantly turned red. She raised her hand and gently hit Liu Chi a few times.

"Don't call me that! Call me Your Majesty the Queen!"

"Okay, naughty boy! I got it, naughty boy!"

Liu Chi immediately laughed out loud.

Janet's face turned red with anger, and she chased after Liu Chi and beat him up.

Facing Janet's weak blows, Liu Chi subconsciously blocked them with his hands.

When Gou Zi saw this scene between the two of them, he felt his head buzzing. He stood outside the door and didn't dare to go in. In his opinion, his master was in a good mood.

Liu Chi was stepping backwards, but unexpectedly he missed a step and fell directly to the ground. As his attack missed, Janet also fell down shortly after him.

Because of the height difference between the two, when Janet fell, their eyes met at eye level.

Ben was holding Cathy in a princess hug and happened to see Janet pressing Liu Chi under her.

"Cough cough!"

Janet immediately climbed up, her heart pounding wildly; this was the first time she was so close to Willow Pond.

Fortunately, the ground was black mud, so Liu Chi didn't feel much pain from the fall and he got up after a while.

I saw Ben carrying Casey into the innermost room and coming out after a while.

Janet and Liu Chi both sat on wooden chairs nearby. Ben lit the fireplace for heating in winter, and the yellow flames flickered in the living room.

"It's a bit cold! Let me make a fire!"

Ben sat in another chair and the three of them sat in the living room.

"Are you cold, Uncle Ben?"

Janet looked at the dense beads of sweat on Ben's forehead and expressed her doubts. The flame shining on her body was like the scorching sun, and it was very hot.

Seeing Ben's reaction, Liu Chi understood that this was the symptom Qing Yan mentioned, sweating but feeling very cold.

"Yes, a little bit! Hehe~"

"You guys~" "Uncle Ben you~"

Ben and Janet spoke at the same time, then both paused.

"Uncle Ben, have you advanced? You took my attack so easily?"

Janet asked first, she wanted to find out why this was happening.

"I don't quite understand this. You should ask Master for the details."

Janet had long wondered why Ben chose Liu Chi as his master. He would pretend before, but now he calls him that openly.

"Tell me, what's going on? Why did Uncle Ben fake his death before?"

"Cough cough!"

Liu Chi originally thought that he only needed to be a bystander, but he didn't expect that the ball would be kicked to him by the two of them.

"Actually? According to common sense, Uncle Ben has indeed advanced. I'm sure Uncle Ben knows exactly what stage he has reached. Your Majesty, you should ask Uncle Ben!"

Before Ben had time to relax, the ball came back to him. He had no idea what Yuan Qi was talking about because Liu Chi had never introduced the classification of Yuan Qi.

Since Liu Chi was the master, Ben did not dare to pass the buck to Liu Chi, but explained,

"I just came back from suspended animation, I forgot about it, haha~"

Janet looked at Ben, who was sweating profusely and had his arms folded with both hands, and realized that Liu Chi and Ben were acting together and that they were hiding an unspeakable secret from her.

"Since Uncle Ben forgot, I should go back and rest. You must take good care of yourself and don't catch a cold."

Janet stood up, glared at Liu Chi, and then walked towards the door.

Just as Ben and Liu Chi breathed a sigh of relief, Janet, who had walked to the door, turned around.

She smiled and walked out of the hut.

"Kid, get in quickly!"

After driving the dog away, Janet immediately took out the crystal ball.

Janet had just set up a small barrier in the mud house, and was now preparing to see what Liu Chi and Ben were hiding.

After repeated confirmation, Janet discovered that the barrier she had set up for the crystal ball had failed.

Janet gritted her teeth and went back into the mud house.

The two people who had just relaxed were about to say something when they saw Janet coming back.

Seeing the changes in Ben and Liu Chi's expressions, Janet smiled and walked back to her original seat.

"You two are hiding something from me, right? Why are you being so secretive?"

"Your Majesty, you misunderstood. Uncle Ben and I were just chatting about family matters!"

"Yes, yes, we were just chatting about family matters!"

Ben reacted immediately and asked,

"Master, what did you eat tonight?"

"what?"

When Liu Chi was asked this question, he realized that he was too busy in the evening and forgot about dinner for a while.

“I haven’t eaten yet~”

"Then I will show you my skills! Hehe!"

Ben smiled and stood up. After seeing what had just happened, he realized that he should give the two a chance to be alone together.

"Dog, let's go! Let's cook!"

After Ben took the dog away, Liu Chi and Janet were the only ones left in the room.

"Why did Ben take you as his master?"

"I was also surprised, but there happened to be something I needed to do, so I agreed."

"What's going on? Is it about refining weapons?"

Janet thought that the magic props refined last time did not meet Liu Chi's needs, so he must have come here for new weapons.

Liu Chi nodded.

"Holy weapon."

Janet suspected that she had heard wrongly. There were no more holy weapon masters on the continent. Liu Chi's words seemed to be spoken casually just to be perfunctory.

"Are you sure? As far as I know, Ben doesn't know how to make a holy weapon."

Liu Chi knew that his explanation was not going to make sense, after all, he was also waiting for Ben's answer.

"I can give him some pointers, which is why he wants me to be his teacher."

"Since you can make a holy weapon, why did you come to see Ben again?"

Janet thought that Liu Chi was still beating around the bush and refusing to answer her questions.

"It's a long story, but I have to confirm with Ben again before I can get a result. I think ~ Her Majesty the Queen will understand by then."

Seeing that Liu Chi was still keeping her in suspense, Janet no longer wanted to ask any further questions. She felt that once she asked a new question, Liu Chi would definitely use a new way to avoid the question.

However, Ben, who was preparing to cook, felt his eyes start to circle around and he felt very sleepy as he continued to sweat.

As the things in front of him kept turning, Ben couldn't hold on any longer and fell asleep.

After seeing Ben fall, Gouzi immediately rushed back to the earthen house.

"Oh no! Oh no! My master has fainted!"

Janet and Liu Chi stood up at the same time and followed closely behind Gou Zidu.

When I arrived at the kitchen, it was just as Gouzi said, Ben was lying on the ground, motionless.

"Let Uncle Ben go and rest first. I'll take care of dinner. If your Majesty the Queen has nothing else to do, please come back tomorrow."

Janet looked at Ben's clothes which were already soaked with sweat. She had no idea what had happened to Ben. Janet was now only confused.

What the hell is wrong with Ben? What are they hiding from me?
