In the history of the Church of the Storm, although there had been cases of disagreements between the Pope and the Cardinals, there had never been a case of a God's Punisher becoming a mole and leaking information to the Dark Wizards. If what Marguerite said was true, then there was no doubt that Jovic had created a new record in the history of the Church of the Storm. He had become the first God's Punisher to become a mole.
Of course, as the protagonist, the Church of the Storm would not like this new record. This was undoubtedly a great humiliation for them!
Marguerite was not surprised by Connor's shocked expression. In fact, when she learned from Elena that Jovic might be a mole, she was even more shocked than Connor. She found it hard to believe …
Sighing again, Marguerite continued, "After realizing that Jovic might be a mole, Elena and Cristante both realized the importance of this matter. This was not a decision they could make, so on one hand, they started to block the news and tried to report this matter to Pope Ilsank. On the other hand, they started to consciously place Jovic within their sights and control him, preventing him from contacting the outside world."
"Unfortunately, Jovic was too astute and decisive. After noticing that Cristante and Elena were acting strangely, he immediately secretly sent a signal to Reyes. Reyes took action and arranged for Bisping and Southgate to attack a secret stronghold of the Church in Flosinone, attracting most of the Church's forces. At the same time, the Church's nest in Flosinone, the Mensaka Manor, was left with only Cristante and Elena to keep an eye on Jovic."
"Taking advantage of this opportunity, Reyes personally attacked the Mensaka Manor. He used a very strange and mysterious magic item to release a kind of black and white fog, which made the various alchemy restriction magic circles that Cristante and the others set up in the Mensaka Manor useless."
"Apart from that, this black and white mist is all-pervasive. Even if a Magus uses magic items or spells to form a barrier to prevent this mist from getting close to them, it is useless. This strange black and white mist can still penetrate through energy and enter a person's body through their respiratory tract or pores. After inhaling this black and white mist, a person's mind will feel dizzy and numb. Their magic power and spiritual force will start to go out of control. No matter what potions they take, they will not be able to alleviate these symptoms."
"With the help of this black and white fog, Reyes and Jovic worked together in the Mensaka Manor …" Speaking of this, Marguerite seemed to recall the situation at that time. Her eyes turned red, and her voice was choked with sobs.
Seeing Marguerite so sad, Connor also felt bad. He pulled Marguerite into his arms and leaned on Connor's chest. The sad Marguerite gradually pulled herself together in Connor's arms. She moved closer to Connor's ear and said, "Jovic is Conti! Conti is Jovic! "
"What do you mean?" Connor didn't understand for a moment and asked with confusion.
In response to Connor's confusion, Marguerite thought for a while and explained, "I don't really understand what happened. When Reyes killed his way into the Mensaka Manor with that black and white fog, Elena saw that the situation was bad and told me to escape first. When I left, I vaguely heard Elena looking at Jovic and saying that he was Conti.
"Other than that, I also heard Elena mention the incident in Loen. After that, I saw Cristante take out a level-three magic item and try to perish together with Reyes. However, Reyes easily killed him with that black and white fog."
"As for Elena, even with the help of the Blizzard Staff, she couldn't hold on for long in front of Conti and Reyes. Even the Blizzard Staff was heavily injured by Reyes when it was protecting Elena to escape …" Marguerite's voice became lower and lower, and her face was filled with sadness.
After carefully studying Marguerite's account, Connor hesitated for a while and asked her, "How did you put it? Did Elena survive?"
"At that time, the situation in the Mensaka Manor was very chaotic and many people died. At that time, I only cared about leaving and wanted to call for reinforcements. I only saw Blizzard Staff being injured by Reyes. As for Elena, I didn't see it," Elena explained.
After explaining to Connor, Marguerite paused for a few seconds before continuing, "I left the Mensaka Manor and wanted to bring back most of the people who captured Bisping and Southgate. However, before I could get there, I heard that the people there were ambushed by the Secret Society. Several official Wizards and some Wizard Apprentices of the Church, including Giovanni and Andrew, were captured alive, so I didn't have any good ideas. I didn't know what to do, so I could only come and meet up with you, Connor …"
After hearing Marguerite's explanation of the whole incident, Connor sighed deeply in his heart. Although he looked calm on the surface, he was extremely disappointed.
The people from the Church of the Storm, led by Elena and Cristante, were really too difficult to explain in a few words. He hadn't even come to cooperate with them, and they were already either dead or injured by Reyes.
Thinking of this, Connor had mixed feelings. He was glad that he wasn't killed by Elena and Cristante, but he was also afraid and uneasy that he would have to face Reyes. Reyes had killed the people from the Church of the Storm, and their next step might be to deal with him, his student.
Just as Connor and Marguerite were silent for a while in the small wooden house, Marguerite seemed to have sensed something. In front of Connor, she took out a very inconspicuous stone from her space ring.
Connor was thinking about what to do next when he saw Marguerite's actions. His attention was also attracted by the stone. Under his gaze, Marguerite stared at the stone for a while, then gently cut a centimeter-long wound on her fair finger. A drop of dark red blood immediately gushed out from the wound and was dripped onto the stone by Marguerite.
