The principle of the self-explosion array was to use a Magus as the core of the array. As long as the Magus' body was damaged, the self-explosion array would be triggered automatically. However, Connor had secretly arranged this black bubble made of dark energy. Although it trapped Pedro inside, it didn't cause any harm to him. Therefore, it didn't meet the requirements to trigger the self-explosion array under Pedro's feet.
For an alchemist like Connor, although the self-explosion array of the Church of the Storm was troublesome, as long as he controlled the core of the array, the difficulty of cracking the self-explosion array would be reduced by eighty to ninety percent. Cracking it was only a matter of time!
Sure enough, with the help of the compass and other alchemy tools, Connor spent ten minutes to crack the self-explosion array.
"Phew!"
Exhaling a mouthful of turbid air, Connor looked at the crumbling self-explosion array with a satisfied smile on his face. Just as he was about to enter the cellar, he heard Marguerite's voice.
"Connor, what happened?"
Marguerite had been waiting outside for ten minutes and didn't see any signal from Connor. She was afraid that something would happen to Connor in the factory, so she immediately got rid of the two underlings of Abrage who were keeping watch outside the factory and entered the factory to meet up with Connor.
Seeing Marguerite's appearance, although Connor was a little surprised, he just shook his head and pointed at the hidden entrance of the cellar. "Don't worry, I'm fine. There's a cellar down there. The batch of potions you want should be down there, Marguerite!"
Hearing Connor's answer, Marguerite shifted her gaze to the ground that Connor was pointing at with a look of anticipation in her beautiful eyes. Seeing this, Connor didn't continue with the nonsense. With a thought, he opened the cellar door and hundreds of neatly arranged crystal boxes quietly appeared in front of Connor's vision.
Seeing this scene, Connor and Marguerite smiled at the same time. But in the next second, Marguerite looked a little hesitant.
Noticing this, Connor naturally understood Marguerite's thoughts. He smiled and took the initiative to pat Marguerite's shoulder, leaving the cellar to Marguerite alone. Then, Connor snapped his fingers, and the black bubble floating in mid-air that enveloped Pedro burst. Pedro was caught off guard and fell heavily to the ground.
Pedro looked like a ruthless person. Although he fell heavily to the ground with a trace of dark red blood flowing out of the corner of his mouth, he didn't care about his injuries at all. With a ferocious expression, he charged towards Connor. It seemed like he wanted to sacrifice himself for a righteous cause. Even if he had to die, he wanted to hurt Connor.
Looking at Pedro's actions, Connor felt some admiration for this middle-aged man. However, compared to admiration, Connor felt more pity for him. The difference in strength between an apprentice and an official Adept could be described as a chasm between heaven and earth. This Pedro was too naive.
Connor didn't chant a spell, nor did he do anything else. He only shook his head slightly, and the ferocious Pedro fell to the ground and fainted. Connor then dragged Pedro away. Compared to the magic potions in the cellar, Connor was more interested in Pedro. His intuition told him that there was something about Pedro that piqued his interest.
Watching Connor drag the unconscious Pedro away, Marguerite felt a little sorry for him, but in the end, she didn't plead with Connor on his behalf. She sighed and walked into the cellar. Right now, her top priority was to find the magic potions she wanted. Nothing else mattered.
After dragging Pedro to a corner of the factory, Connor didn't hesitate. He placed his hand on Pedro's head and began to cast a Spirit Assimilation spell.
Like most of the other wizards from the Church of the Storm, Pedro also practiced spells to prevent his soul from being assimilated. However, it was a pity that he met a spiritual wizard like Connor Ferguson. All the defenses in his Spirit Ocean were vulnerable in front of Connor's powerful spiritual force. Very quickly, Connor's spiritual force entered Pedro's Spirit Ocean and browsed through his memories.
It had to be said that Connor's intuition was very accurate. This guy named Pedro had a lot of things that interested Connor. Connor checked for a full half an hour before ending the Spirit Assimilation. Then, Connor carefully sized up this tough guy named Pedro. With a thought, Pedro's head exploded like a rotten watermelon.
Since he already knew what was in Pedro's mind, he had no more value to Connor. Therefore, Connor had no reason to keep him alive and gave him a quick death.
After killing Pedro, Connor took his space ring. There was a treasure that interested Connor very much. As usual, Connor handled Pedro's corpse skillfully and neatly.
After doing all this, Connor felt that Marguerite was almost done. She went back to the cellar after picking out the magic potions she wanted.
Connor was right. Marguerite had finished picking out the magic potions in the cellar. When she saw Connor coming back, she looked a little serious. She looked at Connor and said, "I'm done. The rest is yours, Connor."
She then avoided Connor's gaze and said, "Connor, I have something to deal with now."
"Alright, come back quickly. If you have any questions, remember to contact me at any time!" Connor nodded and carefully reminded Margaret, "Don't worry, I'll be back soon.
Marguerite didn't say anything and only nodded. Then, under Connor's gaze, she turned into a shadow and disappeared into the night outside the factory.
Connor shook his head slightly as he watched Marguerite leave. He didn't ask Marguerite what she was going to do, but it didn't mean that he wasn't curious. It was because he already knew what Marguerite was going to do, even though Marguerite didn't tell him.
Marguerite was suddenly in a hurry to find the magic potions that the Church of the Storm had stored in Flosinone. It was obvious that she needed them urgently.
The magic potions were obviously used to treat illnesses and injuries. It was easy to infer that Marguerite was going to use these magic potions to treat illnesses and injuries.
