When he thought of this, Connor felt a lump of resentment in his chest that he couldn't vent. At this moment, Varga, who had rushed over to help, finally arrived at Connor's side.
When he saw Connor's pale face and tottering appearance, as well as the traces of battle on the ground, Varga instantly understood what had happened. He felt as if a knife had been twisted in his heart. He hurriedly supported Connor and asked with concern, "Connor, are you alright?"
When he saw Varga's arrival, Connor didn't feel the need to hold on any longer. Although he was seriously injured, he forced a smile on his face. He squeezed Varga's soft, jade-like hand and said in a low voice, "I'm fine. We shouldn't stay here for long!"
Although he said that he was fine, Connor's body still leaned weakly against Varga's delicate body. When he saw Connor's state, Varga's expression changed. He immediately wanted to check on Connor's body. However, Connor was afraid that Diego Lopez would come back and attack, or that there might be some henchmen nearby. Therefore, he immediately stopped Varga's actions.
When he saw that Connor had already made his decision, although Varga was worried about Connor's body, he didn't go against Connor's wishes. He immediately erased the traces of battle and quickly left with Connor.
Twenty minutes after Connor and Marguerite left, a middle-aged woman with a seductive figure wearing a red veil arrived. She carefully surveyed the surroundings, but couldn't find anything.
"According to what Diego Lopez said, even if Connor Ferguson didn't die, he must have been seriously injured. How could he have cleaned up the surroundings so cleanly? Not a single trace of him could be found."
The middle-aged beautiful woman muttered to herself in disappointment. After saying that, she still didn't give up. She looked around more carefully, trying to find the direction of Connor's escape. But unfortunately, although she had tried very hard, in the end, it was still in vain. Seeing this middle-aged beautiful woman, she could only shake her head helplessly and sigh, "Don't worry, it's too late to find Connor's escape route.
"The student of the Secret Society's professor is indeed not that simple …"
… ….
… ….
At this moment, Conor Ferguson, who had avoided a calamity by relying on his own cautiousness, was currently hiding in a nearby cave with Valga. They hadn't returned to the Ferguson Manor according to their previous agreement.
Although they still didn't know who had attacked Connor, everyone knew where the Ferguson Manor was. The Ferguson Manor was just an ordinary manor. Although it had some defensive measures and the Ferguson Family's Knights as guards, those were only used to deal with ordinary people. They didn't have any ability to resist a battle between wizards.
Now that Connor was seriously injured, if he returned to the Ferguson Manor and was attacked again, not only would it be difficult for him to protect himself, but the ordinary members of the Ferguson Family would also be implicated. Therefore, Connor didn't return to the Ferguson Manor with Varga. Instead, he found a cave in the wilderness where no one knew where to hide.
Although the conditions in the cave were simple, Connor could rest quietly and receive treatment from Varga. On the other hand, it was very safe. Connor didn't believe that the guy called Diego Lopez and his possible henchmen would be able to chase him all the way here.
From Connor's point of view, although his injuries weren't light, they were only caused by the cursed weapon. Diego Lopez, on the other hand, not only bore the brunt of the damage from using the cursed weapon, he had also been hit by several Spirit Storms and the Spear of the Underworld King. His injuries would only be more serious than Connor Ferguson's. He was probably in the same situation as Connor Ferguson, hiding somewhere to recuperate.
Although he didn't need to worry about Diego Lopez, Connor had a secret worry in his heart. He and this guy called Diego Lopez didn't have any grudges in the past, nor did they have any enmity. They'd never met before today, but now that they'd met, they'd fought to the death. It was obvious that this Diego Lopez had been instructed by someone to find trouble with him.
From Diego Lopez's valiant methods, Connor felt that he wasn't a lone wolf. He was most likely working for some Magus organization. Therefore, since this Diego Lopez's attack had failed, the other party might send a second wave of people to attack him. This was also the main reason why Connor had insisted on not returning to the Ferguson Manor!
At this moment, compared to Connor's uneasy state of mind, Varga's was much simpler. She was interlocking her fingers with Connor's as she checked his body. After checking for nearly half an hour, Varga finally opened her eyes and let out a sigh of relief. She then took out a pill with a faint fragrance from her space ring.
"Open your mouth!"
Varga sent the pill to Connor's mouth, then said fiercely to Connor, "Don't be like this.
Seeing Varga like this, Connor blinked, then obediently opened his mouth and swallowed the pill that Varga gave him. Although the pill that Varga fed him this time didn't have an immediate effect like the previous potion, it quickly melted in Connor's lower abdomen as he meditated. A warm current flowed through his body, nourishing Connor's body that was injured by the cursed weapon.
"Ah!"
As the warm current flowed through his body, Connor, who was cultivating with his eyes closed, couldn't help but let out a soft cry of comfort. Seeing Connor like this, Varga nodded slightly. This time, although Connor was seriously injured by the cursed weapon, fortunately, during her previous treatment, the injuries that Connor suffered in the underground palace in the Navas Forest had been suppressed, although they hadn't fully recovered yet.
Therefore, Connor's new injuries this time didn't trigger Connor's old injuries. Therefore, although Connor's current injuries were serious, they weren't too troublesome for a pharmacist like Varga. With her treatment and a few days of rest, Connor would be fine.
After observing Connor's condition for a while and making sure that Connor was fine for the time being, Varga stood aside and began to make medicine. Although this cave was hidden and safe, it was still a little inconvenient for a pharmacist like her. She had a lot of medicine refining tools that she couldn't put in her spatial ring, so she didn't bring them with her. Instead, she left them in Ferguson's manor. Therefore, she needed to spend a lot of time on Connor's treatment.
