As soon as Humail touched the restriction on the card, she didn't even have time to ask why the other party was contacting her. The deep voice came from the card. "You're right.
"The person I arranged for is in your hands!"
Humail was struck dumb for a second. After thinking for two seconds, he said, "You must have made a mistake. I didn't arrange for anyone to target you …"
Humail seemed to have thought of something. His eyes lit up, and he asked in a low voice, "What does your person look like?"
"The one you just caught is!" The deep and low voice from the card didn't have the slightest intention of talking nonsense with Hummels and directly said:
Humail's face darkened when he heard that. He said with anger, "You arranged for your people to be in the Church of the Storm?"
"Hmph!"
A cold snort sounded from the card, and the deep voice sounded again.
"Don't tell me that the Church of the Storm doesn't arrange for people to be in my hands?"
Humail's expression was still ugly, but he didn't say anything else. Both of them knew that they had been fighting each other for most of their lives. Naturally, it was impossible for them to completely trust each other. Although they were in contact now, it was only temporary mutual interests and opponents.
After a long silence, Humail adjusted his mentality and asked again, "Who is that woman?"
"I don't know!" Although the voice in the card was still deep, for some reason, there was something different about it at that moment.
"Didn't you say that she's one of your people?" Humail was confused when he heard the answer. You're the one who's asking me for her, but you don't know who she is? Are you kidding me?
"She's from the Mara Society. I'm only here to help you, so I don't know who she is. I only know that she has a close relationship with that old bastard from the Mara Society. If that old bastard finds out that she's in your hands, he won't let you go …"
Humail remained silent when the deep voice mentioned the old bastard from the Mara Society, but there was a hint of fear in his eyes. After listening to the other party's answer, Humail remained silent for a while, then said helplessly, "She's already been sent to a secret prison. She's injured, but she's in good condition. Her life isn't in danger. I've already arranged for a pharmacist to treat her."
Although Humail didn't say it directly, the owner of the deep voice understood Humail's attitude through her words. He said indifferently, "It's not a big deal.
"Of course, I understand. You're the Red Cloaked Archbishop of the Church of the Storm, and the next Pope. You can't let this woman go. You'll become a laughingstock in the Church of the Storm!"
"But I've already told you how serious this matter is. You can do as you see fit. Where is that old bastard from the Mara Society? I won't be able to delay him for long."
Humail was a little angry at the other party's attitude, but he knew that the other party was telling the truth, so he suppressed his anger. He thought for a while, then said, "Do you know where the Church's secret prison is located?"
"I won't deny that I have spies within the Church of Storms, just like the ones you've planted on my side. However, those who know the location of your secret prison should only be at the level of an official Magus or above. I'm not as brilliant as Reyes!" In response to Hummel's obvious probing, the mysterious deep voice once again came out from the card.
Humail narrowed his eyes when he heard the other party mention Reyes's name. He thought for a while, then said in a low voice, "The secret prison is in the underground warehouse of Andersen Park. Arrange for people to break it out, but remember not to hurt Romero, who's stationed there. He's one of my men!"
"Humail, you're overthinking things. I only have one subordinate in Flosinone. Do you want him to raid your secret prison alone?" The voice from the card sounded a little dissatisfied.
"What about that woman's Mara Society companions? I don't think she came to Flosinone alone, right? "Humail sneered.
"Of course she didn't come to Flosinone alone. However, when she and her companions arrived at Flosinone, they were ambushed by Reyes's subordinates. Her companions died in battle while covering her retreat …"
Humail's expression changed when he heard this. He said in a cold voice, "Does this have anything to do with Reyes?"
In response to his question, there was no response from the card for the next few minutes. Seeing the other party's attitude, a cold glint flashed in Humail's eyes. He then continued, "If you want to take him away, then you'd better tell me exactly what happened!"
Humail's tone was very calm, but the meaning behind his words was very firm and unquestionable. A few seconds after he finished speaking, the deep voice from the card sounded again.
"It's nothing. The Mara Society ambushed Connor Ferguson, then were ambushed by Reyes's men. Not only were the men who ambushed Connor killed, but the woman was also implicated and was severely injured. If your people hadn't suddenly appeared, Reyes's subordinates, Southgate and Bisping, would have captured the woman and brought her to Reyes!"
When Humail heard this, she couldn't help but reveal a hint of doubt in her eyes.
From the story, why did Reyes's subordinates seem to be taking revenge for the Mara Society's ambush on Connor Ferguson? But wasn't it rumored that Reyes and Connor Ferguson, master and disciple, were at loggerheads?
After thinking for a while, Humail, who couldn't figure out the reason, slowly said, "You fought side by side with Reyes in your early years and founded the Secret Society together. Don't you know the relationship between Reyes and Connor Ferguson?"
The moment he asked this question, the card fell silent again. After a long while, just when Humail was getting impatient, the deep voice sounded again.
"I know you'll definitely ask me this, but I can't give you an answer to your question. I'm not afraid to tell you the reason. I can't see through Reyes. If you have the chance, why don't you ask Reyes face to face? Both of you are in Flosinone right now, and I believe you'll have the chance to meet soon …"
