"Suspected to be an alchemist. Is his mental strength strong?" The man in black sitting opposite Mr. Emmery seemed to have thought of something and muttered softly.
"That's right. He broke the Minor Illusion Formation, recognized the Paleides Formation, took the alchemy furnace, and had so many magic artifacts on him. I think the probability of this ambusher being an alchemist is very high. Also, when this person fought with my subordinates, he used a mental attack to knock them out!" Mr. Emmery said with certainty.
The man in black was silent for a while, then said faintly, "I think I know who this person is!"
"Who is it?" Mr. Emmery frowned.
"One of our own! He probably didn't know your identity, so he did this. After recognizing you through the Minor Illusion Formation, he didn't kill you. Don't ask too much about this person. As for the alchemy furnace, didn't you apply for an elemental strengthening potion from the organization last time? I can give it to you! "The man in black said flatly.
"He chopped off one of my subordinates' arms!" Mr. Emmery was stunned when he heard the man in black say this. He then said in a low voice, his tone full of dissatisfaction.
"Reattach the severed limb or biological modification. Choose one!" The man in black didn't hesitate to give his solution to Mr. Emmery's dissatisfaction.
"I want him to choose for himself!" When he heard the man in black mention biological modification, Mr. Emmery's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise.
"No problem. I'll give you three days. After three days, give him the Ecstasy Machine and send him to the same place!" The man in black said straightforwardly.
"I don't want to know this person's identity, but I want to be sure that this person won't expose me!" Mr. Emmery muttered to himself before deciding to ask.
"So what if your identity is exposed? So what if it's not exposed? Professor promised you that as long as you were loyal to him, he would guarantee the safety of you and your family no matter what! You should know very well how everything you have now came to be. Without Professor, there wouldn't be the wealthy merchant Mr. Emmery today! "The man in black said with a hint of mockery.
The man in black's mockery didn't anger Mr. Emmery. He stared at the man in black and said word by word, "I've been at Professor's beck and call all these years. Even if I don't have any merits, I've still worked hard!"
"Emory, you've undoubtedly contributed to the professor, but when has the professor ever mistreated you? Other than the riches and honor of this life, who gave you your current strength? Also, I don't mind telling you that Paquetta once suspected your identity. It was the professor who arranged for you to solve the problem! "The man in black said coldly.
"Do you mean …?" Emory was no fool. The man in black's words made him realize something, and his eyes instantly lit up with joy.
"Just follow the professor's instructions. Don't worry!" Without giving an affirmative or negative answer to Emory's question, the black-clothed man continued, "That's right.
Seeing that the man in black seemed to have acquiesced, the calm Emory could no longer hide the joy on his face. He nodded heavily and replied, "I'll send the silver coins and herbs to the Valencia Chamber of Commerce right away. I've also purchased a batch of the things that Professor asked me to purchase. I'll send them to the safe house as soon as possible!"
"Very good! Emperor Lauer once said that an army is trained for a thousand days to be used in a single moment. Now is the time for you to show your worth to Professor! "The man in black said with satisfaction.

"You want me to help you kill someone?" Connor frowned and looked at Marguerite who was sitting on the sofa with a dark expression.
"That's right! Connor, you have to help me this time. If you don't help me, I'll have to do it myself. No one knows what will happen when the time comes! Marguerite said coldly. Her tone was full of undisguised murderous intent.
After hearing Marguerite's answer, Connor couldn't help but squint his eyes and sit on the sofa opposite Marguerite. He had warned Marguerite last time, and Marguerite clearly understood his attitude. However, she made another request to him this time. It was obvious that the situation was very dangerous for her. If he didn't help her now, Marguerite …
Connor still valued his cooperation with Marguerite very much. If he didn't have Marguerite as a channel, he would have to find another channel. Unless absolutely necessary, Connor didn't want to give up so easily!
"Same old rules. If you want my help, tell me the whole story!" Connor weighed the pros and cons in his heart and finally decided to give Marguerite a chance.
As though she didn't expect Connor to be so straightforward, Margaret was somewhat surprised. However, she quickly organized her words and said, "You should already understand that I stayed in Loen because Elena wasn't willing to leave in such a dishonorable manner. Therefore, I became a thorn in the side of that old fellow, Edward. Not only did he transfer me away from my original post, he even arranged for an Arbiter named Walker to look for evidence against me!"
Perhaps because she understood Connor's character, Marguerite was very direct and honest. "I have to admit that this Walker is very capable, so I have to make sure that his mouth is shut forever!"
"Give me some time. I want to confirm your words!" Although he believed Marguerite's words, Connor was still very cautious.
However, to Connor's surprise, Marguerite rejected his request. She shook her head and said with a wry smile, "Connor, I can't give you time. If you don't agree to my request now, I'll have to do it myself the day after tomorrow!"
Connor didn't say a word as he stared intently at Marguerite's face. He was waiting for Marguerite to give him an explanation.
"I just received the news that a guy who knows that I'm learning Blood Witchcraft will come to Loen the day after tomorrow to meet with Walker. Therefore, if I don't kill both of them, I'll be done for. Besides, that old bastard Edward wants me to go on a mission the day after tomorrow!" Marguerite didn't avoid Connor's question. Her beautiful eyes were filled with madness. It was obvious that she was desperate.
"Time, location, and opponent's strength!" Connor pondered for a moment before saying.
Connor felt very bitter. He knew that he had two choices in front of him. He could either help Marguerite get through this difficult situation, or he could kill Marguerite in his apartment to silence her. Otherwise, regardless of whether Marguerite succeeded the day after tomorrow, Marguerite might very well be discovered by the Church.
