After killing Scarface, Connor and Marguerite did not immediately return to Loen due to their injuries. They both chose to recuperate in Tunguska for a period of time. In order to express his trust in Marguerite, Connor, for the first time, took the initiative to take Marguerite to see the magic stone mine under the reeds of Lake Mercedes in the suburbs of Tunguska.
Seemingly aware of Connor's trust in her, Marguerite, who had been giving Connor a hard time after killing Scarface, seemed to have softened her attitude towards Connor.
"I will need about a month to crack the spiritual imprint on Scarface's ring. After I crack it, I will inform Leonie to contact you!" Sitting on the train from Tunguska to Loen, Connor explained to Marguerite in the carriage.
"Oh!" Marguerite replied indifferently. It seemed that she didn't care about the items in the space ring of Scarface, the advanced Sorcerer Apprentice who had almost forced her and Connor into a desperate situation. During these days of recuperation in Tunguska, she had never mentioned Scarface's space ring to Connor.
Marguerite's beautiful eyes turned, as if she had thought of something. She took out the silver cross sword that originally belonged to Scarface, which Connor had given her from her space ring and handed it to Connor.
"What are you doing?" Looking at Marguerite's actions, Connor frowned slightly. Although he also coveted this powerful silver cross sword, this cross sword was given out by him. If he took it back, wouldn't he be slapping himself in the face?
Seeing the reluctant expression on Connor's face, Marguerite rolled her eyes at him and said, "What are you thinking? If I use this thing like this, it will be easy for people to find out that it has something to do with Scarface. Connor, you are an alchemist. Can you help me change this appearance?"
Understanding Marguerite's meaning, Connor smiled embarrassedly and took the silver cross sword. After carefully inspecting it for a while, Connor said solemnly, "If you want to ensure that the appearance is different, I can give it a try. But I can't guarantee success!"
"Okay!" Marguerite nodded casually and said somewhat absent-mindedly, "Isn't your magic staff damaged? In return, I can provide you with alchemy materials to repair your magic staff. Give me a list! "
Looking deeply at Marguerite, Connor said meaningfully, "Marguerite, what are you up to? You should know that my magic staff is a level two magic item. It is severely damaged. If you want to repair it, you will need a lot of alchemy materials!"
Seeing that Connor was questioning her intentions, Marguerite bit her red lips and said with gritted teeth, "I took the cross sword and didn't want to owe you a favor. Since you don't know how to appreciate favors, then forget it!"
Feeling that Marguerite's words seemed to make sense, Connor immediately changed his expression and said with a smile, "Don't forget it, I'll give you a list right now!"
After Connor finished writing the list, Marguerite said that she didn't want it, but her body honestly put the list that Connor had made into her spatial ring.
After several hours of travel, the steam train carrying Connor and Marguerite, as well as hundreds of passengers, was allowed to enter Loen North Railway Station.
Seeing that they were about to separate again, Connor hesitated and said, "Marguerite, there are so many materials for this one. Be careful. It's better to be slow than to be in a hurry!"
Marguerite still took Connor's reminder to heart. She nodded at Connor, then put on a black cloak and disappeared into the crowd of people coming and going at the railway station!
After calling for a taxi, Connor took the carriage to his luxurious apartment in Loen East.
After carefully checking the various traps he had set up in the apartment, Connor nodded in satisfaction after finding nothing out of the ordinary. He then walked up to his alchemy workshop on the second floor of the apartment. Although Scarface was also an advanced apprentice of the Benfica Secret Order, he was more powerful than Snake Eye. However, because Scarface was a body-refining wizard, his spiritual brand in his portal ring was similar to Snake Eye's.
The reason why Connor could open Snake Eye's ring so easily last time was largely because Snake Eye had been dead for more than half a year. The spiritual imprint in his spatial ring had not been nourished, and as time passed, the energy gradually disappeared. But this time was different. Scarface had just died not long ago, and the spiritual imprint in his spatial ring was not much different from when he was alive. However, Connor was no longer the same as when he had just stepped into the intermediate Wizard Apprentice level. In addition, he now had the Silver Light Pendant, a magic item that could greatly increase the power of the Will.
According to Connor's estimation, he would need about a week to remove the spiritual imprint on the spatial ring. Connor told Marguerite that he would need a month, and naturally, he had his reasons. Connor's goal was to find the place where Scarface stored the inconvenient items.
Odin Blood Tiger was a living body, and ordinary spatial equipment such as spatial rings could not contain living bodies. This was the common knowledge of the Wizard World! Connor did not think that Scarface's spatial ring was advanced enough to contain a living body, so Odin Blood Tiger was most likely hidden in the place where Scarface stored the inconvenient items!
Connor used Spirit Manipulation to capture Scarface's memory fragments. The place where Scarface stored the inconvenient items was in a hidden hill in Osasuna, a medium-sized city about a hundred kilometers northwest of Loen. He had set up a very powerful magic circle there, which had a high degree of concealment and defense. The key to opening the magic circle was Scarface's own spatial ring!
Therefore, Connor told Marguerite to allocate the one month's time in this way. One week to open the spatial ring, and the remaining three weeks would allow Connor to go to Osasuna and find the items hidden by Scarface!
At the thought of Odin Blood Tiger hidden by Scarface, Connor's heart could not help but burn with passion. Killing and robbing was indeed the best way to accumulate wealth. Connor originally thought that Odin Blood Tiger was not fated to be with him, but he did not expect Scarface to appear and forcefully link him with Odin Blood Tiger. As long as he successfully found Odin Blood Tiger, Connor felt that with Odin Blood Tiger's intelligence, it would most likely sign an equal partnership contract with him under threats and promises!
