"Marguerite, are you sure you want to do this?" Just as Connor was thinking about how to refine an alchemical item that could house the undead in his new "Undead Entanglement" spell, in an apartment in the eastern suburbs of Loen, the charming store manager, Leoni, looked worriedly at the solemn-looking Marguerite in front of her.
At this moment, Marguerite's beautiful face was no longer as lively and playful as when she was in front of Connor. Instead, it was filled with solemnity. When she heard Leoni's question, she nodded with a wry smile. "This professor from the secret society is really too terrifying. There's no other way. I can only go to Dr. Goursey's private hospital to take a look myself!"
"Marguerite, I think I need to remind you that if your guess is right, Dr. Goursey's private hospital is a very important point in the secret society's entire line of operations. With the secret society's strength, their security there must be very tight. With your current strength, it's very likely that you won't find anything if you go there to investigate. Furthermore, you will alert the enemy!" Leoni calmly analyzed.
Upon hearing Leoni's analysis, Marguerite didn't look surprised. She sighed and said, "How could I not know this? But I have no other choice now. After the appearance of the Wraiths in the suburbs of the North District, I locked onto the Ruiz Steel Factory. I'm basically certain that the Ruiz Steel Factory is a place where the secret society processes that mysterious item!"
"And the appearance of the Wraiths in the suburbs of the North District is very likely due to the leakage of that mysterious item. I originally wanted to investigate further, but I didn't find any clues at all. I've already been to the Ruiz Steel Factory, but the secret society reacted very quickly. Even the nearby villages have been cleaned up. They're completely worthless!"
"There should be a few more secret societies in Loen that are responsible for processing and producing items like the Ruiz Steel Factory, but we don't know where these other places are. The secret society is really too secretive!" At this point, Marguerite sighed from the bottom of her heart.
"Is your insider's information about Dr. Goursey's private hospital accurate?" Leoni nodded solemnly. She pondered for a moment before asking, "What's the matter?"
After thinking for a while, Marguerite said in a deep voice, "This insider was left to me by Sister Elena. It's a very deep line. It's a line that the Church carefully buried in the Metropolitan Police Department. Before Sister Elena left, she told me that this line can be trusted!"
After a moment of silence, Leoni said in a deep voice, "I've never met this person before, but he told me that the accounts of typical private hospitals aren't very clean. There will be cases of theft, theft, and even corruption. However, the accounts of Dr. Goursey's private hospital are very clean. There's no problem at all!"
"After this insider noticed this situation, he personally went to Dr. Goursey's private hospital for a check-up. He discovered that although the entire hospital looked very simple, it was actually very complicated. It seemed to be hiding something. This person couldn't continue investigating because he wasn't a Magus. However, after he returned to the Metropolitan Police Department, he used his authority to investigate the information of Goursey's private hospital. However, he discovered that the information of Goursey's private hospital had been tampered with. The tampering took place on the third day of the Secret Society's plan!"
"Isn't Connor Ferguson a member of the Secret Society? Marguerite, should we see if we can get some information from him? "Leoni suggested after listening to Marguerite's explanation.
Hearing Connor's name, Marguerite's gaze softened. She gently shook her head and said, "Although I'm sure that Connor is a member of the Secret Society, Connor should be an external member that the Secret Society took in because of his future status as an Earl …"
Leoni took a deep look at Marguerite and said in a low voice, "Connor Ferguson practices a high-level meditation technique of the Spirit Element. Although the Ferguson Family has produced a Magus in history, he was a Fire Magus!"
Leoni's reminder made Marguerite fall into silence. After a long while, Marguerite's expression turned gloomy, and she finally said, "I don't want to get him involved, and I don't want to use him either!"
"He's a member of the Secret Society, and you're a member of the Church. The two of you are destined to have a bad ending. Besides, I think Connor Ferguson is a cold-blooded, scheming, and vicious person. He's definitely not the right person for you!" Leoni sighed as she held Marguerite's hand. She tried to persuade Marguerite.
"I understand, but … I really don't want to hurt him. If I use him as a breakthrough point, I'll definitely be able to get some information. However, if the Secret Society finds out that he was the one who leaked the information, based on their cruel methods, he'll definitely end up …" Marguerite said faintly. There was a hint of pity on her pretty face.
Seeing that Marguerite was truly moved, Leoni had no choice but to hold Marguerite's hand tightly.
"I'll take care of everything in Dr. Goursey's private hospital. The alchemy materials that Connor wanted have already been transported to Loen. They're in the Alpha Warehouse in the North District. Just tell Connor if he wants to see you!" Marguerite reminded her in the end.
"Don't worry, I'll tell Connor. Marguerite, you have to be careful too!" Leoni nodded.
After explaining everything to Leoni, Marguerite forced a smile at Leoni. She then turned and disappeared into the dark night. The direction she was heading towards was none other than Dr. Goursey's private hospital!
Under the cover of the night, Marguerite's figure quickly shuttled through the luxurious high-rise buildings in the East District of Loen. As she hurried, Marguerite pondered. This time, there were two main reasons why she wanted to personally go to Dr. Goursey's private hospital to investigate. The first reason was that although the connections and intelligence network that Elena had given her were very powerful, there weren't many wizards with cultivation. Among the few remaining wizards, Marguerite thought for a long time. She was the only one with the strongest concealment ability, so she was the most suitable person to go there secretly. After all, this time, she wasn't going to attack by force. She was going to spy for information, so concealment ability was the most important factor!
The second reason was that after fighting against the Secret Society for so long, she increasingly felt the horror and brutality of the Secret Society, as well as their pervasive infiltration of the church.
