Connor put on a mask he crafted himself while hiding in the shadows to monitor Emory. With the mask on, Connor's original appearance immediately turned into that of a young man with a hideous scar on his face. Connor nodded in satisfaction when he saw his current appearance. Although his mask wasn't as miraculous as the legendary human skin mask, ordinary people wouldn't be able to tell that he'd changed his appearance.
Connor didn't wait for long after changing his appearance. About five minutes later, Connor noticed that Mr. Emory, who was disguised as a middle-aged man, casually threw two items into his shopping cart before pushing it towards the checkout counter. Connor was puzzled by Emory's actions. He had been keeping an eye on Emory, and Emory didn't have any contact with anyone. Could it be that he was wrong, and Emory wasn't in contact with anyone else?
While Connor was still hesitating, Emory had already paid the bill and was about to push the shopping cart out of the Empire Department Store. He was about to leave Connor's line of sight. Connor quickly made up his mind and followed him. He was going to find out what Emory was up to today.
He quietly followed Emory, who was disguised as a middle-aged man, and turned left and right. Sensing that there were fewer and fewer buildings around him, Connor glanced at Emory, who was still walking forward more than ten meters in front of him. Connor scanned the surroundings and was instantly shocked. He had actually followed Emory all the way to the outskirts of the eastern district …
Upon realizing his current location, Connor hesitated. He wasn't sure if Emory was really heading to the outskirts of the city, or if Emory had discovered that he was tailing him and was intentionally leading him to the outskirts of the city to set up an ambush to kill him.
Connor followed him for a distance amidst his dilemma. When he realized that he was almost at the warning line from downtown Loen, and that there was no one around him, and that Emory was still walking forward without any intention of stopping, a look of determination flashed across Connor's face. He made a cautious decision — he wasn't going to follow him!
However, just as Connor stopped and was about to turn back, his expression changed abruptly. He sensed with his mental power that a dagger flashing with blue light was shooting towards his abdomen at an extremely fast speed!
The dagger was very fast. By the time Connor realized that it had appeared, he didn't have the time to take out Castile's staff from his spatial ring and release a defensive barrier. Although the situation was very dangerous, Connor's eyes didn't have the slightest trace of panic. He reached out and patted his black robe. The black robe immediately released a curtain of light to block the sneak attack of the dagger!
"Hiss!"
The dagger flashing with blue light seemed to be of extraordinary quality. The defensive light screen released by Connor's magic robe couldn't stop it for more than a few seconds. With a loud sound, the defensive light screen was completely destroyed. However, the few seconds the defensive light screen bought was more than enough for Connor. At that moment, Connor was already standing in the distance. He took out the Castilla Staff from his space ring and looked at a hundred-year-old tree in the distance with vigilance. As for Emory, who Connor had been following, he had already disappeared.
Under Connor's gaze, a figure wearing a bronze mask walked out from behind the hundred-year-old tree. When the man saw that his sneak attack had failed, he waved his hand and the extraordinarily powerful dagger returned to his hand!
Connor looked at the man with the bronze mask coldly. He was a cautious person by nature. Since he had already guessed that Emory might have noticed that he was following him and wanted to ambush him, how could he not have expected that the other party would brazenly attack him after realizing that he had given up on following him?
Although Connor was prepared, the power of the dagger that the other party used to ambush him really gave him a fright. The magic robe he was wearing was for his own use, so Connor had put in a lot of effort into its defensive properties. As a concealment item, the magic robe's defense was already pretty good among level-1 magic artifacts. It wasn't much worse than an ordinary level-1 defensive magic artifact, but even so, it wasn't enough to deal with the dagger. If Connor wasn't mistaken, this dagger should be a level-2 magic artifact, and a peak one at that!
After showing up, the bronze-masked man just stood there without saying a word. He just stood quietly on the edge of the big tree and confronted Connor. Connor squinted his eyes subconsciously as he looked at the bronze-masked man. Judging from his figure, it should be his first time seeing this person. However, he didn't know why, but he had a very familiar intuition about this guy in front of him.
All along, because Connor was a psychic wizard, his spiritual perception was very high, and the high spiritual perception also made Connor's intuition very accurate. Although he couldn't remember why he had such a familiar intuition about the man with the bronze mask, judging from the intensity of his intuition, this man who was hiding his figure seemed to be very close to him!
Realizing this, Connor was shocked. Not to mention Loen, even in this strange world, there were only a handful of people he was very close to, and no matter who it was, Connor didn't think that they would be similar to the man with the bronze mask in front of him in any way …
Reason told Connor that it was impossible, but his intuition was so strong. After struggling for a while, Connor decided to take the initiative to speak. He forced a smile on his face and pretended to be a little embarrassed as he said to the man with the bronze mask, "It's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding. I heard that the Loen wizard circle is very prosperous, so I came here from outside. I happened to see a friend just now, so I wanted to ask about him. That's why I acted like this … I have no ill intentions! I have no ill intentions! "
Although Connor didn't believe his own words, he didn't intend to let the bronze-masked man believe him. He took the initiative to talk to the bronze-masked man and see if the bronze-masked man could recognize who he was from his voice!
However, to Connor's surprise, the man in the bronze mask didn't answer him as he expected. Instead, the man in the bronze mask used his powerful short knife and slashed at Connor several times in a row, releasing several faint blue rays of light from the knife.
