"Politano was arrested by the Church of the Storm in Kaiserslautern Castle when he attended an underground gathering among the dark wizards. At first, the local church thought Politano was just a small fry and didn't pay much attention to him. They simply interrogated him about his identity, the source of his meditation technique, and his relationship with the wizards. Then, they imprisoned him and prepared to execute him secretly. However, a month after Politano's arrest, the secret prison of the Church of the Kaiserslautern Castle where Politano was imprisoned was suddenly attacked by three wizards. These three people were powerful and fast. In less than a minute, they killed the three arbiters guarding the secret prison, including two intermediate wizard apprentices."
"In order to cover up their real target, the three mysterious wizards released all 15 prisoners in the secret prison, including Politano. However, they didn't expect that the church would still capture the scene …" A strange smile appeared on Marguerite's pretty face. She then stretched out her finger and drew a line in the air. The light screen released by the Image-Recording Orb immediately sped up the scene of Politano being interrogated to an abnormal angle.
There were four people in this scene. One of them was Politano, and the other three were in black robes. Two of the faces of the three were covered by the black robes. They seemed to be working for the church. They supported the weak Politano on both sides as they walked forward. The last person in the black robe seemed to be the steward of the three black-robed men. This man had a slightly stooped figure, and most importantly, his face was not covered by the black robe. Although only the side of his face was shown, Connor could still recognize that this stooped man was Reyes's steward, Old Victor, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.
Just like how she introduced Bisping, Marguerite pointed at Old Victor on the screen and said, "The church hasn't confirmed who he is yet, but reliable sources tell them that this old man is a key figure in the Secret Society. He is deeply trusted by the members of the Secret Society. Given his identity as a member of the Secret Society, the church has reason to believe that this prison break was done by the Secret Society. "
"The prison break immediately attracted the attention of the local church in Kaiserslautern. An hour after the prison break, they immediately carried out a detailed search. However, Politano and the three black-robed men from the Secret Society disappeared without a trace, as if they had never appeared in Kaiserslautern. Until now, two months later, the church still hasn't found any trace of them. The Secret Society, the Secret Society, is really something!" Marguerite couldn't help but sigh at the end of the introduction.
"Politano won't implicate the Ferguson family, will he?" Although he really wanted to ask about Old Victor, in order to not arouse Marguerite's suspicion, Connor suppressed his impatience and put on an attitude of concern for his family.
"You don't have to worry about that. The church isn't full of useless people. In these two months, the church has found out a lot of things. Politano's family has been in decline for decades and has very little contact with the Ferguson family. Twenty years ago, they sold their family's property in Flosinone and moved to Kaiserslautern. After that, they no longer have any contact with the Ferguson family."
"So, although Politano practices the fire element meditation technique passed down in the Ferguson family, he won't implicate the Ferguson family. After all, the Empire's Senate is still controlled by you, the hereditary nobles. The church is also very difficult to deal with!" Facing Connor's question, Marguerite answered very patiently. She didn't seem to notice that Connor himself didn't care much about the question.
Hearing Marguerite's explanation, Connor forced a smile on his face, but he seemed to have suddenly thought of something. After pondering for a moment, he said to Marguerite solemnly, "What do you want to tell me? What does the Enchanted Knight and the secret society have to do with this Politano you just showed me? "
'It's meaningless if I tell you the answer. Connor, I believe you will find the answer yourself!' Marguerite's smile became brighter and brighter. She even clenched her fist and made a "go for it" gesture to Connor, which was out of character!
"You can let me find the answer myself, but you should at least give me some hints, right?" Seeing Margaret cheering for him instead of her usual aloof image, Connor didn't know whether to laugh or cry as he said, "That's right.
"Hints … I can give you one, and that is, although the Enchanted Knight, the secret society, and Politano are essentially related, the secret society and the Enchanted Knight, as well as the secret society and Politano, are all independent!" After hesitating for a moment, Marguerite gave Connor a hint after letting Connor find the answer himself.
"They are both related and independent?" Hearing Marguerite's hint, Connor couldn't help but frown. He didn't quite understand the meaning of Marguerite's hint.
Looking at Connor who was deep in thought, Marguerite smiled and pointed to the screen on the Image-Recording Pearl. "Connor, when you find the answer, I'll show you the remaining video of Politano's interrogation that I just skipped!"
"What do you mean? Is there something wrong with the remaining video of Politano's interrogation? " Connor, who hadn't recovered from Marguerite's hint, immediately fell into another question from Marguerite.
"Connor, I'm not in a hurry to use the magic stones now. I suggest that you put all your energy into this matter. You can put the matter of the magic stone mine aside for now. Anyway, the magic stone mine in Tunguska won't run away! It's almost dawn, so I'll leave first. See you next time! " With a sly smile on her face, Marguerite left under Connor's gaze, leaving behind a pile of questions for Connor in the secret stronghold of the church.
"The secret society!" Watching Marguerite's figure disappear into the night outside the secret stronghold, Connor muttered to himself in a low voice that only he could hear.
Connor Ferguson wasn't a fool. The secret society and the Enchanted Knight, the secret society and Politano. There was no doubt that the secret society was the main character in these two matters. Marguerite deliberately emphasized the secret society in front of him. Could it be that she had discovered something?
