Looking at the long-haired youth who used the vines to attack him, Connor couldn't help but squint his eyes. Varga had shown him a portrait of this person yesterday. He was Dr. Goursey's son and one of the targets of Connor's operation, Cevallos. Speaking of which, Connor had met this Cevallos once before.
He had a date with Varga at a bar near Green University. If Connor remembered correctly, this Mr. Cevallos had been a third wheel. Now, it seemed that Cevallos had known of his existence for a long time.
Connor was somewhat surprised by Cevallos's sneak attack. According to what Varga had said last night, Cevallos's injuries were very serious. His teacher, Goursey, had used all kinds of methods to only get Cevallos out of danger. He should still be in a coma. Therefore, when Connor sneaked into the villa, he didn't have to worry about Cevallos's situation. He only needed to set up a magic circle to trap and kill Dr. Goursey.
However, the current situation was obviously different from what Varga had said. The living Cevallos standing in front of Connor had a pale face and a weak aura, as if he had just recovered from a serious illness. However, from his sneak attack just now, not only was his mind clear, but he also maintained basic combat strength.
"Ding!"
Suddenly, a crisp sound rang out in the villa. The appearance of this sound immediately caused Connor's expression to change. With his keen spiritual perception, he could clearly feel that something in the villa seemed to have been sent out.
Glancing at the silver ring on Cevallos's hand, Connor's expression became very ugly. He regretted not subduing Cevallos after entering the villa and giving him a short time to react.
"I surrender!"
Sensing the aura of an advanced Apprentice from Connor, Cevallos, who was originally only an intermediate Apprentice, secretly sent a message to his mother while Connor wasn't paying attention. He then very straightforwardly threw all the magic artifacts, including the silver ring, onto the floor of the villa, then raised his hands high to surrender to Connor!
"Hmph!"
Although Cevallos was very tactful and straightforward, his little tricks under Connor's eyes inevitably aroused Connor's anger. Connor coldly snorted and released a mental attack towards Cevallos.
"Ah!"
Even though Connor had consciously reduced the power of this mental attack, how could Sevallos withstand it in his current state? Cevallos, who had just recovered from a serious illness, screamed in pain and fell to the ground. He held his head tightly with his hands in pain. His mouth, nose, ears, and eyes were bleeding. His face was twisted with pain, which made him look even more terrifying than he already was.
Connor picked up the silver ring that Cevallos had thrown on the ground and sized it up. Then, he indifferently looked at Cevallos, who was lying on the ground and not twitching because of the pain, and asked, "Who did you send the message to?"
It had to be said that Cevallos was very tactful. Although a hint of hatred flashed in his eyes, he still obediently said to Connor in a low voice, "To my mother! She'll be back here in about 20 minutes. "
"Connor, I think that the conflict between us is not irreconcilable. We can sit down and talk about it. My mother is a pharmacist in Gursey. A large portion of the potions in the Secret Society were made by her. The higher-ups of the Secret Society think highly of her. Please believe me, I'll make you satisfied …"
Cevallos' words were full of temptation, but before he could finish, Connor hit him again and knocked him unconscious.
Looking at the unconscious Cevallos lying on the ground, Connor sneered. He then took out the crystal alchemy bomb that he had made from his space ring and stuffed it into Cevallos' mouth. The bomb then went down his esophagus and into his stomach.
Even at this stage, Cevallos was still delusional enough to talk to him. He even used his mother, Dr. Gursey, to pressure him. He didn't even consider that since he, Conor Ferguson, had already killed his way here, there could only be two outcomes. Either he and his mother, Gursey, would die without a burial place, or he, Conor, would leave everything behind and flee to the ends of the world!
If Cevallos hadn't realized that this guy was still valuable, Dr. Gursey wouldn't have abandoned him. Connor was planning to end this guy's life, but it was about time. After swallowing Cevallos' Crystal Alchemy Bomb, as long as Connor willed it, Cevallos wouldn't even have a complete corpse, let alone live!
After dealing with Cevallos, Connor turned his attention to the magic array in the villa. After entering the villa, Connor could clearly feel the power of the magic array. According to Cevallos, his mother, Dr. Gursey, would only be back in twenty minutes.
Twenty minutes wasn't a long time, but it wasn't short either. If everything went well, Connor might be able to set up a magic array that could kill Dr. Gursey in twenty minutes.
Connor decided to make the best use of his time. However, after just five minutes, he made a preliminary analysis of the array formation in the villa. He couldn't help but feel helpless. The array formation in the villa was very complicated. Not only could it conceal the energy fluctuations in the villa, but it could also gather the energy particles between heaven and earth in the villa. It also had a certain offensive and defensive function.
If Connor was given enough time, Connor felt that he could try to crack this magic array and set up his own magic array. The success rate would be about 50%. But now that he only had twenty minutes, no matter how confident Connor was, he couldn't do anything.
Without any hesitation, Connor walked out of the villa. He took out a firework from his spatial ring and released it in the air. Looking at the dazzling firework in the sky, Connor took a deep breath and returned to the villa. This firework was the secret signal that he and Varga had agreed on. The appearance of the firework meant that the most ideal plan A had failed, and it was time to change to another plan.
