Although Marguerite's blade wheel was powerful, there were still too many Azedins in the community. They surged towards Connor and Marguerite like a tide, completely surrounding Connor and Marguerite.
Marguerite looked at Connor nervously as she carefully guarded against the group of snakes. She wanted Connor to come up with a solution. At this moment, the auxiliary chip's cold female voice was counting down in Connor's mind.
"Five … Four … Three … Two …"
When the auxiliary chip counted to 'two', Connor's expression changed. He immediately grabbed Marguerite's waist and pulled her into his embrace. He then released Castilla's protective barrier to protect himself and Marguerite.
The moment Connor released Castilla's magic staff, hundreds of Azedins pounced towards Connor and Marguerite. At this moment, a huge explosion suddenly erupted from the second floor of the underground palace. Boom, boom, boom, boom … The explosion released enough light and heat to corrode dozens of Azedins into nothingness in an instant. As for the remaining Azedins, they were all injured. The entire second floor of the underground palace could be said to be a mess. Flesh and blood flew everywhere. The hundreds of Azedins that had besieged Connor and Marguerite just now were now lying on the ground, screaming in pain.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Connor's eyes were full of pride. This was caused by the alchemy bomb that he, Connor Ferguson, had refined.
This time, Connor not only thought of a way to enter the underground palace, he also thought of a way to leave. He came up with two plans. One was the poisonous smoke that would last for five hours. He and Marguerite would be able to leave within five hours with gas masks on. Originally, Connor's plan of five hours was completely enough, but unfortunately, plans could not keep up with changes. No one would have thought that Marguerite would be tricked. If Connor had not been greedy and coveted Odin's Blood Pool, Marguerite might have really died here today!
Although this rescue of Marguerite's life was very successful, it also wasted several hours. Connor's original plan of leaving the underground palace within five hours completely went up in smoke. Fortunately, Connor had left a second option for himself. When he came in, he had already placed alchemy bombs at various locations along the way. Without the help of these bombs, the possibility of Connor and Marguerite escaping from the siege of hundreds of Azedins was very slim. Even if they were lucky and managed to escape, the price they would have to pay would be very heavy!
"How long do you want to hug me for?" Marguerite said coldly in Connor's ear.
Hearing Marguerite's words, Connor finally reacted. He was too busy admiring the power of his "work" that he was still tightly hugging Marguerite's soft and boneless body in his arms.
"I'm sorry!" Connor quickly put Marguerite down from his arms and smiled embarrassedly. He said apologetically, "Let's take advantage of this opportunity to leave quickly!"
She didn't reject Connor's suggestion. With Connor in front and Marguerite behind, the two of them ran wildly. Only a few Azedins attacked them along the way, but this wasn't a threat to Connor and Marguerite at all. It only took them about a minute to reach the stairs that connected the first and second floors of the underground palace, and then the two of them returned to the first floor of the underground palace. After returning to the first floor of the underground palace, Connor and Marguerite were completely relieved. Marguerite cast a spell to close the stairs.
With Marguerite casting a spell, they returned to the surface from the underground palace. Looking at the sun hanging high in the sky, Connor, who was in a good mood, couldn't help but take a deep breath. This trip to the underground palace with Marguerite was really full of twists and turns, but fortunately, it was more daunting than dangerous. He and Marguerite both returned to the surface safely.
"When do you need my help?" After Connor slowly exhaled the turbid air in his chest, Marguerite's voice entered Connor's ears.
Connor thought for a while and replied, "The earliest is a month later. I don't know when it will be slow. You can slowly recover. Don't worry!"
At this time, there was only about half a month left before the "one-month agreement" between him and Varga. Connor had already decided to wait until he finished talking with Varga before making the final decision on whether to kill Old Victor first. Even if he really decided to kill Old Victor, he had to find a good opportunity before killing him. Then, he would consider how to deal with the aftermath. These matters were also very important. He didn't want to waste a lot of energy and pay a huge price to kill Old Victor, only to lure out his mentor, Reyes. That would be a huge mess. The time needed to deal with these matters was also not short. It was already considered very fast if he were to kill Old Victor in a month's time!
After hearing Connor's words word for word, Marguerite nodded, indicating to Connor that she understood.
Thinking that he didn't seem to have anything to say to Marguerite, Connor waved at Marguerite as a farewell. Then, he walked towards the train station in Daka town. He was eager to return to Loen and have a good rest on the small bed in his apartment. Although this trip to the underground palace wasn't short or long, Connor had expended a lot of energy, making him extremely exhausted.
"Connor!"
After walking for about ten steps, Marguerite's voice rang in Connor's ears again. He thought that Marguerite had remembered something and called him. Without hesitation, Connor turned around. However, before he could react, he felt a fragrant wind rushing into his arms. In the next second, his mouth was blocked by a soft, fragrant object …
"Connor, thank you!" After a passionate kiss, Margaret whispered in Connor's ear. As soon as she finished speaking, she left Connor's arms without any hesitation, as though she had come without any warning.
Looking at Marguerite's back view in the distance, Connor touched his lips subconsciously. However, after a while, he shook his head and regained his calmness. He once again set foot on his own path.
