If being corroded for ten seconds was already to this extent, then what if Connor's reaction was a little slower, and he was not corroded for ten seconds, but ten minutes? Then what would the situation be like now? Thinking of the terrifying consequences of having his spiritual force completely corroded, Connor felt a chill run down his spine and into his brain, causing him to involuntarily shudder.
What scared Connor the most was that he did not feel the slightest bit of abnormality when all this happened. If not for the alarm of the auxiliary A.I. Chip, he would not even know how he died!
Looking at the "book", Connor's eyes were filled with deep fear. He realized that he seemed to have underestimated the use of this "book". Apart from hiding the stone, this book seemed to have some other uses. That stone was the source of radiation, and the radiation it emitted towards spiritual force was so strong, yet it was hidden in this book, and he could not feel any radiation at all. What made Connor even more suspicious was that according to the common knowledge of alchemy, the stone in the book, which was such a terrifying source of radiation towards spiritual force, could not silently corrode a Magus' spiritual force. The intense pain brought about by the erosion of spiritual force would immediately descend upon the Magus' body.
And now, the stone hidden in the book was actually able to go against the common knowledge of alchemy and achieve this. Connor could not help but wonder how it was done.
Taking out a metal rod that was flashing with a bright red light from his space ring, Connor held this metal rod in his hand and placed it on the book that hid the unknown source of radiation, and began to carefully examine it.
Connor believed that the reason why the stone was able to go undetected during the process of him using the "Magnetic Spirit" was very likely related to this book. He needed to find evidence from this "book" that could confirm his conjecture!
Under Connor's control, the metal rod slowly slid across every part of the "book". The bright red light on the metal rod gradually turned into a faint yellow light during this process.
Seeing the appearance of the yellow light, Connor squinted his eyes and took out a small bottle from his space ring. Then, he poured out the white powder from the bottle and evenly covered the "book". After a few seconds, the originally white powder also turned yellow.
Looking at the yellow powder on the "book", Connor sank into deep thought. After a long while, a murderous intent flashed in his eyes, but this murderous intent quickly returned to normal.
With a light wave of his hand, a gust of wind blew the powder on the "book", and it immediately disappeared with the wind. Connor then did some processing on the "book" to remove the traces of his own examination. After taking a deep look at it, he placed it into his space ring.
The appearance of this "book" strengthened Connor's confidence to strike first. Although his examination did not completely analyze the refining method of the "book", Connor detected a few precious alchemy materials that could confuse mental strength and cut off radiation. Theoretically speaking, the combination of these materials could possibly seal the radiation emitted by the radiation source within the book. Moreover! Once the radiation sealed within the book was shrouded by a special field related to magnetic energy, it would be magnetized. The magnetized radiation could completely erode the mental strength of a Magus without him noticing. When the Magus realized that his mental strength was being eroded, the only thing he could do was to obediently wait for his death!
After discovering this, Connor could not help but think that the so-called "book" was actually a trap set up by Old Victor. Old Victor knew that he would definitely not be able to resist the urge to check what he had taken. And the most suitable method to check this "book" was undoubtedly the "magnetic spirit" that Reyes gave him.
"Old Victor, since I'm not dead, is it time for you to die?" In the empty basement, Connor's lips curled into a cruel arc as he muttered to himself, "Old Victor, I'm not dead yet.

"Ding! Ding! "
"Is Mr. Connor at home?"
A week later in the morning, a glamorous woman in a blue dress appeared in front of the private apartment on Lander Street in the Loen East District and pressed the doorbell of the apartment.
Ten seconds later, Connor opened the door with the "book". He glanced at Martina who was standing at the door. Without saying a word, he directly threw the "book" in his hand at Martina. Then, he ignored Martina who was in a daze and closed the door without any hesitation throughout the entire process.
She reached out and took the "book" that Connor threw over. After sizing it up, she resentfully put the book into her handbag under the surprised gazes of the passers-by on the street. Then, she turned around and left Lander Street. However, she did not really leave. Half an hour later, Connor who was sitting in the quiet room on the second floor of the apartment frowned slightly and walked to the first floor.
"Connor Ferguson, do you know what you're doing? Are you crazy? "
A minute after Connor walked down to the first floor, Martina, who had climbed over the wall behind Connor's apartment, entered the apartment and walked to the front of Connor. Her pair of beautiful eyes stared fiercely at Connor as she gritted her teeth and questioned him in a low voice.
"I really didn't expect that you would still have the face to see me!" Looking at Martina who was standing in front of him, Connor said coldly. He did not hide the murderous intent on his body at all.
Sensing the murderous intent on Connor's body, Martina's eyes flashed with a strange color that was hard to detect. However, this strange color was quickly concealed by Martina. She pretended to be surprised and asked, "What happened?"
"What happened?" Connor was so angry that he laughed. In the next moment, he suddenly went berserk. In a situation where Martina did not expect at all, he suddenly jumped into Martina's arms. His big hand directly grabbed Martina's slender white neck.
"Now do you know what happened?" Connor's gaze was cold as he looked down at Martina whose neck was being grabbed by him. He gradually increased the strength in his hand. Martina's fair face immediately flushed with an abnormal shade of red.
"Connor … You … Calm down, don't … be impulsive!" Martina, who was having difficulty breathing, said with difficulty. She really did not expect that Connor would really attack her without caring about her identity. Under normal circumstances, with the combination of enchanted items given by the secret society, even if she could not defeat Connor, she would not be directly subdued by Connor like this.
