Although the round-faced woman didn't say what she wanted to ask Connor, Connor seemed to have guessed what she wanted to ask. He waved his hand at the round-faced woman to stop her from asking any more questions. He squinted his eyes and said to her meaningfully, "Marguerite, I've never asked you before. You're a wizard from the Church of the Storm, so why did you learn blood witchcraft?"
After hearing Connor's words, the round-faced woman, who was actually Marguerite in disguise, rolled her eyes at him. However, to Connor's surprise, after a few seconds, Marguerite said to Connor, "Connor, if you want to know, I can tell you. You already know so many things anyway, so it doesn't matter if I tell you one more thing."
After hearing Marguerite's answer, a wry smile appeared on Connor's face. He shrugged at Marguerite and said, "Marguerite, I understand that you're curious, but I can't answer your question right now. However, I can promise you that I'll give you an answer before you kill someone for me."
Although she wasn't satisfied with Connor's answer, at least Connor had given her a promise, so Marguerite nodded and didn't continue to dwell on this question.
Looking at Marguerite, there was gratitude in Connor's eyes. Although he had escaped from danger this time, Marguerite was very considerate. She couldn't help but give Connor the things he wanted. She even stayed in a small wooden house on a mountain near the Senxi Villa District. According to their agreement, as long as Connor sent out a distress signal, Marguerite would help him.
Connor felt that Marguerite had helped him a lot this time, so he should give her something in return. After hesitating for a while, Connor decided to reveal some information to Marguerite.
"Marguerite, you have to be careful in the Church. Not only do you have to be wary of the Church, but you also have to be wary of the people in the Church who have ulterior motives." Connor whispered to Marguerite meaningfully.
Marguerite was only slightly taken aback by Connor's reminder. In the next second, a faint smile appeared on her face as she said softly, "The wind is dancing on the branches of the trees. The shadows are like leopards, swaying on the surface of the pond. The book stands alone, tall and lush, covering the world!"
Upon hearing Marguerite recite the poem, Connor didn't understand what Marguerite meant at first. He frowned slightly. He was reminding Marguerite that there were people from the secret society in the upper echelons of the Loen Church of the Storm. What was Marguerite up to by reciting a poem to him?
After some thought, Connor seemed to realize something. He recited the poem that Marguerite recited and rearranged the content of the poem according to the secret letter between him and Marguerite. But a second later, Connor was stunned.
The forty words that Marguerite recited seemed to be an ordinary poem describing the scenery, but in fact, the meaning of the poem was: "There's more than one oh!"
Connor sized up Marguerite's face. Marguerite smiled and nodded at Connor. Connor suddenly felt a little awkward. This was the information that he had presented to Marguerite, but he didn't expect that Marguerite had already known about it. Moreover, it seemed that Marguerite knew as much as he did …
After pondering for a while, Connor suppressed the urge to tell Marguerite that the current Loen Bishop, Eder, was a mole planted by the Secret Society in the Loen Church of the Storm, and that the Loen Secret Society's riot was used by the Secret Society to support Eder. Although Connor himself agreed with his guess, it was a serious matter after all. Firstly, Connor didn't have any solid evidence to prove his guess. If he told Marguerite about his guess, if something went wrong, it might harm Marguerite.
Secondly, no matter what, this guess involved the secrets of the Secret Society in Loen. As long as Connor told Marguerite, Marguerite would definitely be curious about how Connor came to this guess. This was because regardless of whether this guess was true or not, he must have known some secrets to be able to deduce this guess, and these secrets were obviously not something that an ordinary member of the Secret Society would know. Marguerite was already very curious about Connor's identity in the Secret Society. Now that he told Marguerite about this guess, it would undoubtedly intensify her curiosity. This wasn't something that Connor wanted to see.
Taking a step back, Marguerite already knew that there was a member of the Secret Society in the upper echelons of the Loen Church of the Storm, so she would definitely be more careful. Whether or not she knew that Bishop Eder might be the mole had already been reduced by a lot.
After making up his mind, Connor didn't say anything more about the mole in the Loen Church. Instead, he changed the topic and said, "There's a very strange guy in the Secret Society in Loen. He's only an intermediate Apprentice, but he can spy on you very secretly and avoid the detection of your mind power … Marguerite, you know that I'm a mind power wizard, but I was also tricked once. You must remember to be careful!"
Hearing Connor's description, Marguerite's eyes revealed a touch of disbelief. Having worked with Connor many times, she naturally knew that as a mind power wizard, Connor was powerful in terms of mind power and perception. However, what Connor said was a little too shocking. An intermediate Apprentice could spy on Connor secretly? This was crazy. If this information didn't come from Connor's mouth, Marguerite felt that she wouldn't believe a word of it!
"Connor, do you know this person's appearance, name, and other information?" Marguerite asked Connor with a serious expression. Connor's mind power and perception were definitely above hers. If Connor was tricked, she definitely wouldn't be able to escape.
After thinking for a while, Connor took out a crystal ball the size of a pigeon egg from his space ring. He casually engraved a few runes on the crystal ball, then threw it to Marguerite and said, "This person is called Paredes. He's Victor's assistant in Loen. I've already recorded his portrait on this crystal ball for you, but it's meaningless for you to remember his face. The Secret Society is very good at making disguise masks!"
