"Emosson, are you alright?" Seeing Emosson's current miserable state, Martina immediately glared at Connor with some dissatisfaction. She then asked Emosson with concern, "Are you alright?"
Facing Martina's reproachful gaze, Connor didn't say anything. He shrugged helplessly, appearing very innocent.
"I'm fine. It's just that I've expended too much magic power and spirit, so I'm a little exhausted!" After taking out a few bottles of potions from his space ring and swallowing them, Emosson, whose complexion had slightly improved, said to Martina with a wry smile.
"Emosson, I'll return your things to their rightful owners!" Connor smiled as he held the dark purple silver needle that he had just seized from Emosson's hand with one hand. He then handed it back to Emosson.
Looking at the silver needle in Connor's hand, Martina furrowed her brows and asked Connor, "This silver needle was personally refined by Sir Professor as a reward for Emosson breaking through to become an advanced Apprentice Adept. How did it end up in Connor's hands?"
Connor didn't give Martina an answer to her question. Instead, he smiled without saying anything and handed the silver needle back to Emosson.
Looking at the dark purple silver needle in Connor's hand, then looking at the smiling Connor, Emosson took the silver needle that meant a lot to him from Connor's hand. He then lowered his head and said softly to Connor, "Thank you."
"You're welcome." Connor said with a smile. He then swept his gaze over the two of them and muttered to himself for a moment before continuing, "I've already set up the formation. It seems like there's nothing else for me to do here. I'll be going back to the villa first. Do you two want to go back with me?"
"You go back first!" Seeing that Connor wanted to go back first, Martina didn't stop him and directly said,
"Alright!" Seeing that no one wanted to look after him, Connor was a little surprised, but he still agreed. In the past few days in that dangerous villa, it could be seen that Martina and Emosson didn't trust him. No matter what, they wouldn't leave him alone. If that wasn't the case, he wouldn't have thought of contacting Marguerite through the formation. However, now that Martina allowed him to go back to the villa alone, it was a little strange.
Turning around and walking out of the textile factory, Connor who sensed the abnormality immediately raised his guard in his heart. He didn't try to contact Marguerite or do anything else. Instead, he obediently went straight back to the villa that was built with alchemy bombs. When Connor returned to the villa and his simple room, he didn't realize at all that a hunchbacked figure holding a walking stick appeared in the woods near the villa. From the travel-worn's travel-worn appearance, it seemed that the hunchback figure who had been following him for some time …
…....
…..
Connor stayed in the villa by himself for an entire afternoon. Martina and Emoson only hurried back in the evening. As soon as they returned, they immediately dragged Connor to a meeting with the three of them to discuss the matter.
"Kane, I've discussed with Emosson and we've decided to take action tomorrow. What do you think?" As soon as they sat down in the room, Martina directly asked Connor without beating around the bush.
"Take action tomorrow? The formation has already been set up. I don't have any problems here, but …? " After thinking quickly, Connor digested Martina's decision, then looked at Emosson who was sitting at the side.
"I'm fine. I'll be fine after a night's rest!" Emosson naturally knew what Connor meant when he saw Connor looking at him. He raised his eyebrows and said nonchalantly. At the moment, other than his face being a little pale, he didn't look like he had just been taught a lesson by Connor in the morning.
"Then let's do it! I don't have any objections. The sooner we get it done, the sooner we'll be done. I've had enough of this godforsaken place! "Connor shrugged nonchalantly, looking very confident.
Seeing Connor's attitude, Martina nodded and explained all the arrangements of the plan to Connor. "The plan is like this. Tomorrow morning, our people will lure Marguerite and a small team of arbitrators led by her into Zach Textile Factory. After entering Zach Textile Factory, Emosson will be responsible for luring Marguerite into the factory. You'll lie in ambush in the factory. Once Marguerite enters the factory, you'll immediately activate the formation. Then, the three of us will work together to kill Marguerite in the formation!"
"Wait a minute, I have a question!" Connor said with a serious expression. Then, without waiting for Martina to reply, he directly said, "Is there a mistake in your information? You didn't tell me that there's a small team of arbitrators by Martina's side? If I remember correctly, there are usually at least five arbitrators in a small team in Loen. Moreover, the strength of the team leader is definitely at the level of an advanced Apprentice Adept. If we were to deal with Marguerite alone, the three of us and the formation would definitely kill Marguerite. However, if there's a small team of arbitrators by her side, even with the help of my formation, the three of us might not be able to gain the upper hand! "
Although the expression on his face was serious, Connor was sneering in his heart. He, who had personally sent Mariano on his way, naturally understood why Martina and Emoson didn't include this small team of arbitrators in their operation plan. However, he now had to act as if he didn't know the whole story. He had to point out this problem. Otherwise, compared to the initial information about a small team of arbitrators, if he didn't stand out now, Martina, who already didn't trust him, might start to suspect him.
In response to Connor's question, Martina and Emoson looked at each other. Emoson then nodded at Martina, as if indicating that Martina could speak. Seeing this, Martina pondered for a moment and explained to Connor, "Our information isn't wrong. From the beginning, there's a small team of arbitrators by Marguerite's side. But Connor, you don't have to worry. First of all, the team leader of this small team of arbitrators has been beheaded a few days ago. As for the rest, Old Victor will arrange for someone to take care of them. The three of us only need to face Marguerite alone!"
"If that's the case, then I have no problem!" Connor nodded after receiving the explanation, but he changed his tone and continued, "But I'll put it bluntly first. If that small team of arbitrators appears, then our operation won't succeed. If that happens, don't blame me for running away!"
