Although Walter's plan was great, the change in the situation was quite different from what she had imagined. Although Sandro wanted to break into Ferguson's apartment as quickly as Walter had planned, Conor Ferguson, the main culprit, did not show up at all. If Sandro could not find Conor Ferguson, he might not be able to get anything even if he ransacked Ferguson's apartment. If Sandro, the mantis, could not catch the cicada, then Walter, the oriole hiding behind the mantis, would naturally come up empty-handed as well!
After thinking for a few minutes, Walter shook her head under Perrin's gaze. She said in a low voice, "Don't do anything to Sandro for the time being. Keep the surveillance on Connor Ferguson's apartment. It's too important for Connor Ferguson to keep the item in his apartment since he hasn't been back for a long time. Let's not act rashly and alert him!"

"F * ck … F * ck …"
In the magic circle of the safe house, Connor looked at the crystal ball in front of him, which was still motionless. He cursed with a long face.
In the past five hours, Connor had tried all the possible alchemy, spiritual and spiritual methods that he could think of to open this crystal ball with the crimson gem.
The result was similar to what Connor had expected. The second layer of the Crystal Sealing Technique was indeed related to the soul. After Connor used the spiritual methods, the crystal ball did respond to Connor. However, because Connor's soul wasn't the original Connor Ferguson's soul, he still couldn't open the crystal ball.
Perhaps hundreds of years ago, the ancestor of the Ferguson family, Mr. Stephen Ferguson, who brought the crimson gem from the Selta Sect, had predicted that an outsider would use the blood of the Ferguson family to open the first layer of the Crystal Sealing Technique. Therefore, he designed the second layer of the Crystal Sealing Technique after the first layer of the Crystal Sealing Technique so that the gem would be completely in the hands of the Ferguson family.
According to Connor's experience after failing so many times, in order to successfully open the second layer of the Crystal Seal, which was the crystal ball in front of him, the normal way was to be opened by an Intermediate Apprentice Adept, and a member of the Ferguson family with a pure soul aura!
"There's no other way! I won't be able to take the gem out of the crystal ball in a short period of time. The Ferguson family shouldn't have any information about this gem. Those people from the Selta Sect are so persistent in pursuing this gem. Could it be that they know the function of this gem? Stephen Ferguson came from the Selta Sect, so it's very likely that the Selta Sect knows the function of this gem and the method of the Crystal Sealing Technique! "Connor thought to himself.
He was in a very awkward situation now. He knew that to open the second layer of the Crystal Sealing Technique, he needed the soul of the Ferguson family. However, he didn't have this ability. Therefore, to open the second layer of the Crystal Sealing Technique, he could only use violence to destroy the crystal ball and take out the gem. However, he couldn't do that with his current ability. Therefore, the only way for Connor to take the gem out of the crystal ball was to learn the method of the Crystal Sealing Technique and see if he could find the weakness of the Crystal Sealing Technique from the source. Then, he could break the Crystal Sealing Technique.
Thinking of this, Connor's attention shifted to the gem in the crystal ball again. Although he didn't know what the gem was, he didn't know what it was. What was its function? However, if a wizard organization like the Selta Sect was searching for it like a vicious dog, there was no doubt that this gem was a very important treasure. Perhaps, for this treasure, he could try to take some risks and find information about the Crystal Sealing Technique from the people of the Selta Sect.
Connor's eyes flickered. He was hesitant. Judging from the current situation where the Selta Sect was coming at him aggressively and Old Victor was sitting on top of the mountain to watch the tigers fight, no matter how he thought about it, hiding in the safe house was the best choice for Connor.
Although Connor could fight in a few days, he couldn't exert his full strength due to the injuries caused by the backlash of his mana. Moreover, during this period, Connor didn't dare to get injured easily.
。 Connor believed that if he was in his best condition and not injured, he could find out Alex Sandro's whereabouts and sneak attack him when he was alone and kill him. However, Connor was injured now. In addition, he was worried about his future recovery. Therefore, he didn't even know if he could defeat Alex Sandro, let alone kill him.
And if he were to hide for a while, he might be able to drag the Selta Sect away from Loen. Even if he didn't manage to drag them away, Connor could wait for some time to recover from his injuries from the backlash of his Dharmic powers. Then, the chances of him taking the initiative to attack would be very high! Besides, Marguerite would return from the Heart of Storm in a month. With the help of this collaborator, Connor would have a lot of confidence when facing the Selta Sect!
If he wanted to meet the Selta Sect in the near future and obtain the method of the Crystal Sealing Spell, he had to find a helper. He couldn't do it alone!
In addition to his injuries, the most important reason was the secret letter from Martina. She said that although Alex Sandro was only an advanced Sorcerer-Apprentice, there was a high possibility that he had accomplices. It was very likely that there were other Sorcerers from the Selta Sect lurking in the dark! Connor Ferguson might not even be able to defeat Alex Sandro, a Sorcerer of the same rank. In addition, there might be other Sorcerers from the Selta Sect. If Connor chose to do it alone, he would either be crazy or playing with his life!
Martina? Varga? Or the two of them together?
Thinking of helpers, Connor's first choice besides Marguerite came to mind. Two more names and three other choices came to mind.
From a suitable point of view, Varga was obviously more perfect than Martina to be Connor's helper. First of all, she was loyal to Connor, so Connor didn't need to explain too much to her. Second, her performance in the battle with the Kalarov couple was not bad. She wouldn't be a burden to Connor.
