Perrin's eyes were filled with fear as he glanced at Connor who had broken free from the fire mist. Like Walter, he was well aware of how powerful the fire mist from Walter's Runic Umbrella was. The Runic Umbrella would only accumulate enough fire elemental energy particles to form a fire mist once every year. With this method, Walter had defeated many enemies. The reason why Walter dared to barge into the factory despite knowing that it was a trap was largely because of this method.
In fact, Perrin was already surprised that this unknown black-robed masked man could last so long in the fire mist. Now that this guy had come out of the fire mist, there was no need for Walter to say anything. Perrin wasn't a three-year-old kid. He knew very well that if he didn't want to die, there was only one chance in front of him, and that was to run! The faster he ran out of this abandoned factory, the safer he would be!
Perrin took a deep breath and let out a roar. Following his roar, the sea of fire in the factory suddenly surged with huge waves of fire that were two meters tall. They slapped towards Connor and Marguerite respectively. Under the cover of the huge waves of fire, Perrin quickly helped the heavily injured Walter up and ran out of the factory.
"Trying to escape?" Connor sneered. He naturally knew what Perrin and Walter were up to as soon as the waves of fire appeared. Connor exchanged glances with Marguerite. With a thought, he cast the Castilla Enchantment again to block all the waves of fire. With Connor's help, Marguerite, who had nothing to worry about, immediately focused on casting her spell. Ice elemental energy surged through her body.
The moment the factory door appeared in Walter's and Perrin's vision, the two advanced Sorcerer-Apprentices of the Serta Sect revealed joyful smiles. They knew that once they got out of the factory door, they would have escaped the trap of this abandoned factory. From then on, they would be free from the pursuit of the two mysterious men.
Unfortunately, the joyful smiles on Walter's and Perrin's faces bloomed too early. When they were only five meters away from the factory door, under their gaze, a despairing ice wall condensed out of thin air in front of the factory door. It firmly sealed the factory door and completely extinguished Walter's and Perrin's hopes of escaping.
At this critical moment, Perrin's reaction was commendable. Seeing the ice wall, he did not panic at all. He immediately chanted a spell and gathered all the mana in his body. Under his efforts, more than ten basketball-sized fireballs formed around him in just a second. He then waved his magic staff and the fireballs all smashed towards the factory door.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Bang! Bang! Bang! The fireballs smashed onto the ice wall, but to Perrin's disappointment, even though his fireballs were powerful, they only blew up one-third of the ice wall. There was still two-thirds of the ice wall left waiting for him to destroy. However, when Perrin mustered up his courage to continue, he realized in despair that not far behind him, Connor and Marguerite had already broken free from the waves of fire and appeared not far behind him. If he wanted to attack the ice wall again, the two of them would definitely not just stand by and watch!
Perrin carefully guarded against the enemies in front of him while glancing at the heavily injured Walter beside him. He hesitated for a moment, but still asked in a deep voice, "Walter, how are you feeling now?"
Hearing Perrin's question, Walter's heavy injuries did not affect her thoughts at all. She immediately understood what Perrin was implying. "Perrin, if you can walk, then go alone. Don't worry about me!" she said in a low voice without any expression.
Perrin, who was not that thick-skinned, immediately blushed when he saw that Walter had seen through his true thoughts. He wanted to explain himself, but he did not say anything in the end.
Walter did not care about Perrin's thoughts. Instead, she focused all her attention on Connor who was wearing a black robe and a mask not far away. Her intuition told her that the man who lured her and Perrin here from Ferguson's apartment on Rand Street was the mastermind behind everything!
Walter looked deeply at Connor and said bitterly, "Since things have come to this, my partner and I admit defeat! My partner and I can swear under the witness of the Eye of Arbitration that we will no longer covet the Saita's Heart in your hands. We will also not tell anyone about what happened today! "
Although Saita's Heart represented her only hope of becoming an official Magus, the situation in front of her was very clear. She was heavily injured, and Perrin could not do anything by himself. The two of them had the upper hand, and Perrin was not on her side in this desperate situation. He intended to abandon her and escape alone. If they could not make peace and reach an agreement that would allow them to live, Walter would definitely die in this deserted factory today regardless of whether Perrin could escape or not!
Compared to death, losing the chance to become an official Magus was not that unacceptable! Walter had to admit that she had no hope of getting Saita's Heart in this situation! Perrin's expression changed after hearing Walter's words. However, he did not refute Walter's words and acquiesced to Walter's conditions.
Walter's premonition was not wrong at all. After she gave in, Marguerite hesitated for a moment before looking at Connor. She gave Connor the right to make the final decision. The reason why she and Connor stood here and did not attack immediately was because they were still a little afraid of Perrin and Walter's methods.
In Marguerite's eyes, Perrin and Walter's methods were not to be underestimated. Whether it was Walter's Fire Mist or Perrin's Sea of Fire, even though she and Connor had the upper hand, they still caused a lot of trouble for her and Connor, almost causing them to fail miserably!
