No one knew what crazy things Perrin and Walter would do in the face of certain death. If Walter could fulfill her promise, Marguerite felt that letting Perrin and Perrin off was a good choice!
After all, to Marguerite and Connor, killing Perrin and Walter, the two Selta Sorcerers, wasn't just the beginning. They still had to face the BOSS, Old Victor, in a short period of time. It wouldn't be worth it if they were injured in Perrin and Walter's counterattack!
Both Walter and Perrin felt a glimmer of hope when they saw the woman in the black iron mask looking at the black-robed man who used the mental attack. If things continued to develop like this, they would very likely die in this abandoned factory. What they were most afraid of was that the black-masked duo would attack them without any hesitation after Walter raised the price. If that happened, they would only be left with the option of fighting to the death. There would be no other way out.
Although the woman who used the ice elemental spell only looked at the black-robed Mental Sorcerer for his opinion and didn't agree to Walter's conditions, the two of them didn't attack them directly. This meant that it wasn't impossible for them to let them off. Everything wasn't settled yet, so there was still room for negotiation!
Seeing this, Walter quickly pondered for a while, and decided to add another dose of medicine. This time, she spoke in a more forceful tone. "The two of us are very clear about the current situation, and we don't have any hope left in our hearts. If the two of you really want to threaten us with death, the two of us can only accompany you to the end. We'll fight to the death, and we'll definitely drag one of you down with us before we die!"
In order to show her determination, Walter's voice became unusually sharp, as though she was ready to face death. Perrin wasn't a fool either. He clenched his staff tightly and cooperated with Walter to put up a desperate stance. The experienced Walter knew that even though she and Perrin were at an absolute disadvantage and desperately wanted to reach an agreement with the other party, they couldn't just compromise blindly. That would only make the other party think that they were at the end of their rope and had no strength to resist. Then, the other party wouldn't have any scruples and would attack them directly!
At times like this, they had to use both the carrot and the stick. They had to display their determination and ability to fight with their lives on the line at the same time, so that the other party wouldn't dare to humiliate them. Only then would they be able to survive this dangerous situation.
At this point, Walter continued to observe Connor and Margaret as he changed his tone, "My partner and I are not idle Magi with no background. Both of us are Magi from the Celta Sect. My partner's mentor and my partner's mentor are both official Magi. Not only that, my partner's biological brother is also an official Magus. He is even the next leader of the Celta Sect. Even if you two kill us today as you wish, you will have to suffer the endless revenge of the Celta Sect in the future!"
Hearing Walter's words, Perrin still looked at the two black-masked Magi fiercely, as if he was on the same side as Walter. However, he felt a little strange. His mentor and brother were both official Magi. Although his brother Corella had a high chance of becoming the next leader of the Celta Sect, he wasn't as sure as Walter. After all, his brother Corella was not the only new official Magus in the new generation of the Celta Sect!
Although it was true that Walter's mentor was an official Magus, her mentor had been dead for 30 years. He might have turned into a pile of ashes by now. Of course, although Perrin felt a little strange, he wasn't stupid enough to expose Walter's lie when Walter was trying to intimidate the other party.
Sensing Marguerite's questioning gaze, Connor narrowed his eyes. Under the cover of his black-iron mask, he secretly observed Perrin, who was so beautiful that he didn't even look like a man. The technical content of the Crystal Sealing Spell was in this person's head!
Under normal circumstances, if Walter's conditions could be fulfilled, Conor Ferguson would let the two Celta Sect sorcerers off the hook, especially when he was about to face Old Viktor!
However, there was something he wanted in Perrin's Spiritual Ocean. Obviously, for a proud and talented Magus like Perrin who was bound to become an official Magus in the future, it was impossible for him to accept the Spirit Summoning Spell, which could affect his future career as a Magus. It was more unacceptable than killing him! If he didn't use the Spirit Summoning Spell on Perrin, even if Perrin was willing to hand over the Crystal Sealing Spell, Connor couldn't be sure whether the Spirit Summoning Spell was real or not!
Looking at the silent Connor, Walter thought that he was considering his terms, and could not help but feel that the chances of reaching an agreement were much higher. In order to make Connor make the final decision, Walter clenched his teeth, and said, "As long as the two of you are willing to let us go, I am willing to hand over all the training resources in my spatial ring other than my magic artifact. Consider it my compensation to the two of you!"
Hearing how generous Walter was, Perrin glanced at Connor who was still in deep thought. Although he was filled with grief and anger, he had no choice but to lower his head under someone else's roof. Therefore, after hesitating for a while, he suppressed his heartache and agreed. "I'm willing to pay 3,000 Magic Stones as compensation to the two of you!"
Hearing the compensation offered by Walter and Perrin, Connor's face under the black iron mask showed a hint of playfulness. It seemed that these two people were richer than he thought. Thinking of this, Connor pretended to be in deep thought and hesitated to attract Perrin and Walter's attention. Meanwhile, he secretly made a hand gesture to Marguerite behind him.
After about ten seconds, Connor finally stopped thinking. He looked at Walter and Perrin who were staring at him and said, "Since you two are so sincere … then go to hell!"
