When Martina's comforting words reached Tusam's ears, the gloominess on his face improved a little. After pondering for a while, Tusam asked Martina, "Martina, I can understand why you didn't let my two subordinates keep watch near Ferguson's apartment and wait for Connor to come back! But why didn't you let me do anything in Ferguson's apartment? "
Before Tusam could finish his words, Martina's cold and elegant face had an obvious look of surprise. She didn't seem to have expected Tusam to ask her this question!
Martina's surprised expression seemed to make Tusam a little unhappy. He nodded heavily and said in a deep voice, "I'm serious!"
"I remember that no matter if it's the information Old Victor gave you about Connor, or the information I told you about Connor, they all said that Connor is not only a Spirit Wizard, but also a very skilled Alchemist. Tusam, what are those so-called tricks that you mentioned? Are they the Phantom Orbs that Southgate refined?
"Let me tell you, Tusam. Your Phantom Orb is in Ferguson's apartment. No matter where you hide it, Connor's Spirit Power and his knowledge of Alchemy will let him discover the Phantom Orb's existence in the first second! When that happens, not only will your Phantom Orb fail to achieve our goal, but it will also alert the enemy! " In order to make Tusam give up on this extremely stupid idea, Martina's tone was very resolute and even had a hint of sarcasm.
"As far as I know, the professor of the Secret Society stayed in Loen for a while, and he is also an Alchemist!" Tusam didn't seem to be agitated by Martina's warning. He looked at Martina and said calmly,
Hearing Tussam's words, Martina's eyes narrowed. She realized that Tussam had been waiting for her here all along!
Martina looked deeply at Tusam and asked straightforwardly, "Tusam, what do you want to ask? Just say it directly. There's no need to beat around the bush with me!"
"Very good!" Seeing that Martina didn't evade his question and didn't beat around the bush, Tusam nodded in satisfaction. Then, he didn't waste any more time and directly asked the question he wanted to ask the most, "What's the relationship between Connor Ferguson and the professor? Why is Old Victor targeting Connor Ferguson? "
Although Martina had already somewhat guessed what Tusam would ask from Tusam's words, when she really heard Tusam's question, Martina's expression changed. After a long while, she sighed and said helplessly to Tusam, "Tusam, do you have to know this? With all due respect, knowing this might not be a good thing for you. You should know that this isn't something you should know. People who know too much usually don't end up well! "
Martina's warning didn't succeed in dissuading Tusam. Tusam touched his chin and said, "My biggest weakness is that I'm very curious. I know that some things may be dangerous, but I still can't help but want to know. Moreover, Martina, since you insist on me going with you to deal with Connor Ferguson, then this Connor Ferguson has something to do with me. How can I not know about his identity?"
Seeing that Tusam ignored her advice and insisted on knowing about Connor, Martina felt very helpless. She knew that during the battle in the swamp that day, Connor's powerful strength had made Tusam wary. That was why Tusam was so eager to know about Connor's identity and background. Thinking of this, Martina raised her head and looked at Tusam. Seeing that Tusam was looking at her like a torch, Martina's heart sank. She knew that if she didn't give Tusam an explanation today, there would be animosity between them!
After pondering for a while, Martina said faintly under Tusam's gaze, "I don't know how you know, but Connor is indeed the professor's student. His alchemy and spells were taught to him by the professor. This is also a large part of why he's so strong now!"
"Since Connor is the professor's student, then why would Old Victor try so hard to kill Connor Ferguson? I also heard that Old Victor is the professor's butler. After the professor graduated from Turin College, Old Victor has always been by his side. He has always been very loyal to the professor, isn't he? "Tusam asked with confusion in his eyes.
"I'm not very clear about the specific reason, but I'm sure that the professor must have tacitly approved of Old Victor's actions behind the scenes. There's even a possibility that Old Victor's actions towards Connor were directly instructed by the professor!" Martina hesitated for a while, but still opened her mouth to speak out her guess.
"Martina, if you put it this way, then it's very interesting. The professor of the secret society actually wants to kill the student that he has painstakingly cultivated. It seems that there must be some unknown secret behind this …" After carefully pondering over the information revealed in Martina's words, a playful expression appeared on Tusam's face as he said.
"If your bad habit of being too curious acts up again, why don't we wait until we catch Connor Ferguson and ask him to tell you in detail?" Martina glanced at Tusam and said calmly.
"Hehe, no need, no need!"
Tusam waved his hand at Martina, then said with a smile, "It's enough to know this much about Connor Ferguson. I suddenly realized that what Martina said just now makes a lot of sense. It's not good to know too much about some things. It's indeed time for me to change my bad habit of being too curious!"
"I've told you everything I know, but you should be very clear about how important this information is!" Ignoring Tuzam's words, Martina looked at Tuzam with a solemn expression and said meaningfully, "Don't worry.
Seeing Martina's expression, Tusam was not a fool. He naturally understood what Martina meant. He immediately withdrew the smile on his face and promised Martina, "Martina, don't worry. I, Tusam, am not someone who doesn't know what's important. As long as I don't want to die, I won't tell anyone about this!"
"Very good! It's fine as long as you understand! " Tusam's promise made Martina nod silently in her heart. During this period of time, she had gained some understanding of Tusam. She knew that Tusam was a very shrewd, ruthless, and smart person who would not easily reveal secrets. Otherwise, she would not have told him about Connor.
