Hearing Marguerite's question, Connor answered without hesitation, "It's normal that you didn't see it. This is a method that my mentor invented 30 years ago. First, the Green Shadow Grass is steamed at a high temperature for six hours. Then, the essence is extracted and purified using the McSimon extraction method. After that, the extracted and purified essence is frozen at a low temperature. This process is repeated three times …"
Connor, who realized his slip of the tongue, stopped talking abruptly. On the other hand, Marguerite's eyes lit up when she heard Connor say the word "mentor". She looked straight at Connor. Obviously, Marguerite was very interested in this "mentor" that Connor mentioned.
Both of them fell into a short silence. A few minutes later, Marguerite was still looking at him with her big eyes. Connor smiled bitterly. He looked at Marguerite and said in a deep voice, "I'm sorry, Marguerite. I can't tell you about this yet, at least not now!"
Connor's refusal immediately made Marguerite's beautiful face disappointed. However, since Connor didn't want to say it, she didn't force him. She could only lower her head and force a smile. She then shook her head at Connor and said, "It's fine!"
Although Marguerite expressed her understanding, both of them fell into silence. For a moment, the atmosphere between them became very awkward. Seeing this, Marguerite thought for a while and took the initiative to break the silence. She asked Connor, "Connor, what do you plan to do next with Martina?"
Hearing Marguerite mention this, Connor, who already knew what was going on, said without hesitation, "Since I know that the mastermind is Martina, I plan to find out where Martina's base is first!"
"Then, you plan to get rid of her first?" After hearing Connor's words, Marguerite nodded and said.
"No!" Connor rejected Marguerite's idea. He then smiled mysteriously and said to Marguerite, "After finding out where Martina's base is, I plan to bide my time and wait to see what happens!"
"Connor, are you going to let Martina go?" Marguerite seemed to be very puzzled by Connor's words. She asked in surprise.
"Of course not. Martina dug such a big hole for me. How can I let her go so easily? But Marguerite, do you still remember what Martina said just now? "Connor's eyes sparkled as he reminded Marguerite.
Connor's reminder seemed to make Marguerite realize something.... She thought for a while and then said, "Connor, you mean that after Martina said I was sent by Old Victor, after she found out that I used blood witchcraft?"
"That's right! Marguerite, it's true that you used blood witchcraft. But why did Martina think that you were sent by Old Victor to kill her when she found out about blood witchcraft? "Connor continued with a hint of excitement in his eyes.
"The relationship between Martina and Old Victor is very tense! Connor, you said before that Old Victor didn't realize that Martina was a spy in the Duke's faction. He even sent Tusam to investigate Martina! " Marguerite also instantly understood Connor's meaning after hearing Connor's words. She also said with some surprise, "If that's the case, then it should be like this.
"If I'm not mistaken, that should be the case. Otherwise, Martina wouldn't have been so frightened!" Connor nodded affirmatively. Then, he couldn't help but continue, "Marguerite, guess what Martina's next step would be after she mistakenly thought that you were sent by Old Victor to kill her?"
Seeing that Connor wanted to test her, Marguerite rolled her eyes at him. However, she still couldn't help but think and said, "It's obvious. If I were Martina, I would never go back to Old Victor's place when I found out that he wanted to kill me. I would find a safe place to hide!"
Connor nodded with a smile after hearing Marguerite's analysis. He then added, "And Old Victor, who found out that Martina was missing, naturally wouldn't let her go missing so easily. He will definitely look for Martina. This is our chance!"
"Marguerite has my spiritual coordinates. We just need to find Martina one step ahead and wait for Old Victor to find Martina. Then, we can sit back and wait for Old Victor and Martina to fight each other. In the end, we can reap the benefits!" Connor confidently introduced the plan that he had just thought of to Marguerite.
… …
… …
Just as Connor was planning to reap the benefits, Martina, who had a cold temperament and a pale face, was sitting on the floor meditating in a secret room in a two-story villa called Semedo Residence in Lewandowski Avenue in the Zelinsky Community in the Loen West District. There were three to four empty potion bottles in front of Martina. It seemed that Martina's current physical condition wasn't very good and she had suffered some injuries.
At this moment, Martina, who was in the middle of her cultivation, was surrounded by a bone-piercing cold mist. This cold mist constantly changed and churned along with Martina's breathing. Soon, Martina's pale face gradually had a tinge of redness, and her breathing also became more even. After another half an hour, Martina seemed to have sensed something and ended her cultivation. The icy mist around her also slowly dissipated.
Martina pointed at the cement wall of the secret room. A bronze mirror suddenly popped out from the wall. A circle of water ripples automatically appeared on the bronze mirror. After the ripples rippled for a few seconds, a clear image appeared. A middle-aged white uncle with a gentle face wearing a gray long-sleeved robe and a top hat was standing outside the door of Semedo Residence. He was knocking on the door rhythmically.
Martina seemed to be very familiar with this person and trusted him. She let out a sigh of relief and the alertness in her eyes disappeared. She pointed at the bronze mirror and the bronze mirror silently retracted back into the cement wall without any flaws. At the same time, the door of Semedo Residence was opened and the gentle-looking uncle from outside the door entered the residence.
Half a minute later, the middle-aged uncle walked into the secret room where Martina was without any obstructions. Although Martina's face looked a lot better, the middle-aged uncle still noticed something from the empty potion bottles on the floor. His gentle face suddenly changed and he asked Martina in shock, "Martina, what happened? Why are you injured? "
