And it wasn't just Martina. Previously, when Marguerite revealed to him that Stefano Ferguson and Politano were personally rescued by Old Victor, it also indirectly confirmed Martina's guess that Reyes was his uncle.
Thinking of this, Connor secretly made up his mind that after this matter, he must find Marguerite and obtain the second half of the video of Politano's trial. With his current relationship with Marguerite, Connor believed that Marguerite wouldn't hide anything from him.
His eyes flickered a few times, Connor expressionlessly looked at Martina in front of him and continued to ask, "The second question, where is Reyes now? Will he have the time to deal with me?"
"A few days ago, in order to appease me, the Duke's faction sent me a message. In the letter, other than telling me that their reinforcements will soon arrive in Loen, they also told me that Reyes is currently in Bernabeu. Not only him, but Great Alchemist Southgate, who had just betrayed the Skull Society and joined the Secret Society, as well as Bisping, whom you've met once before, and many other official Wizards, all accompanied him to Bernabeu."
"Although the Duke's faction didn't tell me in the secret letter what Reyes and the others are doing in Bernabeu, they assured me that within a year at the very least, Reyes and the other official Wizards under him will definitely not return to Loen! Connor, you can do anything you want in one year! "Martina hinted at Connor meaningfully," You can do anything you want in one year! "
"Martina, since your reinforcements are about to arrive in Loen, why do you still want to sail out to sea and leave Loen? You're leaving here because you want to go to the New World, right? " Hearing the hidden meaning in Martina's words, Connor didn't fall for it. Instead, he calmly asked Martina a question in return, checkmating Martina!
Upon hearing Connor's words, Martina's expression instantly turned ugly. Connor was bound by the oath of the Eye of Arbitration, so Connor couldn't do anything to her. She glared at Connor hatefully, then said in a low voice, "Since you've already thought it through, why are you deliberately humiliating me? Now that I have no value to the Duke's faction, for the sake of my own future, I'm going to the New World to start anew. Are you satisfied? "
Upon hearing this, Connor shook his head, then asked Martina, "Since you've already chosen to leave the Duke's faction, then ask me a question. How many days will it take for your reinforcements to arrive in Loen? How strong are they?"
"The Sabitz brothers, a pair of twin advanced Sorcerer-Apprentices. They're very strong and often help the Duke's faction deal with some dirty matters. Because they're twins, they can cast a set of combined spells. In two days, they'll enter Loen from the Bramble Bird Pier. As for more details, I don't know!" Perhaps Martina was really planning to leave the secret society. After glancing at Connor, she did not reject Connor's request for a complimentary question. She said without hesitation, "You're right.
Martina's honesty made Connor nod in satisfaction. He then raised a finger at Martina and said, "One last thing. How did you know that my meditation technique is the Abyssal Secret Technique? What did Reyes do to the Abyssal Secret Technique?"
'Connor, you know that your mentor, Reyes, is also a Spirit Sorcerer, right? Although the Duke and Professor still maintain the unity of the Secret Society in name, in reality, the Duke and Professor's factions have already split. Therefore, the head of the intelligence department in the Duke's faction, the Red Baron, has already studied Professor as a potential enemy. As for me, as a spy they planted in Professor's faction, the Red Baron unavoidably revealed some information to me so that I can understand and judge what is valuable to them! '
"Because of this, I had the opportunity to obtain their speculations about Professor's background from the Red Baron. The Red Baron also guessed that Professor switched to the Abyssal Secret Technique after becoming an official Sorcerer. Therefore, I guessed that he made you switch to the Abyssal Secret Technique, which is a high-level meditation technique!" Martina explained.
However, just as Martina was about to continue speaking, Connor raised his eyebrows as if he had discovered something. Without hesitation, he cast his innate spell in Martina's direction. Seeing Connor attacking her, Martina, who was about to continue speaking, was dumbfounded. She didn't understand why Connor would bear the price of breaking the oath of the Eye of Arbitration and suddenly attack her …
However, just as Martina subconsciously wanted to defend herself, Connor's Abyssal Chain swept past Martina's body and hit the seemingly empty air beside her. The air that was hit by the Abyssal Chain instantly rippled with energy waves like water. Then, a silver needle that was about the length of a finger and flashed with faint blue light appeared in mid-air.
After being hit by Connor's innate spell, Abyssal Chain, this silver needle that was hidden in the air suddenly trembled. It stopped attacking Martina and flew back to the fishing village of Aravis at an extremely fast speed.
Seeing the appearance of the silver needle not far away from her, Martina naturally understood everything. She knew that Connor had saved her life. After giving Connor a grateful look, she decisively ran behind Connor. At this moment, Connor didn't have time to care about Martina who was hiding behind him. His eyes were fixed on the direction of the fishing village of Aravis. He sensed the appearance of a person that he was very familiar with and also very wary of …
Three seconds later, under Connor's gaze, a small black dot gradually appeared in front of Connor from the direction of the fishing village of Aravis. As time passed, the small black dot gradually turned into Old Victor's hunched body that was holding a cane.
Looking at Old Victor who suddenly appeared in his field of vision, Connor's heart gradually sank. It had only been about three hours since Martina left Semedo's residence. Old Victor actually found this place in such a short time, which really surprised him. This old man was indeed not simple!
Martina, who was hiding behind Connor, also looked at Old Victor who appeared. Despair immediately appeared in her eyes. Now that Old Victor had caught up with her, even if Connor let her go and Steve who was steering the boat for her didn't die, she would definitely die!
