Besides, after being in the Secret Society for so many years, Connor was well aware of his mentor Reyes's methods. Although it seemed like Reyes was giving him a chance to choose, if he really chose to refuse and followed Reyes's suggestion, it would mean that he, Connor Ferguson, was worthless to Reyes. To a worthless person, Reyes would never let him go just because he was his student. Connor believed that once he fell into Reyes's hands, even death would be an extravagant hope.
"Sigh …"
With a slight sigh, Connor calmed himself down and sat cross-legged on the ground to meditate. To Connor, the information that Reyes left in the crystal ball wasn't all bad news. At least, since Reyes wanted to wait for him to become an official wizard, he wouldn't be too ruthless in his pursuit of him now.
In this way, he would be safe for a while. He could stay in this safe house to recover from his injuries.
… …
… …
While Connor was hiding in the safe house to recover from his injuries, Marguerite, who was wearing a linen robe to cover her figure, appeared at the corner of the street. Under the cover of the dark night, Marguerite quietly looked at the Oyaro Noodle Factory, No.67, on the opposite side of the street.
After looking for about a minute, Marguerite took out an ordinary-looking amulet from the church and kissed it gently. "Irene, I'm going to avenge you," she said in a low voice.
After saying that, Margaret put the amulet back into her clothes. Then, she took out a silver mask from her space ring and put it on her face with a solemn expression. She then quietly approached Oya 'er Noodle Factory.
At this moment, Old Viktor was meditating and recuperating in the secret chamber of the hidden two-story building in the Oyarr Noodle Factory. Although he still didn't look good and his aura was much weaker, he was obviously much better than when he had just escaped from Connor and Valga.
As Old Victor breathed in and out, energy particles that were visible to the naked eye appeared around him. On the walls of this airtight secret chamber, there were some energy runes that were faintly discernible. These runes firmly locked the energy waves caused by Old Victor's cultivation and the golden energy particles within the secret chamber, preventing the outside world from sensing any abnormalities.
Ever since he escaped from Castilla's magic circle three hours ago, Old Victor, who was severely injured, returned to the secret room to recuperate. This time, his injuries weren't particularly serious, but they weren't light either. After all, it wasn't an exaggeration to say that Old Victor almost died in the hands of Connor and Varga.
What truly vexed Old Victor was that although he was powerful, he was still old. His body was no longer young, and even with the support of potions, his body's recovery ability had decreased by a lot.
If he wanted to fully recover from his injuries, he would need at least three years and at least one year. Moreover, this was only the recovery of his injuries. If he wanted to return to his previous state, he would need even more time! To Old Victor, who was nearing the end of his life and wanted to complete this mission, he had to go into seclusion to break through to an official Magus. This was no different from a nightmare!
When Old Victor realized that his body was in such a state, his heart turned cold. He was very clear that even if he recovered from his injuries and returned to his previous state, this injury would still leave behind a root of illness. His originally low success rate of breaking through to an official Magus was now even lower!
"Who is it?"
Old Victor, who was meditating, suddenly opened his eyes as if he sensed something. He stared at the secret door of the secret room he was in and asked sternly, "What are you doing?
Seeing that Old Victor had discovered him, the mysterious person who had snuck up to the secret door stopped concealing himself. Suddenly, a short burst of violent energy waves erupted from the secret door. Under the watchful eyes of Old Victor, the secret door of the secret room suddenly exploded. The terrifying energy waves instantly blew the secret door of the secret room into smithereens!
This sudden explosion made Old Victor's expression change. As the owner of this secret room, he clearly knew that although the secret door of this secret room looked ordinary, it wasn't ordinary at all. This secret door was made of a special alloy as its framework. After that, a type of metal cement was poured into it. After that, it was refined using a very complicated alchemy method. Although it looked like a secret door, its actual defensive ability was enough to withstand the explosion of a refined bomb. It was comparable to a first-tier defensive magic item. Now that it was destroyed so easily, it was obvious that the intruder came prepared!
After the secret door exploded, a huge hole was formed in the wall of the secret room. However, what surprised Old Victor was that the mysterious person who was outside the secret room didn't come in through the hole immediately.
Looking at this strange scene, Old Victor hesitated for a moment. Then, he took out his cane from his interspatial ring and swung it. Instantly, three golden light slashes were launched towards the huge hole that was created by the explosion.
The three golden light slashes were extremely powerful and swift. In just a blink of an eye, they had entered the big hole. Then, under Old Victor's gaze, the three golden light slashes seemed to have been devoured, and there was no movement in the big hole. Looking at this scene, Old Victor's expression turned solemn, and his heart sank.
At this moment, a dark purple blade wheel flew out from the big hole and went straight for Old Victor's throat. Seeing that the mysterious person outside the door had finally made his move, Old Victor, who had been on high alert, had a cold glint in his eyes. He placed his walking stick in front of him, and the walking stick immediately emitted a golden light, forming a golden light shield that protected Old Victor within it!
