After a moment of hesitation, Connor followed behind the burly man and walked towards the warehouse.
After walking around the warehouse a few times, Bisping led Connor into an extremely concealed secret passageway.
Once they entered the secret passageway, Connor smelled an extremely strong smell of potions. Carefully examining the smell of the potions, he could also detect a faint smell of blood. Apart from the smell, Connor also discovered something that shocked him. His spiritual force was actually unable to be released in this basement. The entire basement seemed to be restraining his spiritual force!
"Ahem … The walls here are mixed with the powder of the Abyssal Stone. Apprentice Magi are unable to use their spiritual force in this room!" Bisping, who was walking in front of Connor, seemed to have seen through his worries and explained.
Hearing the words "Abyssal Stone", a strange look flashed past Connor's eyes, but he immediately concealed it. He nodded lightly and continued walking forward with Bisping.
"What is this place? Where does this secret passageway lead to? "Connor's mind raced.
After studying "Reyes's Alchemy", Connor was well aware of how precious a mineral like the Abyssal Stone, which could restrain spiritual force, was. If what Bisping said was true, and the walls of this secret passageway were mixed with the powder of the Abyssal Stone, then the cost of constructing this secret passageway would be at least twenty thousand gold pounds!
The question then arose. Why would there be such an expensive secret passageway here, and what was it hiding?
Connor didn't have to ponder for too long before the answer appeared in front of him. After walking for about three minutes in the secret passageway, a large bronze door appeared in his line of sight.
"Tap, tap, tap!"
Bisping gently knocked on the door rhythmically, and the door silently opened.
Beckoning to Connor, Bisping said in a low voice, "Hurry up and enter!"
Although he didn't know what was behind the bronze door, Connor could only brace himself and walk through the door.
Walking through the door, Connor found himself in a room of about 50 square meters. The room was not big, and there were no other partitions. Everything in the room could be seen.
In this room, two strong red-haired young men were meditating on the ground with their legs crossed. There were several vials of medicament in front of them. The smell of medicament that Connor smelled at the entrance of the secret tunnel seemed to be from these vials of medicament. Besides, the bloody smell of the two red-haired young men also faintly drifted into Connor's nostrils.
As if they didn't notice Connor and Bisping entering the room, the two red-haired youths were still immersed in their own world and didn't have the slightest intention of ending their meditation.
"Where is the thing that the professor asked you to give me?" After arriving at this room, the gloomy expression on Bisping's face visibly disappeared.
Connor didn't speak, and silently passed the small box that Professor Reyes had given him to Bisping. In such an uncertain situation, Connor felt that the more he spoke, the more likely he would make mistakes. It was necessary to speak less and listen more.
After receiving the small box from Connor, Bisping didn't immediately open it. Instead, he grasped the small box in his palm.
In the next second, this simple looking box in Bisping's hand emitted an extremely strange, blood-red glow.
Looking at this strange red glow, Connor started to rejoice that he hadn't decided to open this small box. This blood-red glow clearly proved that this small box wasn't as simple as it looked.
'Are you really Professor Reyes's disciple?' After the red glow of the small box faded, Bisping didn't rush to open it. Instead, his eyes sparkled as he began to question Connor.
"That's right!" Connor nodded and admitted without hesitation.
"I didn't expect Sir Professor to also accept disciples. If it wasn't for the information that Sir gave me confirming this, I wouldn't have dared to believe this fact!" A smile appeared on Bisping's angular face.
Bisping seemed to have noticed Connor's curiosity about this room, so he introduced it to Connor, "This is the safe house of our secret society. It's usually used to store some things, and when needed, it's a gathering place for people!"
"Our secret society?" Hearing this, Connor's expression didn't change, but his heart was already in turmoil.
What's a secret society? It sounds like the name of an organization? What about our secret society? Could it be that Professor Reyes and this Bisping are both members of this secret society?
"You've already received what Sir gave you. The next step is for Sir Professor to ask me to take back what you gave him!" Connor tried his best to keep his tone calm as he spoke slowly. After smelling the scent of the potion in the secret passage, Connor ordered the A.I. Chip to analyze what kind of potion it was based on the smell of the potion with his current knowledge. The A.I. Chip finished its analysis and gave Connor an answer.
Based on this answer, Connor made a bold and logical conjecture. Based on this conjecture, Connor didn't want to know anything about this secret society. He just wanted to leave this place as soon as possible.
"Hehe, no wonder Sir Professor accepted a beginner apprentice like you as his disciple. You realized what we've done so quickly …" Bisping glanced at Connor and said with a faint smile.
"What are you talking about? I'm not interested in what you've done. I'm only here to complete the task that my mentor gave me! " Seeing that Bisping didn't hide anything, Connor's heart trembled. However, in order to prevent Bisping from tricking him, Connor still pretended to be puzzled and impatient.
"Clap, clap, clap, clap!"
Bisping gently clapped his hands and looked at Connor with a hint of appreciation in his eyes.
"To be honest, Connor, if I were as young as you, I might be deceived by your acting skills, but now …" Bisping shook his head and continued with a smile, "You guessed right. My two subordinates were shot by anti-magic bullets. We were the ones who broke into the No.7 secret warehouse of the Church of the Storm. Those bastards from the Church of the Storm are now searching for the three of us in the city. Oh right, I also killed that advanced apprentice Constantine. Young man, do you have anything else you want to know?"
Since Bisping admitted everything, Connor knew that it was meaningless for him to continue pretending. He forced a smile and said, "What do you need me to do now?"
"You just need to complete the task that Sir Professor gave you!" Bisping stopped smiling and said seriously.
