Connor had already thought of a way to deal with this. Once they reached a safe place, he would let Varga choose whether or not to join the Secret Society. After all, the Secret Society was a dangerous place, but with the abundant resources of the organization, it was an indispensable opportunity for any Magus.
If Varga agreed, Connor would follow the original plan and bring Varga into the Secret Society. If Varga gave a negative answer, Connor would also give her a ticket to the New World. As for Reyes, with the sudden incident with Balero, Connor felt that he had an excuse. After all, Old Victor was gone, and the Spirit Worship Sect had only one advanced Apprentice and two intermediate Apprentices. He was no match for them.
Just as Connor, who was carrying Valga on his back and running away from the Martip Community and felt a little more at ease, he suddenly felt a wave of searing energy surge towards him!
With a sweep of his power of the will, he found that the wave of hot energy was actually a dark green fireball sweeping towards him. This dark green fireball was extremely fast. Connor, who was carrying Varga on his back, wanted to dodge, but there was no time to do so.
Without any hesitation, Connor quickly took out his violet ring. In an instant, a light purple shield appeared in front of Connor, blocking the incoming dark green fireball.
* Bang! *
After a loud bang, the dark green fireball dissipated, but the purple light shield in front of Connor was extremely dim, as if it was transparent.
Seeing this, Connor's heart suddenly turned pale. He had seen the defensive power of the violet ring with his own eyes, and he had even tested it himself. Under the attack of this dark green fireball, it was so terrifying that it almost broke through his light shield.
"The attacker is most likely an advanced Apprentice. I can't fight him head-on. The best strategy is to run!"
This thought arose in Connor's mind. Without much time to think, Connor immediately made the decision to continue running. But before he could run a few steps, he saw a bald, black-clothed man with a dusty face and bloodstains all over his body appear in front of him.
"Hehe … You two little rats didn't run far!" The bald man in black who was covered in blood glared at Connor and Valga who was on his back.
Connor sighed in his heart as he sensed the mana waves of an advanced apprentice coming from the bald man. He knew that there was no way he could settle this peacefully. He could only put up a fight.
Carefully placing the unconscious Valga aside, Connor's entire aura changed in an instant. He was very clear that under normal circumstances, even if he used all his means, he wouldn't have any chance in front of an advanced apprentice. It was already good enough that he could keep his little life.
But now that Varga was here, Connor could only choose to fight head-on. Luckily, the advanced apprentice in front of him seemed to be a survivor of Mary's grandmother. Even if he survived, he should be heavily injured. It was not impossible for him to fight head-on.
"Interesting, interesting. Are all the beginner apprentices nowadays so arrogant? A beginner apprentice actually dares to fight me, an advanced apprentice? Do you think you have a chance just because I'm injured? " Seeing that Connor was prepared to fight until the end, the bald man in black was so angry that he laughed.
Ignoring the bald man's mockery, Connor took a deep breath. Black flames emerged from his palms and condensed into two huge black chains with mysterious runes engraved on them. With a low roar from Connor, the two Shadow Chains shot towards the bald man in black from both sides.
Facing an advanced apprentice, even if this person was injured, Connor did not dare to be careless. He immediately used his strongest innate skill — Shadow Chains. He was afraid that if he was careless, he would not have the chance to use this skill again.
"Oh! No wonder you have such guts. So you're training in an advanced meditation technique! " The bald man in black sneered. Although his tone was still indifferent, there was a hint of seriousness on his face. His hand pulled in the air, and three green fireballs similar to the ones that attacked Connor appeared.
The bald man in black snorted and waved his arm. Two of the three dark green fireballs flew towards Connor's Shadow Chains, while the other one flew towards Connor himself.
Without Valga on his back this time, Connor gritted his teeth and didn't use the violet ring to take the attack head-on. Instead, his figure flashed in an attempt to evade. Although the violet ring could block the dark green fireball, it would also consume a lot of energy. It had already taken the attack head-on just now. If it were to take the attack head-on now, it would cause permanent damage to the violet ring!
"Bang! Bang! "
The dark green fireball and the Shadow Chains collided, and a loud explosion sounded. Both of them canceled each other out. Connor, who was dodging the dark green fireball, suddenly swayed. His face was as pale as paper, and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. The Shadow Chains was Connor's innate spell. It was connected to Connor's mind. If the chains were destroyed, Connor would also suffer a backlash.
At this moment, the dark green fireball was already in front of him. Connor's mouth revealed a self-deprecating smile. He knew that he could not escape from the attack range of the dark green fireball as planned, so he had no choice but to use all the energy in his body and pour it into the violet ring.
"Boom!"
The dark green fireball once again smashed into the purple light shield. This time, the purple light shield wasn't as lucky as before. It immediately shattered, and Connor, who was hiding behind the purple light shield, was blasted seven to eight meters away by the aftermath of the explosion.
"Hahaha, little mouse, tell me your advanced meditation technique, and I can give you a quick death. Otherwise …" Looking at Connor, who was lying on the ground and struggling to get up, the bald man in black walked over with a sneer.
Connor stood up shakily from the ground and looked at the bald man in black who was gradually approaching him. His eyes were full of madness. God damn it! Even if I die, I will bite off a piece of your flesh. However, just a second before Connor was about to go into the abyss to self-destruct, an old voice faintly sounded.
"Since when did the Spirit Worship Sect have the guts to scheme against our Secret Society?"
Hearing the old voice, Connor's face lit up with joy. At this critical moment, Old Victor had arrived!
"Who? You are from the Secret Society? "
The bald man in black seemed to be very sensitive to the two words "Secret Society". His expression suddenly became extremely complicated.
At this moment, a black spear appeared out of thin air and silently pierced towards the bald man in black's chest.
