By the time Connor regained his senses, Živkovychi had already entered the wooden stronghold and entered a small wooden hut in the middle of the stronghold. At this moment, his wrinkled brows and gloomy expression were all seen by Connor!
Seeing Živkovychi's greeting and the appearance of the black shadow, a thought immediately surfaced in Connor's mind.
"Were the two of them meeting?"
Although he did not see clearly who the black shadow was, Connor was certain that the distance between the black shadow and Živkovychi was no more than two hundred meters. Živkovychi was a rank 1 Magus, and the black shadow had appeared so close to him without any obstructions. Hence, Živkovychi definitely knew of the existence of the black shadow. If that was the case, and combined with Živkovychi's expression, other than the possibility of "meeting", Connor could not think of any other possibility!
If they were meeting, then at this time, and in such a sensitive place like the wooden stronghold, there was no doubt that the matter that the black shadow and Živkovychi were discussing was most likely related to that item!
And from the bitter expression on Živkovychi's face when he returned, there was no doubt that the outcome of their discussion was not very satisfactory.
After realising this, Connor's eyes flickered. He was originally curious as to how such a small tribe like the Golovin Tribe could be related to that item. However, now it seemed that the Golovin Tribe was just a small character that was placed on the stage. It was very likely that there was a huge force behind the Golovin Tribe supporting Živkovychi, which was why Živkovychi dared to set up such a huge trap and scheme for the flesh and blood of more than fifty Magi.
This new discovery immediately disrupted Connor's original plan. Connor had originally thought that the Golovin Tribe had gotten lucky and were related to that item, so he was prepared to snatch one from Živkovychi and leave. However, now it seemed that if Connor really wanted to get some benefits, he might really have to kill Živkovychi to silence him. After all, if he left him alive, he would be a scourge, and it was very likely that the force behind him would come looking for him!
After realising this, Connor couldn't help but ponder in his heart. Snatching one from Živkovychi and leaving were two completely different levels of difficulty. Connor came back secretly because of greed and confidence. With his strength, there wouldn't be any danger if he snatched one from Živkovychi in the wooden stockade and left.
However, if he wanted to kill Živkovychi now, the risk index could be said to be straight up. Connor was confident that he could kill Živkovychi, but what Connor was really hesitant about was the price he would have to pay to kill Živkovychi!
After all, in a few days, when Connor returned to Flosinone, he still had to deal with that old fox, Adolf. At that time, if he was seriously injured from killing Živkovychi and was discovered by Adolf, it was hard to guarantee that Adolf wouldn't have other thoughts. In that case, Connor would lose a lot for a small gain …
After thinking for a while, Connor made a decision in his heart. He first used his mental strength to secretly observe the surroundings of the wooden stockade. After confirming that the black figure had gone far and wouldn't return to the wooden stockade, Connor quietly crept towards Živkovychi's wooden house.
How would Connor know what kind of price he would have to pay to kill Živkovychi if he didn't try?
Just because he found out that Živkovychi had someone backing him up, Connor was unwilling to give up the opportunity to greatly increase the success rate of Varga breaking through to become a level-1 wizard!
Because he was worried that Živkovychi would notice if he got too close, Connor didn't get too close. He hid behind a large wooden pillar outside the wooden house.
At this time, under Connor's secret observation, Živkovychi's expression was solemn as he paced back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back. Obviously, he had encountered a very difficult problem at this time.
After observing Živkovychi for a few seconds, Connor shifted his attention to the furnishings of the room. Although Živkovychi's room looked very plain and simple, with only a bed, a chair, a table, and a praying mat used for meditation, there was nothing else. However, as an alchemist, Connor, who was familiar with alchemy mechanisms and all kinds of restrictions, could see that there was something fishy about it.
There was a restriction placed on the floor of the room. If there was a sudden attack on the house, it would send out a warning and automatically defend itself. The chair and table weren't simple either. When attacked, they would become natural bunkers and provide temporary protection for Živkovychi!
Under normal circumstances, these things in the room would only be a small inconvenience for Connor. He would only need a few minutes to solve all of them. But now, they had become obstacles that prevented Connor from launching a sneak attack on Živkovychi!
In Connor's eyes, if he wanted to kill Živkovychi without paying a heavy price, then a sneak attack was undoubtedly the best choice. And now, if Connor wanted to launch a sudden attack on Živkovychi, whether it was the underground restriction or the bunkers in the room, naturally, they wouldn't be able to stop Connor's attack. However, these things could delay Živkovychi for one or two seconds.
One or two seconds, although it seemed very short, their existence could greatly affect the outcome of Connor's sneak attack on Živkovychi. Originally, Connor's sneak attack could severely injure Živkovychi and secure victory.
But once Živkovychi had the protection of the wooden house to buy him one or two seconds to react, then Živkovychi could quickly set up a defense. In the end, he would only suffer some superficial wounds from Connor's sneak attack, which wouldn't affect his strength too much.
The most awkward thing was that Zhivkovic was in the room. Even though Connor could easily get rid of this' tiger 'in front of him, there was nothing he could do except to stare at Zhivkovic helplessly.
After thinking quickly for a while, Connor's eyes lit up as he thought of a good idea. Since Živkovychi's wooden house was protected, then he could completely avoid its existence!
He could use a trick to lure Živkovychi out of the wooden house, then launch a sneak attack on Živkovychi. Wouldn't this solve his current predicament perfectly?
