Connor and Marguerite held each other's hands tightly. Connor closed his eyes and checked Marguerite's body with his mind power. It took him nearly 20 minutes to finish the check. When he opened his eyes, there was a helpless expression on his face.
Judging from the current state of Margaret's body, he could clearly see that after switching to the intermediate version of blood witchcraft, her body had obviously recovered greatly. The drawbacks of the simplified version of blood witchcraft had also gradually improved, no longer affecting Margaret's ability to display her strength. If it wasn't for the fact that he had used the auxiliary chip to scan this intermediate version of blood witchcraft and knew that switching to it was only delaying the drawbacks for the future, Connor would definitely have thought that Margaret had already recovered!
Seeing that Connor had finished checking her body, Margaret leaned over with a smile and gently kissed Connor's lips. She then comforted him, "Don't worry, there's nothing wrong with my body. Don't worry!"
Seeing that Marguerite was in such a good mood, Connor nodded reluctantly.
After comforting Connor, Marguerite went straight to the point. "Connor, do you know Domenech Ferguson?" Marguerite asked seriously. "Connor, do you know Domenech Ferguson?"
"Domenech Ferguson? If I remember correctly, he's one of the founding members of our family. He's also a retired major general in the Empire's army. Although he's not a member of our family, our family valued his connections in the Empire's army. That's why he joined the founding members of our family. " Connor frowned when he heard Domenech's name. He tried to recall everything about Domenech's name in his memory. Then he introduced the name to Marguerite.
"Yes. Domenech used to be the vice commander of the 11th legion of the empire and had the strength of a Grand Knight. He participated in the Battle of Henke Forest with the Odin Empire and was awarded the 1st class Blue Shield Medal. He retired 12 years ago and returned to the Ferguson Family! "
"Connor, Domenech Ferguson has been using his connections to get orders from the Empire's army for your family's business ever since he became one of the founding members of your family. At the same time, he used his connections to recruit retired soldiers to do things that your family's knights can't do."
"Recently, the Religion of the Earth noticed that a team of knights recruited by Domenech sneaked into your family's manor in disguise," Marguerite said to Connor seriously.
Connor was confused about why Jack Ferguson would go to Ferguson's manor to recuperate after hearing the news from Marguerite.
After thinking for a few seconds, Connor asked Marguerite, "Do you know the exact number of knights recruited by Domenech?"
"We don't know the exact number yet, but we can be sure that there are at least two Grand Knights in this pair of knights. They're both retired from the imperial army. They're all very skilled and ruthless characters who kill without batting an eyelid. Currently, the Church of the Earth God is closely tracking their movements. Conall, do you know what they're trying to do?" Margaret said without hesitation.
"My biggest and most staunch supporter in the family is the head steward of our family, Martinez. He just defeated my third uncle in the council of elders of our family and defended my right to inherit the family. Currently, my third uncle is said to have taken poison and attempted suicide. He's currently recuperating in Ferguson's manor."
"Therefore, I think this Domenech must be working with my third uncle. He wants to lure Butler Martinez to Ferguson's Manor and kill him to take over the power!" Lucien said. Connor didn't hide anything from Marguerite, so he told her his guess.
After listening to Connor's explanation of the internal strife within the Ferguson Family with great interest, Margaret suggested to Connor, "Connor, now that you've seen through their scheme, shouldn't you teach them a lesson next?"
"Yes, I should! But now is not the time! "Connor smiled mysteriously as he explained.
Marguerite had been working with Connor for a long time, so she knew what Connor was trying to say. She warned, "Connor, don't kill too many people! The bishop of the Church of Earth in Flosinone is called Edinberg. He is a fanatic of the Church of Earth and hates killing. Although he has chosen to live peacefully with you as an official wizard, if you dare to kill on a large scale and let him know, Connor, even if you have a legitimate excuse, he might come after you! "
Hearing Marguerite's warning, Connor knew that Edin Berg was such a 'saint', so he couldn't help but frown. According to his original plan, the number of deaths in the Ferguson Family would be in the hundreds, but now it seemed like he had to restrain himself.
Looking at Connor who was in deep thought, Marguerite's eyes flickered. She then took a deep breath and whispered in Connor's ear, "Connor, Firo has shown himself!"
"Really?"
Connor immediately reacted and asked Marguerite in a serious tone.
"Three hours ago, the Religion of the Earth and the Church of the Storm received news that there were traces of a battle between official wizards in Spar Town, which is fifty miles away from Flosinone. Moreover, people have been missing in Spar Town for three days in a row. There are a total of six missing people! Currently, the Church of the Storm in Flosinone and the Religion of the Earth have had an emergency meeting. The official wizard of the Religion of the Earth, Raynor, will lead a small team of five to Spar Town to solve this matter! "Marguerite directly told Connor the news she received.
Hearing this news, Connor's expression didn't change much, but a trace of doubt appeared on his face.
Noticing the doubt in Connor's eyes, Marguerite thought that Connor was doubting the accuracy of her news, so she continued, "I'm sure that the news I received is accurate. I just saw Raynor and his group of five leave Flosinone on horseback and head towards Spar Town in the southwest direction!"
