Looking at the back of Butler Martinez as he left, and hearing the footsteps of many men in black getting closer and closer, Aveiloa, who was already prepared, didn't panic at all. He took out a few smoke bombs that Connor had handed to him earlier and threw them around the garbage station.
As soon as the smoke bomb was thrown, the garbage station in the northeast corner of Ferguson's manor was completely shrouded in the grey smoke released by the smoke bomb in a matter of seconds.
"What's going on? Where did the smoke come from? "
"Where is the commander? How come we can't see you?"
"Ouch! That damned bastard stepped on my foot! "
"Where is the target? Find him! "
… ….
… ….
Although most of the men in black were retired soldiers of the empire and had received professional military training, the gray smoke released by the smoke bombs was too thick. The men in black couldn't see each other at all, and they were all in a mess.
Seeing that the men in black were in a mess, Aveloya saw that Butler Martinez had already entered the secret tunnel under his cover. He didn't want to waste any more time with the men in black and immediately ran away.
Connor's mission was to support Butler Martinez and cover his escape, not to kill the men in black. Other than that, Connor also gave him an additional request, which was to not use any wizard energy during this process.
From the looks of it, although Aveloya's body was temporarily strengthened by the potion and promoted to the level of a Great Knight, it was a pity that this was the effect of the potion and not Aveloya's own cultivation. Therefore, the strength of a Great Knight had a time limit.
And the most important thing was that there were dozens of black-clothed people pouring into the garbage station, and each of them was armed. Not to mention the current Averoya, under Connor's request, did not use his extraordinary power to deal with these black-clothed people as much as possible. Even without Connor's request, he was only an intermediate wizard apprentice. In the face of so many black-clothed people armed with live ammunition, the only thing he could do was to run as far as possible. After all, before he became an official wizard, guns still had a lot of lethality against wizard apprentices!
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio After Aveloya ran away, the gray fog in the garbage station began to disperse, and the men in black regained their order and resumed their search.
At the same time, in the study room of Jack Ferguson's mansion, Jack Ferguson, Eugenia, Domenech, and Bernardo were all sitting in their seats. None of them were interested in talking. They all looked nervous as if they were waiting for something.
A few minutes later, rapid footsteps sounded in the hallway of the mansion, which attracted their attention. A few seconds later, a strong man in black walked into the study room. Under everyone's gaze, he found Domenech, who was sitting by the window, and began to whisper in his ear.
Hearing his subordinate's report, Domenech's expression got even worse. It was clear that this man in black didn't bring him any good news.
Feeling Bernardo, Eugenia, and Jack Ferguson's gazes, Domenech was furious. However, it wasn't the time for him to vent his anger. He still had things to do.
After taking a deep breath, Domenech stood up from his chair and left the room without any explanation.
Jack Ferguson, Eugenia, and Bernardo looked at each other. They didn't expect Domenech to do this. When the man in black was about to leave with Domenech, Bernardo couldn't take it anymore. He grabbed the man in black's collar and roared, "You bastard! Tell me what's going on now! "
There was a reason why Bernardo lost his cool. He was a businessman, and although he was a businessman, he was more concerned about risk. Even though he was Domenech's political ally in the Ferguson Family, it didn't mean that he didn't agree with Domenech's plan.
On the contrary, Bernardo was skeptical of Domenech's plan. He thought that Domenech's plan was too risky, so he didn't want to get involved.
However, Domenech had already made up his mind. After Jack Ferguson entered the Ferguson Manor, Domenech arranged for Jack Ferguson's men to move into the Ferguson Manor. This put Bernardo, who had been operating in the Ferguson Manor for many years, in an awkward position. He couldn't stay out of this as he wanted to.
Also, Bernardo and Domenech had been working together in the Ferguson Family for more than 10 years. If Domenech was defeated by Butler Martinez, Bernardo wouldn't have a good time either. Therefore, after realizing this, Bernardo reluctantly agreed to participate in Domenech's plan under the temptation of all the benefits that Domenech promised.
Even though Bernardo helped Domenech move the main force of the Ferguson Family knights away from the Ferguson Manor so that Domenech could lead the men in black to start an armed rebellion, Bernardo still didn't want to join Domenech. Therefore, when he realized that Domenech's plan wasn't going well, Bernardo's negative emotions flooded his mind.
