"We've always suspected that Conor Ferguson had inherited Reyes' alchemy and became an alchemist. The appearance of this small green stone has undoubtedly confirmed this point. Judging from the quality of this small green stone, Conor Ferguson's alchemy skills are definitely not inferior to our Church's Mister Pjanic!" Cristante said with a sigh.
"What? Connor Ferguson? His skills are on the same level as Mr. Pjanic's? "Milik asked in surprise.
Although the Church of the Storm was a powerful force in the Kaman Empire with dozens of official wizards, there were only two alchemists who had reached the level of an official wizard. Mr. Pjanic, whom Cristante mentioned, was the one with the highest level of alchemist. He had contributed greatly to the alchemy work of the Church of the Storm for nearly 30 years. He was highly respected in the Church of the Storm. Even the red-cloaked bishops, including Hummel, were very polite to him.
"Yes! It's even possible that Connor Ferguson's level is higher than Mr. Pjanic's! " Cristante nodded bitterly. Then, he saw that Milik was a little hesitant and explained, "Although I don't know much about alchemy, I can see some clues from Mr. Pjanic's alchemy items. But this little thing that Connor Ferguson made, I can't see through it at all. I can only feel that it's very mysterious!"
Cristante's words shocked Milik once again. He knew that this old man in front of him was the Director of Intelligence for the Church of the Storm's Organization Blake. He was the head of intelligence for the Church of the Storm. He was definitely experienced and knowledgeable. He had seen many powerful magic items, some of which were top level magic items in the entire Wizard World. Now that he had such a high evaluation of this little green rock, it was obvious that this little green rock was extraordinary!
"Mr. Director, if you can't see through the use of this thing, why did you keep it?"
Milik asked doubtfully as he pointed at the little green rock in the wooden box. Although he was hiding in the private room next door, he didn't try to use his power of the will to prevent Connor from discovering him. Therefore, he didn't hear anything about the conversation between Cristante and Connor Ferguson in the private room.
"Connor Ferguson, tell me, can this thing sense Reyes's presence?" Cristante explained with a cold smile, seemingly disdainful of Connor's words.
"Mr. Director, if you don't believe it, why did you keep it?" Looking at the cold smile on Cristante's face, Milik was even more confused. he didn't know what Connor Ferguson and Cristante were up to. he had no idea what was going on.
Cristante said faintly, "Who said I don't believe it? I really believe that this thing can help me sense Reyes's presence. After all, Reyes is the biggest threat to Connor Ferguson. If I were to be killed by Reyes, it wouldn't benefit him at all! "
Cristante paused for a moment, then said to Milik, who seemed to have understood something, "However, I believe that this thing isn't as simple as Connor saying that it can only sense Reyes's presence. Milik, do you understand what I mean?"
"I understand, Mr. Director. Are you suspecting that there are other ways to use this thing? In that case, I'll send it back to the Church's headquarters and hand it over to Mr. Pianich for inspection! " Milick preached as if he had understood something. As he spoke, he was about to put away the wooden box containing the small green stone.
Seeing this, Cristante waved his hand to stop Milik. He shook his head and explained, "Since Connor has the guts to give this thing to me, he must have made all kinds of preparations. I'm afraid that this thing will self-destruct before you send it out of Flosinone. Besides, even if you give it to Mr. Pianich, he might not be able to find anything valuable …"
"In that case, Mr. Director, how do you plan to deal with this thing?" Milik thought for a while. He seemed to have understood something from Cristante's words, so he continued to ask Cristante.
"You don't have to worry about that. I have my ways!" Cristante smiled and said confidently while looking at the small green stone in the wooden box in front of him.
After saying that, Cristante seemed to have thought of something. His eyes lit up and he looked at Milik attentively. Seeing Cristante looking at him like that, Milik also realized something. He asked Cristante tentatively, "Mr. Director, do you have a task for me?"
Cristante neither confirmed nor denied Milik's question. He still looked at Milik with a scrutinizing gaze. Seeing Cristante's attitude, Milik, who was eager to contribute to the Church of the Storm, suddenly became excited. He solemnly said to Cristante, "Don't worry, Mr. Director. No matter what task you give me, I will definitely complete it!"
Hearing Milik's attitude, Cristante's expression changed slightly. He said to Milik in a deep voice, "Connor Ferguson already knows my identity and guessed that I have a powerful magic item on me …"
Crestante didn't finish his words. Milik's expression suddenly changed. A few seconds later, he suggested to Cristante in a low voice, "Should we report this situation to the headquarters?"
"There's no need for that! What's the point of reporting it to the headquarters? " Cristante didn't seem to be interested in Milik's suggestion at all. He waved his hand and directly rejected it. Seeing that Milik still didn't understand what he wanted to say, he couldn't help but point at Milik and say, "Milik, how do you think Connor Ferguson knew my identity?"
Although Milik's mind wasn't as sharp as Cristante's, he was still a genius wizard of the Church of the Storm. He wasn't stupid. After thinking for a while, he had an answer in his heart. Without hesitation, he said to Cristante, "Did Firo tell him?"
