Wizard Earl

It was a white-robed wizard who didn't belong to Dezelby's arbitrator squad. He was about 1.85 meters tall, and although his build appeared somewhat bulky, a long scar adorned his angular face. From his appearance alone, one could tell he was a ruthless character not to be trifled with. At this moment, his white robes, a symbol of the Storm Church's priesthood, were stained with traces of black blood…

Although Connor did not know who this person was, and had never met him before, he could tell from the Storm Church's attire and the fact that he was walking with Dezelby's group that this person was most likely reinforcements sent by the Storm Church.

Because of the distance, even though Connor was a psychic wizard, he couldn't judge the person's cultivation level through his mental power. However, at this critical moment, since black bloodstains appeared on his robes, it was highly likely that the bloodstains belonged to those terrifying Blackblood Fox Bears. And since he was able to injure the Blackblood Fox Bears, his cultivation level should, without a doubt, have reached the ranks of a formal wizard.

Realizing this, Connor couldn't help but become interested in the man. He silently focused his mental energy on him, wanting to observe his actions as closely as possible. After observing him carefully for a while, a faint hint of doubt appeared in Connor's eyes. Although he was certain that he had never met this scarred man from the Church of Storms before today, for some reason, he had a strange feeling about this guy, as if he had encountered him somewhere before...

Just as Connor was pondering this in his heart, the scarred wizard under his mental observation seemed to sense something, stopped in his tracks, and turned to look in Connor's direction.

The scarred wizard's actions immediately alerted Connor, who promptly stopped observing and withdrew his mental energy.

"Milik, what's wrong?"

Seeing that Milik, who was in charge of bringing up the rear, had stopped and was looking towards the small waterfall, Dezelby, who was walking at the front of the group, asked him with some doubt:

Just five minutes after he began to break out in different directions according to Connor's plan, Dezelby, who was not good at escaping, encountered an adult Blackblood Fox Bear with the strength of a level four magical beast. Because he had a clear understanding of his own strength, he knew that he was no match for the Blackblood Fox Bear and that it would be difficult for him to get rid of this powerful adult Blackblood Fox Bear on his own.

So from the very first second after encountering this adult black-blooded fox bear, in order to survive, Dezerby chose to release the Storm Church wizard and use his unique method of seeking help from others.

Meanwhile, several Storm Church Arbitrators who received Dezerby's distress signal nearby were indeed loyal and did not abandon their commander. They immediately risked their lives to come to his aid. However, the adult Blackblood Fox Bear was both powerful and cunning. Even with Dezerby and several wizard apprentices working together to deal with it, they were completely outmaneuvered and could only struggle to hold on.

At that critical moment, Milik suddenly appeared out of nowhere and, while Dezelby and his group were locked in battle with the Blackblood Fox Bear, used his ice blade to blind one of the Blackblood Fox Bear's eyes and severely injure it, allowing Dezelby and the others to escape.

Upon hearing Dezelby's question, Milik didn't answer directly. Instead, he pointed towards the small waterfall and asked, "Is that where you're supposed to meet?"

Following Milik's direction, De Zelby, though unsure of Milik's intentions, nodded and said, "That's right, that's the place Connor Ferguson suggested we meet!"

By the end, Dezerby's tone had become extremely sinister, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes. As a veteran official wizard of the Storm Church, Dezerby was certainly not a fool.

When Connor first proposed the idea of ​​splitting up and escaping, DeZelby realized that there was something wrong with Connor's plan. However, because the Blackblood Fox Bear was right behind him and the situation was too critical, he didn't have time to think it through and could only follow Connor's suggestion, which seemed to be the best way to deal with the crisis at that time.

However, as time went on, De Zelby was able to think things through more carefully. He realized that Connor's proposed method of splitting up and breaking through seemed good, but in reality, it meant that they, the wizards of the Church of Storms, were being used as "meat shields" for Connor Ferguson to hold off the Blackblood Fox Bear. This undoubtedly enraged De Zelby, and he secretly vowed that if he could return alive, he would settle this score with Connor Ferguson.

Having received a positive answer from De Zelby, Milik smiled slightly and said meaningfully, "Keep it up, there are already people waiting for us there!"

As soon as Milik finished speaking, without giving Dezelby any explanation, he sped up and flew straight toward the small waterfall. After a couple of seconds of stunned silence, Dezelby understood what Milik meant, glared at him resentfully, and followed Milik toward the small waterfall in the distance.

"Dezelby, you're finally back! I was worried you'd encountered the Blackblood Fox Bear!" Connor, who was sitting near the small waterfall pretending to be cultivating and recovering, exclaimed with feigned surprise upon sensing the arrival of Dezelby and his group. As he spoke to Dezelby, Connor's eyes secretly sized up the scarred-faced wizard walking beside him, a man with a fierce expression and dressed in a white robe of the Church of Storms.

Previously, due to the distance, Connor could not determine the person's cultivation level through his mental power, and could only make some vague guesses. However, now that they are close at hand, the person's cultivation level is clear to Connor. Connor's guess was correct; this person is indeed a formal wizard. In this case, the true identity of this scarred wizard is about to be revealed to Connor.

"Connor Ferguson, you've got a real knack for this!"

Seeing Connor Ferguson approaching with a beaming smile, De Zelby, who had just been tricked by Connor and nearly lost his life in a trap, couldn't suppress his anger. He glared at Connor Ferguson with resentment and gritted his teeth, saying:
