Wizard Earl

After hearing the whole story from Margaret, Connor fell into deep thought.

According to Margaret, this incident was orchestrated by the Duke's faction, who in order to force Reyes, who was hiding in the shadows, to come out. They instructed the Moro Society to send people to attack him.

Now, Southgate and Bispin, two of Professor's trusted lieutenants, have attacked the Moro Society. Clearly, they did so on Reyes' orders!

Although he was reluctant to admit it, Connor was well aware that at first glance, this incident would inevitably make people think that Reyes was avenging himself by attacking the Moro Society. Although he did not personally take action, since he arranged for Bisping and Southgate to do so, it could be considered that the Duke's faction had achieved their goal of forcing Reyes out!

Before Connor could ponder this further, he felt Margaret watching him with a meaningful gaze. Although she didn't say anything, Connor clearly understood the meaning behind her gaze. He shook his head at Margaret and said helplessly, "I really have no contact with Reyes. To be honest, it's been almost ten years since I last saw my teacher, Ruen..."

When Connor said this, he and Margaret were both focused on each other and neither noticed the barely perceptible strange look that flashed in Varga's beautiful eyes.

Seeing that Connor didn't seem to be faking it, Margaret, though still somewhat doubtful, nodded and signaled to Connor that she believed him.

After recounting this incident, the three chatted about other things in the cave. Margaret then quietly left the cave, leaving only Connor and Varga inside.

"Connor, there's something I need to tell you!"

After hesitating for a moment, Varga looked at Connor very seriously and said:

Seeing the serious expression on Varga's pretty face, Connor was slightly surprised, then nodded, signaling Varga to continue.

At Connor's signal, Varga took out a palm-sized white jade box from her spatial ring and showed it to Connor, then said, "Connor, do you remember what I wanted to talk to you about before you were attacked by Diego Lopez?"

Hearing Margaret's words, Connor was taken aback at first, then remembered that Varga had asked him to discuss something at Ferguson Manor that day. He had been attacked by Diego Lopez on his way there, and because his injuries from the beating were so severe, he had focused on healing and forgotten about what Varga wanted to discuss with him…

Thinking of this, Connor's attention naturally focused on the white jade box in Varga's hand. If he was not mistaken, what Varga was talking about should be related to this white jade box.

Seeing that Connor had realized what was happening, Varga handed him the white jade box and said, "A while ago, when I was collecting potions in the black markets of the surrounding cities, a wizard came to Ferguson's mansion. He didn't trigger the restriction you left, Connor, and then left this thing in my ice storage for potions. When I discovered this white jade box, I immediately arranged to meet you, Connor..."

Connor, who had just received the white jade box from Varga, immediately became serious upon hearing this. If Margaret was right, then there were only two possibilities for entering Ferguson's mansion without triggering the restrictions he had left behind.

The first possibility is that the person who came was extremely skilled and had a very deep understanding of alchemy. The restrictions set up by Connor were completely invisible to him, which is why he was able to secretly put the jade box into Ferguson's mansion and not punish the restrictions set up by Connor.

The second possibility is that the person who came was also quite powerful, at least a formal wizard, but was extremely familiar with the restrictions set up by Connor. Therefore, they could also sneak into Ferguson's mansion and leave this white jade box without triggering Connor's restrictions.

However, since Reyes inherited alchemy, Connor has always kept his knowledge to himself and has never taught his alchemy to anyone. Therefore, it is impossible for anyone to be familiar with Connor's restrictions. However, Connor's alchemy is ultimately inherited from Reyes. If someone is familiar with "Reyes Alchemy" or has received guidance from Reyes, then perhaps it is possible to infiltrate Ferguson Mansion without triggering the restrictions.

Of course, no matter what the final outcome may be, it will undoubtedly be very troublesome for Connor!

After carefully examining the palm-sized white jade box for a while, Connor had an answer in mind. Then, he hesitated for a moment, and then gently pressed his fingers on the surface of the jade box in a certain pattern. Under Connor's pressing, the originally calm jade box suddenly shone with colorful light, which made Varga, who was standing aside, marvel.

A few seconds later, the light emanating from the jade box reached its peak. With a crisp sound, the jade box shattered into four pieces, revealing a letter inside…

"This is······?"

Looking at the letter in the jade box, Varga said with surprise and doubt:

"Reyes!"

After Connor finished speaking, he reached out and beckoned the letter to him. The jade box was made using Reyes's unique alchemy, so it was obvious who had sent the letter inside.

Under Varga's watchful gaze, Connor opened the letter, took out the paper, and began to examine its contents. However, after just one glance, Connor's brows furrowed.

Seeing Connor's expression, Varga was also very curious about what was written on the letter Reyes had sent. Just then, Connor, who had only looked at the letter for ten seconds, put it down and began to think deeply with a furrowed brow.

"Connor, what did Reyes say to you?" Varga couldn't suppress her curiosity any longer and asked Connor.

Upon hearing Varga's question, Connor remained silent, simply handing her the letter. Varga took it and examined it closely, a look of surprise appearing on her pretty face…

The letter that Reyes had carefully placed in a jade box and secretly delivered to Ferguson's mansion was completely blank; nothing was written on it!
