Wizard Earl

Chapter 156 The Pleasant Moments of Beer and Fried Chicken!!

Seeing the results, Connor nodded in satisfaction. In the past week, apart from using the Spirit Nourishing Pearl to nurture his mental energy and prevent the mental trauma from worsening, and refining a demonized item, he had spent the rest of his time studying the insights Reyes had left him.

With the help of auxiliary chip simulation and analysis functions, Connor felt that the quality of his learning was very high after a week of study. It gave him a deeper understanding of mental power and mental magic, which was directly reflected in the - Ruyi Shadow Light.

Ruyi Shadow Light is the name of the spell Connor experimented with. It is a spell that Connor created with the help of an auxiliary chip. Its characteristic is that it is based on light sand. In theory, it can form any shape according to Connor's will to attack or defend for Connor!

Because it was a self-created spell, it was not yet fully mature compared to the spells recorded in the Ruyi Shadow Light and the Abyss Secrets. However, Connor was not in a hurry. He still had time to polish his first self-created spell.

After testing the spell, Connor put the broken steel plate back into his spatial ring. Although Margaret's unannounced arrival last time had not caused any harm so far, it had served as a wake-up call for Connor.

Although he has set up several alchemical mechanisms in his apartment, they all require him to activate them and cannot be opened automatically. As a result, if Connor is not at home and a criminal sneaks into his apartment, the apartment is basically undefended.

The most awkward part is that although he's aware of the hidden danger, his alchemy skills are currently limited by his cultivation level, putting him at a bottleneck. Connor can't change this situation for the time being. Therefore, Connor's solution is to completely eliminate any trace of the wizard in the apartment, ensuring that anyone who might come will find nothing...

After settling everything in the house, Connor changed into a casual outfit, tidied himself up in front of the mirror, and quietly pushed open the apartment door, boarding a public carriage bound for Green University.

Connor was quite lucky. He'd barely arrived at the station when a public carriage pulled in. After paying the fare, Connor settled into a window seat. He was slightly excited; today was the day he'd agreed to meet Varga. If all went well, he'd receive the Greenland potion today, and then, combined with the Spirit Nourishing Pearl, begin truly healing the mental trauma caused by his overexertion of mental energy.

Thinking of this, Connor subconsciously touched the spatial ring on his hand. As a man, he had always taken batches of potions from Varga for free. Although Varga was willing to let him take advantage of her, Connor had always felt a little guilty. So, in his spare time from studying the diary, Connor, as an alchemist, took the time to carefully craft a magical item as a return gift for Varga.

Half an hour later, the public carriage arrived at its final stop—Greene University. Connor stepped off the carriage and looked towards the villa where Reyes was. The villa gate was locked and looked deserted, clearly indicating that Reyes and his butler, old Victor, had already left.

Although he had expected this result, Connor still felt a sense of relief for no apparent reason upon seeing it.

Since becoming a member of the Secret Society under Reyes's tutelage, Reyes has been incredibly kind to Connor Ferguson, aside from having him deliver things and take some risks. If Connor's original background hadn't been so clean, he might now be wondering if Reyes was actually having an affair with old Ferguson...

However, perhaps Connor was too suspicious. The nicer Reyes was to him, the more suspicious Connor became. Now that Reyes was gone, Connor felt much more relaxed and suddenly had a feeling of freedom and boundless joy.

Shaking his head, Connor went straight to the fried chicken restaurant where he and Varga had agreed to meet that day. It was a little past four in the evening, the beginning of dinner time, and there weren't many students eating at the fried chicken restaurant. To Connor's surprise, although he had arrived early, Varga was already sitting at a table, waiting for him!

"Sorry I'm late!" Connor said apologetically as he sat down in the chair opposite Varga.

"No, I'm just early!" Varga smiled sweetly at Connor, looking very happy.

"What would you like to eat? It's on me!" Although he really wanted to ask about the Greenland potion, Connor didn't make it too obvious. He smiled, picked up the menu from the table, and handed it to Varga.

"Since Connor is treating, then I won't stand on ceremony. I'll make sure you, the future Earl, bleed a good sip!" Without mincing words with Connor, Varga picked up the menu, feigning a fierce expression, and said in a sweet voice:

A warm feeling welled up inside him, and Connor joked, "Valga, if you eat a lot, don't blame me for skipping out on the bill!"

"You dare!" Varga glared fiercely at Connor.

Although Varga said she wanted Connor to "bleed properly," she didn't actually order much food, just enough for two people.

A moment later, when all the dishes were served, Connor looked at the golden fried chicken in the small bowl, which was filled with the aroma of spices, and couldn't help but start eating. On Earth, fried chicken is a common food, and Connor is no stranger to it, but this is the first time he has ever eaten fried chicken in this world!

The golden appearance and the enticing aroma gave Connor a very good first impression of the fried chicken in front of him. He and Varga exchanged a knowing smile and started eating, devouring the food in front of them.

Connor took a bite and a look of enjoyment immediately appeared on his face. The fried chicken was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Although it was fried, it was not greasy. The juicy chicken meat was delicious, and you could clearly taste the flavor of the marinade spices. However, if you chewed carefully, you could still taste the original delicious flavor of the chicken.

After devouring a chicken cutlet, Connor, his hands greasy, waved to the waiter and said, "Do you have beer? If so, please bring me two large glasses!"

Upon hearing Connor's request, the quiet waitress, who was probably working part-time there, promptly brought Connor two full glasses of beer. Connor took the beer, casually took out a tenpence from his wallet, and handed it over as a tip.
