Wizard Earl

Chapter 377 Assault (3)

As for Connor, he now needs to break the array that was originally set up in the villa within twenty minutes. This array is very powerful, and Dr. Gulsi can most likely control it. If he doesn't destroy the array quickly, it will be much more difficult to kill Dr. Gulsi, who will be aided by the array, once he returns to the apartment in twenty minutes.

Using his alchemical knowledge, Connor spent fifteen minutes figuring out the structure of the magic array in the villa. He then used his mental power to sense several energy nodes of the magic array. Connor felt a little relieved. It seemed that Ceballos was not likely to control the magic array in the villa. Otherwise, given the energy of the magic array, it would have been much more difficult for him to enter the villa and capture him alive.

Connor took out several crystal alchemical bombs from his spatial ring and placed them on the energy nodes he sensed in the villa. With a thought, the bombs exploded in a small area under Connor's control. Although Connor controlled the area of ​​the explosion, the effect was still very significant. The energy nodes were destroyed from the inside, and the magic array in the villa immediately stopped operating and became paralyzed. The magic array in this state would definitely not be able to be repaired in a short time.

Sensing Dr. Gulsi's presence rapidly approaching from afar, Connor retrieved the Castilian Staff from his spatial ring and held it in his hand, then secretly fastened the silver pendant to his wrist.

Fifteen seconds after Connor finished doing all this, Dr. Gulsey walked into the villa and came into Connor's sight.

Seeing Connor suddenly appear in the villa, Dr. Gulsi seemed unsurprised. She gave Connor a deep look, then her gaze swept over Ceballos, who lay weakly and disheveled on the villa floor. A flash of anger immediately appeared in Dr. Gulsi's eyes. Without hesitation, she walked to Ceballos's side in front of Connor, quickly examined him, and then coldly asked Connor, "What did you feed Ceballos?"

"Don't worry! It's just an alchemical bomb!" Connor, holding the Castilian Staff, smiled and waved his hand dismissively.

Just a minute ago, Connor's plan was to launch a swift mental attack the moment Dr. Gulsi entered the villa, catching him off guard and aiming for a quick victory. However, once Dr. Gulsi stepped into the villa, Connor changed his mind...

The reason Connor changed his mind was simple: just as Dr. Gulsi was about to enter the villa, Connor clearly sensed the energy fluctuations of a second-tier defensive enchanted item emanating from her. Moreover, Dr. Gulsi had already activated this item, meaning she was aware of the potential attack upon entering the villa and already had a countermeasure. Even a weak second-tier defensive enchanted item was clearly not something Connor could quickly break through and resolve quickly.

The reason a sneak attack is a sneak attack is because it takes the opponent by surprise and doesn't give them time to prepare. Now that the opponent is clearly prepared, launching a sneak attack now is essentially meaningless. In addition, Connor is not arrogant enough to believe that he can quickly kill a wizard of the same level who is known to possess a top-tier second-tier enchanted item and a second-tier defensive enchanted item, and whose cultivation is far superior to his own, even though this wizard seems to rarely fight!

"I don't know what Varga told you, but Connor, I want to tell you that Varga is smarter and more terrifying than you think..." Hearing that Connor had actually made his son eat the alchemical bomb, Dr. Gulsi's face undoubtedly became even more gloomy. However, to Connor's surprise, Dr. Gulsi suppressed his anger and calmly said these words to Connor.

"Dr. Gulsi, you seem very certain that my arrival is related to Varga!" Connor said with a squinty eye and a smile, seemingly unaffected by Dr. Gulsi's words.

"Connor, I'm not as ignorant and foolish as you think. Although Varga handled your affair very cleanly, how could I possibly be completely unaware of it all under my watchful eye?" Dr. Gulsi retorted with a cold laugh.

"I thought Varga would come by herself, but to my surprise, she actually sent me out to have you attack this place. That's quite unexpected! Connor, since you're here, you must know from Varga that I forced her to marry my son and used a dual cultivation technique to heal his injuries, right? But did Varga tell you who beat my son like this?" In front of Connor, Dr. Gulsi made no attempt to hide anything and bluntly stated everything!

Hearing Dr. Gulsi's words, Connor maintained a calm, faint smile, seemingly unchanged from before. However, his heart was in turmoil. Did Gulsi's implication mean that the person who injured Ceballos was actually...?

Without giving Connor much time to think, Dr. Gulsi bluntly stated Connor's thoughts: "The person who beat my son Ceballos like this is none other than your little lover, Varga, Connor Ferguson!" Dr. Gulsi's tone was resolute, clearly indicating that she was very confident in her answer.

"As a member of the Secret Society, Connor, you should be well aware that the Society was hunting down a female intermediate-level wizarding apprentice who used blood witchcraft a while ago, right? Do you know why she was being hunted down? Because she secretly infiltrated my hospital and controlled Ceballos, trying to learn the hospital's secrets by using a truth serum on Ceballos. I originally thought my son's injury was caused by that woman who secretly infiltrated, but until a month ago, when I was examining Ceballos's condition, I accidentally discovered this toxin..." At this point, Dr. Gulsi took out a potion bottle from his spatial ring and threw it to Connor.

A flicker of hesitation crossed Connor's eyes, but he ultimately caught the vial from mid-air. However, out of caution, he didn't examine the vial, instead simply placing it into his spatial ring. He then said casually to Dr. Gulsi, "So what?"
