Wizard Earl

Chapter 413 Delivering Letters

Sensing the lingering presence of Varga in the room, Connor focused his attention on the three things Varga had left him.

Connor had to admit that Varga's words were quite appealing to him, and he began to look forward to the day a month from now when he would learn the whole story from Varga.

To poison old Victor with a poison pill?

It sounded like a good suggestion, but Connor didn't want to act rashly. First of all, old Victor should be in the barrier manor in Norwich Forest. Judging from the alchemy mission he had completed in the manor, Connor's intuition told him that old Victor was probably busy with something very important, at least for a while, and he wouldn't have time for him.

Secondly, a month is not a long time. Although Connor does not believe that Varga would really help the Secret Society to deal with him, it is still necessary to be on guard. It is not too late to take action after a month when Varga has told him everything.

Varga made a very good point. Ever since the last turmoil in the Secret Society of Rune, the Secret Society that blew up the Rune branch and killed a God of Punishment of the Church has been completely targeted by the Church of Storms. Even his teacher, Reyes, a second-level wizard, was forced to flee, let alone the other official wizards of the Secret Society.

If the Secret Society really wanted to take action against him, Connor was certain that he would hand it over to old Victor, who was in Rune. However, to poison old Victor like he killed Gulsi would be many times more difficult than killing Dr. Gulsi. Killing him would require careful planning and thorough preparation!

In the grove near Luenglin University late at night, Connor, clad in a black magic robe that shrouded his entire body, was moving swiftly. Today was the last day for old Victor to give him the opportunity to choose his reward. In the booklet, Connor had already selected the reward he deserved for completing the alchemy task assigned by the secret society.

It has been almost two years since Reyes left Rune after the turmoil ended, and Reyes' villa is still empty. However, the villa does not look very old from the outside. Every month, a professional cleaning company comes to clean the villa. The cleaning company does not enter the apartment to clean, but only cleans the villa's garden and exterior walls.

Connor had already investigated long ago. The company providing cleaning services for Reyes' villa was called Lehman Cleaning Company, a company that specializes in cleaning services for estates and villas. Although the company's background was secretive, Connor still managed to uncover some clues. The company's boss, Lehman, had a sister who was the mistress of a bigwig in the Valencia Chamber of Commerce. As a result, the cleaning company was able to take on many orders from the Valencia Chamber of Commerce and made quite a bit of money!

Knowing that it was related to the Valenciva Chamber of Commerce, Connor did not continue the investigation, because it was meaningless. He had been very clear about the connection between the Valenciva Chamber of Commerce and the Secret Society for a long time.

After glancing around to make sure no one was paying attention to him, Connor, hidden beneath his black robe, took out a letter from his pocket and slowly dropped it into the mailbox at Reyes' villa. Having done this, Connor didn't linger there any longer, turning around and disappearing into the dark forest once more. Having told old Victor what he wanted in return, all he had to do now was wait in the apartment for the secret society to deliver the payment.

After advancing for about ten minutes, just as Connor was about to leave the grove near Green University, his mental power, far exceeding that of his peers, allowed him to sense another wizard, also shrouded in a black robe, moving towards the grove from a distance.

A hint of doubt flashed in Connor's eyes as he quickly thought through the situation. Judging from the wizard's speed and the energy fluctuations he sensed with his mental power, the wizard was not weak and should be at the level of a high-level wizard apprentice. In about five minutes, this wizard who had suddenly appeared would arrive at his current location.

Behind the grove of trees are only the campus of Green University and some small villas. For wizards, this place is not considered a valuable location. However, apart from the Green University campus and villas, the grove of trees is surrounded by desolate wilderness. It has no value whatsoever, not even a ghost in sight!

After thinking for a moment, Connor moved his black robe and disappeared behind a very well-hidden tree in the grove. Connor thought of a possibility: the wizard who was rushing towards him might be a member of the secret society. Today was the last day of the agreement between Old Victor and him, and it was already late at night. In half an hour, it would be tomorrow. So Old Victor had sent someone to pick up his letter.

This possibility is not impossible, but the people who came to pick up the letter were all advanced wizard apprentices. The secret society's power in Rune is exaggerated!

With this thought in mind, Connor, hiding behind a large tree, concealed his aura and energy fluctuations, carefully observing the wizard who was rapidly advancing in this direction. Connor's identity was special, and even if the person who came was indeed Old Victor as he suspected, Connor naturally could not openly meet him. Hiding behind the tree and secretly spying was a good choice.

The moment this wizard suddenly appeared and entered the grove, for no apparent reason, Connor had a feeling that he seemed to recognize him…

Connor was startled by his own intuition. To avoid revealing his identity, Connor had attended many wizard gatherings, but he was always very careful and rarely met other wizards. He knew very few wizards, and even fewer high-level wizard apprentices. However, Connor's intuition had always been very accurate. Could it be that he really knew this person?

With questions in mind, Connor, hidden behind the tree, naturally focused his attention, trying to observe more information from the mysterious black-robed wizard who was moving through the grove, in order to confirm the man's identity.

"Not old Victor... not Martina... not Varga..." Just as Connor was staring at the person and eliminating possibilities in his mind, the person suddenly disappeared from Connor's sight!
