Wizard Earl

Chapter 550 Miscalculation

Ordinary people, lacking cultivation, possess no spiritual power, making their souls extremely fragile. If a wizard whose control over their spiritual power isn't at a high level attempts to manipulate an ordinary person's soul, there's a 99% chance the soul will explode, and the wizard themselves will suffer a backlash! Even if they manage to manipulate it successfully, given the soul's resilience, an ordinary person will undoubtedly die within a week to a day!

Judging from the sanitation worker's movements as he cleaned the trash can, although there were some minor inconsistencies, the overall movements were very smooth. This means that the wizard who was hiding in the shadows and controlling the sanitation worker had a very high level of control over his mental power!

A psychic wizard! A high-level psychic wizard apprentice!

Connor's eyes gleamed as he muttered to himself. Since the sanitation worker being manipulated exhibited uncoordinated movements that he could observe, it meant that the wizard controlling the sanitation worker had not yet reached the level of a formal wizard. Otherwise, any formal wizard, whether or not a psychic wizard, would be able to manipulate the sanitation worker's movements without Connor being able to detect any flaws.

To be able to manipulate the souls of ordinary people so smoothly without being a formal wizard, Connor couldn't think of any other possibility besides a high-level psychic wizard apprentice!

"Isn't Connor Ferguson home yet?" In a room at the Osasuna Hotel, number 51 Land Street, East Loen, Wanda asked somewhat impatiently, looking at Perrin who was manipulating an ancient-looking token.

"Shut up!" Wanda was impatiently manipulating the token. Palin seemed even more impatient than her, and she retorted very firmly to Wanda's question.

The word "shut up" immediately brought a hint of anger to Wanda's well-maintained face. However, when she saw the fine beads of sweat and bulging veins on Palin's forehead as he was fully focused on controlling the token, she silently closed her mouth and did not disturb Palin's operation.

A few minutes later, Perrin cast the final spell on the token in his hand, and his expression immediately calmed down, no longer tense. A dozen seconds later, Perrin wiped the token on his belt, and the token disappeared instantly.

Exhaling a breath of stale air, Perrin shifted his gaze to Wanda, the middle-aged beauty who had been watching him intently, and said with some displeasure, "I've already told you, this token is difficult to operate, so don't bother me anymore, okay? Although this token can assist in controlling the soul, if I don't control it properly, not only will I be in trouble, but you're so close to me, do you think you can escape?"

Listening to Palin, who was decades younger than her, reprimand her mercilessly, Wanda's face turned pale and then red, but perhaps realizing her mistake, she didn't retaliate.

Perhaps not wanting to provoke Wanda too much, Perrin vented his anger by saying a few words, but then stopped talking and changed the subject to answer Wanda's question.

"My sensors still haven't detected any activity at Ferguson's apartment. That Connor Ferguson probably doesn't live there..." Perrin's face showed a hint of disdain as he continued, "Connor Ferguson is the heir to the Earl's throne. A social parasite like him, not returning to his apartment for so long, is probably either hooking up with some woman or fooling around in some bar!"

Wanda, sensing the disdain in Palin's words, didn't seem to care. She frowned and pondered for a moment before continuing to ask Palin, "How many more days can the sensor you installed in the trash can last?"

"I just controlled this old sanitation worker to replace the energy block of the sensor. The sensor should last about five days now!" This time, Palin answered Wanda's question without hesitation.

After saying that, Perrin seemed to remember something, a mysterious smile appearing on his face. Then, he said meaningfully to Wanda, "Although my sensors didn't find Connor Ferguson in the Ferguson apartment, I didn't come away empty-handed!"

Upon hearing Perrin's words, Wanda was initially taken aback, but then, realizing the implication, she exclaimed with some surprise, "You found that guy Alex Sandro?"

"That's right!" This time, Perrin didn't keep them in suspense and gave a direct affirmative answer. Then, he swiped his hand across his belt again, and the token reappeared in his hand. He pointed at the token, and the ancient token immediately emitted a faint yellow light. Then, a faint image appeared on the token. Although the image wasn't very clear, Perrin and Wanda could still clearly see that it depicted a bald, ordinary-looking man wearing a black coat, standing on the street behind the Ferguson Apartments. Judging from the bald man's expression, he was very alert and was carefully observing the Ferguson Apartments.

"I remember Sandro used this disguise when he was on a mission in the Manzano province, didn't he?" Perrin said in a deep voice, pointing to the bald, black-robed man on the screen.

"Yes! That time, I partnered with him on a mission, and he used this disguise. Sandro's magic is suited for nighttime operations under the cover of darkness. He's probably scouting the location right now!" After carefully observing the bald, black-robed man on the screen, Wanda nodded in affirmation.

"Now that it's confirmed to be Sandro, Wanda, should we prepare to take action against Sandro as you planned?" Perrin asked Wanda unconsciously. Although it wasn't his first time leaving the organization and going out on his own, he still lacked experience in the wizarding world and subconsciously wanted Wanda to make the decision.

Wanda didn't immediately answer Perrin's question. Her fair face remained expressionless, but a hint of hesitation flickered in her eyes. Her original plan was to wait until Sandro had obtained what he needed from Connor Ferguson, and the Storm Church's attention was focused on Alex Sandro. Then, she would strike Sandro, killing two birds with one stone: taking what she needed from him and using him as a shield against the Storm Church's threat. But now it seemed she had miscalculated…
