Wizard Earl

Chapter 561 Forced

Thinking of this, Connor felt a sense of anxiety. However, just as he was racking his brains to find a way to inform Margaret of the news as soon as possible, Connor suddenly discovered that his compass in his spatial ring was humming.

Connor's expression shifted, and he immediately took out the compass from his spatial ring. Upon closer inspection, the pointer, which had originally been pointing towards the Sels factory area, was now moving away from it and changing direction. Seeing this, Connor's eyes narrowed. Judging from the situation, it seemed as if Alex Sandro, who was holding his small bronze mirror, was constantly moving, and judging from the speed of his movement, it looked as if Mr. Alex Sandro was being chased.

"Sandro, you son of a bitch, let's see where you can run this time!" In an abandoned factory in the northern suburbs of Rune, Perrin glared at the disheveled Sandro in front of him and said viciously.

Since that day at the "Workers' House" tavern, Perrin and Wanda had been searching for Sandro. However, they weren't foolish enough to search every warehouse and workshop in search of Sandro. Wanda used a more ingenious method, which led them to find Sandro in Warehouse No. 6 in Valladolid. Because there were many workers in Valladolid during the day, after weighing the pros and cons, they decided not to cause too much of a stir and attract the attention of the Storm Church.

Wanda and Perrin did not attack Sandro immediately upon discovering him. Instead, they monitored him for several more hours until evening at the Valladolid factory, when all the workers had gone home and only the two old night watchmen remained. Then, they quietly made their move on Sandro!

Clearly, Sandro hadn't anticipated that Wanda and Perrin would chase him to the Valladolid factory. In the ensuing struggle, although Sandro managed to fight his way out of Wanda and Perrin's attack thanks to his formidable strength, he was still seriously injured.

Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Sandro ignored Perrin's shouts and turned his gaze to the silent Wanda, his eyes becoming increasingly serious.

"You've tampered with me?" Sandro asked Wanda, his face expressionless and his voice icy cold.

Alex Sandro, having become a high-ranking wizard apprentice, was certainly not stupid. His first discovery by Wanda and Perrin at the villa in the southern suburbs could be considered accidental, and his second discovery in the warehouse of the Valladolid factory could also be considered a coincidence. But now, being discovered by these two for the third time here, it is clear that this can no longer be explained by coincidence or chance. One of Wanda and Perrin must have done something to him that he doesn't know about, which is why he can't shake off these two and is being relentlessly pursued.

Alex Sandro did not believe that Perrin had the ability to tamper with him, so the only person who could do that was Wanda, the senior wizard apprentice he had known for decades!

"That's right! I've put my unique scent on you, so no matter where you go, I'll catch up with you. So I advise you not to make any futile resistance and hand over that little bronze mirror!" Seeing that Alex Sandro had realized the problem, Wanda stopped hiding it and nodded in agreement.

Upon hearing Wanda's admission, Sandro closed his eyes slightly and sighed. When he opened his eyes again a second later, a small bronze mirror appeared in his hand. Upon seeing the small bronze mirror in Sandro's hand, both Wanda and Perrin's eyes gleamed with greed.

Sandro's gaze swept over the small bronze mirror he had taken from Ferguson's apartment. His face was filled with disappointment and regret. Although he hadn't found any information about the fire-attribute gem on the mirror so far, he really didn't want to hand it over to Wanda and Perrin if things weren't like this. However, he knew very well that if he didn't hand it over, given his current condition, he would likely die at their hands if the fight continued. So, rather than letting Wanda and Perrin retrieve the item from his spatial ring from his corpse, he was better off handing it over now.

Under Wanda and Perrin's watchful eyes, Sandro's large hand stroked the small bronze mirror. Just as Perrin's eyes became somewhat anxious and he looked eager to snatch the item from Sandro's hand, he saw Sandro move his hand, and the small bronze mirror transformed into a streak of light, flying from Sandro's hand towards him.

Although it was somewhat unexpected that Sandro would hand over the small bronze mirror to him, Perrin was overjoyed and didn't think much of it. He immediately reached out and caught the small bronze mirror that flew towards him.

After handing over the small bronze mirror, Sandro didn't say anything more, nor did he look at Wanda and Perrin again. He simply turned and walked towards the woods outside the factory. This time, neither Perrin, who had been shouting incessantly, nor the cunning Wanda, stopped Sandro from leaving. For these two, killing Sandro wasn't their goal; their only target was the small bronze mirror. They wouldn't kill Sandro unless absolutely necessary. After all, they knew how powerful Sandro was. If they really pushed him to the brink, although he would certainly die, his desperate last stand might allow him to take one of them with him...

Furthermore, Sandro's formal wizarding mentor, Quinta, has always been very powerful within their respective wizarding organization, the Celtic Cult. If Quinta knew Sandro was dead, he would certainly not let it go and would want to find the murderer to avenge Alex Sandro. Although the two of them would definitely cover up the traces carefully after killing Sandro to prevent being discovered, once Quinta found out, they would face the wrath of a formal wizard... In short, killing Sandro would not bring them much benefit.

Watching Sandro's departing figure, Wanda's eyes flashed with resentment. This Alex Sandro, even after deciding to hand over the item, still managed to trick her. Now that the item is in Perrin's hands, it will be extremely difficult for her to get it back from Perrin.
