Wizard Earl

Chapter 566 Taking Action (4)

"what!"

Alex Sandro screamed like a pig being slaughtered as the abyssal chains that had pierced his shoulder continued to devour his flesh and mana, like a bottomless abyss.

Tormented by the chains of the abyss, Alex Sandro painfully tossed his massive steel shield to the ground, then pleaded into the thick black fog, "Connor Ferguson, I'll tell you anything you want to know, just take this thing out of my body! I beg you, please, hurry!"

"Tell me whatever you want to know? Heh, I don't need it anymore!" Connor's voice echoed throughout the magic circle, and as his voice faded, Connor's figure appeared in Alex Sandro's field of vision.

As Connor approached him step by step, Sandro seemed to understand what Connor intended to do. His fierce face was now filled with terror as he struggled to retreat, but where could he run in his severely injured state? Because of the Abyss Chains binding him, even if Alex Sandro wanted to self-destruct and take Connor with him, he would need Connor's permission!

Under Alex Sandro's terrified gaze, Connor's large hand rested on his head. Sandro's eyes, which had been filled with fear just a moment ago, now became dazed and confused under Connor's mind control.

With the aid of the Soul-Seizing Technique, Connor intently read Sandro's memories, hoping to find out what he wanted to know, such as the records of the Crystal Sealing Technique, the records of the fire-attribute gem hidden in the Crystal Sealing Technique, and the Celta Cult's personnel in Rune, etc.

Half an hour later, looking somewhat dejected, Connor withdrew his hand from Alex Sandro's head. Using Mind Control to read the memories of a wizard of the same rank was a difficult task, even for someone with Connor's mental strength. Moreover, in order to make his examination more thorough and not miss any valuable parts of Sandro's memories, Connor had persisted in using Mind Control for a full half hour.

The prolonged use of the Soul-Capturing Technique had greatly depleted Connor's mental energy. However, if he didn't continue, the injuries caused by the backlash of his magic might recur, and Connor might continue searching through Sandro's memories.

Despite being physically and mentally exhausted, Connor couldn't hide the excited smile on his face. Although his questions hadn't been fully answered from Alex Sandro's memories, the gains he had made from Sandro's memories were still very satisfying for Connor!

Connor glanced at Alex Sandro, who was lying unconscious on the ground, and a sneer appeared on his lips. Although this man looked like a ruthless character, he was completely vulnerable when resisting Connor's soul-capturing technique. He collapsed at the first touch and was nothing more than a silver spear with a candle tip!

As for now, after a series of domineering soul-capturing spells, Connor, the caster, is exhausted. As the wizard whose soul has been captured, Alex Sandro's divine sea is now completely shattered. Even if he is saved now, he will be mentally impaired for the rest of his life, becoming a madman and an idiot.

Seeing Alex Sandro's lack of reaction and consciousness, Connor, having read Sandro's memories, knew that Sandro had to die, but he absolutely could not die by his own hand. Alex Sandro did indeed have a very powerful formal wizard mentor named Belotti. Judging from Sandro's memories, this wizard Belotti was not only extremely powerful but also fiercely protective of his own. Most importantly, he had placed a unique curse on Alex Sandro; whoever killed Alex Sandro would be haunted by this curse forever, making it incredibly difficult to deal with!

Of course, Connor had dealt with cases like Alex Sandro's many times before and was quite experienced. He first erased all traces of himself and Sandro in the warehouse, and then wiped the memory of the old night watchman of the lumber warehouse. Connor then took the unconscious Alex Sandro to a remote, uninhabited mountain near Loen, and then put some insect-attracting powder on Sandro's body before hiding in the distance.

Moments later, under the gaze of Connor's telescope, thousands of mosquitoes and ants, attracted by the drug, swarmed onto Sandro's body. In just over ten minutes, Alex Sandro's body was riddled with holes and showed no signs of life.

At that moment, Connor witnessed the curse Belotti had placed on Sandro. A purplish-red rune he had never seen before rose from Sandro's corpse and instantly struck the mosquitoes and ants gnawing at his body. How could those mosquitoes and ants withstand such a powerful energy impact? They were immediately reduced to dust in swathes, disappearing without a trace in the mountain wind...

"Who? Who killed my student?"

In a detached villa in the Garotenia region of the Kaman Empire, bordering the Kingdom of Posis, a gloomy-faced old man stared at the shattered clay figure in his hand and roared angrily:

With his roar, a powerful energy surged from his body, far exceeding the capabilities of a wizarding apprentice. Even among first-level wizards, this was the mark of an absolute powerhouse! And the clay figure in his hand, upon closer inspection, was none other than Alex Sandro, the very man Connor had just murdered, his body mutilated beyond recognition…

At this moment, the person who started all of this had no idea what was happening in the Garotenia region. He was in his safe house on Ramsey Street in the North District of Rune, examining a crystal ball in his hand with the alchemical magnifying glass. At this moment, the crystal ball contained a dazzling ruby ​​ring!

Connor gained a lot from Alex Sandro's memories, including what interested him most: the crystal sealing technique used to seal the fire-attribute gem. Although Alex Sandro himself did not understand the crystal sealing technique, his memories told Connor that the crystal sealing technique had been passed down in great detail in the Celta Church for hundreds of years!
