Wizard Earl

Chapter 615 Varga's Choice

"Alright! I'll let you go right now!" Varga seemed delighted by Tusam's words, a faint smile blooming on her pretty face. She appeared to have no doubt about Tusam's words at all. With her delicate white hands forming a magic seal, she struck the vine cage binding Tusam. However, with the support of the spell, a bizarre scene unfolded! An even larger vine cage was suddenly placed around the original cage binding Tusam!

"Dr. Varga, what are you doing?" Seeing the second layer, a larger and more sturdier vine cage, Tusam narrowed his eyes and coldly asked Varga.

Faced with Tusam's question, Varga sighed deeply, then looked at Tusam with some helplessness and said, "Everything I said is true, I didn't mean to lie to you. These two cages are nothing, I believe they can't hold Mr. Tusam. Why don't you try to escape yourself..."

After saying that, Varga didn't hesitate any longer. She turned around and ran back quickly. She was so fast that she had already covered dozens of meters in just a few breaths.

Seeing that his plans had been seen through by Varga, Tusam's eyes turned cold. The next second, a terrifying energy fluctuation surged from his body again, and a large amount of dense, viscous black energy surged out of his body, quickly corroding the two layers of vine cages that Varga had set up to trap him.

Unlike Varga's belief that Tusam didn't believe her and was playing a trick on her, trying to get her to open the cage so she could ambush him, Tusam felt that what Varga had just said was at least 80% true. However, even so, after some consideration, Tusam still decided to stick to his original plan to capture Varga alive. After hearing Varga's explanation of the Purifying Potion, Tusam was disappointed to find that the actual effects of the Purifying Potion were completely different from his wonderful expectations!

But the cold, cruel reality also gave rise to a thought in Tusam's mind!

Since the purifying potion couldn't solve the problem of his body becoming demonized, it seemed that a continuous supply of anti-demonic potions could also solve this problem...

To have a continuous supply of anti-magic potions, you first need an apothecary who can brew them. So, after being disappointed by the purifying potion, Tusam once again set his sights on Varga.

After Varga's introduction, Tusam's dream of completely eliminating the threat of demonization from his body with the purifying potion was shattered. Now, it is no exaggeration to describe Tusam's current situation as one of certain death!

As a former member of the Secret Society, Tusam knew very well how powerful their intelligence network in Rune was. He figured that in a few hours, Old Victor, at the Oyar Noodle Factory, would know what Tusam was doing. Then, under Old Victor's furious orders, Tusam would face a relentless pursuit from the Secret Society's many wizards in Rune. Even if Tusam was incredibly strong and incredibly lucky, managing to escape the Secret Society's pursuit, with only a dozen or so anti-magic potions on him, he wouldn't be able to withstand the threat of demonization for long before losing his mind and becoming a bloodthirsty beast. Such a living hell was far worse than death for Tusam!

Therefore, Tusam had nowhere to go and nowhere to retreat. His only chance was to survive in this hopeless situation and capture Varga, the genius apothecary of the secret society.

Capturing Varga alive would not only solve Tusam's problem with the anti-magic potion, but would also make the Secret Society hesitant to act when they were being pursued. After all, even with the Secret Society's strength, it would be extremely difficult to cultivate a genius apothecary.

Although Varga's vine cage was sturdy, it only lasted for about two minutes under the corrosive black energy released by Tusam. The two layers of vine cage completely collapsed and were swallowed up by the black energy, turning into nothingness. Tusam immediately broke free and chased after Varga in the direction she had run away!

As Varga sped through the park, she was constantly making a decision. Although she had used a little trick to catch Tusam off guard and buy herself a few minutes to escape, Varga dared not relax at all. She felt that as long as Tusam could maintain his speed, she would not be able to really shake him off in just a few minutes, and he would catch up with her again in no time.

So now Varga only has two choices. The first choice is to continue to the safe house she and Connor set out to, and then join forces with Connor to kill Tusam. If nothing unexpected happens, Connor should have already arrived at the safe house according to their agreement.

The biggest advantage of this choice is that the park where Varga is currently located is not far from the safe house; at Varga's current speed, it's probably only a ten-minute walk. However, the biggest disadvantage is that the safe house is near the Church's eye of the storm. If she and Connor engage in combat with Tusam near the safe house, they will most likely be discovered by the Church, and both Connor's and her identities could be exposed…

The thought that continuing to the safe house might expose Connor's identity because of her choice made Varga's beautiful eyes flash with determination. Without hesitation, she made her decision. Instead of going to the safe house as originally agreed with Connor, she turned around and headed in the exact opposite direction—the very direction Connor had once visited, to the Sensi Villa in the suburbs of Rune.

Varga didn't want Connor to take the risk, so she chose the second option: to go to Villa Sensi and transfer the risk of exposure to the secret society. While Villa Sensi was ostensibly developed by the Facchetti Consortium, the Facchetti Consortium actually transferred the actual ownership of Villa Sensi to the Valencia Chamber of Commerce a year after its completion.

Currently, Villa Sensi is under the actual control of the Valencia Chamber of Commerce, so it naturally became a point of contact for the Secret Society in Rune, hiding a considerable number of the Secret Society's people in Rune. Moreover, since it is in the suburbs, there is no Church Storm Eye monitoring energy fluctuations there. As long as the noise is not too loud, the Storm Church will absolutely not be able to detect it.

However, while going to Villa Sensi is nice, it also carries a significant risk. Varga's current location is quite far from Villa Sensi, and even at a high speed, it would take at least half an hour.
