Wizard Earl

Chapter 630 Be careful!

Upon hearing Connor's seemingly random remark, Tusam's eyes narrowed instantly. He was puzzled as to why Connor was so suddenly certain that Varga was dead at his hands. After a quick thought, Tusam decided to be cautious and clarify his meaning. He feigned some doubt and asked Connor, "Dr. Varga was perfectly fine. How could she be dead? And I don't understand why you, Connor Ferguson, believe I killed Dr. Varga? Dr. Varga concocted anti-magic potions for me and my men. We're so grateful to her; how could we possibly repay kindness with enmity?"

At this point, Tusam paused, then decided to drop a bombshell on Connor, speaking with a hint of mystery: "Young Master Connor, old Victor, as your teacher's butler, has always harbored ill intentions towards you. You must be careful not to mess with him!"

When Connor heard the enigmatic words "your teacher's butler" from Tusam, the leader of the demonized knights, his pupils shrank. His identity had always been kept very secret within the secret society of Rune. Only old Victor and Martina knew about his master-disciple relationship with Reyes. How did Tusam find out now?

As Connor's gaze swept over Tusam, a playful smile appeared on his usually calm face. He then shook his head. Just as Tusam was puzzled by Connor's behavior and wondered what he was trying to say, two abyssal chains suddenly materialized in Connor's hands and attacked Tusam simultaneously.

In stark contrast to Tusam's desire to find a way out from Connor, Connor had meticulously planned and executed this operation step by step. How could he possibly let Tusam, a potential threat, go?

When Connor learned that Tusam was connected to Varga's disappearance, he had already decided to get rid of Tusam as soon as possible, no matter what. What's more, now that Tusam knew about his relationship with Reyes, even for his own safety, Connor had to get rid of Tusam. Connor wanted to see who had told Tusam about his relationship with Reyes!

Although slightly surprised by Connor's sudden attack, Tusam reacted quickly, releasing a large amount of black energy to envelop himself. The Abyss Chains, attacking from the left and right, plunged into the black energy. The black flames carried by the Abyss Chains were immediately consumed upon contact with the black energy, failing to achieve the intended effect of its innate spell. However, Connor seemed unconcerned, calmly continuing to inject mana into the Abyss Chains, supporting their consumption within Tusam's black energy.

Tusam, watching Connor's actions from within the black mist, gritted his teeth, a look of helplessness appearing in his eyes. This Connor Ferguson, as the professor's student, was far too cunning. Knowing that he was seriously injured, he still wanted to wage a war of attrition against him. If Connor had launched a full-scale attack from the outset without holding back, Tusam felt that he might have been able to create a miracle and catch Connor Ferguson off guard.

But now, in a war of attrition, everything depends on pure strength. Using underhanded tactics and sneak attacks is completely useless. He is currently seriously injured, and if he tries to outlast Connor Ferguson, it won't be long before he can't hold on and is at Connor Ferguson's mercy!

"Connor Ferguson, don't you want to know how I knew the Secret Society was so secretive about Dr. Varga? And who told me you were a professor's student?" Having only fought for a few seconds before faltering, Tusam, amidst the black mist, shouted hoarsely to Connor:

Connor showed no intention of answering Tusam's questions, continuing to pour mana into the Abyssal Chains. Given Tusam's cunning, even if Tusam answered now, Connor might not fully believe him. Therefore, Connor thought it would be cleaner and more efficient for him to use Soul Reaper on Tusam later!

Seeing that Connor didn't respond, a mad glint appeared in Tusam's eyes as he continued, "Connor Ferguson, I know you're a psychic wizard. You just want to capture me and use your psychic magic to find the answers in my head, right? I'm telling you, I'll give you five seconds. If you don't stop, I'll self-destruct, and you'll never know who's behind this!"

Hearing Tusam's threat, Connor raised an eyebrow, a cold glint flashing in his eyes. Tusam was truly ruthless. For wizards or demonized knights, self-destruction was always a last resort; once it happened, the soul would be completely annihilated, never to exist again…

After a few glances, Connor finally waved his hand and retrieved the Abyss Chains that had entered Tusam's black aura. Tusam still had a fighting chance, and Connor couldn't capture him alive in five seconds. If he really self-destructed and his soul was annihilated, Connor's Soul-Seizing Technique would naturally no longer be able to obtain any information from him.

Connor, having retrieved the Abyss Chains, coldly stared at Tusam within the black mist. Although he had stopped now, the guy in front of him was like a cooked duck—he might be stubborn, but he was definitely not going to fly away.

Even though Connor withdrew the Abyss Chains and stopped attacking it, it seemed that Tusam still didn't trust Connor. The black aura he released was still there, and he hid in the black aura, constantly on guard against Connor.

"Connor Ferguson, I want you to swear that you'll let me go as soon as I tell you the answer!" Perhaps driven by the fear of death, Tusam had gradually lost his mind, and he was desperately pinning all his hopes for survival on the answer to this question.

Do you think it's possible?

Tusam's foolish behavior amused Connor, who looked at the black mist before him and said sarcastically:

"You know this person I'm talking about. He's like a venomous snake, lurking around you and watching you. If you don't know who he is, you'll fall into his hands sooner or later!" In order to save his own life, Tusam desperately exaggerated the terror of this "mastermind," trying to arouse Connor's fear.

"snort!"

Connor scoffed at Tusam's exaggerated claims, but just as he was about to say something, his eyes widened in surprise, and he suddenly shouted at Tusam, who was hidden in the black mist, "Watch out!"
