Wizard Earl

Chapter 663 Information

Alchemy bombs are highly destructive and lethal, and their use could easily result in the accidental killing of civilians. They pose a significant threat to society. Therefore, in the event of an incident involving alchemy bombs, not only the Storm Church will investigate, but even the Imperial Secret Service, which usually turns a blind eye to dark wizards, will conduct a full-scale search to find the wizard who used the alchemy bomb and the alchemist who created it. This is why Strowman hesitated so much when he saw that the alchemical materials in the spatial ring given to him by Martina were for making alchemy bombs, and why he tried to persuade Martina to abandon her decision.

Although the alchemical bombs were now in her possession, and Martina knew they would explode at the slightest thought, she decided that she would never use them unless her life was threatened. With that in mind, Martina found a jade box, placed the five Avar alchemical bombs inside, and carefully put them back into her spatial ring.

Having just finished this, Martina was about to cultivate for a while, but she seemed to notice something unusual. She raised an eyebrow and pointed at the wall. The bronze mirror hidden in the wall popped out, and the image shown in the bronze mirror was Strootman rhythmically knocking on the door according to the code.

Martina looked at the bronze mirror with a hint of doubt in her beautiful eyes. Strootman had clearly come yesterday and handed her the alchemical bomb. Hadn't she told him not to come here in the next few days to avoid attracting attention and revealing his identity? Why was he here again in less than a day?

Despite her displeasure at Strootman's return, Martina pointed at the bronze mirror, retracting it into the wall and letting Strootman in.

Because she was working alongside the cunning and shrewd old Victor, Martina was extremely cautious in protecting herself. She never contacted the Duke directly; she always had the James Trading Company handle things. However, the James Trading Company had been destroyed by old Victor, leaving only Strootman. So, Martina had no choice but to hand over the communication channels with the Duke to Strootman.

Strootman isn't stupid. Yesterday, Martina told him not to come for the next few days and to be discreet, but he came today. What does that mean? It means that Strootman must have something very important to tell Martina, which is why he disobeyed Martina's orders and came to the Semedo Mansion!

As Strootman was knocking on the door, he suddenly felt the bronze door of the Semedo Mansion in front of him loosen. His refined and clean-cut face instantly lost its air of sophistication. He glanced warily behind him, and seeing that no one was paying attention to him, he quickly pushed open the door and went inside. Having received this message through the communication channels, he really didn't dare to waste a single moment. He immediately disobeyed Martina's orders and came to the Semedo Mansion to find Martina as soon as possible.

Just when Strootman thought he had concealed his movements, he never expected that, 500 meters behind him, in a dense pine forest, a figure was silently watching all his actions.

"Stromann, what happened?" Looking at the flustered Strootman in the secret room, Martina frowned slightly and asked him:

Strootman didn't answer Martina's question. In fact, he didn't have much to say. He simply took out a piece of paper covered with writing from his spatial ring and handed it to Martina.

Martina took the notebook from Strootman, glanced at the dense handwriting on it, and her expression instantly hardened as she stared intently at the notebook.

"Should I avoid it?" Strootman asked hesitantly when he saw Martina's gaze suddenly fixed on the notebook. He had already read the contents of the notebook after receiving it; it was nothing more than some poems and prose.

Strootman had been with the secret society for decades and knew all its rules for communication. He was well aware that the poems and prose on the notebooks were worthless; the real message was hidden beneath the poems and prose, in the mountain of notebooks.

Hearing Stromann's question, Martina snapped out of her reverie, hesitated for a moment, then shook her head at Stromann and said, "No need, you can just stand here!"

After speaking, Martina cast a spell on the notebook in her hand, and the notebook, filled with her writing, immediately emitted a pale blue light. Under the blue light emanating from the notebook, a faint, bitter smile appeared on Martina's cold and beautiful face.

The blue-glowing notebook paper in her hand is called Carrick Paper, a masterpiece by Carrick, an alchemist of the Royal School. This paper looks no different from ordinary notebook paper and can be written on with a regular pen. However, when writing on Carrick Paper with a pen, a special spell is used to conceal the contents beneath the pen marks. Without a special spell, no one will discover the hidden contents. Because of its exceptional concealment, the Royal School uses Carrick Paper to transmit confidential and important information.

In fact, the reason Martina saw the Carrick paper and stared at the worthless poems and prose on it wasn't because it was the first time she'd seen it. Martina had used Carrick paper countless times. The real reason she did this was because of her long-term contact with Connor Ferguson and the numerous times she'd used his secret methods to transmit messages. Seeing the Carrick paper filled with content, Martina subconsciously searched for patterns in the text…

Looking at the blue light on the Carrick Paper that had been burning for a minute and showed no signs of fading, Martina shook her head helplessly. The Carrick Paper was extremely effective at keeping information confidential. Without the spell to unlock it, even if you were a Level 2 official wizard, it would be impossible to unlock the Carrick Paper. Unfortunately, the Carrick Paper was too slow to unlock, taking a full three minutes.

Now, seeing the shortcomings of Carrick paper, Martina couldn't help but recall the advantages of Connor's coded communication method...
