Wizard Earl

Chapter 754 Intelligence

"Of course! How did the professors of the Secret Society acquire their illustrious reputation?"

"It's all because Reyes used Soul Shackles to kill three wizards of the same rank back then. I was there during the great battle between our secret society and the Dark Tower, the battle between Reyes and Degea, a second-level wizard from the Dark Tower. I witnessed it firsthand. Degea, who had fought Reyes to a standstill for a long time, was instantly bound by Reyes's Soul Shackles, unable to cast any spells. Finally, Reyes pierced Degea's heart with the Spear of Evil Spirits and killed him!" Adolf said in a deep voice.

Adolf paused here, glanced at Isabella in front of him, hesitated for a moment, and then continued, "The reason why the Lord has stood by and watched Reyes and Conte collude for so many years, dominating the organization and disobeying the Lord's orders, is also because he fears Reyes's Soul Shackles technique!"

Hearing Adolf's words, Isabella frowned and fell silent. After a few seconds, she continued, "Professor Adolf, if the Soul Shackles are really that strong, then does that mean I really have no way to deal with that damned Connor Ferguson?"

"Miss Isabella, you don't need to worry about that. Although the Soul Shackles are strong, they are not invincible. As far as I know, the Soul Shackles consume a lot of mana. I saw it with my own eyes. After Reyes killed De Gea, his face turned pale, and his mana fluctuations were extremely unstable. He didn't dare to stay on the battlefield for even a minute longer and immediately left the battlefield to recover his mana!"

"Moreover, a spell as powerful as Soul Shackles wasn't designed for Level One wizards. A Level One wizard casting it is merely forcing it through, risking the side effects. Therefore, for Connor Ferguson right now, casting Soul Shackles would have extremely severe side effects. Unless it's a matter of life and death, I doubt he would dare to cast it lightly!" Adolf comforted Isabella.

After hearing Adolf's words of comfort, Isabella's expression softened. She chatted with the gray-robed elder Adolf for a few more minutes before leaving the secret room and arriving at a wooden cabin in the center of Corecia Manor. Looking at the small, peaceful cabin so close by, she seemed to sense something, a fleeting look of disdain flashing in her eyes, but she still pushed open the door and went inside.

"Mr. Robelli, hasn't anyone told you that barging into a woman's room without permission is a bad habit?" Isabella said coldly, looking at the plump, bespectacled old man sitting comfortably on her sofa.

If Connor were here right now, looking at the fat old man sitting in Isabella's residence, he would be very surprised to recognize that this person was Robelli, the optician manager who met with him at Arshavin's Eyes!

Hearing Isabella's question, Robelli adjusted his black-rimmed glasses and said somewhat innocently, "Miss Isabella, is that so? I originally obtained some very important information and was eager to hand it over to you, but it seems I made a mistake. I'll leave now. Sorry to have disturbed you, Miss Isabella!"

After saying that, Robbie stood up, making a move to walk towards the door of the cabin. However, he had only taken three steps when Isabella behind him spoke up, "What important information?"

Upon hearing Isabella speak, the portly old man Robelli, whose back was to her, revealed a smug smile on his chubby face. However, he still said somewhat casually, "It's nothing, just some news about the professor's spies in Frosinone. I imagine you're too busy, Miss Isabella, to be interested in my information. I'll leave now so as not to disturb you any longer!"

After saying that, Robbie quickened his pace, taking two steps towards the cabin door. At that moment, Isabella turned around completely, looking at Robbie with icy, emotionless eyes, and said, "Robbie, do you know what you're doing?"

Sensing the undisguised threat in Isabella's words, a sharp glint flashed in Robelli's small eyes. He said nothing, but simply pulled a crumpled pack of Frosinone's best-selling Rehhagel Pie cigarettes from his jacket pocket. He then skillfully pulled out a cigarette, put it in his mouth, and lit it with a bright orange flame on his thick fingers. He then took a deep, enjoyable drag.

Savoring the pleasant sensation from the cigarette, Robelli turned to face Isabella and said calmly, "Of course I know what I'm doing, and I'm capable of taking responsibility for anything I do! But I want to remind Miss Isabella, do you know what you're doing? Are you capable of taking responsibility for what you're doing?"

At this point, Robelli, his plump face revealing a contemptuous smile, continued, "And most importantly, Miss Isabella, although I don't know your identity, I think you'll understand by then that this is Frosinone, not the capital Bernabéu, and I'm not a member of your secret society. I'm just an information broker, taking the benefits from your society and accepting your employment. I don't need to be as polite to you as that guy Adolf was!"

Although he spoke with great bravado, Robbie's actions betrayed his true intentions. After speaking, he took out a brown paper bag from the spatial ring on his hand, casually threw it on the ground, and then turned around and left Isabella's cabin with a very dashing air.

Watching Robelli's massive figure disappear from her sight, Isabella's beautiful eyes flashed with undisguised killing intent. If it weren't for this information broker, whose extensive connections in the northern border regions near the Odin Empire, including Frosinone City, could have provided the Secret Society with significant assistance, Isabella would have had Adolf kill him based on his few words just now.

After silently repeating "the bigger picture is more important" twice, Isabella barely managed to suppress her anger. With a flick of her wrist, she picked up the brown paper bag Robbie had left on the ground, pulled out the documents inside, and a clear look of surprise appeared in her eyes as she looked at the contents…
