Wizard Earl

Chapter 759 Nighttime Visit to Ferguson's Mansion (5)

Connor's heart skipped a beat, and the already very sleepy maid immediately fell into a temporary slumber. Without the maid's disturbance, Connor appeared at old Ferguson's bedside. Looking at the old man lying on the bed who looked very much like himself, Connor's feelings became very complicated. After a minute of silence, Connor gently placed his hand on old Ferguson's head.

Connor's purpose in sneaking into Ferguson's mansion this night was not only to set up surveillance equipment and search for undercover agents, but also to check on the health of the late Ferguson family.

Connor's magic meticulously examined every inch of old Ferguson's flesh and blood. Simultaneously, the auxiliary chip in Connor's mind rapidly processed the information transmitted by his magic regarding old Ferguson's physical condition. Three minutes later, having completed a thorough examination of old Ferguson's body, Connor removed his hand from his head. Although his face remained expressionless and calm, a hint of doubt inevitably surfaced in his heart…

Regarding Sir Alex Ferguson's physical condition, the assistive chip is still being analyzed and no conclusion has been reached. However, based on Connor's own experience, Sir Alex Ferguson's physical condition is indeed very serious. His lungs and liver have already shown obvious lesions, and he is basically in a hopeless situation. It won't be long before Sir Alex Ferguson dies.

As for Connor's doubts, they weren't about Ferguson's current health condition. Several years ago, when Martinez, the head butler, came to Loen to see him, he had already subtly reminded him that Ferguson's health was very poor. So, upon returning to Frosinone, Connor was already prepared for Ferguson's condition. What truly puzzled him now was not Ferguson's health, but the reason why Ferguson was now in such a critical condition.

Based on my magical examination of Ferguson's body, the reason why Ferguson is in this state is not hard to find. Ferguson indulged in sensual pleasures for decades, indulging in debauchery, smoking, drinking, and a life without restraint. This caused Ferguson, a great knight whose vitality was far more vigorous than that of ordinary people, to exhaust himself and deplete the last bit of energy in his body.

Even so, for some reason, Connor always felt that Ferguson's current physical condition wasn't simply due to his indulgence in sensual pleasures...

Although Connor currently has no evidence within Ferguson's body to corroborate his feelings, these sensations are undeniably clear. As a psychic wizard, Connor's keen intuition made his senses exceptionally accurate during his apprenticeship. Now, having broken through to become a first-level wizard, the qualitative leap in his mental power has further sharpened his intuition. While this sometimes leads to him being influenced by mystical whispers during his cultivation, it has also made his premonitions even more accurate than before!

What puzzled Connor even more was the reaction of the assistive chip in his mind. If the reason why old Ferguson was terminally ill was really as simple as indulging in sensual pleasures and not knowing how to control himself, something that he could see at a glance, the assistive chip should not have been delayed until now without any results!

After waiting for about a minute longer without receiving the analysis results from the auxiliary chip, Connor's patience wore thin. He mentally asked the chip, "How much longer will it take to complete the analysis report on Old Ferguson's physical condition?"

"Beep! The auxiliary chip is combining data from the database to further analyze the cause of Ferguson's physical condition. It is estimated that the analysis report will take another five minutes!" The familiar, cool female voice from the auxiliary chip rang in Connor's mind the second he asked the question.

Hearing the answer from the auxiliary chip, Connor's doubts deepened, but he also became very eager to hear the report the auxiliary chip had given him in five minutes. Based on his understanding of the auxiliary chip, the things it had analyzed over such a long time must be extraordinary!

Because he had other work to do, Connor didn't waste the five minutes he was waiting for the auxiliary chip analysis report. He started to examine the villa where he remembered living as a child. When Connor pushed open the door to the second room on the left on the second floor of the villa, the room where he remembered living as a child, he was immediately stunned.

Although ten years had passed, his room was kept impeccably clean. Most importantly, everything in the room was exactly the same as it had been ten years ago when he angrily left Frosinone after leaving Connor Ferguson—not a single detail had changed…

His gaze swept over the familiar furnishings in the room, and Connor was once again overwhelmed with complex emotions. A few seconds later, he shook his head slightly, closed the door, and let out a sigh.

With ten seconds remaining before the auxiliary chip could provide Ferguson's health analysis report, Connor finished his inspection of the villa. Aside from discovering a few secret mechanisms designed by the Ferguson family themselves, Connor found nothing of value. After installing his surveillance equipment in a corner of the villa, he returned to Ferguson's bedside and silently looked at his blood relative lying on the bed.

"Beep! Mission complete. Based on data analysis from the database, the primary cause of Sir Alex Ferguson's current health condition is cigarettes (approximately 31%), alcohol (approximately 27%), frequent sexual intercourse (approximately 32%), and an unknown factor (approximately 10%)!"

"Unknown factors?"

Upon hearing that the unknown factor accounted for as much as 10% of the cause of Ferguson's physical condition, Connor's eyes narrowed immediately, a glint of light flashing in them. Although he didn't know what this unknown factor was, it seemed that his premonition had been proven right once again. Ferguson's current physical condition was indeed not as simple as it appeared, which was just a matter of indulging in sensual pleasures!

After a moment's thought, Connor again asked the auxiliary chip in his mind, "Have we found any clues about the unknown factors causing Ferguson's physical condition?"
