Wizard Earl

Varga, having finished her physical examination of old Ferguson, frowned, seemingly facing a very difficult situation. Hearing Connor's question, she stopped thinking, retrieved a vial of potion from her spatial ring, handed it to Connor, and instructed him, "Connor, give him two-thirds of this potion to drink, and apply the remaining third evenly to his heart and the area between his eyebrows!"

Although he didn't know why Varga had asked him to do this, Connor, trusting Varga, obediently carried out her instructions. Meanwhile, Varga frowned again, lost in thought.

Three minutes later, Connor, who had completed Varga's request, was surprised to find that although old Ferguson was still sickly, his complexion had clearly improved after Varga's potion.

"Valga, what kind of potion is this? It's so amazing!" After observing old Ferguson's condition again and confirming that his observation was correct, Connor, feeling pleasantly surprised, immediately asked Varga:

Varga glanced at old Ferguson, seemingly having anticipated his improved complexion. She simply nodded slightly, then softly said to Connor, "Connor, your father's condition should stabilize within a week. Let's go back first. I'm still a bit unclear about his current state; I need to go back and think about it carefully, and perhaps conduct some research!"

Hearing Varga say she was also "a little confused," Connor's heart sank, a slight disappointment creeping in. While somewhat disappointed by the result, Connor knew that although Varga's medical expertise was high, she wasn't a god. He had examined Old Ferguson's health, and it was not only very bad, but the cause of his illness didn't seem as simple as excessive indulgence in sensual pleasures and overexertion…

So even if Varga is only saying "somewhat confused" now, it's perfectly normal for her to "completely lose control" in the end; it's just Ferguson's fate!

"Okay!" Connor gently squeezed Varga's soft, boneless hand and nodded with a smile.

Just like when they arrived, Connor and Varga left Ferguson's mansion quietly, without disturbing anyone. After returning to the safe house in the suburbs, Varga, whose mind was still on old Ferguson's illness, greeted Connor and went to her room to begin her research alone.

After pondering for a while in his room, Connor made a decision. As the saying goes, there's no time like the present. He happened to be free now, and it was late at night, so he could take advantage of the darkness to go to Ferguson Manor outside the city!

After inspecting Ferguson Mansion, Connor originally planned to continue inspecting Ferguson Estate. However, despite his good intentions, things didn't go as planned. Isabella interfered, and the family's mole was also involved in the investigation. As a result, Connor has not been able to go yet.

Execution has always been Connor's strength. Once he made up his mind, he didn't hesitate. He left a message for Varga in the room, then put on his black robe, walked out of the room, and disappeared into the dark night of Frosinone.

Half an hour later, Connor appeared on an unnamed peak in the Camille Mountains outside Frosinone. Looking at the Ferguson Manor at the foot of the mountain, which looked like a prehistoric monster in the dead of night, a complex expression appeared in Connor's eyes.

After a brief silence, Connor's black robes fluttered slightly, and when he reappeared, he was already in an attic in a corner of Ferguson Manor.

The crystal ball that old Victor gave him contained a message from Reyes that mentioned that after Connor broke through to become a first-level wizard, he could come to the Ferguson family's old mansion, where Reyes, as his mentor, would give Connor a congratulatory gift for his breakthrough.

The Ferguson family has only two old residences in Frosinone: one is the Ferguson Mansion in the city, and the other is the Ferguson Estate. Connor has already checked the Ferguson Mansion and found no trace of the "gift," so it is highly likely that Reyes' "gift" is hidden in the Ferguson Estate. One of the reasons Connor came to the Ferguson Estate today is to see what Reyes' "gift" is!

After a moment's thought, Connor decided against unleashing his mental power to examine the entire Ferguson Manor. Reyes's message in the crystal ball mentioned that a highly dangerous set of restrictive mechanisms had been placed around the "gift." Only by breaking through these mechanisms could Connor obtain the "gift" Reyes had given him. According to the description in the crystal ball, this set of restrictive mechanisms was also a small test by Reyes, as his mentor, of Connor's strength as he broke through to become a first-level wizard…

Although he didn't know what kind of restrictive mechanisms Reyes had set up around the "gift" or how powerful they were, Connor felt that since Reyes was using the "Abyss Secret Technique" to manipulate him, these restrictive mechanisms might be related to mental power!

Given Reyes's characteristic of setting up traps and restrictions, if Connor releases his mental energy to probe Ferguson Manor, he might trigger these traps and restrictions ahead of time!

Thinking of this, Connor couldn't help but turn his head to look at the four-story tower, ten meters high, in the center of Ferguson Manor. That was the family library of Ferguson Manor, where all the books and secrets collected by the Ferguson family throughout the ages, including the family knight breathing technique, were kept!

Although the Ferguson family originally started at Ferguson Manor, the core members of the family moved to Ferguson Mansion in Frosinone City as the family grew. Meanwhile, the branches of the family that remained at Ferguson Manor multiplied and their numbers increased. The original Ferguson Manor could no longer meet the needs of these people, so the old buildings in the manor were demolished and a lot of land was acquired in the surrounding area to rebuild Ferguson Manor.

Although Ferguson Manor is vast, with dozens or even hundreds of buildings, the only one that can truly be called the "old manor" is the family library located in the very center of the manor! Therefore, the "gift" Reyes gave himself and the set of mechanical restrictions are very likely hidden in the library.
