Wizard Earl

"If it weren't for the concern that our family's cuisine might not suit the tastes of your Storm Church, I would have even wanted our family's chef to send some food to him and his men!" Connor said, shrugging.

Ignoring Connor's teasing, Christant continued, "Now that you know each other, work together to find that location. De Zelby and his men will be there to help!"

Connor, who had anticipated Christant's actions, wasn't surprised. He shrugged indifferently, ended his meeting with Christant, and stood up to walk towards the door. However, strangely, when he reached the door, Connor suddenly stopped without warning, turned his head slightly towards the wall, shook his head with a half-smile, and then walked out of the Killian Hotel as if no one else was there.

Having observed all of Connor's actions, Christant remained silent, sitting quietly as if waiting for someone to arrive. A minute later, a tall, slender young man in a light blue robe entered Christant's room from the next room. This man had sunken cheekbones, a fierce look in his eyes, and a long, thin scar on the left side of his face, making him look like a ruthless character.

At this moment, the young man made no attempt to conceal his true feelings before Christant, standing there with an expression full of anger.

"Milik, I told you before, even if Reyes had other reasons for choosing Connor Ferguson as his student, Connor Ferguson is definitely not simple. Hasn't the lesson from Van der Beck taught you anything, Milik?" Christant glanced at the young man before him and said with some disappointment:

Hearing Christant's lecture, the young man Christant called Milik visibly displeased, but perhaps considering the old man's status and position within the Church of Storms, he didn't refute it. After a few seconds of silence, he turned to Christant and asked, "Why did you let that old good-for-nothing Dezelby spy on Connor?"

Upon hearing Milik use such an insulting term as "old good-for-nothing" to refer to De Zelby, Christant frowned and said coldly, "Milik, if you continue to show such disrespect to your colleagues and seniors, I will petition Cardinal Hummels to revoke your right to participate in this operation and allow you to return to Church Headquarters early so that someone else can assist me!"

Christant's warning seemed to have a significant effect on Milik; he remained silent for a few seconds, then said to Christant, "Sorry!"

Since Milik had already shown weakness, Christant didn't press the issue further. After a moment's hesitation, he said, "I know you're frustrated that I had Dezellby monitor Connor Ferguson instead of having you do it."

"But I hope you, Milik, can use your brain. If I send you to spy on Connor Ferguson, are you going to complete the task I give you, or are you going to fight Connor Ferguson?"

"Director, I don't think there's any conflict. If I break a few bones of that damned, lowly dark wizard Connor Ferguson, he'll definitely serve the church better!" Milik looked up at Christant and said with great confidence.

Looking at the arrogant Milik before him, Christant's brows, which had just relaxed, furrowed again. He knew Milik's strength; he didn't know where Milik got the courage to be so confident that he could definitely defeat Connor Ferguson...

"Milik, Van de Beek is your good friend. You two must have already talked things over with Connor Ferguson, right?" Christant carefully chose his words before speaking to Milik.

"Yes, we already talked yesterday. Van der Beck has spoken to me about Connor Ferguson. He's a psychic wizard with powerful mental abilities and is skilled in mental attacks, that's true. But his greatest weakness is his physical body. If we meet, I won't give him any chance to use mental attacks. I'll use my magic to destroy him!" Milick clenched his fist and said excitedly.

Seeing Milik getting more and more excited, Christant couldn't help but pour cold water on him, shaking his head and saying, "You probably don't know this, but Connor Ferguson is not only a psychic wizard, but also an alchemist, possessing many powerful enchanted items. In addition, he has also mastered the Hades Dark Armor Technique!"

"According to our intelligence, Connor Ferguson is extremely powerful. The deaths of several first-level wizards are all intricately linked to him, and he's even the prime suspect in some of them. Don't even mention you, Milik; even I, facing him one-on-one, might not be a match for Connor Ferguson without using that treasure!" Looking at Milik, Christant said very solemnly.

As soon as Christant finished speaking, Milick opened his mouth somewhat indignantly, but due to Christant's status, he ultimately remained silent. Although he kept quiet, the words he wanted to say were clearly written on his face.

Seeing this, Christant pointed to the small green stone in the wooden box on the table and said to Milik, "Milik, take a good look. This is something Connor Ferguson crafted!"

Hearing Christant's words, Milik curiously examined the small green stone on the table, then picked it up and played with it for a while. However, he didn't have Christant's patience. After examining it a few times and finding no useful clues, he put the small green stone back into the wooden box and asked Christant with some disbelief, "Is he really an alchemist?"

"Milik, don't forget, Connor Ferguson's mentor, Professor Reyes of the Secret Society, is a great alchemist, and Connor is Reyes's only student. From the information we've obtained, although Reyes seems to have some unknown needs for Connor Ferguson, he's been quite generous to him, imparting many spells, arcane arts, and knowledge to Connor Ferguson!" Christant said solemnly to Milik.
