Away from the trade guild, the charr is still angry.

The more he thought about it, the more strange he felt, it was clearly a big business sent to the door, if it was a serious businessman, how enthusiastic he would be to show sincerity, who knew that the bald businessman would give him a bad attitude at the beginning, and he said that the offer was a lion's big mouth, and he made it clear that he didn't want to negotiate this business.

10 silver coins and a stone, the city is built just a ring of walls, without hundreds of thousands of millions of large bricks and stones, of course, Charles has not asked the experts of the architectural guild to help design and calculate, and would rather buy more than shortage.

"It seems that we can only 'use local materials'."

Charles sighed deeply.

Stones, logs, and other reinforcement building materials cost at least hundreds of thousands of gold coins.

If you want to open your own quarry, then you need to buy a batch of slaves. Fortunately, from the 'Moon Sea Highway' through Comanso, you can quickly cross Tifanton and reach the rocks, if you buy slaves in Mystrono, you don't have to worry about the long distance, and a large number of slaves will die of illness or abscond in the process of transporting slaves.

Slave quarters were often in the lowest part of the city, adjacent to slums and tenants.

Holding a small, soft, white hand in each hand, Charles led Thea and Leila through the ruined streets.

The blocks are flanked by low, old, patched houses, rats and cockroaches are everywhere in the sewer entrances and exits, there are few elves on the streets, and most of the passers-by are yellow-skinned humans, half-orcs, and half-elves.

A faint groaning came from a dark alley, and Charles glanced inside, and saw a ragtag beggar lying on the ground. He seems to have contracted some kind of disease. Exposed skin crawls up a layer of blisters. The foul smell is clear and audible. Passers-by hurriedly walked by with their noses covered.

"He's parasitized by a virus."

"Fortunately, this virus will not be infected, otherwise everyone in this urban area will suffer."

Thea, the god of decay and depravity, still has a mischievous smile on her face in the view of the lower blocks. She had escaped for a time in the bottomless abyss, where the survival of the fittest was far more cruel than the main material world, which was a human purgatory for the creatures of the earth. Therefore, the ruins of the slums of the elven city could not shake her spirit.

Leila also ignored it.

As for the Charles, the [Absolute Neutrality] camp, believes in the god of knowledge, and the teachings only bind him to protect knowledge. It is not like Tyre and Yilmat, who are forced to help the needy.

He listened to Leila's soft, soft voice as he walked.

"Just now at the Trade Guild, the merchant had a problem with his faith. He is not a believer in Woking, the goddess of wealth, and bears the mark of an evil deity......"

Lyra said this, gently raising her face, glancing at the guardian whose eyes had changed dramatically, and continued to whisper, "I can feel his struggle. The merchant wanted to negotiate the deal, but there were other forces behind him that were stopping him. ”

"Lyra, you're always secretive, wouldn't it be nice to just say that the big fat man is a disciple of Bane?" Thea scoffed.

"Believers in Bane?"

Charles's face sank.

It seems that the establishment of a territory may not be hidden from the Bane Church. Although he is the appointed guardian of the gods. But the blatant can't, and the Bane church can use covert means. For example, this time to prevent him from buying stones, an invisible hand of darkness, I am afraid that at this moment I am in the fog of Strono, always watching his every move.

Charles never doubted the power of the Bane Church.

On this continent, among the two power organizations of Juzun, the Bann Church occupies one, and that organization is called the Santarin Society, the sworn enemy of the Harpists Alliance, which controls a huge commercial network, and if it is sincere in targeting Charles and Nordahir, I am afraid that the territory construction plan will encounter unprecedented difficulties.

With a heavy heart, Charles takes Thea and Leila to the slave quarters.

The slave market in Mystrono New Town is small, and the elves do not welcome dirty slaves and evil slave owners, which is completely incompatible with the art and aesthetics pursued by the elves. However, for the revival of the city, the elven lord of Mistron still acquiesced to the existence of the slave market with the greatest tolerance, and did not send people to encircle and ban it.

Slave carts were parked in the wide streets, or iron prisons were built in the corners, filled with unclothed slaves of all races.

On the mainland, the source of slaves is complex, some slaves are criminals, and some are prisoners of war from enemy countries, but in general, the price of slaves of humans, dwarves and other races is much higher than that of slaves of humanoid races such as goblins and kobolds.

Charles doesn't have obsessive-compulsive disorder, as long as slaves can work anyway, the quarry needs a group of hard-working, more docile slaves, the kind of slave trainers who have been whipped and trained are the best.

However, as soon as he entered the slave quarter, Charles realized that the atmosphere was not quite right.

The slave trader ignored him, and he even tentatively stood in front of a slave owner, but the natives just glanced at him evasively, and immediately took him for air, wiping the blade of his knife himself.

Thinking suddenly of the words of Layla and Thea, Charles immediately understood, and was so angry that he secretly gritted his teeth.

Bane.

Bane.

It's Bane again.

Before Ciric, who hated him the most, had not yet jumped out, Bane followed Talos, the Lord of the Storm, and began to order the mortal church to target him.

This is Comanso, just across the river from the headquarters of the Santarin Society.

The dark intelligence network of the Santarin Society has long infiltrated the Comanso Forest, extending all the way to Waterdeep City in Sword Bay, and a strong conflict broke out with the Kelburn Black Staff and Leila Silver Hand of Waterdeep City.

At present, the Santarin Society has firmly controlled the Moon Sea area, and the Komanso Forest adjacent to the Moon Sea is undoubtedly the hardest hit area. After thinking about this, Charles immediately stopped doubting, if it was the Santarin Society, it would be very easy to target him in commerce, if it weren't for the fear of his 'guardian' status and the two little goddesses, at this moment Charles felt that he should be assassinated endlessly until he died.

"Let's go." Charles sighed darkly.

Santarim would have two primary interests, control of trade and world domination.

If the people of the Tallinn Society wanted to stop him in trade, there was really nothing the Charles could do.

The phantom goddess Leila tugged at his arm at this moment, pointed to an apartment building around the corner in front of her, and said, "I think there are slaves you are interested in." ”

Through these days of getting along, Charles can be considered to have a rough understanding of Leila's temperament, this is a goddess who never wastes her efforts, does not talk nonsense, does not do superfluous things, everything must be done under the premise of saving energy, in other words, laziness.

She knew the hostility of the Bann church, but she pointed out the building, which meant that there were indeed good slaves hidden inside, worthy of her guardians.

"Let's go!" Charles muttered. (To be continued.) )
