Limited by the concentration of the ink and the number of elven holy patterns, there has been no breakthrough in the magic pattern construction, but there has been some creation in self-made equipment, the power gauntlet is an example, this is a gadget made by two little gnomes Gagarin and Karomi, in terms of some small ideas, the gnomes have a natural advantage, and have a strong interest.

Of course, there is no unique innovation in the Power Gauntlet, compared to the elegance of Charlie's invention of the magic pattern construction style, they just changed their thinking to the hand armor, and the craftsmanship is still so rough, but this at least proves that the two little gnomes can keep up with the rhythm of Charlie's thinking.

In contrast, Archmage Ron, who had high hopes from Charlie, who had listened to many one-on-one lessons, seemed a little old and sluggish.

Tonight, there is a large slave trade at the Oak Market, and in recognition of the invention of the Gauntlet of Strength, Charlie decides to bring Gagarin and Carromi.

During the reign of Archduke Thomas, he advocated the subjugation of the citizens with his personal charm and influenced the city by spiritual worship, so he strictly restrained himself and tried his best to maintain a glorious and righteous image, invisibly putting many shackles on himself, and taking into account the feelings of the public in his speech and behavior in public.

Charlie is different, after he gained a new soul, Charlie was rarely exposed to the public, many people have not even seen Charlie who has been rejuvenated from the inside out, and when he took over the position of lord of the family, Charlie completely hid himself behind the scenes, he pushed Haynes's administrative team to a more dazzling foreground, and let Mayor Ashley Young assume a lot of the role of Archduke Thomas, so that it is rumored that Mayor Ashley Young tried to oppose the guest, hijack public opinion, and force the Pavel family to give up more power.

This is a clumsy discord that Charlie simply ignores, and he deliberately hides that he has some considerations: on the one hand, because he has a bad image in the past and is really overwhelmed, and on the other hand, he hides his personality and intentions, so that he can maintain a sense of mystery and distance, so that opponents cannot find out his temperament and his weaknesses.

So, one of the benefits of these strategies is that Charlie can appear in public at will without fear of being recognized.

"Master, do you want Mr. Costa to come with you?" Brian handed Charlie a crimson gown and carefully tended the breasts on his coat.

"Take him, wouldn't that tell everyone that I'm Charlie?"

"Then take Stonefield, he has been stationed in the jade mines all year round, and few people know him. Brian still didn't give up.

Charlie smiled and said, "Uncle Brian, do you think that I am not as strong as him?

Brian argued: "Then why did you take Gagarin and Carromi?"

Gagarin, who was on the side, pricked up his ears, and when he heard this, he got up from his chair and said, "Mr. Brian, you see that we have been working for so long, and occasionally going out to breathe and see some new things is also conducive to bursting out more inspiration in creation, isn't it?"

"Yes! For those of us who are small, we need to look at the big world!"

Gagarin exaggeratedly spread his arms and said, "Mr. Brian, you should know that for a demonic seal carver like us, every minute and second is precious, and in a popular phrase, time is money, my friend.

The boss promised us some assistants, especially some smart assistants, and I recommended to him the beautiful girls from Morrigan, the land of gnomes, who are quick thinkers, energetic, and our best assistants! Assistants can do a lot of things, they can make us focus on thinking, and we can improve our scientific and technological output! We are very supportive of the boss's decision!"

Caromi continued: "Since we are choosing an assistant, of course we need to take a look, and the first glance is very important!"

Charlie coldly interrupted the two gnomes' conjectures and said, "I never promised to choose a dwarf girl as an assistant for you!"

Gagarin and Kalomi wilted.

Charlie still gave an explanation to Brian's question, he said: "Uncle Brian, I just want to see the real Oak Market, not the market they showed me, and see what those people are doing in it, just go buy a few slaves, and nothing will happen." ”

Seeing that Charlie had made up his mind, Brian sighed and said, "I asked Mr. Costa to ambush outside the Oak Market, and if anything happens, the young master will set off a magic firework." ”

Charlie nodded, and he didn't disagree with the old butler's intentions.

Don't blame Brian for being cautious, in Hayness, the Oak Market is a very special place.

First of all, its geographical location is very special, it is located in the heart of the old city, it is the intersection of the surface world and the underground world, and it is a mixed group of people, and the population is moving quickly and is difficult to manage.

Secondly, it does not conform to the free and fair positioning of Haynes, or rather, its existence casts a layer of dirt on the pearl city of Haynes, Mayor Ashley Young has proposed more than once to ban this illegal market, but it contributes nearly 80 million gold coins to the Pavel family every year in dividends, so that those in power cannot make up their minds, even the righteous Archduke Thomas is not exempt.

Third, Oak Market does not belong to the city of Haynes or to the Pavel family, although the Pavel family owns nearly 30% of its shares, but it is only a dividend share, and it cannot participate in the day-to-day operation of the market, and it has no voting rights.

Charlie took the VIP card of the Oak Market, walked through the special passage, and entered the Oak Market, and the two gnomes behind him attracted a lot of curious eyes, but they did not look particularly dazzling in the VIP corridor, the preferences of the rich are relatively unique, some with an elf woman wearing a light veil swaggering through the market, and some with a lion with a pedal on his head.

The VIP card is also divided into levels, Charlie's hand is an entry-level card, and the same level of VIP into a semi-open room that can accommodate more than 20 people, the room is quite spacious, a table is separated, there is a large interval in the middle, and the more senior VIPs can have an independent private room, and the view is also the widest.

Because Charlie entered late, there was only an empty table in the corner, Charlie sat down casually, looked left and right at the layout of the private room, the private room has walls on three sides, only one side facing the stage is empty, the view is not bad, and it can be distinguished from the ordinary audience in the hall.

"Karomie, did the boss tell you to sit?" Gagarin pinched his throat and said in a low voice: "I see that you don't realize it at all, the boss sits here, we only have to stand, you still dare to sit?!"

Karomi glared at him and whispered, "Sycophant!

"You're stupid! You're slow!" the two little dwarfs saw as they were about to quarrel.

"Shut up! sit down for me, don't talk!" Charlie let out a low snort before the two of them stopped, but they were fighting under the table with their feet, but fortunately they didn't dare to move too obviously because they were afraid of Charlie.

Charlie walked around the world, and found an acquaintance, the young master of the Stoke family, Rogers, Charlie's former best friend, the Stoke family is the ore agent of the Pavel family, and the output of the jade mine is mostly digested by his family, and now it seems that he approached Charlie without some political factors.

The two are notoriously bad in Haynes, Charlie bullied men and women at the beginning, he was the most loyal thug, however, this guy is still righteous, when Charlie lost power and was driven to Fort William, he also wrote a letter to Charlie, Brian handed the letter to him, but at that time Charlie was not in the mood to open and look at him.

Charlie's gaze immediately attracted Rogers' attention, he saw Charlie for the first time, the whole person was stunned, it was obvious that he saw something, but when he saw Charlie's indifferent gaze, he began to doubt his intuition at first sight, and deliberately glanced at Charlie twice, but found that Charlie had already looked away, as if his gaze had passed over him.

Rogers was stunned, and finally walked over as if he had made a decision, with a long-lost smile on his face, and said, "Friend, there is no one in this position, right? ”

"Yes!" Charlie casually beckoned to him.

No matter how much a person's external changes are, his living habits, some of his small body movements, will never change, or at least, will not change completely.

Rogers was good at this aspect of observation, so he tested Charlie's reaction, but the feedback he received felt very strange to him, although the young man in front of him was a little similar to his old friend Charlie, but his demeanor and temperament were very different, and it was obvious that he was not the same person.
