In the end, Charlie placed a weapon customization order at the cost of 5500 points, which lasted for three days, and had clear requirements for materials and quality, Charlie left a deposit of 2000 points and left the Banzan market.
He had to earn the remaining 3,500 points in three days, which was not difficult for a Demon Seal Carver, and even if he couldn't, he could still borrow points from the Blood Raven Bar, believing that with his credibility and value, it would be easy to borrow 3,500 points.
Before that, check the ideal to see the state of the old teammates, this time I believe that Erin has found a way.
Back at the bar, Charlie asks Hank, and sure enough, in his sifted out appointment letter, he finds Erin's letter.
Hank hesitated, "Mr. Richard, please forgive me for my short-sightedness, I really can't find anything special in this letter, please give me some pointers, so that next time I don't put such an important letter in the spam." β
Charlie smiled back, "She's a pretty girl, I know." β
Hank smiled knowingly, "I see, she'll be on the special list, and the Master won't miss a single word about her." β
"Thank you. β
When Charlie left the office, Hank shrugged his shoulders and said to himself, "Well! β
Half an hour later, Charlie left the bar and came to a corner of Twilighttown.
Qingtong, Qianxue, Davy and Erin have been waiting for a long time, and the three girls seem to be as usual, but David is the only one who carries a wine bottle and sits on the ground, drunk.
Charlie frowned slightly and asked, "How have you been doing in the last two weeks?"
A question was exchanged for a moment of silence.
Qing Tong looked at the others and replied, "I'm trying to take on some academy tasks, and Erin is assisting me, although the progress is slow, but I have basically found some direction." β
Erin looked at Qing Tong and added: "It's still not an even team, six people in a team work together, our team has three girls and one boy, all of them are mages, and if you go out of the city with this configuration, I'm afraid it's a big problem!"
Charlie, of course, understands the subtext of Erin, he has left the team and still influences some of the members' thinking, which in itself is unreasonable.
Charlie nodded and asked, "What about Qianxue?"
Qianxue bit her lip and glanced at him, and replied: "My family is trying to find a way to complete the goal of this free mission season and return to the academy as soon as possible by using some dishonorable means, my brother is also trying to pull me into their team as a trainee member, these two days, my grandmother and mother have been doing my work, I'm afraid I won't last long!"
Charlie said in a deep voice: "Don't insist on it senselessly, Qianxue, listen to your family's opinions, you can also loosen the squad, we can keep in touch in the future, and we are still trusted comrades-in-arms." β
In the squad, probably only Charlie can say that Chiyuki is a drag oil bottle, and it will not arouse her disgust.
Qianxue asked quietly, "What about you, and still don't plan to return?"
"I'll share my thoughts with you later. Charlie groaned, and then turned to look at David, "David, what about you?
There was silence for a long time.
"My family already knew about my brother's death and made representations to the college. David took a sip of wine and took a bitter taste, "The academy doesn't pay attention to it at all, I've been thinking about it for the past few days, we have gone through two mission seasons, so many apprentices at the level of the Golden Badge, so many sons of the Marquis Duke, so many talented geniuses, damn it."
My brother ...... It's not a special case, and my family doesn't expect any compensation, just hoping to get a decent explanation, but, not to mention the compensation plan, even the attitude of silent mourning is indebted, tsk! The Arcane Ring, the strongest magic academy in the mainland, is really arrogant and cold?! My father is angry!!"
It's a sad story.
Charlie muttered: "David, during this time, I believe you have some understanding of the coldness of the academy, but I have deeply experienced that students who have not been apprentices of the Iron Medal in the Arcane Ring will never be able to fully appreciate the confusion and despair of the uncertain future, nor can they appreciate the cruelty and ruthlessness of this magical world, if I keep feeling sorry for myself, what do you think I will be like now?!"
Face is earned by yourself, not given by others, since the academy neglects your family, then you should do something to make the academy value you and make your existence important!"
The third girl nodded silently.
David smiled bitterly: "Boss, I am different from you, you are a pearl, even if you are dusty for a while, as long as you seize an opportunity, you can shine, and I am far from being able to do this, even if I am given ten hundred chances, I can't grasp it." β
Charlie frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Have you forgotten your pride against Jacob? You have forgotten your promise to Mia?Your brother Colin suffered such a wound before he died, trapped Bratz, and left the hope of life to you, to our team, and you repay his sacrifice like this now?!"
At the mention of Colin, David stood up angrily and retorted, "No! I'm not afraid of death! If I have the opportunity to fight with Shadow Thorn, I will kill him at all costs!"
Charlie snorted and laughed, "Then do you know him? Do you know how to find him? Do you know his ability? Do you understand the gap between yourself and him? Do you know how to win him?!"
Charlie threw out a barrage of questions that left David speechless.
"I haven't figured out these questions, even if you are given a chance to face him, you can only be sent to death!" Charlie paused and said in a deep voice: "I fought him once in the group hunt last week. β
"Ahh
"How's it going?" asked Ayotomi.
David also expressed great concern.
"I attacked him and threw 13 fireballs at him, but unfortunately there was a deep pool in the spore glade, he got into the pool and survived, and at the moment of coming out of the water, I was shot in the shoulder with an arrow, and ate a complete arrow of holy light!
Qing Tong nodded and said: "His physique is a shadow, and he was hit by the element of restraint, and his injury should not be small!"
"Unfortunately, he was allowed to run away. β
David couldn't help but ask, "Boss, is he difficult to deal with, and if I run into him, is there a slight chance of winning?"
Charlie glanced at him, "This is the right attitude, no matter who you are against, you must know your opponent before you have a chance to win." For now, if you run into him, there is no chance of survival.
Last time I hunted in a group, if I hadn't taken advantage of his sneak attack on another team to launch a surprise attack, there would have been no chance of hurting him at all, his speed was too fast, almost eight times the speed of an ordinary adult, in other words, eight times that of a naked state mage!
In a one-on-one duel, I will lose to him without any suspense, or rather, in a one-on-one situation, based on his ability characteristics, it is difficult for any apprentice to take the lead in the battle against him, and once he is attacked first, as long as he is hit, with the characteristics of his dagger, it is almost a certain death!"
"What then?" asked everyone in unison.
Charlie sighed: "So, that's why I left the team, but you still can't understand me, and as far as I know, Shadow Thorn Bratz is just an opponent standing on the table, and the person who really wants my life has not been exposed for the time being." β
Qian Xue said with concern: "It turns out that Brother Charlie is in such a dangerous situation, we don't even know yet! Why don't I tell my brother? Let him help think of a way, after all, he also has some connections in the academy, and my family also has some influence in the academy." β
Charlie shook his head and refused, "Qianxue, I understand your intentions, but please don't do this, the purpose of my departure from the team is to hide my whereabouts, so as to hide the darkness against the darkness."
One person has the smallest target, so the last time I had the opportunity to ambush Brazz, if I involve your brother, it will be difficult for me to hide completely, but it is not so safe. β
Qingtong praised: "Yes, Charlie's thinking is very clear and effective, let's not mess with him, it's best to keep a distance from him." β
Charlie glanced at everyone, "To be honest, I'm a little disappointed with your performance in the past two weeks, especially David, as the only boy in the squad, you actually let the girls be busy outside, escaping reality by themselves, drunk and dreaming of death, and no responsibility!"
Hearing this, David's face turned red, and he didn't know whether it was because of the strength of the wine or the shame, and the wine bottle was also thrown aside by him.
Qingtong looked at Charlie and said with a smile: "So, do our former opponents have any good suggestions?"
Charlie looked at her clear cyan pupils and knew that she already had a draft in mind, but she had borrowed Charlie's mouth because of her high reputation among the team members.
Charlie muttered, "Based on the current reality, I can't come back, even if I don't have the current predicament, I don't plan to come back. Because, for friends who have made friends, it doesn't matter if there is that soul link or not, will you not believe me because you don't have this soul link?"
The crowd shook their heads.
"There are many benefits to me being independent, the biggest meaning is to avoid risks for you, reduce the size of my goals for myself, and we can always have opportunities to work together.
In addition to that, the other key point is that maybe I'm leaving the squad, and that's a good thing for each of you. β
Qing Tong smiled dumbly, looking at her appearance, she knew that she understood all the connotations of Charlie's words.
In order to prove that he is not an outsider, David said: "Then we have to expand the other members, especially unfortunately the action is a little late, the strong apprentices have already formed a team, and the rest are a bunch of rookies!"
"Not necessarily the rest of the apprentices are weak, and they have to find a way to poach people, and many captains are doing this. I can help with the free enchantment service, great scroll discounts, etc., which are all attractive strategies. β
