"What are you looking for from me?"
Although he had a premonition before, White Mask really couldn't understand why he was looking for him.
"It's not really a secret. I'm recruiting a team to participate in the Enzofar Continent Invitational Tournament. Mr. White Mask and Ms. Cat are both on my list."
The White Mask was even more confused, and asked in a low and hoarse voice:
"I only know one kind of magic, and my ranking is not high. Why me?"
Charles stood up and patted White Mask on the shoulder.
"Why can't it be you? You are an important fighting force in my eyes. One magic is enough."
Suddenly, White Mask was enveloped by an invisible and deadly pressure.
The instinctive fear of death and the feeling of powerlessness made his body tremble.
And Charles' voice rang in the ears of the White Mask.
"Our Mr. Mask won't go back on his word, right?"
After saying this, the invisible pressure disappeared.
Beads of sweat streamed down the white mask's cheeks, and he was breathing heavily as if he had survived the disaster.
The feeling of being locked in death is truly horrible.
"Ms. Cat and Mr. Mask, I'll be waiting for you at Charles Tavern in a week. Please don't keep me waiting too long."
"And the rest of you, have fun, and see you again. It's getting late, so I'll be leaving now."
Everyone was looking at Charles' back, as well as his two bodyguards, Wright and Ula. On the left, Wright was walking leisurely with his hands behind his head, while on the right, Ula was walking unsteadily with his saxophone in his arms. Charles in the middle was extremely steady, and every step he took was so resounding. With these three figures standing side by side, Charles's status suddenly improved.
The four-eyed cat pointed to where Charles was. "It seems that his chips have not been taken away yet."
Charles, who had not walked far, suddenly appeared in front of the card table and picked up the gold brick.
"Thank you Ms. Cat, otherwise I would have suffered a great loss."
Charles's previous arrogance is gone forever.
Everyone's mouth corners slightly raised.
Only when Charles left completely did he laugh out loud.
Wright heard laughter in the box.
"I couldn't help laughing, either."
Charles glanced at Wright, who had his mouth shut but couldn't help laughing.
"This kid, haha."
Charles couldn't help laughing.
The two men and the bear rushed back after leaving the tavern. The casino was connected to that place of bright lights, wine, and women, and the sounds of chirping and singing from the women were endless as they passed by. Eight out of ten passers-by were pulled in.
Wright and Charles were the only two people who didn't go in, and as for Ula, he wasn't considered a human.
Passing by the place where people were eaten.
Charles stopped in a dimly lit shop built between two rooms.
The gap was one and a half meters wide. After removing the shelf, there was only a path that a normal person could barely pass through. If you were a little fatter, you might have to lean sideways.
Sitting in front of the store was a very kind old lady, but her eyes were wrapped in a piece of cloth soaked with traces of time.
Apparently it is invisible.
"Charles, you're here so early."
Charles smiled slightly and said respectfully, "Well, good morning to you too, Grandma Wendy."
This grandma is extremely weak, so weak that she would break at the slightest touch.
It's hard to imagine that there would be such a person in a place like this.
This old man's status is not that important. He is just an ordinary resident who has lived here all his life.
She has existed since the City of Chaos was still a small border town, and is a living fossil that witnessed the city's creation from nothing.
And she was also respected by the people in Chaos City. No one in Chaos City would bully a 100-year-old woman who ran a fruit and vegetable store in a narrow gap, unless he was tired of living.
Wealth and glory were just a matter of words for her, but she didn't have it. Instead, she chose to use her savings to open a shop in the cracks.
Even though she can't be seen now, she still sits here silently.
For her, this is the life she wants, so she always smiles, and it is a smile from the heart.
She was already jet-lagged, so she told Charles in the middle of the night that she had arrived so early.
But her ears are very sharp and she can hear the subtle sounds from the outside world and the differences between them.
"Grandma Wendy, do you still have Gan Yue Guo and Xing Gua?"
"Yes, why not?"
"Today, I brought my friends here."
Grandma Wendy smiled kindly and greeted them.
"Come here, little guys. These are Labbe oranges. They are very fresh and delicious. You can just peel them. I won't charge you any money. You can try them."
Charles was a little helpless.
"Grandma Wendy, they don't understand what you are saying. They don't speak the same language."
"It's not easy for young people to work hard in a foreign country. I'll pick some fruits for the children. You can take them back to replenish their bodies."
"Okay." Charles accepted it happily.
This is different from taking advantage. For an old person of this age, every day she lives is a gain, and complying with her wishes is the best way to prolong her life.
Charles handed two Labbe oranges to Wright and Charles.
"Grandma Wendy gave it to you. Try it."
Wright and Ula took it over. Ula watched Wright peel the orange and then followed suit.
The old man couldn't see but was very sensitive to sounds and smells, and when he smelled the rich aroma of the rabe orange and the sounds of bursting juice and chewing, he smiled.
Charles walked into the store and started shopping on his own, interacting with the old man during the process.
"Grandma should be in good health recently."
"Well, thanks to that girl, she came to see me as soon as she had time. It's fine."
Charles wanted to laugh when he mentioned that girl.
Because that girl was Hekarabe.
Charles put the money into the money box and said goodbye to the old man.
"Grandma Wendy, we're leaving."
"Be careful on the road."
"understood."
Although Wright and Ula did not speak the same language, they still bowed politely.
It was already late at night when the two men and the bear returned to the tavern.
Chapter 90: This request is a bit unfair to you
However, there were unexpectedly two more people in the locked tavern.
One is Thor and the other is Tiffany.
There were two men and a bear, and they were a little surprised to see them.
Even at this time, he is still standing outside the door, which shows how persistent he is.
When Tiffany saw Ulla, her eyes, which had been a little sleepy, suddenly widened.
"Ulla, what a coincidence that we meet again."
Thor and Charles both looked at Tiffany with extremely subtle eyes.
I'm already at home waiting, and you still dare to say it's a coincidence.
What a coincidence.
Charles looked at Thor.
"How long have you two been waiting?"
"I just got here, but this elf lady seemed to have arrived very early. I saw that the elf lady hadn't left yet, so I decided to wait. Anyway, there was nowhere else to go."
Charles nodded.
"I see, the casino and that place are both quite interesting, aren't they? Why haven't I seen you go there before?"
Thor also explained why he didn't go to that kind of place.
"A long time ago, I witnessed a gambler selling his daughter, so I hate gambling. As for that place, to be honest, because of my relationship with my mother and sister, I am a little afraid of women."
"That's hard for you, come in. While everyone is here and I'm in a good mood, I'll mix you some good wine."
When it comes to good wine, Thor and Tiffany's eyes light up.
Originally, neither of them was a big drinker, but after drinking the wine mixed by Wright and Charles, they really didn't think about anything else.
Charles Tavern, in their eyes, is a place of real happiness.
The sour, sweet and strange taste enters the taste buds, and then the alcohol numbs the brain. The feeling of being completely empty is really wonderful.
As soon as everyone entered the tavern, something horrible happened the next second.
Wu La finally got relief from what he had endured for so long.
While Ula was released, it was everyone's eardrums that suffered.
Ula is extremely talented in playing the saxophone, and he would definitely be popular when he performs at funerals.
It fills the gap in the funeral industry, where there is only suona but no saxophone.
Now that's a problem. Wright doesn't speak the language to begin with, and now he has to rely on body movements to communicate.
The most outrageous one is Tiffany.
When the girl saw the Ula being played enthusiastically, she clapped and cheered. It was obvious that she really liked it.
To be honest, Wright really regretted getting this thing for Ula.
It's so scary.
But Wright couldn't stop it. He had already stopped it before, and Ula really gave him face by not blowing it.
If I had known, I would have just let it blow there.
I have to say that the three men are quite adaptable.
They can already drink to the magic sound of Ula, but some people may not be able to do so.
. . . . . . .
"Charles, can you please make this bear quiet down and stop playing that saxophone? The sound of this thing is more painful than my mother's death."
Charles wiped the wine glass as if nothing had happened.
The drinkers stared at Charles.
"Don't stare at me like that. Go shout at whoever is blowing the whistle. I can't stop him. Besides, some people enjoy hearing the noise you don't like."
The drunkard pursed his lips.
Who dares to touch Charles' bear?
But it sounds really bad.
Even the big bear, who is somewhat closely related on the genetic spectrum, can't stand it.
"Charles, think of a way to make him quiet down. If this continues, everyone will leave."
