Chapter 48

When Li Hao took off his mask, Shalia finally believed that this person was Li Hao. But she still sat on the sofa far away from her with caution.

"I want to know what the situation is like during this period?" Li Hao continued to ask.

After Shalia confirmed Li Hao's identity, she briefly explained the situation during this period. Only two things happened after things got back on track.

But Li Hao had already provided a solution, even anticipating the potential impact. It could be said that even in the worst-case scenario, Li Hao had a solution.

After learning that Li Hao came from another world, Shalia was depressed for a while. For people with faith like them, their own world is the center.

Fortunately, Li Hao didn't say too much. Now she had made up her mind and was only concerned about how much benefit Li Hao could bring her.

This commercial center is a gold mine. In Li Hao's plan, she has now successfully controlled all of Charleston's economy.

All the merchants who came here to trade made money, but they were the ones who made the most money. How did they achieve this completely win-win model?

She had been studying while Li Hao was away.

Now that Li Hao is back, she also wants to know what Li Hao's next plan is.

"...It's doing very well," Li Hao said. "Give me half of my profits."

After a brief conversation with Shalia, Li Hao put on his mask again. This business center was making a lot of money.

"I need the next plan. The plan you gave me has been fully implemented." Shalia did not answer, but asked instead.

"There's no rush now. We can consolidate our progress for now. Let me get to know the situation better." Li Hao disagreed. She was determined to use these things to gain control of this place. Only she knew how to develop it.

This was also due to her forming the team, gradually controlling and laying out plans, which gradually made Shalia and the others build blind trust in her.

Li Hao looked at Shalia and said with a smile, "By the way, you must have been tired recently. You should take a rest for a while."

Shalia frowned upon hearing this. She had imagined Li Hao would come up with the business plan and she would execute it. But why did Li Hao suddenly want to get involved in the management?

You have to know that Li Hao before was more like a hands-off boss, and Li Hao, Victoria, and Maggie were all focused on cultivation.

What exactly does she want to do?

What Li Hao wants to do is actually not that complicated. It just means to obtain all the knowledge of the mage.

Of course, she couldn't go through the normal channels, that is, go to the Mage Tower to obtain it. Because she was already a Level 2 Mage, you have to know that in the eyes of the Mage Tower, she was just a mage apprentice who had only been enrolled for a year.

Her terrifying cultivation speed is absolutely impossible in this world. If she is exposed, the third-level mage will definitely attack her.

The things in the magical world are too magical. Even the high technology of the doomsday world cannot guarantee that Li Hao will be 100% safe.

Of course, she was not unprepared. She was given a weapon in the doomsday world. Although the people at the base wanted to take it for research, Li Hao's safety was the most important thing.

As long as the weapon is used properly, dealing with a third-level mage is not a problem.

Li Hao took the 50,000 gold coins and put them into the ring with a wave of his hand. Then he left the place.

...

A second-level wizard has arrived in Charleston these days. She's a very skilled pharmacist and makes all kinds of potions.

Soon she attracted the local mage community.

"Your improved technology is really good." Michelle said as she looked at a crucible that Li Hao took out.

"With the help of this, I can save a lot of steps." Li Hao explained her tools. Of course, this crucible was brought to this world by her after the base was improved.

"I have an extra one, I'll give it to you." Li Hao handed it over generously.

"Thank you for your gift." Michelle had a better impression of the new potion master in front of her.

He is generous and has unique insights into potions. "By the way, there will be a gathering of potion masters in Charleston in a couple of days. Perry, you should come too. Everyone will share a lot of good things."

"It's my honor." Li Hao, whose pseudonym is Perry, nodded.

Now she had assimilated into her disguised identity and successfully became a talented potion master in her thirties, a wild mage who had just arrived in Charleston.

Wild mages are a very special group and usually have a heritage.

Generally, this is inherited from a family, while in some cases, a wizard discovers a child with potential and takes him in as an apprentice, passing on all his knowledge. In both cases, the orthodox wizards of the Wizard Tower call them wild wizards.

Mages who came from the orthodox Mage Tower had their own unique mark. Li Hao was actually from the Mage Tower, but at that time she was just a mage apprentice. Only when she became a formal mage would she be marked.

It can be said that Li Hao found a loophole and successfully confirmed her identity as a wild mage.

Li Hao said that her teacher was a potion master, but due to injuries and failure in his attempt to become a third-level wizard, he had died. She was now alone out there.

She had already made her way into Charleston's small wizard circle. After demonstrating her abilities as a second-level wizard, coupled with her exceptional potion-making skills, many people had expressed goodwill to her and extended olive branches.

Li Hao chose Michelle as the entry point. On the one hand, it was because the base had Michelle's detailed analysis, which could make their actions easier. On the other hand, Michelle had a very high status in the Mage Tower, which would help her plan.

Li Hao's goal was to successfully join the Mage Tower under the disguise of Lilith and obtain the knowledge of a third-level mage, or even higher.

With Michelle's recommendation, Li Hao attended a gathering of potion masters, where she deliberately demonstrated her creative potion-making techniques.

"Your method will be much more efficient." A potion master sighed as he looked at Li Hao's actions.

"But most people may not be able to reach Perry's level. Her mental control is too strong." The speaker was Li Hao's acquaintance, Harrison.

Harrison was here too. There were about thirty potion masters in this area, and less than ten at level two. So the community was quite small.

Li Hao's appearance made her the focus of the party. It is rare to see someone like Li Hao actively contribute her knowledge.

After all, knowledge is money. At this banquet, it is said to be an exchange, but it is more about bragging about one's achievements to each other and trading materials and resources.

It is rare to find someone like Li Hao who really shares his knowledge.

After the sharing session, Li Hao took the initiative to chat with Michelle alone.

"Last time I heard you say that you were in need of this bone bird grass when refining the Nether Spirit Potion. I happen to have one here." Li Hao said as he took out the herb.

"Thank you so much. How much gold coins did this cost? I'll give it to you." Michelle had been looking for this herb for a long time, but unfortunately, for some reason, this herb was not available.

"No need, we just happen to have some in stock." The reason why Michelle couldn't buy the herbs was naturally because of her order.

After taking the herbs, Michelle's favorability towards Li Hao increased sharply.

"Actually, you don't have to really talk about these things. They won't really share their knowledge." She reminded Li Hao.

Li Hao naturally knew about it, but she shared it not for anyone else but for Michelle to see.

Now the fish is hooked.

"I have no choice. You know I'm just a wild mage, and my teacher is only a second-level mage. Now I want to become a third-level mage..." Li Hao said in a helpless tone.

Michelle understood what the other party meant and quickly realized the intention of Perry's flattering behavior.

But as the person being flattered, she wouldn't say she had any ill feelings.

"How about this, I'll introduce you. As long as the three adults agree, you can become a member of our Mage Tower."

Michelle's words were exactly what Li Hao had been waiting for.

It would be much easier for a Level 2 Alchemist to join the Mage Tower. As long as he entered the Mage Tower, Li Hao could naturally exchange their knowledge and smoothly obtain the following content.

The only pity was that she could no longer be friends with Victoria under the identity of Li Hao. However, she did not forget her and sent her some gifts and letters.

The only one who knew her identity now was Shalia. Li Hao was not worried that Shalia would reveal her identity, because Shalia had already regarded the luminous object as her own.

Li Hao's business plans and his future splendid business empire were just a hanging fruit for her. And if Li Hao's affairs were exposed, they would naturally be traced back to this place. Then Sharia wouldn't be in any better shape.

Michelle said she would introduce Li Hao, and she did it quickly. Just two days later, Li Hao was taken to the Mage Tower to meet the third-level mage.

It turned out to be an acquaintance. Li Hao was a little nervous because she was worried that the other party could see through her disguise.

However, the base has also discussed this point. If Li Hao uses magic to disguise himself, he will definitely be exposed. On the contrary, the other party will not discover this kind of scientific and physical changes.

Maybe I didn't expect that there are magical things in the world besides magic.

After briefly asking about Li Hao's experience, they also tested her aptitude. To her own surprise, her aptitude had actually changed. Previously, Li Hao's aptitude was only considered above average, but this time, it was found to be superior.

They did not question Li Hao too much, but used magic to detect whether she had the mark of other wizard towers.

Just when Li Hao thought it was about to end, the third-level mage who liked to wear a mask and had been silent suddenly spoke up, calling Li Hao's alias.

"Perry."

Li Hao's body suddenly became unable to move, and she was so stiff that she could only sit there. Her mind felt dizzy, and she could only see the other person's golden eyes.

"What is your purpose in entering the Mage Tower?" The voices seemed to come from all directions.

But I spoke uncontrollably.

"To learn knowledge, to acquire all the knowledge of the mage."

"It seems that he is a very motivated person. Very good." He was obviously very satisfied with Li Hao's answer.

Only then did Li Hao come out of that special state. After that, things went very smoothly. After being branded with the special mark of the Mage Tower, Li Hao officially joined the Mage Tower as Perry.

As Li Hao walked out of the room with the card, she realized her back was covered in sweat. The mage's skills were superb, and the move she had just made was completely beyond their expectations.

She was really lucky, and luckily the question was about her purpose, not about herself.
