Chapter 65
Li Hao looked at Maggie. Because of Li Hao's previous precautions, Maggie did not cause any problems to her.
"At that time, I gave you a chance. Just tell me what you want to ask." Li Hao looked straight at Maggie.
"I don't want to answer. I need you to do me a favor." Maggie's eyes were filled with hatred and resentment. What had happened to cause such a drastic change in her? "I know you're capable, and I know you must be hiding some secret and have a powerful background. You can definitely do what I want."
"You can first tell me what you want me to do." Li Hao was quite interested in this exchange. The fewer people in this world who knew about her time travel, the better. Shariya would be enough.
If Maggie knew about this, it might cause trouble.
Although Li Hao certainly didn't care about this matter at that time, there was still Victoria. If she was exposed, Victoria might be in danger.
After hearing Maggie's story, she understood why Maggie had changed so much. She was originally a noble of very high status, a big shot that no one dared to mess with in Charleston.
But noble status wasn't always permanent. Due to a frame-up, her father was executed by the king's order. The entire family was wiped out.
She was able to survive thanks to the protection of her mother's family. However, as her father's only heir, she was originally trained as the heir of the family and always believed in the honor of the family.
She absolutely could not bear to have her family slandered like this, but fortunately, she still had the protection of her mother's family, which allowed her to find out who was behind this.
But just finding out the truth didn't help her deal with that despicable person. She was even warned not to use the power of her mother's family.
The only thing she can control now is this exchange, which she originally invested in just for fun.
Who would have thought that this exchange would become the only thing she could rely on.
She has another person who can definitely help her, Li, he can definitely do it.
"You want me to kill someone?" Li Hao frowned when he heard this.
"No, I don't want you to take action. I want you to give me a plan, a plan that can restore the glory of my family. I know you can do it." What's the use even if that villain died? Her father would never come back. What she had to do was to rebuild the glory of the nobility. No one else could help her.
But Li Hao can do it. She can control the entire Charleston in her hands. Every time she encounters a problem, she can come up with a solution. Various methods emerge one after another.
If we say that Maggie was still curious and playful at the beginning, she cooperated with Li Hao and approached Li Hao in order to get the secret out of him.
Later, Maggie was completely captivated by Li Hao, which is why she kept clinging to him, hoping that he could be used for her own benefit. Later, Shalia took advantage of the opportunity, and although she was also very curious, she held back. She wanted to maximize this opportunity.
Unexpectedly, what she did was right, and now Li Hao is her life-saving straw.
"You just need a plan?" Li Hao didn't expect Maggie to say that. "I can give you enough money, or potions. These should also allow you to regain your title."
The money in this world is no longer useful to Li Hao. She can give all the profits to Maggie. Such a large amount of money is enough for her to buy a good title.
"No, I want to make a plan. I want to personally restore the glory of the Tulip Family." Maggie's eyes were filled with desire and unwillingness. She wanted to climb up step by step and make those who took advantage of her pay the price. She wanted to let them know that the Tulip Family will never be destroyed.
Li Hao rarely admired the girl in front of him. He had only thought she was troublesome and neurotic before. Now he discovered that beneath her unreliable side, there was actually a side unknown to others.
Li Hao didn't have any plans, so of course he had to rely on the people at the base for help.
She asked Maggie to tell her everything she knew, including some things between the nobles. During the process, she questioned her subjective narration many times and reorganized it to get a more objective perspective.
Halfway through the story, a lot of people came to listen to the story in front of the base live broadcast.
From each other's words, they also gained a different understanding of the upper class of the magical world. In order to make the plan complete and error-free, they talked until midnight.
Li Hao stayed here directly. By the time Li Hao finished writing the plan for the base, it was already dawn.
"From now on, you and I have nothing to do with each other. I hope you can keep your original heart." Li Hao looked at Maggie. She was in a very embarrassing state.
During her story last night, her eyes became wet several times and she managed to hold herself together so as not to break down in front of Li Hao.
"Thank you." Maggie held up a thick stack of papers, which were torn from Li Haoshijie's notebook. They were things that did not exist in this world.
As for whether Maggie keeps it or destroys it after reading it, it is none of her business.
But Li Hao probably didn't expect that her stack of papers would be framed by Maggie and passed down as a family heirloom. As a renowned family among humans, who could have imagined that their glory would be brought by just a dozen pages of paper? While the strategies within those pages were tailored to Maggie's situation and the circumstances at the time, the principles and knowledge they contained were truly invaluable.
Only the head of each Tulip family had the opportunity to view these dozen pages. Each family would write down their own experiences and insights as a copy to pass on.
It was not until the Tulip family declined unexpectedly that these papers were circulated, and each one was sought after and regarded as a treasure.
Li Hao watched Maggie leave. This might be the last time she saw this girl. Who could have thought that the relationship between her and Maggie, whom she had always been on guard against, would end like this.
"You...why are you giving me half of the shares?" Shalia suddenly said.
Li Hao naturally knew that Shalia had come a long time ago, and she was waiting for Shalia to speak. She originally thought that the other party had something to ask her.
I didn't expect to ask this question.
"Why... because you saved me." Li Hao thought for a moment and answered truthfully.
"You mean that time, those orcs?" Shalia said, recalling the past. "But you paid them back then."
Hearing this question, Li Hao thought that it was not just because of that time.
Li Hao had a guess. If she had gone to any other store instead of Sharia's, she would have most likely been murdered for her money.
She was so lucky to meet the Blood Merchant Shalia. She later learned that Shalia had the ability of divination. She thought that Shalia must have divined something, so he kept her.
But it is undeniable that Shariya did not touch Li Hao, and the practical help she provided was even more than that of Victoria.
Li Hao's feeling towards Shalia is similar to that towards Wang Bing who discovered that he had traveled through time.
She tolerated Wang Bing's unreasonable demands again and again because it was Wang Bing who discovered her live broadcast in time and contacted her before she was in danger. He became the spiritual pillar of Li Hao, who was isolated and helpless at the time.
Unlike Shariya, Wang Bing consumed her gratitude bit by bit, and Li Hao was completely disappointed with Wang Bing.
"It's not just that time. From the moment I met you, if it weren't for you, I might not be standing here today. This is what I'm repaying. Don't worry, this exchange has fulfilled its duty to me. It will belong to you from now on." Li Hao gave the answer.
Is that so? Shaliya still didn’t understand, but seemed to understand.
Li Hao left immediately, which should be the complete repayment.
She worked overnight to make plans so she could spend more time with Victoria, who was now taking Li Hao on a tour of Charleston.
Because of the stock exchange, Charleston has gained many more places for leisure and entertainment, many of which are modeled after the previous luminous □.
However, there are also many local original projects here, which made Li have a lot of fun.
"...I haven't been to Charleston in ages. I was supposed to celebrate becoming a full-fledged mage, but then the Beast Tide hit, and I've been stuck in the Warcraft Forest for the past two months." Victoria complained about her bad luck, then brightened up again. "You came back just in time. The Mage Tower was holding a celebration for third-level mages, so we mages could come back. Otherwise, I wouldn't have had time to play with you."
Li Hao certainly knew why Victoria was able to come back.
"By the way, you haven't seen the teacher yet. The teacher is a little dissatisfied with your sudden departure. You'd better apologize to the teacher." Victoria said.
Although she said a lot of good things to Li Hao, she had disappeared for so long and had not fulfilled her responsibilities as a disciple. Although Li Hao had sent a lot of gold coins to Michelle through Shalia using Li Hao's money, Michelle had completely given up on this missing student.
"I'm not going back to the Mage Tower. I..." Li Hao wanted to take this opportunity to say that he might not show up again. But looking at Victoria who was happily playing the game, he swallowed his words.
Let’s just have fun first, and leave the separation for later.
Li Hao played with Victoria for the entire day. The next day, Victoria had to return to the Mage Tower, and the two naturally parted ways.
Of course, Li Hao, the person involved, had to go back as well. But she would use Perry's identity. She changed her mask again, and Lord Perry returned to the Mage Tower.
By this time, the Mage Tower had returned to its former bustle, even more so. Mage apprentices were ordered to stay in their dormitories and not come out.
The Mage's Tower was originally located halfway up the mountain. The original floating bridge has disappeared, leaving behind an open space. There are platforms and seats on the open space, as well as flagpoles, flowers, statues, and other beautiful decorations.
The lowest rank among the receptionists here was a formal mage. As soon as Li Hao appeared, he was invited to the platform by three formal mages.
The four tables and chairs were obviously prepared for these third-level mages.
