Looking at the suggestions that the group of Voidwalkers came up with, Baiyi was completely speechless. What was wrong with their understanding of the concept of a no-cost business? Not only did they use some dirty tricks, but some of them even used the concepts from Earth? Tsk tsk! Tsk! Who's the guy who said to write? Do you still want to buy recommendation tickets and tips?
"Huh? What's wrong with that? The nobles in this world love those novels. It's very easy to make money from them by using those stories from Earth. We can even save on the copyright fees … "The Painter Walker argued.
Let's not talk about immoral things like plagiarizing someone else's work. Isn't this way too slow? Let's talk about the one who suggested crowdfunding. Does he need to draw a QR code or something?
"I'm sorry. I'm so envious of the convenient way to scam money back on Earth. I've been thinking about how to recreate this high-end scam technique here. It was a slip of the tongue," The Merchant Walker said.
Can't we learn something better? Stock futures, real estate, steam discounts? Which one of them is better than this? If not, why don't you try mobile games? Don't be like those Bard Walkers who suggested living off a woman!
"Alright, I have a serious suggestion. We can try to seek sponsorship from those nobles," The Merchant Walker quickly added. "There are many nobles and tycoons in this world who have the habit of investing in powerhouses for their own safety and influence. I have supported many powerhouses when I was alive, and I have also sponsored some powerhouses who were short of money or young people with great potential. They have also brought me a lot of benefits in the future. So, this method should be the fastest and most convenient. "
"Sounds good. But, are you sure that I can convince others with my current Intermediate Strength? The nobles and tycoons are not fools. Besides, I'm just a Soul Armature now. "Baiyi pointed out the difficulty of this idea.
"Hehe! Have you forgotten me, sir? My tricks are most suitable for this kind of situation! "The Charlatan who had just been unmuted chimed in.
"You? Seems like it could work … "Baiyi replied after thinking for a while.
Among the thirty-three Voidwalkers, the Charlatan was one of a kind. His combat prowess was not strong, not even at the Legendary Level. Compared to the other powerful Voidwalkers, he was just a nobody. However, his mastery of deception and illusions was unmatched by the other Voidwalkers.
When he was alive, he had independently developed a whole set of high-end illusions that could easily imitate various levels of energy reactions and the aura of experts. He could even imitate the posture of a Holy Spirit. Coupled with his exquisite acting skills, even peak experts who were far stronger than him could not see through him. His enemies had always thought that he was a genuine peak expert. They did not hesitate to spend all their wealth to buy a level-9 magic scroll that recorded the Soul Banishment spell and banished his soul into the void.
I wonder what kind of expression those people would have when they found out that they had wasted a Soul Banishment Card on someone like him. In any case, this guy really did live up to his nickname, the Charlatan. If Baiyi were to use his illusionary techniques, he would be able to disguise himself as a powerful fighter of any level with ease.
"Let's use this method then," the Archmage said. "Considering that you will be on your own more often in the future, you will definitely appear in this identity and in this manner many times. The Charlatan's tricks will be very useful. It's good that you get used to it now."
"I understand that, but it still feels a little weird," the Archmage said. He was already strong enough but now he had to use these tricks to prove his strength. Thinking about it, it did feel a little awkward.
After the decision was made, Baiyi waited for Mia to leave for her classes the next day. Not long after, the bear-like dormitory manager's shrill voice could be heard echoing through the entire female dormitory of the Soul Armature Department.
"Which f * cking thief stole my curtain?!"
At that moment, Baiyi was wearing a cloak that was made from gray curtains. He jumped over the wall of the Celestial Fortress Academy. His entire body was covered in the loose cloak. His head, face, hands, and feet were completely covered. He did not look like a suspicious militia's full body armor at all.
Still, the way he was dressed was already suspicious enough! As he walked on the streets of Arfin, he did not have the mood to admire the scenery of the magnificent city at all. The vigilant gazes of the passersby soon forced Baiyi to choose the alleys with fewer people. He even had to use the Stealth Knowledge that he inherited from the Assassin. Fortunately, the Assassin who was once a top-notch assassin in his previous life did not have any limitations on his strength. Now that he was only at the Intermediate Level, he could still be invisible in broad daylight.
As for the infiltration method that the Assassin used... If it was not necessary, then forget it...
"I-I feel like I'm a thief..." Baiyi could not help but exclaim as he nimbly traversed between the rooftops, "Why don't I just sneak into a rich person's house and steal a ticket?"
"You have to get used to this feeling because you will have many more opportunities to dress up like this in the future." The Archmage chuckled, "That's why you should take this opportunity to get used to the Assassin's level. With your standard, you will definitely be an SSR ticket."
This guy's mind has drifted to the moon again... Baiyi thought to himself speechlessly. In fact, he knew very well that there was no distance between him and Mia so he had to make good use of it. In order to complete the mission of rescuing all the Voidwalkers, he needed to have his own connections and even build up his own force.
The wealthy district of Arfin was not too far away from the Celestial Fortress Academy. Very soon, Baiyi arrived at the district. Looking at the luxurious villas in front of him, he asked in a low voice, "Which fat sheep should I pick?"
"I suggest the second building on the right, the one with the two guards standing at the entrance. Judging from the equipment they are wearing, that family should be the richest in this area," The Merchant immediately suggested.
Baiyi glanced at the eye-catching emblem hanging outside the three-story building and said playfully, "Hey, this emblem looks a little familiar, don't you think?"
"Yes, this is actually the emblem of my family. That should be the property of my family in Arfin," The Merchant admitted frankly. The merchant admitted frankly, "From the looks of it, I don't think they've squandered all the assets I've left behind."
"Do you really want me to be related to your descendants that much? You know what the secular world thinks of us, right? Aren't you afraid of implicating them? "Baiyi did not rush into action but continued to ask.
"The first thing a qualified businessman should have is a qualified foresight. I have no reason to look down on the powerful Fifth Walker. Besides, you are the key to our escape, sir," The Merchant said sincerely. "Besides, the Dole family has always had the habit of funding the strong so the success rate of finding them is very high."
"Alright, you've convinced me." Baiyi nodded his head and jumped down from the roof. Then, he pretended to be a normal passerby and approached the two high-ranking guards at the entrance. From a close distance, he could see that they were wearing half-body armor made of fine steel and a long sword that was faintly emitting magical waves was hanging on their waists. It was much more expensive than the militia armor that he was wearing.
In addition, there was a small garden that could be seen from the door. There were all kinds of seemingly ordinary but actually expensive plants planted in it. They were neatly trimmed, beautiful and elegant. This was a low-key and subtle way to show the owner's huge wealth to outsiders.
When the two guards saw Baiyi, who was dressed suspiciously, their first reaction was to grab the hilt of their swords with vigilance. One of them even took half a step forward and shouted at Baiyi, "This is the private villa of the Dole family. Outsiders are not allowed to enter. Please do not come any closer!"
"Tell your butler that Andrew the wandering sorcerer needs some funding," Baiyi said in a completely different voice. Baiyi said in a completely different voice. It was low and deep like an old man who was about to die. There was a huge difference between the voice that he used in front of Mia.
As he spoke, a formless aura of an expert quietly seeped out from his body, causing the two guards to shiver and raise their spirits by 120%.
"Mr. Butler … He's very busy. Not every roaming sorcerer can receive funding from the Dole family." The guard standing at the back could not help but swallow his saliva as he replied in a low voice. Although his voice sounded calm, the beads of sweat on his forehead betrayed the nervousness that he was trying to suppress.
He did not know why but he did not feel any energy fluctuation from the strange black-robed man in front of him. It was as if he was just an ordinary person. He was also standing like an ordinary person. On the surface, there was nothing that could be seen. However, he could not help but feel that there was an invisible pressure from the other party that was constantly stimulating his nerves.
His intuition as a Senior Warrior told him that this guy was very dangerous. If he were to make a move, he would probably end up in a miserable state.
The other guard's feelings were similar to his. The strange aura on this black-robed man made him completely afraid to act rashly. His hand that was holding the hilt of his sword was even sweating because of this. He had seen many powerhouses who served the family, but he had never felt such a strong pressure from them like the one in front of him.
