The Charismatic Charlie Wade – Chapter 5421

"What? The Empty City Strategy?"

Maria and Zeba exchanged puzzled glances upon hearing Charlie's words. They were well aware of the historical allusion he was referring to. In the famous novel ‘The Kairice of the Three Kingdoms’, Zhuge used the Empty City Strategy when he faced a siege from Sima's massive army. Zhuge calmly played the zither on top of the city walls, tricking Sima into thinking it was a trap and instilling fear in his heart.

But why was Charlie bringing up this strategy when discussing Morgana? Did he plan on climbing a tower and playing an instrument like Zhuge to intimidate her? Maria was the first to voice her concern, "Mr. Wade, the reason the Empty City Strategy worked for Zhuge was because he made Sima fear the unknown. However, if you reveal your identity, regardless of whether Aurous Hill has spies or not, Morgana will surely send her three trusted elders to test your true intentions. She will only fear you if you remain a mysterious figure lurking in the shadows. Once you step into the light, she will have no choice but to confront you head-on... "

Maria couldn't help but interject, trying to dissuade Charlie from taking unnecessary risks. "Indeed, My Lord, Zeba's words make sense. At this point, the chances of scaring Morgana away with your true identity are almost zero. I advise you not to take any reckless actions..."

Instead of heeding their advice, Charlie chuckled at their concern and responded with an enigmatic expression. "You two, don't underestimate my intelligence. I'm not foolish enough to willingly expose myself to Morgana."
