Chapter 276 Conspiracy(2/4)
This is why Fuzuoer Chamberry firmly believes that Zuo Si has the potential to become the greatest tyrant.
You must know that the tyrant defined by Benn Church is not the kind of supreme ruler who most people think makes the country miserable for the people, then unscrupulously collects wealth and enjoys all kinds of luxurious life.
Quite the opposite!
In their eyes, a tyrant is someone who is powerful enough to suppress all opposition and implement his or her will.
Using violence, intimidation, threats, etc. to force others to obey you is the only criterion for measuring a tyrant.
This can be seen from the slogan "Only Ben obeys" shouted by the Church of the God of Tyranny.
In addition, even under the rule of a tyrant, a country can become very prosperous, and the people's living standards are far better than other regions.
"So you think this young voter will become a terrible tyrant in the future?"
Kaidong seemed to realize something, and a solemn expression appeared on his face.
"Sorry, I don't know, old friend. But our duty and task is to prevent things from getting to the worst. I hope you can go to Neverwinter first, get in touch with the Church of the God of Justice there, and then
Then go to Luskan to establish a branch of the Knights." Captain Witherland stated his thoughts straightforwardly.
"Establishing a branch of the Knights? In Luskan?" Kaidong raised his eyebrows in surprise.
Captain Witherland nodded seriously: "That's right. I have talked to Soth before, and he agreed that as long as he does not object to the use of undead labor, he will allow us to move in and give us corresponding law enforcement and trial rights."<
/p>
"I don't understand. Why would he do this?" Kaidong asked with a puzzled look on his face.
"His own answer is that he hopes we can reshape the chaotic nature of Luskan and make the locals no longer wary of each other on a social level and have a certain degree of confidence in the law." Captain Witherland gave it without thinking.
Got the answer.
"Like cooperation on the Maztec continent?"
Kaidong suddenly remembered the invitation Zuo Si sent to the Knights of the Burning Heart half a year ago, and the law enforcement team sent half a month later.
"Absolutely. As long as it is within the general framework of the law, we have judicial power independent of the administrative system. No matter what Soth's real purpose is, I think this is a good opportunity."
Captain Witherland expressed his truest thoughts with serious words.
"Okay, I hope you are right. Give me two days to prepare, and I will leave for Neverwinter in two days."
Kaidong was silent for a moment and finally chose to agree.
Although he preferred to stay in Ascaltra to accompany his wife and newborn child, his strong sense of responsibility and mission still made this young paladin embark on the journey to the far north again.
However, these two paladins of the Knights of the Burning Heart did not know that the entire conversation they just had was projected onto the mirror on the top wall of the mage tower.
Looking at Kaidong's retreating back in the mirror, Zuo Si quickly turned off the magic detection and fell into deep self-doubt.
Because he really couldn't figure out how he was like a tyrant.
Whether it is using undead labor to engage in production activities or providing goblins to fill the labor gap in Amn, it is obviously benefiting society, liberating more ordinary people from boring and tedious manual labor, and at the same time providing a large amount of basic living supplies to ensure
Stability of grain, salt, etc. prices.
What's more, the person who really rules the Neransir Islands and Luskan is not Zuo Si, but Vanessa, the second-in-command in the organization, and the bureaucracy controlled by him.
He has never had much interest in power, and he is even less willing to waste precious time and energy on it.
But now it's better, I've been labeled as a tyrant for no reason.
Just when Zuo Si was very confused about this, Mage Tower suddenly notified through telepathy: "Master, two strangers appeared outside the secret door of the sewer and asked to meet you."
"Stranger?" Zuo Si was slightly stunned.
"That's right. According to my detection, one of them is a vampire, and the other is a human with amazing divine power in his body. It is very likely that he is the chosen one of a certain god."
The Mage Tower consciousness was explaining while projecting a magical influence on the mirror.
"Xi Manmeng!"
Zuo Si just glanced at it and immediately called out the name of one of them in surprise.
He is too familiar with the actual controller of the Zhentarim's dark intelligence network.
There have been more than one contact and cooperation between the two.
But it all eventually turned hostile when Manson launched an ambush on himself in Luskan.
However, Xi Manmeng looked obviously a little abnormal at this moment. Not only was his face very pale, but his eyes were also gloomier than before.
Zuo Si was sure that he had never seen the man with long blond hair standing next to him.
After thinking about it for a few seconds, he immediately ordered: "Let them in. I want to see what other tricks this guy wants to do."
"As you wish."
The consciousness of the Mage Tower immediately opened the hidden secret door.
At the end of the originally sealed passage, a wall suddenly disappeared out of thin air, revealing an entrance to the underground floor of the tower.
The two of them walked in without even hesitating.
Soon, under the leadership of a golem, they walked through the long and narrow corridors and stairs, and finally came to a secret reception room.
Zuo Si, who had been waiting here for a long time, joked in a slightly sarcastic tone: "I can't believe that you can still muster up the courage to appear in front of me. I thought you would avoid me in the future."
"Luskan's actions were all planned by the teacher, and they have nothing to do with me. What's more, the teacher has paid a heavy price for this, and you have also done everything to Zhentil Castle and the Dark Castle.
A series of important strongholds retaliated. Even if there was anger, it should be almost gone by now."
Xi Manmeng decisively distanced himself from his direct connection with the whole incident and put all the responsibility on Mansong.
I have to say that his attitude instantly made Zuo Si smell something unusual. He immediately narrowed his eyes and asked, "Is there any problem within the Zhentarim?"
Xi Manmeng quickly denied it: "We don't have any problems, at least not yet."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
"Not yet? Does that mean there will be in the future?" Zuo Si instantly grasped the key.
Just when Xi Manmeng was still about to explain, Fuzuoer Chamberry suddenly stood up and interrupted: "Okay, don't play these boring word games, let's talk straight to the point. First of all, myself
Let me introduce, my name is Fu Zouer Chambery, I believe you must have heard of it. Nice to meet you, young voter."
Having said that, this man who was filled with strong confidence extended his right hand.
But Zuo Si just glanced at him and did not choose to shake hands with the other party. Instead, he questioned with a very indifferent attitude: "Tyrant of the Moon Sea? I don't know what advice you have here? Don't tell me that you are here to make peace.
, persuade me to give up revenge on Mansong."
"Hahahaha! No, of course not." Fuzoul Chamberlain laughed wildly. "On the contrary, I am here to seek cooperation with you. Unlike that short-sighted idiot Manson, I can see the inner workings of your soul.
The bright light radiates. As long as we join forces, we will definitely be able to do something earth-shattering. Of course, in order to express my sincerity, I am willing to help you get rid of Mansong once and for all."
"I really want to know, what do you mean by the earth-shattering event?" Zuo Si pretended to be interested.
"For example, against our common enemy, the Dark Sun, and his church." Fuzoul Chamberlain said meaningfully.
Zuo Si sneered and asked, "Why do you think I would take a huge risk to fight with you against one of the most powerful evil gods in the world?"
Fuzoul Chamberry pursed his lips and replied with a half-smile: "Because we are all voters, you can't fool me at all.
From the time you were still in Calimport, you have shown an unabashed hostility towards the Dark Sun and its followers.
Moreover, both Talona, the goddess of poison and disease, and Midnight, the newly appointed third-generation goddess of magic, are hostile to Cyric.
So we are naturally allies, but it was destroyed by this short-sighted idiot Manson."
"So what? The person who controls the Zhentarim and Zhentil Keep now is Manson, not you." Zuo Si provoked unceremoniously.
"That's why we need to cooperate to get rid of Manson.
In fact, over the years, I have been secretly investigating several locations where he used to store clones, and now I have some clues.
If Xi Manmeng’s help is included, I believe it won’t take long to figure out all of Mansong’s trump cards.
When the time comes, as long as you and I join forces to launch a surprise attack, we will definitely be able to defeat Mansong and then destroy all the clones before they wake up.
So what, is this a good plan?"
As he said that, Fuzuoer Qianberry raised his hand and patted Xi Menmeng's shoulder next to him, with a sinister expression on his face.
If you want to find one person in this world who wants to kill Manson the most, it must be him.
Even long-time enemies like the Harpers have to step aside.
As the saying goes, there is naked hatred between peers.
Since the founding of the Zhentarim, Fuzor Chambery has been trying to seize control, but has always been suppressed by Manzon.
Because Bane, the god of tyranny, holds the priesthood of "Dispute", he is very happy to see the two factions under his command fighting each other and will not favor any party.
This was later perfectly inherited and carried forward by Cyric, creating a powerful divine power that was extremely evil and chaotic.
So now that he has the opportunity to get rid of Manson, Fuzoul Chamberry will naturally not let it go easily.
Moreover, in the face of powerful external threats, the church he leads can no longer withstand too fierce internal fighting, and must be completely unified to confront the increasingly powerful Cyric.
Zuo Si undoubtedly felt the other party's strong intentions and quickly began to consider the gains and losses in his mind.
After about two or three minutes, he spoke at a leisurely pace: "In principle, I agree to cooperate with you, not only to cooperate, but also to expand the scope to allow more forces to join in."
