Chapter 415 If you don’t give trust, you won’t be betrayed.
Lake Castle, a medium-sized stone castle located near the west of Cremour City and surrounded by rivers and lakes.
It has four large estates under its jurisdiction. It not only has vast and fertile land and a complete irrigation system close to water sources, but also has ownership of large areas of mountainous land and forestland. It can be said that it is naturally very suitable for the development of agriculture, animal husbandry and breeding. p>
This place was originally used by Sir Elroth to house his mistress and illegitimate child, but was later donated to Zuo Si by Bernard.
Since then, Steward Ibby Palen has been serving the latter wholeheartedly.
Since he doesn't need to sell any agricultural products at all, and he doesn't have to deal with profiteers who deliberately lower the purchase price of grain, his job is much easier than before.
Often it is enough to organize the tenant farmers to sow seeds at the right time, harvest them during the harvest and store them in the warehouse, and then wait for the lord to send someone to pick them up.
In addition, the next step is to raise more poultry and livestock such as pigs, cattle, sheep, chickens, ducks, and geese, while ensuring that there are enough horses in the castle, and occasionally taking advantage of the drop in grain prices to purchase some of the grain stocks of other manors and homesteaders.
These tasks are not easy for an experienced castle manager.
And according to the report of the guard captain, even the frequency of bandits and monsters near the territory is much less than before, as if they are afraid of something.
Even if goblins, gnolls, orcs and trolls appear occasionally, they will soon disappear inexplicably, as if they never appeared.
This strange situation led to the fact that merchants heard that the road near Lake Castle was safer, so they would rather go a little further away and choose this way, which brought considerable additional income to the castle, including tolls and accommodation and food provided.
Services.
The only thing that makes Ibby Palen feel a little regretful is that Zuo Si, the owner, has only come once, and has never stayed overnight in the castle, or held any banquets, dances, or hunting activities.
This made him learn a lot of social etiquette, banquet layout, food and drink placement and other professional knowledge that was completely useless.
The people I usually interact with the most are basically my own people within the castle and the manor.
Those senior male and female servants who have received special training are also troubled because they have no master to serve, and they don't know what the meaning of their existence is.
But today, Ibi Palen rarely changed into his most exquisite clothes, and the leather boots under his feet were polished to a shine.
The servants lined up neatly and stood at the gate, seeming to be waiting for the arrival of a certain important guest.
In about ten minutes, a carriage, escorted by hundreds of knights, arrived at the gate of the castle.
As the car door clicked open, a woman who looked to be in her twenties and wearing a long black mourning dress slowly walked out.
She first looked at the castle with great interest, and then walked to the entrance with the help of a personal maid.
"Welcome, Miss Vera Salem. Your arrival makes the entire Lake Castle shine. I am the steward here, and I am here to welcome you on the order of Lord Soth."
Ibi Palen took the initiative to greet him, put one hand on his chest and bowed deeply.
It can be seen from the slightly trembling arms that he is very nervous and excited at the moment.
After all, everyone in Amn knows the name of the Salem Quant family and the wealth and power it represents.
Although the tragic massacre that occurred not long ago made this family look very weak and cast a tragic color.
However, the status and influence in people's minds will not change in a short period of time.
Vera smiled calmly and nodded: "Thank you. If you don't mind, can you tell me that Mr. Soth is currently in the castle? Compared to those boring red tapes, I prefer to be straightforward.
”
Ibi Palen was slightly taken aback and quickly replied: "Lord Soth is not currently in the castle. However, he has made it clear that he will arrive before lunch."
"Lunch? That means it will take about an hour and a half..."
Vera lowered her head and glanced at the valuable and exquisite pocket watch in her hand, with a hint of playfulness flashing in her eyes.
As a smart person, she understood almost instantly that the other party was using this method to clarify the affiliation between superiors and subordinates, and at the same time, she was also warning herself.
In social etiquette, the person who arrives first and waits often means the weak and inferior, while the person who arrives late means the strong and superior.
It's as if people with less important status have to arrive in advance, while people with high status often show up at the finale at a stuck time.
Fortunately, Vera was mentally prepared for this, so she quickly entered the reception room on the second floor of the castle under the arrangement of Ibi Palen, enjoying the scenery outside the window while tasting the drinks and snacks served by the other party.
Just as she expected, Zuo Si teleported over from the mage tower in Askatra almost without a meal.
And the atmosphere during meal time is very depressing and dull.
Several times Vera tried to stir up the topic, but was quickly interrupted.
In desperation, she could only wait patiently for a more suitable time until the meal was over. According to the practice of the Amn nobles, the host would invite the guests to visit his study and discuss some more private matters.
After the steward and the servants left, Zuo Si asked with a smile: "You must be wondering why I always interrupted you before, right?"
"It's a bit strange. But I think you must have your own reasons, right?"
Vera picked up the cup and took a sip of red wine to hide her dissatisfaction.
"Because I'm watching you."
Zuo Si did not hide anything and gave the answer very simply and directly.
Vera was stunned for a moment, then asked in a slightly curious tone: "Observe me? Why?"
Zuo Si replied casually: "Confirm whether you have enough patience and ability to be my starting point for controlling the six-person council and even the entire Amn."
"What's the result?"
Vera became obviously nervous, put down the wine glass in her hand and continued to ask.
"Not too bad.
Although your character is naturally a little restless, you can still control yourself at critical moments.
This is very important.
Because as a politician, the most important thing is to learn to be patient.
In addition, I am very curious, what is your motivation for choosing to raise the butcher knife against your own family?
Is it simply to seize power, or for some other unknown reason?"
When saying these words, Zuo Si did not avoid looking into the eyes of the woman in front of him.
From his pupils, you can clearly see blue mana flowing, which is obviously the use of some magic to read thoughts and memories.
But unfortunately, most of these spells are blocked by the immunity mind magic necklace worn.
This thing is almost a must-have for members of the six-person Council and even for the upper-level rulers of many places throughout Faerûn.
Only in this way can we ensure that it will not be controlled by evil spellcasters or monsters such as beholders and mind flayers, and become a puppet controlled by the other party.
However, since Zuo Si did not use spells under the same system, there were still one or two that had a certain effect.
But Vera didn't know this, and there was an expression of struggle on her face. It took a while before she uttered five words with a wry smile.
"Because I am unwilling!"
"Not willing?"
Zuo Si obviously didn't expect the truth to be so surprising, and raised his eyebrows in disbelief.
"Yes, I just don't want to give in.
Why can men inherit the family business, while women can only sacrifice themselves to get married?
From the moment I learned that my grandfather was trying to marry me to Tumis, strong unwillingness and anger engulfed my heart like a flame.
You must know that among my peers in the family, my abilities and talents have always been the best.
When I was fourteen years old, I successfully judged in advance that due to unknown reasons, the flow of goods to Ascatra was decreasing, while the flow of goods out was increasing, by observing the number and frequency of merchant ships arriving at the port.
This crucial information allowed the family to stock up on goods in advance and make a huge profit when the subsequent price increase came.
Later I learned that it was because of the storm that several important shipping routes were delayed, so the inflow of goods decreased in a short period of time.
From then on, all chambers of commerce and big families will send special personnel to the ports and markets to keep an eye on the market so that they will not be caught off guard like before when similar situations occur.
When I got my own money at the age of 20, it took me less than a year and a half to six-fold it, and I owned four boats, two shops in the Woking shopping district, and one at the pier.
District warehouse.
Of course, this is also thanks to you opening up a new route to the Maztec continent.
You know, I was one of the first merchants to transport cocoa beans back from across the sea.
In addition, I am also an excellent warrior, with a warrior level of LV9, and I have personally killed terrifying monsters like trolls and ogres.
No matter how I compare, I am the most perfect and outstanding heir among all my brothers and sisters.
But what’s the result?
Whether it’s my grandfather, my father, or my incompetent brothers, they all turn a blind eye to my achievements.
It seems that women are not born worthy of inheriting the family business, and their only role is to sacrifice their bodies for marriage.
Do you think this is fair?
I hate this feeling of being ignored, and I hate even more that I don’t get the recognition I deserve for my hard work.
So when His Majesty Shane VII came to visit me, I agreed to join his operation without any hesitation.
Since this game about family inheritance is not fair at all, why should I follow the bullshit rules that are overwhelmingly disadvantageous to me?
Why not just flip the table over?
Anyway, the essence of power is violence, the ability to force others to do things they don’t like.
I don’t need other people’s likes, I just want their respect, awe and fear.”
As the last word blurted out, Vera raised her chin and showed her truest side.
There is no doubt that this is a woman with an extremely arrogant and conceited personality, and she is also a guy with a strong competitive spirit and desire to win.
She longs for recognition and praise, and longs for her efforts to be rewarded as expected.
Judging from the alignment, it should be typical of evil and lawful.
After realizing this, Zuo Si immediately said meaningfully: "Yes, it is indeed unfair.
In this male-dominated society, women must work several times harder to be recognized.
But don't worry, I respect women and believe that women have the same power and abilities as men.
After all, the Dark Elves and many other similar matriarchal societies have proven that women can be stronger, more deadly, and more dangerous than men.
And I can give you what you want, but only if you complete the tasks I assigned."
"No problem. I like tasks and challenges, especially difficult ones."
Vera's tone was full of strong confidence.
"In this case, I will give you the first task.
Disintegrating the six-member council will eliminate the alliance between you and the remaining four families except the Shadow Thieves Guild.
I want to see them being wary, wary, wary and distrustful of each other, instead of being in such a harmonious mood now.
In addition, there are too many large chambers of commerce in Ascaltra that have a monopoly. I hope that some of them will decline and then make enough space for other small and medium-sized chambers of commerce.
How about, do you like this challenge?"
After that, Zuo Si took out a list he had prepared in advance and handed it over.
Vera took it and glanced at it twice, and the corners of her mouth quickly turned up to form a graceful arc: "How could I not like such an interesting and bold plan? If I guessed correctly, you should be planning to rectify and unify it.
Amn’s market, and then establish a series of perfect laws and systems, right?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Zuo Si smiled and shook his head: "It's not just Amn.
I want to build a super business circle that covers more than 90% of the entire west coast of Faerûn.
Including a unified market, tariffs and currency, allowing goods to circulate freely.
In this process, the goddess of wealth, Watkin, and her church will also become our closest allies, actively promoting agreements with various towns.
I guarantee that this will definitely be an important event and turning point that can be recorded in the history of Faerûn as the Calimshan Abolition Movement.
Regardless of success or failure, your name will be remembered by historians."
"Covering the entire west coast of the continent?
Vera's pupils suddenly dilated, contracted, and then dilated again, and then she began to laugh uncontrollably. While laughing, she sighed: "What a great gesture!
His Majesty Xia En VII is indeed right!
Your courage and means will never disappoint anyone.
I would venture to ask, did this plan start from the time when the pirates of Nelanser Islands were controlled?
First, let them switch from plundering to collecting protection fees to continuously expand their power, until they have the most important routes on the entire west coast under their control.
Then, when all towns and merchants become accustomed to receiving protection by paying money, they will then use their absolute monopoly and dominance at sea to force the other party to continue to make concessions and join this unified market.
Because you now have control over the three most important trade hubs in the Sword Coast, Luskan, Nelanthal Islands and Baldur's Gate.
In the future, he will also become the master of the West Heartland region, Amn, Tethyr and Calimshan.
If anyone dares to refuse, the town will be immediately isolated.
As long as an embargo order is issued, their goods will not be sold, and they will not be able to buy any necessary daily necessities.
My dear master, your deep thoughts are simply frightening."
"If I said all this is just a coincidence, would you believe it?"
The corner of Zuo Si's mouth twitched slightly.
He swore that he really didn't think that much at first.
In particular, it was Vanessa who proposed and implemented the idea of using pirates from the Nelanser Islands to seize control of the sea.
Later, after this guy was transferred to the floating city permanently, the fleet was handed over to another lich.
It can be said that Zuo Si never interfered from the beginning to the end. He only guided and controlled the general direction when necessary to prevent some people from going too far or provoking enemies they should not provoke.
"Haha, you really know how to joke."
Vera's face was filled with the expression "Believe me".
You don't need to ask to know that this woman has already preconceived Zuo Si as a legendary spellcaster as ambitious and cunning as Manson or Sazastan.
After all, all of these things look like careful planning rather than improvisation.
Realizing that no matter how he explained, nothing could be changed, Zuo Si immediately sighed and said, "Oh - okay, I admit that this was all planned for a long time, as you can see." p>
"This is right.
Dear master, there is absolutely no need for you to pretend in front of me.
His Majesty Shah En VII once said that the meaning of my existence is to be loyal to you.
Compared to your identity as the hero and guardian of Ascaltra, I prefer your true side now, and I am willing to contribute my own strength to your ambition and career.
From today on, no matter what you need, you can tell me directly.
The Salem Quant family will do its best to serve you."
After saying that, Vera knelt down and bowed solemnly, and at the same time took the initiative to kiss the magic ring on Zuo Si's finger to show her submission.
"Then I'll look forward to your next performance.
If you are as smart and capable as you describe, then I guarantee that you will get everything you desire.
Whether it’s wealth, power, strength, fame and recognition from society..."
Zuo Si gave his promise very simply.
After a brief exchange, he discovered that not only did he not hate this cruel woman who killed his entire family, but he also quite liked her simplicity and directness.
Because people like Vera have a strong desire for expression and like to expose their thoughts to groups that are considered "one of their own".
You don't even have to waste too much time guessing, you can tell what she wants at a glance.
Moreover, he is very decisive in his behavior. Once he seizes the opportunity, he will launch a surprise attack with lightning speed. He will never hesitate or let the opportunity slip away.
After formally confirming the affiliation, Zuo Si spent the next time asking Vera about the recent reactions of the six-person council, and what families or political forces controlled the major cities in Amn.
It was not until evening that the latter left under the protection of the family knights.
As soon as she left, Ibi Palen came up to her and asked enthusiastically: "Sir, what did you and Ms. Vera talk about in the study? I saw that she seemed very happy when she left."
"It's nothing, it's just some cooperation matters." Zuo Si shrugged his shoulders and replied in an evasive manner.
"Just cooperation?"
A disappointed expression suddenly appeared on the old manager's face.
Zuo Si sneered and asked: "Otherwise? Do you still expect us to get married?"
"Why not?
You are unmarried, and Miss Vera is also unmarried.
Moreover, the Salem Quante family has just experienced a disaster, and it is exactly the time when a strong person is needed to guard and protect them.
If you can join together through marriage, you can immediately form a formidable family.
What's more, you have reached the age where you should get married and have children.
Lake Castle also needs a mistress and heir."
Ibby Palen expressed the beautiful vision in her heart.
As a very traditional castle steward, what he most hopes to see is that his loyal masters can get married like real Amn nobles, and then have a lot of children and raise them to laugh and play in the castle.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Likewise, I can spend the rest of my time accompanying and watching over the growth of these little masters until the end of their lives.
"No, you don't understand. Many things are not as simple as they appear on the surface. Don't worry about me, because that is not an area you can touch."
After that, Zuo Si prepared to use teleportation magic to leave.
"Wait!"
Ibi Palen shouted quickly, then took out a piece of parchment from his pocket and explained: "My lord, here is a letter for you."
"Letter to me? Who wrote it?"
Zuo Si was shocked with a hint of doubt.
Because he really couldn't think of any person he knew who would not be smart enough to write a letter to the castle.
Putting aside the various magical communication methods, even if you really want to send a letter, the first place you should choose should be the wizard tower in Askatra.
No matter how bad it is, it is much more reliable to send it to Luskan or the Nelanthel Islands than to send it to this castle that I have never been to a few times.
"The writer is Sir De Arnis, who is not far from us. He hopes to lend you a sum of money to pay for the cost of repairing the castle and building embankments, and promises to repay it within six months, and
Pay fifteen percent interest."
Ibi Palen quickly opened the parchment and showed the contents inside and the clay seal with the seal of the Deanis family.
Zuo Si glanced at it and asked in an uncertain tone: "Why did Sir De Anis come to me to borrow money? I remember he has never even seen me."
"Uh... In fact, due to being robbed by jackals not long ago, and then flooded, Sir De Arnis and his family are facing financial difficulties.
In addition, he was originally a traditional land aristocrat, so his income and financial situation have never been ideal.
In order to get out of the current predicament, this knight with a good reputation has appealed to all his neighbors for help, and you are just one of them.
But the problem is that no one is optimistic about his business and repayment capabilities, so no one is willing to lend a helping hand yet.
In the past, when he encountered similar difficulties, Sir De Arnis usually turned to Duke Farsington Ronoll for help.
However, as the Ronoll family encountered misfortune and was almost wiped out, he became difficult when encountering financial difficulties, and even had a loan of eight thousand gold coins that has not yet been paid off.
Not only that!
In order to take care of the orphan Isiah and ensure that the Ronal family's land would not be abandoned, Sir De Arnis also invested a large amount of money in the former's territory, but he refused to extract even a copper coin from it.
Please forgive me.
In the land of Amn, there are really few gentlemen like him who uphold justice and kindness.
If you lend a helping hand at this time, you will surely gain their gratitude and friendship."
Ibby Palen briefly introduced the situation of Sir De Arnis.
Just as he described, since the Ronoll family was almost destroyed by the revenge of the wild elf tribe, Sir De Arnis has taken the initiative to take on the responsibility of taking care of Isiah and managing the Ronore family property.
But the problem is that the reason why the Ronoll family became rich in the past was mainly through smuggling, slave trading and other shady black industries.
But with Fashington's death, the leaders at all levels of this black industry chain were either caught or escaped without a trace.
In addition, Sir De Arnis knew nothing about business, so the shop and fleet went bankrupt due to poor management in just a few months.
In the end, there was only a lonely castle left, and a large area of semi-abandoned territory where the tenants had run away and no one was cultivating it.
Just to recruit and hire enough farmers for farming, Sir De Arnis invested the little money he had saved over the years and also borrowed a large amount of foreign debt.
As a result, before the funds could be turned around, two unfortunate things happened in succession that made matters worse.
After figuring out the situation, Zuo Si directly took out a money order for 20,000 gold coins and handed it to his supervisor: "Go to De Arnisburg for me and tell this knight that I am willing to lend him a sum of money. But the conditions are
If one day he dies unexpectedly without leaving a will, I will automatically become the guardian of his daughter, Miss Narya."
"??????"
A series of questions suddenly popped up in Ibi Palen's mind, and he didn't understand what his master was trying to do.
"You don't need to ask too much, just do as you are told. If Sir De Arnis agrees, bring a contract signed by him personally. If you don't agree, forget it. After you get it done, this contract will be kept with you." p>
After saying this, Zuo Si ignored the old manager and released the teleportation magic and disappeared without a trace.
The next second...
He directly crossed a distance of thousands of kilometers and appeared in the room of the Dark Fortress.
The vampire Ximanmeng and the moon elf Ashmi, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately put their hands on their chests and bowed deeply.
The former's eyes showed strong awe, and he took the initiative to say hello: "Long time no see, your distinguished Lord Soth. Thank you very much for accepting our allegiance and giving us an opportunity to serve you."
"Don't be so nervous. You should know best that I am completely different from your teacher Manson and Fzoll Chamberry."
Zuo Si smiled and comforted the person in charge of the dark intelligence network.
Apart from his previous hostile stance, he actually likes this kind of smart person who is evil but always remains elegant.
Because Ximanmeng is one of the very few among the top Zhentarim who do not believe in Bane, the god of tyranny.
Yes!
You read that right!
Manson's disciples actually do not believe in Bane, the god of tyranny, and they are not interested in the so-called finding and cultivating tyrants to make everything in the world obey the will of the great dark lord.
The most important thing is that this guy is always very calm, and he will never be reluctant or greedy when it's time to give up.
"Of course I know.
But the problem is that the existence of some things that are too powerful and dangerous is a huge deterrent to others around them.
It's like standing next to a giant dragon. Even if the dragon is not malicious, most people will still feel awe and fear involuntarily.
You are too powerful, as dazzling and deadly as the sun to a little bat like me who can only live in the dark."
At this moment, Xi Manmeng finally showed off his unique language skills and unparalleled affinity.
You must know that he is one of the very few managers who can make the entire evil Zhentarim not feel disgusted, and seriously obey his instructions and arrangements.
From this alone, it can be seen that Xi Manmeng is definitely a very powerful psychological master, and is very good at figuring out and manipulating other people's thinking, and can unknowingly make two or more people who have conflicts with each other give up temporarily.
Hatred works hand in hand.
"You are good at talking."
Zuo Si commented meaningfully.
Ximanmeng responded quickly and humbly: "Where, I am just stating an obvious fact. In addition, I would like to express my special thanks for the precious gift you gave me. It is so useful that I am now
I don’t know how to live without it.”
While speaking, the vampire archmage took out the Shuoyou mobile terminal, with naked and undisguised love in his eyes.
Since he got this thing, he has to spend at least eight hours a day with it.
Whether it is sorting out complicated information, learning and researching magic, or deciphering the texts in some ancient ruins and tombs, mobile terminals can come in handy and make the original tedious work simpler.
Ximanmeng once tried to decipher the mystery through some magic, but failed without exception.
Even the wish-making technique of the Nine Rings has only obtained a small amount of insignificant information, and it is impossible to judge its production and working principle.
It is precisely because of this that he feels that the Shuoyou Mobile Terminal should be a top-notch magic item that reaches at least the legendary level.
Especially the help from the mage is immeasurable.
Its extremely powerful shooting and storage capabilities can even directly replace traditional spell books, containing all known magic and carrying it with you.
Its map drawing function is many times better than any secret agent.
In Xi Manmeng's view, Zuo Si's willingness to give himself and Ashmi such a precious treasure is proof of his sincere acceptance.
He didn't realize at all that the moon elf lover had secretly betrayed him, and staged a mission-impossible drama.
As for the Shuoyou mobile terminal, it was Zuo Si’s secret trick used to monitor the two of them.
To be exact, Zuo Si never trusted either of them from beginning to end.
As long as you don't trust anyone, you will never be betrayed.
In this regard, Zuo Si has been infinitely close to or even surpassed most of the devils in hell.
Even Asmodeus never saw anything wrong with him continuing to remain in human form.
Because the latter looks at the inside, the essence of the soul, rather than the superficial appearance.
Appreciating the way Xi Manmeng was slowly being seduced and deeply immersed in Shuoyou's mobile terminal without knowing anything about it, Zuo Si couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly, and said with a half-smile: "Just like it. Remember, I am here today
I can give it to you, and when you work poorly or rebel, you can also take it back with interest."
"Understood! I swear that I will work hard and completely make the Zhentarim's dark intelligence network work for you."
After hearing that the mobile terminal might be confiscated, Xi Manmeng's mood became obviously a little nervous, and her grip even became extra forceful.
And all of this was recorded by the big eyes behind the terminal camera.
After so many days, it has already mastered all of Xi Manmeng’s behaviors, habits and thinking patterns.
It is precisely because of this that the latter feel that Shuoyou mobile terminal is very easy to use and considerate, and can help them do almost everything easily, thus creating a deeper dependence.
As this kind of spiritual infection and induction becomes more and more profound, Ximanmeng will gradually become a slave controlled by mobile terminals in a year or two at most.
At that time, you only need to display some information and use inertial thinking to guide them to think in a specific direction, and you will naturally achieve the purpose of controlling behavior.
The most important thing is that all this is a subtle influence, not a magical effect, so it is almost difficult to detect.
"Very good, then tell me first what's going on at Zhentil Fort recently."
Zuo Si didn't talk nonsense and stated the source directly.
He urgently needs to know what happened over there, but he doesn't dare to use prophecy magic for fear of accidentally alerting the madman Cyric.
After all, Cyric is "crazy" now, but he can actually write medical records and issue leave notes. He is really crazy on a spiritual level.
And he completely believes that he is the only true god in this world, and that all other gods are false gods, even the god of gods, Io, is no exception.
Therefore, it is not surprising no matter what kind of crazy behavior he does before returning to normal.
Zuo Si didn't want to cast a detection spell with his front foot, and Cyric would come looking for trouble with his back foot.
Ximanmeng obviously didn't know what was going on in his mind, so he answered to himself: "Zhentil Fort has completely entered a state of alert.
My teacher Mansong has led the mages to arrange sacrificial arrays in every corner of the city.
Now, all they have to do is wait for those crazy believers of the Church of the Dark Sun to enter, and they will start immediately, killing thousands of people instantly and sacrificing their souls to the dead god of tyranny, Bane.
Forzoel Chamberry has secretly contacted churches in various places and is preparing to hold a religious ceremony to commemorate Ben at the same time as the sacrifice.
And Bane’s Son of God is the carrier and the final sacrifice.
If the plan goes well, when those wailing souls are thrown to the throne of the Dark Lord, the dead Bane will return at the call of the believers.
At that time, no matter what back-ups Dark Sun has, they will face the wrath of the God of Tyranny.
As for those crazy believers of the Church of the Dark Sun, they are still destroying everything that can be destroyed along the way.
According to the spies' report, the evil book you mentioned is in the hands of one of them."
"Is it finally going to start? Just thinking about it makes people feel excited and excited." Zuo Si touched his chin and showed an expectant smile.
He was curious, if the grumpy Bane discovered that Cyric was poaching him after he was resurrected, would he be furious and slap him away?
The former, as an evil and lawful god, inherently dislikes the troublemakers of the chaotic camp.
Maybe the two gods will become everlasting enemies because of this.
"Yes!
Regardless of whether the resurrection of Bane, the god of tyranny, is successful or not, you can use this opportunity to kill a large number of followers of the Dark Sun and weaken his power and influence.
In addition, you can also kill the mentor completely with the help of Fuzor Chamberry.
As far as I know, the tyrant of the Moon Sea has mastered several locations where Mansoon hides his clones.
As long as you move quickly enough, even if one or two escape by chance, nothing will happen in a short time."
When saying these words, Xi Manmeng's tone was full of emotion.
Because just a few years ago, he regarded his mentor Manson as a strong man who could not be easily threatened by anyone.
But who knew that a few years later, Mansong would turn from a hunter to a prey, and he would not even dare to leave his nest easily.
"Humph!"
Zuo Si sneered and said in a cruel and cold tone: "When I kill Mansong and capture this guy's soul, I will combine it with his skull to make a powerful artifact.
To be precise, it is an extremely evil Horcrux, and its name is Manson's Skull.
At that time, his soul will endure pain and despair that ordinary people cannot imagine for eternity.
And this pain and despair will provide the Horcrux holder with massive magical power.
I never mind using the most brutal and vicious means to deal with my enemies."
"The mentor's choice to be your enemy was the biggest mistake he made in his life. Please allow me to wish you in advance that you will get what you want."
After hearing what he said before, Xi Manmeng suddenly felt chilled all over, and he didn't even dare to raise his head and look into Zuo Si's twinkling eyes.
Although he felt that his evil tendencies were increasing exponentially after becoming a vampire.
But compared with the terrifying young man in front of me, it is still far behind.
Not to mention anything else, just using the souls and skulls of living people to make Horcruxes is beyond his reach.
It's not that Ximanmeng doesn't want to, but that he doesn't have the relevant profound knowledge and a high enough level of spellcasting, so he is really powerless.
"Keep an eye on Zhentil Fort for me. Once the two sides start a war, notify me as soon as possible no matter what method is used."
After saying these words, Zuo Si disappeared on the spot the next second without saying a word to Ashmi, the moon elf who volunteered to become "Mission: Impossible".
After he left, Xi Manmeng wiped the non-existent sweat on his forehead, smiled bitterly and cursed in a low voice: "Damn it! This suffocating sense of oppression is simply terrible. Under the new owner's control,
In front of me, I feel like my life doesn’t even belong to me.”
"But at least he is generous enough to give us the greatest benefit, isn't he?" Ashmi reached out and gently stroked her lover's cheek to comfort her.
"Yes!
Apart from being too powerful and full of oppression, Soth is indeed a good person to be loyal to.
At least as far as I know, there is no precedent for him abandoning his subordinates without any reason.
