Chapter 421 Death of Mansong(1/5)
There is no doubt that the artifact given by Bane, the "Tyrant Three-piece Set", is mainly to help the wearer maintain his rule and create a condescending deterrent to his subordinates and the army, rather than to greatly enhance personal strength.

In particular, the aura generated by the crown can subtly plant the seeds of fear in people's hearts, making them afraid to make even the slightest act of resistance throughout their lives.
For Zuo Si, the only thing that can really be used is [Tyrant Iron Fist], which allows all forms of attacks to automatically reach the theoretical maximum limit.
As the name suggests, this thing is a glove that can be worn on the left hand. It is made of an unknown black metal, but it will not affect the release of arcane magic like other metal products.
At the same time, when clenching your fist to attack, it can also be regarded as a 5 magic weapon, and the "heavy hit" effect will be automatically triggered.
Obviously, this black metal glove is actually a replica of the [Dark Hand of Bane] worn by the God of Tyranny, or it can be called "the other one".
After all, two pieces together make a complete pair of gloves.
In comparison, [Tyrant's Scepter]'s effect of permanently controlling others and its own high-level magic can only be regarded as better than nothing.
On the one hand, as a planeswalker, if Zuo Si wants the other party to be 100% obedient and loyal to him, then he can just make it into a summoned creature card. There is no need to use the control ability of [Tyrant's Scepter].
And the fact that it can be released by a wish or miracle after being controlled is also a small hidden danger.
On the other hand, he learned serious advanced swordsmanship from his new teacher, Sorin Markov, and was completely unaccustomed to weapons such as scepters, scepters, and maces.
Even [Talona's Favor] has been transformed into the form of a sword.
Therefore, if it is to be used in battle, Zuo Si will definitely use the ability of his creator profession to first turn it into the form of a sword instead of the bulky scepter it is now.
As for the additional [Death Gaze] after wearing the Tyrant three-piece set, its general effect is very similar to the seven-ring spell [Finger of Death].
It's just that the judgment has changed from a "Fortitude" saving throw related to physical attributes to a "Will saving throw" related to perception attributes, and it is a large-scale group effect.
If you fail, you will die instantly. There is absolutely no room for negotiation. Even if you pass, you will suffer damage equivalent to the wearer's perception attribute.
Taking Zuo Si as an example, if the current perception attribute is 40, then the target will suffer 40 points of mental damage at the moment of saving death stare.
For most ordinary people or guys with low professional levels, this glare can basically declare the end of their lives. It is a truly magical skill for clearing out miscellaneous soldiers.
It truly means killing you with my eyes.
When Zuo Si finished confirming all the abilities of the Tyrant's three-piece suit and raised his head to express his gratitude to Ben, he found that the god of tyranny had returned to his country in the "Wasteland of Destruction and Despair", leaving only Fu Zuo.
Er Chambery was still standing under the altar, with complex emotions including awe, jealousy, and fear in his eyes.
There is no doubt that this "Tyrant of the Moon Sea" is experiencing a fierce inner struggle at this moment.
Because he realized that he was no longer the most favored electorate of Bane, the god of tyranny, and he was no longer the most important electorate.
The young man in front of me has undoubtedly replaced him and left him far behind.
Although Ben also gave Fuzor Chamberry a quite generous reward for his persistence in his faith from the Turbulent Years to the present, he still exuded a strong smell of jealousy.
Zuo Si was keenly aware of this, and immediately smiled and comforted: "Relax, my dear friend, you don't need to be so nervous. I will not compete with you for control of the church, let alone interfere with Zhentil Castle.
and the Zhentarim. Once we join forces to eliminate Manzon, they will all belong to you."
"Is this considered charity?"
There was a hint of bitterness in Fuzuoer Chamberry's tone.
As a priest, all his strength, power and status come from the gift of Benn, so there is no way to resist the will of God. There is no second choice except obedience, obedience and obedience.
This is completely different from the fact that the other party can balance the gods with ease and even conduct transactions as equals.
Zuo Si shook his head with a half-smile: "No, of course not.
In my plan, you, Zhentil Keep, and the Zhentarim will play a vital role in the next plan.
If I remember correctly, the Zhentarim forces have carried out a lot of infiltration and control in the West Heartland region east of Baldur's Gate, right?
Now, I want you to cooperate with me in a play and lead the army of Zhentil Keep to launch a full-scale invasion of the area that extends from here to Dragon Lake and Dragon Coast.
At that time, Baldur's Gate will definitely send troops to fight back.
Through a war, I will destroy the original ruling classes of all towns, whether they are nobles or merchants.
In this way, after Baldur's Gate is defeated and calls for help, I can legitimately send troops to defeat you and take over this land, becoming the legal ruler with the support of the war-torn people.
After all, abstract things like identity and happiness need to be clearly felt through sharp contrast.
Just like there always needs to be someone to play the role of evil villain in this world, heroes and adventurers have the meaning of existence.
I believe that after personally experiencing the cruel slavery of Zhentil Castle and the terrible destruction caused by the war, the civilians in the West Heartland region will definitely be very eager to join a powerful country and accept its protection.
Remember, dear Fu Zuoer, the so-called tyranny is never simply the use of violence to suppress all resisters.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
It is a technique of domination, and it is also the control and manipulation of mass psychology.
Only the lowest and most stupid tyrants will use violence to solve problems without restraint.
A wise tyrant will make the people support him from the bottom of his heart, and even become the object of people's memory and remembrance hundreds or even thousands of years after his death.
Historians will write biographies of more than tens of thousands of words;
Poets will sing over and over again the vast territories they conquered and ruled, as well as the epic wars and glorious victories;
Whenever a man hears a story related to it, he will be fascinated and wish he could go back in time and devote himself to his subordinates to build his own legend;
Women will fantasize about starting a vigorous love relationship with them, or even becoming their exclusive lover.
As for the civilians who died to realize the tyrant's ambitions and desires, who will really remember them and care about them?
Making yourself great and generous are the qualities a successful tyrant must possess.
If you can do this, no matter how cold, ruthless, or cruel you are, you will have countless followers and admirers."
"So... you want me to play the bad guy, and you play the hero who defeats the bad guy?"
Fuzoul Chamberry was obviously not a fool, and he immediately realized the calculation behind this operation.
He is very aware of how notorious Zhentil Keep and Zhentarim are in the eyes of those in the outside world who are kind and neutral.
In many places, just by hearing the name, those in power will instantly assume the posture of facing a formidable enemy.
Therefore, if you lead people to directly invade a certain area, it will inevitably trigger fierce resistance from the residents of that area.
Moreover, war and repression will quickly disintegrate the original ruling structure.
At this time, whoever can stand up and drive out the forces of Zhentil Keep and the Zhentarim can become the hero who saves the region, and naturally becomes the legal supreme ruler.
Similar situations have occurred more than once in many places in Faerûn.
Zuo Si asked meaningfully: "Why not?
Don’t you think this is a perfect way to expand the faith of Bane, the god of tyranny?
Zhentil Keep and Zhentarim will continue to maintain their original state, and assume an aggressive invader posture.
Then secretly support those leaders who don't seem so cold, bloodthirsty, and cruel, and let them become invisible tyrants and stand on the stage of power.
After these people come to power, the church can build temples on the land it controls and continue to spread new doctrines, allowing the Dark Lord to successfully complete its transformation.
When the people's cognition, thinking and consciousness begin to change, and they realize that there is actually nothing wrong with being ruled by a powerful, autocratic monarch, Ben will naturally become all capable and ambitious kings, emperors, nobles, etc.
The god shared by the ruling class.
After all, only by abandoning all unnecessary personal feelings, making the most rational judgments entirely from the perspective of interests, and daring to break all rules when necessary and use the most cruel and bloody means to cleanse those vested interest groups that get in the way. Only in this way can we truly govern.
Build a good country and make it prosperous and strong.
And what this requires is precisely dictatorship and tyranny with evil lawful tendencies.
The concentration and dispersion of power is a delicate art.
And you, my friend, are still far from becoming a qualified tyrant..."
After hearing these words, Fuzuoer Qianberry was completely stunned.
Because he had never thought that spreading the teachings and ideas of Bane, the god of tyranny, could actually be done like this.
Especially by fooling the people of a certain area by playing a good guy and a bad guy, and then quietly supporting a potential tyrant to rise to power, changing the perception of the civilians in the area bit by bit, and making them feel sincere.
Recognize Ben’s teachings and ideas.
If used properly, it can completely change the situation in which the church faces hostility and suppression in some areas.
After thinking over and over for several minutes, Fuzoul Chamberry finally raised his head and responded solemnly: "In order to spread the teachings of the great dark monarch, I can cooperate with you. But the problem is, after tonight's turmoil, the killing
