Chapter 44 Cooperation

Sophia looked cautiously into Zhang Cheng's eyes, as if judging whether what she had just said was a simple verbal intimidation, or whether it was possible to really put it into action.

After a full minute, she suddenly burst out laughing, and teased as she laughed, "Wow! Bullying a weak woman is not in line with your status as a noble mage." ”

"First, you're not a weak woman, but a dangerous syndicate assassin, and second, I'm a mage, but I've never felt noble, and I don't mind using extraordinary means as long as I can achieve my goals. Now choose whether to be my friend or my enemy?" With that, Zhang Cheng leaned forward slightly, holding the reins tightly with one hand, and posed as if he might suddenly attack at any time.

Although he didn't plan to be really rude, he didn't mind teaching the other party a little lesson if he didn't know each other.

You must know that the reward for the task "New Plague" is too tempting, tempting enough for him to temporarily take things like moral conscience to feed dogs, and even do some crazy things.

"I have always been your friend, and if you want, our relationship can go further, like lovers or close allies. The female assassin licked her lips. Responded suggestively.

Zhang Cheng smiled disappreciatively, put away his staff, and asked in a slightly playful tone: "Since we are friends, then please explain, why are you here, could it be that the syndicate has degenerated to the point of starting to cooperate with the undead?"

"Cooperation, what are you kidding? The Forsaken uprooted two watchtowers under my control in a few days!As the steward of Dunhold Castle, I have to figure out what the hell they're up to, or I won't even be able to sleep. ”

At the mention of the Forsaken, Sophia immediately became furious, her tone filled with undisguised disgust and hatred.

After all, she had just taken over, and she didn't even have time to grasp the power, so she made such a big mess, so it's no wonder that she can be in a good mood.

"Oh, the guard tower you occupy has been pulled out?" Zhang Cheng suddenly understood something, and a gloating expression appeared on his face.

Apparently, the Forsaken had cleared all potential threats along the way in order to keep the new plague a secret, and the Syndicate was just unlucky enough to be implicated.

Sophia rolled her eyes angrily: "Yes, not only did she uproot the watchtower, but she also killed all the people in the watchtower." I tracked them down for three days and three days, and it turned out that the guys were targeting a farm town that had no value. I don't understand, with their strength, they are capable of destroying rudimentary fortifications in a matter of hours, but they have chosen to use the slowest way. ”

"No, you don't understand, the undead aren't just here to destroy the town, they're trying to test the power of some new magical plague. See the mutated animals, the contaminated wheat fields and the land? they've developed something more terrifying than the Scourge Corps. I think you and I should work together to face a common threat in this matter. After all, we are all living people, no matter what. ”

In order to gain the trust of the other party, Zhang Cheng revealed a little bit of information about the plague.

Anyway, it won't be long before all the intelligent races of Azeroth will know about the Forsaken's research on the plague, and he's just getting a little bit ahead of time.

"A new plague of magic? Damn! Are these guys crazy?"

The female assassin shuddered at the thought of the horrific scene when the undead scourge erupted.

She will never forget the scene when she hid under the bed in a country cottage and watched her biological father being torn to pieces by ghouls.

I can't forget how the thriving farm was turned into a slaughterhouse for skeletons, ghosts, and crypt demons......

Zhang Cheng pretended to be helpless and spread his hands and explained: "I don't know if they are crazy or not, but I know that Archmage Dalaran has begun to pay attention to this matter, and I led the team here to obtain information about the plague." As far as I know, one of the Forsaken is an organization called the Royal Apothecary Society, which specializes in the research and development of all kinds of terrible toxins and plagues, and one of them is in the barracks, taking advantage of the scuffle and escaping with the materials just now. Take me to him, and I promise to give you a satisfactory return. ”

"Satisfactory return?" Sophia raised her sharp chin slightly, and her eyes were full of **.

"Yes, as long as you don't cross my line. Zhang Cheng nodded thoughtlessly.

The strong desire for a small bottle of sunwell well water makes him willing to pay some price for it, even if it is himself.

In any case, when it comes to gender issues, as a man, he will certainly not be the one who suffers.

Sophia, who was controlled by the charm spell, immediately seemed to be stimulated by some kind of stimulation, and a seductive red tide appeared on her face, followed by a low moan that she couldn't help but moan, "Ahh ”

"As you wish, charming lady. Zhang Cheng bent down and stretched out his left hand.

Without saying a word, the female assassin turned over and jumped on the horse, snatched the reins, and said with a smile: "Hold me tight, don't fall off the horse." ”

The words just fell!

She tightened her legs sharply, urging her horse to gallop eastward.

Due to the suddenness of the relationship, Zhang Cheng was almost shaken off the horse, and hurriedly hugged the other party's slender waist.

In this way, the two clinged to each other, feeling the temperature and taste of each other, coupled with the friction caused by the bumps on the horse's back, it was inevitable that there would be a little physiological reaction, and the atmosphere slowly became ambiguous.

Speeding along the country road, it didn't take long for me to leave the polluted land.

Zhang Cheng, who has never had a good sense of direction, asked loudly while enjoying the stimulation brought by friction: "Where are you taking me?"

"Of course, the watchtower at the intersection of Tallinn Mill and South Sea Town. I'm willing to bet that undead apothecary will definitely flee to Tarummere, so all we have to do is take a detour to intercept him first. Sophia explained without looking back.

Although her tone was very flat, if you looked closely, you could see that her breathing was much shorter than usual.

"Well, listen to you. ”

Zhang Cheng understood that it was indeed a bit difficult to find a person in a hilly area full of woods and grass. Instead of looking blindly, it is better to block the other party's inevitable path.

After more than three hours of galloping, the two finally came to a dilapidated masonry watchtower before the horses were tired.

A masked man who was burying the corpse immediately put down the shovel in his hand, ran over quickly, and saluted respectfully: "Madam, you are finally back." How's it going, have you caught up with those damn undead?"

"Well, caught up. Don't ask so much, light a beacon fire for me at once, and have all the people in the watchtower go out to find a lone undead apothecary for me. Remember, signal as soon as you spot the target, don't kill him, I'm going to live. Sophia rolled over and jumped off her horse and quickly gave the order.

"Yes, I'll go and light the beacon fire right away!" the masked man nodded vigorously and ran to the top of the tower.

After about two or three minutes, a plume of smoke slowly rose and could be clearly seen even from a few kilometers away......
