Chapter 158: Preliminary Inference
"Interesting...... This is blood magic?!" Zhang Cheng muttered quietly in an uncertain tone as he bent down to check on Yu Lun's condition.
I saw that this man, who was still a tough guy just now, was now dying, and the whole person seemed to have been boiled in boiling water, not only the skin showed a strange dark red, but also the surface was densely covered with blisters, the largest of which was the size of a palm, and it was full of shocking pus and blood.
Of course, this is not the most terrifying, the most terrifying thing is that his mouth and internal organs were also severely burned by unknown forces, constantly emitting the aroma of roasted meat.
By the standards of modern medicine, he is in a state where the death penalty can be pronounced, and even with the most advanced medical technology, it is unlikely to save his life.
But fortunately, Zhang Cheng is not a doctor, but a mage, a mage who has mastered the art of alchemy.
Without any hesitation at all, he directly took out a bottle of primary healing potion and poured it into the other party's mouth.
After a few seconds, Euron suddenly twitched, and he threw up on the deck, and waited until he had vomited all the contents of his stomach before he raised his head and asked sharply, "Damn, what did you do?!Why does the dragon's horn sound on its own when no one is blowing?"
"Relax, my friend, it's just a trivial test, and even if you explain it, you won't understand it, because it involves profound knowledge and knowledge of different kinds of energy resonance. Alright, give me the Dragonbinder, and then we can start talking about the alliance. Zhang Cheng deliberately pretended to be arrogant and urged.
After a brief observation, he was almost certain that the uniquely shaped horn in front of him was an out-and-out powerful magical item, powerful enough to control all the dragons of the entire Song of Ice and Fire.
It's no wonder that Valyria dared to let thousands of wild dragons hover over the city without fearing that they would attack the city's inhabitants or poultry or livestock on a whim.
The only downside is that blowing the dragon's horn comes at an unimaginable cost, and the person who uses it must have the hot dragon's blood flowing through their bodies.
Obviously, the temperature of dragon blood is far more than the body temperature of normal humans by dozens of times, so even the blink of an eye can cause huge burns.
As for the never-before-seen runes on the horn, further research and decipherment are needed to figure out what they do.
In fact, with the help of this huge horn, Zhang Cheng can already deduce how far the Valyrian civilization has gone in terms of magic, although it is not yet comparable to the magic kingdom of Azeroth, Dalaran, but he doesn't want to be so unbearable now, and in many places magic has become something that only exists in legends.
What's even more ridiculous is that almost all people who wield magical powers, instead of trying to figure out the source of their powers, are obsessed with idiotic prophecies.
Of all the magic systems, predicting the future is the least reliable and the most susceptible to all kinds of uncertainties.
Rather than trying to interpret what the future will happen through obscure phenomena and images, it is better to strive to improve yourself and deal with danger and difficulties with the strongest side.
"Here you go?hahahaha!Dream!I've got control of your dragon now!Die!bastard!Kill him for me!"Euron smirked, raised the dragon's horn, and shouted a command at the dragon prostrate on the deck.
Kulo Kerba stared innocently at his eyes, as if he were looking at an idiot with abnormal nerves.
Although the "Dragon Binder" restricts its movements, it cannot control its will, but due to the power of magic, it cannot attack the opponent.
"Have you had enough? Give it to me if you've had enough. Didn't your parents teach you to never try to control a power you don't understand?" Zhang Cheng teased with a playful face.
As the name suggests, the real role of the "dragon binder" is to bind the dragons and force them into submission with the help of external forces, just as humans use food to make dogs respond to commands and nose rings to tame cattle farming, rather than directly controlling their minds.
This means that a person using a horn can incapacitate dragons or even kill them, but they cannot allow them to attack their owners involuntarily.
In addition, Zhang Cheng also signed a permanent magic contract with Kulo Kirba, and as long as this contract is not terminated, he will never have to worry about being attacked by his own dragon.
However, it is clear that Euron Greyjoy misunderstood the power of the Dragon's Horn and believed that it could force the dragon to obey his will, and the scene was in a very awkward situation.
The bold Eric forced a smile and suggested in a rather gloating tone, "My lord, I think this guy should be taught a lesson, at least hang on the mast for a few days." Believe me, with the current level of sunshine, he will kneel down like a dog to add your boots and ask for your forgiveness in two days at most. ”
Zhang Cheng hesitated slightly, and quickly shook his head with a smile: "Sounds good!, but the problem is, I still need this guy to complete some things that are not convenient to shoot directly." You have to understand that even if the nobles want to eliminate each other immediately, they have to follow certain rules. Of course, if you can find a replacement, I wouldn't mind following your suggestion to deal with him. ”
"Replacement?" Eric was stunned for a moment, then pointed to the captain of another huge battleship in the distance and asked, "What do you think of that guy?" If I'm not mistaken, his name is Victarion Greyjoy, the younger brother of Baron and Euron. ”
Following the direction of his finger, Zhang Cheng soon saw a mighty man armed with a giant axe, wearing heavy armor, and wearing a strange helmet on his head.
At the same time, the man was nervously watching the movements on the Tranquility.
After staring at each other for four or five seconds, Zhang Cheng quickly turned around and cut off Yu Lun's head with a sword.
Moment!
The dazzling blood flew up more than a meter like a fountain, followed by the headless corpse and fell to the deck with a thud.
Because the whole process happened so quickly, everyone didn't have time to react, especially the sailors on deck who had their tongues pulled out, all showed expressions of disbelief.
I guess they couldn't have dreamed that their fierce, brutal, and crazy captain would be killed so easily.
"I'm sorry, my friend, you're no longer useful......" Zhang Cheng took out his handkerchief and wiped the blood from his sword, muttering to Yo Lun, who had just been devoured by the Soul Detention Emissary.
Less than half a minute after Euron's death, the power that bound Kulo Kerba suddenly disappeared, and it quickly flapped its wings and returned to the endless blue sky after regaining its freedom.
