Chapter 917: I have more chess pieces in my hands than you can imagine

"Congratulations! How's it like to be Lord of Neverwinter?" Jesse, dressed in a red gown, glanced at the nobles and wealthy merchants in the hall celebrating their victory.

As for the poor commoners, like the lower strata of all worlds, they were excluded from the scope of this feast of alternating powers from the beginning.

Because no matter which interest group becomes the ruler, the status of ordinary people as an exploited class will never change.

"Success? no! My plan has just begun! As for the identity of this Lord of Neverwinter, it is only a tool for me to achieve my goals. Zhang Cheng explained with a chuckle.

There is no doubt that for a master of conspiracy like him, starting a rebellion in tiny Neverwinter is easier than eating and drinking.

What's more, the Lord of Nasir is not Erasdror of Silvermoon City, who not only possesses unparalleled powerful spellcasting abilities and charisma, but is also very intelligent enough to deal with all sorts of dastardly methods.

In fact, Lord Nasir was not a worthy ruler, he was only fortunate to have the support of the Church of Tyre, the god of justice, and Waterdeep needed a hardcore ally to block Luskan's expansion. I =

There is not enough political wisdom!

Lack of a tough ruling hand!

There is no personal charisma enough to convince the public!

Even the strong physique and fighting skills that were honed in the original adventure are constantly regressing with age!

Everything proves that this old man is not worthy of being Zhang Cheng's opponent at all.

The gap between the two is like a small dirt bag on the side of the road and Mount Everest, there is no comparison at all, and failure is simply a normal result, and there is nothing to make a fuss about.

"What are you going to do next?, based on the information I've got, Luskan in the north seems to have sensed something and is planning an attack on Neverwinter, so you'd better be prepared. Jesse couldn't help but tell the bad news he had just gotten.

She had now become a veritable underground queen of the beggar's nest, and she did not want any large-scale upheaval that would cause her to lose her current status.

"Oh, is Luskan finally taking action?" the corners of Zhang Cheng's mouth curled slightly, revealing a playful smile.

The last time he came to this world as a dragon, he left a very rich secondary product for Luskan.

Whether it's the group of spellcasters who have been integrated and renamed the "Arcane Light", and the large number of mages who have transformed into dragons, or the berserk army of Gar who have drunk the blood of the Abyss Lords, it is enough to set off a terrible storm in the Northlands.

However, Jesse obviously didn't know this, and reminded with a solemn face: "Don't underestimate Luskan! They are not the same as before! Even the Silver Moon Alliance and the Harpist Alliance dare not easily approach the sphere of influence controlled by Luscan." With the military power of Neverwinter, it is simply impossible to fight Luskan alone, we need allies, very, very strong allies. ”

"Hahahaha! No, dear. On the contrary, Ruskan is our ally. Zhang Cheng laughed uncontrollably as he casually took out a gold coin from his bosom and injected a unique hybrid energy into it.

It didn't take long for the coin to take on a strange pattern like dragon scales.

He shoved the coin directly to Jesse and said meaningfully, "Send someone to give this thing to Valindra." ”

"Valindra, leader of the arcane light!" Jesse's eyes widened in disbelief.

"That's right, do you think the only chess pieces I have in front of me? No, I have more chess pieces in my hands than you think. With that, Zhang Cheng took a sip of the finest wine from his glass, and his only intact eyes were as calm and deep as a lake.

"Who the hell are you?" Jesse finally couldn't help but ask this question that had been hidden in his heart for a long time.

Although she had long realized that this boy who was full of weirdness was definitely not the cowering pickpocket Benny, she never expected that the other party would still have a connection with Lu Sikan's high-level management.

"Does it matter who I am?" Zhang Cheng put down the cup and shook his head with a smile. "No, it doesn't matter at all. You just need to know to do your part well to get unexpected rewards, and you don't need to know much about the rest. Also, don't try to speculate about my actions from a mortal perspective. Power, money, honor, and other things that ordinary people dream of getting are not fundamentally different from garbage in my eyes. ”

When Jesse heard this, he subconsciously frowned: "So what do you want?"

"Sorry, what I want is not easy to put into words. What's more, even if you say it, you may not understand it. Alright, I guess we'll end our conversation for now, and give Valindra the coins for me as soon as possible. If I'm not mistaken, Lord Nasir will not be willing to lose, and Waterdeep does not want to lose a bridgehead against Luskan, and in the end, it will have to speak with strength. I plan to play a big show with Lu Sikan, annihilate the reinforcements sent by Waterdeep, and teach them a memorable lesson. ”

When he said this, Zhang Cheng made no secret of his malice towards Deep Water City.

He planned to use a terrible massacre to bleed the most powerful overlord on the west coast of the Faren continent, and the other party in the province always liked to meddle when they were full.

"Understood!" Jesse stroked his chest with one hand and bowed slightly, then turned and disappeared into the crowd.

As soon as she left with her front feet, a dark figure came out of the corner and asked in a low voice, "Are you sure that this Tieflin will not betray and leave such an important matter to her?"

"No, she won't, because she doesn't have that guts. How about it, have you found any traces of those reptiles?" asked Zhang Cheng without looking back.

"There's already a clue, but I'm a little curious, how did you find out about their activities being so secret?" the dark shadow's tone revealed intense confusion and puzzlement.

"If I said I had the ability to foresee the future, would you believe it?"

"I don't know, but my gut tells me you're not lying. ”

"Then trust your instincts. You'd better be careful, the Creator Race is not an easy thing to deal with, and their magical power is both ancient and powerful, and it is simply not comparable to ordinary mages. ”

"I'm not an idiot! I don't fight enemies easily! I'm eyes and ears in the dark, and I only record what I see and hear. ”
