People who have not experienced the constant harassment of the sabotage war will never understand the feeling of being terrified all the time, let alone how terrible it is to be physically and mentally tortured in this state.

In particular, Waterdeep's path to Neverwinter has a long stretch of land through a narrow strip of land called the Sword Mountains, as well as a swamp of the dead filled with a lot of negative energy, which provides a natural cover for a surprise attack.

In addition, the half-orc wolf cavalry is not a good camp of order, in order to disrupt the mages who monitor their every move through magic, they even looted dozens of surrounding villages, gathering the villagers together and driving them in the direction where the coalition forces are.

If the opponent is very vigilant and reacts in time, then they will choose to abandon the attack, retract and wait for the next opportunity.

But if the adversary did not react, they would use these innocent peasants to break up the ranks and launch a fierce attack on the coalition soldiers, setting fire to the wagons full of grain and baggage with scorching glue.

In this way, the march, which was originally less than five days, was forced to walk for half a month, and every soldier was exhausted, and the morale basically fell to the freezing point.

The treacherous and cunning Luskan lost just over 400 orc wolf cavalry to the enemy before the battle began, and the mages who accompanied him were unable to get enough sleep because they needed to monitor their surroundings with magic twenty-four hours a day.

Looking at these poor creatures who had set up camp five kilometers outside of Neverwinter, Zhang Cheng stood on the city wall and pursed the corners of his mouth and teased in a playful tone: "Unbelievable! Should I admire the courage of the Deepwater City coalition forces, or should I laugh at their stupidity and ignorance? With their current state, I am afraid that they will not be able to withstand even a round of fierce attacks, and they will collapse on their own first." ”

"No, my master, you underestimate the resilience of this group of people who claim to be righteous and kind. It doesn't matter if morale is low, as long as there are enough priests, mages, and bards, a coward can be turned into a warrior in a matter of minutes. In addition, it is said that the mage group of Waterdeep City has also been dispatched, and they are the real threat. Valindra gently stroked her beloved staff, her eyes bursting with fear.

As the two places with the highest concentration of high-level mages in the entire Northlands, Waterdeep and Silvermoon have always been the biggest enemies of the original Arcane Brotherhood.

It is precisely because of their strong suppression that Luskan's expansion plans will fail again and again.

But today, the Arcane Light, re-established from the Arcane Brotherhood's corpses, will have the opportunity to wreak havoc on the mages of Waterdeep, letting the world know that the Arcane Light is the most powerful spellcaster organization in the Northlands.

"Don't worry, my dear, be patient. Before the show begins, we have one more hors d'oeuvres, which is to go to the enemy's barracks and conclude an alliance in person. ”

As he said this, Zhang Cheng didn't forget to turn around and glance at Erebes, who was standing not far away, and the shapeshifter officers behind her.

In order to confuse the enemy, this woman who exudes a shocking evil aura has changed into a new silver-white armor, and under the infusion of divine energy, it gives people a feeling that is both holy and holy.

Unless someone suddenly uses magic or magic like Detect Faction, there is absolutely no one to associate it with evil.

But Erebeth obviously didn't like these divine energies that made her feel disgusting at all, and subconsciously frowned, and asked in a tone of uncertainty that "Are you sure you want me to take the army to join the forces of the Waterdeep Alliance, and then conclude an alliance?"

Zhang Cheng smiled and nodded: "Of course, why not? Think about it, when those poor guys tried their best to think that they could win, but as a result, the closest allies behind them suddenly turned against each other and launched a fatal blow from behind, that kind of psychological blow is absolutely incomparable to any frontal suppression." I need to make Waterdeep collapse and make those soldiers feel visceral fear. Only then will their souls be in great pain and despair after death. Go ahead, go and finish this for me, and the entire citizens of Neverwinter will be yours, whether you want to slaughter the city or make them pay for what they've done. ”

"See! it's a deal, right?" Erebeth raised his chin slightly, his eyes still full of anger and hatred.

"Yes, it's a deal. Zhang Cheng replied in the affirmative without thinking.

"Deal! I'll do what you command. ”

Without saying a word, Erebeth turned around and took two thousand five hundred Neverwinter soldiers controlled by the shapeshifters, opened the city gates and marched towards the Deepwater coalition camp.

Looking at the delighted expressions on the faces of the completely unaware soldiers, Varindra suddenly spoke, "Are you sure those soldiers will obey orders and attack from behind the backs of their close allies for many years?"

"It doesn't matter if they obey orders or not! as long as Erebeth and the Transfigur officers attack, the Coalition soldiers will believe it. When the time comes, whether ordinary soldiers want to or not, they will become the object of coercion, even if they want not to be killed, they will desperately attack the allies around them. On the battlefield, soldiers' emotions are often prone to fall into a state of excessive excitement, and any bit of distrust will be infinitely amplified, and eventually form a herd effect. And most importantly, don't you think it's fun to form an alliance with your own enemies?"

As usual, Zhang Cheng's plan is dark and wicked, constantly touching the bottom line of human nature and trying to expose the hypocrisy of those who are good.

For no reason!

No reason!

There is no purpose even more!

The reason why he did this was because he felt that the world should be like this, instead of shouting ridiculous slogans such as equality, freedom, justice, and democracy, while desperately practicing double standards in secret.

How can a race that is divided into three, six, nine, and so on according to their genes from birth, in terms of intellectual development and physical fitness, have any real equality.

Even without the intervention of acquired factors, people are inherently unequal.

As ironic as it sounds, that's the hard truth.

What many people think of as social progress is actually a rebellion against the natural law of survival of the fittest by human beings using their own wisdom, and then proving that they are the spirit of all things, a special existence higher than most animals.

But what they don't notice is that human beings are rebellious against the laws of nature on the surface, but in fact they are tasting the consequences of rebellion against the laws of nature.

For example, after a well-established welfare system is established, the more highly educated people tend to be reluctant to have offspring, because they know how much time, money and energy it takes to raise a good offspring. On the contrary, those who are barely educated are desperately trying to have children, consuming a lot of social resources for no reason, forming a terrible phenomenon of bad money driving out good money......
