"Hehe, I like your directness. But first, I have to correct the idea that I intended to destroy the Arcane Brotherhood from the beginning, so there is no such thing as betrayal. Zhang Chengyi made his position clear.

In his plans, there was not even a plan to keep the name of the Arcane Brotherhood.

The reason is simple, this "notorious" group of spellcasters has not made the slightest good impression on the world, and it is either a lame expansion plan or full of bloody infighting.

The only thing to praise is the well-functioning apprenticeship system, as well as the vast and well-developed infrastructure within the Mage Tower.

Zhang Cheng intends to get rid of all the upper echelons of the Arcane Brotherhood, no matter how high their spellcasting level and skill, and then promote a group of mages who have become dragonmen to help him re-establish a more loyal and pure spellcaster organization.

In this way, not only will the notoriety of the Arcane Brotherhood be shaken off, but the intense vigilance and hostility of the surrounding towns will also be removed.

Of course, this will only last for a very short time, and soon they will find that the reborn Luskan is stronger, more terrifying, and more invincible than before.

Marco Hubbell didn't understand this yet, and asked with a look of surprise on his face, "You're going to destroy the Arcane Brotherhood?"

"That's right, after this stop, I'm going to get rid of all the ambitious high-ups and start a new organization focused on magical research. At the same time, Luskan will make a series of policy adjustments, when the chaos will cease and become livable. Zhang Cheng replied without thinking.

"I see!Your goal is to replace the Arcane Brotherhood and become the supreme ruler of Luskan!" Lord Nasir's eyes widened in disbelief.

As a leader who has long dealt with complex political situations, he finally realizes that this war is not at all the upheaval caused by the evil artifact - the shattered magic crystal as many people imagined, but the dragon in front of him secretly planned everything.

For a moment, he was a little unsure whether it would be a wise choice to let the other party become the new ruler of Luskan.

After all, the Arcane Brotherhood, while often making dangerous moves, never really harmed Neverwinter's core interests, and most of the time they spent their time fighting among themselves.

"Relax, honorable Lord Nasir. I pledge that after taking control of Luskan, not only will I not continue the original policy of expansion, but will also actively promote trade links in the surrounding area, and even restrain pirates from looting passing merchant ships, as long as they are willing to surrender a tenth of the value of their goods to obtain security. Zhang Cheng curled the corners of his mouth and gave a promise quietly.

As a modern man, he understands the importance and huge profits of maritime trade better than any other country or power in the world.

In the past, Luskan only regarded piracy as an important means of weakening the enemy, completely ignoring the importance of establishing order in this sea.

And he will take advantage of the annihilation of the fleets of Neverwinter and Deep Water City to establish absolute authority and order in the northern waters of Sword Bay, so that every merchant ship will abide by the rules he has set.

Over time, the trade in this area will be completely controlled by Luscan, unwittingly draining the potential of Waterdeep and Winterfall.

"Safety?!" Lord Nasir's eyes lit up slightly.

For a ruler who had recently lost all his ships, there was nothing more exciting than hearing the news.

Although handing over a tenth of the value of the goods would be painful for the merchants, it was still profitable, and the trade would bring in tax revenues and ease the depleted vaults of Neverwinter during the war.

Seeing that a big fish bit the bait he released, Zhang Cheng's eyes flashed with a hint of mockery that was not easy to detect, and he nodded seriously: "Yes." As long as they hand over a tenth of the value of their goods, they don't have to worry about being looted in the waters north of Waterdeep. And in the event of a looting, I will also help them recover their lost goods. This sea has been chaotic for too long, and it's time for order to come. ”

"Great idea! I'm rooting for you on behalf of Waterdeep. Marco chimed in.

"Thank you! Now that we are all beginning to understand each other's thoughts and there is no big conflict of interest, can we discuss how to solve the Delta Gall?" Zhang Cheng suddenly turned the topic to the battlefield that exuded a strong smell of blood.

After a period of scuffle, there was no such thing as a formation anymore, and the warring sides were all mixed together, frantically attacking every visible enemy around them.

Due to the large number of monster legions on the Luskan side, the combined forces of Waterdeep and Neverfall are at a disadvantage, although there are still some large magical structures that have not been put into the battlefield, and the Luskan side has not been invested either.

"Tell me, what do you want us to do?" said Marco Hubbell, skimming through the boring temptation to get straight to the point.

"It's easy! Pretend to be defeated and retreat behind the walls. With a few hours to go into the night, Delta has almost exhausted the power of the Shattered Crystal today, so tonight is the best time to strike a fatal blow. At three o'clock in the morning, assemble a team of the best and we'll help you bypass the magic alarm and join forces to assassinate Delta. As soon as the holder of the Shattered Shard is dead, his army of monsters will quickly flee......"

Zhang Cheng unhurriedly stated his plan, while secretly paying attention to the other party's reaction, especially Marco's.

Although the powerful mage, who claimed to be Kelburn's assistant and friend, never showed the slightest hostility, he still felt very suspicious, as if there was a pair of eyes in the darkness that were always watching him.

"Very good plan, we agreed. Marco pondered for a moment, and immediately replied in the affirmative.

"Agreed?!"

Zhang Cheng didn't expect the other party to agree so happily, he didn't bargain, and he didn't ask for specific details.

Abnormal!

It's so suspicious!

He couldn't help but wonder if there was some conspiracy involved.

"Yes, please hurry back and prepare, and let's join forces tonight to end this senseless war. With that, Marco turned and gestured to the herald.

The latter understood and sounded the horn with great force.

Moment!

The mage group began to chant incantations with their hands raised in the air, and in a few moments, an overwhelming array of magical missiles rained down from the sky, striking Luskan soldiers and monster legions in a storm.

The Coalition soldiers quickly retreated behind the walls of Neverwinter, giving the enemy no time to pursue......
